Read Write and Search XML Document in ASP.NET

You often need to read, write or search some phrase in an XML document and you can use XmlDocument or any class among a lot present in .NET framework but what
if you wish to bind your business objects the list of business objects to the XmlDocument.

You can use the code below to do this.

What you need to do for this is to keep the name of properties of your business objects same as the name of attributes are present in the XML file you wanna load.

This class make use of XmlReader and XmlWriter base classes provided by .NET framework.

SELECT @FileContents = @FileContents + ThisLine from #tempXML WHERE PK = @x

END

SELECT @FileContents as FileContents

DROP TABLE #tempXML

Grouping Records in Sql Server 2005

declare @NO_OF_PARTITION int

set @NO_OF_PARTITION = 10

SELECT c.First_Name, c.Last_Name , C.DIVISION_ID

,NTILE(@NO_OF_PARTITION)

OVER(PARTITION BY DIVISION_ID ORDER BY DIVISION_ID ASC) AS 'GROUP_ID'

FROM EMPLOYEE C

WHERE division_id = 2

ORDER BY DIVISION_ID ASC

Replacement to IN and NOT IN from INTERSECT and EXCEPT

SELECT EMPLOYEE_ID FROM EMPLOYEE

INTERSECT

SELECT EMPLOYEE_ID FROM LEAVE_DETAILS

SELECT EMPLOYEE_ID FROM EMPLOYEE
