View Dependences in SQL

In Recent one of my project I need to change the column data type. At the same time I need to change the all object the table of column dependences. We find best solution best for SQL SERVER 2008 onwards this is known as View Dependences.

Step -1:

Create sample table.

CREATE TABLE STUDENT
(
ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
STUDENTNAME VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL ,
LIVINGLOCATION VARCHAR(100) NULL
)

Step-2:

Create some sample procedures (or) views (or) functions (or) triggers.

CREATE PROCEDURE Get_Student
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM STUDENT
END
-----------------------------

CREATE PROCEDURE Get_StudentBy_ID
(@ID INT=NULL )
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM STUDENT WHERE ID=@ID
END
-----------------------------
CREATE VIEW V_GetStudent
AS
SELECT * FROM STUDENT

Step-3:
Right click on the table in Object Explorer.



























Click on View Dependencies. Object Dependencies window will be opened.






















In above Object Dependencies window we have seen 2 options.

1.     Objects that depend on Student table – means Objects that depends up on student table that may be Procedures, Functions, Views, Trigger...Etc.

2.     Objects on which Student depends.

Output: It return’s “Sql” because Coalesce function return’s first non null value. Example 2: Coalesce in select statement. IF OBJECT_ID ( 'Employee' , 'U' ) IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE Employee CREATE TABLE Employee (   ID INT IDENTITY ( 1 , 1 ) PRIMARY KEY ,   NAME VARCHAR ( 20 ),   SALARY INT ) INSERT INTO Employee   ( NAME , SALARY ) VALUES ( 'Rakesh' , 5000 ),(NULL, 6000 ),( 'Naresh...

Variables in T-SQL

Variables can be used to store the data in temporally based on data type. Variable name begin with @ symbol. There are two types of variables in T-SQL. 1.   Local Variables (It must begin @ symbol). 2.   Global Variables (it must begin @@ symbol) this variables also known as system variables. Syntax Declare a Variable DECLARE   @Variable-Name   DATATYPE EXAMPLE: DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) In before 2008 versions of SQL SERVER we declare a variable and assign a value in 2 lines.                 DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) SET   @Name = 'LeadFirstSQL' In 2008 and Later versions of SQL SERVER we declare a variable and assign a value in single line. DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 )   = 'LeadFirstSQL' Variables must be declare and used with the same batch. DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) ...
