Code Table Maintenance
Mar 29, 2004
Hello,
I am working on the logical model for a database. I need to use a number of code tables (tables that keep typically name value pairs. I need maintain data like products, services etc).
I am wondering if I increase the abstraction and use one table to represent the name value pairs but use a category to identify each type. Is there is any value in doing this?
The advantage with this I think is consolidating the data and probably minimizing the administration
The disadvantages may be too many joins that need to be qualified by the category type. Also, I may end up having too many self-joins.
Any suggestions?????

Dear Friends,
I am having 2 Tables.
Table 1: AddressBook
Fields --> User Name, Address, CountryCode
Table 2: Country
Fields --> Country Code, Country Name
Step 1 : I have created a Cube with these two tables using SSAS.
Step 2 : I have created a report in SSRS showing Address list.
The Column in the report are User Name, Address, Country Name
But I have no idea, how to convert this Country Code to Country name.
I am generating the report using the Layout tab. ( Data | Layout | Preview ) Report1.rdl [Design]
Anyone help me to solve this issue. Because, in our project most of the transaction tables have Code and Code description in master table. I need to convert all code into corresponding description in all my reports.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

I am running an overnight job for table Maintenance - this job execs a SP. It has been working okay for a while and is suddenly failing (last two weeks) with Error 515 cannot insert nulls into column. I realise that it is possible that a change has been made but cannot for the life of me ascertain what it is. I have checked server config, database properties and user options and it all appears to be the same as a server that is running this job okay. Please help!!

I have been asked to look at some performance isssues with an application that utilises a 800GB table. This table is huge and contains 4 int columns and 1 decimal column. The table has a clustered index that covers 4 of the int columns and is heavily fragmented and it has not been maintained for a long time. The system has limited free space to even attempt rebuilding the index. Does anyone have any experience of running a the Alter Index Reorganize command on such a large table? Any information on what storage would be required to attempt this, how long would this take?

sql server 2000I am currently maintaining a table that contains 30 Million+ records,30 columns, and 11 indexes and will double within the next six mouths.The application that accesses this table, mainly for read onlypurposes, runs without any problems. We have begun using Crystalreports and are now having problems. When we create reports thataccesses the large table our server has significant performance dip.The application begins to time out and the reports take a very longtime, even with simple selects on indexed field.I have began looking into partitioning the large table on its key fieldand creating a partition view. But from what I have read this willonly help if we key on the partitioned field. And all other searcheswill actually take a little longer.Archiving old data is not an option. All the data is being usedAny suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.Rick

Hello,
I have a question that I hope someone can clear up for me. I have come across a number of different suggestions on DB maintenance, for example reindexing with the following script:
USE DatabaseName --Enter the name of the database you want to reindex
DECLARE @TableName varchar(255)
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT table_name FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_type = 'base table'
OPEN TableCursor
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
DBCC DBREINDEX(@TableName,' ',90)
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
END
CLOSE TableCursor
DEALLOCATE TableCursor
My question is, doesn't the maintenance plan have this functionality inherent in it when you create the maintenance jobs to reindex? Is there a benefit to scripting things out vs just using the maintenance plan wizard for this sort of thing and any of the items it covers? I came from an Oracle background where this was a no-brainer but I am a bit confused on the choices with SQL Server.
Thanks.

I want to insert a row for a Global user in Table 'A' whenever ADO.Net code inserts a Local user row into same table. I recommended using a trigger to implement this functionality, but the DBA was against it, saying that stored proecedures should be used, since triggers are unreliable and slow down the system by placing unecessary locks on the table. Is this true OR the DBA is saying something wrong? My thinking is that Microsoft will never include triggers if they are unreliable and the DBA is just wanting to offload the extra DBA task of triggers to the programmer so that a stored procedure is getting called, so he has less headache on his hands.Thanks

Ok, so im pretty much finished writing my forum web page. However to display things like how many replies each thread has and who replied last, i need to perform a query in the code file. Im guessing its simple enough but i cant get the syntax for actually performing any query. I already know the sql syntax like select * from all that stuff but how do i get do something like:
Dim x as integer = sqlQuery("Select count(*) FROM ...")
Currently i have it all working by creating a table and making it invisible and just pulling data from the table but thats sloppy and pretty ineffecient if i databind a table for every single topic name.

I need to connect to a table in my database to get the contents there to put into a string variable in C# behind code. I’m having trouble with writing the part with the SqlConnection. I want to take the contents from a specific field in a specific record. I think the SELECT command might look like:SELECT formulation FROM Current WHERE id = 1formulation,id are fields, Current is the tableThe string variable is defined by: string test="000000";My connectionStrings in the web.config: <connectionStrings> <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </connectionStrings>
Thank you for your help.

First of all let me say that ASP.NET a new programming environment for me so please forgive my ignorance.
Can someone please tell me how to write data to a SQL table that is a Binary data type? I have a stored procedure on the SQL server that I am calling to insert data into a table. I build a parameter list and set the values. It worked just fine before I added a binary field to the SQL table. My problem is that I don't know how to set the Binay data type to pass it to the stored procedure. Here is part of the code:
GetCMD = Myconnection.CreateCommand
GetCMD.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
GetCMD.CommandText = "SCHEMANAME.InsertLineItem"
GetCMD.Parameters.Add("HEADER_ID", SqlDbType.VarChar, 150)
GetCMD.Parameters("HEADER_ID").Value = "some value"
GetCMD.Parameters.Add("@OPTIONS", SqlDbType.Binary)
GetCMD.Parameters("@OPTIONS").Value = HOW DO I SET THIS VALUE????
rowsaffected = GetCMD.ExecuteNonQuery()
I assume serialization but have not figured out how. Anyone's help is greatly appreciated!!

I wish to call a custom code function from a table control that would return rows of data to be displayed in the table. Is this possible?
Specifically, I'd like to pass a large text string to the function, have the function break the string into smaller strings, and then have the smaller strings displayed in the table. The number of lines returned may vary, depending on the original string passed in.

I am building a Visual Sudio process that will Truncate and load data to an Access database (2010) from SQL Server (2012). I have one "Execute SQL Task" for one table (LungCancer_HF_Patients):
"DELETE LungCancer_HF_Patients.* FROM LungCancer_HF_Patients;" that parses and works.
I have another table (Report1):
"DELETE Report1.* FROM Report1;"
that does not parse with a message "The query failed to parse. Incorrect syntax near '*'."
Why the first one parses correctly and the other one does not?

How do I shred not only the text but the whole starting <html> to finishing </html> and insert it into a table I would be very happy.

Hi all,My program is a central data processing application built in ASP.We have different companies that use different web pages on another webapplication (from different countries) to load some inventory data(merchandise - clothes).Here is my requirement: Load different types of data (in differentformats) into a common set of tables, to do this I have to firstfilter, do lookup's, use cross-reference tables on this data and thenload it into a couple of tables.Since data is so different everytime, I want to have one main storedprocedure in which I can build the table (I know the format of thisdata so I know what columns/types to create) into which I will feed thedata.After this I will create other stored procs/udf's that reference thistable (probably from the same main stored proc) 'cleanse' the databefore loading into the actual tables.How feasible is my approach? (if you can call it one :-) I do not wantto have seperate tables for each country, that will be too many and sothis plan...If not any other ideas will be really helpful.thanks much

below is some code I use to identify where a patient has attended the ED department whilst also admitted as an Inpatient. This report works fine. However while most of the results are recording issues to be corrected some of them are real and as so can be excluded from the report.
Is there a way I can build in an exclusion table which would include:
 Â
SELECT
IP_ADMISSION.HeyNo AS HEYNo
,IP_ADMISSION.NHSNo2 AS NHSNo
,IP_ADMISSION.Forename AS Forename
,IP_ADMISSION.Surname AS Surname
,IP_ADMISSION.SourceAdmNatCode AS SourceAdm

I am not sure I understand the problem I am causing, but I am a beginner!
Here's the situation: I have a table located on MS SQL server database number 1. Said table, which we'll call WIDGET_PRICES, is accessed regularly by my existing source code and has no problems.
At some point, I decide to move operations to MS SQL database number 2 and do a very simple database copy of WIDGET_PRICES from database 1 to database 2 using the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
The end result, inevitably, is that my source code can no longer access the very same table as it is located on the new database server. The code hasn't changed, it's still trying to access WIDGET_PRICES as always. And, from what I see on my screen through Management Studio, WIDGET_PRICES appears just fine.
An example error is the one I just got:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e37'
Invalid object name 'YB_ITEMS'.
/yardbark/tampabay/header.asp, line 27
The only clue is that while my transferred tables often look named like "database1.WIDGET_PRICES on database 1, they wind up looking like database2.WIDGET_PRICES on dabase 2.
I include a little more detail and screenshots of the tables in questions at this web page.

I need to run stored procs based on a list in a code table. In other words, it reads the name of a stored proc from a table and runs it and does this for all the rows in the table. I think the ForEach loop container will do what I need and there is an ADO enumerator option but the documentation does not tell you how to use this. From what I can tell, you need to get a dataset into an SSIS variable first and then you plug the variable name into the ForEach ADO enumerator. Is that correct? If so, can someone tell me how to get a dataset into a variable?
Thanks
