Oracle数据库10g用户:

alter table mytable modify(mycolumn null);

当您尝试其他方法时，您将得到“ORA-01735: invalid ALTER TABLE选项”

ALTER TABLE mytable ALTER COLUMN mycolumn DROP NOT NULL;

适用于SQL Server或TSQL

ALTER TABLE Complaint.HelplineReturn ALTER COLUMN IsDisposed BIT NULL 

正如其他人所观察到的，该命令的精确语法在不同类型的DBMS中有所不同。你使用的语法在Oracle中工作:

SQL> desc MACAddresses
 Name                                      Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
 COMPUTER                                           NUMBER
 MACADDRESS                                         VARCHAR2(12)
 CORRECTED_MACADDRESS                      NOT NULL VARCHAR2(17)

SQL> alter table MACAddresses
  2       modify corrected_MACAddress null
  3  /

Table altered.

SQL> desc MACAddresses
 Name                                      Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
 COMPUTER                                           NUMBER
 MACADDRESS                                         VARCHAR2(12)
 CORRECTED_MACADDRESS                               VARCHAR2(17)

SQL>

在PostgresQL中是:

ALTER TABLE tableName ALTER COLUMN columnName DROP NOT NULL;

甲骨文

修改表([column] NOT NULL)

SQLite

ALTER TABLE命令有点特殊。不可能修改列。你必须创建一个新列，迁移数据，然后删除该列:

-- 1. First rename
ALTER TABLE
    Merchant_Pending_Functions
RENAME COLUMN
    NumberOfLocations
TO
   NumberOfLocations_old

-- 2. Create new column
ALTER TABLE
    Merchant_Pending_Functions
ADD COLUMN
    NumberOfLocations INT NULL

-- 3. Migrate data - you need to write code for that
-- 4. Drop the old column
ALTER TABLE
    Merchant_Pending_Functions
DROP COLUMN
    NumberOfLocations_old
