  • RE: NTILE

    Sorry, but I think the answers are not worded correctly (so there is no correct answer in that list), so I selected the one that seemed least incorrect. And I...

  • RE: Fun with real and float

    Mighty (6/30/2013)


    Probably Hugo can explain us why the maximum precision is 7 for 4 byte storage. 😀

    Floating point numbers are stored in "exponential notation" - that is the...

  • RE: Fun with real and float

    The precision of a REAL is always 7.

    FLOAT(24) is a synonym for REAL. Don't understand why this is not explicitely mentioned in the MSDN article.

    Probably Hugo can explain us...

  • RE: SSMS Error Message

    Hugo Kornelis (5/27/2013)


    True, but since there is no way to manually apply formatting in the messages pane (as far as I know), the replacement text you type would still be...

  • RE: SSMS Error Message

    Nice start of the week.

    One remark though:

    ...if you run code that generates an actual error

    This not only works when an error has been generated. Any message that is...

    I envision a day when people will cite HKOL instead of BOL.

  • RE: CHARINDEX()

    Hi, this was a nice question, however I don't fully agree with the wording

    For Smith, we don't substring it, since S is the first character

    SUBSTRING is still used, but since...

  • RE: INTO Identities

    Slawomir Swietoniowski (5/12/2013)


    This question is stated wrong, cont(...) does not have any alias for the name, so, while you will try to execute this code, you will get:

    Msg 1038, Level...

  • RE: Nested triggers 2

    It also might be because it is still early here, but what is the point exactly?

    The view definition is such that...

  • RE: QUERY and TABLE HINTS

    Richard Warr (4/29/2013)


    The answer is correct. It's the question that's wrong. I'm sure the question should be "Which DO NOT require WITH" in which case everything falls into place.

    I agree...

  • RE: Endpoints

    Shouldn't TCP in the answers be TSQL?

    TCP is one of the two protocols that can be used, TSQL is a payload type.

  • RE: LEFT JOIN

    Sorry to say that I also think that the wording of the answers is poor, and that the correct answer should be b.

    Danny Ocean (3/21/2013)


    Hi,

    Sorry, but i am unable to understand question completely.:ermm:

    If you increase varchar length then it will give right answer. Please try below T-sql statements

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,GETDATE(),20)

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,GETDATE(),21)

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,GETDATE(),106)

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,GETDATE(),107)

  • RE: EXECUTE

    Toreador (2/15/2013)


    How long until the first complete that the correct answer is None of the Above, because there's no such database as AdventureWorks2008 😉

    That was until your reply. 😀

    But in...

  • RE: Creating Tables

    Maybe another option for a(n) (in)correct answer: "Only statement 2 and 3 will succeed and 1 row will be returned...".

    But probably I am the only one still having SQL Servers...
