  • RE: SP4 on Express

    It depends which edition you have installed. SQLEXPR.EXE is for Express Edition, while SQLEXPR_ADV is for Express Edition with Advanced Services. SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE contains the Management Studio Express and Business Intelligence...

  • RE: sp_cursoropen + error 16954

    As far as I know this message is actually informational--it means the server didn't need to use a cursor to perform the specified operation, it just ran the SQL directly.

  • RE: Strange SQL Server Evaluation of 0 (bit) = '' (Empty string) or even non empty string

    Out of interest, what are you *expecting* to get back when you compare a Boolean column to an empty string?

  • RE: Where Do You Park?

    bill.saunders1 (9/6/2011)I've always been driven by location, since I work to live, not live to work.

    Which is exactly the reason I live where I do...when I'm not at work, I'd...

  • RE: Order By Clause

    cengland0 (9/6/2011)

    The most commonly selected answer (so far) is "Query 3 and Query 4 will fail" (28%) which means many people think it's okay to put an order by clause...

  • RE: Order By Clause

    Knew 4 would fail, but never heard of the problem that would cause #1 to not work...always nice to learn something new! (I mean, I realised the ORDER BY in...

  • RE: Where Do You Park?

    If I lived closer in to the city centre it would probably be fine...I could use the Metrolink tram (Manchester), which has been OK the few times I've used it....

  • RE: Recovery Models

    Depends on what kind of disaster, what it damaged and what it left intact.

    Would it make a difference if you were able to take a tail log backup of...

  • RE: Where Do You Park?

    GilaMonster (9/4/2011)

    I'd love to commute some other way, but in a city with no good, reliable, safe public transport that's a dream. It's walk, bike or drive, or don't go...

  • RE: Estimation of mdf and ldf files in SQL Server 2005

    With the information provided the only possible answer is "it depends". For example, if this 100Gb of data hardly ever changes, you'll not need a very big log file and...

  • RE: Where Do You Park?

    jay holovacs (9/1/2011)Really really silly because the parking lot at this building is more than ample, it is never, ever filled.

    That actually brings me to mind of the place I...

  • RE: Recovery Models

    True, but since you need to switch it back to full recovery and then take a log backup--which, as the article said, will easily be the full 50Gb and change...

  • RE: The Right Kind Of Join II

    This is one of those questions where the common sense answer (e.g. both tables have no data in, so of course the answer will be zero rows!) is actually right...I...

  • RE: Where Do You Park?

    I regularly work at two offices, and in both places I park in a position where I know I can get back out easily without having to make more than...

  • RE: Recovery Models

    Nice article, but it just reinforces a query I've had for a while: why does bulk-logged recovery mode even exist? It has some hefty downsides compared to full recovery, and...
