In T-SQL under MS SQL Server 2008, what does '@' mean in front of a parameter *value* that's a string literal?

I do not think that this is valid T-SQL. This may be an artifact of replacing variables with values somewhere in a script and not trimming the leading @.

I get a syntax error with that, so I don't think it means anything except that it's not valid syntax. Did you pull that from valid T-SQL that is being called using just T-SQL, or perhaps this is parameterized stuff coming from some other language or program?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
