Sample text
In SQL Server 2005, a SELECT statement can also be used to make an assignment. For example, the following example assigns 100 to col1, and 200 to col2: SELECT col1=100, col2=200 with the results: col1 col2 ----------- ----------100 200 (1 row(s) affected) 43 44 "col1" and "col2" are column aliases. Column aliases are discussed in detail later in this chapter. SELECT 'A', 'B' produces: ---- ---A B (1 row(s) affected) Note that this output has no headings either. SELECT 4+3, 4-3, 4*3, 4/3 produces: ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------7 1 12 1 (1 row(s) affected) To include meaningful column headings here, we can type: SELECT Additions=4+3, Subtractions=4-3, Multiplications=4*3, Divisions=4/3 which results in: Additions Subtractions Multiplications Divisions ----------- ------------ --------------- ----------7 1 12 1 (1 row(s) affected) "/" gives the whole-number quotient of a division.
We provide this information for later reference, should you have to delete tables. 9. Deleting a Database To delete a database, right-click on the database that you would like to delete, and select Delete, as shown in Figure 1-24. 34 35 But please do not delete the database right now. Figure 1-24. 10. Entering a SQL Query or Statement Like every computer language, a SQL query or statement is used to give instructions to the computer. A query is a request for data stored in SQL Server. The computer analyzes each instruction and interprets it.
Figure 1-25 also displays, on the bottom panel of the screen, the name of the database and the number of rows in the result set. 3. Saving Results to File To save your query results to a file, from Figure 1-26, select Results to File icon (this icon is shown in Figure 1-26), and then click the Execute button. The Save Results window will come up and you will be able to select the appropriate directory and enter the appropriate filename and save the results to file for later use. The Results to File option produces output formatted for Crystal Reports.
