    Looking forward to the season. Thinking to drive to KC this year for a game.

    My company is going to upgrade from 2000 to 2008.

    Do I need to change all the @@error logic to Try...Catch logic

  • RE: Changing a FLOAT column to VARCHAR

    lmu92 (1/15/2010)


    Since FLOAT is an approximate-number data type, the character length may vary, therewith exceeding the VARCHAR(10) limit.

    You need to get the value converted to a "known length".

    Either one...

  • RE: Changing a FLOAT column to VARCHAR

    Update: I came up with a kludge solution where I only updated a ZIP with len(ZIP) = 5.

  • RE: Subroutines in TSQL

    I come from a VBScript/VB.NET/OOP background myself, so I understand the subroutine concept! 🙂

    I'm just trying to see how it's applicable to SQL. Since I've lived on both sides...

  • RE: Subroutines in TSQL

    Another question (again, I think I understand, but I'm looking to clarify): how would a subroutine differ from a CTE? What would a subroutine do that a CTE can't...
