Creating VIEWS (from Oracle To SQL Server)

Nov 20, 2006

Cordial greetings,

Again i need help with a couple of issues in migrating from Oracle to SQL Server 2005. I need the equivalent sentence in SQL Server of the following sentence:

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW IBA_MPDATOSGENERALES AS (
SELECT IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.APLAZADOREQ, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAFINALAXR, IBA_USUARIOS.NOMBREUSU
FROM IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ, IBA_USUARIOS
WHERE IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION = IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION
AND IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDREQUERIMIENTO = IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.IDREQUERIMIENTO(+)
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.USERNAME = IBA_USUARIOS.USERNAME
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.TIPOACCIONAXR = 'S'
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.CERRADAAXR = 'N'
AND NOT IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAFINALAXR IS NULL
UNION
SELECT IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.APLAZADOREQ, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAFINALAXR, IBA_USUARIOS.NOMBREUSU
FROM IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ, IBA_USUARIOS
WHERE IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION = IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION
AND IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDREQUERIMIENTO = IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.IDREQUERIMIENTO(+)
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.USERNAME = IBA_USUARIOS.USERNAME
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.TIPOACCIONAXR = 'N'
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.CERRADAAXR = 'N'
AND NOT IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAPROXEJECUCIONAXR IS NULL
UNION
SELECT IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.APLAZADOREQ, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAFINALAXR, IBA_USUARIOS.NOMBREUSU
FROM IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS, IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ, IBA_USUARIOS
WHERE IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION = IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION
AND IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDREQUERIMIENTO = IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.IDREQUERIMIENTO(+)
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.USERNAME = IBA_USUARIOS.USERNAME
AND (IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.CERRADAAXR = 'S'
OR (IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.CERRADAAXR = 'N' AND ((IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.TIPOACCIONAXR = 'N' AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAPROXEJECUCIONAXR IS NULL) OR (IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.TIPOACCIONAXR = 'S' AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.FECHAFINALAXR IS NULL))))
)

I know that (+) is for outer joins (left or right). I also know that UNION may mean FULL OUTER JOIN. but this query? The real query is a lot more complex, well actually there are just more fields needed from more tables but with this exmple is enough. The bottom line is that i need data from various tables, most of them involved in a JOIN clause. Also check out that in SQL Server doesnt exists the REPLACE word or does it?
Thank you in advance,

Transformation From 10 Views Oracle To Sql Server

Dec 19, 2006

I have to come up with a SSIS package to tranform data from oracle database to our sql server database. This oracle db is managed by a third party , I have been given 10 views from oracle so I can extarct information I need. How should I design my SSIS package? Do I have to have 10 different data flows or there is an eaier way to run my 10 select statements from these views?

Is there any article that can give me some ideas on how to design SSIS packages to extract information from oracle?

Thanks a lot

Creating A Linked Server To An Oracle Database

Aug 29, 2000

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me with linked servers.

In one of my applications running on a MSSQL database, I need to issue a select call to an Oracle database to pull information into my application.

To accomplish this,

1. the ORacle Admin has created a view of the Oracle database for me.
2. I have installed the Oracle client on the SQl server box.
3. A friend has told me that one way to accomplish this is create a linked server from SQL to use OLE/DB for Oracle to connect to the Oracle database
4. So I create the linked server successfully; create the server login sp_addlinkedsrvlogin successfully
5. When I go to query the database, I get the error below:


Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: The Oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 (or greater) client software installation.

You will be unable to use this provider until these components have been installed.]


Anybody understand this?


Thanks in advance,

Creating Views

Jun 9, 2004

Hi all,

Bit of a SQL server newbie here, I have two tables; Fish (containing Name and ID) and Fishing (containing just a concatonatted FishingID), but to relate the tables i would have to join (reference) the fields in the Fish table ie: fishname and FishID to match the other tables FishingID.

Every time i concanonate the fishname and FishID in the criteria the view doesent run but if i actually write an example FishingID in the criteria the view runs.

How do i refernce the fields in the criteria section?

Creating Views In SQL 2005

Jun 17, 2008

can anyone tell me why when I create a view if I do this in my select statement "CAST(CrewNo AS char(10)) AS CrewNo" and then save the view the above CAST statement will be changed to this "CAST(CrewNo AS char(10)) AS Expr1". After I have it saved and then go back and change it back to "CAST(CrewNo AS char(10)) AS CrewNo" it will stay that way. Just looking for a reason why this is happening as I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not.

Recently we upgraded our server from SQL 7.0 to SQL 2000. I created anew view in Enterprise Manager which pulls data from a linked server'sdatabase. When I write the view...CREATE VIEW dbo.VIEW1ASSELECT *FROM LinkedServerName.DatabaseName.dbo.TableNameand I click on the run button it changes to:CREATE VIEW dbo.VIEW1ASSELECT *From LinkedServerName.DatabaseName.dbo.TableName TableName_1I can still see the correct results, but the users can't- Once Iremove the TableName_1 they can see the results.When I tried creating a view and did not use a linked server,everything worked fine. Anyone have any answers?

Permissions For Creating Views

Jun 6, 2007

In database permissions I have granted a user rights to create a view. When she tries to save the view (even save as) it automatically wants to save it to the dbo schema and says she does not have rights to save to the dbo schema.

Two questions:

1) Can I set it up to where she can save a view to a schema which she is the owner?

2) If not, then what permissions must be set to allow her to create / save views but not be able to create, etc. other objects such as tables and stored procedures?

Creating Views With Variable No. Of Input Tables

Aug 6, 2007

Hello,
I need to create a view which will include an additional table every week of our financial year.
Example: Every week we create a table called Sales_YYYY_WW where YYYY is the Year and WW is the Week, so after the first week we have the table Sales_2007_01 and after the second week we have Sales_2007_01 and Sales_2007_02 etc.. These tables are created evey week and don't exist at the start of the financial year.
I'd like to create a view at the beginning of each year to encompass each table evey week as it is created. If all of the tables were there at the start of the year it would be simple:
CREATE VIEW VIEW_SALES_2007
AS
SELECT * from Sales_2007_01
UNION ALL
SELECT * from Sales_2007_02
etc.
But I don't know how to achieve this when the tables don't already exist. I don't want to have to edit the view each week to add in the new table.

Can anyone out there help me?

Creating A Single View From 2 Existing Views

Aug 9, 2007

I have 2 views which contain the following fields:
EVENT,
WEEK,
SUBSCRIPTION,
QTY,
GROSS_AMOUNT,
SEASON

The 2 views differ by SEASON. I'm attempting to combine the 2 views in to a single view or table grouping by EVENT, WEEK and SUBSCRIPTION:

EVENT,
WEEK,
SUBSCRIPTION,
Q6 (qty of season 1),
A6 (gross_amount of season 1),
Q7 (qty of season 2),
A7 (gross_amount of season 2)


Below is my select command:

------

SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT
dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT,
SUM(dbo.vw_SEASON06.QTY) AS Q6, SUM(dbo.vw_SEASON06.GROSS_AMOUNT) AS A6,
SUM(dbo.vw_SEASON07.QTY) AS Q7, SUM(dbo.vw_SEASON07.GROSS_AMOUNT) AS A7,
dbo.vw_SEASON06.WEEK,
dbo.vw_SEASON06.SUBSCRIPTION

FROM dbo.vw_SEASON06 FULL OUTER JOIN
dbo.vw_SEASON07 ON dbo.vw_SEASON06.WEEK = dbo.vw_SEASON07.WEEK AND
dbo.vw_SEASON06.SUBSCRIPTION= dbo.vw_SEASON07.SUBSCRIPTION AND
dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT = dbo.vw_SEASON07.EVENT

GROUP BY
dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT,
dbo.vw_SEASON06.WEEK,
dbo.vw_SEASON06.SUBSCRIPTION

ORDER BY
dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT

-----

This creates the view but there are some issues. If an 'EVENT' exists in dbo.vw_SEASON07.EVENT and doesn't exist in dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT the value of the field 'EVENT' is set to NULL because the 'EVENT' name is returned from dbo.vw_SEASON06.EVENT. The same issue exists for 'SUBSCRIPTIONS' and 'WEEK'.

How can I create a single view/table that will include all the data from these 2 views without the NULL values in EVENT or SUBSCRIPTION?

Any help is appreciated!

Creating Indexed Views For Full Text Search

Nov 30, 2007

Hi,

I have problem that Im sure others must have had before so I am looking for advice on the best way to solve it. I have a table of text information tbl_base which is related to another table containing tags, which can contain several rows for each row in base.

I want to create an indexed view of the data for full text search. I would like to select all the tags related to a particular row in the tbl_base together into a string and join it to the end of the tbl_base table so they can be indexed along with the tbl_base data for full text indexing. Ive tried several methods but I am never able to make an index on my view because it say I cant use COALESCE, or Cursors.

Sample data here :

tbl_base

id | Text
------------------------
1 | BLah blah
2 | Dum de dum
3 | HAr HAr


tbl_base_tags

tagID | base_id | TagText
--------------------------
1 | 1 | first
2 | 1 | second
3 | 1 | third
4 | 2 | fourth


The view I want to end up with will look like this :

vw_tables

base_id | Text | Tags
-------------------------------------
1 | Blah blah | first second third
2 | dum de dum | fourth

How can I achieve this? Do I have to index all the tables seperately?

Error Creating Report Model Based Upon Oracle Database

May 29, 2006

In MS Visual Studio, when creating a new Report Model Project, after defining a datasource to an Oracle database (and successfully testing it), and a simple datasource view (1 table), when I click "Run" in Report Model Wizard, I receive the following error:
"ORA-02179: valid options: ISOLATION LEVEL { SERIALIZABLE | READ COMMITTED }"

It does not appear that one can create Report Models from an Oracle database (since the SQL being used to query the Oracle database cannot be edited and contains syntax errors?). Is this the case?

Thank you.

Trouble With: Linked Server To Oracle Using OraOLEDB.ORacle Provider

Hi--

 

I am running SQL Server 2005 on Win2k3:

I have the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider installed to the (C:oraclexe) directory.

I am having problems querying from linked oracle server.  When i setup oracle as a linked server and purposely enter an incorrect password the query i run tells me i have an incorrect password.   So it at least knows that.  when i set the correct password and run a query I get this error:

(i replaced the real server name with "someServer".)

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer".

 

This is how I set up my Linked server:

Provider: "Oracle Provider for OLE DB"

Product Name: SomeServer

Data Source: SomeServer

Provider String:  "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=SomeServer;User Id=MyLogin;Password=MyPassword"

 

 

The query I run is:

Select * from [Someserver].[schema or database]..[tbl_name]

 

Any help???  What am i missing?

Are Embedded Views (Views Within Views...) Evil And If So Why?

Apr 3, 2006

Fellow database developers,I would like to draw on your experience with views. I have a databasethat includes many views. Sometimes, views contains other views, andthose views in turn may contain views. In fact, I have some views inmy database that are a product of nested views of up to 6 levels deep!The reason we did this was.1. Object-oriented in nature. Makes it easy to work with them.2. Changing an underlying view (adding new fields, removing etc),automatically the higher up views inherit this new information. Thismake maintenance very easy.3. These nested views are only ever used for the reporting side of ourapplication, not for the day-to-day database use by the application.We use Crystal Reports and Crystal is smart enough (can't believe Ijust said that about Crystal) to only pull back the fields that arebeing accessed by the report. In other words, Crystal will issue aSelect field1, field2, field3 from ReportingView Where .... eventhough "ReportingView" contains a long list of fields.Problems I can see.1. Parent views generally use "Select * From childview". This meansthat we have to execute a "sp_refreshview" command against all viewswhenever child views are altered.2. Parent views return a lot of information that isn't necessarilyused.3. Makes it harder to track down exactly where the information iscoming from. You have to drill right through to the child view to seethe raw table joins etc.Does anyone have any comments on this database design? I would love tohear your opinions and tales from the trenches.Best regards,Rod.

Recompiling Views That Reference Other Views

Jun 28, 2007

Hello.

Newbie here. I've only been using SQL for about a year now and have some minor questions about sql objects that reference other objects.



We have some views which reference other views in the joins. I will call one the primary view and the one being referenced in the joins as the secondary view.

Recently we made changes to the secondary view.

After which the primary views which referenced it would not work because of this change and had to be 'refreshed' by using drop/create scripts which essentially just dropped it and recreated the exact same view. I do not recall the exact error message that was returned other than it seemed to suggest that it could no longer see the secondary view since it had been changed. Nothing in the primary view was changed in any way, just the secondary.



Some here where I work have suggested off hand that this was a recompile of the primary view because the contents of the secondary changed.

My questions are:

1. Exactly why did this happen and is there a proper name for it when it does?

2. The same problem does not seem to occur when we have stored procedures referencing views in the joins which had just been changed. Why is that?



Thanks for any help on the matter. I greatly appreciate it.

Views And Sql Server

Jan 8, 2005

Hi,

I've been using stored procedures to do queries including inner joins etc. I have always known about views but don't understand why they are used, what is there purpose, they seem the same as sql queries, is that true?
Is it more effiicient to use views rather than stored procedures to do your queries?

Really I just want to know why I would ever want to use views instead of stored procedures to do my queries?

Thanks in advance.

I would like to know if its possible to create a view of a table residing in a SQL server which is not the one in which we r currently working in
Desc:
1) Say i have 2 SQL servers( different Boxes) A & B
I am working in ' B ', can i have a view of a table residing in SQL server 'A' in my system( Server 'B')
2) Leaving out the network uncertainities, will such a setup give any performance issue when the view is for a table that captures daily transactions running into several
thousands of records
3) Is ther any other Alternative to access tables in another SQL sever without going for Views?

Plz find out and reply ASAP.

For most of my queries to Oracle I can cast the columns to get rid of the error (CAST x AS DECIMAL(10) etc), but this does not work for:



1) Union

I have a select like "SELECT NVL(myColumn, 0) .... FROM myTable UNION SELECT 0 AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL"

Even if I cast the columns in both selects (SELECT CAST(NVL(myColumn, 0) AS DECIMAL(10, 0) .... UNION SELECT CAST(0 AS DECIMAL(10, 0)) AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL) I still get the error above.



2) SQL command from variable

The select basically looks like this:

"SELECT Column1, Column2, ... FROM myTable WHERE Updated BETWEEN User::LastLoad AND User::CurrentLoad"

Again, even if I cast all columns (like in the union), I still get the same error.



Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
