  I read this article trying to understand the feature of data masking in SQL server.

  https://www.sqlservercentral.com/blogs/static-data-masking-ssms-18-0-preview

  But in SSMS I cannot find it in the menu. I tried on Version 18.9, and 18.0, no shows.

  so is this feature gone?

   

  Thanks

  I don't believe it actually hit the streets.  I think it was only in preview version.

  RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
  First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
  ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

  Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
