Is there an easier way to determine which tables in a db are the largest other than running sp_spaceused for each table? Interested mainly in physical size.
Thanks
Hi,
I want to know the top 20 largest tables in my database, by the size NOT by the number of rows. Can anyone give me a query which does it for me?
Thanks in advance,

How do i select first name of the lets say 6th highest salary of an employee?
is it use Select TOP statement?
p/s: I just want the 6th largest fname not the top 6. so it will only return one value.
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Hey
Its easy to get the MAX or MIN from a table,
but what if you want to get the 2nd largest ? or 2nd smallest ?
I am trying to retrieve all rows with the largest value in a particular column. The largest value could return many rows for a particular users. Here is what I have thus far.
SELECT DISTINCT
ID, NAME, FOP, ACCT, CTNUM, ENDDATE, DEBIT, CREDIT, TRANSACTION_DATE, EXPORTED, CALENDAR_YEAR, FISCAL_YEAR, PAYROLL_IDENTIFIER,
PAYROLL_NUMBER, [EARN-SEQNO], EVENT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER
FROM (SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ID, ACCT, PAYROLL_NUMBER,EVENT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER
ORDER BY EVENT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER DESC) AS RN
FROM PAYROLLYEAREND ) s
WHERE RN = 1 AND ID = '16443' AND PAYROLL_NUMBER ='7'
In the above example, the EVENT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER is populated with values from 0 to 12. Could vary per user and PAYROLL_NUMBER. The query above returns 48 rows. However, all I want are the rows where EVENT_SEQUENCE_NUMBER is equal to the highest, which is in the above example is 12. The result would be 29 rows. The where clause is not part of overall query. Just isolating on one ID.
Greetings
I was tring to cast an xml document using varchar(max) but it chops it off at excatly 9643 when I do SELECT @varcharProductionBody = CAST(@xmlProductionBody AS VARCHAR(MAX))
PRINT LEN(@varcharProductionBody)
So what is the largest data type for string and/or characters in SQL 2005? I have looked high and low but am unable to find one.
Thanks

CA1000
CA10001
CA10002
CA10003
CA11597
CA11603
CA1001
CA998
CA999
As you can see, CA11603 is the largest number in this list.
When I try the follow sql code,
SELECT
MAX([MyCode])
FROM
[MyTable]
WHERE (SUBSTRING([MyCode], 1, 2) = 'CA')
The largest number comes back as CA997
When I try
MAX([MyCode])
FROM
[MyTable]
WHERE [MyCode] LIKE 'CA%'
The largest number comes back as CA997
SELECT
TOP 1 (SchoolMasterCode)
FROM
SchoolMaster
WHERE (SUBSTRING(SchoolMasterCode, 1, 2) = 'CA') ORDER BY Schoolmastercode
The largest comes back as CA10001
When I try....
SELECT
TOP 1 (SchoolMasterCode)
FROM
SchoolMaster
WHERE (SUBSTRING(SchoolMasterCode, 1, 2) = 'CA')
The largest comes back as CA1278
What am I doing wrong?
I would like to determine the largest numeric datatype scale of a column.
Decimal Largest Scale Solution found here.
Sample Data:
2222.0002430
2222.0000245
2222.0023455
I usually go for the largest datafile and then query in-there...But now I need to automate it for several instances... I need to be able with one script quickly retrieve the top 5 largest tables for the entire instance,not by database...
