    While flipping through this month’s SQL Server Magazine (December 2010), I came across what I thought was a very interesting top 10 list of “Favorite Go-To Websites for SQL Server Solutions”. I could not find the list on the website, but if you have the December 2010 magazine ...

  3. Mr. LaRock Goes To Washington

  7. SSIS Package Annotation in Denali

    If you are anything like me, you document your SSIS packages for those who may have to maintain them after you move on to other projects. One thing that have disliked is how annotations worked in SSIS. There is no word wrap setting to automatically wrap to the next line ...

  8. Certificate Based Application Roles

    What if I told you that you could sign an assembly that your Windows application uses with a certificate, load that certificate into SQL Server and then define rights on that user-assembly combination? The perfect world where a user would have different rights based on the application they are running ...

    A while ago I blogged about using xp_cmdshell to execute a PowerShell script in SQL Server and return a result set. At that time I was using PowerShell V1, but now with PowerShell V2 I can clean this up a little. The improved version uses the built-in PowerShell V2 cmdlet ...
