  • RE: Basic of T-SQL

    Hugo Kornelis (8/20/2012)


    EDIT 2: I also ran a quick test to prove that SQL Server does not even evaluate the * or 1 in both the COUNT and the EXISTS...

  • RE: T-SQL Syntax

    Cliff Jones (8/17/2012)


    I had no idea what the correct answer was and still don't.

    There is no correct answer. Several terms in the question were vague enough to ensure that. It's...

  • RE: Table Variable

    Had to double-check the use of IDENTITY in table variables.

    Good question -- and good answer choices!

    sknox (8/6/2012)


    Hugo, I can see why you didn't want the "choose 3" text there -- for many of us it takes a question with 31 possible answers (2^5...

  • RE: Index types 1

    Jack Corbett (8/6/2012)


    I over thought this one, and knew I was doing it, but still did it anyway. My thinking was that, while you do not have...

  • RE: Commenting in Dynamic query

    Of course, the real bug is this:

    The string char(13) will break the line.

    Char(13) is a Carriage Return, not a Line Feed. It should, therefore, move the cursor to the...

    Luis Cazares (7/19/2012)


    Why is everyone so upset about the answer? It's clear that the question is if you can restore the database without deleting the other snapshots....

    anthony.green (7/19/2012)


    I also read it as being Yes as the question didnt specify needing to delete or not delete the other snapshots, so in theory Yes...

  • RE: XML index

    Sean Lange (7/17/2012)


    Learned something today from a good question, although it was fairly easy to deduce the correct answer. Given the binary nature of computers the max number of...

  • RE: Max processor cores

    Haaico (7/12/2012)


    I hate to say it but this is another one of those questions that is not quite clear enough. Is a processor core a logical processor or a processor?

    The...

  • RE: Views and changes

    Bob Razumich (7/2/2012)


    For a moment, I thought the correct answer was a trick answer. "sp_refreshview"? It just seemed too cute for a Monday, but I looked it up first, anyway...

  • RE: Temp Tables

    ScottPletcher (6/25/2012)


    When read literally, today's question is simple and straightforward.

    Quite true. The second part is clearly false, since "When [you are] dealing with table variables, ...", you cannot define...

  • RE: Temp Tables

    ScottPletcher (6/25/2012)


    "A Table Variable can have primary keys and indexes defined." I don't see the word "you" in there. Can indexes be defined on a table variable? Well, they can...

  • RE: Restricting updates?

    Gazareth (6/22/2012)


    Nice question, thanks.

    I'd like to start a quick poll: who's updated the most rows in a live table accidentally by not including a where clause in their update statement?

    (Doesn't...
