Any Solution For This??Please Give Some Suggestions
Dec 11, 2001
I have started working with MS SQL Server 2000 recently. I have a scenario in which I require to know within the given period of time ( say 5 mins) , which all tables from a particular database got modified. I do not want to write a trigger for each and every table for all the 13 databases , my application deals with. I have even tried the following query:
declare @curdate datetime
select @curdate=getdate()
select name, refdate from sysobjects
where xtype = 'U' and refdate =@curdate
But nope it does not help me, since refdate is something else. Can anybody tell me how can you figure out from sysobjects when was a particular object last accessed , even this would serve my purpose.
I have trying to get this done via profiler. My applications api's connect to the database under some credentials which i do not know since I do not have access to source code ( i am doing black box testing). So I can't even put a trace on one particular user account. What I am doing currently is trapping all store procedure events..., but then its too much of work...
Hence I wanted to know , is there any way out for the situation where given a database name and a time span we can find out the tables modified/accessed within that time span from that database ???
I need to disaplay number of Active Agencies on monthwise in one of my report. I have tbl_Agency table with ActiveDate and ActiveFlag. ActiveDate column contains always first Activation Date. If any chances in the agencies(update/delete) the same record will move to tbl_AgencyHistory table.
"If an agency is inactivated in September 10th, inactivated all of October, and then reactivated November 10th - the agency would be counted in September, not in October and counted in November"
ActiveDate column has always first activation date, I could not meet this requirement. This is very urgent issue, Could you please help me on this.
I have an OLTP database and alot of users that is querying against that.
I am thinking of a way to store a more denormalized version of some tables in another database, and use that for a search function that we have.
The problem is that the base tables are updated all the time with new and new data. And the search cannot have that long delay but a delay of 5-10 minutes for updates/insert is ok. deletes though cannot have any delay.
I was thinking of a SCD-setup and when a delete goes against the OLTP then we also run a delete against the SCD-database. But is it possible to create a SCD-database and have it update every 5-10 minutes?
I have also been thinking of a queue-table (and store updates/inserts) in the OLTP-database and then run a query every 5 min against the queue-table and update the denormalized version of the table. But isnt this a longer way? Why not update the denormalized version of the table directly when the OLAP-tables is updated?
I have also been thinking of to truncate and then fill the denormalized version every 5-10 minute from the OLTP-version. Maybe have two tables and after the fill is complete do a rename of the two tables, so that we wont lock the table that long while filling it up with the new data.
The denormalized version would contain around 200k rows.

VB.NET 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express - NOT saving updates to DB - SOLUTION!
-----------------------------------
The following article is bogus and confusing:
How to: Manage Local Data Files - Setting 'Copy to Output Directory' to 'Do not copy' http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms246989.aspx
You must manually copy the database file to the output directory AFTER setting 'Copy to Output Directory' to 'Do not copy'.
Do not copy
The file is never copied or overwritten by the project system. Because your application creates a dynamic connection string that points to the database file in the output directory, this setting only works for local database files when you manually copy the file yourself.
You must manually copy the database file to the output directory AFTER setting 'Copy to Output Directory' to 'Do not copy'.
-----------------------------------
The above article is bogus and confusing.
This is rediculous!
This is the most vague and convoluted bunch of nonsince I've ever come accross!
Getting caught out on this issue for the 10th time! And not being able to find an exact step-by-step solution.
--------------------------
I've tried it and it doesn't work for me.
Please don't try what the article eludes to as I'm still sorting out exactly what is supposed to be happening.
If you have a step-by-step procedure that can be reproduced this properly please PM me.
I would like to test its validity then update this exact post as a solution rather than just another dicussion thread.
Many thanks.
This is the exact procedure I have come up with:
NOTE 1: DO NOT allow VB.net to copy the database into its folders/directorys.
NOTE 2: DO NOT hand copy the database to a folder/directory in your project.
Yes, I know its hard not to do it because you want your project nice and tidy. I just simply could NOT get it to work. You should NOT have myData.mdf listed in the Solution Explorer. Ever.
Create a folder for your data following NOTE 2.
Copy your data to that folder. * mine was C:mydatamyData.mdf
Create a NEW project.
Remove any Data Connections. ( no matter what)
Save it.
Data | View Data Sources
Add New Data Source
select NEW CONNECTION ( No Matter what, do it!
Select the database. * again mine was C:mydatamyData.mdf
Answer NO to the question: Would you like to copy the file to your project and modify the connection? - NO ( no matter what - ANSWER NO ! - Absolutely NO ) Then select the tables you want in the DataSet. and Finish.
To Test ----------
From the Solution Explorer | click the table name drop down arrow | select details Now Drag the table name onto the form.
The form is then populated with a Navigation control and matching Labels with corresponding Textboxes for each field in the table.
Save it.
1) Run the app.
Add one database record to the database by pressing the Add(+) icon
Just add some quick junk data that you don't mind getting lost if it doesn't save.
YOU MUST CLICK THE SAVE ICON to save the data you just entered.
Now exit the application.
2) Run the app again.
And verify there is one record already there.
Now add a second database record to the database by pressing the Add (+) icon.
NOW add some quick junk data that you WILL intentionally loose.
*** DO NOT *** press the save icon.
Just Exit the app.
3) Again, Run the app.
Verify that the first record is still there.
Verify that the Second record is NOT there. Its NOT there because you didn't save the data before exiting the app.
Proving that YOU MUST CLICK THE SAVE ICON to save the data you just entered.
Also proving you must add your own code to catch the changes and ask the user to save the data before exitiing or moving to another record.
As a side note, since vb.net uses detached datasets, (a copy/snapshot of the dataset in memory and NOT directly linked to the database) the dataset will reflect all changes made when moving around the detached datasets. YOU MUT REMEMBER TO SUBMIT YOUR CHANGES TO THE DATABASE TO SAVE THEM. Otherwise, they will simply be discarded without notice.
Whewh!
I hope this saves me some time the next time I want to start a new database project.
Oh, and uh, for anyone else reading this post.
Thanks, Barry G. Sumpter

Now i know what im doing with the applicantID and ownerID...but the BZAcase# is a number/unique identifier that looks like this....2007-VU-000, 2007-VU-001, 2007-VU-003....so my question is 1. how do i get the last three numbers to increment each time a new application is created? 2. how do i retrieve the last record in the table??? 3. Do you have any other suggestions?? i have to have the number and what type of form they applied for in the "case#"???
Background: We are changing the way we pay commissions to our rep groups. We used to pay when the order was placed, now we want to pay when the invoice is paid.
Problem: The commision information is currently stored in the customer order, not in the invoice. These orders get deleted a couple weeks after the order was completed (shipped).
I want to create another, rather dynamic, table/structure that will store the order number and the commission percentage.
This info in this table should:
Be deleted: if the order has been deleted and the invoice either does not exist or was payed some period of time ago (maybe 6 months)
Be updated: if the customer order has been updated (i.e. the commission was changed)
Be inserted: if the order exists but the order number is not in the new table.

I have a database which contains more than 20000 stored procedureswhich were created withansi nulls off. This i found out using the querySELECT name,AnsiNullsOn FROM(SELECT name, OBJECTPROPERTY(id, 'ExecIsAnsiNullsOn') AS AnsiNullsOnFROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'P' ) A WHERE AnsiNullsOn=0Is there any way that i can set this property to 1 for all the storedprocedures i have??I know the alternate method is to drop the procedure and execute thescripts again with AnsiNullsOn = 1.Is there any other simple ways?? It will be very helpful for me..
Now I have lets say VISID 1 to 50. I'm using this SP to change the text on a button. Now I have 50 buttons. So I run this SP, then I run this in my vb.net code
Code Snippet Dim constr As New SqlConnection(PVDBConn) Try 'Variable to hold the results Dim results As String = String.Empty cmdUpd = New SqlCommand("SelVis1Name", constr) cmdUpd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure constr.Open() 'Set results to the value returned from ExecuteScalar() results = CType(cmdUpd.ExecuteScalar(), String) constr.Close() 'Set our buttons text to that value Button1.Text = results Catch ex As Exception MsgBox(ex.Message.ToString) End Try
At any time, when I start my program, I may need to label 10 buttons, or up to 50. Now I will have this number in a text file. Can I grab that number from a text file, and pass it into a SP?
And can I write this SP only once, to work for more than one label per time. Or do I have to write this sp 50 times?
I have a database that will be used by two or more organizations. I would like to use pass phrase encryption to encrypt a couple of columns.
I'm looking for suggestions on how I might set up the db to let the organization change the pass phrase that is used for their encryption?
I don't really want to hard code it into stored procedures or select statements with parameters. I will be using SSL if that should make a difference with what you suggest.
I have two stored procedures (l'll call them P1 & P2). P1, after a lot of processing, creates a temporary table that is used by P2 after an "exec P1" is done. I've separated the logic into two stored procedures because, ultimately, other sprocs will need the output of P1.
I get an error if I use #tempTable as the output table in P1 because it no longer exists after P1 finishes. ##tempTable works, but I'm concerned about concurrency issues. Any suggestions on what construct(s) I should be using?
Hi All, I am new to SQL Server but have been doing database programming since last 3 years. I recently attended MOC (Microsfot Official Curriculum) training on SQL Server and have started to use at my company. I am comfortable with SQL but want to dig deeper into T-SQL side. I searched on the Internet but not many good books available in that either they are ranked very low or are very old i.e. written around 1999/2000 or covers SQL Server 2000 as a whole. Can anybody suggest me any T-SQL book which was written recently and focuses purely or majorly on T-SQL?
Thanks to all for your time and advice in advance.
I'm looking for some help on how i should index this table.
current table has about 500k records in it. the fields in the table are: member_num (varchar(12), not null) first_name (varchar(20), null) last_name (varchar(20), null) ssn (varchar(50), null) address1 (nvarchar(200), null) address2 (nvarchar(200), null) city (nvarchar(200), null) state (nvarchar(200), null) zip (nvarchar(100), null) phone1 (nvarchar(50), null)
all of the fields are searchable through an asp.net webform.
my first stab at this consisted of creating a clustered index on member_num and then creating a separate index for each of the remaining fields.
What I have. I have a spreadsheet that is used in 4 or more locations on a daily basis by 1-3 ppl per locations. The spreadsheet is used to gather Quality Control information. So everyday there are a couple of spreadsheets from each system that is used to generate weekly and monthly reports. This is becoming to much work and I would like to automate the process.
What I have access to. I currently run a Sharepoint 2007 Server for all our collaboration and document needs. I also have the ability to setup any sql server.
What I want. I want the QC techs in each system to be able to upload the data at the end of each day and be done with it. This way they do not have email or do a weekly report. I would prefer to use Sharepoint and create reports weekly and monthly that can be pulled just by going to a site.
I'm knowledgeable in Sharepoint and Excel. I have some skills in VBA. I haven't dealt with SQL any, but willing to learn. Also I'm knowledgeable in Microsoft Access as well.
Any suggestions on how I could accomplish this would be appreciated.
Well, as a VB/VBA applications developer I'm not well prepared for this, but it looks like I will be riding herd on a production SQL Server.
TSQL I know well enough to get along, but where can I get a fast fix on all the logins, security, and process management info? Today we had a DTS package crash overnight and it took me forever to figure out that it had left half a dozen tables locked. (Note that the scripts for the DTS package are being re-written as we speak with use of transactions and NOLOCK.) Meanwhile tech support was handling a whole mess of grumpy users.
Are there any books you would recommend as resources/references? Is there a particular author who is good at writing the stuff you really need to know in English that can be read by a mere mortal like I? I am fond of the Microsoft resources/help files but I'd like to have somthing that holds highlighter and post-it flags a bit better. Not to mention something that focuses more on the beast as a whole rather than the minutia at length.
I have a set of tables with about the same structure
dataID, recordID, 15 other columns
dataID is unique but is never referenced in queries
recordID is one of the most referenced columns but only has a cardinality of about 30%
The current structure has a clustered PK on (dataID,recordID)
Someone suggested reversing the clustered PK to (recordID,dataID) because of the number of references to recordID but that didn't seem to boost performance any
After staring at this for a while I came up with something but I'd like some advice whether it makes sense or not.
create a non-clustered PK on dataID create a non-unique clustered index on recordID
Let me know if any other information is needed. Thanks
I would be teaching an applied database course to buisness majorundergrads. I'm looking for a book that introduces database conceptsusing SQLServer as the database. I would really appreciate if you couldrecommend me a few such books.ThanksNemo
I'm trying to count the number of records in 'game_dates' where thecolumns home_team_id or away_team_id have the same value. E.g., iwant to know the number of records for each team_id where team_id ishome_team_id or away_team_id.I'm doing this in two separate select statements now. Example:SELECT count(home_team_id),home_team_id FROM gamesWHERE league_id = 218 and ((home_score IS NOT NULL OR away_score ISNOT NULL) OR (home_score <> 0 OR away_score <> 0))GROUP BY home_team_idandSELECT count(away_team_id),away_team_id FROM gamesWHERE league_id = 218 and ((home_score IS NOT NULL OR away_score ISNOT NULL) OR (home_score <> 0 OR away_score <> 0))GROUP BY away_team_idand then combining the results. Is there anyway to combine these toqueries into one query? ...and have a single result set returned withtwo columns (count,team_id)?Thanks,Glenn
Need some suggestions for senior management for DR Purposes:
Background:
WSS/MOSS2007 is being used as a Document Management solution.
17 Servers geographically dispersed around the UK. Each server runs WSS 3, SQL Server 2005 and IIS. Each server is linked into a PiP cloud via 2MB MPLS.
At each location; We are looking at 20 core databases; each pre-sized to 10GB. If I take one site as an example, the previous nights backup totalled 135GB.
The company has taken a centralised view on backup's, so SQL Server Data and Log files are replicated using Double-Take to a central location where by the files are taken onto tape daily (Full backup of all files).
As a precaution, I take a Full SQL Server backup daily and also Tran Logs every 4 hours locally and keep it there for 2 days; however if the site goes boom I loose those, so for this purpose; please forget they exist.
As I expect; when I restore the mdf and ldf files from tape, I will get errors when I attach those files into SQL Server for transactional inconsistencies which I'm well aware of.
Other options I've considered are:
1) DB Mirroring. Not a bad option, but still have to get the DB to the Mirror Server in the first place. Also DB Mirroring is not recommended for more than 10 mirrored databases.
2) Log Shipping. Same issue as above; Have to get the data here in the first place. Then once Log Shipping is setup; if I have a failure; I need to start the whole lot off again.
3) Transactional Replication. Issue is with the initial replication getting the data from A to B, then if I need to use it in a DR situation; I will get issues saying this table is being used for replication. This can be worked around, but it's a not a quick process...
4) 3rd Party Backup Compression. E.G. Litespeed; Redgate SQL Backup, etc. Good; Tests have shown a 42% compression for us, however if I refer to the earlier example of 135GB, this compresses to 81GB. Throw in the theoretical max for a 2MB link of 19GB / 24 Hours, this would take 4 Days to copy.
Other thoughts I've come up with are:
A) Split the tables into different file groups; not sure how easy this would be as the DB's and Tables already exist.
B) Full/Diff/Tran. Still have the issue of scheduling the full backup over the weekend and taking 4 days to get here.
C) Local Tape Backups. Issue is relying on someone to change the tape on a daily basis. It's not centrally managed and how do we restore in a DR situation ?
Hi folks, I have a very typical database for an ASP.net application. There is a table which will contain a hierarchical data..much like files-folders structure of a file system. But we know that the table will be a giant one in production. There will be a huge collection of data need to persist in it. we are already facing some performance problem with some queries during the QA/test machine. Currently there is a table which is keeping all file and folder information and another table maintaing their hierarchy relation using two column namely, parentID and childID. My first question is, would it be better to keep this hierarchy relation into the same table rather using a different one? (much like managerID and empID in AdventureWorks sample?) My Second question, what is the best way to design this kind of structure to get the highest performance benifit?
All kind of thoughts will be appreciated much! thanks
To extract data from this table we are using a 4 table join to each of the factid's
Our where clause in this query is based on (where factid1 = something)
So we have a composite clustered index led by factid1.
Our plan is to reduce the size of this table by introducing the kind of schema, we would like to introduce this to keep the table size to a minimum and hopefully increase the performance of our extracts from this table.
factid4 int intersectid int value decimal 14,4
And then the intersect table with fact2,fact2,fact3 combinations
factid1 int factid2 int factid3 int intersectid
This kind of schema reduces the size of this table substantially but performance of our extract is very poor.
Does anyone have any suggestions on schemas that will give us high performance?
Or does anyone think that the original schema will outperform any alternative schema.
Greetings all, I'm a developer tasked with securing up a SQL Server 2005 SP2 database. I'm not exactly a DBA but I'm giving it my best shot. I was hoping someone could offer some suggestions/tips on how I could approach this task. The amount of documentation on this type of thing is somewhat overwhelming. I'm a little pressed for time and was hoping someone could offer some help. Maybe even provide some feedback as if I'm in the "weeds" or not.
Ok, here's the deal... At the moment I am using Windows authentication. From what I have read this is the preferred method over SQL authentication. I'd like to continue using this approach if possible.
The database can be has 3 principals 1. ASP.NET (Network Service on Windows Server 2003) 2. Windows Service running on the host server 3. A Data Access Layer assembly running on some other server
All the principals access the db using stored procedures only. Each uses a subset of all the stored procedures, some of them overlap.
My initial though was this: For the ASP.NET I would perform the following: 1. sp_grantlogin [NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE] 2. sp_grantdbaccess [NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE] 3. Grant Execute on [For each sproc used] to [NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE]
For The Windows Service and the Data Access Layer principal, I was thinking something like this: 1. Create a separate windows login for each principal 2. Create a db login for each principal login From Windows 3. Grant execute on each of the sprocs used for each role
Question: How do I Deny Select, Insert, Update and Delete privs for all tables regardless of the principal (public user)?
Again, any help and or suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thank!
I have a matrix with a dynamic number of columns (1-10). The trouble is that hiding one ore more columns still leaves space reserved for all 10 columns, which is ugly. This is because the size of the TextBox that oversees the columns is not dynamic, and it is set to the size of all 10 text boxes.
In other words, a matrix with 5 columns looks like this:
Item Total
Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Total
5 5 5 5 5 25
While a matrix with 2 columns (the last 3 have visibility set to false) looks like this:
Item Total
Col1 Col2 Total
5 5 25
I am going crazy trying to solve this one. Does anyone have any ideas at all that can help me? Merging all the columns into a single column would not work well for me, as each column is a drill-down for the others. And making each column small (.1in), doesn't work either because there is no "no-wrap" property.
ANY suggestions would be appreciated. How have others dealt with this issue?
Hi Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I have two tables First Table is called "Team" see columns and data below TeamId, TeamName, MemberId 1, White Team, 1 2, Grey Team, Null
Second Table is called "Members" see columns and data below MemberId, Name 1, Jim Smith
I want to display both tables in a gridview as follows TeamId, TeamName, MemberId, Name 1, White Team, 1, Jim Smith 2, White Team , Null, Null
I'm using the following sql procedure to do this
Select Team.TeamId, Team.TeamName, Team.MemberId, Meember.Name From Team Inner Join Members on Members.MemberId = Team.MemberId
My Problem is that this select statement returns the first row but not the second row. The reason for this is the second row's memberId is Null. However, I still need to display this row even if the data is some of the data is null. Can anyone point out the correct sql statement for this?
I work for a telco. We've got a table in a database which shows phone calls made by customers and when they made them.
I need to generate a list of customers who have made phonecalls last month and have NOT had a five days in a row without making any calls.
Can any of you help? I'm not sure how to tackle this one without getting a very bloated and inelligent solution. Basically, the only solution I can think of is generating 31 tables, one for each day and then just checking calls made on each day.
Does anybody have any suggestions to rewrite the 2nd WHEN part of the query??? Thank you.

So what I need to do is store applications info, such as application name, path, server it's installed on, etc., into a table.
I thinking of designing the table like this but not sure if this is a good design:
ApplicationInfo --------------- ID Application -- pk Path ServerName
There are apps that are installed on all servers and there are some apps installed only on a few servers. I was thinking of making the "Application" field unique so that only 1 instance of the application name exists and then comma delimit the "ServerName" field values.
So with this approach records would look like this:
Field Value ----------------------------------- ID "1" Application "Adobe" Path "C:Program FilesAdobe" Server "ServerA,ServerB,ServerC"
ID "2" Application "Microsoft Office" Path "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Office" Server "ServerB,ServerC"
I have been tasked with designing an automated process to restore production data to our testing environments on an as needed basis. The schedule would revolve around our software testing and deployment schedules. I'm looking for suggestions on best practices for this task in the form of advise / links to references / etc.. Instead of presenting all of my requirements here, I'll spare you that information :). Since part of it also needs to encompass data stored in Oracle (10g). I've done a several Google searches but would like to validate / invalidate my research against the advise of the experts here.
