SET NOEXEC (Transact-SQL)
Compiles each query but does not execute it.
Transact-SQL Syntax Conventions

SET NOEXEC { ON | OFF }
Uwagi
When SET NOEXEC is ON, SQL Server compiles each batch of Transact-SQL statements but does not execute them. When SET NOEXEC is OFF, all batches are executed after compilation.
The execution of statements in SQL Server has two phases: compilation and execution. This setting is useful for having SQL Server validate the syntax and object names in Transact-SQL code when executing. It is also useful for debugging statements that would generally be part of a larger batch of statements.
The setting of SET NOEXEC is set at execute or run time and not at parse time.

Examples
The following example uses NOEXEC with a valid query, a query with an object name that is not valid, and a query with incorrect syntax.
USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
PRINT 'Valid query';
GO
-- SET NOEXEC to ON.
SET NOEXEC ON;
GO
-- Inner join.
SELECT e.BusinessEntityID, e.JobTitle, v.Name
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS e
INNER JOIN Purchasing.PurchaseOrderHeader AS poh
ON e.BusinessEntityID = poh.EmployeeID
INNER JOIN Purchasing.Vendor AS v
ON poh.VendorID = v.BusinessEntityID;
GO
-- SET NOEXEC to OFF.
SET NOEXEC OFF;
GO
PRINT 'Invalid object name';
GO
-- SET NOEXEC to ON.
SET NOEXEC ON;
GO
-- Function name uses is a reserved keyword.
USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Values(@BusinessEntityID int)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN (SELECT PurchaseOrderID, TotalDue
FROM dbo.PurchaseOrderHeader
WHERE VendorID = @BusinessEntityID);
-- SET NOEXEC to OFF.
SET NOEXEC OFF;
GO
PRINT 'Invalid syntax';
GO
-- SET NOEXEC to ON.
SET NOEXEC ON;
GO
-- Built-in function incorrectly invoked.
SELECT *
FROM fn_helpcollations;
-- Reset SET NOEXEC to OFF.
SET NOEXEC OFF;
GO
