God, using SQL, or Basic, or C, or Java? I don't think so. Writing ASCII programs is where it's at... 
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows handy, you can even try this yourself. Copy the line above into notepad and save it as helloworld.com (should end up as 68 or 70 bytes if you've done it right), then scan it with your Antivirus software (which you do have, right - I take no responsibility for broken systems), and finally, run it. 
PS - for the tech savvy, you may notice this has more than a passing similarity to the Eicar Antivirus test file (from which it was derived), but hopefully neutered enough that no Antivirus software will barf at it.

Code:
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$ Hello World. Having a nice day? $H+H*
