Creating A Temp Table From A URL
Jan 4, 2007
Hi All,
"Happy New Year!"
I need to append data to the existing Table1 from a .txt file stored like this: "http://xx0opt02.corpuk.net/ABC_REPORTS/DATA/Table1.csv"
(Columns are identical)
This .csv contains a rolling 7 days of stats. which means if it is added every Morning 6 of those Days will have been added before and must be Deleted.
I would like to schedule an automatic procedure to create a temp table in the server every day and a script removing duplicates.
I have a few questions:
*) Can I shedule from the Enterprise Console to read/create table from the above link to do this?
**) I heard I need an SQL agent. If so why and what is it?
***) Is it better to append data and then script removing Duplicates, or is it better to import into a temp table run comparison between the 2, Delete from Temp what is Common and then append whats left of the Temp to the Table1?
****) Please could someone paste a sample of CREATE TABLE from a http link like the one above?
Thanks for your help,
Gezza

When I link these together by the resourceid dates worked, but since there is no date in the workhour table I cannot even do an outer join. The only think I could think of was creating a temp table (or a view) to return a line item for every day during the timeframe given. I created a dayID for they second table, I am not sure how to proceed. I need a line item to return for every day of the month so it will look at the workhours table to see how many hours someone is supposed to work.That will allow me to bring into Crystal, group and total.

I am working with the SP tuning. I want to know clearly about the temp tables.Instead of Select * into #table, it is always better to create temp table structure and insert the data later.Is it true in the case, if the data is small? insert into #table (select colmn1, column 2 from TableA join Table B on JoinC on joinD on..If they use several joins, in that situation, which way of creating temp table would be better?

In a Stored Proc I am creating the following temp table and index:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[#ShipTo](
[Ship_to_Num] [int] NOT NULL,
[Country_key] [nvarchar](3) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_ShipTo] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[ship_to_Num] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
The stored Proc runs fine from "exec", but when you batch into a Job it gives the error that "PK_ShipTo" already exists! I even put in a drop table on #ShipTo, but the same effect.

I need to create a Stored Procedure in SQL server which passes 6 input parameters Eg:
ALTER procedure [dbo].[sp_extract_Missing_Price]
@DisplayStart datetime,
@yearStart datetime,
@quarterStart datetime,
@monthStart datetime,
@index int
as
Once I declare the attributes I need to create a Temp table and update the data in it. Creating temp table
Once I have created the Temp table following query I need to run
SELECT date FROM #tempTable
WHERE #temp.date NOT IN (SELECT date FROM mytable WHERE mytable.date IN (list-of-input-attributes) and index = @index)
The above query might return null result or a date .
In case null return output as "DataNotMissing"
In case not null return date and string as "Datamissing"

I could deploy across my environment, which is a mix of 2008R2/2012 servers, to give some information on log files. Running into a silly issue right off the bat. The table that DBCC LogInfo() conjures out of magic is different between the two. In 2012 it gained the RecoveryUnitID column. So I'm trying to write some logic to create a temp table based on which version is running. I would like to avoid a global temp table if possible. Here's what I've tried:
sp_executesql creates a table outside of the scope of my session:
DECLARE @PrVers NVARCHAR(128)
, @PrVersNum DECIMAL(10,2)
, @StageTable NVARCHAR(1024) = N''

Below are my temp tables
--DROP TABLE #Base_Resource, #Resource, #Resource_Trans;
SELECT data.*
INTO #Base_Resource
FROM (
SELECT '11A','Samsung' UNION ALL
[Code] ....
I want to loop through the data from #Base_Resource and do the follwing logic.
1. get the Resourcekey from #Base_Resource and insert into #Resource table
2. Get the SCOPE_IDENTITY(),value and insert into to
#Resource_Trans table's column(StringId,value)
I am able to do this using while loop. Is there any way to avoid the while loop to make this work?

Frenz,
I need to create tables that are session specific. i.e When I login to a database i have to create a Table that can be accessed across all the procedures and triggers. When I log out the Tables should be droped. I understand that Local Temporary (#) tables can be created in annonymus block, but I need the tables to be created during login.
Your response is highly appreciated.

I am looking for a way to create a temp column who's value would take the value of another column and prepend a value like this to it "domain". This is the Select statement I currently have:
SELECT Nalphakey,[Last Name],[First Name],[User Name],[E-mail Address],[User Name]
FROM SkywardUserProfiles
I understand how to create an Alias for an existing column, but not sure how to do what I am wanting. I also understand that the following will do the concatenation that I need, but I have only used it in an UPDATE query, and I'm not sure how to use it within a Select statement or if that's even possible:
domainName=CONCAT('domain',User Name);

Hi,
I want to create a local temporary table in execute sql task and and want to use the same in Data flow task as source table.
I follow the following steps to achieve this:
01. Created a new SSIS package
02. Create a connection string to "(local)/." server, "tempdb" database
03. Set the "RetainSameConnection" property value to "TRUE"
04. Set the "DelayValidation" to "TRUE", where ever I found this property
04. In Control Flow I added to items
a. Execute SQL Task
b. Data Flow Task
05. For "Execute SQL task" I set the connection to "tempdb"
06. I written the following query
Create table #transfer_CompaniesToProcess_tbl
(
companyID int not null
)
GO
07. In Data Flow task I added "OLE DB Source" and "OLE DB Destination"
08. In "OLE DB Source" I changed the "Data access mode:" to "SQL command"
09. In "SQL command text:" I entered "select * from #transfer_CompaniesToProcess_tbl"
10. When I clicked on the "OK" button; I ended with following error:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.

I think this is a very simple question, however, I don't know the
answer. What is the difference between a regular Temp table
and a Global Temp table? I need to create a temp table within
an sp that all users will use. I want the table recreated each
time someone accesses the sp, though, because some of the
same info may need to be inserted and I don't want any PK errors.
thanks!!

i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?
--create the procedure and insert into the temp table without creating it.
--no compilation error.
CREATE PROC testTemp
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO #tmp(dt)
SELECT GETDATE()
END
only on calling the proc does this give an execution error

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
declare @tTable(col1 int)
insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.

If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.

Hello,
I am receiving the following error:
Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition
I am trying to insert values into a temp table, using values from the table I copied the structure from, like this:
SELECT TOP 1 * INTO #tbl_User_Temp FROM tbl_User
TRUNCATE TABLE #tbl_User_Temp
INSERT INTO #tbl_User_Temp EXECUTE UserPersist_GetUserByCriteria @Gender = 'Male', @Culture = 'en-GB'
The SP UserPersist_GetByCriteria does a
"SELECT * FROM tbl_User WHERE gender = @Gender AND culture = @Culture",
so why am I receiving this error when both tables have the same
structure?
The error is being reported as coming from UserPersist_GetByCriteria on the "SELECT * FROM tbl_User" line.
Thanks,
Greg.

Below is my table structure. And I am inserting data from other temp table.
CREATE TABLE #revf (
[Cusip] [VARCHAR](50) NULL, [sponfID] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, GroupSeries [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [tran] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [AddDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [SetDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [PoolNumber] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Aggregate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Price] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [NetAmount] [VARCHAR](max) NULL,
[Code] ....
Now in a next step I am deleting the records from #revf table. Please see the delete code below
DELETE
FROM #revf
WHERE fi_gnmaid IN (
SELECT DISTINCT r2.fi_gnmaid
FROM #revf r1, #revf r2
[Code] ...
I don't want to create this #rev table so that i can avoid the delete statement. But data should not affect. Can i rewrite the above as below:
SELECT [Cusip], [sponfID], GroupSeries, [tran], [AddDate], [SetDate], [PoolNumber], [Aggregate], [Price], [NetAmount], [Interest],
[Coupon], [TradeDate], [ReversalDate], [Description], [ImportDate], MAX([fi_gnmaid]) AS Fi_GNMAID, accounttype, [IgnoreFlag], [IgnoreReason], IncludeReversals, DatasetID, [DeloitteTaxComments], [ReconciliationID],
[Code] ....
If my above statement is wrong . Where i can improve here? And actually i am getting 4 rows difference.

Hello
Is it possible to insert data into a temp table with data returned from a stored procedure joined with data from another table?
insert #MyTempTable
exec [dbo].[MyStoredProcedure] @Par1, @Par2, @Par3
JOIN dbo.OtherTable...
I'm missing something before the JOIN command. The temp table needs to know which fields need be updated.
I just can't figure it out

I want to insert the data from temp table to other table. Only condition is, it needs to sorted based on tool number and tool date. For example if we have ten records for tool number 1000, it should be order by tool number and then based on tool_dt. Both tables doesn't have any primary keys. Please find below my code. I removed all the unnecessary columns for simple understanding. INSERT INTO tool_summary (tool_nbr, tool_dt) select tool_nbr, tool_dt from #tool order by tool_nbr, tool_dt...But this query is not working as expected. Data is getting shuffled.
Actual Data
Expected Result

WE have a job that loads data from an Oralce DB into our SQL Server 2000 DB twice a day. The schedule has just changed so that now there is a possibility of having my west coast users impacted when it runs at 5 PM PST and my east coast users impacted when it runs at 7 AM EST. As a workaround, I have developed a DTS package that loads the data into temp tables instead of the real tables. IE. Oracle -> XTable_temp instead of Oracle -> XTable. The load sometimes takes about an hour to an hour and a half to load, so this solution works great, but I want to then lock the table, delete it and rename the temp table to table X. The pseudo code would be:
Begin Transaction
Lock Table XTable
Drop XTable
Alter Table XTable_temp rename to XTable
Release Lock XTable
End Transaction
Create XTable_temp
I see two issues with this solution. 1) I think if I can lock XTable that the lock would be released when the table is dropped and the XTable_temp was being renamed. 2) I can't find a command to rename a table.
Any ideas on a process that might help?
TIA,
A

I want to pass the 'inserted' table from a trigger into an SP, I think I need to do this by dumping inserted table into a temporary table and passing the temp table. However, I need to do this for many tables, and don't want to list all the column names for each table/trigger (maintenance nightmare).
Can I dump the 'inserted' table to a temp table WITHOUT specifying the column names?

I need to decide what is better to use: global temp table ( I can't use local one) or permanent table in SQL 2000 stored procedures. I extract data from linked server table and update several tables on our server.
Those procedures scheduled to run every 3 hours.
Another question: for some reasons when I used global temp table, I wasn't able to schedule multi steps with every step executing one of the stored procedures.I think global temp tables should be visible to other stored procedures, right?
Your suggestions?

Hi everyone, I'm fairly new to sql and right now I am struggling with a script. I am trying to extract data from a normal table into a temporary table, update it in the temporary table, then put it back into the normal table. I'll display my code, let me know what you think, any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks a lot.
Create table scripts (
UserID int,
UserName char(50),
ScrRan char(50),
StartTime datetime default getdate(),
EndTime datetime);
Create table errors (
ID int,
UserName char(50),
UserLogin char(50),
ErrorNumber int,
Message char(100),
TimeOfError datetime default getdate());
declare @error int
declare @msg varchar(100)
declare @startTime datetime
declare @endTime datetime
select @startTime = getDate()
SELECT *
INTO #Temp
FROM Publisher
WHERE pub_Name = 'Scene Publishing'
UPDATE #Temp
SET pub_Name = UPPER(pub_Name)
SELECT *
INTO Publisher
FROM #Temp
--Begins Error Checking Routine
select @error = @@error
IF @error <> 0
BEGIN
select @msg ='error: ' + convert(varchar(7), @error) +
''
insert into errors values (@@SPID, USER, USER_NAME(), @error,
@msg, getDate())
END
ELSE
BEGIN
select @endTime = getDate()
insert into scripts values (@@SPID, SYSTEM_USER, @startTime, @endTime)
END
select * from errors
select * from scripts
lost and loaded.

Hi All,Hope someone can help me...Im trying to highlight the advantages of using table variables asapposed to temp tables within single scope.My manager seems to believe that table variables are not advantageousbecause they reside in memory.He also seems to believe that temp tables do not use memory...Does anyone know how SQL server could read data from a temp tablewithout passing the data contained therein through memory???Is this a valid advantage/disadvantage of table variables VS temptables?
