This one was wrong. It's "exec sp_blah" not "call sp_blah". And it probably still won't work, since that's a MS-ism. > Now, now Richard, don't be modest... > > Just how bashful do we think Richard can be as he gives his erudite, > (usually) deadly accurate and insightful replies. > > No offence intended, Richard. Reading so many "guesses" when you obviously > know this stuff like the back of your hand, caught my eye. No offence taken. Part of it is my Irish self-deprecating charm (yeah, right) but believe it or not, I really don't (completely) understand half of the answers I give. I've just seen the same Q&A go by for years, and (sort of) remember the answers from the real experts: Rasmus, Zeev, Andi, etc. You'd be amazed how often I mis-remember and poor Rasmus has to step in and clean up my mess. :-) PS I was giving disclaimers like this long before Zend hired me. Zend's way too cool to yell at me for being an idiot. :-) -- Richard Lynch | If this was worth $$$ to you, buy a CD US Customer Support Director | from one of the artists listed here: Zend Technologies USA | http://www.L-I-E.com/artists.htm http://www.zend.com | (this has nothing to do with Zend, duh!)
