Overview
constraint ensures that all values in a column are unique.
and
constraints provide a guarantee for uniqueness for a column or set of columns. However, you can have many
constraints per table, but only one
constraint per table.
constraint for the "ID" column upon creation of the "Persons" table:
Formula
SQL Server / Oracle / MS Access:( ID int NOT NULL UNIQUE, LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL, FirstName varchar(255),
);( ID int NOT NULL, LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL, FirstName varchar(255), Age int, UNIQUE (ID)
);constraint, and to define a UNIQUE constraint on multiple columns, use the following SQL syntax:
( ID int NOT NULL, LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL, FirstName varchar(255), Age int, CONSTRAINT UC_Person UNIQUE (ID,LastName)
);constraint on the "ID" column when the table is already created, use the following SQL syntax:
ADD UNIQUE (ID);constraint, and to define a UNIQUE constraint on multiple columns, use the following SQL syntax:
ADD CONSTRAINT UC_Person UNIQUE (ID,LastName);constraint, use the following SQL:
