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?

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

一个不太为人所知的TSQL技术,以随机顺序返回行:

-- Return rows in a random order
SELECT 
    SomeColumn 
FROM 
    SomeTable
ORDER BY 
    CHECKSUM(NEWID())

Vardecimal存储格式

SQL Server 2005为数字和十进制数据类型添加了一种新的存储格式,称为vardecimal。Vardecimal是十进制类型的一种变长表示,可以在行的每个实例中保存未使用的字节。如果十进制定义很大(如decimal(38,6)),但存储的值很小(如0.0),或者有大量重复值,或者数据填充稀疏,则可以节省最多的时间。

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

登录事件的触发器

Logon triggers can help complement auditing and compliance. For example, logon events can be used for enforcing rules on connections (for example limiting connection through a specific username or limiting connections through a username to a specific time periods) or simply for tracking and recording general connection activity. Just like in any trigger, ROLLBACK cancels the operation that is in execution. In the case of logon event that means canceling the connection establishment. Logon events do not fire when the server is started in the minimal configuration mode or when a connection is established through dedicated admin connection (DAC).

表/存储过程过滤器是一个半隐藏的特性,非常有用…

在“SQL Server Management Studio对象资源管理器”中,右键单击“表或存储过程”文件夹,选择“筛选器”菜单,然后选择“筛选器设置”,并在“名称包含”行中输入部分名称。

同样地,使用Remove Filter再次查看所有表/存储过程。
