SELECT from SELECT
Hi! I remember seeing an example where you can do a select from a nested select, but I cannot seem to make it work. So it would be something like this: select max( name ) from ( select name from customer union select name from vendor ) Was I dreaming I saw that? Thanks!

Is there anything I can do to change this behavior? Thanks, Josh Manfred ...

Second SELECT-box doesn't show the selected value as SELECTED
Hi! I usually find what I look for in the other threads, but now I've spent two weeks searching and I still can't work this out, even though I'm sure the solution is easy:( Why doesn't my second dropdown-list show the selected value Arb (which shows in the url-window as for example myPage.asp?Ar=1976&Arb=1987) as selected? It manages to use the Ar-variable for the first SELECT-box, but the second box always has the first querystring-value selected, as if Arb="". I've also tried using a second sql-query, doing exactly as with the first SELECT-box, without success. Is ...

select into vs insert/select
I am looking for ways to speed up a procedure, which as a part of an overnight processing is called about 3000 times. The procedure begins by inserting about 20 rows into a temp table created outside of the proc. I thought that this may be better done by a select into statement because it is minimally logged etc. I am running the two versions of the statement (insert/select and select into) 2700 times on a quiet server and it seems that the insert/select is a bit faster, a second or two. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Is it my assumption about select into being fas...

Hello, I am using temp tables to generate a report. I created most of the temp tables and then use insert select.

Is there anything I can do to change this behavior? Thanks, Josh Manfred SELECT INTO #temp is a non-logged operation. This can provide a performance increase. However, one downside is that you may end up with a lot of contention on system tables. (I didn...

SELECT * vs. SELECT 1
I have always understood that when using the WHERE EXISTS clause, one codes it as WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM .....). Lately, I've been told that performance is better if the it's coded as ...(SELECT 1 FROM ...) (or SELECT '' .. - that is, to select some literal). Everything I've read says that SELECT * is used with EXISTS because there's no result set returned - it only evaluates into true or false. I'm now curious - is there an advantage to writing SELECT 1 instead of SELECT * with EXISTS? If so, how much of an advantage, & why do all of the SQL b...

Multi-select ListBox and Select All
Hi,I'm having an issue with some JS code for IE6 (no need for x-browser) and multi-select listbox.I'm trying to implement a Select All button.Current code is : function SelectAll(obj){ for (var i = 0; i < obj.options.length; i++) { obj.options[i].selected = true; } } which logically seems to work.  The problem I have is that this does not seem to work until I click the multi-select again.  It seems that although the options are marked as selected, the screen does not update to reflect this until something triggers it (in this case trying to click in ...
