  keep in mind ignoring errors like above might even end up in losing useful information. so analyse first and see whats root cause for the errors and how you can handle them If not, at least log errors along with affected data somewhere for later analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/  |
