Adding A Sequentially Numbered Column

Aug 4, 2006

Hey guys,

Was wondering if there was a way to add a new column to a table, and then use some type of INSERT statement to sequentially number the column from 1-end of the table without using an IDENTITY column.

For instance if I wanted to add a sequentially numbered column in a table with 50 rows that already had an IDENTITY column.

Thanks in advance.

Sueqntially Numbered Subsets

Mar 25, 2008

I have a table that is created based on a heirarch of set criteria and need to number the subsets within. The best way to illustrate what I want to accomplish is through an example.

Rank | Item_1 | Item_2 | Class
---- | ------ | ------ | ------
1 | 1A | 1B | ExactMatch
2 | 1A | 1C | Sub
3 | 1A | 1D | Sub
1 | 2B | 2F | ExactMatch
2 | 2B | 2G | Sub

Is there a way to accomplish this? Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I apologize for the formatting, but I think you should be able to get the point.

thanks,

How To Increment ID Sequentially?

Nov 21, 2006

I'm using SQL Server 2000 with MS Management Studio. I have a table that has 400 rows. I have setup the Primary key to increment automatically. How do I setup so that the next record starts at 4001 and up? Right now it starts at 1274, for example. So besides dropping the table and re-creating it, how do reset it so it counts from sequentially from the last row inserted?

Selecting A Specific Numbered Range Of Rows.

Jul 26, 2006

Hello all, thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give.

I'm familiar with the Top command but I need something else to help in a project I'm working on.

I would like to select rows 1 through 100000 from a specific table in one query then 100001 through 200000 in a second query and 200001 through 300000 in a third and so on until I have gone through all rows. There happens to be 424000 in the table I'm working on.

Any help is appreciated.

Sequentially Reading The Flat File

Jul 6, 2007



Hi,



How do i sequentially read the lines of the flat file that have different structures inside on how to parse it and store them in a table? Let's say, I have this excerpt from the file:



HA111Header1234

KLName1

KLName2

HA222Header4567

KLName3

KLName4



Below are the structures:

If Record type = 'HA' then

Length

Recordtype 2

Code 3

Description 10



else if Record type = 'KL' then



Length

Recordtype 2

Name 5

Code 3



The Code in the KL record type is actually the code in the 'HA' line. So to store the KLName1 in the relational table, it's value for the code field is 111. The same goes for KLName4 which has 222 code. So, when a record type 'HA' is encountered, it's like i want to save its value of the code in a variable and use that to populate the code field of the following recordtype 'KL'.



Can this be possible in Integration Services in which we will use the IS objects themselves to loop through the lines instead of creating a script (programming using script task... i think)?

Problem: DTS Parallel Tasks Running Sequentially

Aug 23, 2006

Hi

I have a SQL Server 2000 instance running on a Windows Server 2003 box with 4 processors. SQL Server is configured to use all 4 processors, and use all available processors for parallelism.

I have created a simple DTS package which has 2 "execute external process" tasks with no precedence constraints between them. There are no connections required or defined for the two tasks (sequential
processing is forced on tasks sharing connections). The DTS package
properties have the "limit the number of tasks to execute in parallel"
set to 4.

However, despite the above configuration, the two steps are never executed in parallel, but always sequentially.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why these tasks are not being executed in parallel?

Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

Best Way To Order Results Sequentially Starting From Somewhere In The Middle

Apr 19, 2007

I'm working with SQL Server 2005, and I'm trying to sort the results based on a user selected letter. Say the user selects 'D' to filter his results. I'd like to return the results starting from D followed by E, F, G...Z, A, B, C. What I'm getting is the results for the D entries at the top of the result set, followed by A, B, C, E...Z.

A solution comes to mind that would be very long and db intensive, by querying on 'like 'D', followed by like 'E', followed by like 'F', etc, but I'm sure that there is a much more efficient way to do this. Below is the code that I'm using now.





' where @SortString = 'd' and @Test is a temp Table



BEGIN

Insert into @Test

Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId

from vContacts where CompanyName like @SortString +'%'

Order by CompanyName



Insert into @Test

Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId

from vContacts where CompanyName not like @SortString +'%'

Order by CompanyName

END



Thanks in advance for your help

Adding Column To A Table Before An Existing Column

Mar 30, 2004

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?

Thanks.

Adding New Column

May 5, 2008

Hi,I have an application up and running. I need to add a new column to one of the tables which is currently being used - would adding a new column change or cause errors in the current application? e.g. if the table is being accessed by selecting * from table, will adding a new column cause an error? If there is any circumstance where an error would be caused by adding a new column, I will have to create an entirely new table. If I have to do this - how do I get a column in the new table to have the same values as a column in the old table? Can I create a computed column where column=oldcolumn? Thanks,Jon

Adding Column To Table

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?

Adding A Column To A Table

Feb 24, 2003

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.

Is there a design way I can go around this?

Adding A BIT Column - 100+ Hours!

Jul 7, 2004

I previously posted about a problem where I added a non-NULL DEFAULT 0 bit column to a table with 80 million records. It was taking a LONG time and we needed that database up fast. It ended up taking a total of 17 hours.

Now my coworker added the same non-NULL DEFAULT 0 bit column to another table on another important server. But this table has more like 400 million rows. It's been running for 100+ hours and is still going. We were hoping it would scale linearly (5*80 million records would hopefully take 5*17 hours) but that isn't happening. I have no idea how much longer it will take. I really need this to be done. I'm tempted to cancel but that will incur a potentially massive rollback, right? Any guestimate on how large that would be?

Any ideas?
