SQL Server有哪些隐藏特性?

例如,没有文档的系统存储过程,做一些非常有用但没有足够文档的事情的技巧?

感谢大家的精彩回答!

存储过程

sp_msforeachtable: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each table name (v6.5 and up) sp_msforeachdb: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each database name (v7 and up) sp_who2: just like sp_who, but with a lot more info for troubleshooting blocks (v7 and up) sp_helptext: If you want the code of a stored procedure, view & UDF sp_tables: return a list of all tables and views of database in scope. sp_stored_procedures: return a list of all stored procedures xp_sscanf: Reads data from the string into the argument locations specified by each format argument. xp_fixeddrives:: Find the fixed drive with largest free space sp_help: If you want to know the table structure, indexes and constraints of a table. Also views and UDFs. Shortcut is Alt+F1

本周我学到的最令人惊讶的事情是在ORDER By子句中使用CASE语句。例如:

declare @orderby varchar(10)

set @orderby = 'NAME'

select * 
    from Users
    ORDER BY 
        CASE @orderby
            WHEN 'NAME' THEN LastName
            WHEN 'EMAIL' THEN EmailAddress
        END

其他回答

在SQL Server 2005/2008中显示SELECT查询结果中的行号:

SELECT ( ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY OrderId) ) AS RowNumber,
        GrandTotal, CustomerId, PurchaseDate
FROM Orders

ORDER BY是一个强制性条款。OVER()子句告诉SQL引擎对指定列(在本例中为OrderId)上的数据进行排序,并根据排序结果分配数字。

Persisted-computed-columns

计算列可以帮助您将运行时计算成本转移到数据修改阶段。计算列与行其余部分一起存储,当计算列上的表达式与查询匹配时,将透明地使用它。您还可以在PCC上构建索引,以加快表达式的过滤和范围扫描。

以下是一些我认为有用但很多人似乎不知道的功能:

sp_tables

返回可以为的对象列表 在当前环境下查询。 这意味着任何对象都可以出现 在FROM子句中,同义词除外 对象。

sp_stored_procedures

中存储过程的列表 当前环境。

通过关键字查找过程

哪些过程包含特定的文本(表名、列名、变量名、TODO等)?

SELECT OBJECT_NAME(ID) FROM SysComments 
WHERE Text LIKE '%SearchString%' 
AND OBJECTPROPERTY(id, 'IsProcedure') = 1

可伸缩的共享数据库

通过可伸缩共享数据库,可以在普通机器上挂载相同的物理驱动器,并允许多个SQL Server 2005实例使用同一组数据文件。这种设置不需要为每个SQL Server实例复制存储,并且允许多个SQL Server实例具有额外的处理能力,这些实例具有自己的本地资源,如cpu、内存、tempdb和其他潜在的本地数据库。
