SQL Server 2005 Integration Services - Transaction Support - Part 25

  • Article

The latest article in our series discusses improvements in the transactional support implemented in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services. The more granular scope of transactions, which now can be assigned to arbitrarily designated Control Flow tasks and containers, makes it is possible to limit their impact or execute several of them in parallel. However, even with this improved functionality, you need to keep the blocking issues they might potentially introduce in mind.

Question of the Day

Using CHOOSE()

We have this code that sets some status values and then queries them using the CHOOSE() function in SQL Server 2025.

CREATE TABLE Status
(
    StatusID INT,
    StatusDescription VARCHAR(20)
);
GO
INSERT dbo.Status
(
    StatusID,
    StatusDescription
)
VALUES
(0, 'Uncategorized'),
(1, 'Active'),
(2, 'Inactive'),
(3, 'Temp');

GO
SELECT CHOOSE(StatusID, 'Unknown', 'Active', 'Inactive', 'Temporary')
FROM Status;
When the SELECT runs, what is returned?
