Transact SQL :: NVARCHAR SortOrder Breaks For More Than 9 Items?
Jul 22, 2015I have below sample data table,
DECLARE @TBL TABLE (ItemId INT IDENTITY(1,1), ItemName NVARCHAR(20), ItemDate DATE, ParentItemName NVARCHAR(20), ItemOrder INT, ReportId INT)
INSERT INTO @TBL (ItemName, ItemDate, ParentItemName, ItemOrder, ReportId)
VALUES ('Plan', '2015-06-01', NULL, 1, 20),('Design', '2015-06-01', NULL, 2, 20),('Test', '2015-06-20', NULL, 3, 20),('Complete', '2015-06-30', NULL, 4, 20),
('Design child A', '2015-06-02', 'Design', 1, 20), ('Design child B', '2015-06-01', 'Design', 2, 20),
[Code] ....
Here I want,
1. to display all parent with ORDER BY ItemOrder (no need to sort by ItemDate)
2. display all child row right after their parent (ORDER BY ItemOrder if ItemDate are same, else ORDER BY ItemDate)
3. display all grand child row right after their parent (ORDER BY ItemOrder if ItemDate are same, else ORDER BY ItemDate)
Below Query works perfect, when count of child or grand child count less than 10, as SortOrder column here is
NVARCHAR,
;With cte As
(Select t.ItemId, t.ItemName, t.ItemDate, t.ParentItemName, t.ItemOrder, t.ReportId,
Cast(t.ItemOrder As nvarchar(max)) As SortOrder
From @TBL t
Where t.ParentItemName Is Null
[Code] ....
The output rows with ItemOrder's 10, 11, 12 (test grand child 10, test grand child 11, test grand child 12) should display after ItemOrder = 9 (test grand child 9). I know this is happening due to varchar sort order?

where sortorder < ( select sortorder from daTable where id = 937) )

T-SQL XML Experience??? (repost)
Nov 14, 2007
Hi all,
I have posted a thread on the XML forum but its not getting much traction there so I'm posting a link to it from here hoping that more people will pick it up. Hope that's OK.
I have a problem with a T-SQL query involving XML that is taking FAR too long to run.

SQL 2K5 Replication With DB Mirroring - Any Experience?

Please Share Your Valuable Experience
Nov 21, 2007I have SQL Server 2000 database involving voluminous data spread across different locations in a state. The database involves lot of transactions. The database involves tables storing photo images and thumb impressions along with the textual data and other needed information in a single table. I have a application accessing and updating about 5 tables and reading most of the master tables. I need a strategy to design the database such that performance improves. Once the photo and thumb are inserted for a particular party it is not required for retrieval immediately at any circumstance. In this scenario how should I design the database and keep data volume in check. Can I archive photo and thumb impressions in CDs. Will it be reliable and feasible. Please clarify on this issue. Please share your valuable experience. Only insertions involved in the partyinfo table having Photo and Thumb impressions. Later the table is only used to fetch the data of party other than Photo and thumb.

Horrible Experience With Xp_cmdshell - Your Comments Please
May 21, 2008I had a nerve-wracking experience with xp_cmdshell today.
In SSMS, I ran a command to "cd" to a directory, then "rename" some files in that directory. I made the ignorant mistake of running the commands separately - NEVER NEVER DO THIS.
What happened was, by the time I ran the "rename" command it defaulted to the "system32" directory and started renaming files there instead... talk about !!$#*@(!-up!
Has any ever done this, or heard about this horrible experience before? I am trying to document cases of this, so that I don't look like the complete idiot that I am.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHas Anyone Had Any Experience With This Feature? Microsoft Provide A Sample C++ Prog
Apr 29, 2004I am using SQL 2000 running a couple of large (up to 70GB) databases. I am currently backing up to disk, which is working fine.
I now want to backup the databases using the Snapshot feature of my storage array. To do this however, I first need to put my databases (3 of them) into 'backup mode', so as to stop transactions being written to the database, and provide a consistent database to backup.
Has anyone had any experience with this feature? Microsoft provide a sample C++ program called snaphot.cpp that puts a single database into 'backup mode'. I am not particularly clued up on C++. Can multiple databases be put into this mode simultaneously? Is this particularly difficult to do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Changing The Sqldataroot
Dec 14, 2000A college forgot to change the data root when installing a developer server. My question is can this be changed whitout reinstalling the server and restoring the developer databases.
I found sqldataroot under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerSetu pSQLDataRoot]
If I stop the sql server and change this value and move the *.mdb and *.ldf files. Would I risk currupting the databases and do I need to change something else? For example would changeing this value change the default path for backupdevices?
Changing Passwords
Dec 5, 2000I have a problem where our developers would like to change the passwords of the SQL Logins without knowing the users old password.
The only way they can use the below syntax is that they must be a member of the SYSAdmin Server Role.
sp_password NULL, 'newpassword',Max
I need a way to allow them to change the passwords without making a user a member of the SYSAdmin Server Role.
Any thoughts would be greatly apprecitated. Thanks in advance.

Changing The Sa Password
Aug 6, 1998I`m running SQL 6.5 with standard security. We`re running NT 4.0. I am a member of the NT Admin group - which, of course, has sa privileges in SQL Server. I changed the sa password (via Enterpise Manager on my client machine); and it worked. I tested the password change by connecting to ISQL/w - both on my client machine and at the server machine.
However, when I attempted to connect to the server via Enterprise Manager (SEM) - on my client machine - my login attempt failed. But at the server machine, I connected just fine.
Somehow, even though we`re using standard security, I`m getting locked out of SEM because of the new password. Changing the sa password back to what it had been resolved the problem; but the old password was only meant to be temporary.
Any suggestions or explanations?
Changing SA Passwword
Dec 15, 1998Hi,
During SQL installation I left the SA password blank. Now when I try to change it, the event log fills up with the following errors:
Mesg 18456 : Login failed- User: sa.
I am using SQL database for SMS and I have a SMS service account.
The error type in event viewer is "Failure Audit".
I am stopping and starting SQL once changes are made. I am also registering server with "Use Trusted Connection". I have also tried with "Use Standard Security" and the SA account.
Can anyone tell me how to change my SA password without affecting my SMS service account?
Thanks,
Terry
Changing Column Name
Nov 9, 2004Hi all,
I have a table that has integrity constraints in place and it is populated with the data. I need to rename one of the columns in the table. I am hesitant to use sp_rename procedure because when I used it before I get a warning message that says "changing any part of an object name could break scriptd and stored procedure." how big of a problem is it? Is there any other way to do it without hearting anything? Thanks.

Tracking Who Is Changing What?
Aug 9, 2006We are building an inventory management system complete with BOM. It is important to track what employee is updating what tables. Currently all such tables have a Date field that is updated when a change is made, and an EmployeeID field which records the employee making the change. I am wondering if someone knows of a better way to track this information. Any suggestions?

Changing Compatability From 65 To 80
Apr 21, 2008Finally, I may have a good enough excuse to justify changing the compatabilty level of one of the biggies I look after!
Before I go ahead with the change I just wanted to run a couple of questions passed the community.
I know this is very vague, but what sort of problems should I expect? I know there are a few syntax changes, but I don't imagine I will have a problem going up in compatability level!
What is the best method to perform this?
A very simple
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'playdb', 80
Or
ALTER DATABASE SET SINGLE_USER
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'playdb', 80
ALTER DATABASE SET MULTI_USER
How long does this process take; are we talking seconds, minutes, hours? I imagine it's seconds, but I pose this question because a colleague reckons it will take longer because of the database size. I argue that because it's a db configuration setting, it will make no difference...
Thanks a bunch,
George
