I hate the standard Query window that comes up when you select new query on a data connection in server explorer, I'd much rather have a T-SQL Editor come up. Is this possible?
Maybe not replace that functionality but a shortcut key or something that would bring up a T-SQL editor?
I am using my fluent nhibernate mappings to generate my MS SQL Server database.
I would like to be able to set a columns' description as part of this generation.
is there some way to tell sql server to use the (nolock) hint or every select in a stored procedure?
is pretty tiresome to add it to each an every select....
I use this mysql statement for concating description which has a length greater than 30..
select if (CHAR_LENGTH(description)>30,CONCAT(SUBSTRING(description,1,30),
'.....'),description) as description from table
How to change this mysql select into sql server select statement?
Is there a concise list of SQL Server stored procedure errors that make sense to automatically retry? Obviously, retrying a "login failed" error doesn't make sense, but retrying "timeout" does. I'm thinking it might be easier to specify which errors to retry than to specify which errors not to retry.
So, besides "timeout" errors, what other errors would be good candidates for automatic retrying?
Thanks!
Long story short is I tried to quickly update a single row in SQL Server using the Management studio and just typed UPDATE table SET column='value' and forgot the WHERE other_column='other_value' portion. Went for lunch, came back and theres 15 unread emails waiting for me. Happened about an hour ago, waiting for the database guy to come back to see when the last backup was. There's no magic UNDO feature though is there?

I have to create a C# application which displays unicode data in a textbox.
But the SQL server column storage has varchar data which contains unicode data. But since varchar is non-unicode based it displays character strings like "????????".
Well the problem i am facing is i cant change the column type as there are other dependent application running on it.
Hi guys,
If you are a new sql server dba and you just get an account of an instance. What would you do to know the instance and databases? How to quick get a general idea of this instance and databases?
Great thanks.
I am executing the following SQL statement on an indexed SQL Server 2008 R2 database.
SELECT * FROM mydatabase WHERE (CONTAINS(ColumnA,'"The Apple is red"'))
The problem is that it returns too many entries. It also returns entries where 'ColumnA' contains only one of the words ('Apple' or 'is' or 'red'...) and not only the entries which contains the exact phrase.
According to MSDN this should be the way to search for a phrase.
Thanks

I recently downloaded Visual Studio 2010 beta 2, and was told it included a TFS server. However I am unsure of if it has/can be installed, or how to start it up if it has been.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me please?
Thanks :)
Thanks for your help :)
