Adding Dataset Column Values To My Table At The End
Mar 14, 2006
Hi,
I am mapping an entity from SQL 2005 to another entity in another system on SQL 2000. Since the destination system has its own ID generator, I want to keep the generated ID for each row of my table in a column of my table in SQL 2005. The new column is in the dataset now , but I don't know how to update my table to have that column values (The OleDbDestination just insert new items.)
hi, i am having 2 columns in a table in a dataset. i want to add those two columns and bind the resultant total as a single column to the datagrid. is it possible. if yes, how o acheive this? please help me. thanks in advance. muppidi.
Hello, I have created SSIS package programmatically, I want to add Lookup transformation, How can I add column from reference dataset to the transformation? I have try to add new output column but it gives me an validation error, I write following coed to add new output column to lookup. IDTSOutputColumn90 outputColumn = this.lookup.OutputCollection[0].OutputColumnCollection.New(); outputColumn.Name = col.Name; outputColumn.Description = "Staging table output"; outputColumn.TruncationRowDisposition = DTSRowDisposition.RD_FailComponent; outputColumn.ErrorOrTruncationOperation = "Copy Column"; outputColumn.SetDataTypeProperties(col.DataType, col.Length, col.Precision, col.Scale, col.CodePage);
Please suggest other way to add column from reference dataset to transformation output.
I have a database running in an instance of SQL Server.
I set this up for merge publication and then set up a SQL Server Mobile Edition Subscription to that publication. After a few oversights I got everything working. The Mobile database replicated just fine. I went back verified all data was there. Can make queries to it.
PROBLEM:
I set up a new dataset to use tables from the SQL Server Mobile database. If I drag one of the tables to the dataset, VS 2005 simply stops responding. It is not using any processor. I click any place on the application and I get the Microsoft Visual Studio Delay Notification saying:
Microsoft Visual Studio is Busy.
Microsoft Visual Studio is waiting for an internal operation to complete. If you regularly encounter this delay during normal usage, please report this problem to Microsoft.
Well... It is more than just a delay. The environment is not using any processor its just sitting here. And I left it running for 2.5 hours... so now this is becoming a big source of pain for me because I need to get that dataset working to finish my business logic. The only option I have is to Kill the process.
Hopefully someone out there can help.
Additional Services running:
IIS (Whatever version comes with Windows XP Pro. I think 5.1)
SQL Server Agent, SQL Server Integration Services, SQL Server Broswer and SQL Server FullTextSearch
UPDATE: I am editing this post with an update.
I noticed that my other tables get added to the dataset just fine. It is when I add one particular table that the entire visual studio simply stops and starts giving the delay notification. I have no idea why this happens... nor do I see any noticeable difference between this table and the rest of them. I went back and made sure that all columns types where directly supported by SQL Mobile Edition and they are.
I posed this problem a few days ago, but havent been able to generate the results i need. Suppose my resultset from an sql query gathering totalsales for a given day by a salesrep looks like this:Lastname totalsales orderID-----------------------doe 1403 510doe 500 680 doe 200 701using SUM(Accounts.totalsales) is not adding up the totalsales. What do I need to do to add up the totalsales, and then reassign it to a newfield?netsports
In my report, I need to display column names (and its values) from my dataset, which uses the stored procedure and within it use the PIVOT statement. I cannot use the matrix control in report since I need to add another static column to the right of the matrix, but since that cannot be done ni SQL SSRS 2005, I need to PIVOT it through stored procedure. The parameter passed to stored procedure is the year and it is used for pivot. The statement looks like this:
@sql = 'SELECT * FROM (SELECT YearId, SchoolId, ReportText, OutputValue_Text from AggregateTable) AS AGAM PIVOT (MIN(OutputValue_Text) FOR YearId IN ([' + @YearId + '])) PVT'
EXEC(@sql)
So, since the years passed as parameters can change, I cannot hard-code it as column in my report, so I need to programatically display column names and values from my dataset, something like dataSet.Tables[0].Columns[].ColumnName; I have tried with writing the code, but I do not have much experience with it and I have not been very successful. Can someone help me with the code?
Whats the fastest easiest way to take a select that returns say 4 values for the expression into a single column on defined row
basically I mean i want to do an update to say a persons i dunno ummm places they have traveled and I want it listed like france;usa;germany etc etc and the data would always be in the tables i pull from so I can overwrite the data each time i run it but has to take 3 or more values from a query and put them in separated by say a ; into the same persons coloumn that stores the info.
I did this once before with a cursor and adding a variable to itself with colasce or whatever the command was, but was just wondering if there is a fast way to do this by chance that im not thinking about :P.
I have an SQL Select statement that I need to add a column to called SalePrice, the SalePrice column needs to be calculated by adding together the values of 12 columns, then multiplying that value by the value in a another column to calculate margin. My issue is that I can only get it to add 7 column values together, if I add any more columns to the equation it just returns and null result. My DB is SQL 2005 Express SP2.

HiI've got a quandry - I have a detailed database that handles advertorders between a design agency and printers / magazines etc.I want to add up the total spent by the client and put the results to afield.I've actually done that using a query table in access - it should bequite simple as i can bind the 'total amount' to my table - the onlything it does not currently do is filter the total based on the monthselected.For example if you look athttp://www.daneverton.com/dg2data/months/2006-12.aspThe data here is filtered by the issue equaling Dec-2006The actual order total is £13,622 but the column is showing the totalfor all entries to date (a years worth = £ 422,048)I'm sure that there is only a basic tweak required but i'm banging myhead over what to doThe sql is "SELECT * FROM monnodraught, q_monodraught_total WHERE[Issue / Edition] LIKE ? ORDER BY Publication ASC"Any help gladly received.
This is probably the wrong category to post my question in. Apologies if it is.
I have got a Data Flow Task that has an OLE DB Source and a Flat file destination.
Is there a way to do the following:
SELECT id,'31809','C:LCImportDataImages' & id & '.jpg', '1' FROM table1
This obviously doesn't work but I want to insert the id from the table, followed by the value '31809', followed by 'C:LCImportDataImagesid.jpg', followed by '1'
So, the id in 'C:LCImportDataImagesid.jpg' is the same as the id from the table.
I simply need the ability using SQL to add columns in an existing table before (or after) columns that already exist.
The MS SQL implementation of ALTER TABLE doesn't seem to provide the before or after placement criteria I require. How is this done in MS SQL using SQL or is there a stored procedure I can use?
If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1]  and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION; SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE; SET XACT_ABORT ON; CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] ( [MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
I have a table size 2078mb, number of row +530,900. Is it normal for sql to lock users out of the db when I add a column to the end of the table? I'm running SQL 7.0. The table has 4 col regular indexes. No primary keys. It locked the user out for about 10 min. I thought with SQL 7.0 this problem went away?
Can I add a column to a database table without dropping and recreating the table?
The problem is that everytime a user creates an action that requires a new table - at the moment I drop the table and recreate the table with the new column.
This requires lots of resources as I have to populate the table again.
does anyone know if there is a way, or perhaps a custom toolbox control that is already developed that allows you to drag an entire dataset into a table, instead of pulling everything in field by field...?
I've got a table with 36+ million rows. I've been asked to modify thetable and add in an identity column. The code I used caused SQL tolock up and it maxed out the log files. :)The code I used is:Begin TransactionAlter Table ODS_DAILY_SALES_POSADD ODS_DAILY_SALES_POS_ID BigInt NOT NULL IDENTITY (1,1)CommitIs there a way to break up the code? Maybe only do a few millionrecords at a time? Or is there a way to do this without lockinganything up?Thanks,Jennifer
I have the following tablestblGroupsGroupID intGroupName nvarchar(50)tblGroupMembersGroupID int (FK)UserID intI need a stored proc which:returns the groupID and name of all the groups of which userid 5 is a member AND also return the number of members that a group has (so the numbers of records in tblGroupMembers with a specific groupID)I have 2 sp's:myspGetGroupMembersCount which takes as input a groupID and has as output an integer valuemyspGetGroupsforUser which must return the entire resultsetSo say that userID 5 is a member of GroupID 6,18 and 22the following must be the resultset:UserID GroupID GroupName Members5 6 bla 132 5 18 yes 17 5 22 whatever 200 I think I need to call myspGetGroupMembersCount from within myspGetGroupsforUser and add it to the resultset (I dont want to work with a temptable)...but I dont know how...
I have the folowing databases DB1,DB2,DB3,D4,DB5........ I have to loop through each of the databases and find out if the database has a tablename with the word 'Documents'( like 'tbdocuments' or 'tbemployeedocuments' and so on......) If the tablename having the word 'Documents' is found in that database i have to add a column named 'IsValid varchar(100)' against that table in that database and there can be more than 1 'Documents' table in a database. can someone show me the script to do it? Thanks.
I have an existing table which has about 70 columns with 3 million rows in it. I was asked to add additional 50 new columns into the table. I have tried to add them in through the Enterprise manager design table but experiencing some problems. The adding process seemed never going to be end. Is there any good efficient way to do it??? I appreciate the help!
Sorry I'm pretty new to SQL so I don't know if this is a simple question. I have a table, and I am trying to add a column to the table and populate this column using what would be called an 'IF' function in Excel.
Basically 'column A' has numbers in it. I want SQL to look at 'column A' and if the first 5 digits of the number in 'column A' are 00001, then put 'description A' into new column 'column B'. If the first 5 digits of the number in 'column A' are 00002, then put 'description B' into 'column A' etc.
I want to add new primary key into existing table which already has a primary key. But,I do not want to remove the old primary key, since there are many records and the old primary key also have relationship with other table
When I am using this query:
alter table hem154 add indexNO uniqueidentifier default newid()
alter table hem154 add CONSTRAINT pk_hem154_indexNo PRIMARY KEY (PK_indexNO) go
Note: Hem154 ~ Table name indexNo ~ Column Name
I get this runtime error:
Msg 1779, Level 16, State 0, Line 1 Table 'hem154' already has a primary key defined on it. Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
The column I'm adding needs to be part of the clustered PK (it will be the last of three columns) so I need to recreate all the indexes.
My DB is set for FULL recovery mode ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON. I've tried two methods so far.
Method 1:
BEGIN TRANSACTION CREATE TABLE dbo.Tmp_copyoftablewithnewfield ( ) ON PRIMARY IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM dbo.originaltable) EXEC('INSERT INTO dbo.Tmp_copyoftablewithnewfield (<original fields>) SELECT <original fields> FROM dbo.originaltable WITH (HOLDLOCK TABLOCKX)') GO DROP TABLE dbo.originaltable GO EXECUTE sp_rename N'dbo.Tmp_copyoftablewithnewfield', N'originaltable', 'OBJECT' GO <recreate PK constraint> <rebuild indexes> COMMIT
Pro's: Lets me add the new field in the spot I'd like it (not a big deal) Con's: Tons of wasted space and time. It took about 15 hours.
Method 2: SET XACT_ABORT ON GO SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE GO BEGIN TRANSACTION <drop PK constraint> <drop indexes>
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[originaltable] ADD [newfield] [tinyint] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_originaltable_newfield] DEFAULT ((1))
Pro's: No making a copy of the entire table taking up 200GB more space in the db data file Con's: My tempdb grew to accomodate the row versioning info for every row in the 200GB table. It took over 30 hours.
A lot of time and disk space is wasted with both.
Since the db is going to be unavailable to users I have some flexibility here. I was considering turning ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION OFF and then trying method 2 again which should stop the versioning in tempdb and then turning it back on.
I was also curious if setting the database recovery mode to SIMPLE would cut down on db log usage and then I could set it back to FULL when done.
Do these really need to be in a transaction? If there's some hardware failure or something unexpected I can just restore from backup and do the conversion again. If the presence of the transaction itself is causing more disk usage for logging or any other slowdown, I think I'd rather do without.
Given the amount of time this conversion takes, I wanted to get some feedback other than "just try it" before doing any new tests.
I'm merge replicating a SQL Server 2005 database (publisher) to SQL Compact databases (subscribers) on mobile devices. I understood that I could add a "not null" column to a replicated table on the server as long as I specified a default value, but it seems this is not possible. I ran the following script on the server database:
ALTER TABLE Activity ADD ActivityRequiresProject bit not null default(0)
which executed OK. When I went to synchronize the db on the mobile device I got the following error:
Alter table only allows columns to be added which can contain null values. The column cannot be added to the table because it does not allow null values. The SQL statement failed to execute. If this occurred while using merge replication, this is an internal error. If this occurred while using RDA, then the SQL statement is invalid either on the PULL statement or on the SubmitSQL statement. [ SQL statement = alter table "Activity" add "ActivityRequiresProject" bit not NULL constraint "DF__Activity__Activi__4A47DDAE" default ( ( 0 ) ) ]
Does anyone know if this is a valid error? Is is possible to add a not null column with default, and if not how do I update the schema on a replicated database?
I removed all constraints in order to load a bunch of data into a table, now I'm wondering if I can add an identity column to this table which does contain data or if I have to create a new table with the identity column and insert the data into that.
D2 is a list of data. each row in D2 has a classid. D2 may or may not have all the classids in D1. all classids in D2 must be in D1.
I want to show fields in D2 and group the data with classids in D1 and show every group as a seperate table. If no data in D2 is available for a classid, It shows a empty table.
I'm new to replication and am trying to determine the best approach to add a column (NOT NULL with no DEFAULT) to a replicated table. The only success I have had is if I do the following:
Delete entire Subscription Delete entire Publication Add column to table Create new Publication Create new Subscription Run SnapShot
The problem with this approach is that each step affects the entire database and not just the modified table. I think it is inefficient to redo replication for a simple object change. What am I missing? Is there a way to only replicate the changes made to the one table without having to run a SnapShot for the entire publication? Keep in mind the column must be defined as NOT NULL and cannot have a Default.
