The GO
keyword is not T-SQL, but a SQL Server Management Studio artifact that allows you to separate the execution of a script file in multiple batches.I.e. when you run a T-SQL script file in SSMS, the statements are run in batches separated by the GO
keyword. More details can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188037.aspx
If you read that, you’ll see that sqlcmd and osql do also support GO
.
SQL Server doesn’t understand the GO
keyword. So if you need an equivalent, you need to separate and run the batches individually on your own.
