Aakash Kambuj's blog

Windows Live Core
Talking about SQL server topics

Hi all,

My name is Aakash Kambuj, and I'm a developer on the SQL Server team, working on SQL Server 2005. Over the next few weeks, I'm going to be writing about some of the more esoteric features of SQL Server and Transact-SQL, like FOR BROWSE and Bulk Insert, and how their behaviour is improved in SQL Server 2005.

So stay tuned!

-Aakash

My biggest pet bug in SQL2K: Why is it impossible to have multiple cascade paths between two tables? eg:

table a:
field b_id is a foreign key, ON DELETE CASCADE, to table b field id
field c_id is a foreign key, ON DELETE CASCADE, to table c field id

table b:
field id is referenced from table a
field c_id is a foreign key, ON DELETE CASCADE, to table c field id

table c:
field id is referenced from both a and b

SQL 2000 won't let me do this. Will SQL 2005?

Even better would be if I could do cascading deletes on SAME TABLE foreign keys, and have "circular" cascade paths. I've found situations where all of these things would be really useful...
