I have two columns "Project Name" and "Flag".Â
Now i want to find out all the project names which contain a particular substring in it, like say - "SRM" and update the "Flag" column to value 1 for all those projects.
I tried to extract the information in a field
Samples of the data:
"Current Date updated ( 12/31/2015 -> 12/31/2016 )"
"Status updated ( Open -> Should be Closed )"
From example 1 ==> need outputs of " 12/13/2015" and "12/31/2016";
example 2 --> need outputs of "Open" and "Should be Closed"
These are what all records look like:
1. It contains the word, "updated".
2. There is a space after the last character of updated. Then, there is a space before open parenthesis. Then, there is a space before getting the required word. Example: "updated ( xxxxx" (xxxxx is a required extract word.)
3. The entire word(s) should be captured before the "->" sign (after the open parenthesis)
4. The last part is to captured everything after the "->" but before the close parenthesis ")"
Hello forum, I need extract a substring form a string that follows a regular expressions -->
T:1º/PQ:1/TALLA:2(MOD.51 100/150)
T:<number>º/PQ:<number>...
I need to extract only the numbers. The SUBSTRING functions is insuficient for me, because in some cases de number can be 1, 10, 100, 1000, ...
I would like me use it as:
SELECT RegularExpression (Field)
Can you help me, please.

View 2 Replies View RelatedNormally when I have a "Many-toMany" or linkage table where the primary key consists of a foreign key from two different tables, I do not bother to make a separate identiy column instead.Does anyone see a reason why an identity column would be more or less desireable ? For exampleTable Person PK - PersonIDTable Car PK - CarIDTable PersonCar PK (PersonID, CarID)Or would it be better to make an Identity Column such as PersonCarID so then the table would look like the following:Table PersonCarPK - (PersonCarID)FK - PersonIDFK - CarIDCreate Unique Constraint on Person and CarIDAny feedback is appreciated

I would like to alter view to add columns. My base table is populated by application and the base table name is always change. Is there any way to add some extra columns to this view.
One way is to create a sp to add columns and use the view inside the sp. But I would like to know is there any way to alter the view.Â
I am adding a table within my vb.net program using New datatable(tblname) function, then adding 22 columns (col01 to col22) to this table using .columns.add (colname) function without any error.The program however throws an exception when trying to assign a value to column number 14 (col14) saying this column does not belong to table tblname. Assigning a value from col01 to col13 is working fine.Is there a limitation on number of columns can be added to a table using code?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working with a SQL database that was migrated from MS Access and adapted for full-text search which involved creating a new table with a different design. I would like to copy three columns (YearGiven, MonthGiven, DayGiven) from the Documents table to the newly-created FullDocuments table so that I can delete the Documents table and four other tables with redundant data. Here are the two tables involved in the column copy:
Documents Table
DocID (Primary Key)
DocNo
SequenceNo
YearGiven
MonthGiven
DayGiven
FullDocuments Table
FullDocID (Primary Key)
DocNo
SequenceNo
SectionText
YearGiven (empty €“ no data)
MonthGiven (empty €“ no data)
DayGiven (empty €“ no data)
After the copy column procedure I want the FullDocuments table structure to look like this:
FullDocuments Table
FullDocID (Primary Key)
DocNo
SequenceNo
SectionText
YearGiven (full of transferred data)
MonthGiven (full of transferred data)
DayGiven (full of transferred data)
The problem is that the FullDocuments table contains approximately 4x as many rows as the Documents table. This is because each document has four types €“ the primary Text document and three supplemental documents (Background, Report, and Index). Whereas the Documents table has one row for each Document, the Full Documents table has four rows per document (the four document types). Instead of simply doing a copy and paste of columns based on a primary key and foreign key relationship (as described in the MSDN online books), I need to copy and paste based on the DocNo and SequenceNo columns. Thus the same date data (Year, Month, Day) will need to occupy four consecutive rows for each document in the FullDocuments table (as is now the case with the DocNo and SequenceNo).
I will end up with one table that meets the requirements for the full-text search (primary key and all the text to be searched) and eliminate five tables (Documents and the four document type text tables). This is a static database consisting of historical records so I am not concerned about input errors that can be associated with denormalization.
I tried exporting the data using the Export Wizard using the €œCopy data from one or more tables€? option. The transfer failed. The most relevant lines of the Error Report are:
·Error 0xc0202009: Data Flow Task: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "The statement has been terminated.".
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'FullDocumentID', table 'Documents.dbo.FullDocuments'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
·Error 0xc0047022: Data Flow Task: The ProcessInput method on component "Destination - FullDocuments" (61) failed with error code 0xC0202009. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running.

·Error 0xc0047021: Data Flow Task: Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0202009.
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
I then tried the €œWrite a query to specify the data to transfer€? option focusing on just the YearGiven column using various FETCH, INSERT AND UPDATE commands without any luck. Questions:
1. Is the query approach the best way to achieve my objective, or did I miss something in the €œCopy data€? option in the Export Wizard?
2. If the query approach is the best way, any suggestions on what the query will look like?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi
I have a table (Sql server 2000) which has 14 cost columns for each record, and now due to a new requirement, I have 2 taxes which needs to be applied on two more fields called Share1 and share 2
e.g
Sales tax = 10%
Use Tax = 10%
Share1 = 60%
Share2 = 40%
So Sales tax Amt (A) = Cost1 * Share1 * Sales Tax
So Use tax Amt (B) = cost1 * share2 * Use tax
same calculation for all the costs and then total cost with Sales tax = Cost 1 + A , Cost 2 + A and so on..
and total cost with Use tax = Cost1 +B, Cost 2 +B etc.
So there are around 14 new fields required to save Sales Tax amt for each cost, another 14 new fields to store Cost with Sales Tax, Cost with Use tax. So that increases the table size.
Some of these fields might be used for making reports.
I was wondering which is a better approach out of the below 3:
1) To calculate these fields dynamically while displaying them on the User interface and not save in DB (while making reports, again calculate these fields dynamically and show), or
2) Add new formula field columns in database table to save each field, which would make the table size bigger, but reporting becomes easier.
3) Add only those columns in database on which reports needs to be made, calculate rest of the fields dynamically on screen.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

We have a database with hundreds of tables, each with "CreatedByLoginId" and "ModifiedByLoginId" FK columns back to the Login table. Â This is all fine and well, but 500+ tables all link back to Login table every time a record is inserted or updated.
For strictly performance reasons, what do you think of us REMOVING the FK constraints on all of our tables? Â While this does mean that a GUID that is not a valid LoginId could potentially be put in a table, I'm not too worried about it because users don't have direct access to the database.
I am trying to Import data into SQL server 2008 using management studio. The source data is an Access dbase. I am trying to do this with queries as the tables do not match but I do need to copy specific columns for the source to the destination. Any brief example selecting a column from the source table, and just entering a dummy value for other columns(other column of data for destination table does not exist in source table).Â
For the example

First Name, Description
 Tom         , manager
Destination dbase SQLServer (T1dbase,Employee table), note 4 columns
Primary key NameID, FirstName nvarchar (20), LastName nvarchar (20), Description nvarchar(20)

SELECT DISTINCT
Anvendelseskoder.[Usage Code] AS [Building Code],
Anvendelseskoder.[Usage Code Value] AS [Building Description],
HeleDanmark_DAWA.KVHx
FROM Anvendelseskoder
RIGHT JOIN HeleDanmark_DAWA
[Code] ...
It gives me the following error:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 26
The multi-part identifier "aa.KVHx" could not be bound.
When clicked, it marks the first time i call "aa.KVHx"Â
Which I do in: "WHERE S2.Nr=2 AND s2.KVHx=aa.KVHx) AS Kode2,"

In a parent/child table structure (order/orderdetail) I have used identity columns for the orderdetail or compund primary keys. I find a single identity column on the detail table easier to manage (with a fk to the parent) but what ends up bieng easiest for the user is to have an order (say #3456) and detail items listed sequentially from 1 to n. This reflects a compound key structure but generating the 2nd field is a pain. Is there any way to tie an identity field to the parent key so that it will generate this number for me automatically?
Hello:
I am running into an issue with RS2k PDF export.
Case: Exporting Report to PDF/Printing/TIFF
Report: Contains 1 table with 19 Columns. 1 column is static, the other 18 are visible at the users descretion. Report when printed/exported to pdf spans 2 pages naturally, 16 on the first page, 3 on the second, and the column widths have been adjusted to provide a perfect page span .
User A elects to hide two of the columns, and show the rest. The report complies and the viewable version is perfect, the excel export is perfect.. the PDF export on the first page causes every fith column, starting with the last column that was hidden to be expanded to take up additional width. On the spanned page, it renders the first column on that page correctly, then there is a white space gap equal to the width of the hidden columns and then the rest of the cells show with the last column expanded to take up the same width that the original 2 columns were going to take up, plus its width.
We have tried several different settings to see if it helps this issue or makes it worse. So far cangrow/canshrink/keep together have made no impact. It is not possible to increase the page size due to limited page size selection availablility for the client. There are far too many combinations of what the user can elect to show or hide to put together different tables to show and hide on the same report to remove this effect.
Any help or suggestion on this issue would be appreciated

How to design tables in SQL Server for the above.
Hi all,
I have just started using SQL7 and quite dumb at it.
Here is my problem
i have tables ip_address and ip_subnets. both contains more than 20,000 records. Though ideally each subnet should correspond to only one ip address it is not so due to SMS inventory and remote clients configurations etc.
As an example If my ip address is 141.151.128.78 I need to select only 141.151.128.64 ( or atleast 141.151.128.*)as the valid subnet. In other words I need to compare upto 3rd octet and only if it matches with ip address then declare that as the valid subnet.
Pls note that ip addresses vary for each machine though there will 4 octets, I can't use character positions as the nos in each octet might vary from 1-255.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
