[dba-SQLServer] Re: Difference between views and queries

Robert,

Before I start another topic, let's be clear. Are you saying that
there is no usage for denormalized design in a transcationsal database
or are you just saying it is unlikely in general? Again, I would take
exception to the "should be normalized" if you are making a blanket
statement for all transactional database, but not if you were to say
in general or with possible exceptions.
