From the question I would guess that the OP doesn't own the database server.

Hello. I am developing a small project in C#, in which I show chosen passages from a book.
Now I am not sure how do I store these passages in database? Currently I am considering these two options
1 - Storing passages as pictures in folders BUT their paths in the database. My application will get these paths and load the content in the window.
2 - Storing the actual text content in the database and load it in the window.

Can you please help me decide which way is better? Or is there any better way to do it? Thanks

This world is going to explode due to international politics, SOON.

Probably 2 but it could be 1.

Some examples for 1.
- text from illuminated book
- ancient text whose translation is in doubt
- legal documents where originals matter

Storing an image will give you the least amount of useful data, storing the text allows it to be searchable.

There is no "better" way; each has it's own advantages and disadvantages, and you'd need to check your requirements which suits better.

On a folder;

You can have clashes in naming. Filenames must be unique.
You have the advantage of the virusscanner picking things up. Most scanners don't do databases.
You track an external asset

In a database;

Easy with backups/restores; are you gonna backup that folder?
Centralized; no need to document outside-repositories
As easy to (hyper)link to as a document on a webserver. However, not being a file, the server cannot response to a header-request on it's freshness.

the result is :[Note: I have change Create ----> Alert

Now the BUG/ERROR :
The content is same but the names are diffrent :

but the sp is :

why the names are different ?

You probably renamed the proc and the sp_help has not refreshed the name.

If one of my devs named a proc like that he would get a first warning, there would be no second.

From   (Select x.ProductName, SUM(x.field1 + y.field2) as MySum, y.field2
        From tablexxx as x inner join
             tableyyy as y on x.id = y.id) as q

Hi everyone! I need to grant permission on a table in a database to a database role in another database.

I have client database containing information about clients. In another database, I have roles for different departments. Now I need to grant permission on specific tables in the client database to roles or departments which are located in another database.

I have been struggling for a solution but have not succeeded. Is there any way to accomplish this task? Please help.

Do some research into "replication" this may meet your needs or you can script the data transfer. There is no simple way to "merge" 2 databases. You may also look into Data Compare from Red Gate but I don't think that is going to be the tool.
