Hi,

We're running SQL 2005 Ent. When looking in the Activity Monoitor, in the left column I see red arrows pointing down and a few hour glasses. Can someone tell me what these icons indicate?

Also - It used to be easy in SQL 2000 to find the "Blocking" process by looking under Current Activity --> Locks. It would simply show the process blocking all others by labeling it "Blocking". Is there an Easy way to find the blocking process in SQL 2005?

Thank you!

Terry

I found the answer to my first question but could still use some help with the second part concerning Blocking processes.

Regards,
Terry

Thanks,

Never mind. I found everything. It was all right there in front of my eyes. All I needed to do was open them!


Thanks,
Terry
