What is the best way to empty out a table to reset its identity field back to 1?
I was going to do "Generate SQL Script" for all the tables I wanted to reset and then drop and re-create each table. Is there a better way to empty out all of your tables?
I need to load a database with new data, from an existing parallelsystem, but the database schema has changed and I did not make a script to do the changes. Sure wish I had. So, now I would like to copy the data from the existing parallel system into the new SQL database that has the correct schema. I have built the new database from the existing changed database. Now I would like to know if there is an easy way to clear the data out of all the tables, then copy all the data from the old schema into the new schema's tables.Thanks!Vic

hi
I would like to clear all data in a table called ... How do I do that - and before I do it I'd like the data copied to a another table as a backup .... Please guide me .....
Thanks in advance .....
Purpose - relate Server to Software, and Server to App and display it in power view.Current State - I am able to display that Server/Software and Server/App combos separately in power view.  However when I add Server/Software/App it throws the warning as seen below.  This leads me to believe the relationships aren't transitive so to speak.
Supporting Info - v_gs_installedsoftware is the software table. Â It relates to v_r_system which is the server table through resource id. Â The software table can have many rows with the same resource id, however the server table only has unique resourceids (think of it as a server can have many software products installed). Â Table1 is the application table, it relates to the v_r_system table through the resourceid. Â Each server from the server table can have many applications that it actually plays a role in (think of a web server that hosts multiple websites for different business units).
I have created a session in extended events and want to frequently monitor the events that i have filtered .The problem i am facing is i am not able to clear the previous data as we do it in SQL trace. i am able to see all the data that is occupied till now.whenever i start the test i want the current data only to be displayed.The work around is either delete the session and create a new one every-time which i do not want to do .I am able to see the CLEAR DATA FROM TABLE button but it is in Disabled state all the time.

However, I prefer to just have fresh data every time, so I'd like to add a step to delete all the items in the list before inserting the new ones. Is there a way I can configure the SharePoint SSIS destination task to clear all the items before I insert new ones?

This function has to give alowerlimit and higherlimit back when dates are out of Calendar range.But i want to read this from the Calendartable ONCE and store it in aglobal variable somewhere in SQL Server.

Hi....Does anyone know if there is a similar command to SQL2K's DBCC ERRORLOG.
I'm currently writing a preventative maintenance script and want to force archiving of errorlogs. Any help greatly appreciated.
It's been some time since I've written any SQL so I apologize if the answer to my question is obvious.
In pseudo-code here's what I want to do:
delete from table-1 all rows where the table-1.id = table-2.id and table-1.text = ""
Thanks in advance.

I would like to clear the logfile. Could anybody tell me how to do this?
What I would like most would be to run SQL-Server without any log-file (while development). But I suppose that this is not possible.

How should i do that???
When I backup a my transaction log and then run DBCC SQLPERF(logspace) the log shows 12% space used. The backup was run at night long after any transactions had been executed so there should be no active transactions. In SQL 6.5 you could run DBCC CHECKTABLE(syslogs) to clear up the usage inaccuracy is there a similar command in 7.0 to fix the space usage inaccuracy?

Hi all,
I have a large Excel file with one large table which contains data, i've built a SQL Server DataBase and i want to fill it with the data from the excel file.
How can it be done?
Thanks, Michael.
I'm writing a web application that saves data to a Microsoft SQL database. As I build my application, I continually dirty my database with test data and refine my data schema. Is there a tool that can quickly remove all of the data from 4 of my 5 tables? Right now I'm using MS SQL Server Management Studio Express to open each table and manually deleting the rows of data and it's a pain in the ass. Playing around with the Management Express, I was able to generate a create SQL script (I'm afraid to test it though) that looks like it will rebuild my table. The problem is, one of my tables is a list (index?) of types...and I'd need that data saved
ebuilt each time...but I cannot figure out how to tell SQL that the rows in this table needs to be rebuilt (and is not really data per say).How do you guys "clear" or reset your database during development?-=STZ=-
I have an application that allows users to "reserve" a certain time and location for practice sessions. I want them to look at a web form that shows which times are available and then allows them to select an open slot and then submit this form with some personal information. My problem is that as soon as they select an open slot, other users should see that this slot is no longer available. On the other hand, if someone selects an open slot and then takes too long to type in their personal information, I want it somehow to kick them out and re-open this slot back up.
I know that I can create a field called 'status' in my database that gets turn to something like 'pending' as soon as the first user clicks on an open slot, but how would I turn this field back to the 'open' state if the user took too long to enter their data?
Any help would be surely appreciated.
