Database Tables And User Names
Jan 26, 2007
We have recently copied a database from one machine to another. On the old machine, when we access the tables we do not need to use the username.tablename convention to query them. On the new box we do.
For example, to query a table called Page we would nee to do this on the new box.
SELECT *
FROM webdev.page
unfortunately all the code is written, without the username prefix. Is there a way to not use the username prefix?
Thank you for your help...sorry for the newbie type question.

I create a user then I create a database and assign my newly created user as owner
When I login as this new user everything works fine BUT my newly created user can still see other database names even though he is not allowed to use them.
How can I prevent him from seeing other database names.
P.S. I use the GUI
Thank you

I'm not a full-time DBA, so excuse my style of expressing my question.I have a database which has 2 tables in SQL 2005. Both these tables have similar column names, EXCEPT for new extra columns in FY2007_DATA. I can visually see the difference in columns in Database Diagrams. My goal is to :- I want to compare FY2007 tbl column names to FY2006 column names and display only those columns as results that do not match.Tbl 1 :- FY2006_DATA Tbl 2:-
FY2007_DATA
With online reading and help I have managed to get this script to do exactly opposite of what i want. Below is the query
/* This query compares the column names from two tables and displays the ones that have an exact match. It does not care for case-sensitiveness */
Select a.Table_Name, a.Column_Name, (b.Table_Name), (b.column_name)
From [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS a
Join [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS b on a.Column_Name = b.Column_Name
Where a.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2006_DATA'
And b.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA'
AND a.Column_Name IN
(Select Column_Name = LEFT(c.column_name, 20) FROM
[H1B_2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS c WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA' )
When I change "AND a.Column_Name IN.." to "AND a.Column_Name NOT IN.." so that the results will (should) display the extra columns in FY2007, in fact I do not see any results, but query executes perfect.
How can I achieve my goal.?
Thank you

The database has approx. 2500 temporary tables. The temp tables match a pattern such as APTMP... I tried deleting the tables in SSMS with the statement, Delete from Information_Schema.tables where substring(table_name,1,5) = 'APTMP' This returns the error message"Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed".
What is the correct way to delete a group of tables whose name match a pattern from within SSMS?

I am using the following select statement to get the row count from SQL linked server table.
SELECT Count(*) FROM OPENQUERY (CMSPROD, 'Select * From MHDLIB.MHSERV0P')
MHDLIB is the library name in IBM DB2 database. The above query gives me only the row count of table MHSERV0P. However, I need to get the names, rowcounts, and sizes of all tables that exist in MHDLIB librray. Is it possible at all?

We have a person who CAN connect to a named instance in SQL Server Management Studio. There is nothing in the log for a failed login for him. However, when he tries to expand the Tables folder under the only user database in the instance, he gets the error: Failed to retrieve data for this request (Microsoft.SQLServer.SmoEnum). Additional Information: An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. Select permission denied on object 'extended_properties',database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'(Microsoft SQL Server, Error:229).
He is trying to expand the Tables folder under a database named ADSALLDB. He can see the folder as well as the other folders (i.e. Views, Synonyms, Programmability,etc.), but can't expand any of them. He can expand the folders under the system databases.
Other uses set up just like him can connect. He is set up with read/write access to the database ADSALLDB. He can expand the system databases.
This is a named instance in a 6 node cluster. SQL Server 2005 SP1 Build Level 2221.
Thank you for any help.

Firstly I consider myself quite an experienced SQL Server user, andamnow using SQL Server 2005 Express for the main backend of mysoftware.My problem is thus: The boss needs to run reports; I have designedthese reports as SQL procedures, to be executed through an ASPapplication. Basic, and even medium sized (10,000+ records) reportingrun at an acceptable speed, but for anything larger, IIS timeouts andquery timeouts often cause problems.I subsequently came up with the idea that I could reduce processingtimes by up to two-thirds by writing information from eachcalculationstage to a number of tables as the reporting procedure runs..ie. stage 1, write to table xxx1,stage 2 reads table xxx1 and writes to table xxx2,stage 3 reads table xxx2 and writes to table xxx3,etc, etc, etcprocedure read final table, and outputs information.This works wonderfully, EXCEPT that two people can't run the samereport at the same time, because as one procedure creates and writesto table xxx2, the other procedure tries to drop the table, or read atable that has already been dropped....Does anyone have any suggestions about how to get around thisproblem?I have thought about generating the table names dynamically using'sp_execute', but the statement I need to run is far too long(apparently there is a maximum length you can pass to it), and evenbreaking it down into sub-procedures is soooooooooooooooo timeconsuming and inefficient having to format statements as strings(replacing quotes and so on)How can I use multiple tables, or indeed process HUGE procedures,withdynamic table names, or temporary tables?All answers/suggestions/questions gratefully received.Thanks

I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.

I am trying to retrieve the user names of all users within a database. The problem is, that I have only created a login within SQL 7.0 for the NT group that the users belong to.
As such, when I try to query the syslogins table I only get the NT group.
Is there any way of retrieving the users that belong to this NT group.
Any help or suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Karl

I want to establish logging using NT Security. The problem is that user names in NT have underscore(_). When I establish NT Scurity in SQL security manager, SQL Server tries to add blank names as login id and they will not go through. Is it manadatory to remove underscore from username?
Because of structrual hierarchy, I have different groups in NT to be mapped to SQL Server groups and each group has different permission on SQL tables. In some cases we might have same users in more than one group. I read that it is not possible if you use NT integrated security. Is there any thing that can be worked around this and is this problem still exists in SQL 7.
Thank you in advance

I am a SSIS novice, and need help to do the following:
Every day a Table is generated by the system of format XR+present Year + present month + present day. My task is pretty simple. I am to devise a SSIS package that will import this table on to a different server.
I have defined the variable as user defined variable. I am also able to specify the variable in OLE db source editor -> Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable. When I am click the 'Columns' feature, I get the following error
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E37.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: Opening a rowset for "xr+ convert(char(8),getdate(), 112)" failed. Check that the object exists in the database.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC02020E8 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
In short can any one tell me a correct way of using a table name as variable in
Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable ?
One other question: can I make use of a dynamic SQL in Execute SQL Task? If yes, how do I write the query
exec( 'select * from ' + @table)
or just
select * from @table
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I want to pass user-defined column names to views or procedures
I am using SQL Server 2005 Express.
I tried this.
CREATE PROCEDURE @userDefinedColumn varChar(10) = 'My_Column'
select @userDefinedColumn, count(ID) as [Total Records] from My_Table
GROUP BY @userDefinedColumn
This was not accepted. It won't allow a user defined parameter in the group by.
But I need to pass user defined parameters to views as well.

Using VB5|6/ADO/MSSQL6.5. I want to get the names of tables in a query. I.e. if query is "Select Name, Title from Employee inner join job on employee.empid = job.empid" I want a way to get "Name, Title"
In VB 3 we used the VBSQL.VBX which had 2 functions for this: SQLTabCount and SQLTabName.
Thanks in advance

dp ++++++++++++++++++
see my responses below
dp ++++++++++++++++++
if u need to get "Name" and "Title" - u're trying to get column(field) names??
-or-
if u need to get table names involved in a query - u need to get "Employee" and "Job"
so what exactly do u need??
********
dp ++++++++++++++++++
My bad... I wanted Employee, Job. The Table names.
dp ++++++++++++++++++
if u need to see column names - u can use Fields collection to get all fields in a recordset
I don't know if there's a way to get table names of tables involved in a query, in ADO.in RDO there's a property of a rdoColumn object to get table name (which doesn't work always anyway).
********
dp ++++++++++++++++++
actually this can be done in ADO. You can get the table from which the column was derived by using rs.fields(##).properties("BASETABLENAME") but I don't want to rely on this because I may not have a field from each table... What I really want is creat a recorset and ask it what tables it's drawing from. Again, VBSQL had SQLTabCount which gave you the number of tables in the query and then SQLTabName would give you the names by table number
dp ++++++++++++++++++
or, in select statement u can aliases:
select Name as 'Employee_Name',
title as 'Job_Title'
from employee, job
where employee.job_id = job.job_id
so, when you get all fields from fields collection, u can check field name
dp ++++++++++++++++++
yeah... i'll do this if I have to... looking for a better way (hopefully) first
dp ++++++++++++++++++
********
or , u can use ODBC API functions to get that information (for example using SQLColumns() function) - but, u'll need to connect first, to get connection handle, then prepare or execute statement to get statement handle, and then get information about columns (and table names).
dp ++++++++++++++++++
this sounds interesting.... where might I find more info about this??? If i create an ado recorset, will I be able to "analyze" it in this way via ODBC?

Is there a way that you could get the column names for each table in a database using 1 query?
something like:
tbl colname
t1 catID
t1 catName
t2 prodID
t2 prodDesc
t3 cartID
...
...
I know it would be long, but I would just be searching through the saved output for specific names.

I am relatively new to sql developer. There is a new user that just joined our organization. I am trying to grant him the same direct grants privilege to the tables that an existing user has. The existing user has a ton of direct table access privileges and it will take days if I had to do each grant one by one like: grant select,insert,delete,update on 'table name' to 'user id'. Is there a way of copying or inserting an existing user's privilege and granting it to a new user.

If you need to inner join 2 tables that have some columns names that are the same, how can you have those columns be named differently in the query result without aliasing them individually?
Tried select a.*,b.* from tbldm a,tblap b where a.id=b.id hoping the col names in the result would have the a.s and b.s in front of them but they didn't.

I have two different tables... one for all Staff, and another for all Temp Staff. I need both to output to a datagrid, and so I need to grab both tables from a SQL query to output to my datagrid, but I can't seem to get the logic right for it to work. Can someone give me some suggestions on why my results are blank when I'm running this query? I thought a simple join would allow both sets of identical column names to coexist in peace...SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT dbo.StaffDirectory.UserName, dbo.StaffDirectory.LastName, dbo.StaffDirectory.FirstName, dbo.StaffDirectory.Dept, dbo.StaffDirectory.Title, dbo.StaffDirectory.EMail, dbo.StaffDirectory.LocationFROM dbo.StaffDirectory INNER JOIN dbo.TempStaff ON dbo.StaffDirectory.Location = dbo.TempStaff.Location AND dbo.StaffDirectory.EMail = dbo.TempStaff.Email AND dbo.StaffDirectory.Title = dbo.TempStaff.Title AND dbo.StaffDirectory.Dept = dbo.TempStaff.Dept AND dbo.StaffDirectory.FirstName = dbo.TempStaff.FName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.LastName = dbo.TempStaff.LName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.UserName = dbo.TempStaff.UName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.MDNo = dbo.TempStaff.MDNoIs something wrong here? It just doesn't work =(Any suggestions would be really appreciated.Thank you

To make it multi user. I want to create table such as A_Username.

Such dynamic table name refrencing , how can it be done.. Is creating a string for the query and then executing it using sp_exec the only option?
