I have created a table on SQL Server from SAS. The table gets created fine. However, the table schema has my user ID in it (AD-ENTmyuserid.Table1). How can I change the schema to dbo.(dbo.Table1)? It's fine if I have to make this change in SQL Server Management Studio.

I am working on a dtsx package wherein i am sending the data from OLE DB Source (SQL Server) to OLE DB Destination (Oracle). For development purpose i use DEVLOPMENT environment on oracle but for unit testing i have to use QA or Some other Schema. when i use DEVELOPMENT Schema in ole db destination, tables are accessed under Schema name eg. "DEVELOPMENT"."EMPLOYEE", but when i m chenging schema name to QA table names are not changing as "QA"."EMPLOYEE". Data Flow Task is pushing the data to DEVELOPMENT environment only.
Can Anyone suggest me any remedy for it ?
Or this is one more BUG in SQL Server 2005.
Advice and suggestions are highly appreciated !

I am still having problem with making View automatically updates itself when the underlying table schema changes. Running sp_recompile on the view table doesn't seem to work either, as I am still getting old format from the view (in Design mode the view returns the right info, but not when I open the View by doing Open View) even though the underlying schema has changed. Right now I find that I have to go into the View and change it a bit to force a recompilation.
And even if sp_recompile does, it would require that I manually do it each time I change a table. Any idea?
Hi all,
I'm admitedly a bit new to the world of replication, so please bear with me. I've got two SQL Server 2000 servers running in different locations. Server A does transactional replication over a push subscription to server B. If I need to make a minor change to one of the replicated tables (for example, dropping a no longer used column or changing a varchar field's length) do I need to drop the subscription, make the changes and then re-initialize the schemas and data?
For minor changes, I really hate having to knock out the site runnign off server B while the subscription is re-initialized and data is bulk copied back over. If I want to just make the changes manually on both servers will that cause problems down the line?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I need to know if the anyone has had success using any sort of tracking tool to manage schema in SQL 7. I'm responsible for several SQL servers, each with upwards of 10 databases - most still in deelopment phase. We use Erwin to store our models and Visual sourcesafe for stored procs and sql scripts.
But now as a Dba I'm looking either:
(1) create a custom database to keep track of schema changes (as they movefrom development to test to prod). OR
(2) buy a 3rd party tools to keep track of schema changes? Platinum?
It's getting too much for a single Dba to manage a busy devel shop with 20 db's. Schema is comming in too often. Only some of our db's are in Erwin.
thanks,
Is it possible to turn off transaction logging when making a table schema change? For example, when expanding a varchar field from 10 to 40 characters? This is occurring on a hosted site for a table with about 150,000 records. The db size is 200 Mb. If I try this normally with transaction logging enabled, I get the dreaded log file is full message, even if I first truncate it.
I was thinking about doing the following instead:
taking the db offline
creating a backup
disabling logging
change the schema
re-enable logging
put db back online
If a problem occurs during the schema change, I would just restore from the backup. Please let me know the following:
Is it possible to turn of the transaction logging for the schema change?
Do you see any problems with the above.
Alternatives?
One alternative is to look into increasing the db size. A second is to add a new field (named temp) to the table, copy the old field to the new field, delete the old field, add another field (with the original field name) with the new schema, copy the temp field to the new field, and finally delete the temp field. This should require less space in the transaction log. Unfortnately, it could possibly affect some linked Access databases with the new field order.
Thanks in advance.

Simple question, I hope. I need to add a column to a table of a database that is mirrored. How do I have to do that? Do I need to stop mirroring? Is it sufficient to simply pause mirroring? If I make the change on the principal db, what do I need to do the make the same change on the mirror?

How can I keep schema changes in the subscriber's database when I replicate the snapshot from the publisher?
I just want to move data from a remote server, but it seems that the tables are being dropped which is not good as we use the subscriber as a development box.
Please advise

Question re Merge rep (pull) and processing order. We have a group of changes associated with an app upgrade, the scripts run fine on the publisher. Part of the change includes creation of a new table , followed by altering a view to use new table.Following the change at the publisher, when the sync is kicked off from the subscriber, it fails - the alter of the view throws an'invalid object' error with regard to the new table. Seems as if the view alter is attempted before the dependant table has been created.
I have tried to amend the processing order of the view using sp_changearticle, which executes (quickly) with a 0 return code.But it is to no avail , the error still occurs. is it possible to change the processing order for a view article , which will be applied to schema changes ? Have
One of our databases has at some point in its dark past had the owner of the guest schema changed to be a named user, rather than the default guest user. Correcting this feels like it would be easy enough by running the following...
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON SCHEMA::guest TO guest
but that results in..
Msg 15150, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
Cannot alter the schema 'guest'.
I realise the guest schema is a special one, and cannot be dropped, but I'm not trying to do that. End goal is to export the database to a SQL Azure DB, and this guest schema assignment is blocking that process from completing.

I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely,

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.

I'd like to create a temporary table with the same schema as an exiting table. How can I do this without hard coding the column definitions into the temporary table definition?
I'd like to do something like:
CREATE TABLE #tempTable LIKE anotherTable
..instead of...
CREATE TABLE #tempTable (id INT PRIMARY KEY, created DATETIME NULL etc...
I'm sure there must be a simple way to do this!
Many thanks,

Hi
I come from a MySQL background and have been having some trouble finding the MSSQL command that corresponds to MySQL's "describe." I Googled for around 1/2 hour but can't seem to find it.
Any help appreciated
Hey,
I'm looking at creating a table in a stored procedure
[declare @tempTable table]
however, rather than then declaring the tables schema
[declare @tempTable table (pkField IDENTITY (1,1), SomeOtherField varchar(50), ...)]
I'd like it to simply use the schema of an already existing table (plus an additional column).
Is there a way to do this without having to manually write the table schema?
A simple example is:
I have a table
OriginalTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol)
I'd like to create a temp instance of that table called tempTable which would have a final schema of
tempTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol, myTempCol)
The reason I'd like to do this using the schema is so that I don't need to update all my procedures in the future when we decide to add some more detail to the originaltable which needs to be selected as well.
Thanks a lot for any help or direction you can provide.

Hi Gurus,
I am looking for a script which lists me the differences between two table schemas.

We currently have all tables in the dbo schema, but for organizational reason we would like to split them up in multiple schemas and I wonder if that can be done without re-creating the tables.
So my question is, is there a way to move a table into a different schema without re-creating it? (For those familiar with Postgres I'm looking for an equivalent to "ALTER TABLE foo SET SCHEMA newschema") sp_rename only allows a "one-part name" for the new name, so apparently that cannot be used.
I am more familiar with writing SQL for Oracle than MS SQL Server. Within Oracle there is a simple command, 'Describe', which actually shows the data types, and whether or not an attribute accepts NULLS. MS SQL Server does appear to support such a command, however I am looking for a way to describe the attributes of tables nonetheless.

I am a bit confused and wish to share this with you for help. We are designing a billing application to bill telephone calls. It currently handles a single rate plan. So what it does is that it looks up the RATES table and matches the called number area code with the RATES.ACCESS_Code field to find the tariff for that area and multiplies that by the number of minutes. Here is the current schema.
CALLS
•ID (pkid)
•Called Number
•Duration
RATES
•Destination Name
•Access_Code (pkid)
•Tariff
Now the problem is that we need to process calls based on RATES per OPERATOR. Each operator is a telephony carrier with similar RATES. However, each call will be prefixed with a number to indicate which operator carried that call. Accordingly, the database should relate that prefix with the proper operator and then looks up the RATES that are related to that operator.
In conclusion we will have a replica of the RATES table for multiple operators. An operator is only supposed to have two fields I guess (name and ID).
So now we need to re-engineer the schema to adapt to this situation.
Eg. 95004433313445 (Will be identified as BT operator)
93004422376234 (Will be identified as AT&T operator)
Can anyone help please?
PS: we are using SQL Express 2005

I created a schema, Admin. I have to transfer a table from the dbo schema to the admin schema. I keep getting an error that I do not have permission or the table does not exist.
Simply looking for confirmation here - is my syntax correct?
ALTER SCHEMA Admin TRANSFER MyShop.Addresses;
(MyShop is the Database, Addresses is the table)
NOTE: When I created the schema, I did not create an inner table. The syntax for that was simply CREATE SCHEMA Admin;
