View 2 Replies View RelatedLast GASP On Insert Row In Table With Identity Field, And Get New Identity Back ?
Jul 9, 2006While I have learned a lot from this thread I am still basically confused about the issues involved.
.I wanted to INSERT a record in a parent table, get the Identity back and use it in a child table. Seems simple.
To my knowledge, mine would be the only process running that would update these tables. I was told that there is no guarantee, because the OLEDB provider could write the second destination row before the first, that the proper parent-child relationship would be generated as expected. It was recommended that I create my own variable in memory to hold the Identity value and use that in my SSIS package.
1. A simple example SSIS .dts example illustrating the approach of using a variable for identity would be helpful.
2. Suppose I actually had two processes updating these tables, running at the same time. Then it seems the "variable" method will also have its problems. Is there a final solution other than locking the tables involved prior to updating them or doing something crazy like using a GUID for the primary key!
3. We have done the type of parent-child inserts I originally described from t-sql for years without any apparent problems. (Maybe we were just lucky.) Is the entire issue simply a t-sql one or does SSIS add a layer of complexity beyond t-sql that needs to be addressed?

Insert Row In Table With Identity Field, And Get New Identity Back
Jun 30, 2006I want to insert a new record into a table with an Identity field and return the new Identify field value back to the data stream (for later insertion as a foreign key in another table).
What is the most direct way to do this in SSIS?
TIA,
barkingdog
P.S. Or should I pass the identity value back in a variable and not make it part of the data stream?

DTS DB2 Dates 0001-01-01
Apr 18, 2006Hi,
I am trying to transfer a table from DB2 to SQLServer 2000 through a DTS package. The DB2 table contains fields with default dates of "0001-01-01". The DTS package errors out whenever it reads this date as "invalid data value". In SQLServer 2000, the date fields are of type ShortDateTime. I have searched the Internet but did not find a workable solution. Please, can anyone help me find a solution?

What Size To Make The Binary Field?
Jul 12, 2006Hi,
I have asked this question on 3 forums now and never get an answer, I don't know what is so hard about this question but I will try it here.
I am using SHA512 in C# to convert a password and its salt to hashed. I need to store the password hash and the salt hash in the database in two fields. I was told to use binary field to store the hash data and that the output of SHA512 would ALWAYS be the same no matter how long the password is.
I modified this hash example to use only SHA512 and to work with byte array instead of plain text.
All I need to know now is what size I need to make my binary field to hold this password that is hashed.
http://www.obviex.com/samples/Code.aspx?Source=HashCS&Title=Hashing%20Data&Lang=C%23
Say I have a password which is 30 characters max, and a salt which is 16 characters max. The password and the hash are stored in seperate fields in the same table. They are both hashed using SHA512 and are both being stored as byte arrays in C#, what size to I need to make the binary data type in order to hold the password, and to hold the salt.
Thanks!

View 2 Replies View RelatedBcp With IDENTITY Field
Apr 2, 2001If my table has an IDENTITY field, say, the table schema is:
CREATE TABLE BBB(
id int NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1),
name varchar(20),
job varchar(40))
My data file, which does not carry the IDENTITY field
and its field terminator. The data file looks like this:
debbie cao,programmer
John Doe,engineer
Mary Smith,consultant
I tried to use a format file to bulk copy data from the
data file to the table. Never had any luck.
On the other hand, if I put a comma before the name field,
say, the data file looks like the following:
,debbie cao,programmer
,John Doe,engineer
,Mary Smith,consultant
then, bcp works fine.
But, my data file is automatically generated. It does not
suppose to have the leading comma. Without the leading comma,
I have no idea how may I make bcp work. The SQLBOL says it
can be done. Does anybody have an example to show me?
Please help, thanks!

Jul 12, 1999Dear Fellow Administrators,
We are experiencing an identity problem on a table with 3.7 millions rows of data in the table. The identity field is not auto numbering any more and are wondering if anyone has a suggestion on how to get the auto number field working again without doing a bcp and restoring the table back to the database from bcp. Any suggestions?
Thanks in Advance,

Identity Field
Jul 9, 1998Greetings !
Having an unusual problem - have created several (20) tables in a database.
All of these tables have an identity field in them (defined as FIELDNAME int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL ). In most of the tables this works as expected, but in 2, so far, when I do the first load (an insert based on a different database) the identity fields are all zero.
Have recreated the tables, changed the field name and location, etc.
Anyone have any clues ?
TIA

Mar 8, 2004Folks
I am inserting some values into a table with the following stmt
Insert into table(number,name) values ('12','name')
In the table I have one more identity column ID. I know that I cannot insert a value in that column and the value is automatically increased once I insert a record. After this insert statment, I need to get the value
of the ID (the most recent one) in the next select statement.
ie Select @@identity from table (any condition????)
How do I get the most recent ID value? Actually I m inserting the records in a loop and the ID is increased for every insert.
Thanks for the help,

Jun 29, 2007Hello...
New to SQL and have the following situation....
Example of table (currently)
PayID (Primary Key) PaymentNumber (Identity Field)
John 1
Tim 2
Chris 3
John (same as John above) 4
Jack 5
Steve 6
Would like to see it work this way
PayID (Primary Key) PaymentNumber (Identity Field)
John 1
John (same as John above) 2
Tim 1
Chris 1
Jack 1
Steve 1
Can the identity column be setup to start the counter over depending on value of PayeeID...If another Jack was added then the Payment Number would be 2 for Jack since there is already a record with value 1....
Hope this makes sense...
Thanks
Identity Field Fix
Mar 14, 2007I inherited a system with a SQL 2000 DB. We discovered an identity field named barcode with some values that are incorrect. About 1000 of the records contain a barcode field with 13 digits, not forteen as required. This field is a standalone field only used on an ID card. I would like to select those 1000 records and update the barcode field to 14 digits. Is there an easy way to do this? Thx
