Is there an easy way to combine to SQL databases? Both DBs have the same structure but different data. If there just so happens to be duplicate records what will happen? Does anyone have any idea of where I should start at? :confused:
View 12 RepliesDear Developres,
Actually I'm on the half way of making a portal and I get some problem I need your kindly helps.
at first I use the membership feature of ASP.net 2.0 to have login and all so by default it has generate an ASPNETDB.MDF file which its is (Microsoft SQL Server Database File (SqlClient)) and also I have two more databases one for file managemnet and one for Calander and Contacts but I need all to be one so whenevr one user can login it can show his own file in his page but now everyone can see all,Can anybody guide me should it all be in one database and if yes how can I connect all since one is generated by default by Visual studio2005.Should I use a Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient)???
Thanks in advance.
I have two databases that each contain the same tables, but different data in the tables. For example, each data contains a table with the same name, arcus, that holds data on our customers. Although the data is different in each table, there is some overlap, particularly in the area of customer number since that is assigned automatically when a customer is entered and serves as the primary key for that table.
To consolidate, I need to merge the two databases. How can I import the data from one table in second database into a table in the first database and append a number to the customer number so that all data will be brought across.
To better illustrate:
database one has an arcus file with a field cusno and contains cusno 1-50
database two has an arcus file with a field cusno and contains cusno 27-58
The overlapping cusno's are not the same customer.
How can I get all the cusno from the arcus file in database two to the arcus file in database one?
Is this even possible?
Hi.I'm currently working on a project which involves the creation of aweb page which reports selected data to customers from two back-endsystems. I use ASP script language on IIS, the server is MS SQL 2000.Now I'm struggling with combining two tables from the differentdatabases. I'm sure it's simple enough, but I'm a little short on theSQL expertise.I've got two databases, db1 and db2, and then two tables, db1.t1 anddb2.t2. I need to combine these two tables (both tables have amatching key field) to make a list of all items from db1.t1, and thosewho correspond from db2.t2.I can list all items from db1.t1, but I can't seem to get the db2.t2joined in.Can anybody help me with the syntax for this, please ? Help !Answers, hints & tips greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance !Kenneth
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have very limited knowledge of sql server so my question is probably very basic. I have 3 database types with 3 different scripts to create these databases. The 3 applications that use these databases are very similar.
How do I create 1 master database that all 3 applications can use?
I've tried on SQL 2000 to run the first script then second & third but it did not seem to work.
Once I have the master database created, how do I create the 1 master script? Is it easier to create the database & script it or to copy & paste sections from the 3 scripts?
Any help would be appreciated.

The Classifieds starter kit supplied by microsoft has 2 databases - aspnetdb.mdf & classifieddb.mdf.
How do I combine the two into one. I understand that there is now need to have two databases. I also understand that most hosting co's do not support Sql Server Express
Any help offered is appreciated. Please offer help in a Dummies format - I might understand that

I have 2 DBs located on separate Sql Servers but the DBs are linked. I am querying data from both DBs but want to combine the results. Here is my query but it doesn't seem to be working.
(SELECT DISTINCT
idname, name, address, address2, awardedtoname, suppno
FROM contract INNER JOIN
house ON contract.idname = house.idname)
JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT
tpd.PropertyNumber AS [Property No], tpd.Address1 + ' , ' + tpd.Address2 AS Estate, tpd.Address1 AS Address1,
[Code] ....
How I could combine the results?
Currently we have one customer database containing various tables. As part of requirements for a new client, we need to manage their data in a totally separate database. The tables and structure are exactly the same but we would be loading data into a separate database.
I am looking for a way to combine tables with the same name in each database when I run queries, rather than having to query each database separately. Currently we actually have many queries set up in MS Access which use an ODBC link to query the data off SQL server. I am aware it is possible to apply a UNION SELECT in Access from 2 separate ODBC connections, but this is extremely slow.So my initial question is - is there a way to provide access to the tables from both databases over the same ODBC link? If this cannot be done over ODBC I guess we can consider more "modern" methods, but ideally we want to keep this in MS Access as that is where our existing queries are based. I was hoping that some kind of view can be treated as an ODBC connection.I mentioned ideally we want to keep the reporting queries in MS Access.
Dear Readers,Is it possible, like in Access, to link to tables in other SQL databases that are on the same server? I have a query that I originally had in Access that queered from multiply databases. It did this by having those other tables in the other databases linked to the database that had the query.
Hi all,
I need some help in combining two results. I am using the Northwind Database and the Orders Table. The first select outputs the table shown below, Table 1 and the second select outputs the result in the second table Table 2. How can I combine these two to get the third table, Table 3 ?

Hello everyone,
I'm having problems transfering data. I don't even know if this is even possible, but this is what I'm trying to do. I have two tables: ZipRegionUps, ZipRegionUsps. Both tables have the same two columns: Zip, Region.
I want to combine the two. Having one table ZipRegion with three columns: Zip, UpsRegion, Usps Region. I've tried everything I can think of, but no luck. Here's the most sensible Stored Procedure I have tried:
If I wasn't very clear with my explanation, I'm hoping the procedure will clear things up:
CREATE PROCEDURE CMRC_Databases_DataTransfer
AS
DELETE FROM CMRC_ZipRegionTest
INSERT INTO CMRC_ZipRegionTest
(
Zip,
UpsRegion,
UspsRegion
)
SELECT
CMRC_ZipRegionUps.Zip,
CMRC_ZipRegionUps.UpsRegion,
CMRC_ZipRegionUsps.UspsRegion
FROM
CMRC_ZipRegion,
CMRC_ZipRegionUsps
GO
Is there any way to do this? Or do I have to manually enter all the entries?
Any help would be great. Thank you.

I have a transactions table that stores prices for products bought and sold.
If I want average buying prices I use:
SELECT AVG(price), product FROM transactions WHERE transactiontype=1 GROUP BY product
and for selling prices:
SELECT AVG(price), product FROM transactions WHERE transactiontype=2 GROUP BY product
Is there a way to combine this into one SQL query, to create one bindable dataset ?
I'm trying to combine the following two strings to create a single Insert statement (and thus only generate one record instead of two).
insertString = "Insert comments (uID) Select uID FROM users WHERE uName = @uName"
insertString2 = "INSERT comments (eventID, text) VALUES ( @eventID, @comment)"
I have tried:
Insert comments (uID, eventID, text) SELECT uID FROM users WHERE uName = @uName VALUES (uID, @eventID, @comment)
Individually they work fine, but I can't get the syntax correct to allow them to work together. As you can tell, I'm not very good with SQL, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
I have 2 columns in a table and would like to combine

Hi,
Can anybody please tell how can I combing all records in field into one field.
For example
If my table is like
Final
_______
aaa
bbb
ccc
ddd
and i want result as
final1
_____
aaabbbcccddd
I do not want to use cursors for this. Please let me know if somebody knows the answer
Thanks
I have a database table tblobjects like this:
object_name, reference_id
a 1
a 2
a 3
a 4
b 2
b 3
b 1
b 4
c 2
c 4
c 5
c 6
d 2
d 4
d 5
d 6
I now would like to have a SQL query which gives me the number of
unique object and reference combinations, like this:
a
b
c
d shouldn't be displayed, because it's equal to c. The problem is also that a sequence of object references is
also important. So, for instance, object a shouldn't be equal to object b. The solution should also work is MS SQL and Mysql.
Any ideas how can I do this?
Thanks!
These similar queries do much the same thing: the first one gets a list of ticket ID's that have been bought as 'standalone' tickets by a particular user, along with the total quantity they purchased. The second one also gets a list of ticket ID's along with the quantity purchased by that user, but the list of ID's is driven by tickets that appear in their basket as part of packages, instead of standalone tickets.
I hope that's clear; if not, maybe the SQL will make it clearer:
SELECT
[tblTickets].[id] AS TicketId,
SUM([tblBasket].[ticket_quantity]) AS SingleTicketsTotal
FROM
[tblOrders]
INNER JOIN [tblBasket] ON [tblBasket].[order_id] = [tblOrders].[id]
INNER JOIN [tblTickets] ON [tblTickets].[id] = [tblBasket].[ticket_id]
WHERE [tblOrders].[id] IN (SELECT [id] FROM [tblOrders] WHERE [tblOrders].[user_id] = @userID AND ([tblOrders].[order_status]=@purchasedOrder OR [tblOrders].[id]=@currentSessionOrder))
GROUP BY [tblTickets].[id]
SELECT
[tblCombinations_Tickets].[ticket_id] AS cTicketId,
SUM([tblBasket].[ticket_quantity]*[tblCombinations_Tickets].[quantity]) AS PackageTicketsTotal
FROM
[tblOrders]
INNER JOIN [tblBasket] ON [tblBasket].[order_id] = [tblOrders].[id]
INNER JOIN [tblCombinations_Tickets] ON [tblCombinations_Tickets].[combination_id] = [tblBasket].[combination_id]
WHERE [tblOrders].[id] IN (SELECT [id] FROM [tblOrders] WHERE [tblOrders].[user_id] = @userID AND ([tblOrders].[order_status]=@purchasedOrder OR [tblOrders].[id]=@currentSessionOrder))
GROUP BY [tblCombinations_Tickets].[ticket_id]
I need to combine these. So that I get one result set with: ticketID, quantity bought as standalone, quantity bought as part of package.
I can't figure it out. I've tried inner joins, outer joins, left joins, right joins, nested subqueries and, briefly, banging on the screen. But every time, what happens is that I only get the rows where the ticket ID occurs in both queries. I need everything.
This has got to be laughably simple. But I'm stuck :( Can anyone help?
Not concatenation, more... err.. I don't know what you'd call it.
SELECT
DISTINCT [C01241 Opened].[Col004] AS OpenerEmail,
[C01241 External Data].[DMCEMAIL] AS ExternalDataEmail,
[C01241 Internal Data].[Col15] AS InternalDataEmail
FROM [C01241 Opened]
LEFT JOIN [C01241 External Data] ON [C01241 External Data].[DMCEMAIL] = [C01241 Opened].[Col004]
LEFT JOIN [C01241 Internal Data] ON [C01241 Internal Data].[Col15] = [C01241 Opened].[Col004]
(Apologies for the table/col names, this is all very temporary)
So I've got a table, [C01241 Opened], which details all the people who registered. Those people might turn up in table [C01241 External Data], or they might turn up in [C01241 Internal Data]. Yes, they will always be in one or the other, and no, they won't appear in both.
At the moment, I just pull in the email address. But the client, of course, wants a whole bunch of fields that occur in the 'original data' tables: Firstname, Lastname, Company, Favourite color, etc.
What I want to know is if - and how - I can make the query output one column for each of the required fields, but populate it from either of the two 'original data' tables, depending on where their email address pops up in.
Does that make sense?
If I have two tables with the following data:
Table_A
A
B
C
Table_B
1
2
3
is there a way to make a select the gives me this result(in separate columns):
A 1
A 2
A 3
B 1
B 2
B 3
C 1
C 2
C 3
I have this data I need to query where if there is more than one startdate for a person, I need to get the earliest startdate, however get the latest enddate and money associated with that enddate. Highlighted in blue is an example of the values I need to return within one record.

Hi
What is the best way to add two columns into a single column. Lets say I have two columns with first and last names. How can I have a new column with first,last name??
Thanks
Hello,
I have two tables that I would like to combine but with some rules.
Table 1 has two columns with Actual Time and Actual People
Table 2 has two columns also with Planned Time and Planned People
I would like to combine these two tables if the actual time is not more than 30 minutes from a planned time
If I use one of the planned times, i would not want to show it again, even if there is another actual time that is not more than 30 minutes of it.
For ex.
Planned Time has 20:00,23:00
Planned People has 2,5
Actual Time has 19:00,19:30,19:45,21:15
Actual People has 5,2,5,3
Output should be like
Planned_Time,Actual_Time,Planned_People,Actual_People
,19:00,,5
20:00,19:30,2,2
,19:45,,5
,21:15,,3
23:00,,5,
I can do this in asp but if this can be done in sql it would be better.
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I am working from a database containing sets of questions and answers relating to maternity episodes. The answer tables are broken up into two tables, freetext answers and standard drop-down answers. The questions relating to these answers are held in the same table, MAT_QUESTIONS.
When I want to view the freetext answers and questions for a certain episode (based on incidentid), the following code works..
SELECT P.SURNAME, P.FIRNAME,QS.ID,QS.QUESTIONTEXT, FA.ANSWERTEXT
FROM MAT_FREEANSWERS FA, MAT_QUESTIONS QS,
MAT_INCIDENTS I, MAT_DELIVERY D,
PASMAIN P
WHERE FA.QUESTIONID=QS.ID
AND FA.INCIDENTID=I.INCIDENTID
AND I.INCIDENTID=D.INCIDENTID
AND D.MOTHER_PAS_NO=P.PAS_NO
AND D.BIRTH_DATE BETWEEN '2007-01-01 00:00:00' AND '2007-01-31 23:59:59'
AND QS.QUESTIONNAIREID=2
AND FA.INCIDENTID=4501
and if I want to view the answers to the standard drop down questions, I use the following code...
select P.SURNAME, P.FIRNAME,QS.ID,QS.QUESTIONTEXT, A.ANSWER
from MAT_INCIDENTS I, MAT_DELIVERY D, PASMAIN P,
MAT_QUESTIONNAIRE Q, MAT_QUESTIONNAIREINCIDENTS QI, MAT_QUESTIONS QS,
MAT_ANSWERS A, MAT_INCIDENTANSWERS IA
WHERE I.INCIDENTID=D.INCIDENTID
AND I.INCIDENTID=QI.INCIDENTID
AND D.INCIDENTID=IA.INCIDENTID
AND D.MOTHER_PAS_NO=P.PAS_NO
AND Q.ID=QI.QUESTIONNAIREID
AND QI.QUESTIONNAIREID=QS.QUESTIONNAIREID
AND QS.ID=A.QUESTIONID
AND A.ID=IA.ANSWERID
AND D.BIRTH_DATE BETWEEN '2007-01-01 00:00:00' AND '2007-01-31 23:59:59'
AND Q.ID=2
AND I.INCIDENTID=4501
However, I would like to join the two together, as I would like to see a list of all questions and answers posed to a particular patient. But, as there are so many tables in common, I'm having difficulty doing this.
Would appreciate any help!

I have a database, and I need data from 3 tables.
From the first table I just need the primary key: issueID.
I can make a left outer join with my second table so I can have this result.
select A.issueID, B.projectID
from issuerequest as A left outer join projects as B on (A.issueID=B.referenceID)
group by A.issueID
gives:
100 | null
101 | P003
102 | P002
103 | null
...
When the value in the second column is null, I need to check the value
in the 3th table.
The join between the first and the thirth is:
select C.issueID, min(D.project) as Project
from issuerequest as C left outer join ProductCustomer
on (C.customer = D.customerID) and
(C.product=D.produktID)
where actuellproduct='1'
group by C.issueID
this gives a result as:
100 | P002
100 | P003
101 | P004
102 | P002
103 | null
...
What I actually want is just 2 columns with
in the first IssueID and in the second Project
and no duplicate data. Everything (except null) is more
important then the same value in column 3.
100 | P002
101 | P003
102 | P002
103 | null
I've tried with except, but can't get all duplicate
data out.
How do you combine ntext fields? I can combine nvarchar by this example: Position1 +', '+ Position2 AS Positions
Is there a way to combine ntext? Thanks!
