    Confirmed--I get as far as logging in now, but the page that comes up once I've logged in just says "Sorry, an error has occurred".

  • RE: Introduction to Indexes: Part 2 – The clustered index

    The guys who write SQL Server think of everything, it seems!

  • RE: Introduction to Indexes: Part 2 – The clustered index

    Out of sheer curiosity: you mention that a hidden 4-byte column is added to the clustered index key to make it unique in the event that it is not. Let's...

    Thanks Gail. Brilliant article. Can't wait for part 2 and 3.

    You don't have to wait for them, they're linked right there at the end of this one! 🙂

  • RE: SQL Server v MySQL

    Yes, but my point was that he made a point about him liking the ability to install MySQL on his XP machine and have multiple different versions installed at the...

  • RE: SQL Server v MySQL

    I dunno, I thought that he was deliberately missing stuff out. For instance, if you want a fully-featured Enterprise Edition of SQL Server to run on Windows XP, you can...

  • RE: Tackle the Question of the Day on your cell phone

    Just tested this from my Nokia e63 (Symbian) and got a 404...intentional, or not?

    SELECT TOP (5) * FROM #Test WHERE RowID > 5000; - 5001

    SELECT TOP (5) *...

  • RE: smalldatetime

    Not so sure about the explanation given--smalldatetime doesn't have a "default value" of 1 Jan 1900, it's just that the underlying number that stores the date uses 0 to represent...

    Jeff Moden (12/28/2010)

    Koen (da-zero) (12/28/2010)

    We have some other type of alcohol, called "jenever" (no idea what the English translation is) and that type of drink can have many flavours.

    Will1922 (12/28/2010)

    Hmm. Turn off their antivirus for better game performance? Seems like a no-brainer for me. Not just better performance on Steam, but any game would...

  • RE: Subtle Line Feed / Carriage Return issue
