Hi EveryoneI have a merge statement which ends with the following
WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE THEN
DELETE;
Now I need to record the deleted records in a table and I am having no luck getting the output to work. The records I need to record look like the following.
OID (int)
Version (int)
QK varchar(32)
GD varchar(32)
Geometry (Geometry)
and I would like to add a date column to record when the delete took place.
What do you mean that you are not having any luck getting output to work? I don't see OUTPUT in your query here at all. You can reference the deleted virtual table in a MERGE statement just like a trigger.
