Hi,
i have the following requirement
Can a stored procedure in SQL Server 2005 generate XML data based on the schema, We don't prefer to manually build an xml string inside the stored proc?
Is there any SQL Server 2005 feature to do it if possible?
i appreciate your help.
Thanks,

During web-site development, I am using VStudio 2005 with SQL-Express. I frequently publish changes to my web server that is running SQL- Server 2000 standard edition.
Is there a simple way to replicate changes in database tables design without copying the whole mdf-file and loosing the existing data in the target database?
thanks, Reinhard
I want to create multiple partition schema on a single table.
For example - i need to create partition base on region id and Territory Id.
How can I easily identify who dropped a table?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI would like to show a datagrid where the columns are the last 12 months from whatever today is. I am drawing from what could be a rather large tagle in the DB. The Table looks like this:LogID LogTally LogDate Item
1 2 3/28/03 apples
2 1 3/29/03 apples
3 2 4/01/03 oranges
4 3 4/01/03 apples
5 1 4/01/03 grapes
.......
293 1 3/17/04 oranges
294 1 3/17/04 apples And if someone wants to see a report on apples, they would see something like:3/03 4/03 5/03..................3/04
3 3 - 3I can select one month (this one) like this:SELECT SUM(LogTally) AS Expr1
FROM TABLE
WHERE (MONTH(GETDATE()) = MONTH(LogDate)) AND (YEAR(GETDATE()) = YEAR(LogDate)) AND (item = 'apples')
GROUP BY itembut, I just don't know how to do it for the past 12 months. Do I play with the dates and do 12 seperate SELECTS?
THANK YOU!

Hello,I need to change collation in my database (more databases acctualy).Therefore, I wanted to make a script, which will do it at one moretime.I already have a cursor, updating collation on all tables (fields) indatabase.The problem is, before I will to update the collations, I need to dropall constrains and pk's.But I do not want to erase them. After the collation will be updated,these should be restored.Therefore I wanted to additionaly script all cs, pk's for all tables,drop them, and after updateing the collation, update the tables.Does enyone have an idea how to do that? Or how can I get (in tsql) anstring containing information like:ALTER TABLE [dbo].[PrmUserGroup] ADDCONSTRAINT [FK_PrmUserGroup_PrmGroup] FOREIGN KEY([id_group]) REFERENCES [dbo].[PrmGroup] ([id]) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE ,CONSTRAINT [FK_PrmUserGroup_PrmUser] FOREIGN KEY([id_user]) REFERENCES [dbo].[PrmUser] ([id]) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADEGOIf i can have such a part of script (it will complete script of cs andpk's) i could store it temporary in the table, and after updating acollation, run them with dynamic sql.Or maybe there is any other, better way?Thank you in advanceMateusz

Hi,
I am using SQLServer and I would like to track changes or generate scripts for every change or alteration made to the table.. Please help me with any ideas..

I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely,

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.

I'd like to create a temporary table with the same schema as an exiting table. How can I do this without hard coding the column definitions into the temporary table definition?
I'd like to do something like:
CREATE TABLE #tempTable LIKE anotherTable
..instead of...
CREATE TABLE #tempTable (id INT PRIMARY KEY, created DATETIME NULL etc...
I'm sure there must be a simple way to do this!
Many thanks,

Other than right-clicking on each individual table in SSMS and generating a CREATE script, is there a simple way to generate CREATE TABLE scripts for tables within a given database?
Background: I have a bunch of tables in one database, and I would like to add tables to a second database that have the same names and basic structures of some of the tables from the first database.
I do not need to transfer any data from the tables, this is a seperate project that will use a similar data structure. I just want to generate the CREATE TABLE scripts for 30ish tables within the first database, and then I'll tweak the scripts as appropriate and run them against the new database.

Hi
I come from a MySQL background and have been having some trouble finding the MSSQL command that corresponds to MySQL's "describe." I Googled for around 1/2 hour but can't seem to find it.
Any help appreciated
Hey,
I'm looking at creating a table in a stored procedure
[declare @tempTable table]
however, rather than then declaring the tables schema
[declare @tempTable table (pkField IDENTITY (1,1), SomeOtherField varchar(50), ...)]
I'd like it to simply use the schema of an already existing table (plus an additional column).
Is there a way to do this without having to manually write the table schema?
A simple example is:
I have a table
OriginalTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol)
I'd like to create a temp instance of that table called tempTable which would have a final schema of
tempTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol, myTempCol)
The reason I'd like to do this using the schema is so that I don't need to update all my procedures in the future when we decide to add some more detail to the originaltable which needs to be selected as well.
Thanks a lot for any help or direction you can provide.

Hi Gurus,
I am looking for a script which lists me the differences between two table schemas.

We currently have all tables in the dbo schema, but for organizational reason we would like to split them up in multiple schemas and I wonder if that can be done without re-creating the tables.
So my question is, is there a way to move a table into a different schema without re-creating it? (For those familiar with Postgres I'm looking for an equivalent to "ALTER TABLE foo SET SCHEMA newschema") sp_rename only allows a "one-part name" for the new name, so apparently that cannot be used.
I have created a table on SQL Server from SAS. The table gets created fine. However, the table schema has my user ID in it (AD-ENTmyuserid.Table1). How can I change the schema to dbo.(dbo.Table1)? It's fine if I have to make this change in SQL Server Management Studio.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am a bit confused and wish to share this with you for help. We are designing a billing application to bill telephone calls. It currently handles a single rate plan. So what it does is that it looks up the RATES table and matches the called number area code with the RATES.ACCESS_Code field to find the tariff for that area and multiplies that by the number of minutes. Here is the current schema.
CALLS
•ID (pkid)
•Called Number
•Duration
RATES
•Destination Name
•Access_Code (pkid)
•Tariff
Now the problem is that we need to process calls based on RATES per OPERATOR. Each operator is a telephony carrier with similar RATES. However, each call will be prefixed with a number to indicate which operator carried that call. Accordingly, the database should relate that prefix with the proper operator and then looks up the RATES that are related to that operator.
In conclusion we will have a replica of the RATES table for multiple operators. An operator is only supposed to have two fields I guess (name and ID).
So now we need to re-engineer the schema to adapt to this situation.
Eg. 95004433313445 (Will be identified as BT operator)
93004422376234 (Will be identified as AT&T operator)
Can anyone help please?
PS: we are using SQL Express 2005

I created a schema, Admin. I have to transfer a table from the dbo schema to the admin schema. I keep getting an error that I do not have permission or the table does not exist.
Simply looking for confirmation here - is my syntax correct?
ALTER SCHEMA Admin TRANSFER MyShop.Addresses;
(MyShop is the Database, Addresses is the table)
NOTE: When I created the schema, I did not create an inner table. The syntax for that was simply CREATE SCHEMA Admin;

I have a table.
Column AColumn BColumn C
123
456
I need the schema details of the table like datatype of column A , B and C as well as default values of all the columns and all other details of those 3 columns.
Quick question:Does SQL do table/schema changes "in place"?I've got a large table (140+ million rows of very widedata) that we want to change the schema on -- basicallyto remove a number of the unused data elements that wedon't use.Anyway, does anyone know if SQL will do an in-placechange, or if it will copy the table to a new table, therebyincreasing my space allocation needs? I'd effectively,temporarily, need space for two tables while the changeis happening if it copies the table first. This is not good asI do not have enough available space at the moment.If you've got pointers to specific MS docs regardingthis issue, please let me have 'em.Thanks in advance.

I need to edit a column (PK - GUID) from "Row is GUID = False) to (Row is GUID = True). I get a DLL internal error.
I hate to drop the table & recreate from scratch...wish you could edit in SSMSE.
Also, I used sync services to create the SDF, you would think that it would be the same as the MDF (just a gripe...sorry )
VB 2008
SQL 2005 Express
SSMSE SP2

Locally I develop in SQL server 2005 enterprise. Recently I recreated my db on the server of my hosting company (in sql server 2005 express).I basically recreated the tables and copied the data in it.I now receive the following error when I hit the DB:The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a
database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the
current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may
need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe
(available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the
provider to a newer version.I heard something about running aspnet_regsql.exe, but I dont have that access to the DB. Also I dont know if this command does anything more than creating the membership tables and filling it with some default data...Any other solutions/thought on what this can be?Thanks!
