I want to add a computed field to an existing SQL table:
where Field1 is >0 and field2 is not null
set newfield = 'Y'
else set newfield = 'N'
I want to keep this existing table because I'm using it as the basis for an Access Report that is nearly complete.
BTW this table is the result of a DTS package that is comprised of several SQL executables so I need to be able to repeat this as part of a larger process.
Thanks!

I was asked to add an additional column to an existing query. I'm using Microsoft Query with a MS SQL 2000 server, and don't have much knowledge of SQL in general. Here's the existing query:
SELECT A.COMPANYCODE,
A.INVOICENUMBER,
A.LINENUMBER,
A.SONUMBER,
A.CUSTOMERCODE,
A.SHIPPERNUMBER,
A.INVOICEDATE,
A.ITEMCODE,
A.QUANTITYINVOICED,
A.UNITPRICE AS 'InvPrice',
A.QUANTITYINVOICED * A.UNITPRICE AS 'ExtInvPrice',
INVENTORY.UNITPRICE AS 'StdPrice',
INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST,
A.QUANTITYINVOICED * INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST AS 'ExtCost',
(A.QUANTITYINVOICED * A.UNITPRICE) - (A.QUANTITYINVOICED * INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST) AS 'GM$',
(INVENTORY.UNITPRICE - A.UNITPRICE) * -1 AS 'PriceListDiff'
FROM ABW.DBO.SALESANALYSISHISTORY A,
ABW.DBO.INVENTORY INVENTORY
WHERE INVENTORY.COMPANYCODE = A.COMPANYCODE
AND INVENTORY.ITEMCODE = A.ITEMCODE
AND ((A.COMPANYCODE = 'csp')
AND (A.QUANTITYINVOICED <>$ 0)
AND (A.INVOICEDATE BETWEEN '03/1/08' AND '03/31/08'))
ORDER BY A.INVOICEDATE,
A.ITEMCODE
They want a column added to the current query where if A.Unitprice is greater than or equal to Inventory.UnitPrice then populate the column with A.QuantityInvoiced*A.UnitPrice. I posted on another forum, and the advice I got was to add this:
SELECT NewColumn = CASE
WHEN A.Unitprice >= Inventory.UnitPrice THEN A.QuantityInvoiced * A.Unitprice
ELSE 'null'
END,
FROM ABW.DBO.SALESANALYSISHISTORY A,
ABW.DBO.INVENTORY INVENTORY
I'm not sure how to integrate it to the current query, so I've tried running it by itself, and I get the error: Didn't expect 'A' after the SELECT column list.
Any help would be greatly appreciated to modify the current query to display the new column.
Hi All,
I am having a server where replication is set up between 2 differnt databases. It is currently running. I want to add a couple of tables to the replication. I tried using sp_addArticle, but after executing it, in the properties of the publication it shows the new tables, but at the database level the tables are missing.
I tried with sp_addsubscription but I am getting strange error:
Server: Msg 14100, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addsubscription, Line 240
Specify all articles when subscribing to a publication using concurrent snapshot processing.
What can I do to publish the tables into the target database?
Thanks in advance.

how do i add columns to an existing table?
View 1 Replies View RelatedDear Friends,
what is best and quicker way to add 500 columns to existing table having 145 columns already.
Is there any way to avoid manual work of adding columns one by one in design mode or using script.
I have a TXT file (comma delimited) that contains all those columns names as a first row,but I am not sure if i can use DTS package to create table design having such sourcre TXT file.
Any advice?

Hello,
We currently have a 2 node Active/Passive 2 named instance SQL 2000 cluster. We will be chaning the configuration to Active/Active, basically moving 1 instance to the passive node (so we can take advantage of the resources on the passive node).
We would also like to add 3 nodes to the cluster making it a 5 node SQL cluster. What we are thinking of doing is basically making it an Active/Active/Active/Active with the 5th server being passive. The question I have is will I be able to add and install the 3 new nodes without having to redo the SQL cluster? Should I install the two new active nodes with the default SQL instace or do I have to install SQL with named instances? (actually I think the named instances is the way to go but then I wouldn't be posting here if I was sure about the answer).
Thx!

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.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
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.
Any ideas?
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
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.

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.

Now, SP1 is installed and when I run the setup tool to install ssrs, it warns me regarding a "version change", presumablly because my media is not sp1, but RTM. Any ideas?

I have a concern about adding a new field to a table with image field - which is huge.
Will there be a problem with some databases, where they have a hard time locating data correctly after such a large field?
Previously this happened to me, and what was advised to put all the big fields at the end of the table.
Thanks.
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...?
was just curious.

I have an existing publication in sql 2012 with 2 articles, and then I add 2 more articles. After that when I generate a snapshot, will the snapshot be generated for 2 new articles only or for all 4 articles?
I remember adding 1 new articles to one existing publication with 150 articles and when I generated snapshot, it was generated only for 1 article. But I don't remember clearly.
Does it behave differently for small and large number of articles?

I have a scenario where I need to add a blank column to a table that is a publisher. This table contains over 100 million records. What is the best way to add the column? In the past where I had to make an update, it breaks replication because the update would take forever as jobs are continuously updating the table so replication can't catch up.
If I alter a table and add a column, would this column automatically get picked up in replication?
Hello all,I'm using SS2K on W2k.I'v got a table say, humm, "Orders" with two fields in the PK:OrderDate and CustomerID. I would like to add an "ID" column whichwould be auto-increment (and would be the new PK). But, I would reallylike to have orders with the oldest OrderDate having the smallest IDnumber and, for a same OrderDate, I'd to have the smallest CustomerIDfirst. So my question is:How could I add an auto-increment column to a table and make it createits values in a particular order (sort by OrderDate then CustomerIDhere)?In the real situation, the table I want to modify has around 500krecords and the PK has 5 fields and I want to sort on three of them.Thanks for you helpYannick

Hello to everybody,
Installed the Integration Services to the existing Sqlserver 2005. But I am not seeing the 'Integration Services' in the
SQL Server Management Studio, like the 'SQL Server Agent' in the server. I am not sure what the next step is after installing the 'Integration Services'. Appreciate any help on this. Thanks for your time in advance.

Hello all,Can someone help me with this SQL?1) EMPLOYEE table has columns 'employee_id' and 'emp_sid' and othercolumns2) EMPLOYEE_BENEFITS table has a column called employee_entity, thiscolumn can be joined to either 'employee_id' OR 'emp_sid' but not bothin the EMPLOYEE table.3) EMPLOYEE_TRACK table has column called employee_track_entity, thiscolumn can be joined to the employee_benefits_id (PK) of theEMPLOYEE_BENEFITS table.I am listing the sql for the tables (the tables shows only the columnsin question)CREATE TABLE [dbo].[EMPLOYEE] ([employee_id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[empsid_id] [int] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[EMPLOYEE_BENEFITS] ([employee_benefits_id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[employee_entity] [int] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[EMPLOYEE_TRACK ] ([employee_track_id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[employee_track_entity] [int] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOSELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE eINNER JOINEMPLOYEE_BENEFITS eb ON (e.employee_id = eb.employee_entity ORe.empsid_id = eb.employee_entity)INNER JOINEMPLOYEE_TRACK et ON eb.employee_benefits_id = et.employee_track_entityThe above SQL I wrote is this: the second inner join uses a OR to joineither of the columns in the first table EMPLOYEE. There is performancedegradation with this SQL. With huge data It takes about 30 seconds toexecute. I know this is not the perfect way to do it, can anyone of theSQL Gurus please enlighten me to a faster approach?If I dont use the OR I can try left join on the same tableEMPLOYEE_BENEFITS twice by changing the join types, but If I did thiswhat table alias can I use to join to the 3rd table?SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE eLEFT JOINEMPLOYEE_BENEFITS eb1 ON e.employee_id = eb.employee_entityLEFT JOINEMPLOYEE_BENEFITS eb2 ON e.empsid_id = eb.employee_entityINNER JOINEMPLOYEE_TRACK et ON [???].employee_benefits_id =et.employee_track_entitythanksadi[Sorry I am posting this twice, on SQL Programming forum too]
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all,I have a problem and need some ideas.What I have done: I created a page to upload an excel file into a SQL Server table along with some customer info (from the login, day, etc.). This excel file contains several rows (some of them may be blank) and columns (also some may be blank). The file is stored in an image object.The file will be checked (they want to do it manually, because contents is a problem). If they say it is OK, I want to run a program to add a record into an existing table with the request no. (from the first table, where the object is stored) and all the information available from the filled rows (first row is header). I have a column, which can be checked, if the row contains data or not.Any ideas?I know how to read from and write the contents of the object to a field in the SQL table. Can I use this?Thanks for any idea / code / link.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am getting inconsistent results when BULK INSERTING data from a tab-delimited text file. As part of my testing, I run the same code on the same file again and again, and I get different results every time! I get this on SQL 2005 and SQL 2012 R2.
We have an application that imports data from a spreadsheet. The sheet contains section headers with account numbers and detail rows with transactions by date:
AAAA.1234 /* (account number)*/
1/1/2015 $150 First Transaction
1/3/2015 $24.233 Second Transaction
BBBB.5678
1/1/2015 $350 Third Transaction
1/3/2015 $24.233 Fourth Transaction
My Import program saves this spreadsheet at tab-delimited text, then I use BULK INSERT to bring the data into a generic table full of varchar(255) fields. There are about 90,000 rows in each day's data; after the BULK INSERT about half of them are removed for various reasons.
Next I add a RowID column to the table with the IDENTITY (1,1) property. This gives my raw data unique row numbers.
I then run a routine that converts and copies those records into another holding table that's a copy of the final destination table. That routine parses though the data, assigning the account number in the section header to each detail row. It ends up looking like this:
AAAA.1234 1/1/2015 $150 First Purchase
AAAA.1234 1/3/2015 $24.233 Second Purchase
BBBB.5678 1/1/2015 $350 Third Purchase
BBBB.5678 1/3/2015 $24.233 Fourth Purchase
My technique: I use a cursor to get the starting RowID for each Account Number: I then use the upper and lower RowIDs to do an INSERT into the final table. The query looks like this:
SELECT RowID, SUBSTRING(RowHeader, 6,4) + '.UBC1' AS AccountNumber
FROM GenericTable
WHERE RowHeader LIKE '____.____%'
Results look like this:
But every time I run the routine, I get different numbers!
Needless to say, my results are not accurate. I get inconsistent results EVERY TIME. Here is my code, with table, field and account names changed for business confidentiality.
TRUNCATE TABLE GenericImportTable;
ALTER TABLE GenericImportTable DROP COLUMN RowID;
BULK INSERT GenericImportTable FROM 'SERVERGeneralAppnameDataFile.2015.05.04.tab.txt'
WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = ' ', ROWTERMINATOR = '', FIRSTROW = 6)
ALTER TABLE GenericImportTable ADD RowID int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL
SELECT RowID, SUBSTRING(RowHeader, 6,4) + '.UBC1' AS AccountNumber
FROM GenericImportTable
WHERE RowHeader LIKE '____.____%'
