Let's say we have a set of report subscriptions named like this: ClientReport1, ClientReport2, ClientReport3. To run them using the stored procedure, all we need is this […]

User-Created GENERATE_SERIES() Function for Older SQL Server Versions

In the world of SQL Server, adaptation is key. While the built-in GENERATE_SERIES() function was a valuable addition in SQL Server 2022, its absence in older versions created a functionality gap. Enter the user-written GENERATE_SERIES function. Adapted from Jeff Moden's "dbo.fnTally", it offers an efficient means to generate a series of numbers within a defined range in older SQL Server versions. Its design mirrors the built-in function in SQL Server 2022, making the transition between versions as simple as removing the dbo. prefix. This forward-thinking design reflects the ingenuity of the SQL Server community, ensuring a seamless, efficient database migration experience.

Question of the Day

Switching Schemas I

I run this query:

SELECT 
 s.name AS schemaname
 , o.name AS objectname
 FROM sys.objects o
 INNER JOIN sys.schemas s ON s.schema_id = o.schema_id
 WHERE o.name = 'Beer'
I get one row back for an object named dbo.beer. There is an ETL schema and both of these are nonpartitioned tables. I run this code:
ALTER TABLE dbo.beer switch TO etl.beer
What happens?
