  • RE: Queries

    That was ...

    ... interesting:rolleyes:

  • RE: What a View

    And certainly not views that do [font="Courier New"]SELECT *[/font]

  • RE: Check status of SPN?

    I couldn't even remember what an SPN was, but I figured -R should be RESET, and -D should be DELETE. That left -L for LIST. Good thing the tool writers...

  • RE: Temp Tables

    ronmoses (6/25/2012)


    I see no problem with the wording. Can a table variable have indexes defined, yes or no? Yes, it can. That's all that was asked -...

  • RE: Temp Tables

    There are no ways to DEFINE indexes on table variables. Indexes may or may not be created by the implementation when you define constraints, but that is an implementation detail.

  • RE: Type

    Great question!

    It highlights something which could be considered a bug. It's certainly not something you would expect from reading the documentation on CREATE TYPE.

    Being someone who actually used sp_addtype "back...

  • RE: LOB Data

    This question is just completely broken. There's a big difference between "preferred" and "valid". And to claim that varbinary(max) isn't a LOB is a bit daft.

  • RE: Subtle Line Feed / Carriage Return issue

    While I find the question slightly pointless, I have to say I'm more than a little surprised that so many got it wrong. The question made it perfectly clear that...

  • RE: Nested Temporary Tables

    Richard M Karpel (12/16/2010)


    Now, I read the section highlighted in BOL, and I expected to get the not defined error message, but I would need to look further and see...

  • RE: Problem with date type

    I don't want to come off as mean, but your problem is that you fail to communicate what your problem is.

    If your object is in fact the Java "Date" class,...

  • RE: Nested Temporary Tables

    Excellent question!

    I got it wrong on the strength of some tests I ran that gave me the 'Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition.' error....

  • RE: T-SQL

    shaycullen (12/15/2010)


    Yeah, but the question did ask for the "output" - SQL Server will append the 00:00:00.000 onto the end, so technically none of the answers are correct.

    SQL Server does...

  • RE: Unique constraint on a nullable column

    Truly a good question because it provoked a lot of thought as to which techniques are possible, valid and practical.

    I got it "right" (yay!), but after reading the discussion I...

  • RE: sys.syscomments

    This is not a particularly very well designed question. What is a comment and what is the definition? I would say the comments inside an object are part of the...

  • RE: True or False

    Great question.

    But the version should have been specified. In SQL 2000 you can see the execution plan even for encrypted procs. Although that would probably have been a dead giveaway...
