I got an error as follows:
Derived table 'A' is not updatable because a column of the derived table is derived or constant.
when I tried to run this query:
update A set MonthsUnbilled =99999888
FROM (select MonthsUnbilled from dbo.vw_MasterView
WHERE (RecordID =8377396)) A
This is a simplified query in order to pinpoint the culprit. I know I don't need to use a derived table if the real query is this simple.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
In the SQL92 Specifications i read the foloowingf statement...
"All base tables are updatable. Derived tables are either updatable or read-only. The operations of insert, update, and delete are
permitted for updatable tables, subject to constraining Access
Rules. The operations of insert, update, and delete are not allowed
for read-only tables."
But i am concentrating on the below line from the above written lines,
"Derived tables are either updatable or read-only."
I want to ask that is derived tables are updatable or not??? if yes then how,???i tried the following querry but its not working...
Code Block
Update (select * from test1) AS de SET id=0
????
Hello:I've just converted my Access 2K db to SQL Server 2K and the conversion wentsmoothly. I created users, roles, views and forms and gave the userspermissions to use them. I "THINK" I have done everything, but......youcannto update the form, view, or table. I get "Recordset Not Updatabale"when I modify a field in either.Assuming I set the permissions correctly on the db, table, view, and userscorrectly, is there something else I need to do to make the table and viewupdatable?My front end is Access 2K.Thanks for any advise.....Richard H

Has anyone seen this error? It comes up when my app executes a select statement via linked server (from MSSQL 2000 to 2005) the second time it runs. It's basically a timed poll of tables in the remote database. It works once but the second time it executes I get the error from the remote db, it's just a select but I guess the cursor is still open so it can't run again. After the exception the select will run again, once and it just repeats. I have researched it a little and it looks like it mostly has to do with the isolation level of the transaction. Unfortunately based on the componet being used to access the database I don't beleive I have the ability to use transact SQL to call the isolation level (s) listed.
Here's the weird part though, at another site the same scenario is running fine. Same primary and remote db versions of MSSQL as well as the application and it runs fine. I guess my question is what type of setup parameters that may be defined in MSSQL 2005 for the remote database might make it behave in this manner in one instance and not the other? TIA in advance for any thoughts/assistance.

Here is My requirement, I'm not sure if this is possible. Creating table called master like col1, col2 col3, col4 , col5 ...Where Col1, col2 are updatable - this can be done easily
Col3, col4 are columns in another table but these can be just a read only ?? Is this possible ? this is possible with View but not friendly with share point CRUD...Col 5 is a computed column of col 2 and col5 ? if above step can be done then sure this can be done I guess.

Hi,
I have built a database for a university project, but am having trouble with the SQL syntax for inserting derived data from a calculation into a table. At present my SQL is;
INSERT INTO MemberPayment (TotalCharge) VALUES ( [Total] )
SELECT ((MileageHistory.MileageUrban * Vehicle.EmissionsPerGramUrban) * 0.05) + ((MileageHistory.MileageCountry * Vehicle.EmissionsPerGramUrban) * 0.05) AS 'Total'
FROM [NeuCar].[dbo].[MileageHistory] JOIN [NeuCar].[dbo].[Vehicle]
ON MileageHistory.Registration = Vehicle.Registration
JOIN [NeuCar].[dbo].[Member] ON Vehicle.UserName = Member.UserName
WHERE Member.UserName = 'wenger1' AND (MileageHistory.[Date] >= CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - 30);
Would anybody be able to point out where I am going wrong? I would very much appreciate any advice,
Kind regards,

OBJECTIVE:THE QUERY SHOULD GIVE ME THE FIELDS I MENTIONED IN THE FIRST QUERY WITH THE CONDITIONS BELOW.
CONDITION 1: RateReview field should have yesterday's date
CONDITION 2: Email will be send to customer only once so Customer_GUID is UniqueIdentifier
CONDITION 3: Customer shouldnt' have opted to get out from receiving any email so Termination field should be NULL
ONe Customer can have many transwactions
Is there any way i write the code specifying that no email should be sent more than once evereven if customer buys 10 tickets.
Only one email sent so i need to specify that if this email has gone to particulare CUSTOMER_GUID then Ignore that record and
do not send any email. This would be done by some tool known as StrongMail.
SELECT
CAST(a.Transaction_GUID AS varchar(36)) as Transaction_GUID,
CAST(a.Customer_GUID AS varchar(36)) as Customer_GUID,
Film_id as MovieId,
First_nm as FirstName,
Last_nm as LastName,
Email_nm as EmailAddress
FROm
Table1 where RateReview_dm >= dateadd(day, datediff(day, 0, getdate()), -1) -- Greater or same as Yesterday day
and RateReview_dm < dateadd(day, datediff(day, 0, getdate()), 0) -- Less than today's date
and
and Terminate_dm is null
(I don;t know what condition to give that same customer good should not be send email again if send once)
i don't know whether i need to create a derive table or it can work without drive table

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an application that has two different database backends, one is SQL Server Compact Edition and the other is SQL Server. The reason is because the application may run at home on one of our sales agent's computers or here in the office.
I have a query that uses a derived table and works just fine in SQL Server, however when I run it in the compact edtion (having the exact same table structures) it will not run. My question is...does the Compact Edtion or the Mobile Edition allow derived tables. If not is there a way to work around this? I will happily give an example if it will help.

I have some questions on derived table. Below is my situation.
Table order, there are 40 columns and it has indexes for productID and addressID
Table product, there are 15 columns and it has index for productID
Table address, there are 20 columns and it has index for addressID
Query A
-------
select C.address, C.area, B.productname, B.category, A.qty, A.price
from order A
join product B
on A.productID = B.productID
join address C
on A.addressID = C.addressID
Query B
-------
select C.address, C.area, B.productname, B.category, A.qty, A.price
from (select qty, price, productID, addressID from order) A
join (select productID, productname, category from product) B
on A.productID = B.productID
join (select addressID, address, area from address) C
on A.addressID = C.addressID
Will I loss the indexing when using derived table?
Why query B performance is much better than query A?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am working for my client on SQL 2005 Enterprise & observed a strange behaviour. Consider a table(EMPTABLE) as below:
PK, INT
VARCHAR
EMPID
EMPNAME
1
A
2
B
3
C
4
D
5
E
6
F
7
G
8
H
9
I
10
J
Now, I wanted the 5th highest EMPID from 2 from the table. Now, we know that the SQL
SELECT TOP 6 EMPID FROM EMPTABLE WHERE EMPID >=2 should (from all other possibilities) return me the desired value as the last row of the output table. I tried to get this in a derived table & get the MAX value i.e.
SELECT MAX(EMPID) FROM
(
SELECT TOP 6 EMPID FROM EMPTABLE WHERE EMPID >=2
) der
But this returns me 10, when I would've thought 7 was the expected answer
I remodified my query as mentioned below to strangely get 7 as the result...
SELECT MAX(EMPID) FROM
(
SELECT TOP 6 EMPID FROM EMPTABLE WHERE EMPID >=2 ORDER BY EMPID ASC
) der
How did the ORDER BY hep it???
Also, if I use
SELECT MAX(EMPID) FROM
(
SELECT TOP 6 EMPID FROM EMPTABLE WHERE EMPID >2
) der
I get the same result without having to specify the ORDER BY in my derived TABLE...
I tried looking for similar threads. But nothing could explain this to me...
If anyone knows what I am not able to understand, please let me know.
Relative SQL newbie here......this is probably easy, but....Lets say I have a table (MainTable) that stores a list of input table names,a primary key (PKey), and a field called "Configured" for each one. Each ofthese input tables also contain a field called "Configured", which is set totrue or false in another process based on an OrderNumber. (So an order'sinputs are stored in several input tables, and the MainTable is a summarytable that shows which input tables have been configured for any givenOrderNumber).What I need to do is open each input table, and look for a record containinga specific OrderNumber and where Configured=true. If a record is found, Ineed to update the Configured field for that table in the MainTable, andthen move on to the next sub-table.The way I'm doing it now is with simple SQL and loops. Here is the basiccode (ASP):*****************************************OrderNumber = "562613" ' the current order that is being processed' reset all configured flagssql = "UPDATE MainTable SET Configured = 0"conn.execute sql, , &H00000080' get list of all tablenamessql = "SELECT InputTableName, PKey FROM MainTable WHERE InputTableName <>'---'"set rsTableNames = conn.execute(sql)while not rsTableNames.eof' test each input table for configured flagsql = "SELECT Configured FROM " & rsTableNames("InputTableName")& _" WHERE Configured = 1 AND OrderNumber = '" & OrderNumber &"'"set rs = conn.execute(sql)If Not rs.EOF Then' update the main tablesql = "UPDATE MainTable SET Configured = 1 WHERE PKey='" &rsTableNames("PrimaryKey") & "'"conn.execute sql, , &H00000080end ifset rs = nothingrsTableNames.movenextwend*****************************************There has to be a faster way.. I think.... maybe something that could bewritten as a stored procedure? I use a similar technique in a couple ofother places and it's a bit of a performance hit, especially as the numberof input tables grows.TIA!Calan
View 6 Replies View RelatedDear friends, can anyone please guide me on how to update table with results from derived column tool?
thanks,
I'm trying not to use a temp table, but i may have to do so..
I'm using sql2005 for this case.
i have a derived table that makes the following results:
ID Status Name
2 1 "A"
2 2 "B"
I want to get the following:
ID Name1 Name2
2 "A" "B"
but like I said before, I can't repeat the query that gets the first 2 rows, as it's pretty invovled. a temp table is the best route I see right now, but I just wanted to be sure I'm not missing something. If I've aliased it as 'results', is there a way to alias results again as something else? or maybe a trick with CTEs? I will try that! It seems promising.

In my TSQL code i use a derived table to extract the value of account 321 to compare if they are the same that the SUM of my line invoice cost multiply by quantity line : Sum(fi.ecusto*qtt)
This is my script:
SELECT ft.ndoc [Doctype],ft.fno [Docnr] , Sum(fi.ecusto*qtt) [totalcostof my Invoiceline], xctb.conta [accountancy account],
sum(Case when ft.tipodoc = 1 then Xctb.ecre else Xctb.edeb end) as [Value of Cost of invoice in accountancy],
[DIF] = Sum(fi.ecusto*qtt) - Sum(Case when ft.tipodoc = 1 then xctb.ecre else xctb.edeb end)
[Code] ....
My problem is if i have more than on line on my invoice, for example 2 lines, the value of column [Value of Cost of invoice in accountancy] are duplicated, for 3 line invoice the value are multiply by 3.
When my colleague makes any change to a query containing a derived table, the word 'WITH' followed by a lot of graphical characters appears after the alias, rendering the query unusable. We have tried this with various existing and new, simple queries, all to no avail. We are editing the queries in Visual Studio 2003, and he does not get this effect when using Visual Studio 2005. I can edit the query in 2003 on my laptop with no ill effects.

I have discovered what looks like a bug in the optimiser. I've posted it at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=288243 but I wonder if any of you with SQL 2005 RTM, 2005 SP1 or 2008 CTP could confirm when this was introduced and whether it is still an issue?

how to declare multiple derived columns in SSIS Derived Column Task in one attempt.as i have around 150 columns coming from Flat file. I had created the required Expression in Excel and now i want add those in derived column task but its allowing only 1 expression at a time.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for the best way in SSIS to do the following. I have an SQL table that for each row in the table I want to take an element from the table do a lookup in a Teredata Table, return information from the teredata source. Use that returned data to do some calculations and create a derived column from my calculations and place the data into the same SQL table that I am parsing through.
Ideas?
Hello everyone,
How can i create updatable views in sql 2005. Any article or link can be useful.
Thanks.
I have a fairly complicated data import that needs to be done, but the table structures of the two databases don't match up too neatly. I thought I'd be clever, and create a view in the target database, and import into that view -- only to find out (after reading the manual) that multi-table views are not updatable and cannot be used with BULK INSERT or bcp.
I'm not a database pro, I'm a programmer thrust into this role. Needless to say, I'm a bit of a newbie on these things!
Anyway, the view's code:
<pre>
CREATE VIEW dbo.RJ2_V_Client_Import
AS
SELECT Clients. IDENTITYCOL, Clients.CompanyName,
Clients.Address1, Clients.Address2, Clients.StateID,
Clients.City, Clients.Zip, Clients.CountryID, Clients.PhoneMain,
Clients.PhoneFax, Clients.WebAddress,
Clients.ParentCompany, Clients.DivisionDepartment,
People.NameFirst, People.NameLast,
People.AddressPrimary1, People.AddressPrimary2,
People.CityPrimary, People.StatePrimaryID,
People.ZipPrimary, People.CountryPrimaryID,
People.PhoneWork, People.PhoneWorkExtension,
Clients.EnteredDate, Clients.UserLevelID, Clients.Revenue,
Clients.NumberOfContractors, Clients.SICCode,
Clients.Industry, Clients.ReceptionistName
FROM Clients INNER JOIN
People ON Clients.BillingPersonID = People.PID
</pre>
The reason there is a "People" table is because several (SEVERAL) tables in this database contain records for people, and we felt that this was a better design because of it.
The data we're trying to import contains records for billing contacts, which are the People.* fields referenced. It's extremely important that we get this data in the system.
Since BULK INSERT is out, are there any workarounds? There's got to be some kind of non-manual solution, since I know other people have to do imports that start as one table and end up in two ...
For this particular set, I could do it manually -- only two records are affected. BUT, for future sets, I can't do it manually -- literally thousands of records will be affected, and I just don't have the time (or inclination) to do the entry ... Plus, think of the potential error rate!
Thanks in advance

I am trying to update the current row of a cursor that I have declared from Query Analyzer and I keep getting an error message saying the cursor is Read only. This doesn't make sense because BOL says that cursor's are updatable by default. Anyone had this problem?
Ex: This is the statement I am using to update the current row in the cursor:
UPDATE TableName SET Field1 = 'D'
WHERE CURRENT OF CursorName
jg
I have created a view ('Data_test') based on Table1 and Table2 joined in the following manner:
Table1.PrimaryKey <-----> Table2.ForeignKey /* same as Primary Key */
When trying to insert data into the tables through the view, I get the following error:
Server: Msg 4405, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
View 'Data_test' is not updatable because the FROM clause names multiple tables.
Any ideas of how to make the view updatable?
I am trying to write updatable cursors in a stored procedure? Can I getany help to write updatable cursors?Any help would be appreciated very much.Thanks for your help in advance.Rajah V.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
