How Do I: Using the HierarchyID Data Type in SQL Server 2008 to manage data hierarchies?
| Managing hierarchies in Information Systems has long been a challenge to most information systems professionals. The issues are simple, but the implementation of hierarchies within databases is complex and often onerous. The HierarchyID datatype introduced in SQL Server 2008 provides a new way to deal with these types of issues.

- Populate the table with data using CTE
- Query the table using some of the inherent functions available for the HierarchyID Datatype
