How absolutely up to date do you need your data? If you use caching, SSRS would load the report data once, and then used the cached data. ...

one option is to import into a staging table, then append the unique values to another table...

Amen to that.

There are the usually obvious cases where they should be avoided, but the cases where they're ideal is never really covered. It's like cursors are a bad word,...

Oh, c'mon... you've been around here long enough to know how to post data. Here's the table/inserts:

CREATE TABLE t1 (

CREATE TRIGGER Customers_country_Insert_Update

ON Customers

AFTER INSERT, UPDATE

AS

BEGIN

SET NOCOUNT ON;

UPDATE Customers

SET Country=UPPER(Country)

WHERE CustomerID IN...

query the database size, insert into table with timestamp... I know there are examples around here somewhere. Search around.

SELECT Account

, MonthsBetweenRuns

, DDCycle

, Num

FROM tblDDAccounts A CROSS JOIN Tally T

WHERE Num % MonthsBetweenRuns = 0;
