Appending Data To A Table But Not Duplicates
Jul 23, 2005
Hiya everyone,
I have two tables in SQL 2000. I would like to append the contents of
TableA to TableB.
Table A has around 1.1 Million Records.
Table B has around 1 Million Reocords.
Basically TableA has all of the data held in TableB plus 100,000
additional records. I would only like to import or append these new
additional records. I have a unique index already setup on Table B.
Any ideas pretty pretty please?
Paul.
Ps. (Have been messing around with DTS but get a unique violation error
- Which is kinda what I want I guess, but would like SQL to ignore the
error and only copy the new data - if only)

hi,
unfortunaly i have two tables where usernames are stored. in the one table the column is called 'remote_U' in the other 'remote_u' ... note the upper case
so want to generate listof all usernames and retrieve them in a single a column.
like
SELECT DISTINCT remote_U FROM table1 APPEND (SELECT DISTINCT remote_u FROM table 2)
i have tried joins and groups, but is not working. can i also do an alphabetical order after appending the second select? distinct is needed, 'cos one user may have more then one entry in the table, but may be also in both tables ....

Hi,
I'm new to SQL Server 2005 SSIS. I'm trying to do something very simple, but I cannot figure it out, PLEASE HELP!
I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.
Thank you,
Aldo

Hi i'm trying to append data from one table to another both with exactly the same table structure, using a SProc. The code i have used is
CREATE PROC sp_append_DB1_to_DB2
AS
INSERT INTO DB2.dbo.datatable1
SELECT *
FROM DB1.dbo.datatable1;
GO
i run this and get an error message-
Server: Msg 547, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_append_DB1_to_DB2, Line 5
It appears i'm having a problem copying into a foriegn key field, how do i get around this?

I have a question on appending and deleting entries in mysql table. This is my sample table.
table name: details
id_name | model | mode | media| first | end | id | level |
+--------------------+-------+---------+-----+-------+-------+--------+--------+
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 14684 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 14838 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15236 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15423 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | 1 | 1 | N | 14026 | 15627 | 6255 | q |
[Code] ....
I have numerous entries of same id name belonging to same median number.However,I want to only retain the entries having the longest first and end position and discard the remaining entries
E.g. for id name ="PSK_30s1207681L002" AND median = 5 we have four entries
id_name | model | mode | media| first | end | id | level |
+--------------------+-------+---------+-----+-------+-------+--------+--------+
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 14684 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 14838 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15236 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15423 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | 1 | 1 | N | 14026 | 15627 | 6255 | q |
But I want to retain only the one having longest first and end points ie
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15423 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | 1 | 1 | N | 14026 | 15627 | 6255 | q |
Here ,since for id name ="PSK_30s1207681L002" & median = N we have only 1 entry I want retain that one.
My final output in mysql table should look like this.
id_name | model | mode | media| first | last | id | level |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 14026 | 15423 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | 1 | 1 | N | 14026 | 15627 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 14033 | 15627 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1207681L002 | -1 | 1 | T0 | 15550 | 16050 | 6255 | q |
| PSK_30s1189731L001 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 999 | 7531 | 9808 | c |
| PSK_30s1189731L001 | -1 | 1 | 5 | 6609 | 8257 | 9808 | c |
[Code] ....
Is there anything that I could do to append it?

I am very new to SQL coming from a SAS background.
I work at a College where I am trying to create a table that basically stores application data so that I can record how many applications we had on a set day.
For example I want to run it say bi-weekly and create a date/time stamp for each row and then the next time it runs it appends to the original table but with the new date/time stamp.
I have managed to create the table and the date/time stamp but I'm not sure how to do the next stage.
This is not the best practice as the table will get "big" quite quickly (although we're only dealing in the hundreds in terms of rows). Ideally I'd have a more transactional database that only appends a record if there is a change i.e. the status of the application has changed from "Received" to "Interview" or similar.
I'm not sure how to copy and paste the code dynamically in this forum but this is what I have got so far (see below).
SELECT
CC.cc_name as Academy,
SUBSTRING(CC2.cc_reference,1,4) as Cost_Centre,
MD2.m_reference as Course,
MD2.m_name as Course_Name,
CAST(MD2.m_start AS DATE) as Start_Date,
[Code] ...

Hello,
I need help in generating a stored proc script (SQL Server 7.0)that will:
document the changes of each field in a dbase (SQL Server 7.0)
appending the deltas (changes) to the dbase on a different, say production server for each affected field
prompt the user (dba, developer, super user) for the fields to involve in the comparing and documenting of changes (deltas).
thanks in advance for your help!
ALSO: Does SQL Server 2000 handle this situation better than SQL Server 7.0

We have a need to report on historical data when none exists in the database.
Create a tabular report rdl that is run on a regular schedule. This report run is saved as an Excel sheet that overwrites the previous run, which has the same name.
Report is designed to use two data sources--the database and and the previously run Excel sheet. The data is "merged" using the Lookup function thereby creating a new report that includes the history needed.

Hello guys,
here is my issue.
I created a ssis package which exports the data from oledb source to flat file (csv format). For this i have OLEDB source and Flat File as destination. I generate the file and filename dynamically with the column names in the first row. So if the dynamically generated file name already exists , then i want to append the data in the same existing file. But I dont want to append the column names again. I just want to append the rows to the existing rows.
so lets say first time i generate a file called File1_3132008.csv.
Col1, Col2
1,2
3,4
After some days if my ssis package generates the same file name i.e. File1_3132008.csv, this time i just want to append the rows to the existing file. So the file should look like this-
Col1, Col21,23,45,67,8
But instead my file looks like this if i set Overwrite propery to false
Col1,Col2
1,2
3,4
Col1,Col2
5,6
7,8
Can anyone help me to get the file as shown in the highlighed
Any help would be appreciated .
Thanks

I have a table with 22 million Business records. I can see that there are duplicates when I group by BusinessName and Address and Phone. I'd like to place only the duplicates into a table, with a ranking, oldest business key gets a ranking of 1.
As a bonus I'd like each group to have a distinct group name (although not necessary, just want to know how to do this)
Later after I run more verifications to make sure these are not referenced elsewhere I'll delete everything with a matchRank > 1 out of the main Business table.
DROP TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness];
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness](
[Business_pk] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BusinessName] VARCHAR (200) NOT NULL,

Hi,
I have table which stores the fund name and its data. We get quarterly information from the fund co. Suppose if the user wants to add a fund thats not in our database we let then add a ClientFundId and a FundName. But may be after sometime the fund company may add that fund in the next quarter.. So how do i get rid of Duplicated Data..
In the ClientFundId column we can a 9 letter Aplhanumeric or a 5 letter character but if the fund co.. provides those values the 5 letter characters are stored in Ticker column and the 9 letter words are stored in Cusip column.. So i just wrote this query hoping i could retrieve the duplicate values but it didnt list any..but i found one this is my query..
Select
FundId,
Cusip,
Ticker,
ClientFundId,
FundName,
ShortName
From Fund
Where
ClientFundId = Ticker
or
ClientFundId = Cusip
Any help will appreciated

does someone have a querry to display the duplicate records in a table.
Table:
zipcode dma
My data upload is failing because there is a primary key on zipcode and the source data (42k records) has about 50 duplicate zipcode records in it. It is possible that there is a unique combo of zipcode / dma but I need to identify the duplicate records to determine that.

The database has Name,Email, and skill. Though the name is distinct it is repeated as it has different skills. I would like to remove duplicate names and add the corresponding skill to the only one row.
From the stored procedure, combining 3 tables I got the output as:
NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical
ArunemailidTech teamLeadership
ArunemailidTech teamDecision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical
BinayemailidMarketingDecision Making
I would like to remove the duplicate Name fields and combine the Skill in a single row as other fields are same.
So the output should be
NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical, Leadership, Decision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical,Decision Making

Im trying to look for duplicates in a table field.. field name is alphanumericCol and table is a user defined table...This is my trigger:
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[DUPLICATES]
ON [dbo].[AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl]
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @Alphanumericcol VARCHAR (750)
-- This trigger has been created to check that duplicate rows are not inserted into table.
-- Check if row exists
SELECT @Alphanumericcol
FROM Inserted i, AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl t
WHERE t.AlphaNumericCol = i.AlphaNumericCol
AND t.Client_Id = i.Client_Id
-- (@Alphanumericcol = 1)
-- Display Error and then Rollback transaction
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('This row already exists in the table', 16, 1)
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END
The result i get is, if i input a duplicate number it fills in a null in the field so my question is how do i get it to tell me its duplicate and let me insert a new one

I have a very large table that can contain up 3 to 5 duplicate records. Every month around 100,000 new records come in. Sometimes it's an ammended record, other times is just duplicated by error.
Is it possible to keep the latest record dumped into the table and delete the others? Does SQL track the order of the data being dropped into the table?
The layout would look like this. There are 10-15 other columns in the table where adjustments can also be made.

I have a table with call data (ContactID, Queues Entered, Call Status, Date & Time Stamps etc). Each entry relating to a contact ID goes onto a new row. The first row for a contact is the date and time it is created. It then captures the queue (or queues) it enters before it is answered. Finally, it captures when the call is released (Completed).
I'm trying to link all this data into one single row per contact ID to make it easier to report on.
I started off by using DISTINCT to pull back all of the Contact ID's. I then used a Left Join to pull back the date and time of creation. I created a further Left Join to pull back the first queue that it entered and so on.
When I did this, I started getting duplicates. This is because some calls enter more than one queue.
How can I do this so that it only has one ContactID per row. Also, for the Queue, is there anything I can do to ensure it pulls back the first Queue it enters? (These are time stamped). Subsequently, I would then need to add the second and third queue it enters in other columns. (A call can enter a maximum of 3 queues).

I need to copy data from 3 tables in one database into another db. The destination db already contains some data and it is expected that there will be duplicates which we do not want to have copied across (I think there is a constraint that prevents duplicate email addresses which is our main search field)
The three tables are effectively a user table, an address table, and a [phone] numbers table, each of which has an auto generated id field. The user table also maintains a reference to the address and numbers tables.
We are using SQL Server 8 (SP3) and it has been suggested that I use the data transformation service (DTS) tool which I have used numerous times to copy entire databases, but I can't figure this bit out.
I am still learning t-sql using SQL Query Analyzer, but have been doing so for a while and think that I'm fairly competent in it. My main question is this: Is it possible to connect to two DBs at the same time in SQL QA? If so, I'm pretty sure that I could work out how to pass the data across, I'd just need to know how to connect to them both.
Any help would be much appreciated. If you need any more information to help, please let me know.
Thanks,
Stephen

Please can you advise as to the best method to use

(i am not sure which forum to post this too)
Hi, I imported a table onto my host's server, table_Login which has username password, and userID. userID is Primary Key & identity.
When I had my code do insert of new user, I was getting error the Login.userID doesn't allow null values. Which shouldn't have mattered because userID is an identity.
After making a diagram from Enterprise Manager, I noticed that I have two Login tables (although only one shows in Enterprise Manager's "Table" node view. The second table, which had none of the constraints that my table of the same name which is listed under the "Table" node does; appears to be the table which is being written to by my code.
I can't find this table, Login(dbo), through Enterprise Manager, nor am i sure how to access it through Query Analyzer. Needless to say, I don't like this arrangement. and well tech support for this host seems to leave a lot to be desired.
Anyone know what needs to be done so that I can fix it or fight with tech support to convince them that they should?
