ComputedText Property

  • Article

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The ComputedText property contains the Transact-SQL expression used to generate the value of a computed column.

Syntax

object
.ComputedText [=value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • value
    A string

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetComputedText(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetComputedText(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

Note

SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

A number of restrictions apply to the Transact-SQL statements available when a computed column is defined. For more information, see CREATE TABLE (Transact-SQL).
