Hi
I want to enter rows into a table having more number of columns
For example : I have one employee table having columns (name ,address,salary etc )
then, how can i enter 100 employees data at a time ?
Suppose i am having my data in .txt file (or ) in .xls
( SQL Server 2005)
Hi
I have a dataset with 2 columns, a rownumber and a servername - eg
rownumber servername
1 server1
2 server2
....
15 server15
I want to display the servernames in a report so that you get 3 columns - eg
server1 | server2 | server3
server4 | server5 | server6
...
server13 | server14 | server15
I have tried using multiple tables and lists and filtering the data on each one but this then makes formating very hard - i either end up with a huge gap between columns or the columns overlap
I have also tried using a matrix control but cant find a way to do this.
Does anybody know an easy way to do this? The data comes from sql 2005 so i can use a pivot clause on the dataset if somebody knows a way to do it this way. The reporting service is also RS2005
Thanks

Hi,
I am currently designing a SSIS package to integrate data into a data warehouse fact table. This fact table has about 70 columns among which 17 are foreign keys for dimension tables.
To insert data in that table, I have to make several transformations and lookups. Given the fact that the lookups I have to make are a little complicated, I have about 70 tasks in my Data Flow.
I know it's a lot, but I can't find a way to make it simpler. It seems I really need all these tasks.
Now, the problem is that every new action I try to make on the package takes a lot of time. At design time, everything is very slow. My processor is eavily loaded each time I change a single setting in one of the tasks, and executing the package in debug mode takes for ages. If I take a look at the size of my package file on disk, it's more than 3MB.
Hence my question : Are there any limitations in terms of number of columns or number of tasks that can be processed within a Data Flow ?
If not, then do you have any idea why it's so slow ?
Thanks in advance for any answer.
Hi,
I need to count and display the number of records which have GradeTitle="SHO". I'm only starting to use BI development studio and all attempts at using the built in aggregate functions have failed.
Also, the report I wish to create has a fixed number of columns and a fixed number of rows as the info being displayed is really only counting values in the DB. I tried using Table but multiple rows were created.
I'd appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction, as searching this forum turned out to be pretty fruitless for me.
Thanks in advance,
John
Using the following tables and data---
CREATE TABLE tblRiskReviewHistory(RiskReviewID int, RiskReviewHistoryID int, Name nvarchar(20), Description nvarchar(50), Date date)
INSERT tblRiskReviewHistory(RiskReviewID, RiskReviewHistoryID, Name, Description, Date)
VALUES(1,1,'Customer A','Profile Assessment','01/01/2015'),
(1,2,'Customer B','Profile Assessment','02/20/2015')
[Code] ...
And currently outputs;
Name Description Date Question Answer
Customer A Profile Assessment 01/01/2015
How complex is the structure?
Customer A
Profile Assessment
01/01/2015
The total value of assets?
Less than GBP 1 million
Customer A
Profile Assessment
01/01/2015
The volume of transactions undertaken?
Low (-1 pmth)
[Code] ....
However, I would like it to output;
Name
Description
Date
How complex is the structure?
The total value of assets?
The volume of transactions undertaken?
How was the client introduced?
Where does the Customer reside?
[Code] ....
The number of questions are unknown for each RiskReviewID and they can be added to in the future.
I am designing wepage using Asp.net with Sql server as database. I have used Multiline textbox in which user has to enter their family detail. Like number of brother and sister family status, source of Earning for family.
But User do not have to enter his/her phone/contact number. For that I restricted the user to enter any nuberic digit through asp.net Regex. But User is too smart now they are entering his/her contact number in words.
Suppose somebody's Contact number is 533445928 as they can not enter numberic digit because of asp.net regex which allows the user to enter only alphabets. Now they are entering their contact number in words like five three three four four nine two eight seven. I would like to restrict the user to enter contact detail in words also.
I have a single table that consist of 4 columns. Entity, ParamName, ParamsValue and ParamiValue. This table stores normalized Late Fee related parameters for apartments. The Entity field contains a code that identifies the apartment complex. The ParamName in a textual field that contains the name of the parameter that the other 2 fields define the value for; ParamsValue and ParamiValue. If the Late Fee parameter (as named in ParamName is something numerical then the value for that parameter can be found in ParamiValue else its in ParamsValue.
I don't know if 'Pivot' is the correct term to use for describing what I am trying to do because I've looked at the Pivot examples and I don't see how that will work for this. Using the Table and data as provided below, how would I construct a query so that I get 1 row per Entity in which the columns are the ParamsValue or ParamiValue for the ParamName listed in the column header (for the query)?
Below is the DDL to create the table and populate it.
USE [DBA_UTIL]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PARAMEXAMPLE](
[Entity] [varchar](16) NULL,
[Code]....
can you please explian this chart:
The operand expressions are denoted as expression e1, with precision p1 and scale s1, and expression e2, with precision p2 and scale s2. The precision and scale for any expression that is not decimal is the precision and scale defined for the data type of the expression.
Operation
Result precision
Result scale *
e1 + e2
max(s1, s2) + max(p1-s1, p2-s2) + 1
max(s1, s2)
e1 - e2
max(s1, s2) + max(p1-s1, p2-s2) + 1
max(s1, s2)
e1 * e2
p1 + p2 + 1
s1 + s2
e1 / e2
p1 - s1 + s2 + max(6, s1 + p2 + 1)
max(6, s1 + p2 + 1)
e1 { UNION | EXCEPT | INTERSECT } e2
max(s1, s2) + max(p1-s1, p2-s2)
max(s1, s2)
* The result precision and scale have an absolute maximum of 38. When a result precision is greater than 38, the corresponding scale is reduced to prevent the integral part of a result from being truncated.
e1 = numeric(20,8)
e2 = numeric(20,8)
e1/e2
is this correct
max(6,s1 + p2 + 1)
8 + 20 + 1= 29 since under 38 use 29 scale
scale would be max(6,29) = 29 correct???????
p1 - s1 + s2 + max(6, s1 + p2 + 1)
20 - 8 + 8 + 29 = 49 does that mean it truncate the least sugificant digits by 29 - 11 = 18 so the effective result should be numeric(38,18) or ##,###,###,###,###,###,###.000000000000000000 this does not seem to be what you get can some explain also we have seen that if you enter a number in the trillions such 9,999,999,999,999 neither .net or sql management studio cannot display the value?????
How can I determine the number of columns in a table?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHI!
1.select count(*) from sales
2.select rows from sysindexes where id=object_id('sales') and indid<2
both queries return number of rows.
can anyone tell me which one is better?
Hi,
I have a denormalized table (done so with reason) with around 40 columns. I would never have to retrieve data for all of those columns together.
I haven't done any performance measurements yet but just wondering if anyone has ready answer to this: Will there be a performance degradation if I retrieve data from a table with many columns, even if not all columns are referred in the query? (for making it simple, lets assume that all or varchar type of columns, I just want to find out if performance degrades if there are too many columns in table)
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep
We are looking at developing a new app with a SQL Server db. As such, we're all newbies.
What is the maximum number of columns I can put in a SQL Server table?
Thanks in advance.

I have a database hosted by GoDaddy. Recently they made some changes to the interface and upgraded to SQL Server 2008. One or the other has made it impossible to access my data in one table.
The table is quite large in terms of the numbers of elements. Each row describes a dog and all the elements are components of the description. There are (I would guess) more than 50 elements all together.
When I try to search the database, the query form goes beyond the top and bottom of the page. I can scroll the database but the search tool (which lies atop the data) does not scroll. The result is that I can't activate the search.
I've tried about 10 machines. All with IE6 display this fault. Machines with IE7 do not. I've tried various screen resolutions on the machines with IE6. That doesn't help.
I've checked other tables in the database. No problem.
In short, there's nothing I can do. I can't edit my data and GoDaddy says, "Tough."
Is there a limit on the number of columns (elements) in a table in SQL Server 2008?

I am creating a report that uses the Matrix control. I need to display a fixed number of columns (5). In my query, I am returning the top 5 rows of data. However, in some cases there are less than 5 rows of data returned from the dataset. Is there a way to force the number of columns displayed in the matrix control and to populate with some text (such as "n/a") if no data is available?
Thanks!

Hi,
What catalog table has the number of rows of a table ?
Is there a limit of how many rows a table can have in SQL compact Edition? I didn't find anything in the documentation, but I get regularly a funny error message "Expression evaluation caused an overflow. [ Name of function (if known) = ]" when I try to create record number 32768 (is equal to 2 to the power of 15).
Where is this limit documented ?

Hi
I have a table (Sql server 2000) which has 14 cost columns for each record, and now due to a new requirement, I have 2 taxes which needs to be applied on two more fields called Share1 and share 2
e.g
Sales tax = 10%
Use Tax = 10%
Share1 = 60%
Share2 = 40%
So Sales tax Amt (A) = Cost1 * Share1 * Sales Tax
So Use tax Amt (B) = cost1 * share2 * Use tax
same calculation for all the costs and then total cost with Sales tax = Cost 1 + A , Cost 2 + A and so on..
and total cost with Use tax = Cost1 +B, Cost 2 +B etc.
So there are around 14 new fields required to save Sales Tax amt for each cost, another 14 new fields to store Cost with Sales Tax, Cost with Use tax. So that increases the table size.
Some of these fields might be used for making reports.
I was wondering which is a better approach out of the below 3:
1) To calculate these fields dynamically while displaying them on the User interface and not save in DB (while making reports, again calculate these fields dynamically and show), or
2) Add new formula field columns in database table to save each field, which would make the table size bigger, but reporting becomes easier.
3) Add only those columns in database on which reports needs to be made, calculate rest of the fields dynamically on screen.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

i need SP that receive 2 integers ,@NUM_ROWS and @PAGE_NUMBER,
and return the rows in that page.
for example:
SP(4,2) will return 4 rows in page number 2 .
So if i have table with 9 rows i will get rows 5-8,
the first page is rows 1-4 the second page is 5-8 and the 3 page is row 9.
i have to assume that rows can be deleted form that table.
thanks
I have a table with PO#,Days_to_travel, and Days_warehouse fields. I take the distinct Days_in_warehouse values in the table and insert them into a temp table. I want a script that will insert all of the values in the Days_in_warehouse field from the temp table into the Days_in_warehouse_batch row in table 1 by PO# duplicating the PO records until all of the POs have a record per distinct value.
Example:
Temp table: (Contains only one field with all distinct values in table 1)
Days_in_warehouse
20
30
40
Table 1 :
PO# Days_to_travel Days_in_warehouse Days_in_warehouse_batch
1 10 20
2 5 30
3 7 40
Updated Table 1:
PO# Days_to_travel Days_in_warehouse Days_in_warehouse_batch
1 10 20 20
1 10 20 30
1 10 20 40
2 5 30 20
2 5 30 30
2 5 30 40
3 7 40 20
3 7 40 30
3 7 40 40
how can I update Table 1 to get desired results?
