Congrats one and all! Job well done!

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.
"Change is inevitable... change for the better is not".

Thanks to every one! Special thanks to Steve and Jeff for being great educators. I learned a lot from Jeff especially on 'how-to-make-a-good-post' kind of stuff and realized many of the mistakes I made during my early days on the forums.

Thanks again

Jacob

No doubt at all, this was very well deserved, Jacob. Your series on XML is by far the clearest and easiest to understand. It puts Books-on-line to shame. You must have put a great deal of work into it.

Best wishes,
Phil Factor

I have learned a good bit and continue to learn from Jacob in the MSDN SQL XML forum. Also, I have read and benefited from a few of his XML articles here at SQL Server Central. Jacob has been and continues to be a top contributor in the MSDN SQL forumns and now is also contributing to the MS Wiki. Finally, Jacob is the first person that I nominated for the MVP award -- very deserving. 🙂

Congratulations to both Jacob and Kathy.

Jacob:

It has been a pleasure.
