  • RE: ETL

    I appreciate the extra flexibility of SSIS (over DTS) but my main complaint is it is very tender. Meaning, things that would have been passed over in DTS (say very...

  • RE: Triggers

  • RE: Employee Slurping

    I am not convinced there is that much gain to be made by taking action which demonstrates lack of trust in staff. Anyone in a dev or DBA position is...

  • RE: SQL Server 2008 - Disabling Full Text Search

    Wot DugyC sed. Fortunately I overrode my immediate impulse to get this one right!

  • RE: Query Plan Execution Order

  • RE: exceptional logic
