UnbindFromDatatype Method

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 UnbindFromDatatype method breaks the binding between a Microsoft SQL Server default or rule and a user-defined data type.

Syntax

object.UnbindFromDatatype(Datatype, [ FutureOnly ] )

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

  • Datatype
    String that identifies an existing user-defined data type by name.

  • FutureOnly
    When TRUE, columns defined using the data type maintain the rule or default though the default no longer exhibits the behavior.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT UnbindFromDatatype(
SQLDMO_LPCSTR Datatype,
BOOL bFutureOnly = FALSE);
