Useful for Idera SQLSafe backups. Great software but the GUI and maintenance plan generation are a little quirky. You can easily modify this for Full, Log, Encryption, etc. - Example:EXEC usp_SS_FullBackup @dbsvrname='YOURSERVERNAME',@dbname='Northwind',@path='C:\Northwind_Full_',@description='Full Backups for Northwind'

This function was originally contributed by another visitor and I corrected the logic to return the max position of the character if occurrence is greater than the max.I hope everyone finds it useful.

As we all know, BINARY_CHECKSUM ignores columns of data type IMAGE.This code is 100% compatible with MS original. That is, the result is identical.You can use it "as is", or you can use it to see that MS function does not produce that unique values one could expect.

Perl script that reports SQL Server AD accounts which are now longer valid by verifying the output of sp_validlogins system stored procedure against SID stored in AD. This is done to ensure only accounts that do not exist are reported since sp_validlogins will only check the name and not SID against AD. Accounts that are […]

This is another type of split function which disects 8000 byte varchar with given delimeter and returns table with disected values.It does that with single select statement (internally looped), without using explicit while loop.Works pretty fast
