    [h2]If your data is important to you then Back It Up![/h2]

  • RE: to INCLUDE or not to INCLUDE

    Steve Jones - Editor (1/7/2009)

    Hi Gail,

    After the first seek is done are the other filters done on the index or resultant dataset return from the first filter(Index seek)

    The latter.

  • RE: cannot understand why query analyzer is picking a specific index.

    Since all of the filters are inequalities, SQL can only seek on one of them. The other two have to be applied as a second step after the index seek....

    Maybe it's just a phrasing issue, but an update statement is not going to insert anything into the database. It's going to modify an...

  • RE: Performance issues with SQL Server Stored Procedures

    Run profiler and capture the SP_Completed event. That will get you the stats for every proc run.

    You could run the proc with the execution plan on and see which queries...
