  • RE: A discrepancy in the amounts being totaled

    May as well pile on to this one...

    It's not a problem. Half the time when I type up the question to post it up here when I'm stuck, the act...

  • RE: A discrepancy in the amounts being totaled

    Not to mention, is there more than one access path? Can people modify the values after they've been entered? If so, are there triggers in place to account for that...

  • RE: PASS

    HA!

    And I thought you meant Quality Face Time...

    Oh jeez. The internet has let me down... again...

  • RE: PASS

    I had to go and look QFT up. :ermm:

    See, even when you're not teaching, you're teaching. There's a darn good reason you're an MVP.

  • RE: PASS

    Yeah, all the training, access to Microsoft programmers, PSS, the vendors, the swag, Steve's magnificent night of gambling... All great stuff.

    The absolute most important part of the Summit is getting...

  • RE: A discrepancy in the amounts being totaled

    Then that doesn't sound like a structural problem. It must be one of logic.

    There's no way for innacurate numbers to be entered or values to be changed over time?

  • RE: A discrepancy in the amounts being totaled

  • RE: PASS

  • RE: 2005 equivalent

    There isn't a replacement. From the BOL:

    ALL

    This option is deprecated and maintained only for backward compatibility. It does not grant all possible permissions. Granting ALL is equivalent to granting the...

  • RE: Error Handling

    It does parse, but try generating an estimated execution plan. It fails immediately. Parse and compile aren't the same.

  • RE: Re: Constrainted values versus foreign key table

    I've done this two different ways.

    First was to add an effective date column and then always sort by effective date to get the latest effective value.

    Better was to create...

  • RE: dynamic database generation

    I agree with Gail. Further, it seems like a SurveyId would be a great candidate for the leading edge of the clustered index on most tables. This would store the...

  • RE: Error Handling

    No, it's pretty clear. Here's the first statement that jumps out:

    A TRY…CATCH construct catches all execution errors with severity greater than 10 that do not terminate the database connection.

    And then,...

  • RE: An MVP From Way Down South

    WOO HOO!

    Another well deserved reward. That's terrific. Congratulations Gail. Holy cow, all the cool kids seem to be hanging out here now.

  • RE: Congratulations to Our New MVPs

    You're going to be at PASS?

    You've got a beverage-of-your-choice coming from me. Track me down.
