You beat me to it. And what serious company still wants to put their critical business data in DBFs?
I have been using SQL Server as an application developer for years now but in my new gig we are using it far more extensively than I have before. EVERYTHING is done in stored procedures (or triggers or constraints) I will probably be ramping up for a bit with scripts -- shhh, don't tell the client ;-) -- but at the end of this project I will be much stronger in SQL Server than I am now.
Here is today's local color. On the way back to the hotel after work I decided to check out some local radio stations. The rental car has Sirius and I had been listening to that. So I switch to FM and discover all six presets are on country stations, LOL. Gotta love it.
Much nicer was being taken out to lunch by the account manager from the placement agency. We went to a first rate Cajun place. I love Cajun food and it is not very common around Chicago. I may be practically living on the stuff while I am down here.
Back home for the weekend tomorrow night. It's been a terrific first week.
