    I can't believe I spent as much time as I did on this question.

    Pretty much what I did (see my post earlier in the thread)....

  • RE: Query Plan Execution Order

    Looks like I am the first to get it right! 😀

    Makes a change.

    I am normally the last person to get it wrong.

    Nice question, with lots of interesting articles.

  • RE: Order By Clause

    Ok, own question answered - compatibility level was set to SQL Server 2000 (80) (Don't ask me why, as I don't know...). Changed to 2005, and the query now executes...

    However, it doesn't - it returns 2010-11-29...
