    Scanning files

    Hi harebrain, I need just the number of files and the total size (statistics), not the individual filenames (evidence). Your DOS' Dir command gives both, we will just parse the info that we need. We are not looking for who has the new Carmen Electra's picture!!! :) About XML: Probably I did...

    Scanning files

    Your post is an interesting idea. This brings the next ideas: 1.- Users are requested to lock their computers when they are away, locking is enforced also by policy after 15 minutes of inactivity.

    Populating text index takes too long....

    Catadmin, mrdenny Thanks for your respones. The state of the database is 99% fixed data alredy. So differential population will be fast. The thing here is this is a partial test database, about 1/10 of the production database. When doing the full population mssearch seems very linear when...

    Populating text index takes too long....

    Hi, I am text indexing a table with 12Gb of text, 300K records. I am running SQL 2K SP 4 on a Dell 2650 dual 3Ghz CPUs, 4Gb memory. A full population takes about 3 hours, the question here is mssearch.exe is using 100Mb memory and only 3-4% CPU usage. The server has plenty of resources left...

    Restore an archived database under a different name?

    Hi, Here it is the scenario: We create .cab files from one specific cube. Management is asking to bring back a very old .cab in order to compare against the actual cube information. When trying to restore the .cab the only option it gives us is to restore the cube with the original name. Can I...

    Updating multiple rows

    Donutman, thank you for your comments. Regarding the need of SUM(), now it is obvious that a 1 to 1 is a must. Wondering why the other exercises did not performed as desired I found this line of thinking: Lets say we are inside the update statement where at any given target row has a set of 2...
