Could you also make a reproduction of the agile piece you did at TechEd Europe last year available here too? A classic now.

LOL! Awesome! :D

I'd love to hear some more elaborate stuff, as you get more acquainted with CoolEdit (sheesh, I remember using it back in '96...) :)

Excellent, Roy!!

May I offer these lyrics for your consideration?

SQL AGENT MAN!

(with apologies to Johnny Rivers)

... and here are the words, (c) Steve Rosenbach 2005....

<familiar, jangly guitar riff>

There's a man who lives his life for data,

And everyone he meets, they ask a favor

With every move he takes

A recordset he makes

Odds are he'll be queryin' tomorrow.

SQL AGENT MAN! SQL AGENT MAN!

They givin' you a password,

And takin' 'way your name.

Implement a clustered index one day,

Consolidatin' servers on the next day.

Oh, be careful with "sa"

Don't give yourself away

Odds are you'll be queryin' tomorrow.

[Refrain]

Beware the pretty GUI that you're findin'

It hides the data that needs normalizin'

And embedded SQL, too

There's lots for you to do.

Odds are you'll be queryin' tomorrow.

[Refrain]

<jangly guitar outro...>
