Body
<p>What is the optimal number of connections that can be open on a SQL Server 2000 DB. I know in the previous company I was working for, on a tru 64 box with Oracle 8i, 8 processor machine we'd figured out that 8*12= 96 connections seemed to be a good number. Is there any such calc for SQL Server 2000. The DB runs on a 2-processor(hyper threaded 4) machine. There are a lot of transactions that run against the DB. The reason I ask is because we have an app that typically tends to leave around 100 connections open even if it is not doing anything and I am having difficulty explaining that that might be a cause for our performance issues. Maybe, SQL Server does not have such a limitation... Can any of you pour forth some wisdom on this? Much appreciate it. Thanks,</p> <p>I should add it is the Standard Edition. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
