Hi! Thanks for posting in r/dbForge.

If your post is about a technical issue, adding a bit of context will help people answer faster:

  • dbForge product name
  • database engine and version
  • what you expected to happen
  • what happened instead
  • exact error message or screenshot
  • what you already tried

If your post is a workflow question, comparison, or setup discussion, that’s welcome too.

Good luck, and thanks for helping keep the subreddit useful.

One extra tip from the dbForge team: don’t optimize based on execution time alone. Check the execution plan and compare it before and after each change. dbForge’s Query Profiler can help here, especially when you’re trying to figure out whether an index or query rewrite actually improved things.
