How To Append Records Of One Table To Another?
Oct 11, 2004
Hi I have a table with the following structure:
Table1
-------
Dept
Filed1
Filed2
Field3
Field4
Field5
I have another table with the following structure
(Basically this table will contain a subset of coloumns of Table1)
Table2
-------
Dept
Field1
Field2
Now using a query I would like see all the records with all coloumns in Table1 plus all the records in Table2 appended
i.e
if Table1 row is
IT F1 F2 F3 F4 F5
and if Table2 row is
IT F11 F22
Sales F12 F23
I would like to see a result set with the following structure
Resultset
IT F1 F2 F3 F4 F5
IT F11 F22 NULL NULL NULL
Sales F12 F23 NULL NULL NULL
Can some body explain me how to do this with a query. I tried using union but it requires identical coloumns on both ends( Ofcourse, we can acheive this by having Field3,Field4 and Field5 as blank columns in Table 2 but I don't wanna do that as my original tables are too huge to handle this).
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sai

I have a stored procedure that appends data from a temp table to a destination table. The procedure is called from an aspx web page. The destination table has an index on certain fields so as to not allow duplicates.
The issue I'm having is if the imported data contains some records that are unique and some that would be duplicate, the procedure stops and no records are appended. How can I have this procedure complete it's run, passing over the duplicates and appending the unique records? Since the data is in a temp table (which gets deleted after each append) should I run some sort of 'find duplicates' query, and delete the duplicates from the temp table first, then append to the destination table?
Thanks in advance.SMc

In Access I have a macro that, each night, takes a table with aprimary key defined in it, and deletes all the rows. Then itimports/appends records from a fixed width text file. In this way,since the table is not deleted and recreated, the primary key is keptintact.What would be the equivalent SQL method for doing this in an automatedway? I've tried letting DTS import the table from Access, but theprimary key is lost. Is there some way to "empty" a table instead ofdropping it, and then append new records so that the table will end uphaving the primary key I want it to have?Thanks.Larry- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -"Forget it, Jake.

What I would LIKE to do is noted in the subject line. What I'm findingis that "edit SQL" appears to only be an option if I am creating atable. If I select "append to" the option to edit SQL shades itself asunavailable.The reason I'd like this is that there is a datum in the flat file thatindicates whether that record should be appended to that table notedabove. There are other ways of dealing with this "problem" but it wouldbe nice to be able to control it using SQL, in the DTS import/exportwizard.If the source of my data is an SQL table, I can generate an SQL queryto specify what fields to import in an append, to check for existingvalues, etc...Is there a way around this? I can reserve a table for data transfers,regularly overwrite it with new data from text file inputs, and use SQLto insert select fields from that transfer table to other databasetables. (From this "transfer" table, data needs to be inserted intofour separate tables in our database).I hope this is clear. If it CAN'T be done this way, it's okay...just alittle ugly with the need to re-create the transfer table.

What would be the steps to create a SSIS job to append records from an ODBC table to a SQL table, adding only the records from the source that do not already exist in the destination?
I have another post on this subject, with a good suggestion for the approach, but I need some more detailed instructions for implementing it:
Have you considered to use a Lookup task in your data flow to check if the row already exists in the destination table and then use the error output (no matches) for inserting only non existing rows? Notice that the error output of the lookup task needs to be set as 'redirect rows' in order to get this behavior

Hi, I have two view (Run1OnlyFailures and Run2OnlyFailures). THey share exact same columes. Run1OnlyFailures has three records and Run2OnlyFailures has 5 records. Is there any way that I could put all 8 (3+5) records into a third view BothRunFailures, which share the same columns defination as Run1OnlyFailures and Run2OnlyFailures?
Thx

I have created a data warehouse that pulls information from an ODBC source into a SQL database. The schema in the destination matches the source, and the packages clear the destination tables, then append all the records from the source. This is simpler than updating, appending new, and deleting on each table to get them in sync since there is no modify timestamp in the source.
There are cases where I just want to append records from the source table that do not already exist in the destination table, without clearing the destination table first.
How can this be done with a SSIS job? Also, how can the job be run from a Windows Forms application?

I have a table of Customers & their data in about 20 Columns.
I have another table that has potential Customers with 3 Columns.
I want to append the records from Table 2 onto Table 1 to the Columns with the same names.
I've thought of using UNION ALL or Select Insert but I'm mainly stuck on the most efficient way to do this.
There is also no related field that can be used to join the data as these Customers in table 2 have no Customer ID yet as they're only potential Customers.
Can I just append the 3 columns from Table 2 to the same 3 columns in table 1?

Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums
Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.
The query:
INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue )
SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue
FROM Colors_Access;
Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.
There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.
I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.
I have tried re-linking the tables.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Brad

All, Using access 2003 frontend and sql server 2008 backend. I have an append query to insert 80000 from one table to an empty table. I get an error:
"Microsoft Office Access set 0 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and didn't add 36000 record(s) to the table due to key violations, 0 record(s) due to lock violations, and 0 record(s) due to validation rule violations."
I know this error normally comes if there are dups in a field that doesnt allow.

Is there a way to do so on the fly in SQL Server 2000? In other words, a field has the latest update date for the table and we wish to use this date as part of the table name. If so, please provide an example.

How to I make it so that a Authenticated User to a website can append a record to a SQL table. I have watched the video on the asp.net website about using database on a web, it shows how to allow a user to change a record in a database, but nothing I have seen so far shows how they can append a record.
What I am trying to do: I am building a website for a ATV club using Visual Studio 2005 and c#. I am setting up users or members on the site (club members will have a user account, while all others will be un-authenticated users. I am setting up a classifieds area where members can post items for sale, items they are looking for, etc.
I am planning to use roles to allow authenticated users access to a webpage located in a restricted directory. There I want to place a XHTML page which would allow the users to post their classified ads for free. I will have another page that will allow everyone to view the ads not just club members. I want to make this as easy to maintain as possible. I don’t plan on having all the postings come through me to be placed on the web, I want it all automated.

Hi,
Im creatting an SSIS project that uses an Data Flow OLE DB Source to read data from an SQL Table and import it into a Destination table using Data Flow OLE DB Destination. but now everytime I run the project it appends all the rows not the new data rows only. How can I make the application so that it appends only the new data from a source table to a destination table. Is there maybe another Data Flow Control that can copy source table to destination and the next time it runs it only copy new rows. or any other way to do this using SSIS.
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a different approach I should take in appending data to a table...
My destination table has about 94+ million records in it, and I have been taking two approaches to getting new files into this table:
1) I do a data pump task in a DTS to import the file to a trans (temp) table, which is truncated every time, and then do an INSERT INTO statement from the temp table to my destination table.
The import to the trans table only takes a few minutes (about 1 - 2 million records per file, but have short record lenghts,) but when I do the INSERT INTO statement, it takes upwards of 6 hrs to append.
2) I have tried doing a bulk insert task, going directly to the destination table (which defeats the purpose of my trans table to check out the data prior, but I feel the data is clean at this point.)
I am running the bulk insert right now, and it's been running for over 3 hours...so I'm going to assume this will take just as long as the INSERT INTO statement does like I did before.
My destination table does not have any indexes in it at all, and I don't need to do any transformations to the data when bringing it into SQL since the data is clean. Also, I have a default value constraint on one of my fields on the destination table.
Plus there are other ppl and applications hitting the server which could impact the overall processing, but nothing out of the ordinary is going on the server today. I know there are only so many ways to get a file into a table...but maybe someone knows a different way I should try this.
Thanks for anyone's suggestions!
Kael.

Hello. I'm having some difficulty trying to output the results of two seperate queries into the same temporary table.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the UNION operator to output the results into a temporary table?
Select * From TableA
UNION
Select * From TableB
<---output result to temporary table here--->
Alternatively, is it possible to output the results of two queries in to the same temporary table without the UNION clause?
The following statement fails on the second SELECT INTO due to the fact that #MyTempTable already exists.
Select * INTO #MyTempTable FROM TableA
Select * INTO #MyTempTable FROM TableB
Thanks in advance.

I'm new to SQL server. I want to add or append a unique set of rows to a destination table from a source table, they are essentially the same table by definition. The source table is updated every hour via DTS, all rows deleted and new set added. Both tables have the same primary key. Approximately 40 unique rows are created each hour and I would think the best approach would be to append the new rows to the destination table. I think an Append query will run into a primary key conflict.
In Access, I did this within VB by checking the max value of the primary key and then running the append for any values greater than that.
In SQL, I'm not sure if this should be done as a stored procedure or if there is an easier approach altogether.

I have a series of .csv files created by a parts system. The .csv filename is in the format partnumber.csv The csv file contains a date column and 6 other fields. Each csv file is about 4000 records and there are approx 7000 .csv files that get re-generated once a week.
I'm using c# SqlBulkCopy object to import the csv file into a temp table. No problem there. It works realy fast.
What I need now is a way to move the data from the temp table to the final table and append the partnumber. I'm thinking it would be easy to pass the partnumber in as a paramerter to a t-sql query but not sure how to write the query itself.
I also want to check if the partnuber/datestamp combination from the temp table already exists in the final table and skip it if it does. So I suppose I ultimately need an update query.
Once I have that query written it's easy to import a .csv, launch the update query, wipe the temp table and repeat with the next .csv file.
Temp Table Layout: DateStamp(datetime), Field1 ... Field6(all real's)
Final Table Layout: PartNumber(varchar), DateStamp(datetime), Field1 ... Field6(all real's)
TIA.

Ok, I'm really new at this, but I am looking for a way to automatically insert new records into tables. I have one primary table with a primary key id that is automatically generated on insert and 3 other tables that have foreign keys pointing to the primary key. Is there a way to automatically create new records in the foreign tables that will have the new id? Would this be a job for a trigger, stored procedure? I admit I haven't studied up on those yet--I am learning things as I need them. Thanks.

I have an existing table I need to add data to. The data is in a text file, and the existing table already has data in it (I don't want to delete this I want to add to it).
I used Microsoft's import utility but this created a seperate table with generic fieldnames (column01, column02, ect). Is there a step in this wizard I missed?

Table1 contains fields Groupid, UserName,Category, Dimension
Table2 contains fields Group, Name,Category, Dimension (Group and Name are not in Table1)
So basically I need to read the records in Table1 using Groupid and each time there is a Groupid then select records from Table2 where Table2.Category in (Select Catergory from Table1)
and Table2.Dimension in (Select Dimension from Table1)
In Table1 There might be 10 Groupid records all of which are different.

I am trying to write a query that will retrieve all students of a particular class and also any rows in HomeworkLogLine if they exist (but return null if there is no row). I thought this should be a relatively simple LEFT join but I've tried every possible combination of joins but it's not working.
SELECT
Student.StudentSurname + ', ' + Student.StudentForename AS Fullname,
HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineTimestamp,
HomeworkLog.HomeworkLogDescription,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineStudentID ORDER BY
[Code] ...
It's only returning two rows (the students where they have a row in the HomeworkLogLine table).

I'm scrubbing the data using different stored procs that i've created and through a web interface that the user can pick which records they wish to create.
If I were to create a new table for clean records, what is the syntax to keep Appending to that table through the data that i'm obtainig via the stored procs that i've created.
Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appriciated in advance

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).

I have a sql server 2008 backend with an Access 2007 frontend database. Each time I export a query I get the following error:
Code:
Microsoft Access was unable to append all the data to the table.
The contents of fields in 0 record(s) were deleted, and 1 record(s) were lost due to key violations.
*If data was deleted, the data you pasted or imported doesn't match the field data types or the FieldSize property in the destination table.
*If records were lost, either the records you pasted contain primary key values that already exist in the destination table, or they violate referential integrity rules for a relationship defined between tables. Do you want to proceed anyway?
I don't know what if anything is actually missing because of the amount of data is more thant 6000 records. It seems everything exported but I would have to comb through the data to be sure.

I have table 'stores' that has 3 columns (storeid, article, doc), I have a second table 'allstores' that has 3 columns(storeid(always 'ALL'), article, doc). The stores table's storeid column will have a stores id, then will have multiple articles, and docs. The 'allstores' table will have 'all' in the store for every article and doc combination. This table is like the master lookup table for all possible article and doc combinations. The 'stores' table will have the actual article and doc per storeid.
What I am wanting to pull is all article, doc combinations that exist in the 'allstores' table, but do not exist in the 'stores' table, per storeid. So if the article/doc combination exists in the 'allstores' table and in the 'stores' table for storeid of 50 does not use that combination, but store 51 does, I want the output of storeid 50, and what combination does not exist for that storeid. I will try this example:
'allstores' 'Stores'
storeid doc article storeid doc article
ALL 0010 001 101 0010 001
ALL 0010 002 101 0010 002
ALL 0011 001 102 0011 002
ALL 0011 002
So I want the query to pull the one from 'allstores' that does not exist in 'stores' which in this case would the 3rd record "ALL 0011 001".
