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.

SET ROWCOUNT

Stop the processing after the number of rows has been affected. Example: Step-1: Create the Table and insert some sample data. CREATE TABLE STUDENT ( ID INT IDENTITY ( 1 , 1 ) PRIMARY KEY , STUDENTNAME VARCHAR ( 100 ) NOT NULL , LIVINGLOCATION VARCHAR ( 100 ) NULL ) INSERT INTO STUDENT ( STUDENTNAME , LIVINGLOCATION ) SELECT 'Rakesh' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Raju' , 'Delhi' UNION ALL SELECT 'Madhu' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Naresh' ,NULL UNION ALL SELECT 'Venaktesh' , 'Chennai' In above Insert Statement we inserted 5 sample records. Step-2: Using SET ROWCOUT SET ROWCOUNT 3 ; SELECT * FROM STUDENT ORDER BY ID DESC It will affected 3 rows after that processing has been stopped. Step-2: Using SET ROWCOUT 0 SET ROWCOUNT 0 ; SELECT * FROM STUDENT ORDER BY ID DESC ...

Simple Trick Using ISNULL

Simple Trick Using ISNULL: Step-1: Create Sample Student Table. CREATE TABLE Student ( Id INT IDENTITY ( 1 , 1 ) PRIMARY KEY , StudentName VARCHAR ( 100 ) NOT NULL, LivingLocation VARCHAR ( 100 ) NULL ) Step-2 :Insert Some Sample Data INSERT INTO Student SELECT 'Rakesh' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Raju' , 'Delhi' UNION ALL SELECT 'Madhu' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Naresh' ,NULL UNION ALL SELECT 'Venaktesh' , 'Chennai' Step-3 : Select Data from Student Table SELECT * FROM Student If we observe above data of student table we have student id 4 record LivingLocation is NULL. Step -4 :Select Data from Student Table With Where Clause. SELECT * FROM Student WHERE LivingLocation = 'Hyderabad' In the above query we are included the where clause w...

Coalesce function

Coalesce function returns the first non-null value among the arguments. Syntax: Coalesce (expression [,..n]) Here is example using Coalesce function Example 1 DECLARE @Str1 varchar ( 10 ), @str2 varchar ( 20 ), @Str3 varchar ( 20 ) SET @Str2 = 'Sql' , @Str3 = 'Server' SELECT COALESCE ( @Str1 , @str2 , @Str3 ) As [Coalesce] In above example @Str2 value is ‘Sql’ , @str3 value is ‘Server’  and @str1 values is Null because it not assigned any value . 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...
