Create Variables With Same Format In One Single Step?
Jul 23, 2005
I would need to create multiple variables with the same format for
future update, what I did is listing them separately, is there an easy
way to combine them in one step? please see query below. Thanks a lot!
--Current Query--
SELECT cast(0.0 as money) as balance_1
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_2
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_3
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_4
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_5
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_6
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_7
,cast(0.0 as money) as balance_8
,account_no
,XXX
INTO table1
FROM account
Can I do something like this? This one didn't work.
SELECT balance_1 to balance_8 (cast 0.0 as money)
,account_no
,XXX
INTO table1
FROM account
I hope the answer is as simple as the question -- but after reading all the documentation I could find (understand?) and a lot of posts here, I'm no closer to achieving the goal.
I have a Visual C# app, DAYTRACKER, developed in VS2005. It uses a database with several tables constructed using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
I want to deploy the app plus the database plus SQL Express to another machine, to be used by a single user (the administrator) with no need for network connectivity of any kind.
What I have so far is: 1. The application is successfully deployed from a CD-ROM, having used the Publish process within VS2005, and opens on the new machine -- without database connectivity, however. 2. SQL Express is successfully deployed (it deployed as a 'prerequisite' when I went through the Publish process in VS2005) 3. I manually copied the database's .mdf and .mdl files, using SQL Server Managers 'Copy Database' function, then transferred the copies to the new machine into the ..MSSQL.1MSSQLdata folder (where they appear along with the master.mdg, mastlog.ldf etc files)
Now, the DAYTRACKER application's DAYTRACKERConnectionString under 'Settings' in the VS2005 studio reads 'Data Source=DELL3;Initial Catalog=DayTracker;Integrated Security=True' (which are the appropriate parameters for the machine, DELL3, on which I wrote the program.)
The problem, of course, is that SQL Express on the new machine doesn't connect the application to the database. When I go to the 'SQL Server Configuration Manager' and go to the 'SQL Server 2005 Services' and double-click on the 'SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)' icon (the service is running) and the user is logged on using 'Local System Account'. Under the 'Service' tab the Host Name is 'MUSIC' (which is the name of the new machine I've installed the app onto -- which of course is not the name - DELL3 - that the app's connection string is expecting). Under the 'Advanced' tab, I've tried correcting the name of the Startup Parameters default .mdf and .mdl entries to ..DayTracker.mdf and ..DayTracker_log.mdl, but the server won't start up after I make the changes.
What I'm hoping for: a step-by-step way of doing this type of deployment, preferable getting it all onto one CD-ROM, and installing it on the new machine so that it all works seamlessly from the start, not requiring any 'tweaking' of the SQLServer Express settings by the end-user.
But I'll take pretty much anything that fixes the specific db connectivity problem I've described.
Hello,I am trying to update variable 'Type' (which is a pre-defined variablewithout any value in it). Is there a way to combine Step1 to Step3 intoone single Update?

I am new to SQL Server 2005 (but many years in SQL Server and .NET), and I am sort of having everything figured out for my company. However, one thing that still bothering me is that:
In the old Server 2000, you can execute a single step in a DTS package by right click the step and then click execute step.
In the new server 2005, I can only execute the whole package from the Management Tool and Edit the pack from VS 2005. Is there also a way for me to execute a single step in a SSIS package?
I want to run a SQL Agent step as a different user than the one used by the Agent service. I thought that I would create a new credential and then have a proxy use it, however there are none for just plain old SQL. This is a SQL 2014 Enterprise instance. The reason for this is that I the Windows login that is used by the Agent service is not defined as a login in the database, I don;t want to therefore add it in as a user with restrictive rights it case it impacts on other jobs. What is the easiest way of have a single job step run under a different Login?
I am running SQLServer 2000 SP3 with MDAC 2.8.On instances created via MSDE, I am unable to create the first step ina job. Instances created with SQLServer 2000, this problem does notoccur.The message I am receiving on the instances created with MSDE, themessage I get immediately upon pressing the Add button to define a stepis "Error 170: Line 1: Incorrect syntax near ''"Any help would would be greatly appreciated.Wardell Castles
I want to convert .rdl to .rdc need full steps.Actually i created .rdl report using sp sucessfully.Now i want to convert it to rdlc while doing it iam getting some authentication error and some thing else.I created rdl in 2008 and i want to change it to rdlc 2010.
I have a package that has multiple data flow tasks. At the end of a task, key data is written into a raw file (file name stored in a variable) that is used as a data source for the next task. Each task requires a success from the preceding task.
Here's the rub:
If I execute the entire package, the results of the package (number of records of certain tasks) differs significantly from when I execute each step in the package in turn (many more records e.g. 5 vs 350).
I get the feeling that the Raw file is read into memory before it is flushed by the previous task, or that the next task begins preparation tasks too early.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am running on Server 2003 64 (although the same thing happens when deployed on a Server 2003 32 machine)
Hi, I have to transport a big database table and can't read it at once with "select * from table" because the table is bigger than my system memory. Is there a way to read the table step by step? I thought it was possible with ADO and his serverside cursors but I don't now how. I need an "universal" solution that works on SQL Server 2000/2005, MySQL and Oracle.
Connecting to a networked SQL Server Box from my local machine
Open Query Analyzer from Start menu, logging in using sa account.
from the object browser i select my stored procedure (WEA_InsertClaim) - right click and select Debug.
i am prompted to enter the parameter values, which i do, auto rollback checkbox is checked - click Execute.
T-SQL Debugger opens and runs through the stored procedure.
but only buttons enabled are the "Go", "Toggle Breakpoint", "Clear All Breakpoints"
so i can set breakpoints etc. but when i select Go it will not stop at the breakpoints it just runs through the stored procedure from start to finish. giving the correct return code as its output
is there something i need to enable in order to make it stop at breakpoints??
I am stuck on creating views using the variables. I keep on getting the 'CREATE VIEW' must be the first statement in a query batch error. I understand that views need to be the first statement, but I have a lot of views that need to reference specific variables - is there any way to do this?
The code I am using is as follows:
DECLARE @view varchar(MAX) DECLARE @database varchar(30) SET @database = 'KateTEST3'
--Insert views SET @view = 'USE ['+@database+'] SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON;
CREATE view [dbo].[userssupplier] as SELECT * FROM dbo.Users WHERE (User_Type = 4.0) OR (User_Type = 5.2)' EXEC(@view)
I have an installation script and want to create a database based on some data in a table (config). Testing the script though I get a message:
Msg 170, Level 15, State 1 Line 12: Incorrect syntax near '@DBData'.
The relevant sql is:
declare @DBName varchar (40) declare @DBData varchar (40) declare @DBLog varchar (40) declare @DBSize int select @DBName = obj_txt from config where obj_nm='DBName' select @DBData = @DBName + '_Data' select @DBLog = @DBName + '_Log' select @DBSize = obj_int from config where obj_nm='DBSize' raiserror('Creating Database %s ....',0,1,@DBName) with nowait
Create Database @DBName on @DBData = @DBSize Log on @DBLog = @DBSize
I don't think there's anything wrong, apart from the fact I am using the local variables. Is this allowed on a Create Database statement? I haven't found anything in Technet that may help.
I am trying to build a Windows application using: Windows XP Pro ; VS Pro 2005, C# and SQL2005.
I have 2 database table3 as follows: eg 1) myGameRecency which contains columns : GameId (identity specification column/primary key/not null), Date (not null), [1], [2], [3], [4] , WeeksSinceDr0, WeeksSinceDr1, WeeksSinceDr2 2) myGameFrequency which contains columns : AllBallsFrequency , WeeksSinceDrawnAllBalls
Using the myGameRecencyAllBalls table --- I wish to insert a 0 into a column corresponding to a ball that has been drawn, eg if a 4 has been drawn, then a 0 will be inserted into that column. If a ball has not be drawn, then the value in that column will be a running total, signifying the number of draws since it was last drawn ( ie since a 0 was inserted into that column).
I place a 1 in the column corresponding to the number of weeks since a number has been drawn. The name of the column is therefore the concatenation of the string literal 'WeeksSinceDrawn' and the value held by the variable, @lastRowCount obtained by the lastrow_CURSOR.
I have declared a variable @colName to hold the concatenation / Set @colName = 'WeeksSinceDr' + CONVERT(nvarchar(max), @lastRowCount) and then tried to use it as follows: SET [@colName] = 1
however, I receive an error message advising me that I have an invalid column name. Is there any means of setting a column name by concatenating two variables or , a string literal and a variable ?
I'd like to be able to call different packages from a control flow. These packages will have different requirements for parameters therefore I'd like to create them dynamically.
Is this possible? Can I do it using a script task?
Is there a good step by step guide to setting up an indirect configuration? I've followed the steps in Kirk Haselden's 'Keep your packages in the dark' article 3 or 4 times this afternoon and nothing seems to work. I cannot even get the XML configuration file to work by accessing it directly. I'm using the wizard to create the file.
Just wondering if there was something else out there....
I posted this on the sql server security forums too. Here is the error that i get when i change the type of the step to ssis

This error pops up right after i change the type of the step to "SQL Server Intergration Services Package"
I have made the following configurations:
The user group (windows group) that the user belongs has the following roles in msdb :
i have made a proxy to sql server agent which has the following subsystems :
"SQL Server Integration Services Provider" the proxy is tied to the same login which has those SQLagent and dts roles in msdb database.
Im using windows authentication and the user that logs into the sql server is in the same group that i have set all of the rights.
Ps. Clearly im missing some role or right somewhere because as soon as i give the group sysadmin role then all the users in that group can create SSIS steps in the agent.
Ps. Ps. I have been living under the impression that i dont have to give sysadmin rights to people that create ssis packages and schedule then with the agent.
I have been looking at this statement for allowing access from a remote location to a specific database on my SQL Server (2005) from a client application. Is it possible to do this using this method? I see lots of examples using this to expose Web Services of DB objects, however I need the client application to be able to authenticate to and access all objects in the database. If so, could some one provide a simple example of the arguments to use? For example, which protocol arguments are valid for this? I would like to use SQL Server Authentication. Is this possible?

I'm a real novice user and I we use SQL Server. I have a table called TableLog that has the 4 columns. The first column is repeated x number of times for each value in the second column. I'd like to see this information put into a matrix where I could tell if there are any missing intersections. In addition, I need to insert a WHERE clause that says "BETWEEN 20090000 AND 20100000" for the first and second columns.
How can we create a DB for a single attribute such as ORDER DETAILS, CASH RECEIPT, TAX INVOICE having more than 2 text fields.
Also, in every form attribute such as order id is not present - in order identify the same as a primay key. So, which other attributes or fields can be considered as a primary key.
I am trying to learn Reporting Services using the title "MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Step by Step" by Stacia Misner and Hitachi Consulting, published in 2006. I am experiencing problems with some of the exercises. I got as far as Chapter 4 when I followed directions to create a SQL statement to define a query string for a dataset. Pg 80:
select * from vProductProfitability
where year = 2003 and
MonthNumberOfYear = 1
The view vProductProfitability does not exist in the tutorial database that came with the book, rs2005sbsDW. The result of this query is the basis for the entire chapter on developing basic reports and I'm being denied a learning opportunity because the view does not exist. In short, I'm stuck.
I have tried to find somewhere at Microsoft to place this question and get some answers so I can continue thru the tutorial. To no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?
BTW, the solution that came in the CD is also wrong because the query noted above is also in the solution.
We use an internal tool that can display ASP pages. I would like to use SQL Reporting Services to create reports in ASP format. The ASP page will access the database to get data. Is this possible possible with Reporting Services?
Assuming all windows servers belonging to the WSFC are on the same subnet, will the AG listener become a single failure point in system if all Application servers connect to the AG through the listener? If the answer is yes, what are the options to resolve this issue?
I have an access table that has a primary key (entitled "ID Number"), no duplicates, the field is an integer.And, importantly, the value is set to "increment".The format is "phd"000 - so it starts out phd001, phd002, and so on...How to do this in an SQL table? Can that format be done? Or is it better not to do it via SQL but in coding instead?
We are using an old version of Numara TrackIT for our helpdesk software, and it doesn't have much in the way of configurable options. There is no way to set validation or formatting on the text fields in the program.
There is a field, WO_TEXT1, Which I would like to be formatted as 6 characters, 3 integers + a period + 2 integers. The first the integers would be padded with zeros on the left, and the last 2 integers would be padded with zeros on the right.
IE, if someone enters 2, it would actually end up being 002.00 If someone enters 3.5 it would end up being 003.50 If someone enters 12.1 it would end up being 012.10 If someone enters 172.80 it would end up being 172.80
I was hoping to achieve this via an update trigger.
Below is the guts of the trigger I created, mostly as a proof of concept.
-- This update properly formats the Estimated Hours field Update t SET WO_TEXT1 = (SELECT RIGHT('000000' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(6), WO_TEXT1), 6) FROM inserted) FROM dbo.TASKS as t Where (EXISTS (SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE WOID = 24773));
I expected that this update trigger would only affect the Work Order with a WOID of 24773. Unfortunately, it updated all 21000 work orders in our system, wiping out all of the actual estimated hours that had been inserted by technicians!
Luckily I had a report that I could quick dump the 300 or so active work order's estimated hours back into the DB from (all the other Work orders are closed, and no one really cares about their estimated hours).
My question is three fold,
1) Why did my trigger update every record in the tasks table instead of just WO 24773? 2) Is using a trigger the best way of accomplishing what I'm trying to do? 3) if a trigger is the best way of accomplishing this, what should my trigger look like?
