Hi Guys
I have 4 databases in the same space.My users use all of them and use the same username and password to log into these 4 databases.In each of these databases,i have put a control table to allow me to keep track of all users that have to reset their passwords.
The control table consists of the username and flag fields.When the flag is ON(1) the user is forced to reset thier password and if the flag is OFF(0) they are not.
When a user logs into any one of these databases and they have to reset thier password,how do i make sure that all the other tables in other databases are also updated to make sure that the user is not forced to reset their password again when they log into those other databases later since they are using the same username and password for all databases.
I am planning to use a stored procedure which i will put into all the four databases and when a user logs in and has to reset their password,that sproc is called and automatically updates all the other 3 tables in other 3 databases.
Some SQL examples will be very appreciated.
Thanks.
I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.
View 4 Replies View Relatedfinding is queries to find duplicate data.Basically I have a picklist table in a database and I have discovered that there are what looks like duplicate data (because the name is the same) but there is a different number on the end, as you can see from an example below.
NO, ENTRY
24, John Doe|26|05768
24, John Doe|26|5768
Do you know if there is a sql query that can be ran against this table that will look through the ENTRY column and select fields that are similar and not duplicates (duplicates can't exist due to PK constraints)
Table One is an older database and has the column employee id, which would always consist of first letter of the last name an underscore and a numeric value. So for example, data looks like
employeeID
R_12345678
S_5555555
T_777777
U_7777
Our new data structure simply removed the letter & underscore.
employeeID
12345678
5555555
777777
7777
Now my question is, how could I join on oldDB.employeeID to newDB.employeeID since the data is very similar, but not exactly the same?
Ok so facebook groups have 100,000's of members. Members can be part of an unlimited number of groups, and a group can have an unlimited number of members.
Comma Deliniated String seems absurd. Many-2-Many Database relationship seems like it won't scale well t the 10's of thousands and 100's of thousands of members (especially if you have 1000-5000 groups). A table for each group would work but thats a bit over the top in my opinion. XML file doesn't seem to be any better than the above options.
I am no database guru, but I can't figure out a scalable method of doing this, be it with or without a database. I need something that can support 10 groups that have 20 members each OR 1000 groups with 100,000 members each.
Any help, suggestions, or kicked in the right direction would be most appreciated.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIt seems that there should be a solution for my situation, but for the life of me I can't seem to figure it out.
I need to compare two "like" tables, containing similar data. Tbl 1 is "BOOKED" (which is a snapshot of inventory) and tbl 2 is "CURRENT" (the live - working inventory table). If I write my query as follows the the subsequent result is "duplicate" data.
Code Block
SELECT booked.item, booked.bin, booked.quantity, current.bin, current.quantity
FROM BOOKED
LEFT JOIN
CURRENT
ON booked.item = current.item
No matter what type of join I use, there is duplicate data displayed for each table. For example, if there are more bins in the BOOKED table that contain a certain product then the CURRENT table will repeat data and vica versa.
As follows:
Item
Bin
Quantity
Bin
Quantity
12345
A01
500
A01
7680

What I would like to do is display Bin and Quantity only once and the repeating values as NULL or [BLANK]. Or, to display all of the bins from both tables and only the quantities from each table in relation to the bin found in that table, returning a "0" if no quantity exists.

Is this possible? If so, how?
I also might add that it is ok for each table to contain multiple entries for any given item. This is basically being requested as an inventory variance report - inventory before physical count and immediatly after physical count - and will only be run once a year.
-----------------------------------------------
Just thinking out loud here:
What if I created three subqueries, the first containing only BOOKED information, the second containing only CURRENT information and the third being a UNION of both tables? Something like this:
Code Block
SELECT q3.bin, q1.item, ISNULL(q1.quantity, 0) as QTY_BEFORE, ISNULL(q2.quantity, 0) as QTY_AFTER
FROM
(select item, bin, quantity
from BOOKED)q1
Left Join
(select item, bin, quantity
from CURRENT)q2
on q1.item = q2.item
Left Join
(select bin, item
from BOOKED
UNION
CURRENT)q3
on q1.item = q3.item
Order By q1.item
I don't know if I wrote the UNION statement correctly, but I will have to try this when I get back to work...
Any suggestions?
I have a table (thanks to r937 and others) that list the 3 closest stores to each customer. I now want to take this data and 'group by' the customer so it shows only one record with the 3 closest stores in separate fields within the record. I am still new with SQL so if this is not possible or extremely easy, i apologize. Thanks in advance.
What it looks like now:
Code:
Cust# ClosestStore
customer1 508
customer1 604
customer1 414
customer2 579
customer2 987
customer2 417
customer3 751
customer3 487
customer3 113
What I want it to look like:
Code:
Cust # closestStore1 closestStore2 closestStore3
Customer1 508 604 414
Customer2 579 987 417
Customer3 751 487 113

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am about to move 8 SQL 2000 clusters instances residing on 2 seperate MCS clusters (4 instances each with 2 nodes each active/passive) to one single MCS cluster (2 nodes active/passive). The SQL Cluster VMs will have the same DNS names and IPs, however the MCS VM and nodes will have different names.
The planned method for moving the DBs is just to stop all SQL services copy the system and user MDF and LDF files and then restart SQL. From everything I have read this should be fine. However here are my concerns on a cluster platform:
Will the change in node names on the target cluster be a problem when moving the master DBs over from source SQL VMs? Are the cluster nodes listed somewhere in the Master DB?
A couple of the SQL instance VMs are invovled in transactional replication. If all of the SQL files are copied over and the target VM has the same DNS and IP name, will there be a problem with the transactional replication when SQL is restarted?
Thanks,

Hello All,
I have some groups set up in a matrix that basically group by transaction names. I am trying to consolidate all but one into the same group. Right now I have the expression of...
Code Snippet
=iif(Fields!TestName.Value="Name Search","Name Search","Logon Function")
this consolidates the aggregate results and group fine but it does not label the groups as expected. "Name Search" comes up as "Name Search" but instead instead of "Logon Function", It displays the rolled up group as the name of the fist group field. Is there a way to make an alias inside of an expression?
In many of my packages I have to translate an organizational code into a surrogate key. The method for translating is rather convoluted and involves a few lookup tables. (For example, lookup in the OrgKey table. If there is a match, use that key; if not, do a lookup of the first 5 characters in the BUKey table. If there is a match, use that key; if not, do a lookup of the first 2 characters... You get the idea.)
Since many of my packages use this same logic, I would like to consolidate it all into one custom transformation. I assume I can do this with a script transform, but then I'd lose all the caching built into the lookup transforms.
Should I just bite the bullet, and copy and paste the whole Rube Goldberg contraption of cascading lookup transforms into each package? Or is there a better solution I'm overlooking?
I am having a bit of a problem over here. I am trying to consolidate dates from multiple records into a time line that has no date overlap.

Any idea on how I can automate generation of this data?I have a lot of code written for that but I can't get the result I want.I don't know if someone wants to see my code, I got around 500 lines of it.I would appreciate any help with this.Thanks!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was messing around with stored procedures and I was wondering if creating a SP that populates a single table for reporting is a good idea?
I have ~10 queries that I have to currently run manually and was hoping to drop them into a physical table and then leverage that single table to pull into excel.
Some of my queries use virtual tables or CTE's, this is to get the aggregate set correctly.
Essentially I am working out of a data warehouse and would like to eventually get all my queries in one SP or something similar and then call that query for a insert.
Speaking of which could you create a SP that has several selects than with that output drops the records into a single table by using an insert into query so the data from the all the queries would line up into the right columns?
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT LEFT([REPORTING_MONTH], 4)+'-'+SUBSTRING([REPORTING_MONTH],5,6) as REPORTING_MONTH, t.EMPLOYEE,
'' as COUNT_FTP,
CASE WHEN [MEDIUM_RCVD] = 'EMAIL' THEN COUNT(MEDIUM_RCVD) ELSE '' END AS COUNT_EMAIL
FROM [GPO].[dbo].[DW_SUBMISSION] as s
JOIN #TEMPActivity as t
[Code] ....
I'm trying to get the set to come out all on one line. REPORTING_MONTH, EMPLOYEE, COUNT_FTP, COUNT_EMAIL
But when I try null or '' it creates a second record and doesn't merge the two results.

I'm in the middle of developing a Database for a hospital that measures its audits, inhouse operations, and finance. What we currently have and do everyday is collect data from a large database that is real time with patient data, progess, infomation, etc and dump it into a data warehouse that runs on TSI/Eclipsys. We run reports using a number of programs and dump it into Excel sheets that have charts, reports, etc. This Database for which I'm developing won't come soley from the TSI/Eclypsys source, but this is the only source thats updated regularly. I don't want to have in sync with TSI/Eclipysys in fear that every day when it updates data may be lost, not read, or worse won't be up date if there is a problem. My question is is it possible to run a query from Sequel Server 2005 that will take that data upon request using the reporing features on Sequel Server 2005. i.e. What if I need to run a report on measure B in department 12 from Jan 1-Feb 1, instead of being in sync, can I just write queries to take that information rather than double the data and take up twice the space and trouble. FYI, these datatypes rarely change in the TSI/Eclipsys data warehouse. This sure was long question and didn't intended it to be . Thanks for listening and hope to hear back.

Hi All,
We currently got two databases in the application(Visual web express with vb script). The one database is a sql 2000 that sits on a server and is fed by people that does E Learning. The app. got its own database(SQL 2005 express) with the record of the people doing the learning and some other attendances from other courses. I would like to determine attendances from both databases etc. How do I link this to table form diffrent databases into one table for me to do training cost etc.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I develop ASP.NET applications and use MS SQL 2000 Enterprise.
Each customer has one database and one custom design application. And, there is a gateway and a central database to get data from all databases.
Supposed there are 10 DBs. I want the data in those 10 databases updating to the central database directly.
So, the gateway can gather all data of 10 DBs from a central DB.
Now, my question is how should I do it in MS SQL 2000? Can I do it with a stored procedure (SP)? If so, how does the SP like?
Or, SP can only perform on it's own DB, but not execute across DBs? If so, how can I do that?
Thanks for advice
I have a web app that has been regulated to a disconnected PC. It's runing IIS and 2.0 with sql server express, but no connectivity. I have changes that are made to some of the data in the db (data, bot schema). There is one particular table that I cannot overwrite, and must extract the data.
What methods are available to do this swap of data between databases? I was thinking of doing something like this:
Track last date that remote db was updated. Upload updated database into data directory, loop through records for all affected tables, any date that was past logged date then update the record if it exists or insert new record, and then loop through the remote db and delete this records that dont exist in the updated db.
This seems intensive and slow - especially as the tables get bigger but I can't think of another solution that can be done by a user using sometime of web interface.
Dear all,
I faced a problem. I found all data/records of tables in a few databases were missing yesterday. I don't know what had happened. Can anyone tell me why? Can anyone tell me how to trace the root of the problem. Any log files I can trace? I fear it will happen again. My server is sql2000 and run on win server 2000.

Is there a way of comparing the data contained in two separate databases (on the same server)?
