重新使用一个“死”字段来做一些它不打算做的事情(例如在“传真”字段中存储用户数据)-尽管作为一个快速修复非常诱人!

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.

我最担心的是450列的访问表，这些表是由总经理最好的朋友狗美容师的8岁儿子整理的，还有那个不可靠的查找表，它之所以存在，是因为有人不知道如何正确地规范化数据结构。

通常，这个查找表是这样的:

ID INT,
Name NVARCHAR(132),
IntValue1 INT,
IntValue2 INT,
CharValue1 NVARCHAR(255),
CharValue2 NVARCHAR(255),
Date1 DATETIME,
Date2 DATETIME

我已经记不清有多少客户的系统依赖于这种可恶的东西了。

以下是我的前3名。

1号。指定字段列表失败。(编辑:为了防止混淆:这是一个生产代码规则。它不适用于一次性分析脚本——除非我是作者。)

SELECT *
Insert Into blah SELECT *

应该是

SELECT fieldlist
Insert Into blah (fieldlist) SELECT fieldlist

2号。使用游标和while循环，当while循环和循环变量就可以了。

DECLARE @LoopVar int

SET @LoopVar = (SELECT MIN(TheKey) FROM TheTable)
WHILE @LoopVar is not null
BEGIN
  -- Do Stuff with current value of @LoopVar
  ...
  --Ok, done, now get the next value
  SET @LoopVar = (SELECT MIN(TheKey) FROM TheTable
    WHERE @LoopVar < TheKey)
END

3号。DateLogic通过字符串类型。

--Trim the time
Convert(Convert(theDate, varchar(10), 121), datetime)

应该是

--Trim the time
DateAdd(dd, DateDiff(dd, 0, theDate), 0)

我最近看到了一个高峰“一个问题总比两个好，对吧?”

SELECT *
FROM blah
WHERE (blah.Name = @name OR @name is null)
  AND (blah.Purpose = @Purpose OR @Purpose is null)

这个查询需要两个或三个不同的执行计划，具体取决于参数的值。对于这个SQL文本，只生成一个执行计划并保存在缓存中。无论参数的值是多少，都将使用该计划。这会导致间歇性的性能不佳。最好编写两个查询(每个预期的执行计划一个查询)。

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。

临时表滥用。

特别是这类事情:

SELECT personid, firstname, lastname, age
INTO #tmpPeople
FROM People
WHERE lastname like 's%'

DELETE FROM #tmpPeople
WHERE firstname = 'John'

DELETE FROM #tmpPeople
WHERE firstname = 'Jon'

DELETE FROM #tmpPeople
WHERE age > 35

UPDATE People
SET firstname = 'Fred'
WHERE personid IN (SELECT personid from #tmpPeople)

不要从查询中构建临时表，只是为了删除不需要的行。

是的，我在生产db中看到过这种形式的代码页。
