I have 1 table. In that table there are thousands of records. I have an ID that is autonumbered for a unique id.
What i need to do is at any given time select as many records from that table that have a certain Forein Key in it. Take all those records and copy them back into the same table but at that time i need to change some of the values including the Forien Key and the name.
Is there a bulk way to do this without having to loop? If so can you show me.
If not can someone show me the best way to get all the records and copy them back into its own talbe with a new Forien Key and Name.
Hi i am looking for some advice about sql databases and wondering if anybody can help me.
First the Background.
I am in the process of writing a payroll program that uses SQL as a data store. However rather then creating individual databases for each payroll that can be ran on the system i have created a core payroll table that generates a unique id for each payroll and then reference that thoughtout the system.
Now The Problem
The problem I now have is when I work out the final pay for the employees I want to make a quick copy of the various records just in case I need to undo the net pay calculations for adjustments to the data, it is effectively rolling back the transactions to the database but I want to be able to keep them till I decide that everything is correct.
I cant take a snapshot of the entrie database because the payrolls stored within may be in all sorts of states.
I need to keep the records for just the payroll I'm working on.
Any Ideas or Solutions !!!!!
Thanks

I have 2 tables. TABLE 1: AttachmentTypeDefaults (fields: DefaultId (pk), AttachmentType) TABLE 2: AttachmentType (fields: AttachmentTypeId (pk), CompanyId, AttachmentType)
The @CompanyId variable has to be the IDENTITY of a new record that was just INSERTed into another table just before (in this new SP.)
What I want to do is loop thru the AttachmentTypeDefaults table and INSERT every record into the AttachmentType table and use the @CompanyId for every new record. (AttachmentTypeId will create itself.)
How would I do this?
Sounds easy but I am new.
I would like it to be compatible with SQL Server 2000 also.
I tried a query like this, but I don't think I'm close... declare @MyNewIdentity int SET @MyNewIdentity = SCOPE_IDENTITY()
-- Now INSERT default attachments INSERT INTO AttachmentType(CompanyId, AttachmentType) VALUES( SELECT @MyNewIdentity AS CompanyId, AttachmentType FROM AttachmentTypeDefaults)
HELP. I've inherited some less-than-stellar dessign.
I have a table: tbMD
ObjectID uniqueidentifier not null Tag nvarchar(50) not null Data nvarchar(400) not null
This table has 1.6Billion records and has filled up the drive (nearlly 1 TB in the DB, with about 600GB in this one table).
I need to move this table to another drive with ZERO down time.
I have created a new filegroup on a second drive array and created a new table (tbMD_TEMP) and my thought was to copy all the data from tbMD into tbMD_Temp then drop tbMD, and rename tbMD_Temp.
So, anyone have any great ideas on how to get this done very quickly?
Im trying to copy details from a specific header as details of a different header (eg. all sales items from invoice #10 copied as sales items of invoice #11).
So far I have two stored procedures: 1) sp_copyDetailsOne /*Create a recordset of the desired items to be copied*/ CREATE PROCEDURE sp_copyDetailsOne @invoiceIdFrom INT, @outCrsr CURSOR VARYING OUTPUT AS SELECT itemId, itemPrice, itemDescription, itemQuantity FROM tblSalesItems WHERE (invoiceId = @invoiceIdFrom) OPEN @outCrsr
2) sp_copyDetailsTwo CREATE PROCEDURE sp_copyDetailsTwo @invoiceIdFrom INT, @invoiceIdTo INT /*Allocate a cursor variable*/ DECLARE @crsrVar CURSOR
/*Loop through the recordset and insert a new record using the new invoiceId*/ FETCH NEXT FROM @crsrVar WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN
/*Run the insert here*/ INSERT INTO tblSalesItems (invoiceId, itemId, itemPrice, itemDescription, itemQuantity) VALUES (@invoiceIdTo , 5, $25.00, N'Black T-Shirt', 30)
/*Fetch next record from cursor*/ FETCH NEXT FROM @crsrVar END
CLOSE @crsrVar DEALLOCATE @crsrVar
My question comes on the Insert of sp_copyDetailsTwo, as you can see the values are hard coded and I want them pulled from the cursor. However I don't know how to do this - do I need varables or can I access the cursor values directly in my VALUES clause? Or is this whole approach needing overhauled. Any advice is welcome.
In a job of migrating from an old database to a new one (with other structure, other server, other version) i'm copying from the source old tables and inserting into the new destination tables. The problem is that some records have inconsistencies (of any kind) and thus are not inserted due to foreign key, not null, etc validation. When a problem occurs none record is copied! and there is my question: How can i perform the copy in wich it copies the good records (without inconsistencies) and leave aside the bad records. I also want to know wich were not copied and better if in the copy process those were put in a temp table or exported to excel for further analisys o its data.
I'm using this model of "migration":
BEGIN TRY
INSERT INTO DESTINTATION_TABLE ( col_d1, col_d2, col-d3, ...)
SELECT col_s1, dbo.some_function(col_s2), col_s3 * 100, ... FROM SOURCE_TABLE join <other_table> ... where <some filters>
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH print ERROR_MESSAGE() END CATCH
(for now, with try/catch I've only get to know the error occurred, if some)
I have a parts table which has partid (GUID) column and parentpartId (GUID) column. Need to copy the records to the same table with new GUIDs for partids. How to do that? cursor or temp tables?
I have a table on an offline database having let say 2000 rows and same table on an online database with let say 3000 rows. Now I want to copy just those records (1000) from online database that are not in the offline database table. Also, both tables have same name, same schema etc.
Hi, I already submitted this type of question before and i receive reply. But unfortunately i found out errors when performing on my system.
My problem regarding to this one:
Suppose i have two databases with same tables with different records and I would like to copy the records from one database to another data and vice-versa. So that both the tables contains same number of records inside the tables.
Example:
Database1 (EmployeeTable) contains 6 records. Database2 (EmployeeTable) contains 10 records.
It should copy only those records which is not present in each other database. No duplicate records.
Before i was recommend to use Primary key, if it is not present use index.
The plant number field is a location based field that the application uses to filter/select data on for the end users. What they want to be able to do is to select a record, select another location from a dropdown list and then click a button that duplicates the master record and the detail records to the new location.
I am thinking that a stored procedure passing the JSAID and new Location number to do it, I am just not sure how to get the new ID when I go to copy the detail records.
I am using a SQL Server Agent jobs that run each morning to update the records in a table to match what they should be for that day. I built them and tested it using a test table called "testtable1". It worked fine. But when I switched over to our production table, it fails saying the table has to be decaled. What would be the difference. The production table has a "@" in front of the name, is that causing issues?

I have an application which stores records on a local SQL Express and I need to move the records to a SQL 2000 database. I have the SQL 2000 server linked in the Express Management Console (under Linked Servers). I'm trying to use a stored procedure to accomplish this, but get an error "Invalid object name 'ngtxa4-rsmsz-01.newpurchase.tblRequest'." Express uses a table named tblTRequest in the TempPurchase database, while 2000 uses a table named tblRequest in a NewPurchase database. Here is the stored procedure I'm using: USE [tempPurchase] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[InsertRequestToMain] Script Date: 07/09/2007 08:54:56 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertRequestToMain] AS BEGIN INSERT INTO [ngtxa4-rsmsz-01].newpurchase.tblRequest (fldRequestDate, fldRequiredBy, fldUserID, fldWorkAreaID, fldVendorID, fldClassID, fldEstimate, fldMemo, fldStatusID, fldStatusDate, fldSystemID, fldtmpRequestID, fldUpdateCode) SELECT fldRequestDate, fldRequiredBy, fldUserID, fldWorkAreaID, fldVendorID, fldClassID, fldEstimate, fldMemo, fldStatusID, fldStatusDate, fldSystemID, tmpRequestID, UpdateCode FROM tblTRequest WHERE (fldHold = 0) END
Any assistance with this would greatly be helpful. Thank you.

I am copying data from database to an excel file through SSIS. database is MS SQL 2005 and BIDS is also 2005.However, the job doing this task fails every time.As per investigation, the result of the query is more than 100,000 rows and we know that excel has a limit of 65000 rows of data.Is there a way of setting the limit up? or something? a better approach maybe so that everything will be copied to the excel file successfully.

Hi allI have two tables in SqlServer with Exactly Same Structure,I want to Copy all Records fromone of them to another one.I came across to "Insert....select..." statement But i have two problem 1) I don't know any thing about Columns name!!! i just know they have same structure and as far as i know , "Insert...select..." need the Column list to operate correctly, am i right? 2) these two table have One Prinary Key column with IDENTITY feature. Any Help Greatly appriciated.Regards.
I've got to copy several records (almost a 100) in a table from one instance of SQL Server 2008 R2, to another instance of SQL Server 2008 R2, but on a different server. The table structure is identical. I've searched online and found examples of doing a bulk insert into a table from a .CSV file. However I don't know of a way of exporting records to a .CSV file using a SELECT statement.
I've heard of linked servers, but at least as far as I know linking the server would require administrative privileges that I don't have on either machine.
writing the query for the following, I need to collapse the continuity. If the termdate for an ID is one day less than the effdate of the next id (for the same ID) i need to collapse the records. See below example .....how should i write the query which will give me the desired output. i.e., get min(effdate) and max(termdate) if termdate is one day less than the effdate of next record.
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022'; go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
Hi! I did: alter database mydb set single_user with rollback immediate; exec sp_detach_db @dbname='mydb', @keepfulltextindexfile='true';
then I tried to copy files to new location on other drives, same server but got >>Cannot copy <myfile>: Access is denied Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use<<
I also tried rename of file without success. I also tried with db service stoppet (not preferred) without success.
How to find out, which process locks the files? Best regards
if i have a given database (a model) and i want to copy this database in the same database instance. Is it ok to copy the mdf and ldf file and attach the files with a new database name in the same instance.
I am attempting to use the copy wizard to copy databases from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008 R2 w/ FP1.
The copy fails with a login failure to SQL Server 2005. I have a user id & password under Windows for both servers. I have a user id and password under SQL security with the called for admin security rights.
The 2005 server has two instances, 20 databases, two dozen maintenance plans, and over a hundred users. I really would like to use the utility so I don't have to recreate everything manually.
Before implementing memory based bulk copy insert with IRowsetFastLoad interface of SQL Server 2005 OLE DB provider, I want to know some considerations.
- performance : compared with T-SQL's "BULK INSERT ..." and bcp utility
- SQL Server's resource usage : when running memory based bulk copy, server resource's influence
- server side action(behavior) : when server is busy, delayed-update means IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true) method can insert right after?
- row-count : The rowcount limitation can be inserted by IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit
I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..
declare @table table ( ParentID INT, ChildID INT, Value float ) INSERT INTO @table SELECT 1,1,1.2
[code]....
This case ParentID - Child 1 ,1 & 2,2 and 3,3 records are called as parent where as null , 1 is child whoose parent is 1 similarly null,2 records are child whoose parent is 2 , .....
Now my requirement is to display parent records with value ascending and display next child records to the corresponding parent and parent records are sorted ascending
I have been trying to solve the locking problem from past couple of days. Please help mee!!
Scenario: -------------- I have a SSIS package in which 2 data flow tasks. 1st data flow task deletes records from a 5 tables and the 2nd data flow task should insert records into 1 of the five tables after the success of 1st data flow task. This scenario runs in Transacation.
The above scenrio in the 2nd data flow task hangs in runtime. It does not complete. with sp_who2 command i could see that there is an intent share lock(LK_M_IS) on the table and the status is SUSPENDED.
I dont know how to come out of this locking. Please help.
I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank FROM RPL ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).
I need a little help here..I want to transfer ONLY new records AND update any modified recordsfrom Oracle into SQL Server using DTS. How should I go about it?a) how do I use global variable to get max date.Where and what DTS task should I use to complete the job? Data DrivenQuery? Transform data task? How ? can u give me samples. Perhaps youcan email me the Demo Package as well.b) so far, what I did was,- I have datemodified field in my Oracle table so that I can comparewith datelastrun of my DTS package to get new records- records in Oracle having datemodified >Max(datelastrun), and transferto SQL Server table.Now, I am stuck as to where should I proceed - how can I transfer theserecords?Hope u can give me some lights. Thank you in advance.
I have a query similar to the following. The intent of this query is to retrieve the top 6 records meeting the specified criteria (LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status Start' OR LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status End' ) based on most recent dates. Please keep in mind that I expect to return up to 6 records for each unique LogProcessName. This could be thousands of different LogProcessNames with up to 6 records for each.
1) The table I am executing against currently is very large in size and thus takes a long time to execute against. It would seem there must be a more efficient query to get the results I am looking for? 2) CTE doesn't work on SQL 2000. I need a query that does. 3) I cannot modify the database itself in the process.
;WITH cte AS ( SELECT [LogProcessName], [LogBody], [LogDate], [LogGUID], row_number() OVER(PARTITION BY [LogProcessName] ORDER BY [LogDate] DESC) AS RN FROM [LOGTABLE] WHERE [LogTypeGUID] IN ( SELECT LogTypeGUID FROM LOGTYPE WHERE LogTypeName = 'Process Status Start' OR LogTypeName = 'Process Status End' ) ) SELECT * FROM cte WHERE RN = 1 OR RN = 2 OR RN = 3 OR RN = 4 OR RN = 5 OR RN = 6 ORDER BY [LogProcessName] DESC, [LogDate] DESC
Does anybody else have any idea that would yield the results that I am looking for and take into account items 1-3 above?
Hi~, I have 3 questions about memory based bulk copy.
1. What is the limitation count of IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true)? For example, how much insert row at below sample?(the max value of nCount) for(i=0 ; i<nCount ; i++) { pIFastLoad->InsertRow(hAccessor, (void*)(&BulkData)); }
2. In above code sample, isn't there method of inserting prepared array at once directly(BulkData array, not for loop)
3. In OLE DB memory based bulk copy, what is the equivalent of below's T-SQL bulk copy option ? BULK INSERT database_name.schema_name.table_name FROM 'data_file' WITH (ROWS_PER_BATCH = rows_per_batch, TABLOCK);
------------------------------------------------------- My solution is like this. Is it correct?
// CoCreateInstance(...); // Data source // Create session
