[!INCLUDESQL Server Azure SQL Database Synapse Analytics PDW] A [!INCLUDEtsql] code snippet is a template you can use as a starting point when writing new [!INCLUDEtsql] statements in the [!INCLUDEssDE] Query Editor.
You can use the Insert Snippet menu to open a categorized list of snippets to choose from.
[!INCLUDEtsql] snippets contain replacement points: text that suggests the syntax relevant to that point. For example, the CREATE TABLE snippet has replacement points for elements such as the table name, column names, and column data types. After inserting the snippet, you must change the replacement text to form a valid [!INCLUDEtsql] statement. For more information, see Complete Transact-SQL Snippets.
