DB Design :: Discrepancy In Table Structure After DB Restoration
Jun 23, 2015
After performing copy_only backup of the Database using the below query, I restored the Database and now I checked and found out that there is a discrepancy in the table structure of the restored Database.Its a scheduled backup job.one of the column of the table varchar(300) has been changed to varchar(200)
BACKUP DATABASE DBname TO DISK = N'D:BACKUPdbname.bak' WITH COPY_ONLY, NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10

Hi all
I am developing a site for a client but unfortunately
I havn't much of a clue regarding db/table design.
Scenario:
The client intends to sell window blinds over the internet.
The site has been developed using Asp.Net2 and C# with Server 2005.
I need to develop a price lookup control that has access to 4 parameters:
ManufacturerID (from existing table Products.manufacturerID)
PriceBandID (from existing table Products.PriceBandID)
Width (input by the user)
Drop (input by the user)
The idea being upon button click, the correct price is returned based on those parameters.
The price structure has been given to me in the form of Excel files.
There are around 20 different manufacturers
each with a 7 band (A - G) price matrix.
My question is what would be the most efficient way to represtent
this pricing structure under the current environment?
Will I really need 20 * 7 tables?
Any help, info, advice, pointers, links or comments would be most welcome!
Thanks for your time.

ok i have a design question and since I am not a db designer I hope somebody can give me some insight into this...
I have an app that uses a treeview control to display a hierarchy of a machine assembly. Currently it only goes two levels deep (top level and a single subcomponent.
WHat I would like to do is enable my users to add n-deep levels to the top level machine. The problem with that is that I can't think of a way to store this in a DB and how the table(s) structure would look like.
It seems like this would be a classic problem in DB design, but that is where I lack knowledge so any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanx

It appears that in SQL 2000 restoring a single table is a bit more tedious and less user friendly as in earlier versions (6.5). Can anyone explain in a nutshell the easiest/quickest way to restore a single table from a backup?
Thanks,

Hello everyone,I have a webcontrol that uses database-structures alot, it uses the system tables in SQL to read column information from tables. To ease the load of the SQL server I have a property that stores this information in a cache and everything works fine.I am doing some research to find if there are anyway to get information from the SQL server that the structure from a table has changed.I want to know if a column or table has changed any values, like datatype, name, properties, etc.Any suggestions out there ?!

I couldn't remember which computers I had already installed sp2 on so checked but one computer (running Windows Server 2003 and SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition) seems to have a discrepancy. SELECT @@VERSION returns (Build 3790: Service Pack 1) but the status bar shows "9.0 SP2". Thanks for any insight into this.

Hello friends,
I am new to the SQL Server 2005 development.
From last 1 week or so, i have been facing very strange problem with my sql server 2005s database
which is configured and set on the hosting web server. Right now for managing my sql server 2005 database,
i am using an web based Control Panel developed by my hosting company.
Problem i am facing is that, whenever i try to modify (i.e. add new columns) tables in the database,
it gives me error saying that,
"There is already an object named 'PK_xxx_Temp' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider".
where xxx is the table name.
I have done quite a bit research on the problem and have also searched on the net for solution but still
the problem persist.
Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciated.

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.

I have a SQL 7 db that I use a DTS package to import Oracle data into. The package works fine and imports all the appropriate data. However, if I use an Access 2000 database to attach to the data via ODBC (using the MS SQL Server driver), the negative sign is dropped when displaying data in a table, query, or report.
Same problem in SQL Server - if I query the SQL 7 data via the Query Analyzer, the negative signs are dropped. However, if I query the SQL data using the Enterprise Manager (i.e., Open Table...Return All Rows via right click on the table), the data shows up properly with the negative signs there. Bottom line - the data is correct, but doesn't get displayed correctly in QA or via ODBC.
What gives?! Can anyone explain to me the "connections" that occur between EM and QA? Looks like QA uses a "temporary" ODBC connection to talk to the data, while the EM connects "directly" to the data. Also, what gives with the MS SQL Server ODBC driver - why wouldn't it display the negative signs? Is there a better SQL Server ODBC driver that I should/could use? I've tried configuring the ODBC connection differently, but to no avail.
Any help is greatly appreciated, as the data in question is being used in court and absolutely HAS to be accurately displayed.
Thanks!

When I run the following query with a UNION:
SELECT dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.NAME, dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.TITLE, LOWFARE, ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.AMOUNT as PRICE, 15 AS Lostsavings, LEFT(dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.CostCtr, 4) AS COMPANYCODE, ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.InYear, ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.InMonth, 'TRADITIONAL BOOKING' AS Reason FROM ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL INNER JOIN dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04 ON ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.AWID = dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.AWID AND ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.InMonth = dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.COLMONTH INNER JOIN dbo.TBLMONTHVALUE ON dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.COLMONTH = dbo.TBLMONTHVALUE.monthname WHERE LEFT(dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.CostCtr, 4) = '1038' AND INYEAR = '2004'AND InMonth = 'OCTOBER' AND (ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.DESTINATION = 'DOMESTIC') AND (ITPSG.TBLCCONLINETOOL.TYPE = 'TRADITIONAL') UNION SELECT dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.NAME, dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.TITLE, LOWFARE, ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.PRICE as PRICE, ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.Lostsavings AS Lostsavings, LEFT(dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.CostCtr, 4) AS COMPANYCODE, ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.InYear, ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.InMonth, ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.Reason FROM ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS INNER JOIN dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04 ON ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.AWID = dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.AWID AND ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.InMonth = dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.COLMONTH INNER JOIN dbo.TBLMONTHVALUE ON dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.COLMONTH = dbo.TBLMONTHVALUE.monthname WHERE (LEFT(dbo.TBLCCINFORMATIONOCTOBER04.CostCtr, 4) = '1038') AND (ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.InYear = '2004') AND (ITPSG.TBLCCEXCEPTIONS.InMonth = 'OCTOBER') ORDER BY Reason
It returns these 16 records, 10 from the 1st table and 6 from the second. If I just remove the UNION operator and run them seperatly I get 11 from the 1st table and 6 from the second.
The record I am losing is the second of these two, but with the fields I am selecting they appear identical:
R,JosephField Operations Director INULL267.00001510382004octoberTRADITIONAL BOOKING
R,JosephField Operations Director INULL267.00001510382004octoberTRADITIONAL BOOKING
Is there any reason why the UNION statement is making that second record vanish? Is there a way I can alter the statement so I can run the query with the UNION and not lose records?
Thanks,

Hi There,
Good Day :-)
How could I correct the erroneous value on the property window of an SQL Table.
My problem is that, if I am going to display the property window of Table1, the 'Rows' information displays 115. However, if I am going to execute - Select Count(*) from Table1 then it returns 117. How could I fix this glitch?
Please Help :-)

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.

Guys
Here's a strange one - anyone else come across this :
In SQL2K
select cast(cast ('08-dec-2005' as datetime ) as int) returns 38692
In Excel2002 SP3
Put the same date in a cell and format it as a number and you get 38694
Presumably the products have a different start date

How can I setup a table structure for the diagram shown in the attached bitmap?
1) I need to create a product using labour and materials.
2) I need to create hardware using labour and materials.
3) I need to be able to include some hardware in some products.
4) Some materials in the product are made of a culmination of materials. E.G., Concrete is made of sand, stone, and cement.
Any suggestions?
So far I have :
USE NORTHWIND
Create Table tbProducts (
ProductID int NOT NULL,
Product varchar(50)
)
go
ALTER TABLE tbProducts
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProducts_pk PRIMARY KEY (ProductID)
GO
CREATE Table tbMaterials (

GO
ALTER TABLE tbMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (MaterialID)
GO
CREATE Table tbLabour (
LabourCode char (2) NOT NULL,
Labour varchar(50)
)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (LabourCode)
GO
CREATE Table tbProductMaterials (
fkProductID int NOT NULL,
fkMaterialID int NOT NULL,
Quantity Float NOT NULL
)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkProductID, fkMaterialID)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterils_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkMaterialID)
REFERENCES tbMaterials (MaterialID)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterils_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkProductID)
REFERENCES tbProducts (ProductID)
GO
CREATE TABLE tbProductLabour (
fkProductID int NOT NULL,
fkLabourCode char(2) NOT NULL,
Manpower int NULL DEFAULT(0),
Hours float NULL DEFAULT(0.0)
)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkProductID, fkLabourCode)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkLabourCode)
REFERENCES tbLabour (LabourCode)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkProductID)
REFERENCES tbProducts (ProductID)
GO
CREATE TABLE tbHardware (
HardwareID int NOT NULL,
Hardware varchar(50)
)
go
ALTER TABLE tbHardware
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardware_pk PRIMARY KEY (HardwareID)
GO
CREATE Table tbHardwareMaterials (
fkHardwareID int NOT NULL,
fkMaterialID int NOT NULL,
Quantity Float NOT NULL
)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkHardwareID, fkMaterialID)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkMaterialID)
REFERENCES tbMaterials (MaterialID)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_Hardware_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkHardwareID)
REFERENCES tbHardware (HardwareID)
GO
CREATE TABLE tbHardwareLabour (
fkHardwareID int NOT NULL,
fkLabourCode char(2) NOT NULL,
Manpower int NULL DEFAULT(0),

)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkHardwareID, fkLabourCode)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareLabour_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkLabourCode)
REFERENCES tbLabour (LabourCode)
GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareLabour_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkHardwareID)
REFERENCES tbHardware (HardwareID)
GO
This table structure does not include anything about accounts and item 4) making materials from 1 or more other materials (E.G., Concrete).
Any hints how to incorporate these outstanding items?

I'm new in creating tables. and I was asked to create table(s) to capture information using SQL server 2005 (express edition)
please read below and share your thoughts and opinions o what's the efficient and best way to structure the tables.
I need to capture user's input daily and every hour, text can be from 20-100 characters, and my company is expecting to have 50,000+users in the future...Also the hrs's text can be stored for max 120 days, after that data would be deleted from the table(s)
An example is put all together, (not sure if it is the right and efficient way)
An example is put all together, (not sure if it is the rigth and effectient way) and if database would support that.. and if it will be fast enougth to search for data
(table structure) - (example with 3 users)

1 12/12/2007 10:00 some message

Hi,
I have one field "Status" with 15 different types of values. Like 1, 2, 3, 4 .. 15.
Now this Status field contains the values like this:
Id Status
1 1,2
2 3
3 1,2,3
4 13,15
What is the best way to organize this information in SQLServer table?
My idea is Create one table with the following volumns: ID, Status1, Status2, Status3, ... Status14, Status15.
Now the above data look like this:
Id Status1 Status2 Status3 ... Status13 Status14 Status15
1 1 1 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 1 0 0 0
3 1 1 1
4 0 0 0 1 0 1
So, In future If they add new column they can easily add column like status16.
And status table look like this
Status
StatusID Description
1 a
2 b
..
15
Thanks in advance

I ran the following query in Query Analyzer for a 7 column table.SELECT c.name,c.colid FROM syscolumns c WHERE c.id=925962375 ORDER BYc.colidThe results were:I_CSD 1X_STE_XML2I_USR_LCK4T_CRT_RCD5I_USR_CRT_RCD6T_UDT_RCD7I_USR_UDT_RCD8If I use the information_schema view (SELECT column_name,ordinal_position FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name ='CSD_XML') I get the same results.The problem is that the colids go from 2 to 4 and the colids gothrough 8 when there are only 7 columns.At one time there was another column in the table, but it has sincebeen dropped and isn't there anymore. It seems that the colids insyscolumns did not update when the column was dropped.Is this because of the way I dropped the column? Is there anything Ican do now that it has happened?

My question is, is there a better way to store this data? I hope this is clear, any input would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.
