  • RE: Get the full name

    That was an easy one, thanks! You could also solve this query with CONCAT. 🙂

  • RE: Partition elimination and variables

    It's a classic implicit conversion issue. SQL Server will never convert a "bigger" datatype to a smaller.

  • RE: Column aliases

    Well it's still possible to write the alias in 12 different ways in SQL2014 (deprecated or not) 🙂

    SELECT object_id AS test

    FROM sys.columns AS mt;

    SELECT object_id AS 'test'

    FROM sys.columns...

  • RE: Missing indexes in current requests

    SQL Guy 1 (10/7/2014)


    Great script, I liked it. Even though it returns results only for queries that being executed at the current moment, it's good.

    From Text field I can...

  • RE: Friday Shirts

    Interesting SQL server question! I learned something new today. 🙂

  • RE: DONEPROC

    Interesting question! Never heard of it and got It wrong, but I learned something new. Thank you!

  • RE: Random unions

    TomThomson (10/23/2014)


    Amusing question; the use of RAND is an interesting distraction for a question that is really about UNION ALL and nothing else.

    I agree! It would have been UNION instead...

  • RE: Template parameters

    Thanks for the easy one. 🙂 I've used template files a lot and I love them.

    paul.knibbs (10/15/2014)


    I mean, the error about incorrect syntax near "FROM" isn't one of the available answer options, so it should be pretty obvious that's not what was intended.

    But I must say that I do not use this feature in my coding.
