synonym in SQL Server

  • Hi all,

               I have a big question can I make a synonym in sql server as like in Oracle.

              "create synonym emp for employee" like this.

    Help me its urgent.

                                                     Thanks in advance.

  • SQL Server didn't have synonym object like in oracle.

  • As Deni Kusdeni mentioned, the current production versions of SQL Server does not support synonyms.  However, SQL 2005 will have the ability to assign synonyms to objects. 

    You probably can't wait that long though ...


    Have a good day,

  • Curiosity question. Why would you want to create a synonym name for employee as emp ..... why cant you just use the three part name ?
