I'm using SQL Server 2000 with MS Management Studio. I have a table that has 400 rows. I have setup the Primary key to increment automatically. How do I setup so that the next record starts at 4001 and up? Right now it starts at 1274, for example. So besides dropping the table and re-creating it, how do reset it so it counts from sequentially from the last row inserted?

I have eight DTS packages. I would like to schedule all of time to run every night. Can I do this in sequence like something similar to scheduling "Job" in SQL Server Agent, when package one finish, immediately execute package two, then package three...and so on.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hi,I want to setup one of the fields in a table so it incrementssequentially(int data type). i.e the first record should be record 1and the second one should be 2 and so on. This field will also be thekey field. I am new to SQL and don't know how to do this.I am using SQL server 2000.Thanks for the help in advance.-S
View 9 Replies View RelatedHey guys,
Was wondering if there was a way to add a new column to a table, and then use some type of INSERT statement to sequentially number the column from 1-end of the table without using an IDENTITY column.
For instance if I wanted to add a sequentially numbered column in a table with 50 rows that already had an IDENTITY column.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
How do i sequentially read the lines of the flat file that have different structures inside on how to parse it and store them in a table? Let's say, I have this excerpt from the file:
HA111Header1234
KLName1
KLName2
HA222Header4567
KLName3
KLName4
Below are the structures:
If Record type = 'HA' then
Length
Recordtype 2
Code 3
Description 10
else if Record type = 'KL' then
Length
Recordtype 2
Name 5
Code 3
The Code in the KL record type is actually the code in the 'HA' line. So to store the KLName1 in the relational table, it's value for the code field is 111. The same goes for KLName4 which has 222 code. So, when a record type 'HA' is encountered, it's like i want to save its value of the code in a variable and use that to populate the code field of the following recordtype 'KL'.
Can this be possible in Integration Services in which we will use the IS objects themselves to loop through the lines instead of creating a script (programming using script task... i think)?

Hello,
I Have a table that needs to have 2 unique number.
detail_id and detail_print_id.
detail_id is already an IDENTITY.
both fields need to be different, because when importing, it imports the same data into a table twice, with only a slight data change (and id is not one of the changes).
So I thought i could do the following:
detail_id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,2),
detail_print_id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(2,2),
--blah blah
that way, the detail_id will always be odd, and the detail_print_id will always be even. however SQL Server 2005 only allows 1 identity per table, and both these fields need to be auto generated when the field is inserted, so as to prevent double data.
is there anyway I can create a int column to auto increment, without the column being an IDENTITY??
also, I would prefer to not have to create a second table with a single column just for this work.
Thanks,
Justin
Hi
I have a SQL Server 2000 instance running on a Windows Server 2003 box with 4 processors. SQL Server is configured to use all 4 processors, and use all available processors for parallelism.
I have created a simple DTS package which has 2 "execute external process" tasks with no precedence constraints between them. There are no connections required or defined for the two tasks (sequential
processing is forced on tasks sharing connections). The DTS package
properties have the "limit the number of tasks to execute in parallel"
set to 4.
However, despite the above configuration, the two steps are never executed in parallel, but always sequentially.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why these tasks are not being executed in parallel?
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
I'm working with SQL Server 2005, and I'm trying to sort the results based on a user selected letter. Say the user selects 'D' to filter his results. I'd like to return the results starting from D followed by E, F, G...Z, A, B, C. What I'm getting is the results for the D entries at the top of the result set, followed by A, B, C, E...Z.
A solution comes to mind that would be very long and db intensive, by querying on 'like 'D', followed by like 'E', followed by like 'F', etc, but I'm sure that there is a much more efficient way to do this. Below is the code that I'm using now.
' where @SortString = 'd' and @Test is a temp Table
BEGIN
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName like @SortString +'%'
Order by CompanyName
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName not like @SortString +'%'
Order by CompanyName
END
Thanks in advance for your help

It's been a long time since I've had to check an index for the highest value, then add 1, to create a new unique key. These past few years, it seems this is usually done for you. But now that I'm working with MS-SQL, I don't see it. Is it there? It's doesn't seem to be inherent in the definition.

Any assistance much appreciated.

Hello!
I is true that SQL-Server use lower values than last integer value (in auto incremet field). Is there option that i could prevent that. So the Server would always put + 1 for the auto increment value.

Hey,
Here is what happened:
Users for a long time have been able to post new topics in our forums. However, a short time ago, the some users began to experience problems. What I have narrowed it down to is that upon inserting into the table, sometimes id value for the topic is the same as an id that is already in the table, so it fails to insert the record (due to a constraint). However, the topic id column is an auto-increment column and should just assign the next number for the id value.
Any ideas?
If delete all the records from a table that has an incremental identity. Is there a TSQL way of reset the first number on an insert back to be 1 again without going to the table taking it off then saving it the putting it back on again?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the following table:

If I have an Insert trigger to set the RIN field to the next available number in the sequence of the RIN column, why does the following work for inserting 1 and only 1 record at a time but fails if doing multiple rows with a single insert?

Does Not Work. Returns 1 for all RIN's
