Compare Tables Structures

Apr 1, 2008



Hi All,

I have 2 tables in different database. I need to compare the tables structure and insert the fields if not existing.

Ex:

I have 3 fields in table1.(database name Pubs)

Table1
F1
F2

F3

I have 2 fields in table2.(database name northwind)

Table2
F1
F2


I need to insert the table1.F3 into Table2. Basically i need to compare all the fields with table1, if not exist in table1 i need to insert that field into table2. I am using SQL Server 2000. Please send me the code.

Compare 2 Tables

Jun 8, 2006

I have 2 tables that are exactally the same.

Table 1 - Is named LIVE
Table 2 - Is name EOM (End of Month)

The 2 tables have these fields
MEMBER
STREET

I want to build a query that will return any member who has changed their address (ex: member's eom address is "123 main st", and now their live address is "345 apple st")

But I do not want to display any addresses that are different because that member wasn't a member last month (not in the eom table)

Note: Member Numbers Never Change, only addresses will.

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

How To Compare Different Tables

Jan 31, 2008

hi, I'm pretty new to ssis so this may be an absolute beginner question but i couldn't find a solution yet. the task is to compare data from tow tables which are of the same structure. table1 contains data before some operations and table2 contains the results. now i have to find out which datasets have been changed, which one are new and which one are gone.

i've done some googlin and found this TableDifference http://www.sqlbi.eu/Projects/TableDifference/tabid/74/Default.aspx component, but to me it seems to be kind of buggy, so I had the idea of trying to set an sql statement on both ole db sources where i tried to select only the datasets that are not contained in the other table. so i tried something like this:

select * from lib.table_1 except select * from lib.table_2

but this doesn't work either. so i would be really thankful if someone could help me.

Compare Each Rows In Two Tables?

Nov 16, 2011

I need to compare two tables in each row. the tables are as follows:-

Table a:

Code:
IDFirst_Name Last_name Birthdate
1Shradha Deshkmukh 1981-12-25 00:00:00
2Shradha Verma 1981-05-11 00:00:00
3Divya Dutta 1982-07-21 00:00:00
4Matthew Palmer 1983-12-28 00:00:00

table d:-

Code:

4MatthewPalmer1983-12-28 00:00:00
5SamuelMaxwell1984-05-22 00:00:00

I want to compare the tables using first name, and I have a log variable which I want to have the value as per the differences in the table that is if the first name matches and second name and dob dont match it shows log value for that FN as 'LN and DOB dont match'.

similarly if First name matches and dob matches then @log is 'LN not match'.

And in case all three match it should show 'match'as log value.The query I use is a s follows:-

Code:
USE testing
GO
DECLARE @NR int
DECLARE @log varchar(200)
SELECT @NR = COUNT(*) FROM a
WHILE @NR>0

[code]...

the result I am getting is :-

Code:
fnlndob (No column name)
ShradhaTiwari1981-12-25 00:00:00match
ShradhaTiwari1981-12-25 00:00:00match
DivyaDutta1983-07-21 00:00:00match
MatthewPalmer1983-12-28 00:00:00match

I have tried using CASE but that doesnt work either.

Compare Amounts Between 2 Tables

Sep 21, 2012

I have two tables. One is Invoice_tbl, with one account per customer.

This table has 3 fields; CustomerID, InvoiceAmount, InvoiceID.

Then second table is, Payment_tbl, with 2 fields; InvoiceID and PaymentAmount. The Payment table can have multiple payments from each customer.

With Access, i would run a QUERY(call it PaymentTotal) against Payment_tbl, then do a "GroupBy" on InvoiceID and SUM on the "Amount" field.

I then would create a NEW query against Invoice_tbl and INNER JOIN on Payment Total.

How would i do this with SQL?

Feb 27, 2014

I have 2 tables. They both have the same fields [OFO_Code] and [Description]

Table 1 is Called Qualification and Table 2 OFO_Code. The second table is a lookup table. The info in Table 1 's description column in some places does not match that of Table 2.

I am trying to loop through these tables to Update the info in Table 1's description to match the correct description in Table 2.

Their are 1417 items in Table 2 and 77000 items in table 1.

There are NO errors when executing, just no update

Query To Compare Two Tables

Nov 4, 2005

I have a database I want to query. It is a medical billing system. I basically want to compare a list of Names and Birthdates in an Excel spreadsheet to the table of patients in the database that have that insurance type and return only the rows from the spreadsheet that don't exist in the database.

This is an eligibility list, so we need to find those that don't have this insurance set up for them in our billing system and update their records.

We will probably want to do the update manually so I don't mess it up too bad , but would like to zero in on who needs the updates rather than having to look at every single record.

Any ideas on how to approach this?

Would this be a join, or would I need to do a select from table 1 where pt/insurance not in select pt/ins from table 2?

Compare Two Tables And Update Or ????

Aug 7, 2006

ans writes "I’m using SQL Server
• I’ve got 3 tables: tblOne, tblTwo, tblThree
• Using the stored procedure(let call this stored procedure sp_Result) I generate result using all the above tables(tblOne, tblTwo, tblThree).
• The problem is, it takes too long to execute(around 15 sec), which is not acceptable as I’m using in the result in the web application
• I’m thinking of scheduling to run the above stored procedure to run once every hour and write the result in a new table, tblResult.
• now the user only queries in the tblResult tables. Since it is a straight forward query it will take less than 1 sec. Perfect !!!
• Now the tblResult already exist, and the user are queries only to this table.
• How would I compare the result produced by stored procedure sp_result and the table tblResult?
• How would I update tblResult with the produced result?
• Would be a good idea to write the result in a new table called temp, then drop the table tblResult and then rename the table temp to tblResult?"

Compare Schema Between Tables

In the process of purging data to history tables,

to the main or the history table.
So to ensure identical schemas, we use this function:

If the schema is identical between the two table, RETURNS 1
NOTE: system tables or non-existant tables that are NOT in INFORMATION_SCHEMA views will compare equal (RETURNS 1)
==================================================================================================================
SAMPLE USAGE:
DECLARE @schemaOK BIT
SELECT @schemaOK = dbo.fnCompareTableSchema('dbo.table1','dbo.table2')

IF @schemaOK = 1
PRINT 'TABLE SCHEMA IDENTICAL'
ELSE
PRINT 'TABLE SCHEMA DIFFERENT'

Get Result Set From Two Tables Without Compare

Jan 26, 2008

Hi there,

Can someone please help me figure out how I can write a select statement that returns a row from one table and the count of records from the second table using the row name from the first table?

In other words:
First table has only one column "name" and that table name is called "namelist"
Second table has multiple columns, and the table is called "name"
so, what i want to do is something like:
select name from namelist and select count(*) from [name]

results should be:
sean,0
bob,1
tom,5
etc...

Compare Fields In 2 Tables

Jan 30, 2008

For example, I have 2 tables that have very similar fields

Table 1 Table 2
ShipRpt ShipRpt
invoice invoice
total sold total sold

Is it possible to compare each of these fields and return any record that has non matching data? I would join the tables on the shipping report or invoice and only compare the total sold field. If the invoices match and the total sold is different in each table, can I just return the 1 record?

Compare Data In Tables

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to determine the changes an application makes to a database.The plan is to copy the existing schema (active) to a reference schema, runthe application and then diff the table data between the reference and thea active schema. I have found one software vendor who has a tool to dothis, but it will only do one table at a time (interactively); I have morethen 300 and will run this a few times.One other way of determining the changes, I guess, would be to log all sqlstatements (in order), but I don't know how to do this (either).Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.Leo
