  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Lynn Pettis (5/22/2009)


    I like watching professional soccer. You rarely see the coaches getting angry on the touchline with the officials (not saying the don't).

    You rarely see anything happen in...

  • RE: Boy Scouts of America

    John,

    Thanks, and there are a few people here in scouts. Grant Fritchey leads a Cub Scout group. Congratulations to you on your Eagle as well. Something to be very proud...

  • RE: scheduling a job

    I don't think it's more or less efficient storing the value in a table.

    Calculating it is a function call, no I/O, minimal CPU to perform.

    The query writing to a table...

  • RE: Plan Optomizer choseing the wrong index

    The only way I know of for the plan in 2000 is a screen shot, and if it doesn't fit on one, multiple ones.

    The text plans are harder to read,...

    No one is going to believe this, but a friend of mine & I were very minor characters in one of the Destroyer novels. We were introduced and...

  • RE: SQL 2008 - DBA

    You would have to go into more detail. not just the script, but how does the file get there? Is it copied? Perhaps it's not completely copied when the procedure...

  • RE: Database size history

    I've taken an opposite tact. Often I've just tracked the file sizes of backups.

    Either way works, just be consistent.

  • RE: scheduling a job

    Didn't think of that, Greg, and it's not bad. It is maintenance if you change the job, though you could abstract things with stored procedures.

    Adding/removing a day means just adding...

  • RE: Why shouldn't you use keywords as column names?

    It fails in some places, with some keywords, but you are right. For the most part, SQL Server can figure it out.

    However, it also messes up color coding, and confuses...

  • RE: SQL Server Authentication Issue

    So the access used to work with people being members of Group1?

    Are you sure it wasn't through some other method that got revoked?

    I'm not enough of an AD guru to...

  • RE: Database size history

    Jeffrey is correct, it isn't stored.

    the closest thing is to check the backup file sizes. There is a size stored in msdb.dbo.backupset, which gives you an "idea" of data size....

  • RE: Interesting SQL Puzzle Problem

    Two simple ways from me. There might be more elegant, but off the top of my head.

    1. control access to saving by removing insert for users on the tables, use...

  • RE: Cloud computing overview article

    That is interesting. Thanks for the link.

  • RE: Best Report Writer/Most Popular Report Writer

    Reporting Services.

  • RE: Switching to MySQL or SQL Server Express: What is best for an ISV?

    Do any of the items above matter to you? Limits on SQL Server? Windows only?

    If not, what do you have more expertise in from a development standpoint?
