  • RE: Active Directory

  • RE: interview questions

    On the down OLTP server, my first question would be, "what do you mean 'down'?". There's a big difference between "the web pages are slow and customers are complaining"...

  • RE: Reverse string without built in functions

    That's not part of the addition. That's just setting up a framework to run it. Run the query without that, with the numbers directly in the Where clause,...

    Florian Reischl (4/18/2009)


    I have a short question depending on the article I intend to write (CLR solutions to split strings).

    What do you like more C# or VB.Net? It doesn't matter...

  • RE: Active Directory

    I guess I don't understand your question. If you're creating AD groups, wouldn't you store those in the Active Directory? That's not in SQL.

  • RE: Why Cursor is Slower?

    I think you may be confusing table variables with something else. Or using them in a way I'm not familiar with. Table variables are not inherently slow. ...
