Default constraint not working

Seth Schrock
2,965 Recognized Expert Specialist
I have three bit fields in a table that I have set to NOT NULL so that I can link to the table from MS Access. On each of these three fields, I have setup default constraints to set the value to False (0). This has been working for over a year now. All of a sudden, they have stopped working and every time I try to add a record to this table through MS Access, I get an error message that says Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'AppraisalReque sted', table 'LoanTracking.d bo.tblAppraisal s'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails (#515) I have tried removing and re-adding the constraint to the field and that doesn't change anything. Here is the script I used to add the constraint:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. ALTER TABLE [dbo].[tblAppraisals] ADD  CONSTRAINT [DF_tblAppraisals_AppraisalRequested]  DEFAULT ((0)) FOR [AppraisalRequested]
  2. GO
I'm using SQL Server 2005 currently.

Did you upgrade database server/driver or installed multiple versions ?

No, there was changes made. No restore from backup, no server updates, etc.

There are two tables, parent and child table. Foreign key field of the child table is not a required field. If the data is submitted w/o a value into the foreign key field, what should I make it as a default value? Should it be "null"?

I have several default constraints defined on a table. When I use the Object Browser and expand the constraints for this table and right-click and then select "Script Object to New Window As Create", a create constraint statement for a different default constraint is displayed than the one I just right-clicked on. For example, I click on constraint "DF_C" and it shows me "DF_B". The last time I encountered this, the solution was to...

Hi! I'm wondering whether it's possible to set up the MS SQL function ISNULL() as a default value to avoid NULL entries when importing data into a table?! For example, I want the column1, to have a 0 (zero) as default value, when entering/importing data: isnull("column1",0) I remember that it is possible to set up with a date function like

Hi I am working on SQL SERVER 200 and I am trying to drop the default constraints set in few tables. I tired to follow the instructions given in MSDN for dropping a default: 1) Unbind the code Exec sp_unbindefault 'tablename.columname' When I try to run it, it gives me following this error message: Server: Msg 15049, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_unbindefault, Line 98

Hi, all.. I'm creating a table with one column of type DATE, non nullable, with a default of the current date. The column syntax I'm using is "THIS_DATE_1 DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT DATE" On LUW, the constraint compiles - I insert a row and the date value is inserted with the correct default.

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: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
