The data displayed in each the same - just from different levels - year goal, last 4 weeks summary, fiscal YTD summary by month. The report looks fine in the preview.

• SQL Server Referencing SQLDMO in UNSAFE assembly

• SQL Server Impact of "Rows per batch" on OLE DB Destination?

  OLE DB Destination has a "Rows per batch" parameter. Are there best practices/guidelines around what it should be set to (for better performance etc) For example, if each row is of size 100 bytes, how does performance change when I set a batchsize of 0, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc I guess the default value for this parameter is zero. Does that mean, internally it is implemented as: For each row: begin transaction insert row commit tran ...Show All

As it stands now, developers can check-in an ...Show All
