I have a table with 2 columns. UTCTime and Values. The UTCTime is in 15 mins increment. I want a query that would compare the value to the previous value in one hour span and display a value between 0 and 4 depends on if the values are constant. In other words there is an entry for every 15 minute increment and the value can be constant so I just need to check each value to the previous one per hour. For example +---------|-------+ | UTCTime | Value | ------------------| | 12:00 | 18.2 | | 12:15 | 87.3 | | 12:30 | 55.91 | | 12:45 | 55.91 | | 1:00 | 37.3 | | 1:15 | 47.3 | | 1:30 | 47.3 | | 1:45

Is there some way to have a shortcut in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) that when text is selected, it wraps that text in an IsNull() statement? For example, I highlight the text below: My_column_name and when I click the keyboard shortcut, what was highlighted turns into: IsNull(My_column_name, 0) I am using SSMS v17.4 You can get this done using snippets. It's not exactly a simple shortcut, but a few keystrokes will get you there. First you need to create a snippet like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <CodeSnippets xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/2005

I am using SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2 to manage a SQL Azure database. When I try to right-click on any of the objects in the database, and do Script Table As -> CREATE -> New Query Editor Window, I get the following exception screen every time: Scripting for SELECT -> New Query Editor Window is the only option that seems to work without generating an Exception like above.
