I'm trying to find the primary key on a given table in SQL Server 2000 using SQL. I'm querying the sysobjects table to find a given table, and then querying the sysindexes table. I've ALMOST found what I'm looking for. I see the indexes and columns etc. on the tables in the database, I just don't see the field that indicates that the index is the primary key.
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Alex
Hi,
I am putting my problem in an example as I Feel it would be clear.
Assume my table PEOPLE is having 4 columns with 6 rows, the SlNo being primary key.
SlNo Name LastName birthdate
1 A B x --
2 C B x |-- 1 pair (A, B, x)
3 D E y --|------------
4 A E y | |
5 A B x __| |-- 2'nd pair (D, E, y)
6 D E y ---------------
In this scenario, I need to find SlNo values having similar values in other columns. The o/p for above must be:
1
5
0
3
6
0 (0 needs to include in output for distinction in the sets)
(a)IS THIS POSSIBLE TO DO IN ONE SELECT STATEMET? and HOW?
(b)If I create another temp table tempPEOPLE and select distinct row information of the 2'nd, 3'rd and 4'th columns from the PEOPLE table and
then selecting SlNo's where the information match, I am able to get o/p
1
5
3
6
without 0...and I cannot makeout the distinct sets in this.
HOW DO I FIND THE DISTINCTION IN SETS?
Reshma.
Hope this is in the right thread, sorry if not!
I have run into a problem, i need to find out that column(s) in a table that makes the primary key.
I thought that this code did the trick.
***
DECLARE @c varchar(4000), @t varchar(128)
SET @c = ''
SET @t='contact_pmc_contact_relations'
Select @c = @c + c.name + ',' FROM syscolumns c INNER JOIN sysobjects o ON o.id = c.id inner join sysindexkeys k on o.id = k.id WHERE o.name = @t and k.colid = c.colid ORDER BY c.colid
SELECT Substring(@c, 1, Datalength(@c) - 1)
***
This works in most of my cases. But i have encounterd tabels where this code doesn't work.
Here is a dump from one of the tabels where it doesn't work.
SELECT *
FROM sysindexkeys
WHERE (id = 933578364) <--id of the table
***
id indid colid keyno
933578364 1 1 1
933578364 1 2 2
933578364 2 1 1
933578364 3 2 1
933578364 4 3 1
933578364 5 4 1
933578364 6 5 1
933578364 7 6 1
933578364 8 7 1
Not sure if that dump made any sense, but i hope it did.
If i look at the table in SQL Enterprise manager there is no relations, no indexes only my primarykey made up with 2 columns (column id 1 and 2).
So, anyone know how i could solve this problem?

Hi all,
Can anyone suggest me on Adding primary key to a table which has already a primary key.

I have 2 tables with 2 fields in common between them. How do I get a count of rows in table 1 but not in table 2 matching those 2 fields? Thanks.
I have a script that creates these spin off tables (used for lightning fast access) on a near daily basis. But it is possible the table does not exist for that day - in which the script need to check one day back - so on and so forth until finding the most recently created table.
The script I have written fails with overflow error.
I was hoping someone could tell me the correct syntax to accomplish this and also why i recieve this overflow error...
Code:
Dim str_SQL_Asset_1
daysBack = 1
tblFound = FALSE
Dim xbl_Holdings_date
Dim xMonth
Dim xDay
xbl_Holdings_date = date()
If Len(Month(xbl_Holdings_date))=1 Then
xMonth = "0" & Month(xbl_Holdings_date)
Else
xMonth = Month(xbl_Holdings_date)
End If
If Len(Day(xbl_Holdings_date))=1 Then
xDay = "0" & Day(xbl_Holdings_date)
Else
xDay = Day(xbl_Holdings_date)
End If
DO WHILE tblFound = FALSE
xbl_Holdings_Name = "xbl_Holdings_" & Year(xbl_Holdings_date) & "_" & xMonth & "_" & xDay
SQL_tblCheck_STR = "SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES " & _
"WHERE table_name = '" & xbl_Holdings_Name & "' "
Set MM_checkCmd = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
MM_checkCmd.ActiveConnection = conn_str_ClientDB
MM_checkCmd.Source = SQL_tblCheck_STR
MM_checkCmd.CursorType = 0
MM_checkCmd.CursorLocation = 2
MM_checkCmd.LockType = 3
MM_checkCmd.Open()
IF MM_checkCmd.EOF Then
xbl_Holdings_date = (xbl_Holdings_date - daysBack)
daysBack = daysBack + 1
tblFound = FALSE
ELSE
tblFound = TRUE
MM_checkCmd.CLOSE()
SET MM_checkCmd = Nothing
END IF
loop
The goal of this snippet is simply to identify and set the value for the existing table name.
An example table name would be "xbl_Holdings_2006_12_10".
I could have posted this question in the VB forum but I would like to push as much of the work onto SQL as possible and also - this sort of operation is more likely to be required of a dba imo.

I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code:
SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName,

Hi Friends,
Is there any way to find the time when the last DDL was happened in a table?
For example: The time when the new column(s) were added into a table or changed the datatype.
Thanks for the help in advance.
--Raj
Is there a way to find out when the last modification or change to data in a table occured ? How about the last change of a view ?
We'd like to be able to extract data to another table based on a view. Then, at a later date, check to see if the first table or view has changed since the last extract. If not, then we don't need to re-extract the data, we know it hasn't changed.
Can this be done easilly through a stored proc?

Hi i've to table where i have a product code and a area code.
I want to insert the values from table 1 into table 2 if the product code and area code do not already exists in the table in table 2.

select distinct p_code1, area_code
from table1
where not exists
(select p_code, area_code

A client has a site, that requires users to log in, and each login is logged with IP in this table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Event](
[EventId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[EventTypeId] [int] NOT NULL,
[IP] [varchar](50) NULL,
[UserId] [int] NULL
[DateCreated] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_Event_DateCreated] DEFAULT (getdate()),
CONSTRAINT [PK_Event] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EventId] ASC
)
How the client wants me to write a query, that will find "suspected abuse of accounts" - defined by being successful logins made within one hour from at least 3 different IPs.
So I need to check for events, that are within one hour from each other (datecreated field) and have the same userID - and EventTypeId - but at least 3 different IPs.
Maybe it's just late in the day or I am overworked, but I cant seem to find an effective way to approach this.
Ideas?

My database is case insensitive. However, the application is case sensitive for the data in the table.
I need to find out the data from the table where the data is stored in lower case.
Here is the sample data:
Table: inv_manager
column: sku varchar(5)
Data: 1134X
1135x
1123a
b145Y
I just need query to return row 2, 3, 4.
Here is my query:
select sku from inv_manager where sku like lower('%[a-z]%')
The problem is it returns all the rows from the table including first one.
How can I return just the data with lower case ?
Thanks

Hi i have set up two very simple tables, I want a user to be able to create a basic account ( data stored in User_Profile table with Id set as the Primery Key as Identity) I
want the user to be able to be able to return to their account at a later date
and then post multiple reviews of different bands they have seen at a later date.
I kept the tables in my example very simple so I could get my head
around the concept, but generally, I want to connect the Id (PK) value in
User_Profile table to the User_Id filed in the User_Review table,
so every review that user writes, will be connected directly to their Id.
Any help you could give would be fantastic a i have no idea where to start!!!
User_Profile
Id int, ( as primary Identity Key)
Name
City
Country
I have a second table called User Reviews
User_Revews
Revew_Id int , ( as primary Identity Key)
User_Id int, ( I want this to contain the Id value in
the User profile Table)
Review_Details
Thanks
