DB Question: Copying ID
Jun 10, 2006
Hi,
I'm trying to insert one value (an order) into the table Order and (via a for-loop) all the products in that order in the table Product, hence, one order can have multiple products (and must have at least one). I have an automatically increased value for the OrderID as the primary key for Order, and I have a foreign key named OrderID in the Product table. So far, I _think_ everything's logically correct.
However, I don't understand how to retrieve the OrderID to be able to insert it in the Product table upon insertion. I guess this is done all the time, but the only solution I can think of is to make a new SQL Command, asking for the just created OrderID to use it in the SQL Command for the products' for-loop. I'm sure that's a bad idea. :-)
Can I use relationships or so to make this automatically updated (that is, to have the Product table "check for" the OrderID and insert the OrderID upon insertion of the Product row(s))?
I hope this is clear to you. Thanks in advance for all help!

Hi, I have been having fun and games for well over a week now trying to get an xml file copied into an sql file, but still have no joy. I and using the bulk copy to do this and think I am close to solving it but just need a final push in the write direction.
In green below is the full source code, I think that the trouble is with the try statement part here:
Try
bulk.WriteToServer(xd)
This comes up with the error :
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Xml.XmlDocument' to type 'System.Data.IDataReader'
Basically how do I get the XML data into a reader (or IDataReader) format so that the writetoserver command can interpret it
I would be so greatful if someone could help resolve this it is becoming increasingly more frustrating
Protected Sub Button1_Click1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim objXML
Dim objXSL
' destination table
Dim connectionString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("Database1ConnectionString").ConnectionString
Dim myNewConnection As Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection = New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
myNewConnection.Open()
Dim productreader As XmlReader
Dim bulk As Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy = New Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy(myNewConnection)
bulk.DestinationTableName = "Product"
Dim productcount As Integer = 0
Dim settings As New System.Xml.XmlReaderSettings()
settings.IgnoreWhitespace = True
settings.IgnoreComments = True
Dim xs As String = (Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/XMLfile.xml"))
Using reader As XmlReader = XmlReader.Create(xs, settings)
While (reader.Read())
If (reader.NodeType = XmlNodeType.Element And "product" = reader.LocalName) Then
productcount += 1
End If
End While
End Using
Response.Write(String.Format("found {0} products!", productcount))
Using bulk
bulk.DestinationTableName = "Product"
Dim xd As New System.Xml.XmlDocument()

I've got two DBs in the same SQL instance. They are named TST and PRD. I am using 2.0 so there are many ASP generated tables also. Every once in a while I want to refresh data from PRD to TST. But I don't want to copy the data from ASP tables.What is the easiest way to do so?

Hello List,
Folks, I need a help here. We are running our production database on SQL Server 7.0. We are in a process of switching the production database server to another server hardware. I was wondering, How can we copy the Logins/Passwords from my old server to the new one. Well this is very important to have all the old logins and passwords on the new server to have anybody login to it. I know, Doing Export will copy the logins. But would it allow the same old password to be on the new server?
Please help me here.

I have a SQL Table called Consumers that contains 495,037 records.
The record size is about 350 bytes and it has one field that is a varchar (255). I am using DTS to copy this file from SQL (7.0) to Access (97). Last week this file had about 216,000 records and the DTS Process worked okay. Today, it has 495,037 records and the DTS Process appears to lose some records (about 26,000) during the copy. In the DTS Package the SQL query is just a straight SELECT statement with no WHERE condition.
During the DTS Process the SQL Consumers Table is being copied to and Access Table. The error I am getting during the DTS Process is "Error at Destination for Row # 468608".
When I open the Access Table it shows 468,608 as the actual number of rows in the Access Table and shows ConsumerID 675820 (primary key, identity field) for this particular record.
When I link to the SQL Table via Access the Record # 468,608 shows ConsumerID 643852 and the last record shows Record # 495,037 and ConsumerID 675820.
This tells me that some records are not being copied over during the DTS Process. The last record on the SQL Table is on the Access Table. So there are probably 26,429 (495,037 on SQL Table minus 468,608 on Access Table) that are not on the Access Table.
The DTS Select Query does not have a Where Condition. Do you think some records are being lost because of the size of the SQL Table?
There is an Advance Tab on the DTS Properties Page; there are some
options like 'Insert Commit Size', Fetch Buffer Size', 'Use Fast Load', 'Keep NULLS', and 'Check Constraints' that I
need to take a further look at. Have you used any of these options and do you think any particular one may help
my problem?
There is also and 'Exception File Name' option. I will give this a try next week to see if it will write the problem
records to disk.
Thanks for your help, Kevin

I have an 8 GB SQL 6.5 database that I need to move to another server. I know I can create the devices and the database on the new server exactly as they were created on the old server then replace the new DAT files with the old (after shuting down SQL Server). The issue I am running into is that the sort order and character sets on the two servers are different. Will this have an effect if I copy the DAT files? Am I better off using BCP? I'd hate to use BCP because of the time that it will take to move the files.
Thanks for you help

Hi, I'm pretty new to SQL so am still learning the syntax etc.
I have 2 tables, one called Railways and another called Sheet1$ (an import from Excel).
In Railways, I have 5 Fields:
ID
First_Name
Last_Name
File
Full_Name
At the moment, all are populated with data (300 records) but Full_Name is showing values of <NULL>.
I want to populate Full_Name with the Data in Sheet1$ which has the field Full_Name (which is populated with the data I need)
What is the query I need to run to get SQL to copy the data from Sheet1$ (Full_Name) into Railways (Full_Name) - replacing all of the <NULL> values?
I've tried using the import wizard but without success.
Thanks in advance.

I was trying to find the fastest way to COPY a 50G DB from our production server to our test server. I was testing this on our test server and had a simple question.
Attach/Detach is out since I can only move not copy a DB using this method.
export/import, bcp and DTS take too long and are not indented for this anyways.
so, I was left with Backup and restore. so, I tried that on two different test servers. Took very long. so, I decided to be brave and try the following.
1. Take DB1 that's running on server1 OFFLINE
2. Manually copy all datafiles and logfiles from Server1 to server2.
3. Attach DB1 on server2.
It came up great. No complaints whatsoever. So basically, it's the same as attach/detach but instead of detaching the DB I took the Db offline and copied the files over. So my question...
Is this supported?
Any chance of corruption on either of the servers?
If a DB is offline, is copying datafiles and logfiles supported (I am bit worried if I might corrupt data in production).
Do people use this method to COPY databases or do they stick with BACKUP and RESTORE?
PS: Are there any other ways to do this?
Thanks so much.

Hi all, I'm in the process of cleaning up a very VERY poorly implemented system. One of the problems I'm tackling consists of :
1 - Database A
2 - Database B (different schema than A)
3 - A task which regularly polls A, checks for updated/new records and inserts them (with some transformation) into B
As you can imagine, the overhead of the polling is killing the system. What I want to know is :
What is the best way for A to notify B whenever there are changes to a particular table on A ?
I'm running 2000 but we will most probably upgrade to 2005.
thanks in advance to everybody

Just installed Sql Server Express, trying to figure out how to copy a database. I'm pretty new to databases in general.
Let's say I've created a new database called test1. Now, I want to create an identical copy (data not important, I just need the table structures, keys, constraints, etc.) called test2. Not sure how I would go about doing that. I see that import/export functionality is disabled in the Express version, if that's what I would have needed. I tried copying the mdf file manually and calling "attach" - that failed. Any suggestions? Thanks!
