  • RE: Talking baseball

    Rangers look good, Rockies in first place, and Yankees playing well, despite getting shut out last night.

    Looks like we have some teams roaring ahead out of the gate, others really...

  • RE: Subscribed Topics list

    Interesting. Not necessarily a hard query, but I'll have to see if I can fit it in somewhere.

    Any other threadzian going to be at sqlbits ?

    Yarp, Saturday.

    I was hoping to come, but the timing was bad. If it were 2-3 weeks later, I'd...

  • RE: Running a sql server 2008 job to back up to network folder

    Can you run the "dir" job from Agent and have that work?

    It's definitely a strange error. It's almost like you have some token or kereberos issue with the job.

    If...

  • RE: PatIndex

    Do the select without the cast to datetime and see what data comes back. If you convert everything to varchar at first, you can start to look for places where...

  • RE: Social Networking Prowess

  • RE: Some kind of DR / backup solution ???

    If you keep the databases in simple mode, you can really only DR from the night before. That's OK, but really ask your payroll people if the db fails at...

    CREATE TABLE [HumanResources].[EmployeeDepartmentHistory](

  • RE: Certification...Yes or No?

    The Transcender practice exams I have seen in the past used to contain the actual questions on the MS exams. There was a time when Transcender, or at least someone...

  • RE: Password for Database level in sql server 2008

    You can use an application role to limit permissions inside the database to an application, but that does not alleviate some type of login, and as Gail mentioned, it does...

  • RE: Some kind of DR / backup solution ???

    Mirroring would move the connections automatically, though it does require a more regular connection between the systems, or a good log size managements strategy.

    Clustering isn't likely what you need, though...

  • RE: Floats and abuses, and business to technical conflicts

    Stephen's suggestions is what I've done in the past for similar situations, though usually for me it's been diff char sizes that exploded things.
