I have two different views which I've linked together based on 3 different columns. Currently they're linked w/ an INNER JOIN.
What I need to do now, though, is figure out what records exist in one view and not the other. How is this done? I believe I did something like this before where I used an OUTER JOIN and then a "____ is NULL" condition in my WHERE clause, but I can't remember exactly what was going on.
Thanks!
I want to select all usernames from a table EXCEPT the "Admin" username...is this possible with an SQL statement and if so: how?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am trying to write a query that solves the following problem:
I want all records from [Table1] that are not referenced in [Table2].
Table2 has a foreign key that points back to the unique identifier of a record in Table1.
I'm not sure how to solve this type of query. I was looking into a left joins, but this is sort of the inverse of what I want to do.
Thank you for your help!
Hi There
I have checked CHECKDB syntax in BOL, i just want to be sure.
In there no way to run CHECKDB on a user database and exclude certain tables, in SS2000.
I have 2 really huge tables , over a billion rows. Nightly i want to run CHECKDB on the database but i do NOT want CHECKTABLE run on these 2 tables as it takes hours.
Or is my only option to instead of running CHECKDB, writing a script that loops through user tables excluding these and running CHECKTABLE. If this is my only option can it be done with a cursor looping through user tables and running CHECKTABLE on each one?
Thanx
Currently, I install an Anti-virus solution on MS SQL Server. It protects windows OS. In order to speed up the SQL performance, I dont want this Anti-virus to scan my SQL database. I want to know what's the exclusion list for the Anti-virus application. Thanks,

However while most of the results are recording issues to be corrected some of them are real and as so can be excluded from the report.
Is there a way I can build in an exclusion table which would include:

Hi
I have stupid users... who doesn't?! They have entered carriage returns as a whole value in some fields, that is, the field contains nothing more than a carriage return.
I really need to treat these cases as nulls and have successfully removed whole fields of nothing but spaces by using the LTRIM(RTRIM()) construct. Unfortunately, this doesn't deal with carraige returns. Even CASTing and CONVERTing to varchar and then using LTRIM(RTRIM()) doesn't work.
Does anyone know how I can elegantly get around this problem other than my best guess below:
Best guess pseudo code:
IF count of field is greater than 1 THEN probably a full sentence so ignore ELSE SUBSTRING first character and if CHAR(10, etc) then treat as NULL.
Here's some code that reconstructs the problem:
select datalength(char(13)) CarriageReturnVisible
, datalength(ltrim(rtrim(cast(char(13) as varchar)))) [This Don't Work]

I am trying to import data from 4 columns in a spreadsheet, the Columns are (Last Name - First Name - ID - Code) and this spreadsheet has around 10k records. I want to add what is in this spreadsheet to the query I have below that uses the EXCEPT operator but I am not sure the best way to go about it.
Using the example I have filtered below for the name "Denise Test", at the end of the day I want everything that is in the spreadsheet to also be excluded from the results.
So before the spreadsheet lets say the 2nd query referencing table C has the following results for Denise Test
Last_Name First_Name ID Code
Test Denise 1 5
Test Denise 2 4
After adding the spreadsheet I want it to show this:
Last_Name First_Name ID Code
Test Denise 1 5
Test Denise 2 4
Test Denise 3 3
Here is the query as it stands now without the inclusion of the spreadsheet:
SELECT
ta.last_name,
ta.first_name,
tb.ID,
tb.code
FROM
TableA ta
INNER JOIN TableB tb

I installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on my Laptop for use with IIS 7.0; Everything was working fine untill I opened the Report Server Site with WVD 2008, it asked me to Modify the web.config for debugging. After doing that the Report Server Site started showing an error page saying there was a rsInternal error. I tried fixing the Web.config by hand but it dident work, so I tried completly reinstalling the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. It reinstalled perfectly excluding the Report Server. When it came time to install the Report Server; I got the error message.
The setup has encountered an unexpected error while Setting reporting service and share point exclusion path. The error is: Fatal error during installation.

I got this error message during SQL Server Express install with no error code on Server 2003 SP1. I'm installing on an older development machine and although I do have a very large log file somewhere I wanted to post before I even dug into it. I noticed in IIS under my Webs that the MSSQLExpress webs were there at first but when I clicked on them to get any info or Properties... they dissapeared. So they were almost installed but they no longer exist. Also I do not have a SQL Service Manager icon down near the clock.
I almost took a step to fix this. After reading a few posts about similar problems I thought maybe this happened because the Default Web Sites IP # was not set to (All Unassigned). I was going to try a repair install from Add/Remove Programs but the temporary setup files are already gone. I really dont want to uninstall all 5 SQL components from Add/Remove Programs and start from scratch.
As good security practice we usually remove the Default Web or as in this development servers case we changed the IP from (All Unassigned) to an IP that is only accessible from certain machines on the internal network. I obviously should have read more pre setup guides. Anyway how can I fix this without reinstalling everything?
I'm banging my head against the wall. It's probably pretty simple so here goes...
I have a form that supposed to add records to a table on the database. I'm pretty sure I have the dataAdapter and Dataset set right but when I add a record, it complains that the primary key can’t be null. I’ve tried different things, including removing those fields and variables from the stored Proc, changing the Identity Properties of the Table, changing the AutoIncrement settings on the Dataset for that field, but all give me different errors. Nothing actually makes it work. This database has many records in it and the Primary key is a decimal field that starts at 5, then next was 10, then 28, then it started getting consecutive after 110. (111, 112, 113, etc.) (I'm porting over an old database to a new web site, so I'm somewhat contrained by the database.)
I guess my question is for adding records in to a database that has a primary unique key constraint. Certainly this is a pretty common thing. Obviously I do not want users to enter that in themselves, I thought it should simply autocreate/autonumber. So what is the best procedure and gotcha’s I need to watch out for?
if i have the following code, how do i know if the transaction was actually successful, so basically where in this code can i write TRANSACTION SUCCESFUL?
try
{
//Open up the connection
conn.Open();
//Setup the Transaction
trans = conn.BeginTransaction();
//First query in transaction
pre_query = "Delete from Menu where spec_name="
+ "'"
+ spec_name_array[i].Text.ToString()
+ "'" ;
//Second query in transaction
query = "INSERT into Menu VALUES ('"
+ Calendar1.SelectedDate
+"','"
+ spec_name_array[i].Text.ToString()
+"','"
+ spec_desc_array[i].Text.ToString()
+"','"
+spec_price_array[i].Text.ToString()
+"',1)";
SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(pre_query,conn);
//Setup the command to handle transaction
comm.Transaction = trans;
//Execute first query
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
//Add in second query
comm.CommandText = query;
//Execute second query
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
trans.Commit();
}
catch(SqlException ex)
{
com_label.Text = "Submission Not complete, did you forget the date or something else?";
//Undo all queries
trans.Rollback();
}
finally
{
conn.Close();
}
This may not be the right place for this post...but my head is hurting and I can't think right now.
I have a SQL table of users. Each record has a required 'Birthdate' field. I'd like to order this by the days left till the give birthday, keeping in mind that the year may be 1980 or their birthday might have been 2 weeks ago.
Can someone cure my headache?
I have written 2 custom connection mgr€™s.
One connects the data from an oracle source
One connects so I can put the data on a sql server.
These both work well and it makes it a lot easier across development, test, production.
But now I would like a good way to do this
I have 10 tables to copy from oracle. The only difference is just the name of the table.
static string[] g_tables =
{
"table_name_1",
"table_name_2",
"table_name_3",
€¦
};
foreach (string str_table in g_tables)
{
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand OracleCommand = new Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand
(
"select * from " + str_table,
OracleConnection
);
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleDataReader OracleDataReader =
OracleCommand.ExecuteReader();
// dump out to raw file destination
}
I understand there are some pieces left out but that is the basic idea. It seems like I€™m going to have write custom pieces for each step.
It does not seem like there is any advantage to using SSIS. Should I give up now and stick to writing windows services for stuff like this?
I could just write a specific piece for each table but the only difference is the table name.
I need to determine the top 20 most frequent occurences of a value in a specific field using SQL.
My table structure...
enddt datetime(8)
status varchar(20)
when enddt time equal to server time.
I want to change status field to expired.
What is the easy way to do this?.
enddt status
8/22/2005 7:00:00 PM expired
9/22/2005 8:30:00 PM expired
10/30/2005 7:30:00 PM live
11/22/2005 9:30:00 PM live
I completely forgot how to do this. I want one of my groups in the matrix to take its week number (1-7) as Monday-Sunday.
so it would kind of be like this:
=IIF(Fields!DayOfWeek.Value=2,"Mon",
ELSE(Fields!DayOfWeek.Value=3,"Tues",
Else(Fields!DayOfWeek.Value=4,"Wed",
etc etc
Am i doing this right, or am i off??
If I have a 64 bit version of SQL 2005 installed, will "select @@version" indicate it is a 64 bit version? If not, how do I determine such? Thanks in advance.

I have a column in my report that i want to show percentage change from the previous year to this year. So i enter all kinds of different type of formats for the formula, and keep getting the wrong answers or error messeges. Here's what i have tried recently:
=SUM((Fields!LYTD_Amount.Value - Fields!YTD_Amount.Value) (Fields!YTD_Amount.Value*100))
Its pretty much Last year to date Minues Year to Date , Divided by Year to Date, Multiplied by 100.
any suggestions? Everytime i try to put an aggregate in the box, its always tricky.

I have a simple SQL table. The data looks like this:
products_ID----category----product_local
1----CORE----0
2----BASE----0
3----BRANCH----1
4----LEAF----3
I need to create a SQL statement that produces all category items where that ROW's products_ID is not found in ANY product_local in the table. So in the table above only the category BASE and LEAF would be printed because their products_ID are not found in any product_local in the table.
TIA as I am completely stuck!
OK, I have two cols of data:

I would appreciate any help. This is driving me nuts. Seems like it would be easy.
