Constant Table Size?
Feb 9, 2007
Hi, thanks for taking a minute to help me out.
I've got a bunch of reports that have very specific formatting requirements (not mine, industry standards). Basically I need to have different headers and footers on each page, so I don't think I can use the report's headers and footers. Instead I'd like to use each table's (one for each page) set of headers and footers. This is fine for getting the data in there, but I'd like the table footer to be forced to be at the bottom of the page because having a footer halfway down just looks bad.
To summarize, is it possible to have a table footer be in the same place on a page (almost) regardless of how many rows there are returned.
pg1 pg2
header header
data data
data
footer footer
I'd prefer not to split each page into a different report and use those footers, so if there are any other hacks out there I'd really appreciate it
Thanks, Jeff

recently i noticed that my trans Log size is not increasing(it is constant) , but the databse size is increasing at high speed.
why is it so? earlier the reverse used to happen i.e databse size increased only after a certain period. and log size increased at const. rate.

Is there a perf difference between:
create function dbo.zzz
returns uniqueidentifier
return '0000-0000-0000-00000000'
select dbo.zzz
vs.
se;ect '0000-0000-0000-00000000'
Thanks,

Need to update one table with value of a column in another table plus a constant:
UPDATE TABLE_A
SET TABLE_A.COLA=TABLE_B.COLB+'10'
FROM TABLE_A
INNER JOIN TABLE_B
ON TABLE_A.COLA=TABLE_B.COLA
WHERE TABLE_A.COLA=TABLE_B.COLA
The above statement works except the concatenated string has space between TABLE_B.COLB text and '10'. How to remove the space (4 characters) so that the string shows as one word 'TABLE_B.COLB10'?

I'm trying to fill a temp table whose columns are the same as another table plus it has one more column. The temp table's contents are those rows in the other table that meet a particular condition plus another column that is the name of the table that is the source for the rows being added.
Example: 'permTable' has col1 and col2. The data in these two rows plus the name of the table from which it came ('permTable' in this example) are to be added to #temp.
Data in permTable
col1Â Â Â col2
11,   12
21,    22
Data in #temp after permTable's filtered contents have been added
TableName, col1Â Â Â col2
permTable, 11,    12
permTable, 21,    22
What is the syntax for an insert like this?

I have SSAS 2008 Enterprise sp2 (not R2) running on a production server. One of the dimensions is defined as real-time Rolap - set to clear the cache whenever the table changes.
I placed triggers on that table to be sure, so I know no changes occur on that table sometimes for 10 or 15 minutes at a time - and yet I get 100's of change notifications (I noticed them on a profiler session). It seems as though the notifications come as often as the dimension gets queried.
I think this is causing one of my longer running queries to fail because of locking issues. I assume this is because the queries are getting killed when they're in middle of using an outdated cache.
The strange thing is that I cannot reproduce this on the dev servers. The main difference between the dev and production servers is that the production servers are behinfd a cluster. I don't know if that could make any difference.
I really need to know why I'm getting so many notifications. Â

Hi,
i use this script that show me the size of each table and do the sum of all the table size.
SELECT
X.[name],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[rows]), 1), '.00', '') AS [rows],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[reserved]), 1), '.00', '') AS [reserved],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[data]), 1), '.00', '') AS [data],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[index_size]), 1), '.00', '') AS [index_size],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[unused]), 1), '.00', '') AS [unused]
FROM
(SELECT
CAST(object_name(id) AS varchar(50)) AS [name],
SUM(CASE WHEN indid < 2 THEN CONVERT(bigint, [rows]) END) AS [rows],
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved)) * 8 AS reserved,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS data,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, used) - CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS index_size,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved) - CONVERT(bigint, used)) * 8 AS unused
FROM sysindexes WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE sysindexes.indid IN (0, 1, 255)
AND sysindexes.id > 100
AND object_name(sysindexes.id) <> 'dtproperties'
GROUP BY sysindexes.id WITH ROLLUP) AS X
ORDER BY X.[name]
the problem is that the sum of all tables is not the same size when i make a full database backup.
example of this is when i run this query against my database i see a sum of 111,899 KB that they are 111MB,but when
i do full backup to that database the size of this full backup is 1.5GB,why is that and where this size come from?

I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?

In an effort to automate a process, I am trying to populate a csv textfile with data from a SQL Server 2000 database that will be imported by a proprietary database; however, not all of the data required to go into the textfile is available in the source db. Fortunately, the data I'm needing has constant values for the fields that I want to populate, i.e Lab Name. Whereas, the Destination database will receive data from other labs but not via this source.
Is it possible to use a constant rather than a db field within the SQL query to populate one of the textfile fields. (I placed "LABNAME" in where I would like it to go) A portion of my present SQL statement is:
Select LEFT([SAMPNAME], 4) AS IUNUM, RIGHT(LEFT([SAMPNAME], 8), 3) AS SITENUM, convert(varchar,[SAMPDATE], 112) as SAMPDATE, [BDL] AS "SAMPNUM", [ANALYTE], (CASE [STARTDATE]-[SAMPDATE] WHEN 0 THEN '2' ELSE '1' END) AS METHOD, convert(varchar,[STARTDATE], 112) as STARTDATE, [FINAL], [BDL], "LABNAME", [NOTES1], [SAMPLER], [ORDNO], [UNITS]
From [CUSTOMER]
As you can see, I have already done a lot of formatting within the statement but would appreciate someone's SQL expertise to tell me if using a constant is possible or not.
Thanks,
Al

Hi,
I want to bcp data file generated by other system into a table maintened by our system. While generating the bcp data file they leave data value for id column empty (because they are not aware of the value in our system).
I want to specify a constant value for id column during bcp. Is there any way i can specify a constant value in bulk insert command? Can i specify it in format file?
Although i can read the bcp file and do transformation in front end (C#) it is time consuming. I can bcp data and then fire a update statement to update id column, this is also found to be time consuming task.
Any help would be appriciated.
Many thanks,
Rishi

hello
I want to get output like this if i give the strings:
output:
====
25813/3
25813/115
25813/208
here "25813/" must be constant and remaining part must come in orderly way.
but in MS SQL the first inserted value is getting first i.e if we give value 25813/115 is getting first.
I will show in example:
create table number(num varchar(20))
insert into number values('25818/115')
insert into number values('25818/208')
insert into number values('25818/3')
The output coming is:
color
1 25818/115
2 25818/208
3 25818/3
BUT I REQUIRE THE OUTPUT AS:
color
1 25818/3
2 25818/115
3 25818/208
since 3 comes first than others.
If anyone knows please tell.

I know this may be in the wrong forum, but I have a question. I am working on a system for a video store. I have rentals and sales for videos. I have set the ID fields for rentals and sales to be autonumbers and increment by 1, but I would like to have an S in front of sales IDs and R in front of rental IDs at all times. It is kind of like a constant in all autonumber ID fields. I want the S and R to be in every ID field, but the number to change. Thanks.

Hi, I have a small problem with my database. I've got following situation: I have a computed column, which value is base on currency rate: rent * rate. Users have to have possibility to change currency rate easily (maybe another table or constant). Is there any way to create formula, which would compute value properly, via constant or something like this? Or the easiest workaround would be load data into dataset (I'm building asp.net application - database will be very small - couple of hundreds of records) and make calculations programmatically?

Guys I want to get the date ranges instrument wise for which the instrument readings are constant.
For example for instrument 1 the readings are constant i.e 10 from 10/12/2008
till 12/12/2008 & then again it is constant from 14/12/2008 till 17/12/2008.
Same goes for instrument id 2.It is constant from 07/03/2008 till 20/03/2008.
I need to get the output like this.
StartDate EndDate Readings
10/12/2008 12/12/2008 10
14/12/2008 17/12/2008 10
17/03/2008 20/03/2008 8

I am interested in creating a query that will test if a value is the same in a particular field.
For example, if the value is "0", or "000", or "000000" or "333", "444444", I would like to extract it. Otherwise omit the value.

I am developing a report analog of a machine readable form that has to display a static number of detail rows regardless of the number returned from the database - i.e. if a record set has only three detail records, I need to display three blank rows, while if the record set has ten detail records, I need to display six detail records, print the footer, start a new page, repeat the header information, print the remaining 4 detail records and 2 blank rows, print the footer again and move on to the remaining recordset. I am new to report development and I'm having to pick it up on the fly. I can't seem to locate any documentation about how to handle this scenario.
I don't have the time or inclination to re-invent the wheel here, is there anyone who has solved this problem who can point me in the direction of some help?

Hi,
I have to compare a DATETIME Field with '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM". Which is default DATE TIME Value in SQL Server.
I did compare like
TRADEAGREEMENTFROMDATE != (DT_DBTIMESTAMP)(DATEPART("mm",(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)"1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM"))
but (DT_DBTIMESTAMP)(DATEPART("mm",(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)"1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM")) returns "12/31/1800 12:00:00:AM"
Thanks,

hi all,
when I try to do the following insert for the table test
create table test (outputs character(10), chk integer)
insert into test values('a',((select count(*) from test where outputs='a')+1))
I am getting the error
The name 'outputs' is illegal in this context. Only constants, constant expressions, or variables allowed here. Column names are illegal.
when i tried the same in DB2 it's working fine. is there anyerror in my syntax or this kind of function not allowed in SQL Server.
regards

Is there a sample way to define string constant which every stored procedure can use in SQL 2005 ? 1. In stored procedure A, there is select a1,a2,a3,a4 from mytable where usename='qaz'2. In stored procedure B, there isselect a1,a2,a3,a4 from mytable where VisitNumber>33. I hope there is a sample way to define string constant such as: constant mystring='a1,a2,a3,a4'4. So I can use this string constant both stored procedure A and stored procedure bsuch as:select mystring from mytable where usename='qaz' select mystring from mytable where VisitNumber>35. How can I do that? is there a sample way? Mnay Thanks!

I have some question and would like ask experts:
The largest table in our database eats up above 4G . we do "sp_spaceused" for this table.The length of all columns of this table ( just int, char, varchar, money ,numeric fields types) is about 200 bytes, and the table has around 1,300,000 rows, but the reserved spaced for this table is 4,800,000kb and the data space is around 4,600,00kb.
How can average each row take 3.7kb ( the total size of all columns just 200 bytes)? Any other things I need check?
Any one can give any suggestion what cause this problem? or it is normal?
Thank you very much.

Is there a practical size limit, in MB's, of a table in SQL Server 6.5?
Is there a size, that once exceeded, degrades performance signifigantly?
I am speaking of raw megabytes. The table in question will consist of only 3 int columns but has the possiblity of becoming VERY LARGE (+1,000,000 rows). I am still in the design phase and can change my strategy if this will prove to be a problem.
Thanks for any help!

hello all,
I am trying to solve this problem for quite some time.. I was wondering if I can get some help..
These questions are all abt. MSSQL 6.5
1. Is there a limit on the size of the table ?
2. Does it make sense to have more tables if the size of the row size is more that the limit set by 6.5 or i should let have more rows in a different table with duplicate entries for a particular field.
3. What is the number of rows before the performance of a query starts getting affected..
Thanks..
Sachin.
