Handling GUID/UniqueIdentifier

Jun 19, 2007

Hi,



I am presently working on a ETL Process of importing data from XML source to the database (SQL Server 2000/2005).



I have GUID data in the XML file and i need to import that data into the database tables.



My Clarification is, if i import the GUID from XML to the database table, in the future, if the Database Engine generates new GUID's for new data, is there a posibility that the database engine might generate SAME guid as the one i imported from XML? As the GUID's in XML were not generated by the target Database Engine, can the database engine possibly generate the same GUID similar to the one i imported from XML?



Regards,

Vikram

Using GUID / Uniqueidentifier As Primary Key

Jul 6, 2006

<BACKGROUND INFO> We are in the database design stage of creating a db and we plan to use a GUID as the primary key for our tables (the app will be a smart client and will need to support offline functionality so when the app comes back online and the queued up inserts come thru we want to ensure that the primary keys are unique). We plan to have the app generate the guid and to send the GUID over as a parameter i.e.

<code>GUID myPrimaryKey = GUID.NewID(); </code>

and will not be using the DEFAULT NEWID clause on the CREATE TABLE statements.
</BACKGROUND INFO>

<QUESTION > Is it better to make the data type for the primary key columns to be uniqueidentifier or should the datatype be varchar(36).</QUESTION>

I only ask this because the tables have already been created with the primary key columns having a datatype of varchar(36) and changing them would be a little bit of work. Not a big deal but don't want to do it if we don't have to. If its really advantageous we will go ahead and do it but if not we would like to leave it as is. Thanks for your thoughts!

Shortcut To Insert New GUID Into Uniqueidentifier Cell In MSSQL Management Studio Express?

Jul 15, 2006

Hi,

anyone knows if there's an easy way to insert new GUIDs into uniqueidentifier cells when editing data in table on Management Studio Express? or Visual Studio 2005 Server Explorer? I can't find a shortcut, and copying from external tools is pain..

I suppose it's possible to build a VB macro in Visual Studio, would it work when editing table data?

Thanks in advance!

Handling / Converting SQL 'uniqueidentifier'

Mar 18, 2007

my environment: WXP pro, VisualStudio 2005, SQL express Adv. with SP1
When running below code I get following error on statement Nr:14.
Error:"Implicit conversion from data type sql_variant to uniqueidentifier is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query."
What would I like to achieve:In 'mr.memberid' (9) I correctly get the PrimaryKey as 'uniqueidentifier'. In another .aspx.vb file I later use 'Session("MemberGuid")' to fill correctly a GridView based on this value!
Now, on statements (11 - 14) I would like to insert a record where field 'Member' ('Type' is also 'uniqueidentifier') should be filled using this 'uniquidentifier, but as said, I get above msg.
When using (11, no String in 'mr.member' !):'SqlDSEnrolled.InsertParameters("Member").DefaultValue = mr.memberid' I get error msg: "Value of type 'System.Guid' cannot be converted to 'String'."
Can anybody help me on how to achieve this Conversion correctly and where to do the conversion? Thanks for your timeed1 Protected Sub EnrollButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

Uniqueidentifier

Jul 17, 2003

Hi,

I am using UNIQUEIDENTIFIER column for my table. I do not insert data for it. I left it on database by setting to default NEWID(). Now in my application I need the value of UNIQUEIDENTIFIER column I just inserted. Is there any function or query to get this value like in case of IDENTITY column we can get the latest inserted value from select @@IDENTITY.

Thanks and regards,
Uday

so what datatype i should use for identification(primary key).

Uniqueidentifier Inner Join Int

Nov 5, 2007

I have a table with id(uniqueidentifier) as the primary key, and another table with id(int) as the foreign key.
When I try to INNER JOIN them on id=id  in a view, I get an error that uniqueidentifier and int are incompatible.
I'm new to SQL SERVER and I consider uniqueidentifier as equal to AutoNumber in MSAccess. Isn't it so? If not, how do I make this JOIN work?

Return A UNIQUEIDENTIFIER

Feb 9, 2005

Hi,

I am writing a C# application that uses a SQL server database to hold its data. I need to create a stored procedure that returns a particular row's primary key value. This is no problem if the primary key is an INT. But my primary key is a unique identifier, and the stored procedure doesn't want to let me return any values that aren't INTs. Can someone please tell me how to get around this?

Thanks in advance.

Nov 10, 2005

Hello everyone.
I have 2 tables in MSSQL Server 2000, Products(idProduct, idProductType, name, quatity) and ProductsType(idProductType, name).

idXXXX are the primery keys and the data type is uniqueidentifier.

In table Products, the collum idProductType is a foreign key refering table ProductsType.

I can insert as many product types as i want without any problems.
Insert INTO ProductsType(name) VALUES('milk')

When inserting products i use the idProductType that was automatacly generated in last insert.
INSERT INTO Products (uuidProductType,name,quantity,)
VALUES ('AD9388A3-CA86-482D-B57F-6FA068E7D405','President Milk 50cl',500)

but i got the following error in SQL Query Analyzer:

Syntax error converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier.

I have searched the forum and i cant find any solution. i need to use uniqueidentifer data types because replication with PDA devices.

Any tips?

The funny thing is that i copied the sp code from another which runs perfect,
I insert a Guid from an asp.net page.

Hi all,I'm trying to run a select where auniqueidentifier/GUID equals a hex, but I don't seem to be gettingmatches.For example, this query returns the expected record:select * from items where itemGUID ='{11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555}'But this one does not:select * from items where itemGUID = 0x11111111222233334444555555555555Any tips?thanks, -Scott

Uniqueidentifier Vs. Identity

Jul 26, 2007

So, what's the common preference out there for primary and/or surrogate keys? Uniqueidentifier or identity?
(No replication is involved.)

UniqueIdentifier As Primary Key.

Jan 17, 2008

SQL2K SP4

Greetings. I just inherited doscovered a 3gb DB that is chewing up lots of CPU time on a pretty beefy server. This DB uses 4 main tables. It has many more, but most of the Inserts/ Updates/ Deletes/ and Joins are done mainly on 4 tables. Anyways, I figured out which sprocs use the most CPU between the hours of 7 and 7 every day, off to a good start. The first one is hardly every run. While it is a pig in terms of CPU usage, the amount of times it's run is somewhat minimal compared to others. So the next one is is a sproc that does auto refreshes, and is run every minute by thousands. I start to analyze it, particularly for missing indexes, but all is well. So I'm beating my head up against the wall and I realize, THE CLUSTERED PRIMARY KEY (PK) FOR THESE TABLES USE A GUID DATA TYPE....

So I have some questions about this data type, and also inserting into a clustered PK in general.



Are joins on this data type as bad as joining on varchar columns in terms of speed?

I don't see that any of my insert sprocs are taking a long time. So if an insert occurs, and a page split needs to happen (which is quite potential with this data type as a clustered PK), does it -- A) Begin the insert, complete the insert, then do a page split? Or does it -- B) Begin the insert, do the page split, then complete the insert?
If A, it would make sense that I would see no lag for my insert sprocs, but also see a high CPU usage (provided I have a high number of page splits, which is yet to be determined. If B, I would expect to see a lot of long running insert sprocs, which I don't.

Uniqueidentifier Question

Feb 21, 2008



I have a table that contains a uniqueidentifier column and then another table that contains a foreign-key column, but is set up as varchar. I am building a stored procedure, however I get the following error: "Syntax error converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier"

I tried casting the UID column to a varchar, but this does not work either.

This is a simple select where the column in the foreign table is equal to the ID column of the main table.

Is there a way to solve this without having to make any table changes?

Thanks for the help.

GUID&#39;s

Feb 1, 2001

we are currently using id's as primary key and replication is not part of our project.
will this be a problem if we decide to do replication? will microsoft generate an identifier then.
what is the advantages of using GUID now or doing it latter?

GUID

May 26, 2006

Hello,

I'm working on a smart client app that has an offline sql express store and needs to work with several types of central databases (support for multiple products - ms sql, DB2 etc)

While trying to put together some offline functionality that needs the user to create records on the offline sql express data store, we've run into the need of being able to uniquely identify records so replicating the data in the offline store back into the primary database should not be a problem.

The data created offline spans many tables and involves several tables with relation ships - FK etc...Clearly not a simple case of store and forward.

We dont want to get into the mess of performing key replacement during a synch job with the server. Thats way too much trouble.

GUID seems like a good choice, but as always we have several stake holders having different opinions. And with databases other than MS SQL we will have to store them as strings.

To cut to the chase - can we not hash a GUID to get an integer while retaining atleast the same likelyhood of producing unique ids ? [no drop]

Thanks,

Aviansh

Uniqueidentifier Vs Identity Performance

Aug 30, 2006

Hello,I am using the login controls in 2.0. Each new member has a UserId created : it's a Guid, so a uniqueidentifier in sql server.I also have many tables and stored procedures of my own, and the member id is in most of them.Here is my question: should I keep the uniqueidentifier UserId for all my tables and sp, or should I create a new memberId as an IDENTITY(int) (and for sure link it with the log in userid) in order to get a better performance. I have read many things saying that uniqueidentifiers would reduce the performance, but also others who say it won't be significant. Who's right in this uniqueidentifier vs integer competition ??? Thanks for your recommandations.
