How to convert from string to date / datetime? in sql server

Execute the following T-SQL scripts in Microsoft SQL Server Manangement Studio Query Editor to demonstrate T-SQL convert and cast functions in transforming string date, string time & string datetime data to datetime data type. T-SQL date / datetime functions usage examples are presented as well.

Preventing the Drop and Alter table in Sql Server Using DDL Trigger

In the following example, DDL trigger safety will fire whenever a DROP_TABLE or ALTER_TABLE
event occurs in the database.

CREATE TRIGGER safety
ON DATABASE
FOR DROP_TABLE, ALTER_TABLE
AS
PRINT 'You must disable Trigger "safety" to drop or alter tables!'
ROLLBACK

Difference between sp_executesql and EXEC() in Sql Server

EXEC() - whose first parameter is a parameterized SQL statement.
sp_executesql - The second parameter is a parameter-list declaration, similar to the parameter
list present in the declaration of a stored procedure.

If the malicious user enters a value as Sql Injection EXEC() execute the maliculous code
but sp_executesql It will search for the value ' or '1'='1 as product name in the database.
Thus preventing SQL Injection attacks.

How to Reset Auto Increment ID + SQL Server

USE dbname
GO
DBCC CHECKIDENT (tablename, RESEED, 0)

it will reset to 0 again, but u r col is primary key not continue insert rows because in that col is not support duplicates.


u r column only auto increment then support but duplicates is there.

but u need last all rows is deleted and reset auto increment value assigned exec perfectly.
