Checking All Tables That Have Specific Column Name?
Jan 5, 2012Is there a command I can use to tell me all the tables in my schema that have a column name "Id"?
View 5 RepliesIs there a command I can use to tell me all the tables in my schema that have a column name "Id"?
View 5 RepliesI want to write SQL that will search the tables in a database for a specific column, like this. For instance, I have a column "Unique_ID" that is in many of our tables (hundreds) but not in others and want to find out the tables it is in. It is always the first column.
I tried to find a system stored procdure to do this but couldn't and tried to create a script using the sysobjects and syscolumns tables in the Master db, but came to a roadblock because they don't seem to be related at all.
I would surely appreciate if someone else has already done this!
Thanks!
I have a DB with some tables and, on certain tables, i've a column named "ID_COMPUTER".
I need to find all the rows where id_computer=<specific_value> from all the tables of my database, when column "ID_COMPUTER" exists.
Pseudo-code would be: select * from db.* where id_computer=<specific_value>
how to write this ?
Hello,
is there a way to find out that SQL Server 2005 (Express) engine is performing startup checked of a selected database?
The problem we are faced to is that our users shutdown brutally their laptops running their database. When they start laptops again, they impatiently start the application that tries to connect to the database. However, they get an error message:
Cannot open database XXXXX requested by the login. The login failed.
When they try after a minute or two, it works.
What we would like to do is provide an information message that the SQL server is checking the database and that they must wait for a while. Is there is a specific error code for this, can anyone help? We are using .NET 2.0.
Thank you,
Jan
Thanks for your time:
Background: After Insert Trigger runs a sproc that inserts values into another table IF items on the form were
populated. THose all work great, but last scenario wont work: Creating a row insert based on Checking that all 22 other items from the prior insert (values of i.columns) were NULL:
IF EXISTS(select DISTINCT i.notes, i.M_Prior, i.M_Worksheet, ...
from inserted i
WHERE i.notes IS NOT NULL AND i.M_Prior = NULL AND i.M_Worksheet = NULL AND...)
BEGIN
Insert into dbo.Items2Fix ...
From inserted i
END
I need to select specific values from all rows where the value of a specific column is "Active"
This part works: SELECT LastName, FirstName, MiddleInit, ClientId FROM dbo.Client
But I want to add: WHERE StatusType = (Active) and how to do this.
i want to check a value in 2 tables. the 1st table i want to check if the value exists and from the 2ed table i samething.
i came up with this but when it's doing the second if i get error on the page.
Dim ReturnVal As Integer
Dim ReturnVal2 As IntegerDim conn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("imacstestConnectionString").ConnectionString)
Dim cmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT [ReportNumber] FROM [AppraisalSummaryBlue] WHERE ([ReportNumber] = @ReportNumber)", conn)
'To check if the # is registered.Dim cmd2 As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT [ReportNumber] FROM [t_RegisterInfoTemp] WHERE ([ReportNumber] = @ReportNumber)", conn)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ReportNumber", txtReport.Text)cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ReportNumber", txtReport.Text)
conn.Open()
ReturnVal = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar())
conn.Close()
'This checks if the # is correct.
If ReturnVal > 0 Then
'This checks if its registered with someone else.
conn.Open()
ReturnVal2 = Convert.ToInt32(cmd2.ExecuteScalar())
conn.Close()
If ReturnVal2 <> 0 ThenServer.Transfer("regccinfo.aspx")
Else
lblError.Text = "the # is registered with someone else."

In the olden days when I used databases that kept each table in a separate file, I used to be able to tell when a specific table was modified by the date stamp on the file.
Is there a method in SQL server to check the "last modifed date" at the table level?
I didn't see anything in sysobjects.
Hi All,
Is it possible in SQL to Restrict value in one table checking a value on anather tables.
Scenerio-1.
I have two table let say,
Teb1 and Teb2. Teb1 has a column called- Business_type and Teb2 has a coulmn called Incorporated_date. I just need to restrict If the value of Business_type column in Teb1 is "Propritory" then Incorporated_date in Teb2 should not be blank (nulll) . Otherwise it can take null value.
Scenerio -2.[/B]
I have table called [B]SIC.
This table has a two column called SIC1 anc SIC2 . Is it possible to restrict that clumn SIC1 and SIC2 should have same values( duplicate values cannot be entered in both columns.
Please Advise.

For every table in my database there is a duplicate table with same columns. For example, employee is the name of main table, there is employee_dup table in same database.
There is only one column extra in _dup tables i.e.,idn column.
Now, I want to know all the columns present in main table which are not present in corresponding _dup table. There might be a chance of missing one or two columns in _dup tables. So i want a query to find out all the columns present in main table that are not present in hx table.
ok, ill lay it out like this, and try not to be too confusing.
I need to check my trasaction table to see that the user with a UserID bought, keeping track(adding up) of how many times they bought the Product with a productID, , then i need to selcect items from product table with the productID for the items the user bought,
i know how to return the product information, and how to check the tranaction table and i think how to add up the amount of tranastions for that item
so bacially i need to select data from a product table, for the products that the user bought tahts stored in the transaction table.
well i tried not to be confusing, but i think i failed

Will this script check the existing values in a column or am i missing something?
if EXISTS(select 1
FROM inserted
INNER JOIN TESTTABLE M ON
inserted.ID= M.ID
WHERE inserted.RECORD_Id >= inserted.RECORD_Id)
Everything seems hundreds, i now just need it to check the the existing values in the table

Hello,
I have an SSIS package that affects data in fourteen tables. This SSIS packge is supposed to insert, update, delete and apply various business rules to the data in the new database tabes in the same way that it occurs in the DTS package that affects the old tables in the former database.
After both the DTS packge and SSIS packages are run, the data in the fourteen tables from both databases need to mirror each other. I figure this is the best way that I can know that the new SSIS package is working correctly.
Is there something I can do in an SSIS package that can compare all of the tables between the two databases, record for record then (maybe as error output) produce output in the case where a mistmatch was detected between two given tables? Would a lookup transformation be helpful for this kind or thing, or should I think about doing it some other way?
The old database is on SQL Server 2000, and the new one on SQL Server 2005 64 bit. I've run into problems creating a linked server between the two to where I could just run queries to do this kind of check.
Any ideas?
Thank you for your help!

Ihave 2 tables...they are basically the same except for the column name in one of them because they deal with 2 different names, though..the data i want is in columns that have the same name.pretty much what i want to do...is .they also need to be distinct so i dont count duplicates...i can get them as separate tables...but i cant get them together..I need them in 1 column because of how it is sent to the C3 code page and how it reads it...the structure has already been previously set..and there are about 5 other statments that are being executed in this one stored procedure like this (also i wasnt the one who set this up).
image 1 is what is currently set up
imgur: the simple image sharer
top part is what is stored in tables..bottom is more of the result
it basically runs this code to get the bottom
DECLARE @id INT;
DECLARE @invest nvarchar(50);
SET @id = '7633';
SET @invest = '';
SELECT 'a' + CONVERT(nvarchar, orderfindings.risk_rating) AS cat, COUNT(DISTINCT orderfindings.prnt_id) AS stat
FROM orderheader, orderaudits, orderfindings
WHERE orderheader.id = orderaudits.orderheader_id AND orderaudits.ID = orderfindings.prnt_id
AND orderheader.id = @id AND orderfindings.risk_rating > 0 AND orderaudits.Investor_Name LIKE '%' + @invest + '%'
GROUP BY orderfindings.risk_rating
If i want agencies instead of findings..just replace it..agencies and findings are the 2 tables..they are the pretty much identical column wise...but i want the result together..i've tried several ways..but i cant seem to get it.
image 2 - the table at the bottom is more what i'm looking for..it combines them both into 1
imgur: the simple image sharer
if an order has a finding or agency or both in it..then it gets marked as a 1 for that risk rating...if it doesnt..then 0 for that risk rating..and then sum them all up to see what i got..
I've been working with it...did this [SQL] compare2 - Pastebin.com ..got it to display 2 columns..but still not the right result...i'm getting a1 = 1...a2 = 1...so its not running through all the orders...or it needs a way to count it...i put a sum at beginning of case statement..erro because of counts...so i took counts out...
Hi all,
I have a query similar to this:

from sysobjects where type = 'U'
order by name
What I need to know is that, I need to unselect some of the tables that starts with name cj_. I don't want the tables that starts with a name cj_.
Can someone help me on this.
Thank you
In SQL 2008, there is a way to backup a database, but specify the tables backed up, and, during the restore on the destination server, restore only those tables in the database?

View 6 Replies View RelatedWe currently have a company program in foxpro which inputs all of our information into its database. We are trying to shift from this to new updated software and a SQL database. There is a program we created which converts all the data from our old database into our new SQL database in preparation for our final move to the newer software. However, some of the tables in SQL were not taken directly from our old database but rather added in directly after our initial use of SQL, so when we ran our conversion software, a couple of specific tables were wiped because there was no equivilant within our old database. We already altered our conversion program to not touch those tables again, but is there any way to do a roll back or to find a backup of specific tables?

I want to copy FirstName and LastName cells from table1 to table2. Which FirstName and LastName cells depend on the username, i.e. which person has logged in.
Q1) How can this be done? (I have chosen to SELECT from Table1 and output to variables (C# code); then INSERT these variables into Table2. [Finding it very difficult]).
Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have two queries from two different tables ex ABC and BCD. For table ABC, according to my query, I got 11 records ; for table BCD I only got 9 records.
Bottom line: I would like to see only 11 records from Table ABC including certain data from table BCD after I joined this two tables.
However, no matter what I did I always got 99 records when I joined.
