  • RE: Extract info from Sharepoint database

    Sharepoint provides a whole bunch of web services for retrieving data from the sharepoint DBs. You're not supposed to be querying it directly. Maybe ask that in one of the...

  • RE: When to update index statistics

    Might have been added in SQL 2008. You can use the script instead.

  • RE: SLOW Queries... ready to pull my hair out.

    I'll play with that. I can do it for part numbers but not for the part name. For example, if a user searches for 'resistor' and that...

  • RE: Removing Ghost Records

    Drop database is a bit extreme. Personally I'd try an index defrag on the cluster with LOB Compact first. If that doesn't work, then rebuild the clustered index

    and, if you move the creation of the indexes to after the population, do you still get this error? If not, that's possibly a good workaround. It also means you're...

    I was under the impression that the only way to shink a log file is to have two consecutive log file backups and then the shrinkfile will work.

    No. The GUI runs the same script you'll run. Could be there's an open transaction of something preventing the shrink. Maybe wait a few hours and try again. It often...
