    Help with query on huge table

    Dagon- You are correct, what I was planning to do with my SQL was to build a table with date ranges. I would have had a "where device id is not null" clause in there. Im currently trying to figure out how big of a problem this is. Thanks for the nudge towards the right direction.

    Simple proc question

    So it looks like it was the declaration of variable that was causing me an issue. When it was suggested that I put in a length, I had a space in between the variable and the length. When I removed the space. Everything worked. Thanks for all the help.

    Thanks so much for the help. I knew it was something simple but I am not an Access guy or VB. Basically what happened was about 5 called sub routines deep, there was a column for city which was set to 20 characters. Well Hot Springs National Park didn't fit. THANKS AGAIN....BIG STAR FOR YOU!

    Forget that last statement, It sets the batchdate back to null on the exception handling. Sorry for the confusion.

    One more thing to add. I know its not updating two tables in SQL Server that it is hitting in the above code, so the error is happening before that.

    What is the best way to update a large table with a sequence

    I have a partitioned table with about 500 million rows. We need to add am artificial key to the table. What would you think would be the fastest way? I know I can just do it in a cursor but I would think that would take forever. Any suggestions?
