Hi All -
I have come across the need to use a cube in AS 2005 for an application. Unfortunately this will be the first time writting an ASP.Net application which uses one. I was wondering if any of you had any good books or references that I could look at to get an idea of how I should approach this issue.
Thanks in advance.
I got the following problem to solve in TSQL. I don't want to use a cursor. But with the set based solution I am stuck.
Here is my problem:
DECLARE @tmp TABLE (CustomerID INT, CustomerLink INT, PRIMARY KEY(CustomerID))
INSERT @tmp
VALUES(100001,0)
,(100002,100001)
,(100003,100001)
,(100004,100003)
,(100005,100006)
[Code] ....
Desired result:
[CustomerID of a group member],[smallest CustomerID per Group]
|(GroupID)|CustomerID|CustomerLink|
|100001 |100001 |100001 |
|100001 |100002 |100001 |
|100001 |100003 |100001 |
|100001 |100004 |100001 |
|100005 |100005 |100005 |
[Code] .....
doesn't work for crossreferences :.(
RESULTSET:
CustomerID CustomerLink
100001 100001
100002 100001
100003 100001
100004 100001
100005 100005
100006 100006 --wrong
[Code] .....
This is my problem: I have a dynamic web reference for a SQL Server UDF coded in C#, but I am unsure of where URL for the webservice is being read from.
I am working with SQL Server 2005 to create a User Defined Function, however I need to have a web reference to the SQLReportingService2005 web service. I will be distributing this function to my customers so I need this web reference to be dynamic.
Although the webservice says it is dynamic, I do not see a app.config file to place the changing URL. Does anyone know where a dynamic web service pulls the URL from in this case?
Thanks in advance,
Sean
Hi all
i am beginner with sql server 2005
and i need good books for good beginning
i found many books but i dont know which book i chose ...
what is the books you advice me to read for stability begnning ??
thank you
Well, after having a crash course on backups, tlogs and some other good stuff, I pretty much made the decision that I need to get some good books to further help me progress in my database admin path.
Right now, we are running SQL 2000 SP4, but we are planning on upgrading to 2005. With that, and the fact I am pretty new to databases, what books are recommended?
I want to get a book that will help me:
-better administration
-write SQL query code as well as understand it (what is difference between SQL programming and SQL query (such as on the sqlteam bookstore)
I feel that my career path is going to start heading down a Database path, so anything that you recommend with that is great as well.
I can't thank everyone enough for the help and input here. Everyone has been great!
Cheers

Hi,
I am trying to determine a couple of books that will help me understand SQL Server 2005 from a few of perspectives:
Optimizing databases, specifically from SQL 2000 - I have a recommended book Pro SQL Server 2005 Database Design and Optimization
Developing SQL Server 2005 based applications using VIsual Studio 2005 and .NET 2.0 - I have been unable to narrow down to a specific book here. I learn best by example, so I was hoping for a book that basically goes through implementing a "real world" project from scratch to finish. I am going to be using the full-blown enterprise edition of SQL 2005, not the Express Edition; but a book that uses the Express Edition trumps any other book, I would be open to it. Any suggestions on such a book?
Understanding T-SQL and Stored Procedures from a SQL Server 2005 perspective -- Any suggestions? A book that spells out the differences from SQL 2000 would be an added advantage.
Thanks.
Can you guys pls suggest Good books on SQL Server 2005 ??
Thx

I am trying to install sql server 2005 books online but I am failing and I am getting this message
"This installation pakage could not be opened.Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"
am I doing anything wrong or has the version of books online changed? Do I have to install anything else before installing it? or does my operating system not support it?
Thanks
I downloaded and tried to install the file "SqlServer2K5_BOL_May2007.msi" and got a message:
"This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package."
Please advise.
Can some one give me detail instruction to installing the SQL Server 2005 Express Books Online.
I am new to SQL Server and want to install the MS training material.
I am not new to the SQL Server world, but am somewhat new to the SQL Server 2005 world. I am just getting into the reporting tool. By just messing around for about an hour or so, I was able to get what I wanted somewhat. Basically, I'd like to get up to speed on the reporting side of things fairly quickly. So I am looking at some books, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on any.
Here is a few that caught my eye:
-MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services by Brian Larson
-MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services for Dummies
-Professional SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services by Paul Turley
-The Rational Guide to SQL Server Reporting Services
I am thinking the 1st two would probably be my best bet, but wanted to get you folks suggestions.
Let me know as soon as you can as I am planning on going to the book store tonight or this weekend.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Whats the definitoin. I've been digging for a while, but cannot locate.
TIA, cfr
Normally, you establish referential integrity so that foreign key in one table points to a primary in another. Here is a composite key:
(A_ref, B_ref) => (A, B)
Consider a situation where A is a primary key in table T1. It is refered by T2, which has A,B as it's prmary key. An example of this situation would be a table of printers and table of batches a printer has printed at specific date. The batches are identified by Printer, Date, BatchNo within the date. Now, we create a temporary table T3, which addresses "today" batches. The "today" reference is taken from a date is taken from some record in the DB and, combined with the Printer ID and BatchNo, must point to a record in T2. Is it possible to specify such a complex relationship to ensure the referential integrity?
The advantages of the integirty are:
-- the referred records are pinned down from removal
-- it is not possible to refer unexisting object; thus, the referee is ensured to refer an existing one.
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm doing a web application that will get some information from an ERP.
At this moment I have 2 databases:
1) The aspnetdb, where I have the tables for Merbership and Role
2) The ERP database
I need to put my web application tables on one of these two DB's. This tables will reference the users from the membership and some products from the ERP DB.
I will store products requests that will store both UserID (from aspnetdb) and ProductID (from ERP DB). I'm thinking to put these tables on the aspnetdb, so that all web application tables stick together. But, I will loose tha ability to make joins with the ERP database, right?
Do you think this will work? Can someone make some comments about this situation, and give me some tips?
Thank you!
I am currently developing a stored procedure that includes a number of computed fields. Is it possible to reference a computed value, (eg. FLdA), or do I need to CREATE a temp file and then reference the FldA and FldB values. I have simplified my code, it is much more extensive in that there are numerous WHEN clauses attached to each FldA and FldB computation.
SELECT FldA = CASE
WHEN .... THEN CurQty * 1.5
WHEN .... THEN CurQty * 1.75 ELSE 0 END),
FldB = CASE .....
NewValue = CASE
WHEN .... THEN FldA * CurValue
WHEN .... THEN FldB * CurValue
etc.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a data list that will grow over time. The values are listed vertically in a column; most recent value at the bottom. I am trying to figure out how to setup a formula to figure out the standard deviation on the most recent 30 values automatically. For instance if the column contains 30 values and I add the 31st value, I'd like to have to have the standard deviation displayed in a cell and automatically shift from calculating on values 1-30 to values 2-31. Is this possible?

We installed SQL7 over the weekend. Everything was working peachy through yesterday. This morning SQL server is requiring all of the queries to require references to the username in the from clause...
For example
"Select * from mytable" used to work fine. Not it requires "select * from username.mytable"
I'm logged in as the same username, which is the DB Owner as well. Any idea why this is happening all the sudden?
TIA

I'm not sure why it's complaining... can anyone help me out here?

How do you add a reference if the assembly you want to reference does not live in C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727? It doesn't seem to make sense that you cannot access the connections the AquireConnection() method serves since the interfaces are defined in Microsoft.SQLServer.DTSRuntimeWrap.dll (in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SDKAssemblies).
For example the code below works fine, in order to make it work I had to copy DTSRuntimeWrap.dll to v2.0.50727, surely any assembly which is been added to the GAC should be available as a referece?
Public Sub Main()
Dim cmgr As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.ConnectionManager = Dts.Connections("FTP Connection Manager")
Dim cn As Object = cmgr.AcquireConnection(Nothing)
Dim ftpConnection As IDTSFtpClientConnection90
ftpConnection = TryCast(cn, IDTSFtpClientConnection90)
ftpConnection.Connect()
Dim folders As String()
Dim files As String()
ftpConnection.GetListing(folders, files)
ftpConnection.Close()
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
Hi everyone,
When you've got -for example- a derived column task linked with a Flat file and then you change any field and come back to derived column task again you have select that field
with two possibilities:
1-€˜Leave as invalid column reference€™ /
2-€˜Delete invalid column reference€™
It€™s easy when just one is affected but when you have eight or ten is very tedious do the same one by one. Any way for to do same but selecting more than one?
Thanks for any input,
Hi All,
I'm pretty new with SSIS. I have written some custom component which will read from flat file and write it into database. Between those processes, there are other processes which will analyse and transform the data being transfered. Everytime, I remove a column from upstream component, I have to go through each component to fix up column reference mapping using Invalid Column References Editor. There are lots of clicking involves just to remove a column from upstream component. My package has about 15 components. I am just wondering, is there anyway for us to prevent that editor to pop up, instead fixing invalid column reference programatically in ReInitializeMetadata?
Thanks,
Will
Hi all,
Would anyone know of any references (online or books) that make it easier for experienced Oracle people to Learn SQL Server. The type of things I'd like to know for example are
The environment for SQL server on a PC (e.g. where the
datafiles are, what's the replacement for tnslistener - general architecture info)
Any significant differences that I'd need to know for creating tables and applications, like what do I use instead of varchar2 for example.
that should get me started.
tia,
Dave
I need to join 2 tables but the join needs to account for 2 seperate columns.
for example:
select
a. type
a. prod_code
a. prod_type
b. division
from table1 a
left join table2 b
on a. prod_code = b. prod_code
and a. prod_type = b. prod_type
The issue is that you may have only the prod_code or prod_type and null value for the other in table1.
Ideally I want it to check for both then if 1 isn't available then it draws the division of the available. having both or one or the other determines the division it falls under.
I have a database of 900+ tables with around 3000 SPs, and views. Manually I reviewed few tables and found that tables are not referenced with FK and I applied few. There are lots of tables and SPs using them in join statement, Is there any way with which I can get each tables missing references, any DMV or other manual script which tells about this?

Does anyone know of any good references (books or web sites) that provide examples of querying AD from SQL Server? I have the database link setup and have done two very simple queries against AD but I would like to see more in-depth examples.
Thanks.
Hello and thank you for the help in advance.
I know this has to be possible maybe I am just missing somthing.
I am creating a matrix report which will compare year by year quotes to orders The issue is quotes and orders each have their own dataset. I will be pivoting on JobType which is in both datasets and spelled the same. Is there a way to do this or will I have to figure out how to union the tables? If not possible why does it allow you to name the dataset in the expression?
Thanks, Leo
Is there any possibility to create a foreign key references more than one tables.
say for example,
Create table sample1(id int primary key)
Create table sample2(id int primary key)
Create table sample3(
id int primary key,
CONSTRAINT fk1 FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES sample1 (ID),CONSTRAINT fk1 FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES sample2 (ID))
this shows no error while creating, but in the data insertion it shows error..
I want to create a table withmember id(primary key for Students,faculty and staff [Tables])and now i want to create issues[Tables] with foreign key as member idbut in references i could not able to pass on reference as orcondition for students, faculty and staff.Thank You,Chirag
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi There,
Our company deals with financial education and typically has 9 different databases which have some cross referenced stored procedures. Every time we replicate Production database into TEST and DEV environments, we had to manually update the database references in Stored procedures. and it usually takes atleast a week and until then all the dev and test work has to wait.
Hence, I wanted to write a script, Here the code below.
-- These two variables must contain a valid database name.

FROM
SYSOBJECTS so
INNER JOIN SYSCOMMENTS sc
ON sc.Id = so.Id
WHERE
so.XType='P'
AND sc.Text LIKE @vchSearch
ORDER BY
so.name
-- Now, the table @tblSprocNames has the names of stored procedures to be updated.
-- And we have to Some HOW ?!! grab the stored proc definition and use REPLACE() to
-- update the database reference
-- Then, use cursors to loop through each stored proc and upate the reference
Now, I have got stuck how to extract the body of a stored procedure into a variable.
Please Help.... I dont want spend weeks of time in the future to do this work manually.
