Is it possible to add notes to the Queries in SQL, similar to how in VB you can pre-fix notes with a ' and they will be ignored by the parser... I'm trying to write down what each query does in my database so I dont hafta rely on a text-file on my desktop to remind me (incase I loose my computer)... Thanks :)
 
If you are using Stored Procedures to execute the SQL then you can put comments using "--" before the commment.

I haven't been able to get this to work using Views

Both should work.

-- this is a comment
Declare var1 int -- this is a comment

/* this is a comment */
Declare var1 int /* this is a comment */
 
Kewl :) Now I can let SQL remember what the query does for me... LOL
