    Please correct me if I have mentioned anything incorrectly.

    Why do you specifically call out AWE on 32 bit SQL on 64 bit OS, but make no mention of it...

    The only columns that query will access are the City and Zip columns, so they're the only columns that can trigger the data type error. While some data types can...

    Yes but mine did not say 0% remaining. Mine said 0% COMPLETE after sitting for about 45 minutes.

    Sure, not all types of fragmentation are equally problematic, but the terms 'internal fragmentation' and 'external fragmentation' are ambiguous enough that if I say 'Internal fragmentation is a major concern',...

    Note that evaluation edition expires after 180 days. If you're going to develop something for the business, but an appropriate SQL license.

    Nope.

    You may want to check that there's no IO subsystem problems.

    You sure the rollback clearly said 0 seconds remaining in the kill? If it was going to cause a long...

  • RE: Multiple Queries-Please Help
