Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ooh. Can I? That would be cool!

Yeah, it's under the "Search" menu. I've used it quite a bit.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Sure you can do a recursive search in dos.

Dir filename.ext /s

Filename.ext can be replaced with wild cards of ? and * etc. and in Windows dos command prompts, it can even go without the .ext

Anyone have experience with locking/blocking in SQL Server?

We're getting this error a lot:

The VB Application identified by the event source logged this Application WebTimesheet: Thread ID: 7980 ,Logged: WebTimesheet::Utility::SaveNew(10) - Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server - Transaction (Process ID 65) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm trying to connect from OS X (Leopard) to a Windows share. There's a username and no password, but when I try and enter those credentials, it just tries to connect (or stay connected) as guest. How can I disconnect as guest?
