guys,I have a project need to move more than 100,000 records from onedatabase table to another database table every week. Currently, usersinput date range from web UI, my store procedure will take those dateranges to INSERT records to a table in another database, then deletethe records, but it will take really long time to finish this action(up to 1 or 2 hours).My question is if there is some other way I should do to speed up theaction, I am thinking about use bcp to copy those records to datafileand then use bcp to insert it into SQL Server table. Is this the rightway to do it or should I consider other solution (then, what is thesolution.)Thanks a lot!
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am making a form that takes input for 1 to 5 students using VWD. With the help of previous posts I have been able to make the database insert query work properly. In my form I have a radio list that has the user select if they are entering information for 1, 2, 3,4, or 5 children. Depending on how many children are selected on the radio list, I am displaying the proper number of textboxes and validating the data using the handy RequiredFieldValidator. Now I am at the point where I want to perform the instert to the database depending on the selected number of children in the family. What is the general rule for best practices. Please keep in mind that it is my understanding that ALL fileds in a SQL insert statment must have data. Should I ...1) create alternative SQL statements depending on the textboxes displayed OR2) is it more common to insert a standard string or integer, depending on the datatype, into the unused textboxes to populate the unused fields? Sincerely,Mike

What is the best way of doing this?
I was thinking about using a simple INSERT INTO ... SELECT statement. Is there a faster way to do it with SSIS?
Thanks
I'm trying to find out if this is possible.. i know that you can do an execute script command and have it export the results to a script file or clipboard.. then in a new database, run that in the query window and it will recreate the table schema.. but is there a way to do the entire table, contents and all via a script in a similar fashion?
This would be with SQL 2005 standard edition...
Thanks for any input.
I have 2 tables in my database.
one is Race table and 2nd one is Age Range.
I want to write a query where I can see all races and age range as column.
TblRace
ID, RaceName
TblAgeRange
ID,AgeRange.
There is no connection between this two table. I need to display result like below.
Race 17-20 21-30 31-40
A
B
I
W
How do i get this kind of empty data set so that I can fill it out in front end or any better solution. The age range will be displayed as many row as they have. It's not static. Above is just an example.
hello everyone,
am not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes.
We have a couple of clients we support running MS SQL, and as a rule, all db access is by SP and select statements.
However, we noticed earlier today, that a newly created account was empty. All columns except the users columns had been deleted.
1. Is there a way of checking which user account deleted the columns ?
2. Or finding out what went wrong ?
This has never happened before

I am studying indexes and keys. I have a table that has a fixed width of data to be loaded in the first column which is parsed in a view based on data types within the fixed width specifications.
Example column A:
(name phone house cost of house,zipcodecountystatecountry)
-a view will later split this large varchar string basedÂ
column b: is the source filename of the data load (varchar 256)
....
a. would there be a benefit of adding a clustered or nonclustered index (if so which/point in direction on why)
b. is there benefit of making one of these two columns a primary key (millions of records) or for adding a 3rd new column as a pk?
c. view: this parses the data in column a so it ends up looking more like "name phone house cost of house zipcode county state country" each having their own column.
-any pros/cons of adding indexes (if so which) to the view instead of the tables or both for once the data is parsed?
Hello Experts,
Can anyone tell me, how can I make SQL server database empty.I mean i need to keep only restore the table structur, no table data.
This is kind of a elementary question, but how do you export an empty copy of a SQL 2005 database to a backup file? Basically I need a backup without any of the data. Thanks!

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a dataset that sometimes is empty. I have it as a detail row in a table on the report, but since the dataset is null the row does not appear. What I would like to do is have it say "No results" if there are no results, otherwise have it show the results.
I tried to add a textbox and reference the textbox on the table, but it was a no go.
Here is what I had in my textbox

I have an interesting problem. I am unable to see any database triggers in the Database Triggers folder under programmability in SQL 2005. I have been able to create and alter triggers in the database that function exactly as their supposed to, yet they never show up as visible in the Triggers folder. I would love for one of the luminaries on this forum to share some wisdom with me and let me know what setting is the culprit. It is driving me batty.
Thank you all in advance.
Hi all,
I have a database which gets its daily feed from a ftp file. Now is there any way i can figure out the empty tables in the databese which doesnot get any data on the feed.
Thanks in advance,
I have a block of code that does a Fill() with a DataAdapter, which seems to throw an exception if no values are returned. Then, when I try to bind the DataSet that gets filled, an error occurs, it doesn't even try to bind the column headers or anything.
This process seems to work fine when some rows are found, but it is not always guaranteed that the row count will always be > 0. The nice thing about using the Fill() function, is that it creates all my column headers automatically, so I was just wondering if there's a way to do a Fill() then a subsequent DataBind() to a DataGrid which would automatically format the columns even when no rows are found?
Here's a bit of the source.. if the last line finds no rows, it throws an exception ( I assume this is normal):
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Prods";
cm.CommandText = strSQL;
da = new SqlDataAdapter( cm );
da.Fill(shelf);
Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this problem?

I would like to empty out my 2k8 database (remove all the data in the tables only) And reloaded it with the data from production (2k5). I know I would have to dis-enable any constraints, triggers and remove all indexes before I can run a Truncate/Delete on all tables correct And then import the data via Wizard or script And lastly enable all the constraints & triggers, rebuild the indexes. Is this the only way to go about this? I don't want to do a backup & restore because the 2k5 doesn't have a 20% of the tables that are in 2k8. The 20% of those tables in 2k8 i'm not going to remove.

I am trying to do a lookup for a value in a codes table and if that code is not there; add it to the table, my problem is if the lookup table is blank no records to begin with it will not add any data, that means the data source is empty so there no data going thru the data pipeline. So how do I get data in the table if we start with an empty table? If I am not clear I can explain it more.
Thank

But when there is no returns in the month, the column returns isn't displayed. So I get this:
SALES

Client2 40
How can I show this column even with empty data?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I need to find all empty files in the database (SQL Server 2008R2 SP2) The files become empty after the archival of a partitioned tables.
I was trying this:
select f.name, *
from sysfiles f (nolock)
left join sys.filegroups fg (nolock)
on f.name = fg.name
left join sys.indexes i (nolock)
on i.data_space_id = fg.data_space_id
left join sys.all_objects o (nolock)
ON i.[object_id] = o.[object_id]
where i.name is NULL and o.name is NULL
Did not work.
My file names are the same as the filgroup names containing the file, this is why I was joining by name.
Hello everyone,
Greetings! I just found this group after wasting hours trying to make
SSRS work with databases that are already created (that is, the DBA
created two empty databases for me, X and XTempDB).
I keep getting "this connection string is invalid can't use this to
connect to SQL Server" in the Database Setup tab.
The problem is that to create its own database, SSRS needs dbcreator
and securityadmin roles (please correct me if I'm wrong here). And I'm
having a helluva problem trying to convince the DBA to give me
temporary dbcreator and securityadmin roles!
Is there any document or
something that I can use to convince him that SSRS will not do
anything like recreating the login (because he said that the login has
already existed and has its role set up in many other databases)?
Any help, pointers, suggestions, etc. is very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ray

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi Everyone,
I am using a DTS package where one of the inputs is an Excel Sheet. Actually this sheet is updated manually whenever required i.e once a week or sometimes once a month, but the DTS package runs everyday.
Whenever new rows are added or deleted manually in the excel sheet, empty rows are showed in the sheet after the last row of data. This hinders the DTS package, because the destination table to which the data in the Excel sheet is sent has Primary keys in it.
Can anyone suggest me how to avoid getting the empty spaces in the excel sheet.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I have a problem where I need to include data from a table where one of the joined columns can contain empty strings. The emptry string column and its related columns need to be included in the results of the query.
The Join looks like this:
SalesData.dbo.tbl_CYProcessedSales ps
INNER JOIN SalesData.dbo.vw_Product_CYProcessedSalesXref xr
ON ps.Prod = xr.Prod
AND ps.Acct = xr.AcctCode
INNER JOIN TxnRptg.dbo.vw_NetNewRevenueUnion nn
ON xr.BillingType = nn.BillingType
AND xr.ProdGroup = nn.Product
AND xr.AcctCode = nn.AcctCode
The problem occurs on the xr.BillingType = nn.BillingType portion of the join. the nn.BillingType can contain empty strings. I've tried a LEFT join to vw_NetNewRevenueUnion, but this has not worked.
In vw_NetNewRevenueUnion, BillingType becomes an empty string within a CASE statement if BillingType is NULL. I've thought about using something like 'All' in the ELSE condition, and doing the same in the vw_Product_CYProcessedSales view just so I don't have to deal with an empty string.
If I were not to do that, is there some way I can handle the empty string issue within the join so that empty string records will be included in the query results?
Thank you for your help!

On my office PC I have a strange problem with Data Flow Tasks. When I check-in a package into Source Control (Team Foundation) I usually have some empty Data Flow Tasks in the packages...even if I haven't changed that Flow Task.
This is really frustrating cause when running the package all goes well, but after a whil you notice that some tables are empty.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
How can I pass into the database (@User_fax = null) if the fax form field is empty, from a command type Stored Procedure? For example:
Dim CmdUpdate As New SqlCommand("Form2_NewUser", strConnection)
CmdUpdate.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
CmdUpdate.Parameters.Add("@User_fax", SqlDbType.char, 9)
CmdUpdate.Parameters("@User_fax").Value = fax.Text()
...
strConnection.open()
CmdUpdate.ExecuteNonQuery
strConnection.close()
And, the stored procedure inside Sql server:
USE market1
GO
ALTER PROC Form2_NewUser
@User_id bigint, @User_fax char(9),...
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
UPDATE Users
SET User_fax = @User_fax, ...
WHERE User_id = @User_id
SET NOCOUNT OFF
GO

Hello All,
When creating my database I have modeled some of the tables after the Adventureworks sample database.
There are some fields or entire tables in Adventureworks that I do not see an imediate use for, however; I would hate to ommit them to find out later they would have been benificial. (.eg territory table).
In general terms what would the impact be on size and performance of a database which contains tables or fields that do not contain data.
Thanks for your help!
I've built a simple VS2005 ASP.Net web app that uses Crystal Reports for generating assorted reports. More specifically, when a report is called it executes the correct SQL Server Stored Procedure and returns a Data Table populated with with appropriate data. In my testing, everything seemed to be working fine.But I just did a test where I pressed the "Submit" button on two different client browsers at almost the same time. Without fail, one browser returns the report as it should but the other one returns an empty report; all of the Crystal Reports template info is there but the report is just empty of data. Considering that each browser is running in its own session, I'm confused about why this is happening.One thing: I did login as the same user in both cases. Might this be causing the problem?Robert W.Vancouver, BC
