    Again, don't display it. There's absolutely no value in what it looks like and if all you need to do is compare it, it does not need to be displayed.

  • RE: Cannot obtain LOCK resource at this time :sick:

    SQL Pizza (2/6/2013)

    p.s. The plan that comes from sys.dm_exec_query_plan is the estimated plan, because it has no actual row counts.
