I noticed the sarcasm and I noticed the 'NULL'. I've just been bothered by the thread. If the question would be this don't work:
SELECT blah FROM anywhere
UNION ALL
SELECT 'NULL'
.. I would give an answer, but only "Try for me"...
I also already saw "NULL" in columns. Equal to the question "I didn't wrote anything into the column. Why does it show NULL?" :crazy:

Thankfully, I have yet to see a column named [NULL].
Sorry, forgot: How often did you have a column "Group" or even "From" (and "To") 😀

Yep. You can do just about anything. I thought this was pretty amusing.

Just one thing missing:
DECLARE @t TABLE (Id INT, [*] VARCHAR(10))
INSERT INTO @t SELECT 1, 'abc'
SELECT [*] FROM @t
Hope The Thread forgives this kind of source code!

Bwaaaah, ha, ha. :laugh:
Amazing how fast the thread goes. I stopped to work for awhile and it takes forever to catch up.
Isn't great how you can do anything?
Oh, and I agree with Bob, I'd love it if everyone sounded like their Avatar. Of course that make Flo a tired and irritable Garfield.

Okay. I couldn't stop myself. Had to try it.
create table dbo.[Table] (
[Identity] int identity primary key,
[Column] varchar(100),
[*] int,
constraint [ForeignKey] foreign key ([*]) references dbo.[Table]([Identity]));
go
create index [Index] on dbo.[Table]([Column])
include ([*]);
Command(s) completed successfully.

You always have the option to avert your eyes and let others assist him.They might give him bad advice though.
He might even take it.
BTW, if I ever get to meet you and/or Barry, I will be crushed if you don't sound like your avatars.
While I do have a low voice, I am no James Earl Jones. Mind you I could do a mediocre impression in my younger days, but I don't have that kind of vocal range/control anymore. 🙁

Since I don't have an avatar, would that make me sound like Null?
Or should I go get an avatar of one hand clapping?

If I sounded like my avatar, it would be some kind of klaxon/alarm bell/buzzer/siren/end-of-the world noises. 😀
By the way, I'm now having to deal with a table named dbo.[Plan].

sorry, crushed you will be.I don't know. I met Barry at the PASS Summit last year. He sounded a bit like Darth... an avuncular friendly Darth, but Darth none the less.
Great. Now I have to go look up "avuncular" just so I can tell if Grant is really dissing me!
