LDF acronym stands for Log Data File (though could have been called – Transactional Log Data File). This is a must to have file, and is created at the same time the database file (.mdf) is created by SQL Server. So why do you need it? For keeping .mdf consistent.

Using transactions, a sequence of actions can be grouped together, with the guarantee that either all actions will succeed or none will. SQL Server implements transactions using a write-ahead log.

Stored Procedures, Functions, Triggers can be coded in CLR. CLR is faster than T-SQL in many cases. CLR is mainly used to accomplish task which are not possible by T-SQL or can use lots of resources. CLR can be usually implemented where there is intense string operation, thread management or iteration methods which can be complicated for T-SQL. Implementing CLR provides more security to Extended Stored Procedure.

In my example I have selected Add New Reference. 3) If you have selected existing reference skip to next step or a...
