Prettiness and speed are apparently not conflicting requirements:
PRINT 'Dwain.C COLLATE + CROSS APPLY'
SET STATISTICS TIME ON
SELECT @Email=RIGHT(
STUFF(a.email
,CHARINDEX('@',...
My thought question: Have you ever been told that your query runs too fast?
My advice:
INDEXing a poor-performing query is like putting sugar on cat food. Yeah, it probably tastes better but are you sure you want to eat it?
The path of least resistance can be a slippery slope. Take care that fixing your fixes of fixes doesn't snowball and end up costing you more than fixing the root cause would have in the first place.

Boys, boys. If you're going to argue about performance may I interject a new dog into this race?

This should work also:
selectabs(sign(col1)+sign(col2)+sign(col3)+
sign(col4)+sign(col5)) as NegativeCount
sign(col1)+sign(col2)+sign(col3)+
sign(col4)+sign(col5)+5 as PositiveCount
from
MyTable
Have you tested it? You should try:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTable](
[col1] [int] NOT NULL,
[col2] [int] NOT NULL,
[col3]...

Many many thanks SSCommitted.You solved my problem.:-)
While many have suggested that I should be committed, my board handle is actually Dwain.C!
You're welcome anyway.

Many ways. Choose your poison:
DECLARE @T TABLE (IP VARCHAR(30))
INSERT INTO @T
SELECT '102.89.93.101'
UNION ALL SELECT '100.100.10.1'
UNION ALL SELECT '123.94.9.121'
SELECT PARSENAME(IP, 4) + '.' +
PARSENAME(IP, 3)...
