>>One thing I learned recently: unless you put the schema name in the table name (select * from dbo.mytable), SQL will redo the view plan for every user.
Interesting. From memory (which means when I last had to create RVs last century) either the View Designer or xCase used to put in the dbo. automatically. I'll go and check now! Thank you... and this is such a useful tip, I wonder where it can be put for wider audience?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
