MSSQL preguntas y respuestas de entrevista
Pregunta 1. What is the simplest way to create a new database in MS SQL Server?
The simplest way to create a new database is to use the "CREATE DATABASE" statement with this syntax:
CREATE DATABASE database_name
For example, run this statement:
CREATE DATABASE YourDataBaseName
GO
A new database called "YourDataBaseName" should be created in the SQL server. Of course, YourDataBaseName database should be empty at this moment - no tables. But it should have some other data objects automatically created by the server.
Pregunta 2. How to set the current database in MS SQL Server?
Once you are connected to the SQL Server, you should select a database to work with and set it as the current database using the "USE" statement with this syntax:
USE database_name
The following tutorial example shows you how to set "YourDataBaseName" as the current database, and create a table in "YourDataBaseName":
USE YourDataBaseName
GO
Changed database context to 'YourDataBaseName'.
CREATE TABLE Links (Name NVARCHAR(32))
GO
SELECT name, type_desc, create_date FROM sys.tables
GO
name type_desc create_date
Links USER_TABLE 2007-05-19 23:05:43.700
Pregunta 3. How to delete a database in MS SQL Server?
If you created a database incorrectly, or you have a database that is not needed any more, you can delete it with the "DROP DATABASE" statement with this syntax:
DROP DATABASE database_name
For example, execute this statement:
DROP DATABASE YourDataBaseName
GO
The database "YourDataBaseName" created in the previous tutorial should be deleted from the SQL server.
Warning, if you delete a database, all tables and their data in that database will be deleted.
Pregunta 4. Why I am getting this error when dropping a database in MS SQL Server?
If you are trying to drop a database that is in use, you will get an error message like this: 'Cannot drop database "withoutbook" because it is currently in use.'
Before dropping a database, you must stop all client sessions using this database. If your own client session is using this database, you should set a different database as the current database as shown in this tutorial example:
CREATE DATABASE withoutbook
GO
USE withoutbook
GO
DROP DATABASE withoutbook
GO
Msg 3702, Level 16, State 4, Server LOCALHOSTSQLEXPRESS
Cannot drop database "withoutbook" because it is
currently in use.
USE master
GO
DROP DATABASE withoutbook
GO
