    Except the linked article doesn't mention anything about uniqueness constraints.

    Actually, no I just misread it.

  • RE: ADO recodset problem with nvarchar(max)

    valeryk2000 (2/16/2012)


    It handles perfectly the other way - when I insert into SQL table and set the parameter

    cmd.CreateParameter("@CaseSummary", adLongVarWChar, adParamInput, -1, IIf(IsNull(txtCaseSummary.Value), Null, txtCaseSummary.Value))

    So Access 2003 handles something at...

  • RE: autofix change in 2008

    I still use it manually with no trouble, but I came up with this for when we restore production to a test environment.

    USE [?];

    DECLARE @cmd NVARCHAR(MAX)

    SELECT

  • RE: ADO recodset problem with nvarchar(max)

    I don't believe Access 2003 will handle nvarchar(max)

    The SQL Backend is fine with it, the Access front end is not. So in this case I'd make the client do...

  • RE: Tips to optimize your SQL statements

    5) Check for any table or Index scans. Using the execution plan, it's easy to identify if the SQL statement is performing any table or index scans. In the majority...

  • RE: Database Performance Transparency

    Doesn't work with Clustered instances. Or with default instances

    SET @instanceName = CONVERT (VARCHAR,SERVERPROPERTY ('ComputerNamePhysicalNetBIOS')) + '\' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,SERVERPROPERTY('InstanceName'))

    It will...

    mtassin (2/7/2012)

    I don't see different query plans with 4136 on or off, I see vastly different performance with respect to response times. So much so that I...

    I will admit, recompile would not be my first or even second option for dealing with parameter sniffing.

    Personally dealing with parameter sniffing I prefer Traceflag 4136. ...

    Actually it was the commented section in the query that says "this errors out and isn't what I was expecting"
