I'm new to sql server 2005. Previously I used Access. I've noticed that in sql server when a record is inserted into the database table, the data does not get entered sequentially. I looked at the id column and saw that the order numbers are mixed up. Is this something that is common in sql server, and how can I change this. I need the data to be ordered in the order that it was inserted into the database.
Can someone please help.
Hi,
I am migrating a project from Oracle to SQLServer and must use the same DDL.
The entities have compound primary keys. In Oracle I ensure the compound key is unique by using a sequence table to generate one of the values for the compound key.
Does SQL Server have sequence tabels or does anybody know a way to get it do something similar?
Thanks
OK - maybe my Google-fu is off today but I'm trying to find out if using a sequence table will provide values that are as unique as the GUID is supposed to be.The reason is that I'm building a DW from the ground up (they won't let me expense my booze which I think is grossly unfair ) and rather than using GUID it ~seems~ like a sequence table would give better results. My concern is that the values won't be unique across tables.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a procedure which updates a sequence number in a table such as the one below.
Seq Sequence_Id
------ ------------------
NextNum 1
This is the procedure ...
create procedure DBO.MIG_SYS_NEXTVAL(@sequence varchar(10), @sequence_id int)
as
begin
update mig_sys_sequences
set
@sequence_id = sequence_id = sequence_id + 1
where
seq = 'CSN'
return(@sequence_id)
end
The purpose of this is to generate a sequential number each time the procedure is called. This number would then be used in a number of different tables to allocate a unique id so that the id is unique across the different tables.
1). What is the most efficient way of allocating these unique ids? The tables that I plan to update will already be populated with data.
2). How would I call the above procedure from an UPDATE statement?
Many thanks,
Fred
Hi all,
In my project i will have the data in a collection of objects, I need to update series of tables with foreign key relations
Right now my code looks like this
foreach(object obj in Objects){
int accountId=Account.Insert(obj.accountOpenDate,obj.accountName);//this will update the accounts table and returns account id which is a Identity column in Acccounts table
int DebtId=Debt.Insert(accountd,obj.debtamount,obj.debtbalance); this will update the Debts table and returns DebtId
///series of tables like above but all the relevant data comes from obj and in the Insert Methods i am using stored procedures to Insert the data into table
}
The no of objects varies from 1000 to 1 milliion,, with this approach its taking more time to update all the data. Please let me know if any alternative procedure to handle this kind of scenario.
Thanks

I've been working on an SSIS package trying to load some data and the archive sequence is faulty. I've been trying to load a few tables created in a previous sequence into a local archive file and I've been getting the error "Could not find a part of the path."
The results aren't telling me what it's finding last and so I don't know where to start.
And the source DOES have data in it. It's something between the source and the destination.
Hi all, I need some your help.
I want to add sequence number to data flow below:
Cust_Name | Month
=======================
Chonnathan | 5
Chonnathan | 4
Chonnathan | 7
Derec | 3
Derec | 9
and the result i need is:
SEQ_nbr | Cust_Name | Month
================================
1 | Chonnathan | 4
2 | Chonnathan | 5
3 | Chonnathan | 7
1 | Derec | 3
2 | Derec | 9
How can I do it in Integration Service to show like the above?
Thank you for your respones,

Please find the necessary SQL to create the table with sample data down below.In this simple table, I'm keeping project status logs i.e. what project, what happened and when.I want to create a select statement that will give me the ProjectId and the time stamps from "Contract Signed" to "First Meeting". So, I'd like my data to look like this:
ProjectId - FromStatus - FromTimeStamp - ToStatus - ToTimeStamp
123 - 'Contract Signed' - 6/21/2015 3:33PM - 'First Meeting' - 6/27/2015 8:45AM
456 - 'Contract Signed' - 6/25/2015 9:00AM - 'First Meeting' - 6/29/2015 2:50PM
987 - 'Contract Signed' - 9/29/2015 11:00AM - 'First Meeting' - 7/11/2015 10:00AM
Please notice that in my SELECT statement, I don't want to see anything else. For example, I don't want ProjectId: 555 included because it never made it to "First Meeting". I also don't want to see any information about "Press Release" for ProjectId: 123. I only want to see those projects that went from "Contract Signed" to "First Meeting".

hi
where i can find some data bases to see how the sequence clustering works?.
thanks a lot
I have one Data flow, which trasfer data into two table (Parent & Child) .
My question is : Is there a way, i can load data first into parent and then child table. because child table getting load first after that parent table loading. (Execution should be Source Parent --> Destination Parent) First , (Source Child --> Destination Child) Second.
In my case its executing reverse. So i have foreign key constraints at child table , its giving foreign contraints error while running ssis package
Can any one tell me,
How to define my own sequence execution at the Data flow task (Source - Destination) ?
Thanks
I have the following table:
Policy Sequence LossDate Description Amt

123 2 10-1-2012 property 200
345 1 9-1-2012 property 100
345 2 10-1-2012 property 100
678 1 9-1-2012 property 100
I want to select the data as follows:
Policy LossDate1 Description1 Amt1 LossDate2 Description2 Amt2
123 9-1-2012 property 100 10-1-2012 property 200
345 9-1-2012 property 100 10-1-2012 property 100
678 9-1-2012 property 100 NULL NULL NULL
Is there a way to do this using T-SQL?
The max sequence number can vary, so far the max has been 12, but may be higher in the future.
I am creating a staging database in which I am loading required tables from 2 different sources.
I have 30 different tables to load from source 1 and 10 different tables from source 2.
This is the way I am doing, in Control flow task I am using Sequence container and in that I included the data flow task, the data flow task
has source OLD DB connection from where I select the table and then destination OLE DB connection where I load the data.
So for 30 tables I have one Sequence container with 30 different data flow task and each data flow task has OLE DB source and OLD DB destination.
I wanted to find out if this is the efficient way to do, or if there is any other way to do this.
And for source 2 shall I put in another package or shall I use the same package with different sequence container and follow the same steps
as for Source 1 tables.
Please advice.
Thanks,
I have a question in SQL server. For example I have a table which has two column like following table and I don't know how can I update theses two column with identity numbers but just the fields which are equal 111.
Example table:
numez numhx
111 111
111 111
0 111
111 0
111 0
and my results should be:
numez numhx
1 2
3 4
0 5
6 0
7 0
Hi,
I would like to know different possible ways in appending extra values like new uniqueidentifiers, sequence numbers, random number. Can you please tell what type of data flow components helps us ?
I have a database that has entries that I want sorted by date order. Each entry has an auto ID number allocated (primary key auto sequencing), which I want to change to reflect the sorting (so the first date has the first auto ID number and so on).I've gone into the database and sorted the entries as I want them. Then I've gone into Design View to delete and restablish the primary key autosequence. However, it is not keeping the date order in the database (ie entry ID 3140 date is 12/06/2015, but 3141 is 02/02/2012). How do I get it to maintain the order?

Hi all,
I have a large Excel file with one large table which contains data, i've built a SQL Server DataBase and i want to fill it with the data from the excel file.
How can it be done?
Thanks, Michael.
I have created 3 views, which I then want to join to produce an overall result. The first view returns customer details, along with payment information. The next two views return values only when the customer has purchased extras outside our standard product i.e. if there is no purchase of an extra, then nothing is written to the extra's table. When I join the views together they only return values where data has been matched in all 3 views i.e. extra's have been purchased. Any data that did not match in all 3 view (i.e. no extra's purchased) is either ignored or dropped from the results. So I need my script to return all values even if no data exists in the two extra views.
My scripts are as follows:

I have a report where in I have a combination of matrix ,table data regions.
The problem what I am facing is that the data tables don't remain fixed in their position and they tend to move down.
E.g. table 1 and table 2 are on the same page in design time side by side (right and left)however during the runtime the table1 is pushed down and table2 is at its position .
Now how can I keep them all fixed in their same position. Most of the tables have fixed size rows and some who have high size of rows have been put at the end . What settings we can set?
I'm working on archiving data from some tables. I've duplicated the data structure, with the exception of not including the IDENTITY specifier on INT columns, so that the archive table will keep the value that was generated in the original table. This is all going well, until I tried to copy the data over where the column is specified as a timestamp data type. I've looked this up and found a couple of things. First, documentation for SQL 2000 says,
Timestamp is a data type that exposes automatically generated binary numbers, which are guaranteed to be unique within a database. Timestamp is used typically as a mechanism for version-stamping table rows. The storage size is 8 bytes.
And then documentation for the soon to be released SQL 2016 on the rowversion data type says,
The timestamp syntax is deprecated. This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
and
Is a data type that exposes automatically generated, unique binary numbers within a database. rowversion is generally used as a mechanism for version-stamping table rows. The storage size is 8 bytes. The rowversion data type is just an incrementing number and does not preserve a date or a time.
OK, I've read the descriptions, but I don't get it. Why have a timestamp/rowversion data type?
Everytime I run the load packages that I have built into the MDS staging the tables, in MDS_Staging, get cleared down and then repopulated. When the MDS database gets new data it appends it and does not clear down the data that is already in the database and is there fore hold duplicate rows.
Is there a way of truncating the tables in the MDS database before populating again with the new data from the MDS_Staging database so as to not hold duplicate rows?
Hi,

Hi,
I have a question with this query -
SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE column1 = 'T_C_%';
This query returns rows where column1 = "T_Care", "T_CRP" etc etc, whereas I was expecting only rows where column1 = "T_C_Tail", "T_C_Head"
However, when I use an escape character(/), the results are more in the lines of the expected results.
Can somebody explain this?

I have the following stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ABR_HDR_INSERT

SELECT @seq_no = convert(integer, max(right(abrid, 4)))

WHERE left(abrid, 7) = @ay + @ddo
-- convert @seq_no to string prefix by 0
SELECT @abrid = @ay + @ddo + right('0000' + rtrim(convert(char(4), @seq_no)), 4)

@mode,
DDO,
AY,
REQUESTOR,

@status
FROM dbo.Temp_ABR_HDR
SELECT @id = @@identity
return @id
GO
ABRID gets inserted as a <NULL> value. I can't figure out why? If I comment out the following then ABRID will insert without the sequence number:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ABR_HDR_INSERT
@id int output,
@status int,
@mode int,
@sessid varchar(100)

WHERE b.SESSIONID = @sessid
SELECT @ay = AY
FROM dbo.Temp_ABR_HDR
WHERE SESSIONID = @sessid
-- set the default seq_no
--SELECT @seq_no = 1
-- get the max abrid. if no record return the seq_no will be 1
--SELECT @seq_no = convert(integer, max(right(abrid, 4)))
--FROM dbo.ABR_HDR

-- convert @seq_no to string prefix by 0
--SELECT @abrid = @ay + @ddo + right('0000' + rtrim(convert(char(4),@seq_no)), 4)
SELECT @abrid = @ay + UPPER(@ddo)

@mode,
DDO,
AY,
REQUESTOR,
DT,
SUBJECT,
DESCRIPTION,
@status
FROM dbo.Temp_ABR_HDR
SELECT @id = @@identity
return @id

So, the code that sets the sequence number is what is causing the <NULL> value.
Any help is appreciated.
