  • RE: Using xp_cmdshell to grant fulladmin (read/write/xecute/full control) to a sql user

    The Xp_cmdshell account, which is the SQL service account or proxy, likely doesn't have rights to grant permissions.

    Not the point the article writer is trying to make. He is a data analyst like myself, and recently experienced with more databases than just SQL Server. (It's more...

    Informal survey before I make a fool of myself in an article (again)

    podmate (7/2/2015)

    There was stress in the job, but we were all very well trained and worked as a team.

    BL0B_EATER (7/2/2015)

    I downloaded SQL 2016 - SSMS the other day. I really like. Intellisense seems to be more "feature-rich". Yet to try out live query stats.
