FROM TableA, TableB WHERE语法用于连接而不是FROM TableA内部连接TableB上 假设查询将以某种方式返回，而不放入ORDER BY子句，因为这是在查询工具中测试时显示的方式。

我最不喜欢的是

Using spaces when creating tables, sprocs etc. I'm fine with CamelCase or under_scores and singular or plurals and UPPERCASE or lowercase but having to refer to a table or column [with spaces], especially if [ it is oddly spaced] (yes, I've run into this) really irritates me. Denormalized data. A table doesn't have to be perfectly normalized, but when I run into a table of employees that has information about their current evaluation score or their primary anything, it tells me that I will probably need to make a separate table at some point and then try to keep them synced. I will normalize the data first and then if I see a place where denormalization helps, I'll consider it. Overuse of either views or cursors. Views have a purpose, but when each table is wrapped in a view it's too much. I've had to use cursors a few times, but generally you can use other mechanisms for this. Access. Can a program be an anti-pattern? We have SQL Server at my work, but a number of people use access due to it's availabilty, "ease of use" and "friendliness" to non-technical users. There is too much here to go into, but if you've been in a similar environment, you know.

不必深入浅出:不使用准备好的语句。

像这样将冗余表连接到查询中:

select emp.empno, dept.deptno
from emp
join dept on dept.deptno = emp.deptno;

使用SQL作为美化的ISAM(索引顺序访问方法)包。特别是嵌套游标，而不是将SQL语句组合成一个更大的语句。这也算“滥用优化器”，因为实际上优化器能做的不多。这可以与非准备语句结合使用，以获得最大的效率:

DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3 FROM Table1

FOREACH c1 INTO a.col1, a.col2, a.col3
    DECLARE c2 CURSOR FOR
        SELECT Item1, Item2, Item3
            FROM Table2
            WHERE Table2.Item1 = a.col2
    FOREACH c2 INTO b.item1, b.item2, b.item3
        ...process data from records a and b...
    END FOREACH
END FOREACH

正确的解决方案(几乎总是)是将两个SELECT语句合并为一个:

DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR
    SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, Item1, Item2, Item3
        FROM Table1, Table2
        WHERE Table2.Item1 = Table1.Col2
        -- ORDER BY Table1.Col1, Table2.Item1

FOREACH c1 INTO a.col1, a.col2, a.col3, b.item1, b.item2, b.item3
    ...process data from records a and b...
END FOREACH

双循环版本的唯一优点是，您可以很容易地发现表1中值之间的中断，因为内部循环结束了。这可能是控制中断报告中的一个因素。

此外，应用程序中的排序通常是不允许的。
