Stored procedure: Generate code for ad hoc data operations

  • Article

A SQL Server DBA often needs to perform ad hoc operations on data in their databases. The tasks can typically be handled with simple T-SQL statements, but other times a more complex operation is called for – and having to manually enter all the T-SQL code necessary for such an operation is not appealing! It can be difficult to perfect the syntax, and tedious to list column names once, twice or even three times. Fortunately, useful template code can be easily generated instead of being entered by hand.

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?
