Does anyone have a script that can add a GUID Column to multiple Tables in a Database.
The SQL script below adds a column to a single table in a database. But i need a script that can add a column to all the tables in a database. Thanks
USE ProductDB
ALTER TABLE dbo.Employees
Add EmployeeGUID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER ROWGUIDCOL NOT NULL DEFAULT NEWSEQUENTIALID()
Does anyone have a script that can add a GUID Column to multiple Tables in a Database.
For example when a table has an Identity column like EmployeeID, a column called EmployeeGUID is added to the table. When a table has an Identity column like CustomerID, a column called CustomerGUID is added to the table. When a table has an Identity column like OrderID, a column called OrderGUID is added to the table.
I intend to implement replication in SQL Server 2005, so i want to add new GUID columns to all the table in my database before implementing replication
The SQL script below adds a column to a single table in a database. But i need a script that can add a column to all the tables in a database.

How do I update the OrderGUID column in Table B with Values from OrderGUID column in Table A. I have already populated the OrderGUID column in Table A using NEWSEQUENTIALID(). Now I need to populate the OrderGUID column in Table B with Matching GUID values from the OrderGUID Column in Table A.
Does any one have a script to accomplish this task. thanks
Hello;
My Memebership table has Guid column as Primary key.
But I would like to add Auto numbering Identity column to this table.
Is this idea OK or it will bring some problems?
Thank you in advance for your help
I have a system that uses 3 tables of the same schema to track status of a transaction:
table 1: submitted
table 2: pending
table 3: confirmed
Transactions are moved from one table to another when the transactions go through different states. How do I maintain a unique identity of a transaction across the 3 tables? Some transactions are added directly to confirmed. Having a counter table affects scalability and increase blocking! Please help.
I have multiple product tables with a "ListPrice" column. I want to use a temporary table that contains "ProductID" and "ListPrice" columns and execute a stored procedure that will update the "ListPrice" column in all product tables with the "ListPrice" from temporary table where "ProductID" from temporary table matches "ProductID" in product tables.
I am new at writing stored procedures.
Hello,
Is it possible to get a list of rows from Multiple tables which have the same Column Name. I have 3 tables which comtain similar info
and I want to get a list of Names
the structure is
ID;Name;Address;Phone No.
I was thinking something along the lines of SELECT Name FROM TABLE1,TABLE2, TABLE3
But this does not work.
Is there a nice way of doing this with SQL or should I do code outside the SQL DB
I want to display records from @table1 only when combination of col2,col3 and col4 are present in @table2.In Below case I want output as: below two records only.

Managerid colums is spread across 20 tables and i need only managerid data from all the tables available, data for managerid column will be different in each table.
can anyone help me regarding the same.
OK - maybe my Google-fu is off today but I'm trying to find out if using a sequence table will provide values that are as unique as the GUID is supposed to be.The reason is that I'm building a DW from the ground up (they won't let me expense my booze which I think is grossly unfair ) and rather than using GUID it ~seems~ like a sequence table would give better results. My concern is that the values won't be unique across tables.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've searched through this forum, and am extremely disappointed that something as simple as this can't be done without resorting to a script component (which I refuse to do):
I have a Lookup transformation that returns a GUID value -- or not, so I've configured its error output to ignore failure. That should leave a NULL in the output column, and I should be able to chain a Derived Column transformation that replaces the Lookup output column (e.g. foo) with an expression like:
isnull(foo) ? newid() : foo
But there's no newid() function! Who was the genius that decided SSIS should implement different expressions than Transact SQL? Is there a workaround, like (DT_GUID)GETDATE()?
Or do I have to craft a SQL statement in the Lookup that guarantees a non-NULL result?
Does anyone have a script that can drop the Identity columns from all the tables in a database? Thanks

I want to produce some output for Mainframe application. For that I want to insert values from multiple table as source to a single column (huge in size)of a different table (Destination table). There may be same related records in all of the source tables with the primary key. When I export values from the source tables , each related records should be insterted to the destination table's field (multiple entries for each table). Please advise.
Thanks

I need to query a table if the date is = yesterday. I am searching for a way to do this everyday dynamically. Is this even possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create multiple tables in a database using a SQL Script. First i want to find all the tables that have an Identity Column as a primary key in the database. Then for all the tables that meet the Identity Column and primary key criteria, I want to create a New Table.
For example if the Orders table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_Orders. The ProdID_Orders will have 1 column called ProdID.
If the OrdersDetails table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_OrdersDetails. The ProdID_OrdersDetails will have 1 column called ProdID.
If the Employee table has a Identity Column as a primary key, I want to Create a New Table called ProdID_Employee. The ProdID_Employee will have 1 column called ProdID.
so the Create Table Statement for the ProdID_Orders will look like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ProdID_Orders](
[ProdID] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
The Create Table Statement for the ProdID_OrdersDetails will look like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ProdID_OrdersDetails](
[ProdID] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
This sequence will continue for all the tables in the database that have an Identity Column as a primary key. Thanks. I will appreciate some assistance with this.
Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are:
1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup.
1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types.
1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data.
When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
Bob
Guys, here is my scenario:
I have 3 tables
1) Vendor
2) Service
3) Service Product
Each vendor has the ability to have any number of services, all with any number of service products.
How should I setup my page so I can edit/insert vendors, and tie a list of service products and services to them?
My plan was to have a Formview with either a checkboxlist, or multilist (to select multiple items - but they don't work that way) and then store selected items in another table (each item selected with its own record) to hold onto the vendor id and tie it to a service id and a product id, but I was unsure how to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, i m using vwd 2005 express and sql express. i have created following tables table_office,table_customer,table_order in my sql express. i also added one more table named table_final. In my webform i have 2 textbox and submit button plus(controls to take values for table_office,table_customer,table_order).so when user fills the form and clicks the button the data gets inserted into thier respected tables.similarly table_final gets populated with values in this way (id,name,address,table_office_id,table_customer_id,table_order_id) Now when displaying the output in the gridview. i combined values of all these tables together. its fine till here. Now what i want is i want to write a query to retrieve these values back into the webform . Here i want the values from all the tables back into the webform controls on a click of a button.so that i can modify it manually, make updation on it and finally show it into gridview. i hope i m able to make u understand. anyway can somebody help me with simple code(C#) and sql query to achieve this task.? thanks. jack.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to have a linking table say for example we call this a claim. Based on the claim number you need to relate to one of say 6 different types of claims. The types of claims related to their own individual parent table. (individual because each type of claim tracks completely different information) does anyone have an idea on how to set this up?
Sample Structure
table = Claim
Field 1 = ClaimTypeA_ID
Field 2 = ClaimTypeB_ID
Field 3 = ClaimTypeC_ID
Field 4 = ClaimTypeD_ID
Field 5 = ClaimTypeE_ID
Field 6 = ClaimTypeF_ID
The six field relate to the 6 different tables ID.
If I do this how do I store the data? put 0's in each of the claim types that are not used???
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I am using SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2012. I have a very simple SSIS package with a Data Flow task that exports from an OLE DB Source to a tab-delimited unicode Flat File Destination and a Bulk Insert task that loads from the file. Both the Flat File Destination and Bulk Import are using the same code page. The Bulk Insert task is using the wide char format to read from the file. The process works fine with nvarchar and int columns, but when I add a unique identifier column it fails with "type mismatch or invalid character for the specified code page".
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I am writing a portion of an app that is of intensely high online eCommerce usage. I have a question about identity columns and locking or not.
What I am doing is, I have two tables (normalized), one is OrderDemographics(firstname,lastname,ccum,etc) the other is OrderItems. I have the primary key of OrderDemographics as a column called 'ID' (an Identity Integer that is incrementing). In the OrderItems table, the 'OrderID' column is a foreign key to the OrderDemographics Primary Key column 'ID'.
What I have previously done is to insert the demographics into OrderDemographics, then do a 'select top 1 ID from OrderDemographics order by ID DESC' to get that last ID, since you can't tell what it is until you add another row....
The problem is, there's up to 20,000 users/sessions at once and there is a possiblity that in the fraction of a second it takes to select back that ID integer and use it for the initial OrderItems row, some other user might have clicked 'order' a fraction of a second after the first user and created another row in OrderDemographics, thus incrementing the ID column and throwing all the items that Customer #1 orders into Customer #2's order....
How do I lock a SQL table or lock the Application in .NET to handle this problem and keep it from occurring?
Thanks, appreciate it.
We just upgraded from SQL Server 2000 to 2005. In the past, when I ran the import/export wizard to copy multiple tables from one database to another with SQL Server 2000, I had no problem. Now when I used the import/export wizard to copy multiple tables with SQL Server 2005, I kept getting an error. For example, when copied three tables, the first table might be copied fine and I got an error with the second table and the whole thing stop. Sometimes I could copy two tables. However, when I ran the import/export wizard to copy each table one at a time, it worked.
The error that I got was "Cannot insert duplicate key in object..." I selected the options to "Delete rows in existing destination tables", and "Enable identity insert". What am I doing wrong?

I downloaded the AdventureWorks OLTP Schema and am trying to use some of the design concepts that are used in this example but I don€™t quite understand some things.
First there is a column named rowguid, at the moment I assume that this is a GUID. If this is wrong most likely my next question will make no sense.
Second if that is indeed a guid all the tables have another id; example would be Employee table would have employeeid and rowguid, why do this? My best guess is that you would use the guid to easily insert (linked/sync) data into multiple tables without needing to retrieve the id from the table that was first input into. My scenario would be inserting an employee; to insert an employee you need to create a row in the employee, contact and address tables and for ease you would use the guid to link these rows. But if this is the case wouldn€™t there be sync issues that would arise?
If my guess is totally off please correct me also if anyone can direct me to some good resources that cover database design.
The schema can be downloaded at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0F6E0BCF-A1B5-4760-8D79-67970F93D5FF&displaylang=en#filelist

Hi there,
I am currently seaching a db for all tables that have the same column name, for example, 'qdate'. Can anyone let me know how I can write a script that will search a db for all tables with this column name 'qdate'?
Thanks for your help!!!!!!

I was studying the Adventure Works database because I read it contains good examples of best practices.
It has an ID column for each table that is auto-incrementing Primary Key. There is also a row guid which seems redundant since the ID PKs are identity columns that increment automatically and should be unique in a given table.
What is the purpose of the row guid being used in conjunction with the ID which should be unique in a given table?
Dear All,
i dont know the exact reson why, but i'm guessing the reason for each table had a new guid column is because of transactional replication with update subscribers. actually i dont need this.
can i change this to transactional replication? or i need to drop the column in each table? please guide me

I'm not a full-time DBA, so excuse my style of expressing my question.I have a database which has 2 tables in SQL 2005. Both these tables have similar column names, EXCEPT for new extra columns in FY2007_DATA. I can visually see the difference in columns in Database Diagrams. My goal is to :- I want to compare FY2007 tbl column names to FY2006 column names and display only those columns as results that do not match.Tbl 1 :- FY2006_DATA Tbl 2:-
FY2007_DATA
With online reading and help I have managed to get this script to do exactly opposite of what i want. Below is the query
/* This query compares the column names from two tables and displays the ones that have an exact match. It does not care for case-sensitiveness */
Select a.Table_Name, a.Column_Name, (b.Table_Name), (b.column_name)
From [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS a
Join [2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS b on a.Column_Name = b.Column_Name
Where a.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2006_DATA'
And b.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA'
AND a.Column_Name IN
(Select Column_Name = LEFT(c.column_name, 20) FROM
[H1B_2006-2011].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns AS c WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'FY2007_DATA' )
When I change "AND a.Column_Name IN.." to "AND a.Column_Name NOT IN.." so that the results will (should) display the extra columns in FY2007, in fact I do not see any results, but query executes perfect.
How can I achieve my goal.?
Thank you
