在團隊開發時，常常會遇到的困難就是資料庫的Table欄位說明不好維護，
不僅版本不一，有時候資料更新很慢，手上的文件資料永遠不會是最正確的版本...
因為大家寫程式都沒空了，哪有時間維護這些文件...簡單的說就是件煩人的差事...

在團隊開發時，常常會遇到的困難就是資料庫的Table欄位說明不好維護，
不僅版本不一，有時候資料更新很慢，手上的文件資料永遠不會是最正確的版本...
因為大家寫程式都沒空了，哪有時間維護這些文件...簡單的說就是件煩人的差事...

就算真的大家有空可以維護SQL文件了，卻還是要透過word文件分享，或是同事各自印各自的"武功祕笈"流傳...
對於持續在開發專案的團隊來說，這樣資料的分享方式，真的是太慢了，
而且重點是大家永遠都拼不出最完整的版本~哈

那為什麼不乾脆把Table的明細說明就直接寫在資料庫上呢？備份一起備份，新增一起新增，那該多好？

如果還能透過web查詢，把這資料直接秀在網頁上，或是產生成PDF檔，那豈不樂哉？

基於有了這樣的懶惰想法~所以前陣子就索性研究起來，然後才有了今天這個分享，希望有興趣的朋友可以試試看。

或是分享更簡單方便的作法:)

目前我們自己撰寫的查詢介面如下，可以查詢到table跟view的資料，另外也可以產生PDF檔列印，
讓有需要的同事可以隨時上網查詢及列印。

這篇文章的重點有兩個：

1. 利用工具協助維護SQL的資料。
2. 如何透過SQL query 來獲取資料庫Table欄位明細。

1. 利用工具協助維護SQL的資料。

在同事 kiwi 的介紹下，得知了在codeplex有套好用的SQL工具 Data Dictionary Creator ，
它可以協助你修改SQL的Table資料。

大家可以去 http://datadictionary.codeplex.com/ 下載。

它是用C#寫的，有source code，支援SQL2005，你可以自行中文化，看起來會比較順眼些 : )
小弟只是稍微修改了幾個地方，主要是希望看起來直覺些罷了。

首先要先設定與資料庫的連線，他有wizard，很方便！

接下來設定擴充屬性，這也是這軟體強的地方，讓你自定義擴充屬性，讓你的資料維護的更詳細，
在這裡我定義了reference及memo兩個欄位，作為參考table及備註。
切換到維護的畫面，因為已經跟SQL連線，所以當你選擇Table時，會自動將schema帶出，
再加上剛剛設定的兩個擴充屬性的欄位，也已經自動幫我們加好了，真的好方便啊！

剩下的，你只需要將資料補一補，打完資料後，只要修改的那欄 LostFocus，它就會回寫資料到
SQL Server，所以並無儲存鈕唷！
進到SQL Server，可以看到Table_1的MS_Description屬性已經更改了。

而欄位的部份也已經更改了。

欄位的擴充屬性也填上了我們自建的reference及memo說明。

到這邊算是成功了一半^_^

2. 如何透過SQL query 來查詢資料庫的說明。

SQL2005與SQL2000語法有些不同，我建議使用下列的語法建立一個view，供後續程式設計，
而語法說明我就不再解釋了，因為聰明如大家，從下列語法就可以知道哪些是關鍵的Table，
然後對照搜尋出的資料，我想應該蠻好理解的^_^

另外裡面因為有我自定義的兩個擴充欄位reference及memo，所以如果要直接使用的話，請自行修正，不然會找不到資料。

最後稍微撰寫一下屬於你自己的查詢程式，就可以有很好的效果了。

最後一張圖是我們產生的PDF檔畫面，是不是很方便阿？隨時隨地都有最新的資料！
