Recursion is notoriously slow for iteration. Maybe use a "standard" tally table instead:
;WITH
cte_tally10 AS (
SELECT * FROM (VALUES(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) AS numbers(number)
),
cte_tally100 AS (

CREATE VIEW must be in a batch by itself, i.e., without GOs, you could create only one view per script.
Since GOs are likely not valid, that may be what you...

In this case it doesn't. But what is the harm in CASTing?

The first three rows in the table DO all match the first "<" condition: 00:05:xx and 00:10:xx are less than 00:15:xx. Only the second condition limits the result to a...

For example, when the lengths are consistent, it seems to produce the desired result:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS #xr;
CREATE TABLE #xr ( length_min varchar(8) NOT NULL, length_max varchar(8)...

It seems like this is a character comparison. If so, "00:15:18" would not compare correct "0:...", since you have two leading zeros vs one leading zero. If you're going to...

Don't change the CASTing for the bits in the WHERE clause, leave as is. Otherwise I believe SQL will default to a different data type which would force a column...

Somehow you left out the "SET @MyBit = 0" on one function?

Except stay completely away from INFORMATION_SCHEMA views, which are more overhead anyway. Use sys.tables, sys.columns, etc., instead.

Sample data and results are almost always clearer than just a textual explanation. I hope this matches what you need:

ISNULL(t2.CarColor, t1.CarColor) AS CarColor,

IF I understand the q correctly, then:

t1.CarName,
t1.CarStatus

SQL wouldn't necessarily have to scan the entire table, if the relevant columns happened to be in a nonclus index -- not likely here, but theoretically possible.
