    The easiest way is to do it like this

    WHERE Oink.[System] like @System + '%'

    ANDOink.Stratigrafie like @Stratigrafie + '%'

    ANDOink.Ulozeni like @Ulozeni + '%'

    AND Oink.DrEvid like @DrEvid + '%'

    If speed isn't a issue here, I doubt it'd be worth it. I imagine there's easier ways to get bigger improvements too.

    Best bet would be to test for each...

  • RE: Automatic backup task

    Okay, it's running. I'm not quite sure exactly what finally did the trick - I played with modifying the access privileges, as one of the articles suggested, and I restarted...

    Hey, Lee, thanks for your input. It's always good to hear different perspectives, especially when those thought are accompanied by sound reasoning and underscored by experience. In my case, data...
