difference between UPDLOCK and FOR UPDATE Maybe you missed the ... in the code. also there is code before and after the moment this code is called. The flow of the program (which I won't discuss) makes it mandatory that certain records need to be locked with 100% certainty that the row cannot be updated by another statement. |

difference between UPDLOCK and FOR UPDATE the above code is exactly what we use. the dots are just other code and lookups. Your answer looks like you didn't read the code provided since i did include a column list and a transaction and am not using a cursor. Or am I missing your point here? |

difference between UPDLOCK and FOR UPDATE Thanks. You say: 'in general'. I need to know if there is ANY specific difference between the 2 statements. We are using MSSQL only |

Backup database and clean old backup question It is one of the requirements that I don't have to do extra work after the script/job has been implemented on the server. The way you describe forces me to add an extra step when somebody adds a database. Something we absolutely want to avoid. |

Backup database and clean old backup question Thanks for the pointers. It is not an option to have NO backup. I already know about the sp_msforeachdb. But can I use it for cleaning old backup files? I hardly doubt it. |
