  • RE: date Hierarchy (simple hopefully)

    You can keep your dates as dates using the date data type. It's easier to manage and requires 1 byte less of storage per row. 😉

    Just a little humor.

  • RE: Scrub Personal Information Data

    Does this example helps you?

    Note that the code is non deterministic, so the results aren't guaranteed to be the same on each run.

  • RE: BCP out to xls file

    bcp doesn't have output to xls files. It generates flat files (delimited or fixed length) which you can add any extension.

    Use SSIS for this.

    You can use the SELECT...INTO... option using a global temp table or a perm table. A local temp table would lose the scope after finishing the dynamic code execution so...
