    Joe's pulled out his usual example over here: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1026791-392-1.aspx (please don't take that thread out of control. So far it's polite)

    Before I reply to his assertions, I'd like an...

  • RE: Passing Negative Integer Value To Stored Procedure INT Parameter

    Is it possible the @active parameter is interfering with the query? What did you set that to when you ran the query outside the proc?

  • RE: Passing Negative Integer Value To Stored Procedure INT Parameter

    I'd have to at least see the code for the stored proc before I'd be able to begin helping on this.

  • RE: Data isssue - with time

  • RE: duplicate job schedules

    The schedules are stored in msdb. You can query the tables there to see if a row already exists with the criteria you want to use.

  • RE: sick and itred of bcp

    CLR procedures can write to a text file pretty easily.

    I'd use SSIS, but if you don't like that, and don't like BCP, give CLR a shot.
