a)在字符串中硬编码查询值 b)将数据库查询代码放在Windows窗体应用程序的“OnButtonPress”操作中

两者我都见过。

I think the biggest mistakes that all developers and DBAs do is believing too much on conventions. What I mean by that is that convention are only guide lines that for most cases will work but not necessarily always. I great example is normalization and foreign keys, I know most people wont like this, but normalization can cause complexity and cause loss of performance as well, so if there is no reason to move a phone number to a phones table, don't do it. On the foreign keys, they are great for most cases, but if you are trying to create something that can work by it self when needed the foreign key will be a problem in the future, and also you loose performance. Anyways, as I sad rules and conventions are there to guide, and they should always be though of but not necessarily implemented, analysis of each case is what should always be done.

不使用索引。

使用一些疯狂的构造和应用逻辑，而不是简单的COALESCE。

我不得不说，应用程序开发人员犯的最大错误是没有正确地规范化数据库。

作为一名应用程序开发人员，我意识到正确的数据库结构、规范化和维护的重要性;我花了无数的时间自学数据库结构和管理。根据我的经验，每当我开始与不同的开发人员合作时，我通常必须重组整个数据库并更新应用程序以适应，因为它通常是畸形的和有缺陷的。

For example, I started working with a new project where the developer asked me to implement Facebook Connect on the site. I cracked open the database to see what I had to work with and saw that every little bit of information about any given user was crammed into one table. It took me six hours to write a script that would organize the table into four or five separate tables and another two to get the app to use those tables. Please, normalize your databases! It will make everything else less of a headache.

我讨厌开发人员使用嵌套的选择语句，甚至在查询的“select”部分中返回选择语句的结果的函数。

我很惊讶我在其他地方没有看到这个，也许我忽略了它，尽管@adam也有类似的问题。

例子:

SELECT
    (SELECT TOP 1 SomeValue FROM SomeTable WHERE SomeDate = c.Date ORDER BY SomeValue desc) As FirstVal
    ,(SELECT OtherValue FROM SomeOtherTable WHERE SomeOtherCriteria = c.Criteria) As SecondVal
FROM
    MyTable c

在这个场景中，如果MyTable返回10000行，结果就好像查询只运行了20001个查询，因为它必须运行初始查询，并对每一行结果查询一次其他表。

开发人员可以在只返回几行数据且子表通常只有少量数据的开发环境中使用这种查询，但在生产环境中，随着向表中添加更多数据，这种查询的成本可能会呈指数级增长。

一个更好的(不一定完美的)例子是这样的:

SELECT
     s.SomeValue As FirstVal
    ,o.OtherValue As SecondVal
FROM
    MyTable c
    LEFT JOIN (
        SELECT SomeDate, MAX(SomeValue) as SomeValue
        FROM SomeTable 
        GROUP BY SomeDate
     ) s ON c.Date = s.SomeDate
    LEFT JOIN SomeOtherTable o ON c.Criteria = o.SomeOtherCriteria

这允许数据库优化器将数据混合在一起，而不是从主表中重新查询每条记录，我通常发现，当我必须修复产生这个问题的代码时，我通常会将查询速度提高100%或更多，同时减少CPU和内存使用。
