Over-Engineering
Steve Jones thinks that we often over-engineer software, trying too hard to consider every possibility rather than getting it close.

We've all had them. One of those stored procedures that is huge and contains complex business logic which may or may not be executed. These procedures make it an absolute nightmare when it comes to debugging problems because they're so complex and have so many logic offshoots that it's very easy to get lost when you're trying to determine the path that the procedure code took when it ran. Fortunately Profiler lets you define custom events that you can raise in your code and capture in a trace so you get a better window into the sub events occurring in your code.

You've probably all noticed a change since SQL Server 2000 with respect to objects: formerly DB.ObjectOwner.Object ,
You probably already know that SQL Server 2005 SP2 has been released. This is a good thing if you are in need of one of the changes that are included in this service pack. In a previous tip, SQL Server 2005 - Service Pack 2, we took a look at what was to be included in this second service pack for SQL Server 2005. The question that you often face is should I install this service pack. One thing to note before you install SP2 is that there is no way to uninstall it once it is installed.
