This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.
First (if you haven't already done so) run the script shown above to generate the Doctor Who training database.
Run the following command in SQL:
-- show tables, views, etc in your database
SELECT * from sys.objects
This should list out all of the tables, views, functions, stored procedures, etc in your database. We're interested in the following two codes:
Code | What it is |
---|---|
P | Stored procedure |
FN | Scalar function |
Your manager (probably the same annoying one who has cropped up in previous exercises for SQL) has asked you to create a single table listing out the name, object type and date created for:
Use a temporary table or table variable to accumulate this information. Here's what you should see when you show the rows in this table:
You may have fewer or more objects, depending on which exercises you've done, and your creation dates will certainly be different.
When you've got this all working, show your trainer (s/he'll be impressed), then optionally save this query as System objects.sql and close it down.
