Deleting A Column DEFAULT....
Jul 24, 2006
Hi,
I've the following problem. I must delete a column DEFAULT from a table,
but I must do it with a script, independently from the server where it'll
be executed.
Locally I've tried with:
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PlanningDettaglio]
DROP CONSTRAINT [DF__PlanningD__OreSt__688C6DAC]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PlanningDettaglio]
ALTER COLUMN [OreStraordinario] varchar(5)
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PlanningDettaglio]
ADD DEFAULT ('00.00') FOR [OreStraordinario]
GO
it works, but only locally.
I've tried with:
ALTER TABLE PlanningDettaglio ALTER COLUMN OreStraordinario DROP DEFAULT
Err.: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DEFAULT'.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks in advance,
Giacomo
P.S.
We're using SQL Sever 2000 (version 8.00.194)

Hi all,
(I am using SQL Server 2005)
I have created a new 'CUSTOMERS' table and created a colum 'CustomerID' as an Identity column.
Now, a problem I find is that when I delete a particular record, its Identity value is used automatically for the New record I insert later!
I do not want to re-use the already used Identity value.
I just want to have the last CustomerID to be higher that all the previous ones.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanking you in advance,
Tomy

Well here's one of those excruciatingly simple obstacles:
In SQL Server 2005 (Mgmt Studio): according to BOL, the syntax to set a default value for an existing column is:
ALTER TABLE MyCustomers ALTER COLUMN CompanyName SET DEFAULT 'A. Datum Corporation'
However, when I Check:
alter table CommissionPayment alter column Amount Set Default 0
I get the error message:
"Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Set'."
No other combinations of this syntax work.
Help! What am I missing?

I have a UDF that returns a char(10) random value. This runs fine when calling it directly via Query Analyzer, Stored Procs, etc.
I now want to create a new column in a table (via the Table Designer) and want to set the default value to the function. I have entered dbo.f_myfunction() for "Default Value", but I get an error:
Unable to modify table.
ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 51 generated fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process.
The function is in the same database as the table. This is all on my local database where I am the admin.
I have also tried database.dbo.f_myfunction(), but I get an Invalid Object error.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you,
JLM

Hi
I have a table with the list of employee and 15 column with data type float or money , that represent the number of hours, airfare,gas,parking food, etc....
I have 2 choice:
-Put 0 as a default value for each column, like that I do not have to use coalesce when I do SUM for each column.
-Leave the default value null but I will have to use coalesce.
In term of performance, what is the best solution?
Thanks

I would like to have the date value 1/1/2499 entered as the default value in a date field if no value is specified. I have added 1/1/2499 as the default value for the column however when I insert a record into the table the date 1/1/1900 is entered even though I haven't specified a date. Any way to accomplish this? Thanks.

I am running a script against a couple of databases on my SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition Instance and I am getting the following in the results pane:
"Default bound to column" I have searched the MS Knowledge base and found a couple of vague references to this. Does anyone know why I might be getting this??? the script 'seems' to run fine.. except for the funky error in the results pane. Script is attached. Thank you!!

I've done some research on setting the default value of a column and found the following code:
ALTER TABLE [table1] ALTER COLUMN [column1] SET DEFAULT 0
I am trying to set column1 within table1 to a default value of 0, column1 is an int data type. But it doesn't work within MS SQL SERVER 2000.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong?

I did this...
ALTER TABLE tm_spn_equip_def ADD Customer_No int NOT NULL DEFAULT dbo.f_spn_GetCustomerNo() WITH VALUES
Now when I attempt to do this...
ALTER TABLE tm_spn_equip_def DROP COLUMN Customer_No
I get an error:
Msg 5074, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The object 'DF__tm_spn_eq__Custo__019E3B86' is dependent on column 'Customer_No'.
Msg 4922, Level 16, State 9, Line 1
ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN Customer_No failed because one or more objects access this column.
How can I get around this?
TIA!

I have a char(11) for SSN, and I would like to default it to123-45-6789 so I can avoid having nulls in this column, and so I caneasily find the rows in which I need to have a 'correct' SSNentered/updated.I tried using just 123-45-6789, and SQL2005 doesn't seem to bedefaulting to this value, it seems to be keeping it as(((123)-(45))-(6789), and not placing it into this column when a newrow is created....Is there some special way I must specify defaults for a char(11) field(Yes, I will include the dashes).Thank you,Tom

I know that the correct syntax to set the default on a column in SQL Server 2005 is:
Alter Table <TableName> Add Constraint <ConstraintName> Default <DefaultValue> For <ColumnName>
But from what I can gather, the SQL-92 syntax is:
Alter Table <TableName> Alter Column <ColumnName> Set Default <DefaultValue>
This generates an error on SQL Server 2005.
Am I wrong about the standard syntax for this statement? If this is the standard, why doesn't SQL Server 2005 support it? I am trying to avoid code that will only work on certain database managers.
Thanks.

Hello all,
I have a table with a column:
ThruDate datetime not null
I have a function call set up as default for the col
([dbo].[fn_DateHigh_Get1]())
I have a stored procedure that inserts into the table - it expects @ThruDate as a parm. I default the parm to NULL -
When the sp executes its insert stmt i get error 515 (null cannot be inserted....).
When i just enter the row manually in enterprise manger (and just tab through the ThruDate col) all is well - ThruDate gets the default as calculated by function [dbo].[fn_DateHigh_Get1]()
Why does the sp fail - i.e. why isn't the default applied?
thanks

I can't seem to get the syntax correct for ALTERing an existing column with a default constraint. I've been to Help and BOL. There are examples that show how to use the ALTER command to add a column with a default constraint but not how to do it on an existing column.
Any help would be appreciated.

I want to set a default value to a column while adding it.
Create table test(id int )
insert into Test values(123)
alter table test add column2 int default(0)
In the above query I have set the default value, but it will not set the default value to the already inserted columns.
So how to set a default value for the already inserted rows, while adding a new column to it ?
