Had something like that happen to a local dev database (thankfully). A dev next me blurts out "how to I rollback an update in SQL server"? He was used to Oracle and how easy it is to rollback something. Had to explain that commit just happens in SQL server regardless of whether or not you put that commit line in.
I'm dying lol
wasnt halloween last week. stop scarin me
For MS-SQL. If it is production, it has a full transaction log, right? I mean I know for development use I turn that off, but for live data you want that on. You should be able to roll back to any point since the last time it was truncated. Or right before hitting return to whatever level of accuracy you're comfortable with.
