  • RE: Implicit conversion comparing INT column to 0

    An implicit conversion of a constant or variable to a different data type shouldn't cause performance issues, since that's a one-time thing, and it's being done to prevent the much...

    Thanks Scott,

    How do I fix this code:

    AppDetails.DateDetailDisposed BETWEEN getdate() - 25 AND getdate() - 20

    I only need getdate() -21, but that's giving me blank output

    WHERE ... AND

    Check the compatibility level of the db. Compatibility needs to be at least 90 for ROW_NUMBER() to work.

  • RE: Trouble w/ a WHERE statement.

    Hmm, interesting. I thought the InspectionId was a "primary key", and therefore unique. Sorry, I'm confused now about the data structure and relationships.

  • RE: Trouble w/ a WHERE statement.

    From what you've described, I think this will select the rows you need. Btw, I hope the table isn't clustered on that guid, even though that is the PK.

    Why do you refuse to create a clustered index??
