  • RE: Grouping not Grouping

    Jason Selburg (10/20/2007)


    Man, my eyes are going bad too! Now correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the statement fail without having the Committed_Fund_Item_ID in the GROUP BY? :hehe:

  • RE: Adding workdays

    Jeff Moden (10/19/2007)


    You've already run into one of my best friends on this forum and I should warn newbies like you about folks like him... he has absolutely no manners,...

  • RE: how to remove numbers from strings?

    Sergiy (10/19/2007)


    David, for some reason I did not have any doubts about you and some other folks.

    😉

    SQL 2k5 made for programming tools users having no math background, just like you.

  • RE: how to remove numbers from strings?

    Jack Corbett (10/19/2007)


    I really enjoyed the thread. A lot of good information and no one got personal as I have seen happen when people have different ideas in a...

  • RE: Convert positive number to a negative

    Keep in mind that many of these solutions handle negative numbers differently, so until the OP comes back to comment, there's no telling which method will work for him. He...

  • RE: how to remove numbers from strings?

    Probably 2k5 is more comfortable for procedural language programmers, but for those who understand relational model and use to operate with datasets it's useless.

  • RE: Return a Table from a Stored Procedure

    In addition to what mrpolecat stated, a far more typical option in your environment would be to actually let the report use the resultset from the stored proc, instead of...

  • RE: Need help

    And if we do end up doing this for you (again), let us know what grade we got, even though "it's not homework".

    Actually, I take it back. I can't speak...

  • RE: importing power point file

    The answer probably depends greatly on what you want to do with it once it's there, how many times you'll do this, etc.

  • RE: To put a string in a variable & use it in a WHERE?

    As with any dynamic SQL solution, I always highly recommend that you print out the string to execute long before you actually execute it. You can take the printed version,...

  • RE: system table problems

    It sets that property in 2000 (if my ancient brain cells are remembering correctly). It can also be set in other ways, but that is still a moderately well-known undocumented proc.

  • RE: Creating tables in tempdb

    It's also useful for ad hoc results, as cleaning up databases is a pain when you have to determine whether a given table is really needed or not. It's sort...

  • RE: decimal

    Have you checked how it's stored in the table? If it's 5.5 there, the problem is in formatting the value in the app itself. If it's 6 in there, the problem...

  • RE: decimal

    While Antares686 is likely correct as to your specific problem, the way I attack these types of things is start at the app to find out what populates the column...

  • RE: date

    Are you sure it's 36161, jp? That seems like a rather arbitrary date that isn't the beginning of any julian variation I'm aware of (it's 1800-12-30).
