Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

The SQL Server Native Client OLE DB provider exposes the ITableDefinition::AddColumn function. This allows consumers to add a column to a SQL Server table.

When you add a column to a SQL Server table, the SQL Server Native Client OLE DB provider consumer is constrained as follows:

  • If DBPROP_COL_AUTOINCREMENT is VARIANT_TRUE, DBPROP_COL_NULLABLE must be VARIANT_FALSE.

  • If the column is defined by using the SQL Server timestamp data type, DBPROP_COL_NULLABLE must be VARIANT_FALSE.

  • For any other column definition, DBPROP_COL_NULLABLE must be VARIANT_TRUE.

Consumers specify the table name as a Unicode character string in the pwszName member of the uName union in the pTableID parameter. The eKind member of pTableID must be DBKIND_NAME.

The new column name is specified as a Unicode character string in the pwszName member of the uName union in the dbcid member of the DBCOLUMNDESC parameter pColumnDesc. The eKind member must be DBKIND_NAME.
