• How many times can I reinstall SQL Server 2008 using the same product key?

  - by twpc

  I have attempted to install SQL Server 2008 twice so far, but have gotten errors. Would like to try again. Is there a limited number of times that the same product key can be used before I have problems?

• Why the huge discrepancy in size between two similar zip files

  - by twpc

  I use WinZip to zip entire directories of code and send them to a fellow programmer. He makes changes and sends the directories of code back to me. Ignoring the fact that this is not a good way to keep the code clean when we are both working on it, I notice that his zip files are far smaller than mine, with basically the same data inside (mine range around 36,000 KB, his 2,000 KB). I believe he is also using WinZip. What's going on here, and how can I make mine "more compressed"?

• SQL Server Field with 8000 characters -- text or nvarchar?

  - by twpc

  I am adding a field to a SQL Server 2008 database. The field needs to accomodate up to 8000 characters (occasionally Unicode chars as well). Seems from my research that text data type is being deprecated. Go with nvarchar or stick with text anyway for such a large field?

• How can I test email generating without creating and checking 1,000 addresses?

  - by twpc

  I am working on generating emails using Java. I would love to use some sort of system where I can send out mass emails and ensure that the emails were received by the intended recipient (A. My code to send the emails worked and B.The emails were not marked as spam). How can I do this without setting up (and keeping track of) a couple hundred email addresses and then checking each one individually? Thanks!

• Program not running from expected directory?

  - by twpc

  I am working on a web-based program, using Java. I am not sure exactly how to phrase this, but I expect the program to be running from within the c:/Resin/webapps/apps directory. However, when I reference a file in the program like this: "../files/randomfile.pdf", it cannot find that file. It works when I reference it like this: "c:/Resin/webapps/files/randomfile.pdf". How to I change the "running location"? (And what is the technical term for this?)

• Is a JOIN more/less efficient than EXISTS IN when no data is needed from the second table?

  - by twpc

  I need to look up all households with orders. I don't care about the data of the order at all, just that it exists. Is it more efficient to say something like this: SELECT HouseholdID, LastName, FirstName, Phone FROM Households INNER JOIN Orders ON Orders.HouseholdID = Households.HouseholdID or this: SELECT HouseholdID, LastName, FirstName, Phone FROM Households WHERE EXISTS (SELECT HouseholdID FROM Orders WHERE Orders.HouseholdID = Households.HouseholdID)
