BCP Into An Indentity Field

Jun 15, 2000

Hi folks!

I need to populate a table having an identity field with data (basically I want to make a copy of a table with identity column on another server). When I use BCP to insert data then the values in the identity field is not the same as in the data file but gets incremented from the original.

eg. if the records in the flat file are-
1, 'test1'
2, 'test2'

Now if i insert this into the table (say the last identity value was 100) then rows get inserted as-
101, 'test1'
102, 'test2'

Is there any way by which I can retain the values of the identity column to be same as in the file?

Thanks!

Indentity Column

Feb 24, 2000

when I use the code

SET IDENTITY_INSERT tss_Cable ON
go
DECLARE @@nextidentval int
SELECT @@nextidentval = MIN(IDENTITYCOL) + IDENT_INCR(tss_Cable)
FROM tss_Cable t1
WHERE IDENTITYCOL BETWEEN IDENT_SEED(tss_Cable) AND 2147483646
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM tss_Cable t2
WHERE t2.IDENTITYCOL = t1.IDENTITYCOL IDENT_INCR(tss_Cable))
go
SET IDENTITY_INSERT tss_Cable OFF

I get the following error.

error line 2 Incorrect syntax near IDENT_INCR.
error line 6 incorrent syntax near IDENT_INCR.

I would like to reset the identity without droping the table. I'm using
sql 6.5. I looked at Mark Lessard 12/17/99 respose on this issue and changed
the code to match his version but the same error occured.

Indentity Insert

Jul 20, 2005

I'm doing a data transfer from Access to SQL Server, I wish to keep theidentity column (autonumber) values as all the data is already related. Itried the first table append query including the identity column, it worked.Was this fluke? Will it always work? I was under the impression that I wouldhave to issue a "set identity_insert on" before doing this. The SQL databasewill have absolutely no data before the transfer routines are run.

Regarding SELECT @@INDENTITY

Apr 25, 2008

IDE: Visual Studio 2008
DB: SSCE 3.5
OS: WinXP SP2 (CHS)
.....



Code Snippet
String str_sql_insert = "INSERT INTO Person (Name, ShortName, Description, Tag) VALUES ('" + this.TextBox.Text.Trim() + "', '" + this.ShortNameTextBox.Text.Trim() + "', '" + this.DescriptionTextBox.Text.Trim() + "','" + this.TagComboBox.SelectedValue.ToString().Trim() + "); SELECT @@INDENTITY";

SqlCeConnection tempConn = dbman.getConn();
SqlCeCommand tempComm = new SqlCeCommand(str_sql_insert, tempConn);
tempConn.Open();
Object ob = tempComm.ExecuteScalar();

.....

When I run the application there is a error report on the last line of the code above:
[ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 127,Token in error = SELECT ]

When I copy the SQL string into the QueryBuilder in the VS2008 it is works and returned a correct value.

I want to know is there something wrong with the sql string or the ExecuteScalar() cant execute 2 steps command?

thanks

Using The Indentity Column

Feb 22, 2008


As an example I have three tables

Table1
ChildName (nvarchar)30
ChildID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™

Table2
ParentName(nvarchar)30
ParentID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™

Table3
ChildID (INT)
ParentID (INT)

I have the following code.

Dim dbcnn As SqlClient.SqlConnection = New SqlClient.SqlConnection(dbsettings.getDatabaseString)

Dim dbcmd As SqlClient.SqlCommand
dbcmd_AddDriverRoute = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("usp_Insert", dbcnn)
dbcmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

dbcmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ChildID ", cmb_child.SelectedItem)

dbcmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ParentID ", "@@IDENTITY")

dbcnn.Open()
dbcmd.ExecuteScalar()
dbcnn.Close()



basically what I want to do is when a child is added I want to be able to insert ParentID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™ value into table3 ParentID (INT) .

I have my sql statement in place I am not sure how to take an identity value stored in the db.

Stored Prcedure And @@indentity

Jul 12, 2005

I'm trying something new, and have hit a snag.

basically, I'm attempting to use two INSERT commands in a single SP. I want to use the PK from the new entry and apply that to the second.

here's the code;

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::
CREATE PROCEDURE spInsertNewUser
@fn varchar(50),
@ln varchar(50),
@add varchar(50),

INSERT INTO tblUserToCountySubscribedLKP (
UserID, CountyID
) VALUES(

)
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::

I'm sure the problem is largely due to the fact that I am close to completely clueless on such things, but a bit of timely advice from the sage sql wizards here would be most welcome and greatly appreciated.

Is It Possible That DTS Skipped Indentity Attribut

Sep 11, 2006

I imported a table using DTS.
I run SQL statements in my original server database. It works well.
But when I run the same instructions within a stored procedure in my new workstation where I improrted the table I get this error:
Server: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure InsertFichierPrix, Line 11
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Id', table 'myDBLive.dbo.FichierPrix'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.

Here is the SQL statements that I run on the original Database:

insert into fichierprix(nomfichier, version, descriptionfr, typeclient,....) values(@NomFichier,'Actuelle', @NomFourFr, 'MembreAcheteur', ....)


And here is my SP that I run on the new imported database:

CREATE PROCEDURE InsertFichierPrix @NomFichier varchar(50), @NomFr varchar(50),@NomAn varchar(50)
AS

declare @NomFourFr varchar(50)
declare @NomFourAn varchar(50)

SET @NomFourFr='liste fournisseur ' + @NomFr
set @NomFourAn='liste fournisseur ' + @NomAn

insert into fichierprix(nomfichier, version, descriptionfr, typeclient,...) values(@NomFichier,'Actuelle', @NomFourFr, 'MembreAcheteur'...)

GO

And here is the execution of my Stored proc on the destination database:

execute insertfichierprix @NomFichier='myfilename2', @NomFr='fournifr1',@NomAn='Fourniang1'


Thank you for helping me.

Ordering Of Newly Added Indentity Value ?

Aug 1, 2007

Hi There

Can anyone tell me how an identity column decides what number to give which row.

I always thought that it was in order of the clustered index.

But i have found the following:

If you have Table A with a clustered index(not unique) say on the first 3 columns.

If the table is empty and you add an identity column, then afterward load it with data the value of the identity column seems to match the clustered index.

But if the table has no identity column and it is filled with data, and then you add an identity column the number for the identity column seems to be all over the place.

So basically how does a newly added identity column know what number to give each row, what if the clustered index is not unique? Is it random ?

Thanx

Pass In Null/blank Value In The Date Field Or Declare The Field As String And Convert

Dec 30, 2003

I need to pass in null/blank value in the date field or declare the field as string and convert date back to string.

I tried the 2nd option but I am having trouble converting the two digits of the recordset (rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2))) into a four digit yr. But it will only the yr in two digits.
The mfg_start_date is delcared as a string variable

mfg_start_date = CStr(CDate(Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 3, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 5, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2)))

option 1
I will have to declare the mfg_start_date as date but I need to send in a blank value for this variable in the stored procedure. It won't accept a null or blank value.

With refresh_shipping_sched
.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
.CommandText = "spRefresh_shipping_sched"
.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("ret_val", adInteger, adParamReturnValue)
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("@option", adInteger, adParamInput, 4, update_option)

How To Convert Datetime Field To A Date Field So Excel Recognize It As Data Type

I embedded a SQL query in excel that gets some datetime fields like "TASK_FINISH_DATE" .

How can I convert a datetime field to a date field in SQL in a way that excel will recognize it as a date type and not a text type?

I tried:
CONVERT(varchar(8),TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CONVERT(Date,TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CAST(TASK_FINISH_DATE as date)

**all of the above returned text objectes in excel and not date objects.

Informix Date Type Field To SQL Server Datetime Field Error

Oct 17, 2007



I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package
using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP
errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part

I tried a couple of things:

Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.

Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them
as datetime but it failed.

What options do I have that will work?

Transact SQL :: NVARCHAR Field Getting Truncated After Increasing Field Length?

Aug 28, 2015

I have a very strange situation. I've increased the size of an NVARCHAR field from 8 to 9 in a database table. The format of the data that I enter will either be an 8 character field (123456-8) or a 9 character field (1234567-9). The '-' is critical.

It used to only accept the 8 character version, but after increasing the field size, if I try to insert the 9 character field version, it gets truncated after the '-', as though it's still only allowing 8 characters. But that only occurs when I include the '-' or other such characters like '#'. If I try to insert 1234567a9, it works. The following explains the outcomes:

Inserted Value -> Result in table

123456-8 -> 123456-8      *Correct
1234567-9 -> 1234567-     *Wrong
123456789 -> 123456789    *Correct
1234567#9 -> 1234567#     *Wrong
1234567a9 -> 1234567a9    *Correct

Why is it that characters such as '-' and '#' are truncating the value, but only if the string is 9 chars long?

I'm currently using a direct t-sql insert statement in SQLExpress. The field is a simple NVARCHAR(9) field.

Access Memo Field To SQL Server Text Field

Nov 19, 2006

Hi,

I'm importing an Access database to SQL Server 2000.
The issue I ran into is pretty frustrating... All Memo fields that get copied over (as Text fields) appear to be fine and visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager... except when I display them on the web via ASP - everything is blank (no content at all).

I didn't have that problem with Access, so I ruled out the possibility that there's something wrong with the original data.

Is this some sort of an encoding problem that arose during database import?
I would appreciate any pointers.
