下面的解决方案不是一个单独的语句来修改多个列，但是，是的，它使生活变得简单:

生成一个表的CREATE脚本。 第一行用ALTER TABLE [TableName] ALTER COLUMN替换CREATE TABLE 从列表中删除不需要的列。 根据需要更改列数据类型。 执行Find and Replace…，如下所示: 发现:空, 替换为:NULL;修改表的列 点击替换按钮。 运行脚本。

希望能节省很多时间:)

这是不可能的。你需要一个一个地做。 你可以:

创建一个临时表，其中包含已修改的列 复制数据 删除原来的表(请仔细检查!) 将临时表重命名为原来的名称

如果您在management studio中进行更改并生成脚本，它会生成一个新表，并将旧数据插入到具有更改的数据类型的表中。下面是一个更改两个列的数据类型的小示例

在一条ALTER TABLE语句中执行多个ALTER COLUMN操作是不可能的。

在这里查看ALTER TABLE语法

您可以执行多个ADD或多个DROP COLUMN，但只能执行一个ALTER 列。

select 'ALTER TABLE ' + OBJECT_NAME(o.object_id) + 
    ' ALTER COLUMN ' + c.name + ' DATETIME2 ' + 
    CASE WHEN c.is_nullable = 0 THEN 'NOT NULL' ELSE 'NULL' END
from sys.objects o
inner join sys.columns c on o.object_id = c.object_id
inner join sys.types t on c.system_type_id = t.system_type_id
where o.type='U'
and c.name = 'Timestamp'
and t.name = 'datetime'
order by OBJECT_NAME(o.object_id)

如果你不想自己写整个东西，把所有的列都改成相同的数据类型，这可以让它更容易:

select 'alter table tblcommodityOHLC alter column '+name+ 'NUMERIC(18,0);'
from syscolumns where id = object_id('tblcommodityOHLC ')

您可以复制和粘贴输出作为您的查询
