  • Pipe "|" delimited files with Excel & SQL Server

    I am constantly querying random data out of SQL Server and sending it to EXCEL files to email to a co-worker.

  • 'net' command (net user, net localgroup, etc)

    it's depressing to me how many people that i run into today that have an excrutiatingly limited knowledge about the command line in windows, and yet they are considered experts on the platform. that aside, i figured i would share a couple of very simple uses. something people ask a lot is what domain...
