  • RE: Identity Columns

  • RE: Identity Columns

    Seqiy,

    Do you have a Microsoft URL for "And prefixing tables with "tbl" as well as all other objects in SQL decreases database performance. Just in case you did not hear...

  • RE: Identity Columns

    Shyam,

  • RE: String or binary data would be truncated

    My 2 cents...

     SELECT DATEADD(mi,30*Number,0) AS BW1

       INTO #v_hcdata_Total

    How true, how true... I'm still waiting for Ravi to post some code and maybe give us a hint as to the rowcounts in the tables.
