  • RE: Transaction Log Full in Simple Recovery mode

  • RE: How to make a mirror from a SQL Server 2000 on a SQL Server 2008???

    If you mean something else, please clarify.

  • RE: Retrieving column and table names used in a stored procedure

    neil.bower (2/9/2011)


    Is there an alternative that would include the tables on the linked server too?
