You can divide by 0.25 and use CEILING to round up:

;WITH Numbers (N) AS (

SELECT 2.20

UNION ALL

SELECT 2.60

UNION ALL

SELECT 2.80

UNION ALL

SELECT 2.10

)

SELECT CEILING(N / 0.25)...

I would suggest using Ola Hallengren's Index Maintenance script:

I don't want to take away from your script, but... why reinvent the wheel?

See here:

Enable AWE to allow SQLServer to use more than 4 GB of RAM.

Hope this helps

Glad we could help. 🙂

I suppose that you want to do this calculation for each patient.

This could be a nice way to do it with a single scan:

IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#INPUT_DATA') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE...

Oracle (which version, BTW?) does not support CROSS APPLY. You can chenge it to a CROSS JOIN:

SELECT A.REPORT_DATE,

A.REPORT_TYPE,

...

I built a SQL2K8 cluster on VirtualBox last month, using Win2K3 and FreeNas for the storage.

Could it be a suitable setup for an article?

Well, actually you don't need a CTE, but you could tweak Howard's code to take the distinct into account:

SELECT SaleID FROM #SalesDetails sd

INNER JOIN #ProdList ON sd.ProductID = #ProdList.ProductID

GROUP BY...

Something like this should do:

;WITH Sales AS (

SELECT SaleId, COUNT(DISTINCT ProductId) AS DistinctProducts

FROM #SalesDetails

WHERE ProductId IN (SELECT ProductId FROM #ProdList)

GROUP BY SaleId

),

Products AS (

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT ProductId) AS DistinctProducts

FROM #ProdList

)

SELECT SaleID

FROM...

yourserver\instancename,port

check the second instance port

Default port is 1433 for default instance and 1434 is for browser service default service,change the second instance port restart the service...

You can also check PortQuery from Microsoft and see if your SQLBrowser is reachable:

portqry.exe -n yourServerNameGoesHere -e 1434 -p UDP

You have to check whether SQLBrowser service is running and reachable from the client.

SQLBrowser uses UDP port 1434 IIRC, so you just have to check your firewall rules and...

Congrats!

You can keep a postcard of this moment:

OK, it's much clearer now.

Dependency checks are not performed when you create a stored procedure.

See BOL here:

Deferred Name Resolution and Compilation

Hmmm. Yes, this was clear, but HOW are you filtering data?

Should the query return rows that match the date exactly or are you...
