4 level Object Name in SQL Server


There are four levels in the naming convention for any SQL Server object
[ServerName.[DatabaseName.[SchemaName.]]]ObjectName

Schema Name (or Ownership)
--the object created is assigned to a schema rather than an owner. Whereas an owner related to one particular login, a schema can now be shared across multiple logins, and one login can have rights to multiple schemas
--For object not belonging to default schema state, use the schema name of your object.

The Default Schema: dbo:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
--for user of a database MySchema(login name) a table my.table created will have a ownerqualified object name would be MySchema.MyTable. So to access this table we need to use the name MySchema.MyTable (as this is created by a user)
--for database owner fred, a table created as myTable , ownerqualified object name would be dbo.MyTable.
****as dbo also happens to be the default owner, any user could just refer to the table as MyTable.
--sa (sysadmin role)will always have full access as if it were the dbo, and any objects created by the sa login will show ownership belonging to the dbo.
  for users the schema will nt default to dbo as the default schema—they will be assigned to whatever that particular user has set as the default schema

Database:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
--if you were logged in with AdventureWorks as your current database, and you wanted to refer to the Orders table in the Northwind database, then you could refer to it by Northwind.dbo.Orders or Northwind..Orders as dbo is default schema.
--If a schema named MySchema owns a table named MyTable in MyDatabase, then you could refer to that table as MyDatabase.MySchema.MyTable.

JavaScript Interview Questions

This is a compilations of all the interview questions related to Javascript that i have encountered.  Q: Difference between window.onload and onDocumentReady? A: The onload event does not fire until every last piece of the page is loaded, this includes css and images, which means there’s a huge delay before any code is executed. That isnt what we want. We just want to wait until the DOM is loaded and is able to be manipulated. onDocumentReady allows the programmer to do that. Q:  What is the difference between == and === ? A: The == checks for value equality, but === checks for both type and value. Few examples: "1" == 1; // value evaluation only, yields true "1" === 1; // value and type evaluation, yields false "1" == true; // "1" as boolean is true, value evaluation only, yields true "1" === false; // value and type evaluation, yields false Q: What does “1″+2+5 evaluate to? What about 5 + 2 +...

Do's and Don't SQL

Do's: Writing comments whenever something is not very obvious, as it won’t impact the performance.  (--) for single line  (/*…*/) to mark a section Use proper indentation Use Upper Case for all SQL keywords. SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, WHERE, INNER JOIN, AND, OR, LIKE. Use BEGIN... END block for multiple statements in conditional code  Use Declare and Set in beginning of Stored procedure Create objects in same database where its relevant table exists otherwise it will reduce network performance. Use PRIMARY key in WHERE condition of UPDATE or DELETE statements as this will avoid error possibilities. If User table references Employee table than the column name used in reference should be UserID where User is table name and ID primary column of User table and UserID is reference column of Employee table. Use select column name instead of select * Use CTE (Common Table Expression); its scope is limited to the next statement in SQL query, instead of...
