    Yes! Implicit convertion is evil.

    Even worst when converting dates and using fancy collations and no US-en.

    Fancy collations 😛 Tomorow morning in Bois de Boulogne 😀

  • RE: Table Value Constructor 1

    Nice constructor. Alas we are limited by older version.

  • RE: SET option hierarchy

    Once upon a time I had a dream to write a QotD with a correct answer "It depends". I succeeded.

    Now I'm going to imagine one with two answers "All of...

  • RE: SET option hierarchy

    The leprechaun answer is not correct? :crying:

    I want me pot of gold...

    Of course not. The rainbow table is not created by leprechaun, they only use it to hide...

    What's this Exademon... err... Hexawitch... err.. Hexademinali stuff?

    It's not stuff because it's a verb not a noun. To hexadecimal is to cast a...

  • RE: Hex Fun

    Thank You, nice one.

    Took a while, but it was easy. 2011%16 > 1, there was just one answer.

    Now I wait three weeks for the beginning of the year of dragon.

    Probably I will use right joins and nested joins only in case of self-defense. I prefer the readability and I think from left to right.

    Absolutely true. This...

    PS: There's even one more way to achieve the intended change:

    UPDATE TOP(1) Table1

    SET Column1 = 0

    And better yet, no one whining and whimpering about "gimme my points".
