    SQL WHERE List Matches Any or All
    I saw a cool post recently from Jon Galloway called " Passing lists to SQL Server 2005 with XML Parameters ". This is a pattern I've used several times while building the new version of Channel 9 . If you'd like to learn how to pass...
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER Not Fast Enough With Large Result Set
    So I'm working on improving the performance of the next version of Channel 9 . For those of you not familiar, our team created a new platform for our department to build community sites (blogs, forums, videos, tagging, etc). You can see an example...
    Microsoft 10 Awakens!
    My boss, Jeff and Scoble just blogged about the launch of 10 ! The short answer for 10 is that it's a site for technology enthusiasts. That may seem very general, but it is on person. We will be covering pretty much anything that's interesting related...
    Attach Database Without Logins
    I was recently taking a SQL Server 2000 database and moving it over into SQL Server 2005. I did it the old fashioned way and unfortunately the login that our application used to access the DB wasn't in the new SQL Server. I was silly and tried adding...

    I'm Thinkin' Arby's, er...Objects
    Just a quick idea and some interesting posts I came across from Kent . He recently posted a message on recursive CTEs (great stuff if you haven't looked at it yet in SQL Server 2005). This allows you to bring back hierarchial data from say a single table...
    Change Object Owner in SQL Server
    A friend asked me if I remembered the system stored procedure to change the owner of an object. I didn't, so I googled it, but also came across a handy MSKB, INF: SQL Server Procedure to Change Object Owner
    SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services New Web Site Deployment
    Ok, before I say anything I just want to say that SQL Server Reporting Services is one of the coolest and crappiest things ever! :P It is a really neat product and tons easier than Crystal Reports, but man oh man is it hard to setup. Here's a great little...
