I am writing a sql table, which is used to record a webpage's clicked number at different times.
The table structure is sth like:
click_number_1, time_1, click_number_2, time_2, ... ..., click_number_3000, time_3000
Cos there are too many columns, I feel it's impossible to use CREATE TABLE to add them by hand. I wonder if sql has statements like "for" statement in c++ to add those columns in a looping way.
Thanks!
Hi there,
I am
currently planning an ASP.NET and MS SQL project to distribute customer codes
to my customers. All the codes will be stored in the database, and then when a
customer registers, the next available code is linked to their account. Does
this sound like a feasible solution? The number of codes (ie. rows) could be
anywhere from 3,000 to 100,000 – but will only contain a couple of fields.
Also, it is
a separate company that is producing the codes (we’re offering them as an
incentive) and I was wondering the best way for them to get the codes to me, so
I can easily import them into MS SQL? CSV / Excel ??
This is the
main problem I need help with.
Thank you
all for your continued support, and all the work you kind guys do here!

I can't seem to get SQL Server to run on my 64 bit box running Windows XP Pro 64-bit. Is there a fix for this? I really need SQL Server.

im sure there must be function for this but i cantfind it anywhere
essentially i want to do a Large insert on a table around 3000 records
which links to a table using 3000+ non sequential IDS
the content will be the same but bar the ids
roughly along the lines of
Code Snippet
insert into comment
values
('Some comment',date,commentypeid, non sequential List of IDs)
i could do this fairly simply in c# using a List<int>
Code Snippet
foreach (int ID in IDS)
{
insert into comment
values
('Some comment',datetime.now,1234, ID)
}
surely there is a a function
Thanks in advance

Hi All,
We are developing a system which will have to support more than 3000
subscribers. We will have to support both Transactional replication
and Merge replication.
I checked the following document about SQL 2005 replication <http://
www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/mergrepl.mspx>. The
document does not clearly specify what is the maximum number of
subscribers supported without a significant performance degradation.
The questions i have are:
1. Given the fact that there will be more than 3000 subscribers, there
will be more than 500-1000 subscribers trying to replicate at the same
time. Will be there be a performance degradtion in such a scenario
2. Has anyone used SQL Server 2005 in a scenario involving more than
3000 subscribers?
3. Will it be better if we develop our own system to perform
replication activity instead of relying on SQL Server 2005?

So I have been trying to get mySQL query to work for a large database that I have. I have (lets say) two tables Table_One and Table_Two. Table_One has three columns: Type, Animal and TestID and Table_Two has 2 columns Test_Name and Test_ID. Example with values is below:
**TABLE_ONE**
Type Animal TestID
-----------------------------------------
Mammal Goat 1
Fish Cod 1
Bird Chicken 1
Reptile Snake 1
Bird Crow 2
Mammal Cow 2
Bird Ostrich 3
**Table_Two**
Test_name TestID
-------------------------
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_2 2
Test_2 2
Test_3 3
In Table_One all types come under one column and the values of all Types (Mammal, Fish, Bird, Reptile) come under another column (Animals). Table_One and Two can be linked by Test_ID
I am trying to create a table such as shown below:
Test_Name Bird Reptile Mammal Fish
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Test_1 Chicken Snake Goat Cod
Test_2 Crow Cow
Test_3 Ostrich
This should be my final table. The approach I am currently using is to make multiple instances of Table_One and using joins to form this final table. So the column Bird, Reptile, Mammal and Fish all come from a different copy of Table_one.
For e.g
Select
Test_Name AS 'Test_Name',
Table_Bird.Animal AS 'Birds',
Table_Mammal.Animal AS 'Mammal',
Table_Reptile.Animal AS 'Reptile,
Table_Fish.Animal AS 'Fish'
From Table_One
[Code] .....
The problem with this query is it only works when all entries for Birds, Mammals, Reptiles and Fish have some value. If one field is empty as for Test_Two or Test_Three, it doesn't return that record. I used Or instead of And in the WHERE clause but that didn't work as well.
I have to copy a large (3000) amount of different tables from a Oracle machine into an
SQLServer machine.
I am able to do this using a (VB) script.
I use now several methods:
1) INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT * FROM SID1..DB.TABLE1 (SID1 is a linked server)
2) INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(SID1,'SELECT * FROM DB.TABLE1')
3) Also used OPENROWSET method (similar to 2)
For small tables this is fine, however for BIG tables (15M Rows/150Cols) the methods above are too slow.
If I compare the same copy action with a simple DTS, the DTS is 3 times faster.
Also, the DTS seems to bulk copy the data directly into the desired database while the
mentioned methods first fill the tempdb, then the transaction log of the desired database and
then finally the desired table (need very much extra space on your filesystem).
The total size of data is about 300GB.
Can anyone supply me with a simple example how to copy data from an Oracle table into a
SQLServer table in script (or SQL) that is as fast as the DTS and not filling my logfiles??
I read the bcp (which I use for import/export files) and bulk insert commands, but
I do not understand how to use them in this question.
Hi,
I have two tables
Table Source
{
category varchar(20),
LastUpdate datetime
}
Table Destination
{
SubjectId varchar(20),
SubjectDate datetime,
category varchar(20),
LastUpdate datetime
}
Please note that the number columns are different in each table.
I wanted to dump the data of Source table to Destination table. I meant to say that the rows of 2 columns in Source table to last 2 rows of Destination table.
And also my oreder of the columns in Destination table will vary. So i need to a way to dynamically insert the data in bulk. but i will know the column names for sure before inserting.
Is there anyway to bulk insert into these columns.
Your quick response will be appreciated

I have a business need to create a report by query data from a MS SQL 2008 database and display the result to the users on a web page. The report initially has 6 columns of data and 2 out of 6 have JSON data so the users request to have those 2 JSON columns parse into 15 additional columns (first JSON column has 8 key/value pairs and the second JSON column has 7 key/value pairs). Here what I have done so far:
I found a table value function (fnSplitJson2) from this link [URL]. Using this function I can parse a column of JSON data into a table. So when I use the function above against the first column (with JSON data) in my query (with CROSS APPLY) I got the right data back the but I got 8 additional rows of each of the row in my table. The reason for this side effect is because the function returned a table of 8 row (8 key/value pairs) for each json string data that it parsed.
1. First question: How do I modify my current query (see below) so that for each row in my table i got back one row with 19 columns.
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B
If updated my query (see below) and call the function twice within the CROSS APPLY clause I got this error: "The multi-part identifier "A.ITEM6" could be be bound.
2. My second question: How to i get around this error?
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*, C.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B, fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM6,NULL) C

I just created a new table with over 100 Columns and I need to populated just the first 2 columns.
The first columns to populate is an identify column that is the primary key. The second column is a foreign_key to an other column and I am trying to populate this columns with all the values from the foreign_key value. This is what I am trying to do.
column1 = ID
column2= P_CLIENT_D
SET IDENTITY_INSERT PIM1 ON
INSERT INTO PIM1 (P_CLIENT_ID)
SELECT
Client.ID
FROMP_Client
So I am trying to insert both an identity values and a value from an other table while leaving the other columns blank. How do I go about doing this.

Hello:
I am running into an issue with RS2k PDF export.
Case: Exporting Report to PDF/Printing/TIFF
Report: Contains 1 table with 19 Columns. 1 column is static, the other 18 are visible at the users descretion. Report when printed/exported to pdf spans 2 pages naturally, 16 on the first page, 3 on the second, and the column widths have been adjusted to provide a perfect page span .
User A elects to hide two of the columns, and show the rest. The report complies and the viewable version is perfect, the excel export is perfect.. the PDF export on the first page causes every fith column, starting with the last column that was hidden to be expanded to take up additional width. On the spanned page, it renders the first column on that page correctly, then there is a white space gap equal to the width of the hidden columns and then the rest of the cells show with the last column expanded to take up the same width that the original 2 columns were going to take up, plus its width.
We have tried several different settings to see if it helps this issue or makes it worse. So far cangrow/canshrink/keep together have made no impact. It is not possible to increase the page size due to limited page size selection availablility for the client. There are far too many combinations of what the user can elect to show or hide to put together different tables to show and hide on the same report to remove this effect.
Any help or suggestion on this issue would be appreciated

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two tables:
Orders, with OrderID as primary key, a code for the client, and a code for the place of delivery/receipant.

Say you have a fact table with a few columns that all reference the same key column in a dimension table, you want to write a view to return the information for those keys?
USE MyTestDB;
GO
SET NOCOUNT ON;
IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.FactTemp' ,'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE dbo.FactTemp;
[Code] ....
I'm using very small data at the moment, and the query plan and statistics don't really say which way.
What is the easiest way to determine the number of columns in a table (in a particular database)? Also is there any way to get the column id associated with each column (is there such thing)??
NOTE, this needs to be done with only knowing the name of the table and database and nothing else.
All help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have a table (that i get as a result of pivots and joins in a stored procedure) that has two columns with the same name, (each time the stored procedure is called, different columns will be in this situation). For every row, only one of these columns has a value and the other has NULL.
Does anyone know how to do prevent this situation during the JOIN that creates this table? OR of a way to merge these columns once they are there ?
Thanks !!

HI,
I have a procedure when i need to get the columns of a table and store them in a temp table and process further.
For this i am planning to use sys.columns table as follows:
SELECT OBJECT_name(c.object_id) TableName, c.name ColumnName
FROM sys.columns AS c
Can I use this table in a procedure? Do I need to have any permissions to use this table?
If so, is there any alternative to get the columns of a table so that I wont use sys.columns table.
Please advice on this
Thanks in advance
