I’ve been volunteering with my local user group for awhile, and have been preaching community on this blog. One of the best ways to get involved, and learn for that matter, is to participate in SQL Saturdays. On The Wait List Recently we decided to host a second SQL Saturday Event later this year. It [...] The Problem Yesterday I demonstrated how to use T-sql to update the Customer Table (SLCDPM) to avoid hours of manual labor. I mentioned that you should always make a backup of the table before running an update statement in case you’ve made an error. One of my readers, Kim, astutely asked me how to use [...] One of the primary values a good DBA brings a company is in automating tedious, time-consuming tasks.

This one-two punch was followed by a long pause and then, “They’re going to remove a lot of my lower jaw next week…” People who [...] As I’ve mentioned previously, I’ve been using FastForms for years and I have one basic rule that I never, ever break. I never make changes in FastForms with users in the system. M2M says you are safe to do so, but painful experience has shown me that this is unwise. The problem is that the [...]
Hoping to find an everlasting Gob Stopper. Last year I pined away reading all of the tweets from last year’s PASS. It was cute, but I meant what I said. I made a promise to myself that I would go to PASS 2010. Well, last night I pulled the trigger and purchased my ticket to go [...] |
