Constraint Vs Trigger?
Aug 8, 2007
Hello,
I have a table that allows a user (from another table) to belong to multiple organizations. Part of this table's schema is a column that will be used to allow the user to indicate which organization that they belong to will be the primary one. A user can only have one PRIMARY organization. I was going to handle via an Insert or Update Trigger...checking to see if the userid already a Primary. However, now I am wondering if a Constraint would be the way to go? I admit though, I don't know enough about Constraints to know how this would work.
The table's schema is like:
UserOrg
UserOrgID (an identity column)
UserID (foreign key to the user's table)
Org (the name of the org)
PrimaryOrg (bit column)
Thanks for any help.
- Will.

I have 2 tables
Primary_Table (Key, ........)
Foreign_Table (Key_1, Key_2, ............)
I want this:
If I update the Key in Primary_Table then
Key_1 is Update where Key_1 = Key
AND
If I update the Key in Primary_Table then
Key_2 is Update where Key_2 = Key
I can not use CONSTRAINT because I can not use ON UPDATE CASCADE for this case (It not possible to use 2 CONSTRAINT WITH ON UPDATE CASCADE).
I WANT TO USE TRIGGERS
This is my trigger (but I am not sure it is the best way ?)
CREATE TRIGGER Test ON [Primary_table]
FOR UPDATE
AS
Declare @NewValue varchar(30)
Declare @OldValue varchar(30)
SET @NewValue = (Select Key From Inserted)
SET @OldValue = (Select Key From Deleted)
UPDATE [Foreign_Table]
SET [Foreign_Table].[Key_1] = @NewValue
FROM [Foreign_Table] WHERE [Key_1] = @OldValue
UPDATE [Foreign_Table]
SET [Foreign_Table].[Key_2] = @NewValue
FROM [Foreign_Table] WHERE [Key_2] = @OldValue
Sorry for my english.
Please consider I am a beginner

Hi Guys,
I am not sure if this is the correct forum but i thought i'd ask and see if you can help me!
I have a table with 2 columns:
1st column will house numbers from 1 to 50
2nd column will be date
I want the users to be able to pick a number for certain date and enter it to the table, however I don't want the system to allow the same number for the same date. I was looking at constraints and triggers but can't make out what exactly i should use and how. The Insert will be initiated from ASP page on our intranet. Please help!!!
Regards

Hello all
The majority of my database experience comes from ORACLE and i am trying to use some functionality that i have already used in Oracle into a project i am working on in MSDE.
I want to create a trigger that uses a DML constraint that will prevent a tenants from being inserted into a house if the bedroom count is less or equal to the number of tenants currently in the house.
The oracle code is below
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Tenant_room_check
BEFORE INSERT or update of tenant_ID ON Tenant
FOR each row
as (new.tenant_ID is not null)
DECLARE
Tenant_count NUMBER;
Bedroom_count NUMBER;
BEGIN
select count(Tenant_ID) as Tenant_count
from Tenant
where tenant_ID = :new.tenant_ID
and House_ID = 1
AND Tenant_status = 1;
select count(ROOM_ID) as bedroom_count
from Room
where Room_Name = 'Bedroom'
and House_ID = 1
if (Tenant_count > Bedroom_count)
then raise_application_error(-20601,
'you cannot have more tenants than the number of bedrooms in a student house');
END IF;
END;
/
Ideally I would like to pass the HOUSE_ID and the TENANT_ID from my application using @variablename
I have been looking over forums and in books but i am getting all confused over the syntax to use.
Please Help
Many Thanks

I am using SQL server 2000. I have a parent table 'MimeTypes' with primary key 'mimetype'. This is referenced as foreign key in table 'AssetTypes' as column 'BaseMimeType'.
The referential constraint is simple :
alter table AssetTypes
add constraint FK_ASSETTYPES_REF_BASEMIMETYPE foreign key (BaseMimeType)
references MimeTypes (MimeType) on update no action on delete no action;
I have FOR Update trigger on parent table ('MimeTypes') which is as follows:
CREATE TRIGGER trg_MimeTypes_update ON MimeTypes FOR UPDATE
AS
IF UPDATE(MimeType)
BEGIN
UPDATE AssetTypes
SET BaseMimeType = (select MimeType from inserted)
FROM AssetTypes as A
JOIN deleted as d on A.BaseMimeType = d.MimeType
END;
********
The problem is simple. I want to execute a update query on parent table ('MimeTypes') which modifies 'mimetype' value referenced by child. I dont want to include cascade option in constraint.
When such query is executed error comes as : UPDATE statement conflicted with COLUMN REFERENCE constraint 'FK_ASSETTYPES_REF_BASEMIMETYPE'. The conflict occurred in database 'default.db', table 'AssetTypes', column 'BaseMimeType'.
*****
Is there any way to do this?

say i have a query like:
UPDATE table SET status = 1 WHERE id = 1000
if i have a trigger on that table, is there anyway i can get the id ?
i know i can get the status by SELECT status FROM Inserted, but anyway to get what the id is? or would i just have to update the id as well?
thanks

I want to incorporate a Check constraint within a trigger, based on this but im struggling with the coding.Assuming that is an Alphanumeric field you should be checking what value is in the alphanumeric column from inserted, comparing it with whatever is in the AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl to see if there’s a duplicate and then raising the error...This is my Trigger:
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[DUPLICATES]
ON [dbo].[AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl]
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @Alphanumericcol VARCHAR (750)
-- This trigger has been created to check that duplicate rows are not inserted into table.
-- Check if row exists
SELECT @Alphanumericcol
FROM Inserted i, AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl t
[code]....

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the order in which uniqueness constraints on indexes are enforced vs. when triggers are executed ? I have a unique constraint on an index and a trigger on the column on which the same index has been created. When a row is inserted, the trigger checks if the value for that column already exists in the table - if not, it inserts the row as is, else it gets the max() val of the column (based on another key column) and increments it by one, then does the insert. Creating an index across the two works fine, but if I set the Unique Values property for the index, subsequent inserts bomb out - yet there aren't any duplicates in the final table, as the trigger ensures this. Anyone got any ideas on this? My deduction is that the uniqueness constraint gets enforced before the trigger gets executed, but at the same time this *seems* illogical, as the row has not been inserted into the table at the point where the trigger is executed.
Regards,
Jon Reade.

Hi.
I was wondering how I should go about doing this thing. I need to put a value in a column that is based on values on other columns in the same row.
When this statement executes I need to put a value in Col3.
insert into myTable(Col1, Col2)
values(25, -14)
Something like so:
if(Col1 >0 AND Col2 <0)
set Col3 = Col1 - Col2
else
set Col3 = Col1;
I don't now quite how to solve this. I am really going to need this value in a column. Calculating the value at retrieval is not on option...
I appreciate all help. I'm using SQL Server 2005.
Thanks!

Hi there,
I am looking for a way to define a trigger that is a replacement for a multi-column foreign key.
I know how to a convert a single-column foreign key constraint into a trigger (i.e., to resolve diamond-structured references).
CREATE TABLE parent_tab
(
col_a INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk PRIMARY KEY(col_a)
);
CREATE TABLE child_tab
(
col_x INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fk FOREIGN KEY (col_x) REFERENCES parent_tab(col_a) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
The conversion would remove the foreign key definition and add this trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted))
END;
Unfortunately, now I need to resolve a situation where there is involved a multi-column foreign key.
CREATE TABLE parent_tab
(
col_a INTEGER NOT NULL,
col_b INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk PRIMARY KEY(col_a, col_b)
);
CREATE TABLE child_tab
(
col_x INTEGER NOT NULL,
col_y INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fk FOREIGN KEY (col_x, col_y) REFERENCES parent_tab(col_a, col_b) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
This does not work, because the temporary table "deleted" might contain more than one row. How do I make sure that the values belong to the same row?
-- incorrect trigger, might delete too many rows
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted) AND child_tab.col_y IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted) AND parent_tab.col_b IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted))
END;
-- some magic needed :-)
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted AS t1) AND child_tab.col_y IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted AS t2) AND row_id(t1) = row_id(t2))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted AS t1) AND parent_tab.col_b IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted AS t2) AND row_id(t1) = row_id(t2))
END;
I know the trigger definition above is ***... but I hope that it helps to make clear what I need.
Btw., I use SQL Server 2005.
Thanks in advance,
slowjoe

Hello all.
First of all, I've been a reader of swynk.com for quite sometime now, and I'd like to say 'thank you' to everyone who contributes.
Today, I'm the town moron.. haha I'm having issues with column level constraints. I have a varchar(50) where I want to keep *,=,#,/, .. etc, OUT OF the value input. I don't want to strip them. I simply want for sql to throw an error if the insert contains those (and other characters). The only characters that I want in the column are A-Z and 0-9. However, it's not a set number of characters per insert. It always varies... There has to be an easier way to do this than creating a constraint for every possibilty... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
tia,
Jeremy

Hi, all.
I am trying to create table with following SQL script:
Code Snippet
create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) constraint NN_Prj_Name not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
When I execute this script I get following error message:
Error source: SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider
Error message: Named Constraint is not supported for this type of constraint. [ Constraint Name = NN_Prj_Name ]
I looked in the SQL Server Books Online and saw following:
CREATE TABLE (SQL Server Compact)
...
< column_constraint > ::= [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ] { [ NULL | NOT NULL ] | [ PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE ] | REFERENCES ref_table [ ( ref_column ) ] [ ON DELETE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ] [ ON UPDATE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ]
As I understand according to documentation named constraints should be supported, however error message says opposite. I can rephrase SQL script by removing named constraint.
Code Snippet
create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
This script executes correctly, however I want named constraints and this does not satisfy me.

We are using SQL CE 3.5 on tablet PCs, that synchs with our host SQL 2005 Server using Microsoft Synchronization Services. On the tablets, when inserting a record, we get the following error:
A duplicate value cannot be inserted into a unique index. [ Table name = refRegTitle,Constraint name = PK_refRegTitle
But the only PK on this table is RegTitleID.
The table structure is:
[RegTitleID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[RegTitleNumber] [int] NOT NULL,
[RegTitleDescription] [varchar](200) NOT NULL,
[FacilityTypeID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Active] [bit] NOT NULL,
The problem occurs when a Title Number is inserted and a record with that number already exists. There is no unique constraint on Title Number.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hey,
I'm new to this whole SQL Server 2005 thing as well as database design and I've read up on various ways I can integrate business constraints into my database. I'm not sure which way applies to me, but I could use a helping hand in the right direction.
A quick explanation of the various tables I'm dealing with:
WBS - the Work Breakdown Structure, for example: A - Widget 1, AA - Widget 1 Subsystem 1, and etc.
Impacts - the Risk or Opportunity impacts for the weights of a part/assembly. (See Assemblies have Impacts below)
Allocations - the review of the product in question, say Widget 1, in terms of various weight totals, including all parts. Example - September allocation, Initial Demo allocation, etc. Mostly used for weight history and trending
Parts - There are hundreds of Parts which will eventually lead to thousands. Each part has a WBS element. [Seems redundant, but parts are managed in-house, and WBS elements are cross-company and issued by the Government]
Parts have Allocations - For weight history and trending (see Allocations). Example, Nut 17 can have a September 1st allocation, a September 5th allocation, etc.
Assemblies - Parts are assemblies by themselves and can belong to multiple assemblies. Now, there can be multiple parts on a product, say, an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), and so those parts can belong to a higher "assembly" [For example, there can be 3 Nut 17's (lower assembly) on Widget 1 Subsystem 2 (higher assembly) and 4 more on Widget 1 Subsystem 5, etc.]. What I'm concerned about is ensuring that the weight roll-ups are accurate for all of the assemblies.
Assemblies have Impacts - There is a risk and opportunity impact setup modeled into this design to allow for a risk or opportunity to be marked on a per-assembly level. That's all this table represents.
A part is allocated a weight and then assigned to an assembly. The Assemblies table holds this hierarchical information - the lower assembly and the higher one, both of which are Parts entries in the [Parts have Allocations] table.
Therefore, to ensure proper weight roll ups in the [Parts have Allocations] table on a per part-basis, I would like to check for any inserts, updates, deletes on both the [Parts have Allocations] table as well as the [Assemblies] table and then re-calculate the weight roll up for every assembly. Now, I'm not sure if this is a huge performance hog, but I do need to keep all the information as up-to-date and as accurate as possible. As such, I'm not sure which method is even correct, although it seems an AFTER DML trigger is in order (from what I've gathered thus far). Keep in mind, this trigger needs to go through and check every WBS or Part and then go through and check all of it's associated assemblies and then ensure the weights are correct by re-summing the weights listed.
If you need the design or create script (table layout), please let me know.
Thanks.

as
insert into b(ID)

When a row gets modified and it invokes a trigger, we would like to beable to update the row that was modified inside the trigger. This is(basically) how we are doing it now:CREATE TRIGGER trTBL ON TBLFOR UPDATE, INSERT, DELETEasupdate TBLset fld = 'value'from inserted, TBLwhere inserted.id= TBL.id....This work fine but it seems like it could be optimized. Clearly we arehaving to scan the entire table again to update the row. But shouldn'tthe trigger already know which row invoked it. Do we have to scan thetable again for this row or is their some syntax that allows us toupdate the row that invoked the trigger. If not, why. It seems likethis would be a fairly common task. Thanks.

Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this question.
I run an update statement like "Update mytable set status='S' " on the SQL 2005 management Studio.
When I run "select * from mytable" for a few seconds all status = "S". After a few seconds all status turn to "H".
This is a behaviour when you have an update trigger for the table. But I don't see any triggers under this table.
What else would cause the database automatically change my update?
Could there be any other place I should look for an update trigger on this table?
Thanks,

Hi all in .net I've created an application that allows creation of triggers, i also want to allow the deletion of triggers.
The trigger name is kept in a table, and apon deleting the record i want to use the field name to delete the trigger
I have the following Trigger
the error is at
DROP TRIGGER @DeleteTrigger
I'm guessing it dosen't like the trigger name being a variable instead of a static name
how do i get around this?
thanks in advance

Hi,
I have a trigger set on TABLE1 so that any update to this column should set off trigger to write to the AUDIT log table, it works fine otherwise but not the very first time when table1 has null in the column. if i comment out
and i.req_fname <> d.req_fname from the where clause then it works fine the first time too. Seems like null value of the column is messing things up
Any thoughts?
Here is my t-sql
Insert into dbo.AUDIT (audit_req, audit_new_value, audit_field, audit_user)
select i.req_guid, i.req_fname, 'req_fname', IsNull(i.req_last_update_user,@default_user) as username from inserted i, deleted d
where i.req_guid = d.req_guid
and i.req_fname <> d.req_fname
Thanks,
leo

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to do this.
For each row, only one out of two columns(id1,id2) should be populated. So if the id1 column is already populated and the application tries to fill in something for id2 then we just simply don't want to allow that and vice versa.
I am thinking triggers is the way to go. What do you think?
thanks

Which is the preferred method Rule, Check Constraint or Trigger?
I want to set a column to todays date when the column is = "T"
else when "F" set it to a future date. Each time there is a insertion into
the table.

I have a varchar field in a table.I want to restrict the entries in that field as "yes" or "no" nothing else.No record will be allowed for this field without yes or no.My question is is it possible without using any trigger for the table?I want to do it with the help of a constraint.

When I see desing table option in enterprise manager of a table I don't see any constraints, but when I extract ddl I can see all 6 of them. They are all unique constraints not the check constraints. Is this normal. I am new to SQL Server and would appreciate some explanation.
Thanks

Hi, i want to put a contraint on a table which much check agains two values in the same column for the same member.
For example, i don't want a male to get information based on breast cancer, and i don't want a female to get information based on prostate cancer.
I have included some sample data. Just copy and paste.
Code Block
DECLARE @MemberLookupValues TABLE (OptionID INT, ValueID INT, Description VARCHAR(20))
INSERT @MemberLookupValues VALUES (3, 10, 'Male')
INSERT @MemberLookupValues VALUES (3, 11, 'Female')
INSERT @MemberLookupValues VALUES (7, 69, 'Prostate Cancer')
INSERT @MemberLookupValues VALUES (7, 70, 'Breast Cancer')
DECLARE @MemberValues TABLE (MemberID INT, OptionID INT, ValueID INT)
INSERT @MemberValues VALUES (1, 3, 10)
INSERT @MemberValues VALUES (1, 7, 69)
INSERT @MemberValues VALUES (1, 7, 70)
INSERT @MemberValues VALUES (2, 3, 11)
INSERT @MemberValues VALUES (2, 7, 69)
SELECT * FROM @MemberLookupValues
SELECT * FROM @MemberValues
I've highlighted the values that must be stopped.
So the basic check would be, IF OptionID = 3 AND ValueID = 10 then it must not allow you to insert the values OptionID = 7 AND ValueID = 70
I hope that makes sense.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, if you need any more informaiton then just ask,
Kind Regards
