Error 128 Upsizing Default Value to SQL Server

MORE INFORMATION

A default value for a column in SQL Server cannot reference the names of any columns or other database objects. The default value must contain a valid expression. For example, if you want to create a default value for a column called State so that each new entry would use the default value WA, use the following program:

   * Connect to a SQL server using a predefined datasource.
   xhandle = SQLCONNECT(DataSourceName, cUserID, cPassword)
   IF xhandle > 0
      WAIT WINDOW "Successful Connection. Handle = " + STR(xhandle)
   ELSE
      WAIT WINDOW "Bad connection"
      =errhand()
      RETURN
   ENDIF

   * Use the appropriate database.
   x = sqlexec(xhandle,"use pubs")
   IF x < 0
       =errhand()
       RETURN
   ENDIF

   * Create the default.
   x = SQLEXEC(xhandle,"create default mystate as 'WA' ")
   IF x < 0
      =errhand()
      RETURN
   ENDIF

   * Run a stored procedure to bind the default "mystate" to a
   * specific column.
   x = SQLEXEC(xhandle,"sp_bindefault mystate, 'authors.state' ")
   IF x < 0
     =errhand()
     RETURN
   ENDIF

   * Each new row inserted will contain the value 'WA' for authors.state
   * if a value is not supplied.

   * Disconnect
   x = SQLDISCONNECT(xhandle)
   IF x < 0
      =errhand()
      RETURN
   ENDIF

   PROCEDURE errhand
     =AERROR(myerror)
     CLEAR
     ? 'An error has occurred.'
     FOR n = 1 to 7
       ? myerror(n)
     ENDFOR
     = SQLDISCONNECT(xhandle)
   RETURN
