Adding Multi Records To An SQL Table
May 7, 2007
I'm trying to add records from a table in DBF format (created with Visual FoxPro) into an SQL table created with SQL Server 2005.
I first converted the dbf file into an ascii file and then in the Query Editor in the SQL Server I typed:
use [c:developesqlsqldatapsw.listener]
append from 'c:developesqldatalistener.txt' type sdf
goand then I pressed F5. I get an error that says:
Msg 911, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'c:developesqlsqldatapsw.listener'.No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name isentered correctly.
I checked in the directory c:developesqlsqldata and the filepsw.mdf is there and when I look in the psw database, the tablelistener is also there.
Could someone tell me what is going wrong? Also, how do Iappend the whole dbf table onto an SQL table. there's about6000 records.
Thanks.

In SQL Server 2000, I have a parent table with a cascade update to a child table. I want to add a record to the child table whenever I add a table to the parent table. Thanks

records
1,XXX,AAA,Date
2,ZZZ,BBB,Date
3,QQQ,BBB,Date
I group them with the following query
Select Source,Count(*) from table where date=month(getdate()) group by Type order by 2 desc
the result looks like that
AAA,1
BBB,2
------------
Also there are another table for this results (Totals)
fields
Type,Quantity
--------------

I am trying to exclude records from a table where the ID column is the same but the Mail code Column is multi-valued.For Example: (the table looks like....)
ID Mail_code
111111 XNT
111111 N11
111111 XNC
222222 XNC
222222 XNL
333333 XNC
So, if there is any ID that has a value of XNC, I want to exclude the ID all together from my output regardless of the other values.

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.

Hi there -
First of all I think of myself as a software developer and by no means a database expert. So I am posting a question here hoping that someone will lead me in the right direction.
I am somewhat following the database diagram from AdventureWorks with my own "normalized" database and have a question on how to update the table(s).
Here is my situation:
Table: Client
ClientID (PK)
Name
...
Table: Address
AddressID (PK)
AddressLine1
AddressLine2
City
...
Table: AddressType
AddressTypeID (PK)
Name
...
Table: ClientAddress
ClientID (PK1)
AddressID(PK2)
...
The tables should be referenced properly, etc... So my question is, when I add a new Client record, how and when do I update the Client table, Address table and ClientAddress table? If my PK on the Client and Address tables is an autoincriment, do I need it before I can update the ClientAddress table? If so, what do I have to look for, or how do I get the newly created ID to update the ClientAddress?
Is this making any sense? - I'm a little lost/confused. So if anyone can provide me links to where I can learn more about stuff like this and/or post some ideas/solutions, I would greatly appreciate it. Also, if I am not clear on my issue, please ask and I will see if I can clarify it more.
Your help is appreciated in advance!

Hello guys,
I hope someone can help me!
I have a (probably simple) problem with compact edition, I can't seem to add records using VB 6.0. Here's some sample code I've been testing with:
Dim pConn As ADODB.Connection
Dim pRS As ADODB.Recordset
Set pConn = New ADODB.Connection
Set pRS = New ADODB.Recordset
pConn.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.MOBILE.OLEDB.3.0;Data Source=C: est.sdf"
'pConn.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C: est.mdb"
pConn.Open
pConn.Execute "INSERT INTO tblActions ([Branch ID], [Computer ID], [User ID], [Program ID], [Type ID], ID, [Extra 1], [Extra 2]) " & _
"VALUES (1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 'some text', 'more text')"
' Open the recordset
pRS.Open "tblActions", pConn, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockOptimistic
pRS.AddNew
pRS![Branch ID] = 1
pRS![Computer ID] = 1
pRS![User ID] = 1
pRS![Program ID] = 1
pRS![Type ID] = 1
pRS![ID] = 1
pRS![Extra 1] = 1
pRS![Extra 2] = 1
pRS.Update
pRS.Close
pConn.Close
Set pRS = Nothing
Set pConn = Nothing
I can add the records using an SQL statement, but when I try to open the recordset and add a record using the AddNew method it fails with the message:
The command contained one or more errors. [,,,,,]
But, if I connect to an Access database (which uses exactly the same tables, etc.) using the commented out connection string in the above sample, the code works fine. What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks in advance!

Here's my dilema. I'm using VB.Net 2003 and SQL DB
I'm having a problen adding a record to a table in my SQL DB
My previous experience has been working with Access databases.
When I try to create an SQLDataAdapter using the wizard from the toolbox the wizard will only create the Select statement. it won't create the UPDATE, DELETE or INSERT statements. I'm not sure why, I even tried using the form wizard and it still wouldn't work...
My tables all have primary keys defined.
So I decided that I would try to create everything programatically.
What I need to know is how to create the INSERT statement and which statements to use to add the record to the table.
I know that when using the OLEDataAdapter with the Acces DB I would do something like the following code.
MyNewRow = MyDatSet.Tables("MyTable").NewRow
MyDataSet.Tables("MyTable").Rows.Add(MyNewRow)
MyDataAdapter.Update(MyDataSet, "MyTable")
I'm pretty sure that for an SQL DB it is different but I don't know how to do it.
Can anyone please help ????
I should also mention that all my textbox fields on my form are databound..
thanks

Ok, I'm really new at this, but I am looking for a way to automatically insert new records into tables. I have one primary table with a primary key id that is automatically generated on insert and 3 other tables that have foreign keys pointing to the primary key. Is there a way to automatically create new records in the foreign tables that will have the new id? Would this be a job for a trigger, stored procedure? I admit I haven't studied up on those yet--I am learning things as I need them. Thanks.

Table1 contains fields Groupid, UserName,Category, Dimension
Table2 contains fields Group, Name,Category, Dimension (Group and Name are not in Table1)
So basically I need to read the records in Table1 using Groupid and each time there is a Groupid then select records from Table2 where Table2.Category in (Select Catergory from Table1)
and Table2.Dimension in (Select Dimension from Table1)
In Table1 There might be 10 Groupid records all of which are different.

I am trying to write a query that will retrieve all students of a particular class and also any rows in HomeworkLogLine if they exist (but return null if there is no row). I thought this should be a relatively simple LEFT join but I've tried every possible combination of joins but it's not working.
SELECT
Student.StudentSurname + ', ' + Student.StudentForename AS Fullname,
HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineTimestamp,
HomeworkLog.HomeworkLogDescription,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineStudentID ORDER BY
[Code] ...
It's only returning two rows (the students where they have a row in the HomeworkLogLine table).

I'm trying to add a sum function to my query to sum the 12 records I get back in order to see if my total charges match the amounts within a different database table. Unfortunately, now when I run the query using the sum function, I am getting very large numbers back for the charge amt and I can't figure out why. Here is the query I've written:
IF OBJECT_ID('TEMPDB..#TMP1C') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #TMP1C
IF OBJECT_ID('TEMPDB..#TMP2C') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #TMP2C
select prin_sbb, sub_acct_no_sbb, res_name_sbb, ext_stat_sbb, cur_bal_sbb, VIP_FLG_SBB
INTO #TMP1C
from Vantage.dbo.SBB_BASE (NOLOCK)
where PRIN_SBB in (6000,7500)
[Code] .....
Not entirely sure what I am doing wrong, or why the numbers are coming back so high.

Hello
I am trying to add a website address to all the records in a database that match a certain criteria. The statement that I am using is shown below, but surprise surprise, it's not working! I'm new to SQL so any help would me much appreciated! Thanks.
declare @ComNum int
set @ComNum = (select max(communication_number)+1 from communications)
insert into "communications"
(contact_number, device, ex_directory, dialling_code, std_code, number, extension, notes, amended_by, amended_on, cli_number, communication_number)
values (NULL, 'WW', 'N', NULL, 'WW', 'W', NULL, 'www.abc.co.uk', 'Jon', 2007-11-29, NULL, @ComNum);
select name
from organisations
where name ='Abc Limited'
So, I have not included a VALUE for CONTACT_NUMBER as I wish to update all records with the website details as per the INSERT statement where the NAME column in the ORGANISATIONS table is 'Abc Limited'. I know something is wrong but I can't quite work out what!

Hey guys. I need a little help once again, here's the problem:
We are using an attendance system software that adds records in an Access 97 table whenever someone logs in or out of the room (Yes, it's old and I hate it, but it came with the hardware).
So we plan to create a program that lets admins check those login/logout data in an SQL Server 2005 database using a Visual Basic as the frontend.
Our only problem is, how do we transfer data from the Access 97 tables to our SQL tables *everytime* it gets updated? We don't need every detail the Access97 table has (it has IDNo, CardNo, Time, Location, plus other useless stuff). We just need to extract the IDNo(int) and Location(varchar) field(we'll just use getdate() for the Time since the update is done in realtime anyway).
So in a way, we are trying to find out a way to technically sync both tables, just like Database Mirroring style.
Any suggestions?

I'm using VS2008 (as shipped with SQL CE 3.5 as shipped).
I want to write a database app and started with a quite simple example:
One table "Master" has 2 columns: int MasterID, int Value (where the MasterID is the primary key and is an identity column.
For the GUI I used the typed dataset components (based on the namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe) which were automatically generated by VS2008. I just dropped the table from the datasources view to a form and got a DataGridview, a Navigator and some DB components, quite fine so far.
When i run the app i can add new rows and the identity column is filled with -1, -2 ... as expected. When I hit the save button, the rows are saved to DB, but the values of the identity columns are not updated (the still have -1, -2..)
When I use the exact same example with SQL Express evrything works fine: the identity Column's values are updated automatically and have +1, +2, ...
Sure there is a statement "SELECT @@IDENTITY"... but I'm just using automated code so far, and i expect that code to work (automatically). Next problem: if i want to insert that "Select @@identity" stuff (I don't want to do that, but perhaps I have to?) where can I do this, I did not found a OnInsertedRow-Event?
This problem is part of a bigger one: I want to use Master/Detail, but inserting the Details fails because the inserting of the master rows didn't return the correct Indentity values, so the detail rows cannot be inserted (the foreign keys -1, -2... will raise an error).
thanks in advance, Bernd.

When querying a bit field, I am encountering a problem with MS SQLServer returning a larger number of records for a table than theactual number of records that exist within that table.For example, my customer table has 1 million unique records, so theresults of the following query are as such:select count(customer_nbr) from customer = 1,000,000There is bit field in the customer table that denotes whether acustomer has placed an order with us called. That flag is calledorder_flagIf I run the following query:select count(customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1The result is 3,000,000 records.There is no logical way that this is possible, as my table onlycontains 1,000,000 unique records and the number of customers with anorder should be a subset of this.If a run the above query with a distinct before customer number, I getthe results I want:select count(distinct customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1600,000 records.So while I can get to the answer I want, I have no idea why I amreturning incorrect values if I don't select distinct.Can anyone help? I checked microsoft support and message boards buthaven't seen anything.I should note that the bit field is indexed.I am not sure if that isthe problem or not.

I have a a Group By query which is working fine aggregating records by city. Now I have a requirement to focus on one city and then group the other cities to 'Other'. Here is the query which works:
Select [City]= CASE WHEN [City] = 'St. Louis' THEN 'St. Louis' ELSE 'Other Missouri City' END, SUM([Cars]) AS 'Total Cars'
From [Output-MarketAnalysis]
Where [City] IN ('St. Louis','Kansas City','Columbia', 'Jefferson City','Joplin') AND [Status] = 'Active'
Group by [City]
Here is the result:
St. Louis 1000
Kansas City 800
Columbia 700
Jefferson City 650
Joplin 300
When I add this Case When statement to roll up the city information it changes the name of the city to 'Other Missouri City' however it does not aggregate all Cities with the value 'Other Missouri City':
Select [City]= CASE WHEN [City] = 'St. Louis' THEN 'St. Louis' ELSE 'Other Missouri City' END, SUM([Cars]) AS 'Total Cars'
From [Output-MarketAnalysis]
Where [City] IN ('St. Louis','Kansas City','Columbia', 'Jefferson City','Joplin') AND [Status] = 'Active'
Group by [City]
Here is the result:
St. Louis 1000
Other Missouri City 800
Other Missouri City 700
Other Missouri City 650
Other Missouri City 300
What I would like to see is a result like:
St. Louis 1000
Other Missouri City 2450

If I just use a simple select statement, I find that I have 8286 records within a specified date range.
If I use the select statement to pull records that were created from 5pm and later and then add it to another select statement with records created before 5pm, I get a different count: 7521 + 756 = 8277
Is there something I am doing incorrectly in the following sql?
DECLARE @startdate date = '03-06-2015'
DECLARE @enddate date = '10-31-2015'
DECLARE @afterTime time = '17:00'

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).

Hi all,
Hopefully I am posting this question in the correct forum. I am still learning about SQL 2005. Here is my issue. I have an access db that I archive weekly into and SQL server table. I have used the dst wizard to create an import job and initally that worked fine. field I have as the primary key in the access db cannot be the primary key in the sql table since I archive weekly and that primary key field will be imported several time over. I overcame this initally by not having a primary key in the sql table. This table is strictly for reference. However, now I need to setup a unique field for each of the records in the sql table. What I have done so far is create a recordID field in the sql table that is an int and set as yes to Identify (auotnumber). That worked great and created unique id for all existing records. The problem now is on the import. When I try to import the access table i am getting an error because of the extra field in the sql table, and the error is saying cannot import null value into this field. So... my final question is how can I import the access table into the sql table with one extra field which is the autonumber unique field? Thanks a bunch for any asistance.

I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code:
SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName,
People_tbl.LastName, People_tbl.[Parent ID]
FROM People_tbl RIGHT OUTER JOIN
Student_ind ON People_tbl.[Family ID] = Student_ind.[Family ID]
WHERE (People_tbl.LastName = @Enter_LastName) AND (People_tbl.FirstName = @Enter_FirstName)

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.

Being an access guy, I am having a hard time understanding why I can't do a join statement on an UPDATE?
What is the alternatives??
I have to match two tables up and use records from one to update the other and creating a view isn't working....

I want only one row for each contact that contains the most recent calendar as enddate and most recent history as ondate. I'm getting multiple rows for each matching contact.
--------------------------------------
select c1.contact ,ca.enddate ,ch.ondate
from ca
join c1 on ca.accountno = c1.accountno
join ch on ca.accountno = ch.accountno
where ca.ondate in (select max(ondate) from ca group by accountno)
------------------------------------------
