I had to answer to this one myself, this is too funny. My stored procedure was calling another function I wrote that had a similar name 
It was a pleasure wasting everybody's time !  ;P

Hi,
I am using Enterprise Library April 2007, and wanted to know what DbType is a uniqueidentifier data type?? Like when I have for example:
db.AddInParameter(command, "@FirstName", DbType.String, info.FirstName); // Required
How would I do it for a uniqueidentifier data type?
Please can someone help me?

Hi,
You should use DbType.Guid
db.AddInParameter(command, "@FirstName", DbType.Guid, info.FirstName);

Hi Ivan
You would need to install Oracle (you may be able to get away with the Express edition), then attach the DBF files. Once you have an Oracle database up-and-running then you can use DTS or SSIS to transfer the data to your SQL-Server instance.
If you have access to an Oracle DBA then you will save yourself a bunch of time.
Otherwise you may find that one of the Oracle-specific forums will be able to provide more detailed advice on attaching Oracle databases - just don't tell them that you intend to rip the data in SQL-Server cos that will seriously hurt their feelings

Andy thank you for instructions ! 
I have had same thinking as you ... so I have started downloading oracle 10g express and SQL developer. Any forums you would recommend ?
Thanks allot!

I've never used any Oracle forums - but if I did then Ask Tom[^] would be the first place I would look.
Good luck.

This is old, but I couldn't resist.
Instead of getting his technical input from forums or even from Tom Kyte, he should be doing what Tom himself would say--RTFM!
Kind regards,

Dear Team,
We face the issue of Process Blocking in SQL2000 very often which leads to the show stopper of the application for which we will have to kill the Process manually , is there any was to find why the Process blocking in SQL coz of the application or is there any other work around to fix this issue.
Thanks & Regards,

Do you mean that SQL sessions are blocking on other user's sessions because of locking?
This can be detected using the "sp_who2" stored procedure. The normal ways of reducing lock contention are:- Keep your transactions short.
- Check your "isolation level". Some frameworks use the "serializable" isolation - which severely impacts concurrency.
- For reports, consider using "read uncommitted" isolation.
- If your transactions access multiple tables then try to update tables in the same sequence.
Hope that helps. This artical[^] may help.
Regards
Andy

Remove it and add it in where clause.

Hi I am new to database design and I would like your opinions on my database. I am creating a database to hold website member info. In my register page I ask users who wish to become members to supply the following infos.
First Name, Last Name, Profession, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone Number, Email, User Name, Password
From the info above, I've created a database called Members, a table called Users, and another table called ContactInfo.
Users ContactInfo
_______________ ___________________
|UserID | |Email |
_______________ ___________________
|Email | |Phone |
_______________ ___________________
|FirstName | |Address |
_______________ ___________________
|LastName | |City |
_______________ ___________________
|UserName | |State |
_______________ ___________________
|Password | |Zip |
_______________ ___________________
Do you see any problem with the above database? Please point out any problems that you see. Thank you in advance for your help.

The two tables aren't linked to each other. How will you retrieve user's contact info given his/her userID?
|
|
|
|

Hi
1. Why two tables?
2. Are you storing more than 1 record in ContactInfo table for a particular user?
3. If you are storing more than 1 contact Info, link should be maintained between those two tables. Users table should have one more column i.e., UserID to maintain unique row. This column should be added to ContactInfo Table so that you can retrieve contact details based on UserID.
See definitions of Normalization for more information. There are three normal forms in database design.
For best example, have a look at Orders and Order Details tables of Northwind database and check the common column between these two table.
