Change Duplicate Data In Server Column

Oct 17, 2014

I want to change duplicate data in my sql server column.

the data= 'Barack Obama' , what I want
'Barack Obama 23453'

I have the following query:

UPDATE klant SET naamvoornaam=naamvoornaam + CAST(klantnummer AS VARCHAR)
WHERE naamvoornaam NOT IN (
SELECT(naamvoornaam)
FROM klant
GROUP BY naamvoornaam
HAVING ( COUNT(naamvoornaam) = 1 ))

Message from messages:
String or binary data would be truncated.

I think the max length exceeds the length of the destination column. I've tried:

Max(Len(naamvoornaam + CAST(klantnummer AS VARCHAR)))

message from messages:
An aggregate may not appear in the set list of an UPDATE statement.

Delete Rows With Duplicate Column Data But Unique Row Data

May 25, 2000

Hello,

This probably has been addressed before but I was unable to get the search to work properly on this site.
I am needing a script/way of deleting all rows from a DB with the exception of one record left for each row that has duplicate column data. Example :
Row 1
Field1 = 12345 Field2 =xxxxx Field 3=yyyyy Field4=zzzzz etc.
Row 2
Field1 = 12345 Field2 =zzzzzz Field 3=xxxxxx Field4=yyyyyy etc.
Row3
Field1 = 12345 Field2 =20202 Field 3=11111 Field4=zzzzz etc.
Row 4
Field1 = 54321 Field2 =xxxxx Field 3=yyyyy Field4=zzzzz etc.
Etc. Etc.

I want to be able to find the duplicates for Field1 and then delete all but 1 of those rows.( I don't care which one I keep just so only one is left.) The data in the other fields may or may not be unique.

I know how to find the duplicates it's just the deleting part I am having problems with. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks,

Kerry

Dynamiclly Remove Duplicate Rows From Results Table Based On Column Data?

Nov 30, 2007



I have a results table that was created from many different sources in SSIS. I have done calculations and created derived columns in it. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to remove duplicate rows from this table without first writing it to a temp sql table and then parsing through it to remove them.

each row has a like key in a column - I would like to remove like rows keeping specific columns in the resulting row based on the data in this key field.

Ideas?
Thanks,

Change Column Data In All Tables At Once

Sep 17, 2005

I would like to change column data in all tables in a single database at once.

For instance, i have many tables in a database, and about 30% of the tables has the column "orderplace".
And all the data in orderplace (every tables in the database) are "houston". instead of going to each table and
"update table set orderplace = 'dallas' " .... is there anyway that i could run a sql statement and it will update all the tables in database that has the orderplace column to "orderplace = 'dallas' " ?

any ideas ? thanks.

Change Value Of Column Mimetype In Table Data

Aug 23, 2013

I have two tables:

dtr
dataid........Subtype
data
docid....mimetype

I need to change the value of column mimetype in table data, but only for these entries which have the value 144 in column "Subtype" in table dtr.

Here is my sql:

with cte as (
select
DataID,
SubType,
MimeType
from dtr A1, data A2
where A1.dataid=A2.Docid And A1.Subtype='144'
AND
A2.mimetype='application/news-message-id'
)
update cte set MimeType = 'application/x-outlook-msg'

I've tested it and it works. Do you see any problems with this SQL?

As updates are risky I'll do a database backup. Is it possible to get all changed entries so that I can track my update, because I don't have a report about the changes? Maybe that everythin is transferred to an output file?

What Is The Best Practice To Change A Column's Data Type In A Very Big Table?

Dec 11, 2007



Hi All,

I am using SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition fully patched. Database is in Simple Recovery mode.

I need to change a column's data type from "int(4)" to "smallint(2)". I know for sure that there will be no data (precision) lost, because I know the possible values that this column could have.

My problem is that the table I am dealing with has 600,000,000 records in it. I dropped all indexes before I tried to alter the table. But still it is taking forever and filling up my 280GB disk with transaction log file.

I know that in Oracle, if I want I can turn off logging and do these kind of modifications relatively faster.

I was wondering if there is a way of disabling logging before running this alter command.

What is the best practice to handle a situation of this sort?

I appreciate your help.

Thanks in advance,
Sinan Topuz

Update On Large Table - Change Data Type For Text Column

Dec 10, 2014

I need to update a large table, about 55 million rows, without filling the transaction log, in the shortest time as possible. The goal is to alter the table and change the data type for Text column from VARCHAR(7900) to NVARCHAR(MAX).

Since I cannot do it with an ALTER TABLE statement (it would fill up the transaction log) I'm thinking to:

- rename column Text in Text_OLD
- add Text column of type NVARCHAR(MAX)
- copy values in batches from Text_OLD to Text

The table is defined like:

create table DATATEXT(
rID INTEGER NOT NULL,
sID INTEGER NOT NULL,
pID INTEGER NOT NULL,
cID INTEGER NOT NULL,
err TINYINT NOT NULL,

[Code] ....

I've thought about a stored procedure doing this but how to copy values in batch from Text_OLD to Text.

The code I would start with (doing just this part) is the following, but maybe there are more efficient ways to do it, or at least there's a better way to select @startSeq in the WHILE loop (avoiding to select a bunch of 100000 sequences and later selecting the max).

declare @startSeq timestamp
declare @lastSeq timestamp
select @lastSeq = MAX(sequence) from [DATATEXT] where [Text] is null
select @startSeq = MIN(Sequence) FROM [DATATEXT] where [Text]is null
BEGIN TRANSACTION T1
WHILE @startSeq < @lastSeq

[Code] ....

SQL Server 2012 :: Duplicate Of Part Num To Be Summed And Add Another Column Called User

Aug 25, 2015

There are 3 columns in the result set - part num, Qty and MO num. Each MO num has part numbers.So there might be same part numbers in MO's. Each part num has qty. So, if I group by part num, I get Qty.

1.There are duplicates of part.num and I want to remove duplicates and add quantities of those duplicates into one single quantity. For example, xxxx is a part num, then xxxx=1,xxxx=3,xxxx=5. I want xxxx=9. I want to sum those. Another question is, each MO has a user. I want to join user and MO num in MO.

Heres the code,

part.num , (woitem.qtytarget/wo.qtytarget) AS woitemqty,

(SELECT LIST(wo.num, ',') FROM wo INNER JOIN moitem ON wo.moitemid = moitem.id WHERE moitem.moid = mo.id) AS wonums FROM mo INNER JOIN moitem ON mo.id = moitem.moid

LEFT JOIN wo ON moitem.id = wo.moitemid

LEFT JOIN woitem ON wo.id = woitem.woid AND woitem.typeid = 10 LEFT JOIN (Select sum(woitem.qtytarget) as labor, woitem.woid, uom.code as uom from woitem JOIN part on woitem.partid = part.id and part.typeid = 21 JOIN uom on woitem.uomid = uom.id group by 2,3) as labor on wo.id = labor.woid LEFT JOIN part ON woitem.partid = part.id

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Change Data Capture(CDC) For Data Warehouse / Reporting?

Aug 12, 2015

I have a requirement to implement CDC for 50+ tables to implement incremental data changes warehouse/reporting rather than exporting the whole table data. The largest table is having more than half a billion records.

The warehouse use a daily copy of OLTP db (daily DB refresh). How can I accomplish this. Is there a downside in implementing CDC just for the sake of taking incremental changes on the tables?

Is there any performance impact if we enable CDC on OLTP db?

Can we make use of the CDC tables on the environment we do daily db refresh so that the queries don't hit OLTP database?

What is the best way to implement CDC to take incremental changes for reporting.

SQL Server 2008 :: Getting Duplicate Data When Connecting To Another Table

Jul 25, 2015

I have the following two tables:

CREATE TABLE [MailBox].[Message](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[SenderId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[Message] [nvarchar](max) NOT NULL,
[SentDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_MailBox.Message] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

[Code] ....

I'm building a messaging functionality in to my application, I'm able to insert a message into the database and this message then appears inside the other users inbox. The issue I have it when I click on this message to view the conversation I make a call to the following sp as shown here:

@UserId bigint,
@SenderId bigint
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;

[Code] .....

The problem with this is I'm trying to connect to the user photos table to return their profile picture, but for some reason even though I have specified IsProfilePic I get all the photos returned, instead it should be two photos, one for the @UserId and the other for the @SenderId, its equivalent to me doing this:

Select *
From [User].[User_Photos]
where (UserId = 1 or UserId = 2) and IsProfilePic = 1

And this returns me the correct information.

Server Change Data Capture

Jul 28, 2015

When using Change Data Capture on SQL Server 2012 I have researched that you cannot truncate data in a table. Is this also true if one wanted to delete data from the table? Getting a little confused about what DDL statements can be ran against a table with CDC enabled. Does CDC have to be disabled before performing certain DDL statements against a table?

I would like to safeguard the truncation and dropping of certain tables within the dbo schema. Wondering if I could do this with one fail swoop with CDC enabled on those tables. The other option would be to use a DDL trigger to prevent certain DDL statements to be performed.

Duplicate Counts Per Column

Nov 6, 2006

I'm have a problem with trying to generate a view that has a count of duplicates values per column in a table.

example I have a table with the following structure:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestDpln](
[CountryCode] [smallint] NOT NULL DEFAULT ((0)),
[NPA] [smallint] NOT NULL DEFAULT ((0)),
[NXX] [smallint] NOT NULL DEFAULT ((0)),
[XXXX] [smallint] NOT NULL DEFAULT ((0)),
[3-Digit] [nvarchar](3) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[4-Digit] [nvarchar](4) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[SiteIdx] [int] NULL DEFAULT ((0)),
CONSTRAINT [TestDpln$PrimaryKey] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED
(
[CountryCode] ASC,
[NPA] ASC,
[NXX] ASC,
[XXXX] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]

the data loaded looks like this

INSERT INTO dbo.TestDpln VALUES('1','312','555','1212','212','1212','1')
INSERT INTO dbo.TestDpln VALUES('1','312','555','1213','213','1213','1')
INSERT INTO dbo.TestDpln VALUES('1','525','555','2212','212','2212','2')
INSERT INTO dbo.TestDpln VALUES('1','525','555','2213','213','2213','2')

the results I need are

SiteIdx 3 Digit Count 4 Digit Count
------- ------------- -------------
1 2 0
2 2 0

I've tried various queries the closest being:

SELECT DISTINCT SiteIdx, COUNT(*) as "3-Digit Count"
FROM dbo.TestDpln
GROUP BY SiteIdx, "3-Digit"
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1

but it only shows one column and one site I'm not sure how to get the '4 Digit Count' column to show up and the rest of the sites. below are the results I get so far.

SiteIdx 3 Digit Count
------- -------------
1 2

any help would be great.
Thanks

SQL Server 2012 :: Data Compare To Identify Change

I am in process to develop TSql code to identify change in data.

I read about Binary_checksum and hashbyte. Some people say hashbyte is better than binay_checksum as chances of collision are less.

But if we may consider following, chances exist in hashbyte too. My question is what is the best way to compare data to identify change (I can't configure CDC) ?

select HASHBYTES('SHA','121'+'34'), HASHBYTES('SHA','12'+'134'),BINARY_CHECKSUM('121','34'),BINARY_CHECKSUM('12','134');
