Database Diagrams : Showing Relations Column To Column

Dec 19, 2005

Hi to all,

As I am going to deal with a huge number of database tables, I thought that drawing their diagrams will be the most professional way of keeping track of what I am doing. So In Enterprise Manager using the Wizard I made it to be drawn nicely.

 

But I have a problem now. I see that the relations defined among the tables are represented correctly but the line connecting the two table is drawn randomly. I mean the starting point of the line doesnt start from the column having the primary key and doesnt end near to the column having the foreign key. Viewing my diagram I want to see the lines to start and end showing the 2 related key columns.

Is there a way to accomplish this like setting an option, clicking somewhere or should I try to drag the lines to manually?

Thanks in advance

Change Display Of Result Set From Showing As Rows To Column As One Or More

May 13, 2014

I am interested in changing the way that data is displayed in my result set.Essentially I want to display a selection of rows (1 to n) as columns, the following diagram explains my intentions.Perhaps one of the greatest challenges here is the fact that I do not have a concrete number of rows (or BIN numbers). Each stock item could be stored in one or more BINS, which I will not know until running my query.

Reporting Services :: Hiding Column Based On A String Value But Showing It For Others?

Nov 20, 2015

I need to hide a column just for certain values from a table like contract decorators I tried using

=IIF(Fields!MainTrade.Value = "Contracts Decorator, Bricklayer", True, False)

But it just hid the column for all values, then i tried this but it doesn't seem to work (Think it's not correct though)

=IIF(Instr("Contracts Decorator, Bricklayer","," & Fields!MainTrade.Value & ",") > 0,true , false).

Below is the table and the highlighted column i am trying to hide just for those two fields. The table has a page break so that it would be displayed on a different page for each value, but i'm not sure it is possible as i have only done it for integers and rows before.

Copy Database With Encrypted Column To New Server And Decrypt Column There

Aug 17, 2006

To do this successfully do I need to backup the Service master, Database master, and database itself from the the Source server, then restore all three of them on the destination server?

(I'm concerned that restoring the source Service Master key to a new target server with an existing sql 2005 install will screw things up big time.)

TIA,

How To Refer A Column When The Referencing Column Is An Identity Column

Oct 16, 2006

Hi all,

The requirement is to have a table say 'child_table', with an Identity column to refer another column from a table say 'Parent_table'..

i cannot implement this constraint, it throws the error when i execute the below Alter query,

ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id)
REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE CASCADE

the error thrown is :
Failed to execute alter table query: 'ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT
fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id) REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE
CASCADE '. Message: java.sql.SQLException: Cascading foreign key 'fk_1_ct' cannot be
created where the referencing column 'child_table.child_id' is an identity column.

any workarounds for this ?

TSQL - Using ALTER TABLE - ALTER COLUMN To Modify Column Type / Set Identity Column

Sep 7, 2007

Hi guys,
If I have a temporary table called #CTE
With the columns
[Account]
[Name]
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
and I need to change the column type for the columns:
[RowID Table Level]

to integer, and set the column [RowID Table Level] as Identity (index) starting from 1, incrementing 1 each time.
What will be the right syntax using SQL SERVER 2000?

I am trying to solve the question in the link below:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2093921&SiteID=1

Thanks in advance,

I have tried the code below, but getting syntax error...



ALTER TABLE #CTE
ALTER COLUMN
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),
[RowID Data Level] INT;


I have also tried:

ALTER TABLE #CTE
MODIFY
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),
[RowID Data Level] INT;

Alter Table Add Column - How Do You Add A Column After Say The Second Column

Jul 11, 2007



When you use "Alter Table add Column", it adds the column to the end of the list of fields.



How do you insert the new column to position number 2 for instance given that you may have more than 2 columns?



Create table T1 ( a varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20))



Alter table add column x varchar(20)

so that the resulting table is

T1 a varchar(20), x varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20)



Can this be done programmatically?

Export Whole Database With Relations And Keys

Sep 21, 2006

Hi,

I've been trying to export a whole database from one server to another (connected through a local network) but the keys always get lost: when I open the diagrame I can actually see them just before the tables names appear. I've tried inserting the primary keys for each table manually with the export wizard, which took me some time, but no relations were exported. Any way of doing this automatically?

DataBase Diagrams

Nov 29, 2007

In our organization, we are using SQL Server 2005 Management studio as the client interface to access all our enterprise Databases.Most of the databases are built on SQL 2005 DB Server.
However, We have one of the Database built on SQL Server 2000, which also has Database diagrams in it. Though We are able to view all the DB objects through SQL 2005 managment studio interface, but unable to view the diagrams.
I understand that, the binary data of the diagrams are stored in "dtproperties" table on SQL 2000 but in SQL 2005, it is stored in "sysobjects"(not sure) table and both are entirely different.

Following are my questions.
1.Since the DB is still on SQL 2000,How can we view the diagram objects thru the SQL 2005 Enterprise manager.

2.For the migration process of SQL 2000 to SQL 2005, How can i migrate the database diagrams.

Appreciate the responses.

ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN LastUpdated Failed Because One Or More Objects Access This Column.

Exclude Records From A Table Where ID Column Is Same But Mail Code Column Is Multi-valued

Nov 12, 2012

I am trying to exclude records from a table where the ID column is the same but the Mail code Column is multi-valued.For Example: (the table looks like....)

ID Mail_code
111111 XNT
111111 N11
111111 XNC
222222 XNC
222222 XNL
333333 XNC

So, if there is any ID that has a value of XNC, I want to exclude the ID all together from my output regardless of the other values.

Cast/Convert Mmddyy In String To New DB_DATETIMESTAMP Column In Derived Column Transformation

Mar 5, 2007

Hi,
I have dates in "mmddyy" format coming from the sources and they are older dates of mid 80s like 082580 for instance.

When I cast it this way (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) Source_Date , It says ok but throws a runtime error.

When I hardcode a date in same format, (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) "082580" , It becomes red (an indication of syntax error) . Please note that we use double quotes in expressions in Derived Column Transformation; So an anticipation that using double quotes over single ones would be the syntax problem would be wrong.



Any help in this will sincerely be appreciated.


Thanks

Reporting Services :: Add A Variance Column Into SSRS Report Where Column Headers Are Non-static?

May 13, 2015

I am creating a report in SSRS which has the following criteria:

- Row 1 (parent) is 'Product'

- Row 2 (child) is  'Feed'

- Columns are date.  I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top.  The date field is set up as a parameter so depending on the date the user selects, the report will show that date on the end column and then the 4 days prior to that in the other columns.   

 - Data is the number of records.

I have a sub total on the Product and the report is collapsed on Product as default.

What i'm stuck on is trying to insert a column at the very end that will show the variance between the last two dates.  So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Cannot Define Primary Key Constraint On Nullable Column But Column Not Null

Sep 30, 2014

We have a database where many tables have a field that has to be lengthened. In some cases this is a primary key or part of a primary key. The table in question is:-

/****** Object: Table [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] Script Date: 09/25/2014 14:05:09 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd](

[Code] ....

The script I am using is

DECLARE@Column varchar(100)--The name of the column to change
DECLARE@size varchar(5)--The new size of the column
DECLARE @TSQL varchar(255)--Contains the code to be executed
DECLARE @Object varchar(50)--Holds the name of the table
DECLARE @dropc varchar(255)-- Drop constraint script

[Code] ....

When I the the script I get the error message Could not create constraint. See previous errors.

Looking at the strings I build

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] DROP CONSTRAINT PK_DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] Alter Column [Patient System Number] varchar(10)
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd] ADD CONSTRAINT PK_DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED ([Patient System Number] ASC,[Episode Number] ASC,[CensusDate] ASC)
WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]

They all seem fine except the last one which returns the error

Msg 8111, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot define PRIMARY KEY constraint on nullable column in table 'DTb_HWSQueueMonthEnd'.
Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.

None of the fields I try to create the key on are nullable.
