Hi: Guys
Given the table below I want a select query that returns the AccountRepID with the largest single sale for each RegionID. In the event of a tie choose any single top AccountRepID to return.
my application will add and delete and update records in db my problem is when to update and delete .. I have two dropdownboxes one to retreive servers and one to retreive dbs in the server ... SqlDataAdapter daa = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM DB_tbl"+","+"Servers_tbl where Servers_tbl.Server_Name == '"+ DropDownList4.SelectedValue +"' ", sqlConnection1 );
this is the structure of each table >> servers_tbl : SRV_ID,Server_name DB_teb : DB_ID,SRV_ID,DB_name the dropdown box retreive just the names ... so what is the base of where part of the command hint : the DB_tbl does not have the server name but has the sever id
I have a stored procedure that receives a list of ids, to get the emails of each of those ids. The problem that I'm having is that I'm using a char data type that is max length is 8000, but the contact lists are getting bigger and soon they might reach the variable max length. The contact list that I receive will look something like this "1234,67523,67875,789687,", I'm using "," as a separator. Right now what I do is this @array_value = LEFT(@ContactList, @separator_position - 1)
The LEFT function doesn't work with data types text and ntext. But I'm in need of a string data type with a max length bigger than 8000. So I will apreciate if anyone knows of another function that does the same or similar and works with text data type, or any other ideas will be welcome.
I have a table which I would like to export to a series of insert statements (in a file maybe). Is this possible somehow?
Alternatively, I could use an existing xml document which contains table metadata (table name, column names,types etc) to transfer data from these particular columns to another database replica.
I'm creating a web application that has user input on 3 seperate pages. Each page prompts the user for specific information and at the bottom of the page the user will click on the "Submit" button to post the info from the form to the database table. Once the user has submitted the first page of information how do I retrieve the ID from the CustID column of that row so I can use the Update function to add additional info to that row when the user clicks on the submit button on page 2 & 3. I don't want to hold all the information in variables until the end in case they bail out of the form. TIA Steve

Some background: I have a SQL server 2000 server that I just restored from backup after complete OS reinstallation. I have retored all databases (except the master) and I still have the mdf and ldf file from before reinstallation (master.mdf as well).
Now my problem is that I have 1 application that use a specific SQL user with a password that the application choose itself and of course this application doesn't work anymore because I didn't restore the sql users (I use windows authentification as much as possible). I cannot do anything to the application to use another password but I know the login used.
My questions is "How to I recover the password?". Is there a way to log the password that this application send to sql or from the old master.mdf file?

I have developed a SSIS package on my local box and everything worked fine until I moved it to the production server. I have a Send Mail Task that is triggered by any of the other processes when they fail. It sends an email to the Admin with the current log file. My issue is that when it attempts to grab the log file (as an attachment) it fails with the following error message:
OnError,BILBO,UMIALIKJamesT,Email George,{a73bfc5c-d68e-426a-98ad-55e701670470},{677B8238-8697-454F-8F8A-DD6378E93455},4/1/2008 10:25:28 AM,4/1/2008 10:25:28 AM,-1073573429,0x,Either the file "D:SQL200590DTSPackagesPPROutputoutput.txt" does not exist or you do not have permissions to access the file.
It certainly exists and I've open all permissions up on the folder. What I find even more interesting is that the Package is just a single directory up from the Output file. The Package resides at D:SQL200590DTSPackagesPPR and is run via a batch file. It seems to me that it should have no issue grabbing this file and sending it, and when I don't attach the file it sends just fine.
Thank you in advance. If you need anymore information just let me know and I'll dig it up.
I want to allow administrators of the program to change the permissions of the database roles. Is there a way to retreive the the specific permissions granted an denyed to a user and a database role. For instance, a store procedure that you call, pass it the database role and you get whether SELECT is allowed on table1, or if UPDATE is denied on table2, etc.
Hi all, I've been struggling with this one for a while, but am still doing something wrong: I have three tables which need to be updated. I have a stored proc which accomplishes the first writes the data in for the first 2 tables. The last table is a one to many, so needs a seperate stored proc which will be called multiple times depending on the number of items in the order. My only question I am trying to get to here is: How do I get the first stored proc to return me the primary key value from the 1st insert (NOT the second)? I've tried a few different methods: the current one shown below returns me "2", as in the number of inserts performed. Dim InsertCmd As New SqlCommand("WriteOrder", oSQLConn) InsertCmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CartTotal", Session("CartTotal")) InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CARDFNAME", BillingInfo("CARDFNAME")) InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CARDLNAME", BillingInfo("CARDLNAME")) ... InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CONTACTEMAIL", BillingInfo("CONTACTEMAIL")) InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@COMPANYMATCH", 0) InsertCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@RECNUM", 0) Response.Write("---" & InsertCmd.ExecuteNonQuery().ToString() & "---")
I've also tried returning parameters like this, with no luck: InsertCmd.Parameters(32).SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Int InsertCmd.Parameters(32).Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue Response.Write("---" & InsertCmd.Parameters(32).Value() & "---")Any help is greatly appreciated!
I am using ASP.NET 3.5 with SQLDataSource, when a record is inserted is there a way to retreive the newly created GUID value in a field? I am currently using SELECT @NewID = SCOPE_IDENTITY() to retreive the newly created record unique ID field, but I need the secondary field GUID field's value instead in this case. Thank you.
Is there a way to retreive the SQL Statement with the values from the parameters merged together? I know how to retreive the SQL Select Statement and the parameters separately but I need to retreive the final SQL. For example: SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id = @id I would like to retreive from SQLDataSource SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id = 1
I use the following query to shred an xml and insert it into a table, but I want to have the whole html structure into the column to be able to present the formatted text in Cognos 8 BI.
WITH xmlnamespaces('http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2007-01-15T13:29:33' AS my) INSERT INTO TMP_ATGFORSLAG (AtgForslagDesc) SELECT AtgForslagRad.value('(/my:AtgForslagRad/my:AtgForslagDesc)[1]', 'varchar(2000)') AS AtgForslagDesc FROM dbo.DeklAtgForslagXml
The structure of the source in the xmlfile I want to import is: <my:AtgForslagDesc> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <ol> <li>Text1...</li> <li>Text2...</li> <li>Text3...</li> </ol> </html> </my:AtgForslagDesc>
How do I shred not only the text but the whole starting <html> to finishing </html> and insert it into a table I would be very happy.
Hi, i am using the DTC in my code to connect to two different servers on the network through a SQL query which is unfortunately very slow; can u please guide me with an alternative for the same

Hi everyone, I'm trying to come up with a replacement for @@IDENTITY, because I have SQL code I want to make more portable.
Original:ID = MyDataLayer.Execute("INSERT INTO X(a,b,c) VALUES(A,B,C); SELECT @@IDENTITY") Proposed solution: lock(MyDataLayer) ID = MyDataLayer.Execute("SELECT MAX(id)+1 FROM X") if(ID==null) ID=1 MyDataLayer.Execute("INSERT INTO X(id,a,b,c) VALUES(ID,A,B,C)") unlock(MyDataLayer) (This is of course pseudocode, for SQL Server I'd need SET IDENTITY_INSERT.)
Do you think the preceding solution is equivalent to the original? Do you know something better?
Equivalent should mean here, not necessarily generating the same ID's, but maintaining functionality and consistence all over the database.
is there a way to get around not using USE in a PROCEDURE?
I need to because I have a main site that inserts information into other DB's that i use for various subdomains. But without being able to use USE i cant select which database is needed.
My company develops software that is distributed to thousands of customers. We chose MSDE as the database engine. Over the past 4 months, we have spent countless hours with customers, Microsoft, Installshield and web searches trying to resolve issues with installing MSDE. The issues seem to vary by customer and most take a great deal of support time. We understood MSDE to be a product that requires little support but in hindsight, it appears that it requires a great deal of knowledge just to get installed. We make small steps but no leaps forward.
It has come time to evaluate other products. If there is a magic bullet, I would love to hear about it. In its absence, does anyone have success to share with other products?
Just curious, is there any alternative to SQLXMLBULKLOAD for shredding and loading very large (800 megs) XML files ? Due to the nature of the XML data sent to me (which I have no control over)I am having great difficulty loading data into tables. More specifically, I can load parent data but not the child data beneath it despite using sql:relationships.
