Excuse my illiteracy in this subject, I just learned about this yesterday, I managed to create a report by using business intelligence report wizard, and when I preview it seems that I can view the fields that I wanted to view.
But in addition to that I also want to add hyperlinks to some of the fields, because I am planning to embed the whole report in a web page. For example if I go on the field that I want to add hyperlink and right click->properties->navigation tab->Jump to url, I thought that I can handle it. Actuall it works fine if I link it to http://www.microsoft.com but let's assum e the name of the field is ID, and you want to link to http://somewebsite/somepage.aspx?id= (id in that cell), how can I achieve this parametric behavior, actually I tried right click cell->properties->navigation tab->Jump to url, and filled url text box http://somewebsite/somepage.aspx?id=&(concatenation operator)=Fields!ID.Value but what happens is instead of evaluating the value of ID field, it takes expression as text as text and that's why it links to totally wrong url. Is there a way to get around this problem.
And can somebody suggest me a detailed tutorial on programmatically using reports in .net web applications using c#.
I have a table with one row for each test a user has taken, with columns for userid, score, and test date. I have a query that gets the highest score and the date of the latest test for each user. Easy. But how can I also get the score achieved on the latest test for each agent?
Thanks, John
(By the way, I've been looking for a good SQL mailing list to ask this question and have been unsuccessful. If there's a better forum than this for this type of question, please let me know).
Is it better to enable Hyper Threading on a DB machine. I am running only SQL 2000 on my machine no other service is running. I have noticed in Task Manager that in peak time when there is some load on DB one Proccesor proccesing goes to 100 % while other reamin idle or maximum go to 20 to 30 %. I want whole peoccesing for database only.
If some one has any tips for improving database performance then please share it.
We have quite a few SQL Servers running on servers with hyper threaded enabled processors. We have always left hyper threading on, even on our very busy servers but i've recently begun to question this due to comments i have received.
All our servers run SQL 2000 SP3a as "support" for hyper threading was added in SP3a
So... What do you think of Hyper Threading any why?
I realize this a Transact SQL forum. If there is another forum more appropriate, please let me know. I want to think about the best way to begin to set up this database with respect to the column that will link these tables together. The info below is what has been given to me as my client's list of values/info she would like to include. Here is my first pass, knowing that the ID columns need to be fixed. Thank you! http://www.hazzsoftwaresolutions.net/db_diag.htm
I am designing a database schema where several tables have one-to-many relationships to records in other tables. One way to implement it is to create a link table for each pair of tables that have a relationship:
identity Table1_ID Table2_ID
1 12 9
2 12 15
3 18 42With the SQL 2005 support for the XML data type, there is the possibility of storing the IDs in an XML column. The XML stored with a record (equivalent to record 12 from the above example) might look like this:
<Links> <Table2_LinkType> <ID>9</ID>
<ID>15</ID> </Table2_LinkType> <Table8_LinkType>
. . .
</Table8_LinkType> </Links>The XML column method has the advantage of not requiring that a separate table be created but does not enforce referential integrity. The link table method has the advantage of allowing constraints to enforce referential integrity but has the disadvantage of requiring the creation of a separate table for each pair of tables having a relationship and joining to an additional table has performance implications. Implementing standard Add, List and Delete operations for the link table method is straightforward. As a test and to familiarize myself with the new XML features, I created Set, List and Delete stored procedures for the XML method. Both methods will work.
In deciding which method to go with are there any other issues I should be considering besides database integrity, complexity and possible performance issues? From the standpoint of best practices and coding standards is one method preferred over the other? Here is some additional information. The data set I will be working with has table sizes numbering in the hundreds of thousands. Any given record will only be linked to at most a half-dozen records in any other table.
I searched on-line for information and I was able to find plenty of good articles discussing how to use the new XML data type in SQL. However, I was not able to find any information on when not to use the XML data type over equivalent joined-table methods.
I have created an Access2003 project (existing data) that links to external data. First I connected to a SQL Server 2000 database. Success. Then I tried to set up a Transact SQL data connection to a legacy MDW-secured Access97 database. (A third-party VB6 application goes against it, and we don't have the source code, so we cannot upgrade it.)
The Transact SQL link tests OK but I cannot select any of the tables or queries from the list presented. However, with the same credentials, I can use these same objects in Excel 2003.
When setting up the link in Access2003, I specify JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider, I enter the MDW file on the All tab, a username and a password on the Connection tab where I browse to the MDB file, and specify Shared Deny None on the Advanced tab. When I test the connection, it tests OK ("Test connection succeeded"). Yet on the "Select the Database and Table/Cube which contains the data you want" dialog, "(Default)" appears in the grayed-out dropdown. Then, beneath that dropdown, there is a grid with Name and Description columns. The grid contains query names but the grid is not enabled. The list of queries is this table is grayed out. Neither of the scrollbars works.
BUT... if I use the SAME username and password in Excel2003, and specify the same MDW, there is no problem working with these same database objects in the legacy Access97 database. WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE WIZARD IN EXCEL THAT ALLOWS IT TO SUCCEED AND THE WIZARD IN ACCESS THAT CAUSES IT TO FAIL HERE? In Excel, the list of available providers says Microsoft Access Driver, not JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
When trying to link to an SQL table in Access 2003, the software appears to be malfunctioning.
The sequence of events is File - Get External Data - Link Tables - Files of Type: ODBC Databases().
The Problem: On two of my computers, the select data source window does not pop up, preventing me from linking to any ODBC data source.
Observations: This function has worked normally in the recent past and works on other computers running Access 2003. One difference between the computers working and non-working computers is Norton Antivirus 2006 (recent upgrade).
Has anyone experienced anything like this? What's going on?
I have a ABC service on a server1 that is dependent on MSSQLSERVER service running on server2. Does anyone know how to setup the service ABC on server1 to have a dependancy on MSSQLSERVER running on server2?
I am trying to query only the Max date dependant on quantity
Create Table dbo.TestParts (Part char(30), Desc1 char(50), Desc2 char(50)); Create Table dbo.TestStructure (Model char(30), Part char(30), EDATE smalldatetime, QtyPer float); GO Insert INTO dbo.TestParts Values('101111','Widget A', 'Batteries Not Included'),
[Code] ....
Looking for a return of:
PART Description EDATE QtyPer 101112 Widget B ..... 2012-12-03 3 101113 Widget C ..... 2012-12-03 5 101114 Widget D ..... 2012-12-01 1
Widget A should not show because the last date the qty was changed to Zero
Closest that I have come..........(which is pulling the part 101111 which should be incorrect)
Select ts.Part, RTRIM(tp.Desc1) + ' ' + RTRIM(tp.Desc2) as Description, ts.EDATE, ts.QtyPer FROM testing.dbo.TestStructure ts Inner Join (Select Part,MAX(EDATE) as Date FROM testing.dbo.TestStructure WHERE QTYPER <> '0'
SELECT INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.ITEM_NO, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.DESCR, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.STATUS_FLG, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.PRICINGUOM, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.PURCHUOM, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.ITEM_CATEGORY, INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.ICINTERNALNOTES, INVENTORY_WHS.QTY_ON_HAND, INVENTORY_WHS.QTY_ON_ORDER, INVENTORY_WHS.QTY_ALLOCATED FROM INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB INNER JOIN INVENTORY_WHS ON INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.ITEM_NO = INVENTORY_WHS.ICWHSPCODE WHERE (INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.ITEM_CATEGORY = 'SS') AND QTY_ALLOCATED, QTY_ON_HAND, Qty_On_ORDER <> 0 ORDER BY INVENTORY_ITEM_TAB.DESCR
But I don't want to select records if all of these fields have a 0 in them - QTY_ALLOCATED and QTY_ON_HAND and QTY_ON_ORDER.
how to do this type of query. If any of those fields doesn't have a 0 then I would want to return it. I just don't want them if all three of those fields have 0.
Suppose I have the following table:col1 col2hammet jonesjlo afflectafflect armandwills snoptarmand hammetjones smithIf someone choses armand, then I'd like to returnamand hammet jones smithThe first selection goes over to the second column, gets that valueand locates it back in column one and returns column 2 and so on.One way of doing it is to set up a separate query for each one andthen construct a new query to get them all.I'm thinking there's a more elegant way to do this. Any suggestionswould be appreciated.-David
I was just analysing the security which can be given to different users to access respective databases. So i tried, on my local server, to deny permission to myself to access Model database. After this i am not able to connect to my local server at all. Error: Permission denied. I am using windows authentication mode.
I have also deleted the local server registration, and re-registered it, but still the condition is same. Do i need to uninstall SQL Server completly to get rid of this prob.? I also registered a new data server, and there every thing is going fine. So now what do i do to get connected to my local server.
I have a report which uses a parameter called "Interval" with possible string values of "Daily", "Weekly", and "Monthly" and I want these values to set the default values for my StartDate and EndDate parameters. However, the default value remains static. And I have tried all of the solutions found in this forum. Any suggestions?
I am using SSRS 2005. And I have tried using an iif statement for StartDate, also tried Property->Custom Code, and also tried using stored procedure to populate Start and End Dates, but none of these provide dynamic parameter setting like I was hoping for.
And I think this should work because I know that if it is not a date that it works correctly. For example if I have one parameter called country and a subsequent one named state, every time I change the country it will let me re-pick the state. But this is not working correctly here.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong or how to fix this?
I am not able to delete a row due to the presence of its parent table. There is no circular relationship and the child has no dependencies when I verify the Delete trigger. Any advice? See error msg below:
Msg 30010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure tD_My_child_table_name, Line 43
Cannot DELETE last My_child_table_name CI because My_parent_table_name exists.
Msg 3609, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.
I'd need to generate multiple recordsets within a MS SQL stored procedure. The thing is these recordsets depend on each previous one (the first one obviously has parameters). How can I make this work? I can't create views with SPs. Thank you very, very much.
I want to execute multiple SQL Server scheduled jobs using OSQL, but I only want to execute a job if the previous job completed. Is this possible? So far I am unable to prevent all jobs from starting before any have completed.
We have an interesting performance issue with a distributed query. When run by a system-administrator account, the remote computer returns the requested row set. It does the same thing for small row counts (<=7) for user accounts. On larger row counts, however, the user account returns the ENTIRE rowset from the remote table, and performs the restrict operation locally. Performance-wise, this results in a difference between 11 seconds and 12 MINUTES. I'm assuming it's some sort of security issue in DTC, but the remote server is on Windows Server 2000, and there's no security button for DTC under Component Services.
Suggestions?
The query in question is: EXEC ("INSERT INTO #XML (vin, ws_xml, lang_id) SELECT slo.vin, br.xml, br.lang_id FROM #SALE_LINEUP_ORDER slo INNER JOIN RemoteServer.mydatabase.dbo.build_record br ON slo.vin = br.vin INNER JOIN #LANGUAGE_IDS li ON br.lang_id = li.lang_id")

and I am desired for the following output but I dont want to use function. Can anybody help me for script for the desired output. I will be much thankful.
Greetings all: I am looking for a way to get detailed information about each created table (regardless of permanancy) in a stored procedure, similar to the information one received from using sp_help on an individual table.
Does anyone know of such an animal?
Thank you, and Happiest of New Years, Jack Cole Magellan Healthcare, Inc.
I wonder if anyone can help me - I am trying to write a little application which recompiles any views dependent on a given view. I have a script which will identify any views containing a given text string, but I now need a way to force SQL Server to refresh its cache info (or recompile) the views. I have to admit that I am unclear on exactly how the caching works; i have tried using sp_recompile, but this does not seem to do the job. Does anyone have any ideas?
Hi,DDL:-- create table #task (taskID int identity(1,1) primary key, taskNamevarchar(25) unique, taskCompleteDate dateTime, taskComplete bitdefault(0));/*Business Rules:a) if taskCompleteDate is NULL (like default) then, taskComplete maynot be set to 1 (attempt to update it to 1 would fail);b) else automatically set taskComplete = 1*/I was thinking using CHECK constraint (mutual constraint if possible),along the following line:CHECK (if taskCompleteDate is null set taskComplete=0 else settaskComplete=1)Hmm, your thought?Thanks.
I have a data mining model that has a binary dependent variable (let's say 'Yes' and 'No'). I noticed that the model is very sensitive to the distribution of the binary dependent variable. I could not come up with an explaination. I know the model is not over/under fits and multicollinearity is not an issue. And I have enough data size to train the model.
I would expect some sensitivity but not to this extend:
Yes % in training data Yes % in the prediction results
with DT with LR with NN
30.0% 6.0% 11.0% 14.0%
35.0% 12.0% 15.0% 24.0%
37.5% 20.0% 23.0% 27.0%
40.0% 28.0% 33.0% 36.0%
50.0% 43.0% 52.0% 61.0%
DT - Decision Trees
LR - Logistic Regression
NN - Neural Networks
And to make things more interesting, although the precision (% of correct 'Yes's ), true positive ratio and false positive ratio is changing; the overall accuracy (and therefore the score in the mining accuracy chart) remains almost same.
If anyone has an idea it would be highly appreciated.
Hi There, Here I have small problem with default and rule. After create rule or default then we will bind that to any table. I bounded that rule to some of tables.If i want see the list of objects dependent on this rule or default how to see.I know sp_depends stored procedure will show the all dependent objetcs but i could not get through that.I found in help it says sp_depends works for all objects in the database like table,view and so on.But default and rule also objects i could not get it.Please let me know on this if you can give this answer as early as possible. I am very thanks to you.Please don't specify SQL-DMO Listboundedcolumns function.....
I have two procedures Sp1 and Sp2. The Sp1 is calling from Sp2. If there come new parameters or removed from the first procedure Sp1 then it will effect the Sp2 and its execution will break if required changes not done. So I want that when any changes making in SP1 then i need alert about the Sp2 changes.
Could anybody tell me how can I find all the database objects that are used in /referenced by/called by/dependent on a given stored procedure? In other words, I am looking for something like a stored procedure or a function that takes as input the name of a stored procedure and outputs all the names of the tables, functions, procedures, cursors and etc. database objects that are used in that procedure. Could you please give me suggestions or possible answers for this?
Hi i am trying to get the following result: CALCULATE THE CURRENT NUMBER OF SHARES on base of number of shares bought and number of shares sold
so the logic is int total if transactiontype is "buy", total = total + amount bought if transactiontype is sell, total = total-amount sold plus must be grouped by share
base data are stored in 1 table as share name transaction type share amount tesco buy 200 tesco sell 50
sounds rather easy does it not? well sql syntax must be very foreign to me as i do not manage it I tried a few options: 1 to write a database function as above and then call it from sproc but i need to use group by share name or id so it calculates for each share and it will not let me to use function in select with group by 2 i tried to use if within sproc but i get complain incorrect syntax (I use MSDE database accessed via Visual) - I think it suppose to be possible but it throws me out with the most simple if or = is there some special syntax? 3 I created 2 views: 1 view: all sold shares, 2nd view: all bought shares and their bought/sold quantities as in select share name, sum(sharequantity) where transaction = sell from table group by share name and the same for purchases then I did union of these 2 views with boughtquantity - soldquantity what worked but it only showed me shares which were sold, if share was never sold it was not shown I guess due to union so I am still stuck!
I am attempting to use a CLR Function to perform an update operation, since a SQL UDF will not allow this within the function. For the POC, I hard-coded the db connection string and setup the assembly to use EXTERNAL_ACCESS. This worked fine and the update operation was running properly via the CLR Function. However, I now want to make the code run in the current db context without plugging in a connection string. So, I've applied "context connection=true" instead of the explicit db string. When I do this, I am receiving the following error:
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'MyTestCLRUDF':
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Invalid use of side-effecting or time-dependent operator in 'UPDATE' within a function.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException:
etc.
I don't understand why simply swapping the connection string would cause this issue. I assume this is somehow related to permissions, and I am missing something. I've tried using each of the three permission levels (external, safe, and unsafe), and no luck.
I am trying to move data from 8 different tables that are dependent on each other through foreign key relationship.
Basically they have millions of rows in each table and they have data for the past 5 years. I want to move data for the past 120 days and move it to 8 new tables in the same database. So I created the new tables along with their relationships. Now I need to move in the order (parent table first).
The child table has 50million rows data to move The intermediate tables have 10 mil 10mil 10mil and 40 mil 50mil and 20 mil rows to move The parent table has 10 mil rows to move
if I choose to move this data through an SSIS package what is the best way? Or is there a better way to move this data faster?
I will be doing this move only once. After that I have maintenance purge jobs that will cleanup data on a daily basis.
Hi all, mister I want create a function but I get this error: Error Invalid use of side-effecting or time-dependent operator in 'EXECUTE STRING' within a function
I think in a function, cannot use temp tables, or calling exec or store procedures.
Which is the best solution for my issue ? develop store procedure ??
Hello There,I'm trying to create a view that has calculations dependent oncalculations, where the problem resides is that each time I make acalculation I must create an intermediate view so I can reference aprevious calculation.for example lets say I have my_table that has columns a & b. now I wanta view that has a & b, c = a + b, and d = c + 1.this is grossly simplified, the calculations I actually use are fairlycomplex and copying / pasting them is out of the question.so what I have is my_view_a which makes column c, and my my_view_finalwhich makes column d (however, in my real application I have 5 of theseviews, a/b/c/d/e/)is there anyway I can consolidate all these views into one? I wasthinking of using a stored procedure with temp tables or somethingalong those lines.I just which I can use the aliases that I create for c in d in onestep.any insight would be greatly appreciated.
