  • RE: The Daily Commute

    Well I have it easy now, but the best commute was riding my bike down the beach 2 miles to bartend. Lots of scenery!!

  • RE: What's an MVP?

    I know quite a few MVPs that work regularly with MySQL, Oracle, and DB2. They sell what the client wants, though I'm not sure if they participate in communities for...

  • RE: What's an MVP?

    I agree with the limits. It does seem to encourage the same people year after year, although I've seen some people dropped and new ones come on. It might encourage...

  • RE: 70-443... a grinder!

    Most of the information you need is in the case study, so I skim them to get an idea of what's there, then read a question and refer back to...

  • RE: What's an MVP?

    As an aside, the MVPs do not all agree. We have a private newsgroup and there can be some very passionate arguments about how to do things or what the...

  • RE: Brain Dead Moment

    What's the issue?

    sp_change_users_login?

  • RE: Windows Job Schdule

    SQL Server creates it's own error log. Nothing for you to do.

    What "import" feature are you using? If it's SSMS, the Data Import, it just creates and SSIS package to import things. It doesn't necessarily read your metadata to determine it's...

  • RE: Latest security patch

    I think it's the same one released under two different code paths. QFE is a quick fix, usually for one customer. The equivalent is a GDR, general release.

  • RE: The Core

    If we want to consider the sky is falling, then the #1 skill for a junior DBA is to know you're in over your head and call me or MS...

  • RE: Headline for Jul 8, 2008 - Professional Certification for DBA

    Brad Magahee, SQL Server MVP, the guy in the ads up top.

    He wrote an article for Simple-Talk (has done a couple editorials here as well) that we linked to.

  • RE: Installing SQL 2005 Standard on Windows XP Profession SP2

    There should be a management tools section, which is where SSMS would be.

    Is that not visible?
