  • RE: Will IS NULL work for IF criteria

    What did you get when you tried it?

    When I ran this:

    DECLARE @Var int

    IF @Var IS NULL

    SELECT 'It Works'

    ELSE

    SELECT 'Nope'

    it returned It Works on my system at home.

  • RE: FTP Compenent

    Are you running this from BIDS in debug mode? If so, on your desktop system or the server? Is the file located on you desktop or the server?

  • RE: SQL 2005 32 or 64 bit

    torpkev (7/28/2009)


    I believe you can try:

    SELECT SERVERPROPERTY ('edition') as [Product Edition]

    64 Bit should say Standard Edition (64 Bit)/Enterprise Edition (64 Bit) in the text, 32 bit will just say Standard...

  • RE: ntext column problem?

    Youri S. Pikulin (7/28/2009)


    Yes, I have tried this.

    The copy size is about 80 MB, even with an (empty) ntext column. So, this is a work-around (copy, drop original, rename copy)....

  • RE: Partitioning tables

    Now you added another table to the mix. Is Table2 used else where in this procedure?

  • RE: FTP Compenent

    Actually, the error message isn't really helping here. The real problem is that we can't see your package to determine what may be wrong. Start where Alvin suggested...

    select

    Ticker

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Might be E3L (or ETL, but then that might be cofused as something else), English as 3rd Language; as opposed to ESL, English as Second language.

  • RE: Partitioning tables

    I'm sorry but the second INSERT into Table1 has me totally confused. First, there is a typo as both instances of Table1 are aliased a. Second, it doesn't...

  • RE: how to deal with characters and period

    Okay, that's your data, but what does the table look like, what is the output from the query supposed to look like?

  • RE: FTP Compenent

    Alvin, did you lose your tin-foil hat again?? You know we are supposed to be able to read minds. 😉

  • RE: Filter database list in SSMS

    I don't believe this is possible. However, if the user does not have permission, they won't be able to access the other databases.

  • RE: Simple 'WHERE' clause question

    Looking at the query and the fact that it uses just that one column, I'd add an index on that column. If it has to do a table scan...

  • RE: SQl code tuneup

    select distinct

    a.EMPID,

    sdate

    into

    #temp1

  • RE: Simple 'WHERE' clause question

    I'd also make the following change to your where clause so that the Query Optimizer can make use of an index on meetingstartdate if it exists.

    SELECT

    meetingstartdate,
