I have created a SQL view of several tables, and need to add either a primary key or a constraint to this view. I need it for some full text indexing that will be performed on the view. How do I do it?
alter table tblV add constraint foreign key (T_ID) references tblT(T_ID) on delete set null on update cascade Error is: Major Error 0x80040E14, Minor Error 25501 There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 3,Token line offset = 1,Token in error = foreign ]
I'm new with SQL Mobile, so sorry for the novice question.
I have this problem. I want to add a new primary key to a table but i want the name of the contstraint to be generated by the system. I have this TSQL code.
ALTER TABLE TableTest ADD CONSTRAINT PRIMARY KEY (C1)
Reading the BOL, it says that if you don't supply a name for the constraint it generates one. But I get this error "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'PRIMARY'".
If I add a name to the constraint, it works fine. I'm using SQL Server 2000
Select MemberNbr, EligYear,EligMonth, count(*) FROM [MemberMonth] GROUP BY MemberNbr, EligYear,EligMonth HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
THIS WILL GIVE ME ZERO ROWS,,, That is GOOD which means NO DUPLICATES..I need to add a constraint to the table MEMBERMONTH to make sure no one can insert duplicate records.
I am trying to alter a table adding a column with foreignkey constraint. The table that holds the primary key in that relation has data, so i am not being able to execute the alter statement.
This is the error:
Server: Msg 547, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_MOPAeroportoICAO_IDMOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo'. The conflict occurred in database 'MOP', table 'MOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo', column 'IDMOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo'.
This is the script:
ALTER TABLE MOPAeroportoICAO ADD IDMOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo [int] DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [FK_MOPAeroportoICAO_IDMOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo] FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES MOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo (IDMOPAlimentacaoFerroviaTipo)
How can i turn of check when i add the foreign key ?
I cannot figure out how to add a default constraint to an existing column. The syntax I'm using is :
ALTER TABLE table_name WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT column_name DEFAULT (0)
This gives me a syntax error.
The column was originally added with a default constraint of 1 to a 2.6 million row table. I dropped the existing constraint and need to add the new default constraint of 0 for that column.
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[bkrm_lendcoll] ADD CONSTRAINT ReqdCovgAmt_constraint33 CHECK ( case when CovgAmt = 0 and ReqdCovgAmt = 0 then 1 when CovgAmt = 0 and ReqdCovgAmt = 1 then 1 when CovgAmt = 1 and ReqdCovgAmt = 0 then 1 when CovgAmt = 1 and ReqdCovgAmt = 1 then 0 end =1 )
This is my first attempt to add a constraint for business logic. The desired behavior is that the two columns together have the same behavior as a radio button. (one can be true, the other true, both can be false, but both cannot be true.) I get this error when I attempt to update it.
The ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with the CHECK constraint "ReqdCovgAmt_constraint33". The conflict occurred in database "Std", table "dbo.lendcoll".
So, basically my question is, when you have two bit columns and want them to have the truth table such as described, how can I set a Check constraint to enforce this?
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT TOP 1 1 FROM dbo.syscolumns WHERE id = OBJECT_ID(N'dbo.Employee) and name = 'DoNotCall') BEGIN ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Employee] ADD [DoNotCall] bit not null Constraint DoNot_Call_Default DEFAULT 0 IF ( @@ERROR <> 0 ) GOTO QuitWithRollback END
It just takes a LOT of time in SQL Server Management studio. I have to cancel the query and cancelling takes a whole lot time. I am using SQL Server 2008.
I want to create a check constraint on a table but the constraint values depend upon another table column as well, now one possible way is to create a function to check the column value. But I don’t want to use the function.
Can I do this in a view if so then how can I achieve this.
Hi All, I have created a table using VIEWS in SQL server 2005, now i want to be ablle to edit it in a datagrid but i cannot do so as i there is no primary key! now does anybody know how to set a primary key constraint so i can set one of the fields as a primary key to identify the row? many thanks
I'm some what of a noob when it comes to ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL Server 2005 Express editions, so please bare with me. I have created a basic database that is only one table. One of the fields is LogPicture with type of image. I just want to go into the table and manually place a picture in the table, but it seems like I can not get the format down. I have tried including the picture I want into the project, but no dice. I've also tried putting the physical pathname (on the harddrive) and the web address of this field in there. Suggestions please?
My Power view reports do not show the grand totals correctly. I think my issue relates perfectly to [URL]. However we have updated service pack 2 on both the sql data warehouse and the ssas box. They are 2012. However the power view is still incorrect. Pivot tables seem to work just fine. In AS I have a 2 separate measure groups that has a total count. I then use mdx to bring those two together. Something I have done many times in past with as 2008. My mdx looks like this below. I then hide Total Count EC (from measure group 1) and Total Count SF (from measure group 2). This way I have 1 total count value and they can use another dimension to see the two separate if needed.
The measure Total Count EC works just fine but the Total Count (MDX) does not . All in Power Pivot works fine but in Power View the grand totals are not correct.
Technically they should be able to view and modify jobs through Management Studio when being added only to SQLAgentOperatorRole. However they receive the following error when clicking on the Jobs folder regardless of the msdb role.
Our original two SQL 2005 servers do not produce this message, but all other instances do. All servers, but one, are SP2 so the service pack is not an issue. Any thoughts?
I am trying to create table with following SQL script:
Code Snippet
create table Projects( ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key, Name nvarchar (255) constraint NN_Prj_Name not null, Creator nvarchar (255), CreateDate datetime );
When I execute this script I get following error message:
Error source: SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider Error message: Named Constraint is not supported for this type of constraint. [ Constraint Name = NN_Prj_Name ]
I looked in the SQL Server Books Online and saw following:
CREATE TABLE (SQL Server Compact) ... < column_constraint > ::= [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ] { [ NULL | NOT NULL ] | [ PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE ] | REFERENCES ref_table [ ( ref_column ) ] [ ON DELETE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ] [ ON UPDATE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ]
As I understand according to documentation named constraints should be supported, however error message says opposite. I can rephrase SQL script by removing named constraint.
Code Snippet
create table Projects( ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key, Name nvarchar (255) not null, Creator nvarchar (255), CreateDate datetime ); This script executes correctly, however I want named constraints and this does not satisfy me.
How can I add "filler" months to a query? I have a view that has data for January but I want the report that is linked via a pivot table to show february-december with blank data. so the report has a full 12month view.
I hope this makes sense. any help would be greatly appreciated.
We are using SQL CE 3.5 on tablet PCs, that synchs with our host SQL 2005 Server using Microsoft Synchronization Services. On the tablets, when inserting a record, we get the following error: A duplicate value cannot be inserted into a unique index. [ Table name = refRegTitle,Constraint name = PK_refRegTitle But the only PK on this table is RegTitleID.
The table structure is: [RegTitleID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [RegTitleNumber] [int] NOT NULL, [RegTitleDescription] [varchar](200) NOT NULL, [FacilityTypeID] [int] NOT NULL, [Active] [bit] NOT NULL,
The problem occurs when a Title Number is inserted and a record with that number already exists. There is no unique constraint on Title Number. Has anyone else experienced this?
Is there any way or option to get the all columns of dataset added to table when we add a table in data region. It will take lot of time to add one by one and also there are chances to add one column ore than once.
I am looking to create a constraint on a table that allows multiplenulls but all non-nulls must be unique.I found the following scripthttp://www.windowsitpro.com/Files/0.../Listing_01.txtthat works fine, but the following lineCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idx1 ON v_multinulls(a)appears to use indexed views. I have run this on a version of SQLStandard edition and this line works fine. I was of the understandingthat you could only create indexed views on SQL Enterprise Edition?
Write a CREATE VIEW statement that defines a view named Invoice Basic that returns three columns: VendorName, InvoiceNumber, and InvoiceTotal. Then, write a SELECT statement that returns all of the columns in the view, sorted by VendorName, where the first letter of the vendor name is N, O, or P.
This is what I have so far,
CREATE VIEW InvoiceBasic AS SELECT VendorName, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceTotal From Vendors JOIN Invoices ON Vendors.VendorID = Invoices.VendorID
I created a query, which makes use of a temp table, and I need the results to be displayed in a View. Unfortunately, Views do not support temp tables, as far as I know, so I put my code in a stored procedure, with the hope I could call it from a View....
I compared view query plan with query plan if I run the same statementfrom view definition and get different results. View plan is moreexpensive and runs longer. View contains 4 inner joins, statisticsupdated for all tables. Any ideas?
What is the syntax for adding a column where you are adding a year to a date in a date format? For example adding a column displaying a year after the participation date in date format?
I had given one of our developers create view permissions, but he wants to also modify views that are not owned by him, they are owned by dbo.
I ran a profiler trace and determined that when he tries to modify a view using query designer in SQLem or right clicks in SQLem on the view and goes to properties, it is performing a ALTER VIEW. It does the same for dbo in a trace (an ALTER View). He gets a call failed and a permission error that he doesn't have create view permissions, object is owned by dbo, using both methods.
If it is doing an alter view how can I set permissions for that and why does it give a create view error when its really doing an alter view? Very confusing.
CREATE VIEW dbo.vwFeat AS SELECT dbo.Lk_Feat.Descr, dbo.Lk_Feat.Price, dbo.Lk_Feat.Code, dbo.SubFeat.SubNmbr FROM dbo.Lk_Feat INNER JOIN dbo.SubFeat ON dbo.Lk_Feat.Idf = dbo.SubFeat.Idt
When ever I open using SQL Entreprise manager to edit it by adding or removing a field i inserts Expr1,2.. and I don t want that. The result I get is:
SELECT dbo.Lk_Feat.Descr AS Expr1, dbo.Lk_Feat.Price AS Expr2, dbo.Lk_Feat.Code AS Expr3, dbo.SubFeat.SubNmbr AS Expr4 FROM dbo.Lk_Feat INNER JOIN dbo.SubFeat ON dbo.Lk_Feat.Idf = dbo.SubFeat.Idt
I don t want Entreprise manager to generate the Expr fields since I use the real fields in my application. Thanks for help
Hi, I am trying to figure out how to do this. For each row, only one out of two columns(id1,id2) should be populated. So if the id1 column is already populated and the application tries to fill in something for id2 then we just simply don't want to allow that and vice versa.
I am thinking triggers is the way to go. What do you think? thanks Rozina
using alter table syntax how can i insert the field TramingChoiceCd Extend the constraint on NetwkChannel table UQ__TetwkChannel__50FB042B to include TramingChoiceCd
Which is the preferred method Rule, Check Constraint or Trigger? I want to set a column to todays date when the column is = "T" else when "F" set it to a future date. Each time there is a insertion into the table.
I have a varchar field in a table.I want to restrict the entries in that field as "yes" or "no" nothing else.No record will be allowed for this field without yes or no.My question is is it possible without using any trigger for the table?I want to do it with the help of a constraint.
When I see desing table option in enterprise manager of a table I don't see any constraints, but when I extract ddl I can see all 6 of them. They are all unique constraints not the check constraints. Is this normal. I am new to SQL Server and would appreciate some explanation.
