  • RE: Jeff Moden elected Exceptional DBA of 2011

    Congratulations Jeff!

    This is something well deserved and sadly I missed the posting about this until one of my co-workers came over and told me.

    "Your hero was elected the Exceptional DBA...

  • RE: INSERT INTO

    this is just a bad question.

    Second select statement returns a count of 2

    This is plain wrong, and depending on how you read the answers about the inserts causing errors...

  • RE: Database Collation

    Tom.Thomson (9/11/2011)


    Good easy question.

    I got it wrong because I am not case-sensitive when scanning SQL :blush::laugh:

    Ditto... at least this time when I got it wrong, I understood why I got...

    I'll tell you what is REALLY missing, after working with Crystal Reports for years.

  • RE: A faster DBCC CHECKDB?

  • RE: Niagara Falls

    This one just scares me.

    It would seem that REPLACE is still an old C function call, and it sees the CHAR(0) and treats it as the string terminator that C...

  • RE: Installing SQL Server 2005

    Shark Energy (7/29/2011)


    In the absence of an SP listed in the question for the SQL install, I'd assume he is referring to vanilla flavour.
