Print a message inside while loop

Question

Hi, I want to track the iteration of the loop while loop run. So I print a message for each iteration.
But print message appears only after the loop completes , it does not print values for each iteration.
I also tried to use the following workaround by going through one article but it doesn't work, Please help:
declare
@countint=1
while
(@count<10)
begin
print
'iteration'+convert(varchar(10),@count)
raiserror
('just
to raise an error',10,1)
waitfor
delay'00:00:01'
set
@count+=1
end

Answer 1

You could try using a temp table instead and capture the results that way.
e.g.
declare
@countint=1
create table #temp (IterationText (nvarchar(255))
while
(@count<10)
begin
Insert into #temp (IterationText) select (‘iteration'+convert(varchar(10),@count)
raiserror
('just to raise an error',10,1)
waitfor
delay'00:00:01'
set
@count+=1
Select * from #Temp
end
