    I think you should act on entries...

  • RE: Using Distinct or group by

    You can see in the execution plan that both options are executed alike.

  • RE: The Challenges of Being Safe

    For one additional degree of difficulty: What's the result from this query?

    select DATEADD(HOUR,5,DATEADD(MINUTE,-59,'2009-02-09 12:34:56.789'))
