Got a Question? Ask Microsoft!

SQL Server Magazine is joining with members of Microsoft's SQL Server development team to bring you a new column that answers your most pressing questions. We've set up a new email address, [email protected], and the following members of the development team are waiting for your SQL Server queries: Patrick Conlan (Project Server team), Donald Farmer (Data Transformation Services--DTS), Euan Garden (tools), Amrish Kumar (SQL engine), Ariel Netz (Analysis Server), Vaqar Pirzada (replication), Michael Raheem (tools), and Richard Waymire (business intelligence--BI--services). So don't delay, send in your technical questions on everything from T-SQL, DTS, server internals, replication, MDX programming, and management tools to ADO.NET, Common Language Runtime (CLR) programming with SQL Server, and architecting applications for performance and security. And as the development team helps answer your questions, it will also be helping another community by donating payment for the column to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
