Well today I passed 70-432 and 70-445. It was a busy testing day for me at PASS. Since I already have the MCITP tests that go with these MCTS exams that means that today I earned: MCTS: SQL Server 2008, Implementation and Maintenance MCTS: SQL Server 2005 Business Intelligence MCITP: Database...

My wife Kris was wondering if anyone on my forums live in Florida and happens to have an Annual Pass to Disneyworld, (or happens to be going to Disneyworld soon)? She has gotten into trading Disney pins and hopes that I know someone that would be willing to pick up a few pins for her at...

I just changed out my blackberry for a new one, and Verizon told me that the price of the unlimited data plan for the blackberry has been reduced in price. This happened in December, and old accounts were not converted to the new price. If you've got a Verizon phone give them a call and tell...

I normally don't overtly talk about my blog, but I've got a question posted up there which I'm trying to increase the feedback on. What I'm asking is: "If you were going to the PASS Summit 2008 what sessions would you like to see there?" I've got a couple of ideas as to what to submit to talk...

Am I crazy or did RIM remove the ability to minimze the Desktop Manager to the system tray from the 4.3 release? I admit, it's got a much nicer main screen than prior versions of the desktop manager, but I hate having things sitting minimized on the task bar if I don't need to see them. Having...

I took the betas for 70-446 and 70-445. I managed to fail the MCTS 70-445 but pass the MCITP 70-446. I guess this means that I'll have to actually go and take to 70-445 so that I can pick up both certs because I can't get the MCITP without first getting the MCTS. What a pain. Denny MCSA...

Folks, We are backing up a fairly large SSAS database. We have begin getting the error "One of the data files is too large to be stored inside a .cab file. File name D:\...Fact_Table.fact.data". This happens when using the msmdarch and via the SSAS GUI. Does any one have any ideas on how to...
