    In SQL 2000, MS said that best practice was to:

    - Create a Global Group,

    - Put Windows users in the Global Group,

    - Put that Global Group in a...

  • RE: Sequence Number equivalent in SQLServer2005

    The only thing I can think of is to use row_number(). You can create a view that is used to select from the table that includes the row_number() calculation...

  • RE: Incremental backup

    You can find references to incremental backups for SQL Server in the SMO documentation. From there, an incremental backup is equivelant to a differential backup in SQL Server.

    Using SMO...

  • RE: Execute a stored procedure inside a user defined function

    rbarryyoung (9/30/2008)


    Yeah, if I do have to do this, I would much rather use OPENQUERY than xp_CmdShell.

    I have to agree with this - especially since you cannot be assured that...

  • RE: Join three tables and

    rbarryyoung (9/30/2008)


    Wouldn't you want to do it like this?:

    SELECT *

    FROM table1

    LEFT JOIN (table2 INNER JOIN table3 ON table3.fkey = table2.Pkey)

    ON table2.fkey = table1.Pkey

    tbeadle (9/29/2008)


    Hello,

    While it's true the "non-standard' outer joins are depreciated, they do work and will work quite some time into the future. Microsoft depreciated announcements do not mean the...

  • RE: Join three tables and

    tbeadle,

    Your recommended solution will not work because it is using non-ANSI outer join operators. Those operators have been deprecated in SQL Server 2005.

    To the OP - the other solutions...

  • RE: Database Size and Available Space

    Deleting data from the database will not shrink the database file size. What you are seeing is correct and is what I would expect.

    BTW - you want to have...

  • RE: Convert datetime to just time (only hour)

    You are still going to use CONVERT - but, you need to tell it what style. Look up CONVERT in Books Online for the correct style to return just...

  • RE: SQL 2005 and AWE memory tuning.

    Yeah - that's what I think also, based upon the original post. Still, have to wonder why someone would run 12 instances on a system with only 4GB of...

    Glad I could help

  • RE: Database Backup

    Unfortunately, I only have SQL Server 2008 installed on this workstation - so the link I have would not work for you.

    If you open Books Online (or, from SSMS go...

  • RE: job that sends notification based on query result

    Try defining an operator that only receives notifications using net send. Then, use sp_notify_operator to send a notification to that operator.

    If you don't want to look at clustering - consider Database Mirroring instead. You could replace your log shipped database with a mirror, setup a witness for failover and...

  • RE: Database Backup
