Im writing a program in ASP language which it is using SQL Server for database.
I want to know how to create a link between fields of two tables. For example:
I have a table named: Projects containing:
p_name
status
date
member1
member2
and another table named results containing:
p_name
s_status
status1
status2
I want to create a link between field s_status of STATUS table and field status of table Projects
Users are sending data to table projects, when a user send some data to status of projects, I want this link to send data from status in project to s_status of results.
Hello. I need some help constructing a query i need to run on my database. I need to add 2 fields to every table in my databse. However, some of the tables already have1 or both these fields so i need to somehow do a check if the dield already exists. If it does not create the fields. Im using a MS SQL express 2005 server. Could anyone help me construct this. Im pretty novice at SQL. Thanks.
I have created an Access2003 project (existing data) that links to external data. First I connected to a SQL Server 2000 database. Success. Then I tried to set up a Transact SQL data connection to a legacy MDW-secured Access97 database. (A third-party VB6 application goes against it, and we don't have the source code, so we cannot upgrade it.)
The Transact SQL link tests OK but I cannot select any of the tables or queries from the list presented. However, with the same credentials, I can use these same objects in Excel 2003.
When setting up the link in Access2003, I specify JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider, I enter the MDW file on the All tab, a username and a password on the Connection tab where I browse to the MDB file, and specify Shared Deny None on the Advanced tab. When I test the connection, it tests OK ("Test connection succeeded"). Yet on the "Select the Database and Table/Cube which contains the data you want" dialog, "(Default)" appears in the grayed-out dropdown. Then, beneath that dropdown, there is a grid with Name and Description columns. The grid contains query names but the grid is not enabled. The list of queries is this table is grayed out. Neither of the scrollbars works.
BUT... if I use the SAME username and password in Excel2003, and specify the same MDW, there is no problem working with these same database objects in the legacy Access97 database. WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE WIZARD IN EXCEL THAT ALLOWS IT TO SUCCEED AND THE WIZARD IN ACCESS THAT CAUSES IT TO FAIL HERE? In Excel, the list of available providers says Microsoft Access Driver, not JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
When trying to link to an SQL table in Access 2003, the software appears to be malfunctioning.
The sequence of events is File - Get External Data - Link Tables - Files of Type: ODBC Databases().
The Problem: On two of my computers, the select data source window does not pop up, preventing me from linking to any ODBC data source.
Observations: This function has worked normally in the recent past and works on other computers running Access 2003. One difference between the computers working and non-working computers is Norton Antivirus 2006 (recent upgrade).
Has anyone experienced anything like this? What's going on?
How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu". can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.
I would like to run some queries on two tables that reside in two different database (located on the same server). The databases are both MS SQL 2000.How do I create a database link (or a table link??) so that I can create the queries from the Enterprise Manager or the Query Analyzer? Thanks a lot, Christian

Hello all, I have a quick question. Is it possible to create linked tables in MS SQL, similar to the was MS Access does?
I have a new application(x) that is going to be dependant on another application(y). I just want to link 5 or 6 tables from y into x for the purpose of not duplicating information. Is this possible?
I apologize if I seem a little lacking in the knowledge of MS SQL, I am new to it and trying to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I would like to simply link two tables that are in two different databases in the SAME server. I know that I could use the replication method (snapshot or merge) but I need a simpler method like the Access link table method.
I now tried to create a link between two tables tblStaffBookings and tblEventStaffDisciplinary by dragging from tblEventStaffDisciplinary.StaffID to tblStaff Bookings.StaffID and it gives me error as below;What do I need to do to link tblEventStaffDisciplinary.StaffID to tblStaffBookings.StaffID?
I have linked some SQL7 tables to MSAccess, then I created more tables in the SQL7 database. Trying to link them in MSAccess97 but only the old SQL7 tables show up in the list of choices that can be linked. How to get the newly created tables to show up on the list?
I am new to this forum and hope that some one can help me with this problem.
I know that in MS Access you can have a linked table in your databse such that as long a the like is not broken, it behaves similar to any other table in the database.
My problem is that I need to do the same thing for multiple databases that I have on a MS SQL Server that ALL currently have copies of the same table in common.
I wish to have a single table that they all share and have access to just link any other table that they currently have but is actually linked.
Can this be done?
And if so, then could someone please guide me in this?
My logic is that if MS Access can link tables then I could suspect that MS SQL Server should be able to also, but I could be wrong.
I have a SQL 2K database on a named instance with tables populated with data and they have no relations between them. I have a MS Access 2000 database. I have a system ODBC connection on the client computer to the SQL 2K using trusted connection. I linked the tables into MS Access 2000 to SQL 2K and I can read the data without any problem. When I try to update the data on the table, I get the message : The recordset is not updatable. I am the DBO. So I am supposed to have all rights. All the select, update, insert and DRI rights are enabled. I tried it with another user and it does not work either.
I realize this a Transact SQL forum. If there is another forum more appropriate, please let me know. I want to think about the best way to begin to set up this database with respect to the column that will link these tables together. The info below is what has been given to me as my client's list of values/info she would like to include. Here is my first pass, knowing that the ID columns need to be fixed. Thank you! http://www.hazzsoftwaresolutions.net/db_diag.htm
My manager told me to link SQL Server database tables to access so that he can access the tables in MSAccess to do his SQL queries. I am thinking of linking server but I am not sure about that. Is someone can tell me what to do and explain me how. Thanks in advance Sincerely. David
Hi All,I need to link two tables using partial word match.How can I write a SQL statement to do so?

Hi All, I have recently moved jobs. From my last job I created a holiday database for the organisation, than I copied it on a storage device. Now, in my new job I would like to use same database. But the problem is most of the tables were linked. I know I can convert linked tables to local tables and I have tried it but it asks me for the new location with the same table names. Can some one please helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp I as I am really very desperate.
I am trying to do the following: Insert n rows into A Table called EAItems. For each row that is inserted into EAItems I need to take that ItemID(PK) and insert a row into EAPackageItems. I'm inserting rows from a Table called EATemplateItems. So far I have something like this: (I have the PackageID already at the start of the query). INSERT INTO EAItems(Description, Recommendation, HeadingID)SELECT Description, Recommendation, HeadingIDFROM EATemplateItems WHERE EATemplateItems.TemplateID = @TemplateID INSERT INTO EAPackageItems(ItemID, PackageID) ....
I have no idea how to grab each ITemID as it's created, and then put it into the EAPackageItems right away.
I want to design a report in which it will contain fields derived from 2 different stored procedures. I understand a 'table' can display data from a single dataset. How can i bind these two stored procedures into a single dataset so as when i click on the table and use its property 'DataSetName', to be able to select the dataset which holds all columns from stored proc 1 and stored proc 2. How can i link multible tables ( multible stored procedures with different column names in each one) into a single dataset to feed the report?
I'm pulling data from XML into tables, but I'm unsure how to link the data after it's imported. This example has names and tasks, and I can pull the data into two tables, but I can't find any way to link the task to the appropriate person. My person and task tables populate without issue, but there's nothing I can find to link the rows together. So in this example Test 1 would go to the first two Tasks and Test 2 would go to the second two work items.
Hi I'm a newbie at SQL 2005 and I'm trying to create linked tables to our ERP system through ODBC. I can do this in MS Access or vb.net by using the ERP system's ODBC driver, but I am lost when it comes to SQL Server 2005. Thanks for any help
CREATE TABLE [Table 2] ( Id varchar, MoreData varchar )
What is the link between these two tables?
I have databases that have zero keys defined, no foreign key constraints, no unique value constraints. I cannot assume that an Identity column is the Id. The end game is be able to output that [Table 1].[TableTwoId] = [Table 2].[Id] but cannot assume that all linkage in the database will be as simple as saying "if the field name contains a table name + Id then it is the Id in that table."
Currently have written a script that will cycle through all columns and start identifying keys in singular tables based on the distinctness of the values in each column (i.e. Column1 is 99% distinct so is the unique value). It will also combine columns if the linkage is the combination of one or more columns from Table 1 = the same number of columns in Table 2. This takes a long time, and it somewhat unreliable as IDENTITY columns may seem to relate to one another when they don't.
