Scheduling Jobs in SQL Server Express
As we all know SQL Server 2005 Express is a very powerful free edition of SQL Server 2005. However it does not contain SQL Server Agent service. Because of this scheduling jobs is not possible.

Maybe we want to schedule daily backups, database reindexing, statistics updating, etc. This is why I wanted to have a solution based only on SQL Server 2005 Express and not dependent on the hosting company. And of course there is one based on our old friend the Service Broker.

Identities and Sequences II
In thinking about the differences between the identity property and a sequence object, which of these two guarantees that there are consecutive numbers (according to the increment) inserted in a single table?
