I am using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. One table contains field docdate having format dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:yyyy. Here hours & mins are also required.
I am working on VB6.0. User will input date on form in format 'dd/MM/yyyy'. I just want to check this with SQL Server date considering only dd/MM/yyyy.
How to do this?
I need to compare two tables and output everything that doesn't match.
The tables are joined by the "domainname" column, and I need to output everything in both tables where the "domainname" doesn't match.
Any ideas?
Language : VB.NET
Database : MSSQLserver2000
i have developed a tool to compare two databases, but it is taking long time to compare. First it will take the whole table into main memory(order by primary key). Same procedure for table2 of second database. Then it will start comparison by taking row by row. i tested with one third party tool, which is taking only 2 min to compare 800000 records of a table. My tool is taking 1 hour,40 mins to do that. Is there any other optimized method?

How could I tell the performance difference between two queries:
One is:
select * from table
where Lower(colomnname) = 'value'
The other is:
select * from table
where colomnname = 'value'
Basically the difference is in lower() function, how much this function will affect the query performance.
Is there a formal way to test it out, or by any logic.
Thanks, Mike
Hi,Does any of u folks used any tools for database structures comparision??
I have used DBDIFF(from DKGAS.com) ChangeManager from Embarcadaro and SQL COMPARE from Redgate.
I did have have some problem in each of these tools AND am looking for some good tools which are economical also.

Do you know some performance differences between reading data from a stored procedure using:
1. OLE DB Connection and OLE DB Source
2. ADO.NET Connection and DatareaderSource

Dear all,
I have building an authitication mecanism through a database standard login table as :
UserName varchar
PassWord varchar
UserId Identity
From my client application I need to validate the username and the password.
For that I have a store procedure with the following statement :
SELECT @loginID = Id from [NomosConfig].[dbo].Users
WHERE [UserName]=@UserName
AND [PassWord] = @pw
From that point this works well except that for the passowrd, whre of course there will be no difference between:
PassWor = myPassw or MYPASSW
How can I check in password field in order that it is case sensitive....?
Later on, the password will be encrypted of course, will it behaves similar ?
thnaks for help

1) Crystal Reports provides extensive parameter support. The types of parameters supported are: single value, multi-value, and range value (e.g. Start date to End date), or a combination of all three.
2) SSRS parameters only support entry of a single value. It doesn't support multi-value parameters or range parameters. For example, the user can't be presented with a list of Employees and select more than one for reporting on. Doing so requires writing custom code and writing more complex SQL queries
My question is concerned with the three columns below (customerID, RepairDate, CompletedRepair (Yes or No). The column name "CompletedRepair " is blank initially. I need to update the CompletedRepair column with this logic below:
- A customer comes to our store to fix their car, if we fix their problem on the first time and they dont return later for this same issue, then the
CompletedRepair column = Y
- If a customer needs to come back to our store to re-fix the same issue within 7 days windows based on the RepairDate on the previous transaction then
On the last return transaction: CompletedRepair = Y (example: RepairDate =6/12/2006)
On all previous transactions: CompletedRepair = N (example: RepairDate =6/8/2006, 6/9/2006, 6/10/2006)
- If a customer needs to come back to our store to re-fix the same issue but out of the 7 days windows based on the RepairDate then
On the last return transaction: CompletedRepair = Y (RepairDate =6/12/2006)
On the previous transaction: CompletedRepair = Y (RepairDate =6/1/2006)
Every time customer comes to for car repair shop for a new issue or an old issue, we create a new repair transaction in our SQL db. The update on the "CompletedRepair " column will be run every day. Today's records will be run against with last 7 days records (based on Repair Date) to check when customer has been really fixed: the last fix counted Y, the previous fix counted as N but comparison in only 7 days. In other words, a repair today is considered as a completed repair when comparing with last 7 day repairs but it might become not a completed repair if this same customer would come back within next 7 days for the same issue.
The CompletedRepair column is dynamic column and is updated daily by using the logic above.
Below is the expected outcome after we update the Completed Repair column:
CustomerID Repair DateCompleted Repair
ab1 06/12/06 Y
ab1 05/28/06 Y
ab1 05/18/06 Y
ab105/15/06 N
ab1 05/12/06 N
Initially 5/12/06 had Y, when 5/15/06 transaction came, it took the Y and made the 5/12/06 become N. The 5/18/06 transaction did the same to 5/15/06 transaction, made itself Y and converted 5/15/06 into N. The 5/28/06 is Y because comparing with 5/18/06, it is out of 7 days window. The 6/12/2006 is Y because comparing with 5/28/06, it is out of 7 days window.
ab2 06/02/06 Y
ab2 05/28/06 N
ab2 04/19/06 Y
ab2 04/14/06 N
The 4/14/06 transaction initially was Y, it became N when new transaction on 4/19/06 came. Same thing with transactions on 5/28/06 and 6/2/06
ab3 05/11/06 Y
ab3 03/29/06 Y
ab3 03/23/06 N
ab3 03/12/06 Y
The 3/23/06 was Y, when new transaction on 3/29/06 came, it became N and the new transaction is Y. The 5/11/06 is Y because comparing back to 3/29/06, they are out of 7 days window.
ab4 05/11/06 Y
This ab4 customer came to fix her car only one time and don't come back. We supposed the fix was sucessfully and so we mark the CompletedRepair as Y.
I think that I would need to use SQL cursor or case statement for this but I really don't know how to start. Please advice and help me out. Any ideas and suggestion are really appreciated! If you need more information, please let me know!
Thank you!

I am working on a technical design of data integration ETL package which will be moving data from SQL Server Source to DB2 destination. I currently have two options, when moving data to DB2(IBM AS400). I can call a AS400 Stored Procedure, and pass in the data to the stored procedure, and perform the insert processing within the AS400 environment or I could do inserts from SSIS in a DFT and write individually to AS400 tables. My question is from a performance and good practice perspective, which method should I move forward with. I need a possible list of pros- and cons when using AS400 Sproc vs using SQL within SSIS? I would really appreciate response from individuals who have done something similar in the past. Thanks a lot and I am really looking forward to responses.

My goal is to select values from the same date range for a month on month view to compare values month over month. I've tried using the date trunc function but I'm not sure what the best way to attack this is. My thoughts are I need to somehow select first day of every month + interval 'x days' (but I don't know the syntax).In other words, I want to see
Select

feb 1-23rd
march 1-23rd

I am trying to find a beginning date from multiple date ranges, for example:

308203492012-09-042013-09-02
408203492011-12-122012-07-03--not a continuous date range
For this id: 0793319, my beginning date is 2012-09-04
108203492014-09-022015-06-30
For this id: 0820349, my beginning date is 2014-09-02
To find continuous date, you look at the beginning date in row 1 and end date in row 2, then if no break in dates, row 2 beginning date to row 3 end date, if no break continue until last date There could multiple dates up to 12 which I have to check for "no break" in dates, if break, display beginning date of last continuous date.
I want to compare two columns in the same table called start date and end date for one clientId.if clientId is having continuous refenceid and sartdate and enddate of reference that I don't need any caseopendate but if clientID has new reference id and it's start date is not continuous to its previous reference id then I need to set that start date as caseopendate.

Hi,
Basically the above is a very common requirement, please comment on my solution which I've arrived at by searching through the web; -
In summary I have used 3 SSIS components these are "Flat File Source", "Derived Column" and "SQL Server Destination".
1) File Connections Manager Editor
1.1) Within File Connections Manager Editor; -
Name the data type e.g. "INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC"
and assign a type to the data type e.g. string[DT_STR]
1.2) Click on the Preview button to ensure the expected text is assigned to the expected data type.
2) Derived Column Transformation Editor
2.1) Assign Derived Column Name, e.g.
INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE
2.2) Select <add as new column> within Derived Column.
2.3) Enter the conversion Expression, e.g. ; -
2.3.1)
(SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,8,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,5,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,1,4))
2.3.2)
Since the above conversion is such a common task I suggest that Service Pack 3 of SQL Server 2005 delivers the following functionality; -
STRINGTODATE ('YYYYMMDD',INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC)
2.4) Select "database timestamp [DT_DBTIMESTAMP] " as Data Type.
2.5) Within the Mappings tab of the SQL Destination Editor have; -
Input Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE and
Destination Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE.
Please comment on the above, I will then pass on my suggestion to Microsoft.
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.
Hi there.
I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE')
Can anyone out there help?
Please advise. Thanks.
Best.

how can i select all dates upto todays date and include the first next future date in a given data base
say todays date was the 01/06/2006 (MM,DD,YYYY)
below is a mock data base
id date (MM,DD,YYYY)
1 01/02/2006
2 01/04/2006
3 01/06/2006
4 01/09/2006
5 01/20/2006
i want to select all dates equal or less that 01/06/2006 and include the first next future date .. and in this case it would be 01/09/2006
so the results would return
1 01/02/2006
2 01/04/2006
3 01/06/2006
4 01/09/2006

The insert column I am trying to get into is a date type. The original state of the field is YYYYMM varchar. How to get this into the table.
I asked this question below, but the answer was that the conversion will take place automatically, but I can't get that to happen. I have a flat file with an 8 position field that I identify as string (and I also tried date) that is yyyymmdd and it needs to go into the database field that is datetime format. IS there something I am doing wrong with the definition of it, or do I need to add some kind of conversion, and if so, what and how would that be done. I'm a dts Sql2000 expert, but the SSIS thing is driving me crazy. I have a ton of dts' to convert and the migration tool doesn't work because there are a lot of active X scripts in them. thanks for your help. Boston Rose

A server with SQL 2005 sp2, Reporting Services and Sharepoint services (ver 3.0) (in integrated mode) gives an odd error. When viewing a Reporting Services report with a Date Time Picker, the date chosen is wrong. The preferred setting is Danish with the date format dd-mm-yyyy. The date picker shows the months in Danish but when selecting a date, and clicking on the Apply-button, the date reformats to US (mm-dd-yyyy).
Example:
When choosing 5th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows in the picker, 9th of May 2007.
When choosing 26th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows, again in US format, the RIGHT date but adds a timestamp 12:00 AM? in the end, making further enquiries to fail.
The report itself receives the right date and shows correctly. The only case it fails is, when the time stamp appears.
The server is a 32-bit one with 4 GB RAM. A testserver with identical collation on the Reportserver database cannot recreate the error. The site containing the reports has been set to Danish in the regional settings. To Reinstall is not an option.
The test report has no database connection whatsoever.
When setting the site to US, the timestamp wont appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
