I am going to drop a primary key from one column and create a new
column to be used as primary key in an existing database.
The old column was a date column which someone earlier though was a
good candidate for a primary key which we all know it's not.
Now I want to add a new field, i.e. called ID, with a normal number
sequence as primary key.
I have dropped the primary key, created the new column, created the
new sequence and created...

I made a table this way:
mysql>create table tblCourses (courseCode char(30) primary key,
courseDescription char(50));
Now I realize that I forgot to enforce that both fields will not be null.
So I tried this:
mysql> alter table tblCourses (courseCode not null, courseDescription not
null);

ALTER TABLE
DEFAULT COLUMN
DEFAULT VALUE
I've worked out several stored procedures for altering the default column
values in a table. They were compiled from books and code snippets found
here. It was a pain to work out so I've decided to share my work and
research here. This post is just my way of saying thanks to several others
here for posting with their wisdom and intelligence.

Hi,
I want to change the datatype of an existing column from char to
varbinary. When I run the "Alter Table" statement, I get the
following error message -
Disallowed implicit conversion from data type char to data type
varbinary, table 'test.dbo.testalter', column 'col1'. Use the CONVERT
function to run this query.

I would like to add an Identity to an existing column in a table using a
stored procedure then add records to the table and then remove the identity
after the records have been added or something similar.
here is a rough idea of what the stored procedure should do. (I do not know
the syntax to accomplish this can anyone help or explain this?
Thanks much,

I have properties that wrap DataRow columns as in:
public int aNumber
{ get{ return m_DataRow; }
set{ m_DataRow = value; } }
If the column happens to contain DBNull, I get a cast
exception since DBNull cannot be converted to int. I
wrote the following method that looks up the column's
data type and if it is a ValueType, returns the default
value for the ValueType.

Hi,
I have a tableevent] with a columnevent_description] as ntext and default value ''. Now, I want to change the column type to nvarchar(max) using this script,
alter table
alter column nvarchar(max) null ;
The event_description column was created with a default value ''.
Now this constraint is not allowing me to alter the column type. It throws an exception,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
