SQL Server 2000 - ALTER TABLE + INSERT INTO = Errors?

Question

I\'m trying to alter a table to add a new column, then insert a new row into it.

ALTER TABLE Roles ADD ModifiedDate DateTime;
INSERT INTO Roles (Name, [Descr         


        

Answer 1

What about transations?

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
ALTER TABLE Roles ADD ModifiedDate DateTime;
GO;
COMMIT TRANSACTION;

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
INSERT INTO Roles (Name, [Description], CreatedBy, BuiltIn, Created, ModifiedDate) VALUES ('Name', 'Description', 0, 1, GETDATE(), GETDATE());
GO;
COMMIT TRANSACTION;
