I have a form with a drop down box so the user can select a quote.. When a quote is selected i need to populate a table of all the records associated with the quote id. I need the table to be created in such a way that the user can add new rows, delete rows and edit the data. Then all of the changes need to be written back to the database. Whats the most efficient/best way of doing this and if you have any ideas can you explain them as thoroughly as possible! I'm currently upgrading an access database to a sql server back end with an asp.net client and it's taking me a while to get to grips with all the changes!Thanks in advance,Chris
I am attempting to create a stored procedure that will launch at report runtime to summarize data in a table into a table that will reflect period data using an array type field. I know how to execute one line but I am not sure how to run the script so that it not only summarizes the data below but also creates and drops the table.
I am trying to create a table that holds info about a user; with the usual columns for firstName, lastName, etc.... no problem creating the table or it's columns, but how can I "restrict" the values of my State column in the 'users' table so that it only accepts values from the 'states' table?
If I want to create an SQL data table on the server, I go to Server Explorer and make a small table with the corerct columns. Then I add rows programatically as needed from the Application I'm working with.
It would suit me, for a current job, to be able to create the table itself programatically.
I don't know how to do this. Can it be done ? If so, could someone give me a starter, please ? Four cols with a key in the first.
hi, i'm trying to create a table and populate it with data from another database residing on the same server. i've done this on oracle using tables within the same database and am just making a first effort with the added twist of a different database. this is what i've been doing so far...
CREATE TABLE facility_dimension ( fac_id INT IDENTITY(1,1), tri_fac_id CHAR(17), fac_nameVARCHAR(100), street VARCHAR(100), city VARCHAR(100), county VARCHAR(50), state VARCHAR(4), longitude REAL, latitude REAL, PRIMARY KEY(fac_id) ) SELECT tri_facility_id, facility_name, street_address, city_name, county_name, state_abbr, fac_latitude, fac_longitude FROM TRI_2004.form_1;
....where TRI_2004 is the other database and form_1 is the table. the result is creation of the new table and then the output of the secondary query. i'm assuming this can even be done but if it can't that would be helpful to know as well. thanks in advance!
Hi, I'm having some difficulty creating the SQL Statement for getting some data from a table: I have the following table of data __User___Votes___Month __A_______14______2__A_______12______3__A_______17______4__A_______11______5 __B_______19______2__B_______12______3__B_______15______4
I want to beable to pull out the total number of votes a user has had over a period of months. eg Total up each users users votes for months 4 and 5 that would give: __User____TotalVotes ___A________28___B________15 An added complecation is that user B does not have any data for month 5 Any help or pointers would be fanstatic Many thanks
I am extracting source data which is in txt fille to OLE DB destination. But data of each day I want to save in different staging table. For Eg; tblProduct20081206, tblProduct20081207. How can it be done. I have seen lots of posting and script when destination is Txt. I want to use same table for staging but want to create different table for each day with adding date extension.
Hi all, I'm trying to create a temporary table with one of the columns with a datetime datatype. Sql server 7.0 is giving me an error: Error 195 date is not a recognized function name. Example of my create table looks something like this: create table #temp_table(column_one int, column_two(15,2), Column_three datetime)
I am trying to create a sample table in the Azure SQL Data warehouse but its giving me a syntax error Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'CLUSTERED'.

I have table having around 100 million rows.Everyday we have an ETL process in which table will be trucnated and relaoded. Will creating a partition on the table increase the inserting speed?
I have 1 table with a huge amount of data that I recive from someone else in a flat file format. I want to be able to filter through that data and scrub it and find out the good data and bad data from it.
I'm scrubbing the data using different stored procs that i've created and through a web interface that the user can pick which records they wish to create.
If I were to create a new table for clean records, what is the syntax to keep Appending to that table through the data that i'm obtainig via the stored procs that i've created.
Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appriciated in advance
I am trying to create a clustered index on a View of a table that has an xml datatype. This indexing ran for two days and still did not complete. I tried to leave it running while continuing to use the database, but the SELECT statements where executing too slowly and the DML statements where Timing out. I there a way to control the server/cpu resources used by an indexing process. How can I determine the completion percentage or the indexing process. How can I make indexing the view with the xml data type take less time?
I am trying to design a SSIS DTS package that imports an Excel named range (acts as a table) into a SQL Server 2005 database table. The direct import (using the import/export wizard) works fine, but I need to use a DTS package with a data transformation step. The DTS fails to create/replace/or update the SQL Server table. Suggestions?
Right now I am writing to a sql table during a process where the end user starts entering the contents for a file that is going to be generated once he finishes entering the data, but the problem is that if more than one user is doing the same process the data would get mixed up. To avoid this I thought in creating a temporary table (its name will consist of a string and the current date time).
I would like to see any tutorial about creating and working with temp tables. Or if you have any suggestions, I will appreciate them. Thanks
I have used to following Microsoft supplied code to create a link to SQL server from access: (Is there a way to use a DSN-less connection at comment below? If not is there a way to create a DSN using code?
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub ClientServerX3() Dim dbsCurrent as Database Dim tdRoy as TableDef Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb Set tdfRoy = dbsCurrent.CreateTableDef("Roy")
When creating a table I want to be able to specify not only the db to create it on but also which server to create it on. I have two servers that are linked together, I can view all data without issue.
Doing further research it looks like with the create table command you can tell it the new table name and the database but you can't tell it which server to use. Is there a way of doing this?
Example :
CREATE TABLE LAPTOP.database.dbo.tableName (a INT) gives the following error:
The object name 'LAPTOP.database.dbo.' contains more than the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 2.
I am new to linked servers so basically my question is, how do you point to a server within sql before I execute the create table command?
AA!I am having problems on creating table through Enterprise Manager. Itgives me Error 1038 i.e. is as followsUnexpected ErrorODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot useempty objector column names. Use a single space if necessary.
Hi All,I want to use MS sql server edition 2000. I have installed the server. Now iwant to create the database on this server with tables and triggers. Canplease someone suggest me how to do this ?Thanks a lot,Dinesh
I need to ensure some naming standards to users while creating tables.
All table name should be in same pattern
(ie., ) TeamName_EmpId_tablename
I need a way to restrict user to follow the naming standard. If any user tries to create table without the above naming standard system should not allow.
I am having trouble figuring out why the following code throws an error:
declare @cols nvarchar(50), @stmt nvarchar(max) select @cols = ('[' + W.FKStoreID + ']') from (select distinct FKStoreID from VW_PC_T) as W select @stmt = ' select *
[Code] ...
The issue that I am having is:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 4 Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '[' to data type int.
I know that I have to use the [ ] in order to run the dynamic sql. I am not sure what is failing and why as the syntax seems to be clean to me (obviously it is not).
This EXECUTES with no error or warning message.However, if I change this to CREATE the PK in an ALTER TABLE statement, I get the (expected by me) error:
==> Msg 8111, Level 16, State 1, Line 17 Cannot define PRIMARY KEY constraint on nullable column in table '#ABC'.
==> Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 17 Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
(note: As the #ABC table is an actual copy of a few of the columns in a "permanent" table, I will likely change the definition as follows such that the columns are defined to match the names / datatypes / NULLability:
SELECT TOP 0 CAST('01-01-1980' AS DATETIME) AS [ReportRunTime] ,SourceID ,VisitID ,BaseID ,OccurrenceSeqID
My question is what is the proper way to do this? I have been try the ways that it is instructing me to do.
By creating the name, then I go to a list of potential sources, one being: the local, then another being: the actual domain on the network, last one being: the name of the created data source. I have already tried the local & domain, I will try the last one.
But, my question is if this selection is not going to connect to SQL SERVER. Then, "What should I do within the server to make this connection possible to a client computer look for the access?"
I have the following query that will serve as a basis for SSRS report
SELECT TOP (1000) d.Project_Name, d.Status, d.Country, d.Region, p.Period, p.Quarter, p.Year, d.Brand, d.Store_Opens_Actual, d.DA, d.DPN, d.StoreNumber, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), CASE WHEN ISDATE(d .Store_Opens_Actual) = 1 THEN d .Store_Opens_Actual WHEN ISDATE(d .Store_Opens_Forecast) = 1 AND ISDATE(d .Store_Opens_Actual) = 0 THEN d .Store_Opens_Forecast WHEN ISDATE(d

This returns a dataset, that I need to convert into a PIVOT table that should look like the attached spreadsheet.
Having trouble writing the PIVOT table query. I feel like I am missing something conceptually as I am not doing any summing or aggregation. I don't know if dynamics SQL is the solution here or which route to take. I don't know if there is such things as PIVOTING without aggregation. CROSS TAB came to my mind as well.

Recently I've been stumbling with a way to properly produce a result that provides me a count of sales orders that fall in a range of sales order totals.
I want to take the Sales Order Total and then count how many times it falls into a specific bucket.
I've included the script where I've left with sample data so you can run in into a tempdb.
I hope to have the end result look like the below summary if you use my sample data.
Count Less Than 5K: 5 Count Greater Than 5K Less Than 10K: 0 Count Greater Than 10K Less Than 25K: 3 Count Greater Than 25K: 2
Here is the script to set up the tempdb
use tempdb go /* drop table #salesinvoice; drop table #salesinvoicedetail;
[Code] ....
Below is my query, I change it to perform a count on the summarized totals.
select si.OrderID as OrderNum ,sum(case when sid.LineAmount < 5000 then 1 else 0 end) as LT5K ,sum(case when sid.LineAmount >=5000 and sid.LineAmount < 10000 then 1 else 0 end) as GT5kLT10k ,sum(case when sid.LineAmount >=10000 and sid.LineAmount < 25000 then 1 else 0 end) as GT10kLT25k
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''
I have written a script to pivot a table into multiple columns.
The script works when run on its own but gives an error when i try to create a view or aprocedure from the same script. The temporary table #.... does not work so i have converted it to a cte.
Here is a copy of the script below
-- Dynamic PIVOT IF OBJECT_ID('#External_Referrals') IS NULL DROP TABLE #External_Referrals; GO DECLARE @T AS TABLE(y INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY);
Quick question, I hope, I am trying to create a table that has a column that is a nested table in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Any ideas how I could go about doing this?
we have some reference tables in in a specific database. that other applications need to have access to them. Is it possible to create a view in the application's database to retrive data from ref database while users just have access to the application Database not the view's underlying tables?
