  • RE: An inconsistency was detected during an internal operation

    Ok, so no database corruption. That's good. Just to be sure, you ran that on the database that has an ID of 10?

    This may be a transient condition that doesn't...

  • RE: Microsoft SQL Server v 8.00.761

    Where did you purchase the computer from? It's really, really odd to buy a machine that has SQL pre-loaded. Especially if you didn't get the installation materials

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    It was another thread, it was mid-late Jan. I remember because I was working on a very similar problem at the time.

    Unfortunately, that's all I remember.

  • RE: Begin Transaction question

    SET @stringA = 'DirectoryA\DirectoryB\FileName'

    -- Where is the last '\'?

    SET @pos = LEN(@StringA) -...
