Find And Replace

Sep 13, 2006

To ensure I don't leave orphans floating around in tables when records get deleted (values from one record might link to values in another) how do I find and possibly replace values in tables?For example, if I have a unit of measure table and want to delete the value "inches", how do I look in other tables to find this value and give the user the option to cancel or clear it out. If I don't it will cause controls bound to that value like the dropdownlist to throw an error.

Find And Replace.

Apr 30, 2004

Does anybody know how to search through all stored procedures (in SQL Server 2000) and find and replace text without having to open each one individually in Query Analyzer and doing so one at a time?

That would be so time consuming. I want to be able to change my table names, but I have so many stored procedures allready using the old names. To go and find each name and replacing them is a task I don't want to even try and do.

Thank you to whomever can help.

Find And Replace......EVERYTHING?!

Jan 4, 2007

Hi I run a find and replace in my script to replace some key words.

Little did I know that in SQL Server 2005 that it actually finds and replaces ALL query windows open for that database.

Any ideas on how I can turn this setting off? so that it only finds/replaces within the query window that I am using.

Thanks in Advance!

Wondering if anyone may have any advice on how to do this?

I need to do Find/Replace of text in a varchar field so that it looks for text I want then it replaces that text with the new text and updates the field with that specific change, leaving everything else intact.

And I need to do this for every row in a table.

Thanks in advance!!

Find/Replace ColumnNames In All SPs/Views

Feb 25, 2001

I would like to change a column name, but before doing so would like to search all SPs and Views for occurrences of that name. I would be happy with just a list of them, but even cooler would be the ability to change all the occurrences to the new name.

Thanks!

Pattern Matching Or Find And Replace In SQL Query

Oct 29, 2007

I have a table called MessageBoard.  It has a column called Messages.
A user can type text including any html tags through a text area ans when he saves it by clicking a button, the content typed by the user is saved in the MessageBoard Table (in the Messages) column.  So once saved, the html tags are kept intact.  If I have to find and replace certain html tags, what kind of SQL Query I have to write?
For example I want to find all the <pre> </pre> tags and replace it with <p> </p> tags.  How do I do this?

Global Stored Proc Find And Replace

Jan 29, 2004

Hello all,
Being a relative newbie to large scale MSSQL development, I'd like to try and find out if there is some sort of utility, command or stored proc that I can use to globally change all text within my database's stored procedures.

For example... I would like to change a table name from dbo.xtable... to dbo.ytable... Is this possible?

Actually, I'd be happy with some way to search through all my stored procs to find a specific string (i.e. xtable in the example above).

Any help provided will be greatly appreciated!

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Enhanced Find And Replace Function

Apr 17, 2014

I'm looking for a way to pull off a complex find+replace within some code, as follows:

@step_name = N'SAME - OCF Collins (Tabard)', @command = N'DTSRun /~Z0x5F4F7B0688825E7544AC46CFD664F98AC ', @database_name = N'

We have over 200 variants of the above, but following the same syntax (@step_name, Dbname, @Command etc...

Rules:

1) Note the unique identifier "~Z0x5F4F7B0688825E7544AC46CFD664F98AC". I would like it replaced for whatever is between "@step_name = N'" , and @command = N'DTSRun ; (this will form a filename).

2) Note the 'DTSRun /' string. I'd like that replaced with Dtexec /F "D:MyFileLocationFolderHere" (this folder remains constant).

Transact SQL :: Find / Replace Numbers In Server

Aug 12, 2015

I have a separate list of calendar years with radiocarbon year equivalents in SQL server but no conversion equation. Most but not all of the data I have is in radiocarbon years. I thought at first I could just link the tables but I don't want the data that is already in calendar years to be linked to this conversion table. Is there any way I can either link the two tables with criteria for which data is linked (Only ages that are in radiocarbon years). Or possibly a way to query all ages that are in radiocarbon years and do something similar to a find and replace with a large list of numbers to change?

SQL Server 2012 :: Find A Specific String And Replace It With Another Inside Of VARCHAR Field

Aug 14, 2015

I'm trying to find a specific string (a name) and replace it with another inside of a VARCHAR(7000) field. Unfortunately, there are names like Ted and Ken that I'm trying to replace. I would like to leave words like Broken, admitted, etc... intact.

UPDATEtbl
SETBody = LEFT(REPLACE(tbl.Body, pm.OldFirstName, p.FirstName), 7000)
FROM Table tbl
JOIN Person p ON p.PersonID = tbl.PersonID
JOIN PersonMap pm ON pm.PersonID = p.PersonID AND LEN(pm.OldFirstName) > 2
WHEREtbl.Body LIKE '%[^a-z]'+pm.OldFirstName+'[., ]%

'The problem I'm running into is that the '[, ]%' in the LIKE excludes any record that ends with the FirstName because it is requiring either a space, comma or period after the name. Is there some way to add an empty string to the list of acceptable characters as that would cover any scenario in the data? I would prefer not to add all characters except space, comma and period, but I guess I could do that.

How To Select Value From Table B To Replace Value In Table A

May 29, 2001

I have an automatic data collection system. The large majority of the time, all data is electronically gathered. On occasion, the need arises to substitute a manually entered value into the data when a valuable piece of information cannot be electronically secured. When a piece of data is open to substitution, it arrives with a value of -9999 (a value not naturally occuring) in Table A. I want to be able to use a trigger on table A to get its substitution value from a corresponding column (Same name) in Table B. Tables A & B will have an identical schema. A is raw data, B is the manually updated table. Any value in the raw table with the content of -9999 gets its replacement from Table B.


I'm open to any ideas!!

Alter Or Replace Table Daily

Jun 27, 2001

Greetings,

I'm a web developer who is new to T-SQL scripting.

I need to write a script that will update a table from a text file daily; the columns will be identical but their content will vary. I immediately thought that dropping the existing table and creating a new one from the file as a scheduled job was the answer.

My boss thinks that this approach is risky and suggests comparing the new and old data and altering the existing table instead. My gut says that this is an inefficient and unecessary solution.

Any advice?; if so, any sample scripts you can point to?

Thanks!
