I have a question regarding generating SQL script from a database.
If you use SQL Server Management Express, it lets you generate SQL
script that can be used to recreate table structure, stored procedures,
etc. But it does not include the actual data stored in the tables.
I have a database which will be generated via script. However there are some tables with default data that need to exist on the database.I was wondering if there could be a program that could generate inserts statments for the data in a table.I know about the import / export program that comes with SQL but it doesnt have an interface that lets you copy the insert script and values into an SQL file (or does it?)
I have an SQL data source on my page and I select "Table". On the next screen I pick the fields I want to show. Then I click the "Advanced" button because I want to allow Inserts, updates and deletes. But its all greyed out abd I can't check this option. The UID in the connection string I am connecting under has the correct permissions in SQL server to do inserts, update and deletes too. Anyone know why it would be greyed out? The connectionstring property in the aspx code is dynamic but this shouldn't be the reason because I have used this before with success
I need to write some insert statements, 1 per table, ~100 tables, all having the approximante form:
Select Into TableA Select * From TableB
Except that I need explicit statements:
Select Into TableA Col1, Col2, Col3, ... ColN Values ...
The reason is that I need to preserve the current identity values (it's a replication setup scenario). I can set Identity_Insert On, but then it wants the explicit column names and values.
Is there a wizard or utility that will generate the statements for me? With 100 tables in the db, I'm not looking forward to writing it all :-)
TIA, Arthur
PS. Given that it's Easter weekend, if you have an answer could you please e me directly? Thanks!
does anyone know if there is a way to generate an insert script basedon the records in a table? I want to distribute the contents of acouple of tables to customers without having to use BCP or DTS.Greetings Sjaak
I rememeber they used to have this option to generate data script for the table in SQL 2000, but I can not find it in SQL 2005. I need to move one table from one database to another, but I need to generate SQL Insert Statements...
I have seen in Enterprise manager there is a toll that can script the all tables in a database, but nothing that can generate the insert statements for all the rows in each table in a secified database.
Does any one know of a application, plug in, script that can generate the insert statments for all the tables in a database?
I have a web page where the user can select the language (FR, EN, BG, ...) in a drop down list.
Next to the drop down list there is a text box where user can type the some text (translation).
User can add several description
On my web page, i have a button this button collect all information create an xml file and save all in database (sql server 2008)
that's work fine for some language => FR, EN and so on
But for bulgarian (bulgare) and greece there are some problem...
Some characters when i display it in sql look like => ???s??. ? d??ta?? a?t?
The value encoded by the user is => Ένωσης. Η διάταξη αυτή
but the result after t sql xpath is => ???s??. ? d??ta?? a?t?
Here is it my sql code where you can find my temporary table and my xml file and my xpath query
declare @tblTranslation table (idDocID int, languageID varchar(10), value varchar(500)) declare @Translations XML
set @Translations = '<?xml version="1.0" ?><Items><Item><eleKey>EN</eleKey><eleValue>This is a test</eleValue></Item><Item><eleKey>FR</eleKey><eleValue>test</eleValue></Item><Item><eleKey>BG</eleKey><eleValue>Ένωσης. Η διάταξη αυτή</eleValue></Item><Item><eleKey>HR</eleKey><eleValue></eleValue></Item><Item><eleKey>RO</eleKey><eleValue></eleValue></Item></Items>'
-- 2) fill the temporary table with information from the xml file
INSERT INTO @tblTranslation(idDocID, languageID, value) SELECT 1 , Convert(nvarchar(max), i.query('eleKey/text()')) as colKey , Convert(nvarchar(max), i.query('eleValue/text()')) as colValue -- FROM @translations.nodes('/Items/Item') as x(i) SELECT * FROM @tblTranslation
I'd I have a problem I'd like to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statementsthat will create my table and insert data into the table.I can use the scripting feature in Enterprise Manager to generate CREATETABLE scripts.Is there a script I can run that will generate INSERT statements so I caninclude sample data.Thanks
I am using SQL 2012 SE. I have 2 databases say A and B with same structure and relationships. There are 65 tables in each database. A is already replicating data to database C for 35 tables. Now I need to move data from A to B which is greater than getdate()-1 everyday for all the tables and once the move is done I need to delete this data from A. And samething the next day. Since this is for 65 tables its challenging to identify the insert order. Once the insert order is identified the delete order will be the reverse of it.
Is there a tool or any SP that could generate the insert order script? The generate scripts data only is generating the entire data and these databases are almost 400GB. So I thought of generating a schema only script and then create an empty database with it and then generate data only to identify the order of insert. But it wont generate anything since there is no data.
How are you guys doing? Hope all is well. This is my problem...I accidentally deleted a bunch of my SQL scripts and would like to generate the INSERT statements from Management Studio. I am currently using SQLExpress. Is there a way I can accomprish my task? Kindly advise.
I have a package in which, when a Cost Center has X as a value, I must insert not X but many different Y value, which are associated with X. How can I gather and treat those Y values? Only using a Script Component?
I had to enable identity_insert on a bunch of tables and I have already done that. Now I need to modify my insert into select * from statements to include column list names along with identity columns for select as well as insert statements. The DDL is same but they are both different databases.There are almost 100 tables that it needs to be modified. Is there a way we can generate scripts for insert and select for each individual table along with their column lists including the identity column?
I am writing a query to return some production data. Basically i need to insert either 1 or 2 rows into a Table variable based on a decision as to does the production part make 1 or 2 items ( The Raw data does not allow for this it comes from a look up in my database)
I can retrieve all the source data i need easily but when i come to insert it into the table variable i need to insert 1 record if its a single part or 2 records if its a twin part. I know could use a cursor but im sure there has to be an easier way !
Below is the code i have at the moment
declare @startdate as datetime declare @enddate as datetime declare @Line as Integer DECLARE @count INT
set @startdate = '2015-01-01' set @enddate = '2015-01-31'
I am needing to o exactly what Zippygoose says (with ordered ID numbers). How do yo make an insert statement that will make a loop until let's say the ID reaches 8000??
Thanks in advanced,
Edit: User needs to fill his tables with sample data. (Sorry for the edit, but I prefer to split this thread instead of continuing an old one (2003!!)).
Dear All, I have some problems with the assignment from my professor.
Suppose there are two tables storing first names and last names, one table with column of first name and gender, the other with last name.
how to write stored procedures to get a random first name + random last name for Males or Female. like you got a list of all M & F first name and last name, then you try to match first name with any other last name (I believe this is random).
and the task is to write a script so each time when a female or male full name is need, it will return a random name for the requested gender.
I am totally struck and no idea how to deal with it, in fact I am just a beginning in SQL server, and I know there is a stored procedure to generate random number, however, I can't see the use of it here,,,,:eek:
Could anyone help me out ? thanks very much !!!:beer:
I'm a network admin who understands sql but have no reason to write it everyday so I have no idea how to approach this problem.
I am trying to generate usage statistics of our computer labs. I have written a few scripts that populate a sql 2005 database with the following information:
[datetime] [username] [computer] [event] 2007-10-10 15:25:03 tom earth logon 2007-10-10 15:39:09 john mars logon 2007-10-10 15:41:13 dave pluto logoff 2007-10-10 15:47:29 john mars logoff 2007-10-10 15:59:48 tom earth logoff
Each time a user logs on or logs off one of our lab computers the information is inserted into this database.
It seems that was the easy part. Lacking any local sql experts, I'm pondering where to go from here to generate usage statistics.
What I'm thinking is a SQL query (which I don't know how I'd write) that would calculate the session time and insert it into a new table. A session is defined as the time between a logon and logoff where the username and computer match.
The new table would look something like this:
[user] | [computer] | [sessionTime] | [day] tom | earth | 00:34:45 | 2007-10-10 john | mars | 00:08:20 | 2007-10-10
The logic of the query finds the first logon event and matches it with the first logoff event in which the username and computer match. It then subtracts the logon datetime from the logoff to calculate session time.
Is this a reasonable approach? Is the query easy to write?
Can Anyone tell me how to generate script with all table data from one database.I can generate script with table structure but not with table data.I want to generate with Table data.
i'm not able to generate a sql script with the data in the tables! using sql express. i need this script to ganerate the same database with its datas in a new sql server. thanks in advance
It might be an old question but wanted to see, if we have any latest techniques (other than bcp).
SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM MyTable
If I want to export the output of the above query to a csv on a network folder? I would like to avoid usage of SSIS package or BCP (as user needs to get additional rights to execute bcp).

I am wanting to fire-off an email with the failed jobs anytime they are deposited into a table. My syntax fires off an email even when the table does not contain data, it just sends a blank email. this will only generate an email if teh table contains data?
if exists (Select from FailedJobs) exec msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail @profile_name = 'DatabaseMail' @recipients = 'asdfasdfsdf@aafas.com' @from_address = 'asdfasdfacasca@cc.com' @query = 'Select * from failedjobs' @subject = 'List Of Failed Jobs' @attach_query_result_as_file = 1;
I have a table which is already populated with data (Microsoft SQL 2008). I have now created a new column (int) which i want to populate with sequential numbers so that the new column created will serve let me know how many records exist in the table at a glance.
what SQL statement I need to write that will automatically polulate the newly created column with 1,2,,3,4,5 etc so that I can sort of number the records within the table.
I have 50000 records which I need to number and I really dont want to number the column manually via hand editing.
