It would be nice if the Temp Table algorithm would be renamed to Unscalable algorithm. Perhaps then it would provide more of a warning to developers when seeing this in a view definition - similarly when it says using temp table in the explain results. Just a tongue-in-cheek request for the most part but really it can be disastrous to t...
Hi everyone, I have a simple text_field in my form where a user enters a time in minutes, i.e. 60. How can I multiply that number by 60 before saving the form, such that the database stores the number in seconds? Then, how do I reverse that and show the field in minutes on another view? Thank you! ...

I have a view in a SQL Server 2008 db that simply exposes about 20 fields of one table to be consumed via ODBC to a client.

The columns in the view are shown, in SQL Server Management Studio, to be varc...

It seems that NHibernate needs to have an id tag specified as part of the mapping. This presents a problem for views as most of the time (in my experience) a view will not have an Id. I have mapped views before in nhibernate, but they way I did it seemed to be be messy to me. Here is a contrived example of how I am doing it currentl...
