The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

I mean add or modify a stored procedure, then have to restore from an earlier backup. (Consider a client who doesn't have a well-run shop.)


If I stored my SQL in a database, it wouldn't be in the database they act upon; just as I have a database that contains nothing but user-defined functions which I can use on any of my databases. Plus it would allow for multiple versions of a statement. At any rate, I meant resources within the application.
