    Only thing I can think of in that case is install something like CutePDF and use that.

    You should be able to print right from the File menu of Management Studio. Can you not?

    There isn't a way that I know of.

    If what they're running are simple ad hoc queries, it shouldn't matter too much. If they're doing that in production code, then...

  • RE: The Relational Manager

    Personally, I'd rather have a manager who was skilled at management and poor at technology than the other way around.

  • RE: Rebuilding indexes

    You can shrink a database if you need to. Rebuilding indexes afterwards will help.

    I just recommend against it because, (a) it fragments indexes and reduces performance, and (b) it...

    They way I think I'd do it, in that case, is have the cost be a column in the table where you log the error dates. Then you can...

  • RE: Trigger: Looping though multiple rows in the deleted table?

    Yes, it makes sense, but SQL sees it as a possible infinite loop. It isn't, but the code has to err on the side of false positives in this...

  • RE: Trigger: Looping though multiple rows in the deleted table?
