A little Help

  • Base on the code bellow, it actually works but the fact is that it does not show the complete create statement. if there anything you can do to help, I will be very grateful. The code is as follows

  • leaders_j that code snippet you have is really old; i bet it's from 5 years ago.

    It's from a project i play with now and then that scripts any table via TSQL.

    are you trying to script the CREATE table statements?

    i've got some really advanced versions of that code since i wrote that, that are no longer cursor based.

    try this version for now:

    Get any Tables DDL via TSQL

    my newest version (v309) scripts any object act all(procedure/function/table/view etc.

    I should note that everything my script does, the GUI does, and probably better, but i love writing my own solutions.

  • yeah, i switched away from SQL2000 a while ago, and all my scripts are targeted for the newer platform.

    take a look at this script contribution i made for SQL 2000:

  • leaders_j (10/20/2010)


    Thanks, the code works but it truncates the result of must of my tables. Is there anything you can do?

    since SQL 2000 is limited to varchar(8000), and you may have table definitions that are longer than that, what with the formatting that proc uses, you are limited if you have to have it in a single string. That version will give truncated results for long definitions.

    if a multi row results are ok, you can try this version, which returns a table...basically each column as it's own row:

  • I tried the code and I got the following errors

    Server: Msg 8101, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_GetDDL2, Line 78

    An explicit value for the identity column in table '#Results' can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON.

  • i don't have a true SQL 2000 installation, and the code works flawlessly in SQL 80 compatibility mode.

    try doing a find and replace for INSERT INTO #Results --> INSERT INTO #Results([sql])

  • Thanks, you've really been helpfull. This time I can not script another table from another database. It give the message -"Table object [dbo].[CASE_CONFIRM] does not exist in Database [master]". I will be grateful if you help me out

  • it's in the comments of hte proc:

    --#############################################################################

    --if you are going to put this in MASTER, and want it to be able to query

    --each database's sys.indexes, you MUST mark it as a system procedure:

    --EXECUTE sp_ms_marksystemobject 'sp_GetDDL2'

    --#############################################################################

    for SQL 2000, i'm not sure that proc exists...you can do it this way also:

    --Turn system object marking on

    EXEC master.dbo.sp_MS_upd_sysobj_category 1

    GO

    CREATE PROCEDURE sp_GETDDL2 AS ....

    GO

    --Turn system object marking off

    EXEC master.dbo.sp_MS_upd_sysobj_category 2
