• SQL Server Optimizing datediff

  Hey all, I run a monthly delete that's recurring; delete data > 2 months old. For December, I thought up two ways to do this: Query 1: delete from daily_statements where daily_statements < '2006-10-01' Query 2: delete from daily_statements where datediff(month, statement_date, getdate()) <= 3 I've plugged in Query 2 into the job step because it can be run at any time without having to change the value, but it took 22 minutes to delete 2.5 million rows versus 4 minutes to delete 5.3 million rows for the other one. Is query 2 the best it can be Thanks! Please don't use the local variable approach. It does not allow the optimizer to do parameter sniffing for example. And since the batch is optimized as a whole an estimate wil ...Show All

• SQL Server I ran a update quey by mistake

  With out any BEGIN Transaction statement , i ran a update query. I had to update just one record using the "Where field='abc'" But i happened to miss that. Is there any chance of recovery can i use the transaction logs to bring back the records before the update A quick answer is appreciated. Sahel Hi Sahel. No way to get it back directly using native Sql tools/operations without performing some restore type operations. Best way may be, if you have a standard backup structure in place, take a log backup immediately, then restore a copy of your database side-by-side with the existing db (using a different db name), and restore logs up to the point in time right before you ran th ...Show All

• SQL Server Need help from someone who is an expert w/t-sql

  I am trying to create a query that will determine if a field has a specific value first. If that field contains the specified value then use that value, else determine if it contains a secondary value. A row the contains the first value takes precedence if one exists so it is not a straight 'OR' situation. I have no control over the data in the way the tables in the db are designed or I would have done it a lot differently, I just have to work with the data as is. Any advice would be most welcome. If I come up with a solution on my own and anyone is interested, let me know and I will send you the solution.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Can't run source code from VB textbooks

  I own several VB 2005 texts with source code downloaded from the publishers' websites. Unfortunately, about 80% of the time, I can't run the code in VB2005 Express. There are no build errors, but when I attempt to run the project in the debugger, I get the following exception message: "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualBasic, Version=2.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=6315780d5082271f' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified." Is there any way to overcome this problem Yep, sounds like a bad install.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Saving OLEObject content to a file

  Greetings, colleagues I have spent quite some time on trying to solve the following problem: I get the OLEObject from the Excel worksheet, e.g. Excel.OLEObject myOLEObject = (Excel.OLEObject) currentSheet.OLEObjects(1); I need to to save this myOLEObject object back to file on hard drive (in my Excel 2003 managed code extension). The only thing I know about the OLE object is that it was created in Excel 2003 through "Insert -> Object -> Create from file". So the exact data type of this OLE object is unknown. Casting it to Bitmap or Word document does not solve the problem. I.e. it may be a bitmap image, a word document, etc. including a generic binary file of unknown format. Manually an Excel 2003 user ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do you tell the IDE that an entry in the collection has been deleted?

  I was finally able to serialize the collection property of my usercontrol. It contains complex object. It does add and update correctly and populates the collection properly. The only thing I can't figure out is when an entry in the collection has been deleted. Right now the IDE will just detach the object from the collection, but leaves the orphaned object reference in InitializeComponent(). Same thing happens when I set the collection property to (none). It removes the collection object, but it leaves the orphaned objects. Any ideas My problem is design time when I dropped my user control to form. I think I'm still missing a Serialization Design-Time Attibute or something. The collecti ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Features or Bugs in VSTO.

  Are these features or bugs I've found two things that there may be a reason for but I can think of none. 1. If you have a form field in a word document project that has a default value in it. You cannot populate that bookmark in code with a bookmarkname.Text = "AAA" line of code. It gives you an error along the lines of "Out of Range" or something like that. 2. If I am trying to populate a data island from code on a web server. I open the the document file with a file stream and then assign it to a "ServerDocument" class as shown below If File.Exists(BlankDocumentPath) = False Then Return ("File " & BlankDocumentPath & " Does not exist") Exit Function ...Show All
