Hi,
is there a way in SQL Server 7, to use some sql to extract the entire database schema?
I know that with the Enterprise manager there is All Tasks- Generate SQL Scripts.
But I need to connect to the database and use some sql to do this.
Any suggestions?
Thankyou

Hi, I'm looking for a way to take an XML feed and basically do what this article describes: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/05/MetaDataServices/
(In short, take in XML, generate a database generation script, creating that database, then load the XML data into said database.)
But, the above article involves user interaction and I would like this all automated, ie: in .NET 2.0/C#
Does anyone know how to do this?
Cheers,
Matt.
Hi All,
I require to compare two database structures.This is what I went for:
I generated scripts (right click on the database --> All Tasks--> Generate Scripts) for all tables in the two given databases and compared them.
The problem is that the order of the tables in the generated scripts are different. Can I control this order by any possible means?
Thanks in advance.
I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express edition SP1 in my system. I have created a database in the instance. Now when I try to generate scripts of tables using Right click on database > Click on Task > Click on Generate Scripts, it is showing Error in Action 'Getting the list of objects from <database>'.

Using the scripting wizard in SQL Server 2005 database engine, I have been able to script all my DDL out to a flat file which is great; however, when I scripts for instance all views I would like to have the script in alphabetical order by view name, is there a value I can set to accomplish this?
Thanks
hi,
I am developing a ASP.NET application using SQL Server as my database.
I want to create a number that is unique.
The number will have 8 digits.
first 2 digits correspond to year. ex:04 or 03
the next 6 digits start with 000001 and it should get added for each new entry of data.
i am not able to generate number in the way i said. I am relatively new to SQL. so any suggestions as how to go about solving the problem???. Are there any samples/codes available for this.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
thanks,

Hi all,
I have generated an SQL script such that when it is run, it will automatically create tables if not existing or drop the existing tables. The problem I have is that, is there any way I can also make the script create not only the tables but also transfer the data from the old database to the new database?
I would really appreciate if any of you could point me to any existing programs, scripts etc that can do that. Thanks in advance

Is there a way to generate SQL Scripts from a stored procedure?
For disaster recovery and documenation reasons, we'd like to create scripts of our databases periodically. I, being somewhat lazy, would like to automate this so I really don't have to remember to run this every so often.
Any help would be appreciated.
Is there a way to generate SQL scripts from other than SQL Enterprise Manager?

SELECTconvert(varchar(10), getdate(), 12) +
(SELECT
CASE
WHEN SUBSTRING(ISNULL(max(seed),'00000'),1,6) = convert(varchar(10), getdate(), 12)
THEN SUBSTRING(ISNULL(max(seed),'00000'),7,12)
ELSE '000000'
END AS SEED
FROM B)
+ (row_number()
over (order by Id))
as SEED
FROM A
SEED

we would like to generate SSIS packages(connections, data flow tasks, etc..) programatically using C#. Is it possible to do so?
At present we are creating packages by dragging and dropping required componets from toolbox and configuring them manually. We have a requirement of creating around 300 packages every week. Manual creation of packages is really a nightmare.
I heard from one of friends that using c# we can create packages. is it true? if so, can we view/edit the packages generated using c# using VS 2005 IDE(if required) ?

Hello,
SRS 2005 provides functionality for loading and rendering reports on fly using LoadReportDefinition and Render methods defined in ReportExecutionService webservice.

Many thanks in advance.
I'm having problems generating the primary key for a sql server table. I use a slowly changing dimension to discriminate modified and new records. The primary key in the SQL Server table is a combo number/letter incremental (ex. 0000A, 0001A...9999A, 0000B...). I tried creating Instead of insert and For insert trigger for a table but this doesn't seem to do the work.
What are my other options? How can I generate a primary key for every new row?
Any advice is appreciated.

Hello all,
I have a few questions relating to scripts and I'm looking for some help, or at least a point in the right direction.
1) I'm generating CREATE scripts to move a number of tables/procedures/functions from my testing database to my production database. The issue I have is the script doesn't seem to be generated in a particular order, so I'm getting errors when a table/procedure/function is created that references something that hasn't been created yet. Is there a setting available to create the script in a specific order to prevent these errors?
2) This is somewhat related to the first question. I need to drop all the tables/procedures/functions before I re-create them. Can I set all the DROPs at the beginning of the script, and then run all the CREATEs?
3) Eventually the database will be ready for production and in use. And eventually I'll be asked to make changes, without erasing existing data. Can I accomplish this using the generate scripts feature? What topics should I be investigating when looking into conducting these types of updates? "Updating database" is too general and I'm not sure the technical term. I've done very simple DB-related tasks so I'm trying to figure out what I'm looking for so I can educate myself. Basically, I don't know what I don't know.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I have a question about generating membership numbers on the fly when someone registers to my website.
Rather than using the auto increment field as a membership number, I would rather keep it as just as the ID for the record and I would like to have a seperate membership number that looks something similar to this...
SR357324J
This will then stay with them for the lifetime of their membership and be on their printed loyalty card.
My questions are...
1) Is there a 'good practice' for membership number format and generation?
2) If this was used as a unique field, is there a degradation in performance when looking up records due to it being alphanumeric.
I may be well off base here, however these are my thoughts so far and your opinion/help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your contribution.

Hi,
I have a table with a primary key, what I really need is something like an IDENTITY, but with the character 'X' and the last to digits of the year added on the front. Is there another way to update the field automatically like an IDENTITY would do, automatically incrementing as fields are inserted.
Hello
I'm looking for a way of generating the next key value that works in MS and Sybase SQL Servers. Sybase identity columns are a bit dodgy, so...
If I have a separate table NextKey (NextKey int) with one row that I update as follows...
declare @NextKey int
update NextKey set NextKey = NextKey + 1, @NextKey = NextKey + 1
insert into myTable (PrimaryKeyCol, ....) values (@NextKey, ....)
are there any problems with concurrency ? As I see it the update will lock the row so different connections will always come up with a different @NextKey value....
Thanks

Hi there..
We are developing an INtranet application using SQL Server 2000 and ASPs, we are looking for a way to Generate a Module wise Scripts(Database Scripts like Table Scripts / Stored Procedure / Triggers / Functions etc).

Hello,
I need to know how to generating a sequence number, for example, from 300,000 to 900,000 without skipping any number due to failure. For example, if user 1 request a number then he/she will get 300000 in a transaction. User 2 will get 300001. How ever user 1's transaction fails, then the next request should get 300000. Is it possible to do this in SQL2K? If so, how do I create a table that and stored procedure that can do this.
Thank you so much.
