Add the NOT FOR REPLICATION Option to Existing Tables

Hello,

How to add the NOT FOR REPLICATION Option to Existing Tables( IDENTITY column,FOREIGN KEY constraints )- TSQL.

Thanks,

Kanna.

alter table dbo.testtable

alter column [id] add NOT FOR REPLICATION

Add a where condition only if a parameter exists

I'm pretty new to TSQL. I'm trying to write a generic proc that returns
either ALL records from a table or (if a parameter is set to 1) or only a
sub-set of that table (if parameter is set to 0).
Here's an example of what I'm aiming for:
Create table contact (
contactID int,
FullName varchar (40),
IsActive bit)
Create procedure sp_select_Contacts
@.ContactID int,
@.ShowAll bit = null
AS
-- if @.ShowAll is null, return all records
--otherwise limit records to records where isActive = True
How can I conditionally add a WHERE clause based on the value of @.ShowAll?
Thanks!
- JohnnyI presume that ContactId is the prinary key of Contacts. If this is the case
,
skip the @.ShowAll parameter.
If @.ContactId is null then have it return all, otherwise have it return only
that contact:
SELECT *
FROM Contacts
WHERE ContactId = COALESCE(@.ContactId,ContactId)

something like (untested)
Create procedure sp_select_Contacts
@.ContactID int,
@.ShowAll bit = null
AS
declare @.sql varchar(8000)
set @.sql = 'select * from contact'
if @.showall is not null
set @.sql = @.sql + ' where isactive = 1'
exec (@.sql)
go

...where isActive = isnull(@.ShowAll, 0) or isActive = @.ShowAll

actual creator of a database

Does anyone know how to obain the actual creator of a database by using TSQL or SP? I need to know actual Login not DBO.

Thanks.

You can access the system table directly:

select suser_sname(sid)
from master..sysdatabases
where name = 'tempdb'

There maybe an inbuilt T-SQL function that would tell you this, which would be a preferable way of getting the info.

HTH!

You cannot do this (exactly) that I know of. You can get the owner of the database using the code in the other post:

select suser_sname(sid)
from master..sysdatabases
where name = 'tempdb'

or

select name, suser_sname(owner_sid)

from sys.databases

The owner can be changed though using: sp_changedbowner, so you are actually getting the current owner. That may be good enough for your needs, but it is a caveat you should understand.
