Table creation: DECLARE @dataTable TABLE (Item VARCHAR(255), Quantity INT, WeekStart DATE) DECLARE @headerTable TABLE (Item CHAR(4), Date1 VARCHAR(25), Date2 VARCHAR(25), Date3 VARCHAR(25)) HeaderTable actually has columns Date1 through Date52.

If I install the latest 1/12/21 security patch, will it "include" the patch for 2/11/20, or do I need to install both of them (in sequence)? |
