  • Good question. Made my brain ache. 😀

    When I realize that a command or option is deprecated, I stop to waste my time to use it.

    My thoughts: It should be an alert to check existing code to determine how much of it will have to be altered to comply with the new rules. Doing so in advance allows one to gradually upgrade and properly test existing functions, T-SQL etc., so as to be fully prepared for an upgrade. But that is just my opinion.

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

  • I guessed wrong. Figured I had a 1/128 chance of getting it right... can't win if you don't play.

  • It would have been much clearer if the instructions to run the insert twice were in the question not hidden in the comments - I would probably still have got this wrong but at least I might have stood a chance!

  • Great question, unfortunately I have not seen the comments with SET ANSI_PADDING ON/OFF. This is how I discovered I don't pay enough attention to comments 🙂

  • Only lesson, i got from this question is to read the comments more carefully (run twice...) and thats why its just another dodge question.

  • QOTD doesn't get any better than this! It's obvious you paid a lot of attention to detail when you were writing it. And, you required us to pay a lot of attention to detail when answering it. I appreciate the effort you put into this!

    I would certainly hope that you read things such as project/program requirements carefully, or do you have a valid resume available so you can hunt for a new job on short notice.

    Many thanks for the compliment.
