Check the connection settings between the two, especially the ANSI settings. I wouldn't be surprised if they're different.

I'm not sure, but the first question I'd have is, what does the execution plan of the scalar function look like, all by it's lonesome?

You can also use OUTPUT parameters.

CREATE PROCEDURE proc1

(@param1 INT

,@param2 INT OUTPUT)

AS

SET @param2 = @param1 ;

GO

CREATE PROCEDURE proc2

AS...

In addition to Profiler, if you want to get real time information on queries that are currently in cache, you can get aggregate performance information from sys.dm_exec_query_stats. You can get...

Personally, I create all the databases out of TSQL code and check the code into a source control management system (Visual SourceSafe VSS, Team Foundation Server TFS, there are others)....

I'd change that definition just slightly. It means that the string passed will be unicode. This would be for use with NVARCHAR, NCHAR and the other fields and/or parameters in...

Generally, rather than create statistics, I just create an index. It's a fairly rare circumstance that requires you to manually build and maintain statistics rather than simply have an index....

Wow! That one is busy. Thanks for posting it.

Interestingly enough, it's not returning query text for the blocking process either.

Because, right now, I'm utterly confused what storing an IP address has to do with "auto locking" which is the title of the post.

Thanks to all of you guys for giving me good information and the code is working fine now. Can u guys suggest some stored procedure samples that i can...

We mostly use schemas for storage requirements or security, but I don't think simple organization would be an issue either. I also agree with Jack, if you have to combine...

It's much easier to answer questions on the forum if you provide a very clear, focused and detailed question. Really general and vague questions can only be answered in general...

Another word of caution for the DTA. I recently ran a series of experiments using the DTA against AdventureWorks2008. It wasn't capturing obvious indexing issues. I don't trust it at...
