MSSQL equivalent for MYSQL

    Yuk. And that's a feature?

    I can see how it could be useful for storing flag like things. Now that I think about it, it is just storing a bit mask and a lookup table that corresponds to the bitmask, so it wouldn't be as difficult to replace as I first thought.

    I wouldn't think of it as a feature but the LU table and the bitmask idea is not too terrible.
