    Grouping Logic

    Yeah, I know. Problem is the front end doesn't allow formatting like it should, so I'm stuck with SQL. For anybody coming along who is interested doing something like this, this really nasty query seems to work. select BookType, min(book) as BegBook, max(book) as EndBook from ( select...

    Grouping Logic

    This seems like it should be simple, but I can't come up with a simple solution. I want to turn this Book Type |Book Deed Record 1 Deed Record 2 Deed Record 3 Deed Record 5 Mortgage Record 1 Into Book Type |Book Deed Record 1 - 3 Deed Record 5 Mortgage Record 1 Any ideas?

    need help concatenating a string.....thanks

    Got a paren in the wrong place I think. RETURN 'C' + right('0000' + CONVERT(varchar(10), @id)) Should be RETURN 'C' + right('0000' + CONVERT(varchar(10), @id),4) Is that right?

    Maintaining an 'air-gap' with subordinates

    I'm really really young in the workforce. So what I'm saying is probably worthless, but I ran into a situation where I stepped back and evaluated the leadership in my company, and tried to figure out why I didn't like it. I came to the conclusion that it boils down the priorities of a manager...

    How Can I Kill an External HD?

    Uh...no. Preferably in a way that nobody will know I did anything. Afraid a hammer would be a bit obvious. Maybe I should hook it up to 240 volts, I wonder if that'd do it?

    How Can I Kill an External HD?

    Another dev turned in an external HD as bad. He tried copying data to it, & when he hit 100GB it gave him errors and refused to write any more data to the HD. I suspect it is going out, and don't think it's a good idea to use it. If it goes out, it's going to cost us at LEAST $80, which is...

    Backup Solutions

    Our company works with lots of images. We have about 3-5TB of images on our production server at any one time. When we are finished with the images, we back them up to DVD's and delete them off the server. A while back, our HW dept was re-building the array, and we were supposed to be able to...

    Reading& Restoring the Master File Table?

    Is there some type of tool out there I can use to read the master file table? Also, is there any possible way to retrieve old versions of the MFT...does the system restore point store the file? Would it store the file for just the OS drive, or all drives?

    I don't think that's going to work...the result has to be based on the priority, the man hours it's going to take, and who else might be working on it... IE Build a doghouse 24 John 1 Should be 3 days, not one... Build a doghouse 20 John 1 Feed the Dog...

    Can Compare Binary Data?

    I am attempting to figure out if images I have stored in a SQL table are .tif or .jpg. Looking at the data, it is easy to tell that all of the .jpg images begin with a certain pattern (0xFFD8FF). Is there any way I can cast the image as another data type, and compare it? I've tried this...
