TSQL - Using ALTER TABLE - ALTER COLUMN To Modify Column Type / Set Identity Column
Sep 7, 2007Hi guys,
If I have a temporary table called #CTE
With the columns
[Account]
[Name]
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
and I need to change the column type for the columns:
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
to integer, and set the column [RowID Table Level] as Identity (index) starting from 1, incrementing 1 each time.
What will be the right syntax using SQL SERVER 2000?
I am trying to solve the question in the link below:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2093921&SiteID=1
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.
I have tried the code below, but getting syntax error...
ALTER TABLE #CTE
ALTER COLUMN
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),
[RowID Data Level] INT;
I have also tried:
ALTER TABLE #CTE
MODIFY
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),
[RowID Data Level] INT;
Transactional Repln,how To Modify The Width Of A Column Of A Table Which Is Replicated
Aug 3, 2006Hi All,
Is there a way by which we can modify the width of a column of a table which is being replicated without touching the ongoing transactional replication? This is for MSSQL2000 Transactional Replication.
I know (and successfully tried) that we can add a column to a table and that gets propaged to the replicate database and indeed the added column gets reflected there. How to add a column? sp_repaddcolumn or Right Click on the Publication-Properties and it shows a button to Add a Column.
This is what I have tried for modifying the width of a column of a table participating in Transactional Replication from varchar(10) to varchar(100)
MH (source) -> MH1 (Replicate)
The column €ścol1€? had width of varchar(10) and this was altered to varchar(100).
insert into MH..test_mh values(4,'abcdeabcdefff')
select * from MH1..test_mh
exec sp_dropsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2', @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
exec sp_droparticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh'
go
alter table test_mh alter column col2 varchar(100) null OR
MH1..sp_help test_mh
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @source_table = N'test_mh'
go
exec sp_addsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2' , @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
Needless to say, help would be apreciated -

How To Add New Column In Table : Merge Replication
Sep 27, 2007Hi,
I have a table used in Merge Replication. If i add a new column in that table it gives me an error for tables in which either this table is a key or this table has key from other tables "Error validating the default for column 'rowguid'." Also for views i'm getting an error
"View 'dbo.vw_TestCaseBasic': indexes and schema binding will be removed."
If i proceed further i get an error and m not able to add the column.
"It is invalid to drop the default constraint on the rowguid column that is used by merge replication.
The schema change failed during execution of an internal replication procedure. For corrective action, see the other error messages that accompany this error message.
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted."
Is there any solution for the same?

Replication On Table With Image Column.

I tried adding a filter to prevent rows which are NULL from being replicated with the filter "[content] is not null ", but I got the error message:
Cannot save properties for article "xxxxxxxxx"
Aditional Information
An Exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.

Changed Database context to 'xxxxxxxxxx'. (Microsoft SQL server, Error: 341).
Now Im left wondering how to get the replication to work?
Modify ID Column
May 8, 2007I initially modified the column 'ID' from not allowing NULL to allow, and saved it. But now I will like to change it back to 'not allow'. But it gives me the following error message when I try to save my changes:
'Pages' table
- Unable to modify table.
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'ID', table <databasename>.Tmp_Pages'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
Is there a way I can work around this?

Replication :: Add A Not Null Column To Existing Table
Aug 27, 2015We have a requirement to add a not null column to an existing table.
I created the column with null and updated with single quotes, and then converted the column into not null.
Now, I can see in the publisher, it went fine. but in the subscribers, i'm getting the error as, can not insert null value. I then tried to make column as null to resolve the issue, but still it is holding the same error and not proceeding further.
Now I even dropped the column. still same issue. how can I resolve this issue? I'm using sql server 2008 R2 with SP3. replication type is Merge replication.

How To Modify A Column Without Changing Data
Feb 26, 2007Hi,
I was wondering how to modify a column's properties, like its datatype or length.
I know I'm supposed to do something like this:
ALTER TABLE MyTable ALTER COLUMN MyColumn int(20)
My main concern is, what will the database do to all the data in the column, if the column used to be, say nvarchar(50)? Will I lose the data in the column if I change the datatype? And what if I had data in this column that was longer than 20 characters? Will the data now be truncated? What can I do to make sure that nothing happens to the data once I change the datatype?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! =)

How can I do this?

Modify A Column From Nvarchar(50) To A DateTime
Jun 3, 2007Hello,
I have a column that is a currently set as nvarchar(50) and is called DateEmployed.
There are over a hundred rows that contain dates which is in nvarchar format.
This column now needs to be changed to a DateTime datatype. (Don't ask me it was not set
to a dateTime when this was first designed - I wasn't here)
However, I have to change this column to a DateTime without destroying the data.
Is there any easy way to write some script or use studio management to change this.
Currently the data is displayed like this in this column dd/MM/yyyy i.e. 25/8/2007.
The method I am using to try and change this is by going to studio management clicking
modify on the column and changing the datatype from a nvarchar(50) to a DateTime.
I get this following error message:
- Unable to modify table.
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.
The statement has been terminated.
Any suggestions would be most grateful,
Thanks,
Steve

Error Trying To Modify Column With SQL Server Express 2005
Mar 6, 2008I am tearing my hair out with this!!
I have created a DB and up until yesterday I have been using SQL commands to add/remove tables, columns, constraints etc. However today when I attempt to modify the datatype of a column using
alter table Person modify Gender nchar(2)
I get this error
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'modify'.
I can still add colums but get the same error if I try to drop them and I can amend the tables in any way via the Design view so I don't think it's permission related.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Modify Table To Turn OFF Autoincrement ID
Oct 4, 2013I've a table with an ID column, it is an auto increment id column that increases by 1.
ID
--
9724
9725
When my webhost restarts SQL, or some other random act of God, this ID jumps by 1000. Today it leapt from 9725 to 10725, which just doesn't work for me. It results in my having to upload the last known good copy of the database.
My host says they can't change the 1000 row buffer, MS apparently doesn't deem this an issue, and I'm quite frustrated. I used to be able to modify certain settings in SQL since I was using an SQL 2008 database under SQL Management Console but since my host upgraded to 2012, and I'm running XP, there is no forward compatibility and many options are no longer possible (eg. modifying a column, now it has to be done via clicking query and entering a SQL command rather than just right clicking on the column)
So long story made short... is there a way to modify my table (named "places") to turn OFF the autoincrement Id and perform a simple means to figure out the next possible value?
example:
id, place, locstion, gps, v2, v3, v4, comment
================================================
9720, Bill's House, Toronto, 43.4453, y, n, c, This was a good place to eat
9721, Dime a Dozen, Cambridge, 42.4453, n, e, d, A good place to take photos
I'd have to pull the highest value of ID (+1 to it) and then do a standard INSERT into places (id, place, location, gps, v2, v3, v4, comment) values (9722, etc...)I guess my concern is if the autoidentity is turned off, will SQL allow a new value to be entered via INSERT? I'm also using the @@identity to find the last known ID when I want to direct the user to the entry that they've just created and I don't know what that # is just yet. Would the @@identity still work?
ALTER / MODIFY / OverWrite Table?
Apr 10, 2008Hi all I was wondering how to do an ALTER command on a Table but without specifying Column Names but rather attempting to overwrite the Table itself with the new fields specified? For instance if I have Table_1 consisting of the following fields:
IDFirstNameSurname
Then use the following ALTER command:
Code Snippet
ALTER Table Table_1
(
ID Int,
FirstName VarChar(50)
)
This would then drop Surname from the Table and leave only ID and FirstName inside it. Is this possible? I have been searching google but can't seem to find what I am looking for.
Thank for comments + suggestions. Regards, Onam.
Modify Table Structure Via Stored Procedure(?)
Jun 9, 2008Our ERP vendor is helping us migrate from one version of their product to another. In the new version, they have added some columns and changed a few data types in several existing tables.
They sent us a list of the modifications that were necessary, which we did (painstakingly) by hand. But, for other reasons the update failed and we have to start anew.
This got me thinking: is there any way to do this kind of update via a script/stored procedure? I don't have their exact changes handy, but it was stuff like the table "inmast" needs a column of varchar(50) called "lotc" added to it, and the "intime" table needs the datatype of columns "Mon" "Tue" "Wed" changed from text to varchar(50), stuff like that.
Is it possible to do stuff like that in a SP?
