Creating An MS SQL Data Table Programatically
Aug 27, 2005
I use Visual Studio and VB.
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 SQ Gurus,
Please help me with this issue that I am facing. I want to create a table programatically but want to pass its name as a variable. I would like to do something as follows:
CREATE PROCEDURE BS_Create
(@Name nvarchar(25))
AS
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[@Name](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[Prod_Name] [nvarchar] (75) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
The table name is passed in as a parameter. No matter what I pass as a parameter, the table name is '@Name', which is not what I want. Instead, if the variable contains the value 'Product', I would like to see a table with the name 'Product' to be created.
How can I solve this problem.
Any help is appreciated!

Hi
I've read the MSDN documentation about creating calculated members and states that we can only create session scope or query scope members.
I need to create a static calculated member, one that stays there until it's deletion... That is possibel using Analysis Services, but what about with MDX or DSO?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I am creating dataflow tasj using following
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
These refer to Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap.dll and Microsoft.SQLServer.DTSRuntimeWrap.dll. While these assemblies were already there in my dev machine I don't find these files in production enviornment for SQL server 2005. I am refering these assemblies from following path in my local machine : C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SDKAssemblies.
How to install these assemblies in prod env, offcource one option is to copy it and then put it in GAC thru script . Why does not it gets installed while installation of SQL server 2005. Are these assemly dependent on SP1 ?
Thanks

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.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have created a SSIS package that transfer data from a Foxpro database to an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. I used the wizard to create the package but I load and execute the package within a custom application that I have written in C#.
The way the custom application is intended to work is that the user can have the database in any location on the computer and all he has to do is specify the location then the application programatically changes the location of the source on the package that it has loaded and then execute it. When I initially run the package the first time (using the original path), it works fine and transfers the data. However, every subsequent time I run the application and specify a different path, the database on the SQL Server side gets created as expected but the data is not transfered!
Where am I going wrong? Do I need to save the package after I modify the source then reload and run it again or do i need to change something else in the Data Flow to make this work?

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

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!

Hello All,
I am working on constructing a software layer around some features of the RDL language that would allow me to programatically generate reports.
I am reading the RDL specification language, and I do not understand three things:
1) How the DataSet element is populated by the query or more precisely how do the <Field> elements capture all the rows inside the table that is being queries?
To my understanding I wilkl have to define several fields that correspond to all columns of interest in the query.
But that is only for one row (?!) How do the rest of the rows get populated? Does the server recursively create new rows based on my definitions until it matches row for row all the data in the table?
2) Once the elements are inside a DataSet how do make use of that data to render it in a table.
I understand how the DataSource, DataSet, and Table work individually, yet I do not understand how to establish a flow of data between DataSet and Table.
3) Do I even need to use a <Table> as an RDL element in order to organize the data in an excel table?
I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

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?
The table definition is displayed below.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AuditLogDetails](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,

Hello all:
Is it possible to creates fields of the table dynamically?. I have this situation in my project. This is just a small sample. I have row of length 140. I don't wan't to declare all this fields manually using the create table command.
The description of table is as, in this table all the field are of type varchar only, there are like 140 columns.
create dummy emp (
field1 VARCHAR(100), field2 varchar(200), field3 VARCHAR(100).... )
Table: Dummy
================================================== ==
field1 field2 field3..........
Empid Empname empaage1 sam 23...........
2 rai 22............
.
.
.
n raj 45.............
================================================== ==
Now I want to create another table as "EMP" , with proper data type
fields too..
create table emp (
empid int, empname varchar(100), empage int....)
The table should look like as:
Table: EMP
================================================== ==
Empid Empname empaage............
1 sam 23...............
2 rai 22................
.
.
.
n raj 45.................
================================================== ==
I want to do this dynamically.....
Some how I need to extract those field from table[dummy]; the first row acts as a column header for the table[Emp] and the subsequent row acts as a record for the table[Emp]
A small rough snippet of the code will be appreciated....
Waiting for replies........

Hi All,
I have a situation with a table that was created for a transactional
system with a 3 columns key. The table is similar to the following:
countrystatecitydescription
11221City A from country 1 and state 12
11321City A from country 1 and state 13
21422City B from country 2 and state 14
21522City B from country 2 and state 15
Now I'm trying to create a dts package that would allow me to build a
city dimension table with unique codes (keys) for each city. What kind of
transformation should I use to translate the old codes (based on the
country-state-city key) into the new ones and preserving the data
integrity?
Thanks,
Ignacio

I'm trying to create programmatically a table in my db on sql server 2005.1. I created a string "CREATE TABLE ....." and then tried to execute it using my ADO. That didn't work, so I copied the string into a query in sql server and got the message "CREATE TABLE sql is not supported". Why's that? 2. I created a stored procedure in my db that will get the "CREATE TABLE...." string and execute it. I thought it would look something like this: parameter @createString varchar(MAX) BEGIN BEGIN EXEC @createString or @createString END END Both these options didn't work.How can I make it work properly?Thanks.
