Dbo.Table Of A Database In The .SQLEXPRESS Object Explorer: How To Copy The Dbo.Table To The Another Blank Dbo.Table?

Jan 9, 2008

Hi all,

The following dbo.Tables of Northwind.mdf in my .SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server Management Studio Express) are missing:
dbo.Categories
dbo.CustomerCustomerDemo
dbo.CustomerDemographics
dbo.Customers
dbo.Employees
dbo.EmployeeTerritories
dbo.Order Details
dbo.Orders
dbo.Products
dbo.Regions
dbo.Shippers
dbo.Suppliers
dbo.Territories.

But, I have these dbo.Tables in a different Database "xyzDatabase". How can I copy each of these dbo.Tables to the another blank dbo.Table of Northwind Database?

I right clicked on the dbo.Categories and I saw the following thing:
dbo.Categories
New Table...
Modify
Open Table
Script Table as |> CREATYE To |>
DROP To |>
SELECT To |>
INSERT To |> New Query Editor Window
File....
Clipboard
UPDATE To |>
DELETE to |>
From the above observation,I think it is possible to copy the dbo.Table from the one Database to the Northwind Database that needs to be repaired. Please help and advise me how to do this task or tell me where I can find the Microsoft document that gives the details of this X-copy thing.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

P. S. I am using VB 2005 Express to create a project to learn "Calling Stored Procedures with ADO.NET" (see Paul Kimmel's article in http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3438221) that needs the dbo.Tables of Northwind Database and my Northwind Database has been screwed up for quite a while and needs a big repair.

INNER JOIN: Joining Two Different Colums With One Table?

Nov 15, 2004

Hello everyone,

I'm stuck on something here. Any help would be great. This is a relational database question.

I'm trying to inner join two columns of one table with one column of another. The follwoing code doesn't work, but I think you can see what I'm trying to do.



Procedure _Links_List
AS
CREATE TABLE #TempTable
(
LinkId int,
LinkCategory varchar(50),
LinkStatus varchar(50),
LinkName varchar(50)
)
INSERT INTO #TempTable
(
LinkId,
LinkCategory,
LinkStatus,
LinkName
)
SELECT
LinkId,
_SubCategories.SubCategoryName,
_SubCategories.SubCategoryName,
LinkName
FROM
_Links
INNER JOIN
_SubCategories ON _Links.CategoryId = _SubCategories.SubCategoryId
INNER JOIN
_SubCategories ON _Links.StatusId = _SubCategories.SubCategoryId
SELECT
LinkId,
LinkCategory,
LinkStatus,
LinkName
FROM
#TempTable



Also, I know how to do this if I had seperate category tables for each category (LinkCategory, LinkStatus). For examlple:



Procedure _Links_List
AS
CREATE TABLE #TempTable
(
LinkId int,
LinkCategory varchar(50),
LinkStatus varchar(50),
LinkName varchar(50)
)
INSERT INTO #TempTable
(
LinkId,
LinkCategory,
LinkStatus,
LinkName
)
SELECT
LinkId,
_Links_Categories.CategoryName,
_Links_StatusCategories.StatusName,
LinkName
FROM
_Links
INNER JOIN
_Links_Categories ON _Links.CategoryId = _Links_Categories.CategoryId
INNER JOIN
_Links_StatusCategories ON _Links.StatusId = _Links_StatusCategories.StatustId
SELECT
LinkId,
LinkCategory,
LinkStatus,
LinkName
FROM
#TempTable


I know the above works but I'm trying to figure out how to have just one category table and one subcategory table for all of my categories of all my tables.

Table_Categories: CategoryId (Primary Key), CategoryName

Table_SubCategories: CategoryId, SubCategoryId (Primary Key), SubCategoryName

So instead of having to create a new table for every category and all the procedures for them for all my tables, I want to be able to just use these two tables.

If anyone knows how I go about this, especially when a table uses two category columns, I Thank you.

Variable Colums In Stacked Table

Dec 14, 2007

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read this.

NOOB question:

In dealing with, say, shirts -- I have a DB that serves as a template for several customers. Each customer may have different ranges of sizes (one may have S,M,L and the other might also have XL,XXL). So the CATALOG table is:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_Catalog](
[StlyeID] [int]
) ON [PRIMARY]
with data:
1
2


the SIZES table (filled in by the customer with all the size ranges they carry) is:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_Sizes](
[SizeID] [int],
[SizeName] [nchar](10)
) ON [PRIMARY]
with data:

1,Small
2,Medium
3,Large
4,Xtra-Large

and the AVAILSIZES table would be:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_AvailSizes](
[StyleID] [int],
[SizeID] [int]
) ON [PRIMARY]

1,1
1,2
1,3
2,1
2,3
2,4

Basically, then, we know that:

style 1 comes in Small, Medium, and Large
style 2 xomes in Small, Large, and Xtra large

WE know that, but getting SQL to tell us that is a major PIA!!

Now,

SELECT
t_Catalog.StyleId, t_AvailSizes.SizeID
FROM
t_Catalog
INNER JOIN t_AvailSizes ON
t_Catalog.StyleId = t_AvailSizes.StyleId

will give me a nice list of each item number with a separate row for each size number.

My questions are:

How do I get the size NAMES?

How would I get all of the sizes into a single row, so that there is a single row for each catalog StyleID (that's all I ever wanted to begin with)?

Is this the right way of doing this?

In reality I have about six columns that can contain multiple and variable items like this, and when trying to even think about resolving it all into a single record my brain tries desparately to crawl out my left ear.

Thanks for any help and information you can provide.

How Can I Copy Data From A Table Containing A Binary Column?

May 14, 2005

I have a table called 'Articles' whose columns are articleId (int), authorName (varchar) and article (binary). The primary key is articleId. I tried using DTS wizard available in Enterprise Manager 2000,  to import the data from this table into a remote database table, but the data copy failed. I am thinking the binary column is causing the DTS data copy to fail.
If someone could tell me what else  I could do to transfer binary data  to remote database(like an example of a data transfer query),  then that would help me greatly.

Copy Selected Column Data From Table To Another During Upgrade Of App

Sep 15, 2004

Hi,
I need to write a script that will be called during the database upgrade of my application. This is part of reorg of the tables. The script has to get data for say 4 columns from table A and insert it into another table B. Table B has identity insert column and remaining 4 columns matching the ones to be copied. The data is dependent on user database, hence number of records needs to be copied might be different. Also the columns can have null values.

I tried using bcp Command as follows..
bcp "select colA,colB,colC,colD from A" queryout "c: empA.dat" -t" " -r"" -c

I'm able to get the dat file, but not the format file. Can anyone tell me how to get it using query file with -c option. Also if there is better option to copy data, kindly let me know.

This is very critical. Appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Ramya.

Copy Table Into Different Database

Apr 19, 2007

Hello, I have a table that I would like to copy into a different database. I'm using SQL Server 2005. The reason I don't just copy the data with "SELECT * FROM..." is because the desired table doesn't exist yet. It has ~50 columns and I'd rather not recreate them all (I didn't design it). Thanks.

Copy Table From One Database To Another

Feb 29, 2008

I want to make an exact copy of a production database table in our development database.
1. Script the production table using Script Table as Create
2. Drop the existing development table
3. Use the Script (see 1. above) to recreate the development table (substituting the proper database name)
4. Insert all records from the production table into the development table (insert into table development_table select * from production_table)

Does this create an exact duplicate including the proper sequencing of identity fields? Meaning if there are deleted records in the production database table, their identity fields would be numbered something like 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 11, etc. I want to make sure that the identity fields are numbered exactly the same in the development table.

If not, how do I do that?
thanks in advance!

Copy Table From .SDF To .SDF Database

May 24, 2007

Hi there,



this maybe a simple question but is it possible to copy a table from one sqlmobile database to another?



here is what i would like to be able to do although i am aware that it is not necessarily the most efficient way

- for various reasons this is how i have to do it:



A copy of a sqlmobile2005 database will sit on an SD Card on a pocket pc - DatabaseA.

A second database - DatabaseB - will then be sent as an attachment via email and pasted onto the sdcard

The information in DatabaseB is an update for DatabaseA.

At least 2 of the tables in DatabaseA need emptying and refilling with the data from matching tables in DatabaseB.



I'm guessing the easy way to to this would be a parameterized insert statement but unfortunately these tables contain approx. 900 records and i fear this would be a long process.



Any helpwith this matter would be much appreciated





Darren.

Copy Table And Data From One Database To Another

Oct 3, 2006

I am working on a migration project.

Doing the standard processing, taking source data in a staging database, where I then create the new target tables, transform the source data into the new target table structure, and load the data.

However, having created the new target tables in my staging database, I cannot accurately migrate these tables into the new database.

An example table.

The following is the script created by SQL Management Studio if I right click and script the table as CREATE.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbPRO_Package]( [PRO_PackageID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [CreatedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [CreatedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [ModifiedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [ModifiedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [GUID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_GUID] DEFAULT (newid()), CONSTRAINT [PK_tbPackage_ID] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [PRO_PackageID] ASC)WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]


Note that the field PRO_PackageID has an identity, and is a primary key.

Also note the constraints on several fields and the default values.


If I try to move this table and data using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, telling it to drop and create the table, and to keep identity, it does not correctly generate the table defintion - it generates the following script

CREATE TABLE [Migration Staging].[dbo].[tbPRO_Package] ([PRO_PackageID] int NOT NULL,[PackageCode] varchar(8) NOT NULL,[LKU_VatRateCode] nchar(10),[CancellationCharge] decimal(18,2),[CancellationMultiplier] decimal(18,2),[CreatedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[CreatedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[ModifiedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[ModifiedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[GUID] uniqueidentifier NOT NULL)

We've lost the identity, the PK,the constraints and the defaults.


If I use the SSIS Transfer SQL Server Objects Task, then the primary key is kept, but the identity is not, nor are the constraints or defaults.

Am I missing something? Is it actually POSSIBLE to accurately move tables between databases?

Copy Table In A Database Without Transaction Logging.

Mar 18, 2008

Hi y'all, I am doing some searching in the archived threads, but I have a need to copy a table in a database to a new table in the same database, but the new table will be just a table with test data. There are several million rows in the table and I want to do the copy without logging the new inserts in the transaction log.

Is there an easy way to do this? I found this in my search efforts so far, but am just wondering if there is an easier/better way to accomplish what I want to do.

BTW, I normally wouldn't care, but the boss is complaining that it is taking too long to do the copy for a different team, so asked if I knew a way to copy data to a new table without logging. I don't, so here I am ;)

Here is what I found so far:Following 3 things need to be done
1) create table as not logged initially
2) set autocommit=off
3) and activate the not logged initially option
Now the inserts happen without the use of transaction logs

How Can I Copy The Content Of MS Access Table In Database SQL Using Visual Studio Basic

Sep 26, 2007

Code Snippet

Hi there,

I'm struggeling for more than a week now with this problem, without a finding the solution.

I have two databases, MS Access and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition

Using a procedure in Visual Studio i would like to copy all the records from one table in MS Access into an existing table in SQL Server (the tables have the same name and the same layout)

I tried to prepare one Dataset to copy from Access into SQL Server but when i run the command 'DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella") nothing happens (not even an exeption has been raised), looking during debug, the DataSet seems filled though...

Please could anyone explain what's wrong and / or is there a more quicker way to copy data from a table to another?


Note i woul have as a final goal to get data from an AS400 database by ODBC, manage it, and put it on SQL Server for a 'data mining' scope (eliminating the use of MS Access, not suited for FE-BE).

the procedure goes like this;


' Create a connection to the MS Access Database
Dim connectionToAccess As New OleDbConnection(DBConnectionAccString)
strsql = "SELECT * FROM [TABELLA]"
connectionToAccess.Open()
Dim DaAccess As New OleDbDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToAccess)

Dim DsAccess As New DataSet("ACCESS")
DaAccess.FillSchema(DsAccess, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaAccess.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")

' Create a connection to the SQL Database
Dim connectionToSQL As New SqlConnection(DBConnectionSQLString)
connectionToSQL.Open()
Dim DaSQL As New SqlDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToSQL)

Dim DsSQL As New DataSet("SQL")
DaSQL.FillSchema(DsSQL, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaSQL.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")

DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")

Note I tried also the following, withou a result;


DsSQL = DsAccess.Copy
DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")

Please is there someone who could respond !!???

Copy Raw Data From A Flat File To A Database Table, BUT Do Not Insert Duplicates

Hi,

I'm new to SQL Server 2005 SSIS. I'm trying to do something very simple, but I cannot figure it out, PLEASE HELP!

I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.

Thank you,
