I lost an argument recently about why not everything should be NTEXT (we're on SQL 2005! Winning argument = "There's no difference in storage space used so converting wouldn't be worth it") I wonder if I should pass this email on?

Since we're soon "upgrading" to MS Office 2003, I don't think we're too worried about deprecation. I do enjoy it tho' when our sys admin emails with" "this gives me an error:
select * from table where customerName like '%Fred%'

I'm nowhere near smart, but I do take advantage of being a one-eyed man in the world of the blind!

King Jim!

PS: The error has nothing to do with Fred!

Are we talking about Vodka now?

If so, stay away from Absolut Mango...disgusting

Pepar, maybe the only flavored vodka that doesn't taste like garbage

but I digress

Deprecated's a funny word

Makes M$ sound so...so...intelligent
