DB Engine :: Updating Table Fields With Multiple Target Records
Apr 30, 2015
I am trying to multiple update records in Table B from a single record in Table A. To identify the records that need to be updated I used this:
Select
Table1.cfirstnameas'Table
1 First',Table1.clastnameas'Table
1 Last',Table1.ifamilyid,CR.icontactid,CR.lLiveswithStudent,
Table2.cfirstnameas'Table
2 First',Table2.cLastNameas'Table
2 Last',Table2.ilocationidas'Table
2 Location',Table1.iLocationIDas'Table
1 Location'
fromTable1
JoinTable3
CRonTable1.istudentid=CR.istudentid
JoinTable2
onCR.icontactid=Table2.iContactID
whereCR.lLivesWithStudent=1
andTable1.ifamilyid>0
andTable1.ilocationid<>Table2.iLocationIDandTable1.lCurrent=1
I need to update the ilocationid from Table 1 to all Table 2 records related to Table 1but there is no direct relation from Table 1 to Table 2. I needed Table 3 to make the connection from Table 1 to 2.

I'm trying to update a checkbox from "False" to "True" within a single table for multiple records. I can update a single record using the script below. However, I'm having trouble applying additional Id's to the string.
(Works) - Update Name_Demo set KEY_CONTACT = 'true' where ID = 225249
(doesn't work) - Update Name_Demo set KEY_CONTACT = 'true' where ID = '225249, 210014, 216543'
It says query executes successfully but returned no rows.

writing the query for the following, I need to collapse the continuity. If the termdate for an ID is one day less than the effdate of the next id (for the same ID) i need to collapse the records. See below example .....how should i write the query which will give me the desired output. i.e., get min(effdate) and max(termdate) if termdate is one day less than the effdate of next record.

How can I update each record in a table, based on a value in another tablewith a single SQL statement?For example, suppose I have the following two tables:Table1Name Something Color-----------------------------------------John GHAS BlueJohn DDSS BlueJohn EESS BluePaul xxxx RedRingo HJKS RedRingo FFFS RedSara hjkd PurpleSara TTHE PurpleJimi sdkjls GreenTable2Name Color------------------------John ?Paul ?Ringo ?Sara ?Jimi ?How can I update the color field in table 2 to correspond with the colorfield in table1 (so I can normalize the db and delete the color field fromtable1)?I know I could open table2 and loop through within my app; just wonderingabout a single SQL statement that would do it. I need a similar technique inother places as part of my app.Thanks,Calan

I have a really simple query I'm trying to execute. I want to replace all instances of int X (8) in Column A (LastActivityID) with int Y (27) but the following SQL returns the said error. I understand the error, but not sure how to script the SQL differently to get the intended result. Thanks in advance.
Code Block
UPDATE Item SET LastActivityID = 27 WHERE LastActivityID = 8
Error: Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..

I need to list all the records in Table2 which don't have matching field values in Table1.
This the the exact opposite of what I need:
SELECT DISTINCT
Field1,
Field2,
Field3,
Field4,
Field5
FROM
[Table1]
WHERE EXISTS(
SELECT DISTINCT
FieldA,
FieldB,
FieldC,
FieldD,
FieldE
FROM
[Table2]
)
The above seems to give me all records in Table1 in which the five fields match the five fields specified in Table2. What does not show up is the test record I put in Table2 which is not in Table1.
What I need, however, is the exact opposite.
I tried the above using NOT EXISTS but I get no records at all.
How do do this?

what is the best way to uses ssis to deal with a CSV file that contains a number of records that contain a different number of fields ?
I could just load as a single column delimited by <CRLF> but then I would have to write the code to parse the line, effectively detokenising the columns myself but if that is the case then why uses ssis at all ?

I'm having a bit of problem putting together a query that will update records in one table from another table. I've got 2 tables lets call them tblA and tblB.In tblA there is EID(int), QID(int), OID(int) and in tblB OID(int) and QID(int). Also there is an input parameter @EID.What I want to have happen is when someone inputs @EID then tblB gets updated from tblA. To give you a heads up there are no PKs or FKs in either of the tables.If there is an OID in tblA it takes the QID from tblA and places it in tblB where OID from tblA and tblB match.Hopefully this makes sense I thought that I could do something like this:CREATE PROCEDURE test3(@EID int)AS UPDATE tblUsedSET QuestionID = (select QuestionID from tblExamQuestions where ExamID = @EID)WHERE OrderID = (select OrderID from tblExamQuestions where ExamID = @EID)GOBut I get an error that says that there are to many records being returned by the subqueries.

Hi there!!
I have a table say Emp with index as (Empid) which is a autoincreament field.
How do I update names of already existing rows having identified Empid.
Complexity lies with the fact that I cannot use Emp table as Destination table because if i do so then it will insert new rows and empid will change.
Thanks and Regards

I am trying to update a large table which consists of 45 million records , it is taking more than 2 days to the update , below is my approach
1. The table has only one clustered index and no other indexes on the table.
2. I am updating in batches say 20000 record-wise.
3. Changed the recovery mode to bulk logged and auto-growth size is set to  300MB and there is enough space in my disk for transaction log .
But still the query is running slowly.

I have many large tables with millions of records in a SQL Server database. They all use an Identity column which is the clustered index. We haven't been deleting any records until recently because disk space is now becoming a problem.
Assuming I delete a lot of old records, I'm thinking that the freed up space in the data pages won't be reused. New records will be added at the end of the table because of the Identity column being the clustered index. So the table will keep getting bigger even though there is lots of free space.
Assuming I'm right, then how do I recapture this unused space? Is an alter table rebuild the best way? Or rebuilding the clustered index?

Hi,Currently we're a building a metadatadriven datawarehouse in SQLServer 2000. We're investigating the possibility of the updatingtables with enormeous number of updates and insert and the use ofcheckpoints (for simple recovery and Backup Log for full recovery).On several website people speak about full transaction log and thepace of growing can't keep up with the update. Therefore we want tocreate a script which flushes the dirty pages to the disk. It's notquite clear to me how it works. Questions we have is:* How does the process of updating, insert and deleting works with SQLServer 2000 with respect to log cache, log file, buffer cache, commit,checkpoint, etc?What happens when?* As far as i can see now: i'm thinking of creating chunks of data of1000 records with a checkpoint after the Query. SQL server has thedefault of implicit transactions and so it will not need a commit.Something like this?* How do i create chunks of 1000 records automatically withoutcreating a identity field or something. Is there something like SELECTNEXT 1000?Greetz,Hennie

Hi,
I have a table called "tblProducts" with following fields:-
ProductID(Pk, AutoIncrement), ProductCode(FK), ProdDescr.
So to the above table I have added a new field/column named "ProdLongDescr(varchar, Null)"
So, I need to populate this newly added column with specific values for each row depending on "ProductCode" which is different forevery row. The problem is that I have 25 rows.So instead of Writing 25 individual update scripts, is there a way in which single query will do the same job instead of writing one update query for each row ?. If so can some one guide me how to achieve that OR point to me a good resource.
Below are a couple of Individual update scripts I Wrote. "ProductCode" is different for all 25 rows.
Update tblValAdPackageElement SET ProdLongDescr = 'Slideshows' WHERE ProductCode = 'SLID'
And szElementDescr='Slideshow'
if @@error <> 0
begin
goto ErrPos
end
Update tblValAdPackageElement SET ProdLongDescr = 'CategorySlideshows' WHERE ProductCode = 'SLDC'
And szElementDescr='CategorySlideshow'
if @@error <> 0
begin
goto ErrPos
end

Hello, I am pretty new with SQL Server 2005.
I have installed SQL Server Express Edition. I have migrated a set of tables from Oracl10g (by using Microsoft's Migration Tool Kit).While I am trying the following simple update command, the session hangs and it never finishes !!!!!!!!!!!!
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
select pos_key from pos_station where staff_key = 1105
POS_KEY
=======
NULL
update pos_station set pos_key = 1 where staff_key = 1105
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The table has a few constraints and a couple of indices in place.
Then I create another table (but no contraints or indices), just copy the data from the problematic one and the update WORKS (in msecs) :
update pos_station_new set pos_key = 1 where staff_key = 1105
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Is there any way to tell if the table (any table in SQL Server) is corrupted or not ?
How can I tell if a session is waiting for something and what is that something ?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hello All
I am trying to figure out if what i am attempting to do is possible and whether or not my approach is wrong to begin with.
I am trying to build a custom report for our accounting system which is Traverse from Open systems. This is what i have done in the stored procedure thus far
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE rptArFLSalesByCustItemized_sp
@custId pCustID,
@dateFrom datetime,
@dateThru datetime,
@itemIdFrom pItemId,
@itemIdThru pItemId
as
set nocount on
-- define some variables for previous year
declare @LYqty int, @LyAmt money, @LYfrom datetime, @LYthru datetime
-- set defaults
SET @itemIdFrom=ISNULL(@itemIdFrom,(SELECT MIN(itemId) FROM tblInItem))
SET @itemIdThru=ISNULL(@itemIdThru,(SELECT MAX(itemId) FROM tblInItem))
SET @LYfrom=DATEADD(YEAR,-1,@dateFrom)
SET @LYthru=DATEADD(YEAR, -1, @dateThru)
-- create small temp table to hold customer info
Create Table #tmpArCustInfo
(
custId pCustID,
custName VARCHAR (30),
)
-- populate customer temp table with info
Insert into #tmpArCustInfo
select custId, custName
from tblArCust
WHERE custId = @custId
-- create a temp table to hold the Data for each Item
Create Table #tmpArSalesItemized
(
itemId pItemId,
productLine VARCHAR (12),
pLineDesc VARCHAR (35),
descr VARCHAR (35),
LYQtySold int,
LYTDQtySold int,
QtySold int,
LYTDsales money,
totalSales money,
LastInvDate datetime,
)
-- populate the temp table with all of the inventory items
insert into #tmpArSalesItemized
select ii.itemId, ii.productLine, ip.Descr, ii.Descr, 0,0,0,0,0, NULL
from tblInItem ii, tblInProductLine ip
where ip.productLine = ii.productLine
AND ii.itemId BETWEEN @itemIdFrom AND @itemIdThru
-- update table with this years quantities
update #tmpArSalesItemized
SET QtySold = (select SUM(QtyOrdSell) from tblArHistDetail hd
where TransId IN (select TransId from tblArHistHeader where custId = @custId)
AND orderDate IN (select OrderDate from tblArHistHeader where OrderDate BETWEEN @dateFrom AND @dateThru)
AND hd.partId BETWEEN @itemIdFrom AND @itemIdThru
GROUP BY hd.partId
)
-- Return the temp tables results
select * from #tmpArSalesItemized, #tmpArCustInfo
drop table #tmpArSalesItemized, #tmpArCustInfo
return
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
My problems begin where i want to start updating all of the Qty's of the QtySold field. I have managed to get it to write the same sum in every field but i cannot figure out how to update each row based on the sum of the qty found for that item in the tblArHistDetails table, trouble is too that there is no reference to the custId in that table either. The custId resides in tblArHistHeader and is linked to the details table via the TransId column. So really i need to update many rows based on criteria from 2 other tables.
Can anyone please help? I dont have a clue how to make this work, and most of what i have learned about sql thus far has been from opening other stored procs etc in the accounting system and just reading to see how the developers have done things.
Thanks
Jamie

Hi Guys
I have 4 databases in the same space.My users use all of them and use the same username and password to log into these 4 databases.In each of these databases,i have put a control table to allow me to keep track of all users that have to reset their passwords.
The control table consists of the username and flag fields.When the flag is ON(1) the user is forced to reset thier password and if the flag is OFF(0) they are not.
When a user logs into any one of these databases and they have to reset thier password,how do i make sure that all the other tables in other databases are also updated to make sure that the user is not forced to reset their password again when they log into those other databases later since they are using the same username and password for all databases.
I am planning to use a stored procedure which i will put into all the four databases and when a user logs in and has to reset their password,that sproc is called and automatically updates all the other 3 tables in other 3 databases.
Some SQL examples will be very appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
i have a scenario where I have to read 2 files that update the same table (a temp staging table)...this comes from the source system's limitation on the amount of columns that it can export. What we have done as a workaround is we split the data into 2 files where the 2nd file would contain the first file's primary key so we can know on which record to do an update...
Here is my problem...
The table that needs to be updated contains 9 columns. File one contains 5 of them and file2 contains 4 of them.
File 1 inserts 100 rows and leaves the other 4 columns as nulls and ready for file 2 to do an update into them.
File 2 inserts 10 rows but fails on 90 rows due to incorrect data.
Thus only 10 rows are successfully updated and ready to be processed but 90 are incorrect. I want to still do processing on the existing 10 but cant affort to try and do processing on the broken ones...
The easy solution would be to remove the incorrect rows from the temp table when ever an error occurs on the 2nd file's package by running a sql query on the table using the primary keys that exist in both files but when the error occurs on the Flat File source, I can't get the primary key.
What would be the best suggestion? Should i rather fail the whole package if 1 row bombs out? I cant put any logic in the following package that does the master file update/insert from the temp table because of the nature of the date. I

Mike

I have two tables - products and productpropertyvalue
I need to select multiple fields from the productpropertyvalue as it corresponds to the product id. The script I am using is
select a.id, a.productname, a.siteprice,
b.propertyvalue
from product a, productpropertyvalue b
where a.id = b.productid and propertyid=590
This allows me to extract only 1 propertyid. I need to make it add 3 other columns for propertyid=589, 617, 615
Any help solving this problem would be appreciated - thanx!

Hello all,my first post here...hope it goes well. I'm currently working onstored procedure where I translated some reporting language into T-SQLThe logic:I have a group of tables containing important values for calculation.I run various sum calculations on various fields in order to retrievecost calculations ...etc.1) There is a select statement which gathers all the "records" whichneed calculations.ex: select distinct Office from Offices where OfficeDesignation ='WE' or OfficeDesignation = 'BE...etc.As a result I get a list of lets say 5 offices which need to becalculated!2) A calculation select statement is then run on a loop for each ofthe returned 5 offices (@OfficeName cursor used here!) found above.Anexample can be like this(* note that @WriteOff is a variable storing the result):"select @WriteOff = sum(linecost * (-1))From Invtrans , InventoryWhere ( transtype in ('blah', 'blah' , 'blah' ) )and ( storeloc = @OfficeName )and ( Invtrans.linecost <= 0 )and ( Inventory.location = Invtrans.storeloc )and ( Inventory.itemnum = Invtrans.itemnum )"...etcThis sample statement returns a value and is passed to the variable@WriteOff (for each of the 5 offices mentioned in step 1). This is donearound 9 times for each loop! (9 calculations)3) At the end of each loop (or each office), we do an insert statementto a table in the database.
