    I created a db user [BuiltinAdminUser] in multiple databases....

  • RE: Security for the Dev Team

    Thanks for your replies and input, everyone. I realized after I made the post that it could quickly spiral out of control into a dba's vs developers free-for-all. ...

  • RE: TRY - CATCH with multiple errors

    BTW,

    I found this related submission on MS Connect: Incorrect error number passed to catch block

    Please go there and vote for it as an important issue. (You'll have to...

    Derrick Smith (10/12/2010)


    In the step of the job on the Advanced tab, specify an output file (.txt). It will log all errors to that.

  • RE: Using INSERT INTO…SELECT to Bulk Load Data with Minimal Logging

    Followup...

    I'm really reluctant to drop and recreate indexes. Let's say another dba or developer changes the index (add/remove columns to/from the index, change the FILLFACTOR, etc). My code...

  • RE: SQL Server Agent - No Notifications Via Page

    Jack Corbett (3/24/2010)


    I always ask this , but hesitated since other email is getting through, but check your anti-virus settings. Sometimes it blocks email mass mailing worms.
