Hi, I have the following sql statement. I originally had the statement with two INNER JOINS but in some situations was getting an error so changed the last INNER JOIN to a LEFT OUTER JOIN (as is seem below). This seemed to work but i am unsure why and would like to know in case it falls over again. Why did the two INNER JOINS not work, and am I correct to use the LEFT OUTER JOIN in this context. As you can see the table 'tblStaff1_2'...

I apologize if this has been asked before- I searched google but could not find a concrete answer. I recently inherited a database whose t-sql code is written in a format that I find difficult to read (versus the format I have used for years). I have tested the queries below using the SQL Profiler, and both have identical costs. Is there any advantage of one format over the other?

I have an 'extract' table which has 1853 rows when I ask for all rows where period_ = 3. The allocation table for info has 210 rows. I have two scripts below. The first script where I specify a period on a join, brings back 1853 lines and works. The second script where I specify the period in the...

Hi, I have a stored procedure that uses JOINs to return columns from multiple tables. I also have another stored proc that that takes a series of params and updates multiple tables. I used the framework to auto-generate a table adapter specifying both stored procs as Get/Fill and Update. The problem is that columns from the JOINed table seem to marked as 'read-only' so trying to update a row results in an exception. BTW, by default a...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
