David, I wouldn't think so either - but, it really depends on how large the stored procedures were. They are looking at 8000 procedures that were removed, which could...

Hi again, I did some test to check and this are my results:

1. I deleted all software, hardware, material and travel records.

2. I inserted 1000$ for project TEST in...

You will need to use dynamic SQL:

Use Apr09;

Declare @bulk_cmd varchar(1000);

Set @bulk_cmd = 'BULK INSERT Ramses

FROM ''G:\Ramses Logs\''' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,GETDATE(),112) + '-Ramsesapp.csv''

WITH

(

FIELDTERMINATOR = ''',''',

ROWTERMINATOR = '''')'

Execute(@bulk_cmd);

Make sure you match up the...

It really is not clear what you are trying to do. Please review the article I link to in my signature and post some samples that we can work...

Also - you really should not be using the return value from a stored procedure for anything other than the status. I would recommend using an output parameter for...

What have you tried so far?

Hmmm, I must have mis-interpeted this post. Space isn't allocated to tables in Sql Server it is allocated to the database. If you deleted...

Is this a stored procedure - and does the stored procedure use parameters? Do you create variables and use the variables in the queries for this procedure?

Just thinking this...

Right - I was not recommending shrinking the database. Only, if absolutely required - because you are never going to grow the datafile again, ever - then you can...

Windows XP on client machines comes with SQL Server ODBC Driver for 2000.

Soon clients will have to connect...

USE master

go

DBCC SHRINKDATABASE('your_database_name_here', NOTRUNCATE)

go

DBCC SHRINKDATABASE('your_database_name_here', TRUNCATEONLY)

go

This command will shrink the database and should be run off hours. As always when making a change to adatabase have a...

Bob has outlined one of the ways you can approach this, however - that solution won't utilize any indexes on the date columns if they exist. If all you...

The index rebuilds won't block on the table/index resource - they block on CPU resources. You'll start to see a lot of CXPACKET waits and they will increase a...

Be aware that on SQL Server 2005 Standard, index rebuilds will only utilize a single processor. They will never use a parallel plan.

SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition can (and...

I have to agree with Tim here - you are missing something from the application. Could be a monitor process, a scheduled job - or even a user that...
