I want to know if I can create an Identity (auto increment on a Varchar column. and how can I make it a primary key and create foreign key references on other table.
This is the code i have -
CREATE TABLE Questions(
QuestionID int IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
QuestionNo as 'Q'+Cast(QuestionID as Varchar(10),
Question Varchar(200)
)
Is there a way I can make QuestionNo as Primary key and reference it in another table (say Answers (AnswerID, QuestionNo, AnswerText)?
This worked for me on SQL Server 2005:
CREATE TABLE Questions(
QuestionID int IDENTITY NOT NULL,
QuestionNo as 'Q'+Cast(QuestionID as Varchar(10)) PERSISTED PRIMARY KEY,
Question Varchar(200)
)
The main part is that a computed column needs the PERSISTED keyword...
this code is working
CREATE TABLE IdentityExample(
ID int IDENTITY NOT NULL,
QNo as 'Q'+Cast(ID as Varchar(10)) PERSISTED PRIMARY KEY,
name Varchar(200)
)
