Question of the day answers

    When the answer is given to yesterday's question of the day, I find it quite annoying when it is like:

    Answer: All of the above.

    Explanation: The answer is all of the above.

    There is no easy way to see what "All of the above" is.  I like question of the day to introduce me to new material so I don't normally don't even look at the possible answers when the question comes out but wait until there is an answer that will give me some information.  If there is going to be such a brief answer and explanation, at least give us a link to the options.

    Which question is this for?

    The question was:

    You want to configure heterogeneous replication between an Oracle Publisher and a SQL Server Subscriber. You want to configure a snapshot replication for this purpose. Unlike SQL Server, you cannot publish all the Oracle objects. What objects in Oracle can you publish?

    The answer was posted in the 8/30/07 Newsletter.

    Thanks, I'll correct that. Try to avoid not giving a real explanation, but I probably spaced, got lazy, or was in a hurry.

    Apologies.

    Steve,

    Would there be a way to put a link to the choices on a multiple choice question?  That would cover when the explanation is brief. 

    I would like to say I appreciate all the effort you have put in to making SqlServerCentral a top notch web site.  Thanks.

    Steve
