I have an application which uses DTS to import data. After the data is imported the transaction logs are no good since the import wasn't logging.
Is there a way to turn logging on?
I'm new to this forum. This 'problem' has occured many times, but I've always found a way around it. I have pages with datagrids, in which a user can edit a certain fields and then update the tables with new data. Lets say when a user edit a Name field and a money field. If he/she left those two fields blank, the table is automatically updated with a <null> (for the name field) and a 0 (for the money field.) Both these columns were set up to allow Null values. Anyone has an idea why they were updated that way? And is there like a standard on how the data types are updated if a field is left blank? Thank you very much.
I have some sql results coming out as a string when it is a bunch of numbers separated with a coma. (1,2,3). I need to insert this figures as separate numbers in separate rows into a table in a database. How do I split them and how do I input them. I tried using a loop and it works well in an asp page but I need to do that in sql.
Hi, guys I try to add some error check and transaction and rollback function on my insert stored procedure but I have an error "Error converting data type varchar to smalldatatime" if i don't use /*error check*/ code, everything went well and insert a row into contract table. could you correct my code, if you know what is the problem?
thanks
My contract table DDL: ************************************************** ***
create table contract( contractNum int identity(1,1) primary key, contractDate smalldatetime not null, tuition money not null, studentId char(4) not null foreign key references student (studentId), contactId int not null foreign key references contact (contactId) );
My insert stored procedure is: ************************************************** *****
create proc sp_insert_new_contract ( @contractDate[smalldatetime], @tuition [money], @studentId[char](4), @contactId[int]) as
if not exists (select studentid from student where studentid = @studentId) begin print 'studentid is not a valid id' return -1 end
if not exists (select contactId from contact where contactId = @contactId) begin print 'contactid is not a valid id' return -1 end begin transaction
/*Error Check */ if @@error !=0 or @@rowcount !=1 begin rollback transaction print ‘Insert is failed’ return -1 end print ’New contract has been added’
begin transaction update table1 set column1 = 10 where column2 = 'ABC' If @@Error > 0 then rollback transaction else commit transaction print 'show all updated fields' go
What i want to achieve is if transaction is successful, i would like to see which fields were updated (in form of report or something like following below:
I am doing some replication setup in test environment. Will it be possibleto use the transaction log from a production server to update the testserver? Any reference to any document will also be appreciated.I know I have to restore most recent backup from the production server tothe test server. and all the transactions after the backup on the productionserver has to be run on the test server.Thanks for your reply.-Mokles
Take a table, where not all the columns are populated:CREATE TABLE #T (A int, B int, C int, D int)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (1,2)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (3,4)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (5,6)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (7,8)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (9,10)The values for C and D can be computed as functions of A and B. For thisexample, let's say they are twice A and three times B, respectively:CREATE FUNCTION dbo.F(@A int,@B int)RETURNS @Tbl TABLE (X int, Y int)AS BEGININSERT @Tbl (X,Y) VALUES (@A*2, @B*3)RETURNENDNow we use the function to compute the other columns:UPDATE #T SET C=X, D=YFROM dbo.F(A,B)Right? Well, no. Instead, I get this message:Server: Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 2'A' is not a recognized OPTIMIZER LOCK HINTS option.Any suggestions? I would like to use this structure, if possible.Jim GeissmanCountrywide Home Loans
I have been trying to get a function to UPDATE a row in the database. I know that this is not supported but by using code from a previous post this can be accomplished [See my code below].
Hi, Good morning to all. I'm facing the following problem. Can anyone please help me!...When a transaction is open, the database is getting locked for other user to fetch the records from database.I have to update multiple database table with huge data (Lac). So the transaction will be open for longer period. Mean while if somebody tries to fetch or do select query it give timeout exception. And it does not function until the transaction is closed.How to avoid this database locking for other users. Below is the code that i have used: using (DbConnection dbconn = base.db.CreateConnection()) { dbconn.Open(); DbTransaction dbtran = dbconn.BeginTransaction(); try { Here inserting, updating to multiple table will be happening dbtran.Commit(); } catch (SqlException ex) { dbtran.Rollback(); } finally { dbconn.Close(); } } Thanks in advance... :) Regards,Ashok kumar.
Can someone please tell me why in the bloody hell this isnt working? It ignores the WHERE VENDORID match portion and marks all instances of USERID match to TRUE. I've been banging my head for an hour... have I really forgotten basic sql???!!!!public static void UpdateVendor(VendorEvaluationEntity VEE) {int vendorid = Convert.ToInt32(VEE.VendorevalVendor); int userid = Convert.ToInt32(VEE.VendorevalUser);SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["VendorEvaluationConnectionString"].ConnectionString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Update tblVendorUser set vendoruser_vendor_evaluated = 'true' where (vendoruser_vendor_id = @vendorid) and (vendoruser_user_id=@userid)", conn);SqlParameter pmvendorid = new SqlParameter(); SqlParameter pmuserid = new SqlParameter();pmvendorid.ParameterName = "@vendorid";pmvendorid.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Int; pmvendorid.Value = vendorid; pmuserid.ParameterName = "@userid";pmuserid.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Int; pmuserid.Value = userid; cmd.Parameters.Add(pmvendorid); cmd.Parameters.Add(pmuserid); conn.Open(); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); conn.Close();
In the SQL 7.0 Documentation is indicated that the UPDATE(<fieldname>), if used in a isert/update trigger, it return TRUE or FALSE based on presence of <field> in the SET List, if the trigger was fired by an UPDATE operation, or in the list of field to fill, if the trigger was fired by an INSERT operation.
Below there is a piece of code that demostrate the false documentation assertion in the case of a trigger fired by an INSERT operation, infact even if i have specified only the FIELD1 in INSERT Statement the trigger Print in the screen that i have touched FIELD2 too.
Now the SP1 don't solve this BUG, even if i had read some month ago (before that SP1 was out) that in SP1 this will be fixed!
Anyone Can Help me to solve this problem, indicating me where i can post the problem to sensitize the Microsoft's Service Pack Factory ?
Thank in Advance
PS:Sorry for my Bad English .... correct me please if some part are not readable!

I am trying to write an update statement based on an aggregate and it will not let me. Please find below the SQL.
update abtimesummary set hours = sum(a.hours) from abtimestore a join abtimesummary b on (cast(a.weekno as varchar(10)))+'-'+(cast(a.empno as varchar(10))) = b.summaryid
and this is the error message:

SQL Server 2000, C#, ASP.NET and ADO.NET. I have searched for 3 days trying to figure out why my ADO.NET Transaction executes my stored procedures and runs the .COMMIT() on the server, figured this out by using the SQL Profiler, but the data doesn't show up in the database tables and I recieve no error from SQL or ASP.NET. What gives???? Anyone else ever heard of such a thing. Please help, before I loose my sanity.
I have two tables. One has Projects with the total amt of hours worked on the project itself. The other is an Employee_Projects table with individual rows of hrs per employee worked on the above referenced projects.
I need to SUM all the hrs from the Employee_Projects table and GROUP BY project number, then UPDATE the Projects table with the sum of hours where the Project Number from table A matches the Project Number from table B.
Of course, you cant use an aggregate function in an UPDATE clause, so what would be the easiest way to do this??
I'm trying to update a varchar field using SUM. I keep getting the error that the sub query returns more than one value.
UPDATE CIRSUB_M SET TRM_DMO = SUBSTRING(TRM_DMO,1,11) + (SELECT CAST(SUM(COPIES) AS VARCHAR(5)) FROM CIRSUB_M WHERE BIL_ORG = '02' AND CRC_STS IN ('R','P','Q','T') GROUP BY PUB_CDE, DNR_NBR) WHERE BIL_ORG = '02' AND CRC_STS IN ('R','P','Q','T')

Here is a query which updates certain values. GetAddress is another sproc which returns addrId. I have to pass certain values ie strAddress1 strCity .....intZip4 values in the sproc GetAddress and execute the update query. In doing so it says GetAddress in not a recognized function name. Is the syntax correct to exec sproc GetAddress.
update Persons set Persons.strLastName=H.strLastName, Persons.strNameSuffix=H.strNameSuffix, Persons.lngHomeID= GetAddress (H.strAddress1,strAddress2,H.strCity,H.strState,H. strZip,H.intZip4), Persons.lngMailID= GetAddress(H.strAddress1,strAddress2,H.strCity,H.s trState,H.strZip,H.intZip4) from ALSHeadr H where Persons.lngSSN=H.lngFedTaxID
FYI I can post GetAddress sproc but it is working properl. I just want to know how to pass the values in ALSHeadr table into the sproc.
I have a question, what kind of Query or function do I have to use to UPDATE multiple record that I just want to add a letter at the end of the existing OrderNum.
Before ID NAME OrderNum 1 Pete WEB123 2 Paul WEB124 3 Sam WEB125 4 Tim WEB126
After ID NAME OrderNum 1 Pete WEB123A 2 Paul WEB124A 3 Sam WEB125A 4 Tim WEB126A

I have looked at the membership and roles stored procs from Microsoft and noticed that most of them are wrapped into a transaction. Ok some of the stored procs updated more than one table in which case it makes sense to wrap the code into a transaction. Our stored procs are a little simpler and insert, update or delete only one table for the most part. My question is: What is good practice, should I wrap my stored procs in transactions or because I am only updating one table leave it the way it is, see sample below: Please advise, newbie ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[syl_Category_Insert] @CategoryName nvarchar(64), @LanguageID int AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; BEGIN TRYINSERT INTO [syl_Categories] VALUES( @CategoryName, @LanguageID) SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() AS [CategoryID] RETURNEND TRY BEGIN CATCH --Execute LogError_Insert SP EXECUTE [dbo].[syl_LogError_Insert]; --Being in a Catch Block indicates failure. --Force RETURN to -1 for consistency (other return values are generated, such as -6).RETURN -1 END CATCH END
I am running a vba procedure ( adp file ) that executes successively 5 stored procedures . however it happens that the execution breaks at the middle of the code thus giving a situation where only 2 tables among 5 are updated.
Is it any solution to rollback transactions update already done before the code breaks due to error ?
I was thinking about combining all stored proc on a big one and use Begin transaction - commit transaction and rollback transaction ... however i am not sure wheter updates involving several tables can be handled on one transaction.
I have this sql stored procedure in SQL Server 2012:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CreateBatchAndSaveExternalCodes] @newBatches as dbo.CreateBatchList READONLY , @productId int , @cLevelRatio int , @nLevelRatio int AS set nocount on;

In recent testing, I have found that the trigger function UPDATE under SQL Server 6.5 SP5 behaves differently then SP4. For insert, the update function returns true on items that have not been explicitly inserted.
Is this a bug? Is this a new feature change? Where can I get more information on a bug list for SP5?
I'm getting this when executing the code below. Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback. I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.
I've tried both with and without the Set XACT . . ., and also tried with Set Implicit_Transactions off.

It's got me stumped, so any ideas gratefully received.Thx
We have a rather large environment and have just a couple of boxes out there that we are getting cannot begin distributed transaction on inserts and updates but works fine on selects. Inserts and updates work fine outside the begin tran / commit so it's definitely DTC
We have checked the configuration on and the source box is set to No authentication required same for destination.
We have: Verified credentials running the service, changed them, same problem. Uninstalled and re-installed MSDTC per Microsoft instructions.
Have run all the tools for checking DTC DTCPing etc and followed those procedures which typically in the past has resolved any DTC issues. Other than swapping out the offending pc for a new one we are at a loss.
