It just seems to be too much work when you still need to retrieve results in some order. If you don't then who cares?
You should care when inserting into...

Be careful with phrasing: MSDN doesn't say it doesn't work, they say it's not guaranteed to work.

When used together with a SELECT...INTO statement to insert rows from another source, ...
I take that to mean what it explicitly says -- if you do SELECT ... INTO <new_table>,...

You did give SQL this instruction when creating the trigger:
WITH EXECUTE AS 'DOMAIN\AnonLogin'
Maybe you can use ORIGINAL_LOGIN( ) to still get the actual original login name.

Seconded -- the Developer Edition of SQL is great for learning -- and cheap!
For SQL Server knowledge, check out "Inside SQL Books" by/with Kalen Delaney.
For T-SQL, check out books by...

On the really large tables, looks like you are using LID, varchar(100), to join / match on them.
Is there an index on LID on the large tables? If so,...

Running SELECT * FROM test.dbo.sysfiles I got the following
To be safe, you really should run against test.sys.database_files, since that is what SQL is actually looking at ... notice...

Given that this is SQL 2008 (or SQL 2005 at least), you mean:
SELECT *
FROM test.sys.database_files
right? 🙂
January 10, 2012 at 2:22 pm
Ok.
See what is in the sys.master_files "table" for that db:
SELECT *
FROM sys.master_files
WHERE
database_id = DB_ID(N'test')

Once the SQL Agent logs have scrolled off -- that is, been renamed as SQLAGENT.1, ~.2, etc., by SQL Server -- you can just go into Windows and delete them....

Verify the logical file names are what you expect them to be.
USE <your_db_name>
EXEC sp_helpfile
--Or: EXEC <your_db_name>.dbo.sp_helpfile
The first column will show the logical file name, which, of course, must match what...

The need for the end user to define columns (not fields) might just be the most obvious evidence of a bad design....
Do you have an example where such a...

That physical file copy thing's not looking so bad now, is it? :-):-)

SQL 2005 is different from either.

1. Insert the SQL Server 2005 installation media into the disk drive.
2. Use the following syntax:
start /wait <CD or DVD Drive>\setup.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=<InstanceName> REINSTALL=SQL_Engine REBUILDDATABASE=1...
January 3, 2012 at 2:55 pm
Excellent point.
For SQL 2008, you must do run:
setup.exe /QUIET /ACTION=REBUILDDATABASE /INSTANCENAME=instance_name
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS= accounts [/SAPWD=password]
If in Mixed mode, specify the /SAPWD; if Windows/Authenticated only, leave it off.
Have to admit I...
