933097 Cumulative hotfix package (build 3152) for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 is available

I've read about this hotfix at http://www.kbalertz.com/Feedback_933097.aspx but I can't find anything on microsoft.com about it. It sounds like a worthwhile hotfix, but I'm wondering about the absence of an announcement on microsoft.com.

Anyone else know about this hotfix?

Thanks!

The knowledge based article is at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933097, Cumulative hotfix rollups aren't generally announced as much as other release since they are really only needed by customer experiencing problems that the hotfix addresses.

Thanks,

How can I obtain the hotfix without cost? All support options for obtaining indicate I will be charged.

Thanks in advance.

.net version of Detect Anomalies in Excel

Is there an equivalent or similar .net sample for detecting data Anomalies?

Detect Anomalies in Excel

http://zones.advisor.com/doc/14413

Please check out the Data Mining Addins for Office 2007. There's a task "Detect Outliers" which might work for you. More details about the addins are available at http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com

Thanks

|||I can say that I've never even tried it ... but I would need to obtain the Add-in source code and alter it for my purposes. Office/Excel will not suffice. I need to expose this functionality via a web interface and so it must also be a highly scalable solution. C# preferable.|||

This tip http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/TipsNTricks/861.aspx gives the basic idea. You can also check out the live sample at http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/LiveSamples/46.aspx that shows anomaly detection in a web application - source code is provided. The Excel Addin adds the automatic creation of a mining model with some nice heuristics for column selection, and the visualization part. Those are mostly dependent on your application and the Excel code wouldn't really help I believe.

The two sources above should give you everything you need. I once presented the implementation of the above web application at TechEd, so it should be in the TechEd archives (although I forget which year it was)
