Determine Current Table Of Trigger
May 6, 2008
Good Morning
Is There anyway to determine the table you are referencing in a trigger's inserted / deleted tables?
i.e would this be possible
print @Table_Name + " was Updated"
Where @Table_Name is the table on which the trigger is created
(bad example I know but you get the idea)
Any input will be appreciated.

Hi all,
I'm new to this whole trigger 'thing', so forgive me if this question has been asked and answered a few times already.
I'm in the process of writing a trigger that will send an e-mail to an application admin when any table within a given database is altered (IE, a column is added or deleted). I can get the e-mail to fire off when that happens without any issue, but I'd like to be able to let the admin know which table was tweaked and what new column was added.
Is this a relatively easy thing to do and I'm just not finding the right built-in variable name, or does something more need to be done?
Thanks,
-Mike

When executing a stored procedure that is defined in another database, as:
USE db1;
EXEC db2.dbo.sproc;
Is there a way in the stored procedure "sproc" to determine that the caller made the call from db1?

I need to determine the following about the current authenticated Windows domain user who is trying to access a SQL Server via a trusted connection.
1 Has the current user been granted login access to the trusted SQL Server?
2 Has the current user been granted access to a specific database?
3 Is the current user a member of a specific database role such as (DB_ROLE_ADMINISTRATORS)?
Thanks,

I am writing a trigger to audit changes to certain columns. In the trigger I
would like to record to the "Audit" table as much information about the
current execution context as possible (current user, login, nt user,
inputbuffer, etc.). I couldn`t find the way to find out what is the
currently executed* stored procedure. @@PROCID returns object id for the
trigger itself. Any help would be highly appreciated as this is an urgent
production environment issue.
regards,

I have the following working correctly as a trigger, however, I want to change one of the values (2016) to calculate the current year's value.. so in 2017, it would put 2017.
CREATE TRIGGER TRG_NEW_EQUIPMENT

I have a table full of items that have a "date_updated" field. I'd like this field to be set to GETDATE() whenever a record is updated. I've got this trigger:
CREATE trigger tr_cp_shiptos_u on dbo.cp_shiptos for update as
update cp_shiptos set date_updated = GETDATE()
Problem is, of course, there's no WHERE clause..yet. I don't know how to refer to the record that was updated.... for example:
CREATE trigger tr_cp_shiptos_u on dbo.cp_shiptos for update as
update cp_shiptos set date_updated = GETDATE()
where shipto_id = @THIS_ID
I imagine there's some kind of builtin variable or something like that. How is this done?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have a trigger set on TABLE1 so that any update to this column should set off trigger to write to the AUDIT log table, it works fine otherwise but not the very first time when table1 has null in the column. if i comment out
and i.req_fname <> d.req_fname from the where clause then it works fine the first time too. Seems like null value of the column is messing things up
Any thoughts?
Here is my t-sql
Insert into dbo.AUDIT (audit_req, audit_new_value, audit_field, audit_user)
select i.req_guid, i.req_fname, 'req_fname', IsNull(i.req_last_update_user,@default_user) as username from inserted i, deleted d
where i.req_guid = d.req_guid
and i.req_fname <> d.req_fname
Thanks,
leo

I am using SQL Server 2005 and trying to create a linked server on Oracle 10. I used the commands below:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'test1',
@srvproduct = 'Oracle',
@provider = 'MSDAORA',
@datasrc = 'testsource'
exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname = 'test1',
@useself = 'false',
@rmtuser='sp',
@rmtpassword='sp'
When I execute
select * from test1...COUNTRY
I get the error. "The OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "...." does not contain the table "COUNTRY". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table."
The 'sp' user I am connecting is the owner of the table. What could be the problem ?
Thanks a lot.

Does anybody know of a way to determine the last date/time a table has been accessed (query/update)? I've done enough research to know that this isn't easy. However, perhaps somebody has figured out a way through some of the stats that SQL Server keeps to determine the last access of a table. I have recently been put on a team that had no DBA and has a number of databases out there. They would like to determine which databases are inactive and get rid of them. I am a developer and haven't had much SQL Server Administration experience. Any info will help greatly! Thanks!

I have a requirement based on 2 parts to determine a row of data in a table through SSIS :
a. Work out the LEG_SEQ_NBR of the VESSEL, VOYAGE and LEG already stored in table1.
To do this join table1 and join table2 through BL_ID column.
b. Work out the 2ndVESSEL, 2ndVOYAGE and 2ndLEG.
Once we have identified the LEG_SEQ_NBR of the VESSEL,VOYAGE, LEG already stored in table1 we need to add '1' to this value and then find that LEQ_SEQ_NBR in table2.
The DDL of table1 and table2 along with the test data are as below:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table1](
[BL_ID] [decimal](10, 0) NOT NULL,
[VESSEL] [nvarchar](10) NULL,
[VOYAGE] [nvarchar](12) NULL,
[LEG] [nchar](3) NULL,
[Code] ....
For Example:
BLNO = 21 and BL_ID = 1
Current Vessel/Voyage/Leg in table1 = CEUR 032E E
LEG_SEQ_NBR of this Vessel/Voyage/Leg in table1 = '1'
Therefore if we add '1' to this value we'd be looking for LEG_SEQ_NBR '2' as the 2ndVESSEL,2ndVOYAGE,2ndLEG.
In this case that would = MARB 794S S
How this can be worked out through an SSIS job ?

Hey,
I'm new to this whole SQL Server 2005 thing as well as database design and I've read up on various ways I can integrate business constraints into my database. I'm not sure which way applies to me, but I could use a helping hand in the right direction.
A quick explanation of the various tables I'm dealing with:
WBS - the Work Breakdown Structure, for example: A - Widget 1, AA - Widget 1 Subsystem 1, and etc.
Impacts - the Risk or Opportunity impacts for the weights of a part/assembly. (See Assemblies have Impacts below)
Allocations - the review of the product in question, say Widget 1, in terms of various weight totals, including all parts. Example - September allocation, Initial Demo allocation, etc. Mostly used for weight history and trending
Parts - There are hundreds of Parts which will eventually lead to thousands. Each part has a WBS element. [Seems redundant, but parts are managed in-house, and WBS elements are cross-company and issued by the Government]
Parts have Allocations - For weight history and trending (see Allocations). Example, Nut 17 can have a September 1st allocation, a September 5th allocation, etc.
Assemblies - Parts are assemblies by themselves and can belong to multiple assemblies. Now, there can be multiple parts on a product, say, an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), and so those parts can belong to a higher "assembly" [For example, there can be 3 Nut 17's (lower assembly) on Widget 1 Subsystem 2 (higher assembly) and 4 more on Widget 1 Subsystem 5, etc.]. What I'm concerned about is ensuring that the weight roll-ups are accurate for all of the assemblies.
Assemblies have Impacts - There is a risk and opportunity impact setup modeled into this design to allow for a risk or opportunity to be marked on a per-assembly level. That's all this table represents.
A part is allocated a weight and then assigned to an assembly. The Assemblies table holds this hierarchical information - the lower assembly and the higher one, both of which are Parts entries in the [Parts have Allocations] table.
Therefore, to ensure proper weight roll ups in the [Parts have Allocations] table on a per part-basis, I would like to check for any inserts, updates, deletes on both the [Parts have Allocations] table as well as the [Assemblies] table and then re-calculate the weight roll up for every assembly. Now, I'm not sure if this is a huge performance hog, but I do need to keep all the information as up-to-date and as accurate as possible. As such, I'm not sure which method is even correct, although it seems an AFTER DML trigger is in order (from what I've gathered thus far). Keep in mind, this trigger needs to go through and check every WBS or Part and then go through and check all of it's associated assemblies and then ensure the weights are correct by re-summing the weights listed.
If you need the design or create script (table layout), please let me know.
Thanks.

This Audit Trigger is Generic (i.e. non-"Table Specific") attach it to any tabel and it should work. Be sure and create the 'Audit' table first though.

Hi! I am new to SQL Server... looking for some veteran assistance.
"Data Integrity Report"
I need a Stored Procedure that takes a table name as a parameter and returns a cursor suitable as a data source for a pre-built Report Services report (I guess Report Services would call the SP?).
The cursor/report needs to have the following columns:
Ordinal_Position (I.E. Column number)
Column_Name
Number Of Blank Rows (how many missing values for this column in this table)
Difference (Between total rowcount and population of this column)
Data_Type
Column_Length (either Character_Maximum_Length or the numeric widths rolled up with COALESCE?)
Sample Data (The contents of the "first" row in the table, based on a TOP(1) and ORDER BY xxx)
The report should look like this (for a table with 100 rows):
Col Num Col Name # Blanks Difference Data Type Col Length Sample Data
1 Name 12 88 varchar 30 Sally Smith
2 Address 34 66 varchar 45 123 Main St Apt 45
3 Acct_ID 0 100 varchar 4 AB12345
Using the "Information_Schema.Columns" I can get everything I need except for #3 (blanks count) and #7 (Sample data).
Is it possible to do this as 1 query, with a CTE or APPLY or something, or do I need to do a table variable based on the Information_Schema and then use dynamic SQL and row-by-row COUNT(*) for each column? And the same for the Sample Data.
Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance!

I have 2 identical tables one contains current settings, the other contains all historical settings.I could create a union view to display the current values from table A and all historical values from table B, butthat would also require a Variable to hold the tblid for both select statements.
Q. Can this be done with one joined or conditional select statement?
DECLARE @tblid int = 501
SELECT 1,2,3,4,'CurrentSetting'
FROM TableA ta
WHERE tblid = @tblid
UNION
SELECT 1,2,3,4,'PreviosSetting'

Hi,I was wondering if you guys have any nth script to reads from tableand outputs into a temp table subset of records. There was a nth toolI used to use it was GROUP1 which was written in C and it used to bevery fast on nth -in a flat file. In this program we used to pass fewparamaeters. For example if I want 30,000 records from the file of500,000. The function seams to work something like this. you dividethe 30,000 records of 500,000 which will result with .090909090909.Now we would pass only the first 7 digit (0909090) as parameter thatwould nth the file down to 30,000 records. This function allwaysworked whichever number you use as long as the read file is largerthan output fileI like to use the similar concept in Sql Server and I was wondering ifanyone has any script to do this or how to go about this?Thank you. I appreciate your feedbackagron
