    I'm in the same boat as a few others. Web development and design would actually be a distraction from what I get paid to be good at.

  • RE: Null values

    The function you need is "NullIf".

    select NullIf(@Field24, '')

    If the first value equals the second value, it returns a null.

  • RE: Copy 2005 Database containing table with varchar(max) to a 2000 database

    You'll have to convert varchar(max) to text to get it into SQL 2000. A data conversion point in you data flow should be able to do that for you.

    It will always be .111...short of 1.
