It's always somewhat interesting to see how long some blogs have gone without updates, yet are still around...

I was looking for information on a SSRS issue (in QA so nothing...

Yeah, the deattach and send the MDF is what's been marked as the answer.

I guess part of me is rather averse to deattach / reattach for some reason, even if...

I'm presuming that such a trigger would have better performance than the function (function has to work on every row where the computed column is selected, trigger catches the problem...

That was my first suggestion, but according to the Dev, the people who send...

Once more, thanks Gail!

The Dev put together a function to check for non-numeric characters, and if found, not create the computed value. In theory, the application which uses this...

All hail the great and powerful Gail!

With a couple suggestions, she put me on the right track to find what was breaking an update stats maintenance plan!

Which I was then...

select

name

, STATS_DATE(object_id, stats_id) as LastUpdated

from sys.stats

where object_id = 735341684

order by LastUpdated asc;

to see which stats hadn't been updated...

That's going to be fun...

😉

56 auto-created stats to check, plus one on the primary key. Well, no one said this job would be easy!

Hmm, time to see if I...

Hello,

This is kind of a basic question, but I'll ask anyway lest I look bad in front of my boss....

I have to upgrade a 2005 SQL box to...

If you can, and if there's room on the remote box, just copy the entire CD to a folder on the SQL box, and run setup from there.

That's essentially what...
