RE: Package Log

  • Reply

Firstly, every package has at least one version. However, there may be package log records for versions that don't exist. If you don't get any records when executing that query then none of the packages have package logging enabled.

RE: DTS Connection - ANSI_NULLS setting

  • Reply

Still curious if seperating the settings statements in a seperate batch but on the same connection works. You could also try setting the default connection properties on the SQL server, but that will affect all connections that don't explicitly set those values.

RE: Replacing BCP with SQLBulkLoad

  • Reply

I have to agree with Mark on this one. I've watched people intentionally not listen to my mother because she was Japanese. It didn't matter that she was speaking perfectly clear English with only a hint of an accent. Because they said to themselves, "I won't understand her so I'm not going to even listen," […]

RE: Locking problem

This is all happening inside one explicit transaction: Begin Tran, Insert into Table1 (on connection1), Select max() from table1 (on connection2) then insert into table2 (on connection1).

RE: Object text too long error?????

  • Reply

You've hit the SQL 6.5 hard limit of 64k bytes in a stored procedure. (this limit became about 250mb with the introduction of SQL 7.0). This is 255 bytes of SP text * 255 rows in syscomments.
