Thank you SO MUCH! That worked perfectly.

I had tried to kill the process using the Management Studio interface without success. But for some reason issuing the command in the query...

Here's one suggestion, although it depends on how timely you want all of your articles to be over the holidays: It's too late for this year, but for next year,...

To me, it seems that spam is analogous to mimicry in the biological world. Just as...
