If you have been reading my last blog posts, you know that I’m currently working on a SQL code migration from Firebird to SQL Server.
The client provided the scripts with all modules (Stored Procedures, functions, etc) and the steps I’m following (roughly speaking) for converting are:
Open new query window Copy and paste de object code Save the file This is how the file look like: Run a PowerShell script that does a find and replace based on a hashtable.
In less than two weeks (on 16th June) it’s time for SQL Saturday Athens and I’m proud to announce that I will be speaking!
This will be my first SQL Saturday ever both as speaker and attendee outside Portugal so I’m especially thrilled and excited to be part of it!
I will be presenting my Administrate SSRS/PBIRS with PowerShell session and I can share in first hand that it will include new demos with some fixes and enhancements that will be available on the next version of the module later this week.
This month’s T-SQL Tuesday is brought to us by Riley Major ( b | t ) and he encourage us to talk about how we are helping by giving back to our community.
This is the 102nd edition of TSQL2sDay - an Adam Machanic’s ( b | t ) brainchild.
“Let’s go back for a moment:” I have heard about SQL Server the first time back in 2003 when I was on the high school and I had a database class.
I’m converting some Firebird database code to T-SQL and I’m seeing a lot of code that doesn’t work in the same way that SQL Server. No surprise - I already expected that but for those that still say that “all engines/databases are equal”…“is SQL right?” here is another proof that is not true.
On Firebird it is possible to use the CAST function using a DOMAIN (the equivalent in SQLServer is UDDT - User-Defined Data Types ) as target data-type, well turns out that on SQL Server…that is not possible.
