I need to find out how long my SQL Server has been running and I believe that there is a way of obtaining this info by querying a system table (or executing a procedure).
Does anyone know about this?
Karl
Thank you for taking the time to read this, I need all the advise and help I can get on this ... so please post anything you think would work ... A little confused I am:
Have a database table called "people" with "person name" and "ID" field. My ASP.NET application mainly stores articles in article table. An article's Article text mentions various people's names in different combinations (e.g. John, Smith, John Smith, Smith John, etc)
Is there any way, I could compare the article text stored in article table with people table and get the people from people table along with their ID's who have been mentioned in that article? ... so in an article "i love john smith ... and i think Mr smith has always been helpful", I get John Smith back...
Not too sure being honest, what is the best way of implementing this, looking for the most efficient way, probably using XML? SQL Query or may be ASP.NET's code behind?
Thanks once again for taking the time.
Cheers,
Tyro
I have a sample view with some dates. How would you find the numbers of items open per month. Say between OpenDate and CloseDate I want to find how many were open for January, February,?
Here is a sample table with the data
Code:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestDate](
[ItemTitle] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[ItemAttachAssignDate] [date] NULL,
[ItemDetachConcludeDate] [date] NULL,
[Status] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[FullName] [nvarchar](100) NULL,
[OpenDate] [date] NULL,
[CloseDate] [date] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
Code:
INSERT INTO [TestDate]([ItemAttachAssignDate], [ItemDetachConcludeDate], [Status], [FullName], [OpenDate], [CloseDate])
VALUES('2013-02-18 00:00:00', '2013-02-19 00:00:00', 'Done', 'Jeff Hunter ', '2013-02-18 00:00:00', '2013-02-19 00:00:00');
INSERT INTO [TestDate]([ItemAttachAssignDate], [ItemDetachConcludeDate], [Status], [FullName], [OpenDate], [CloseDate])

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm an experienced SQL Server and .NET developer, but I wanted to expand the way I look at things and see how other developers approach the situation I'm going to outline in this post. I'm going to be engineering a large, new project soon and I want to examine how I approach this and see if there is a better way.
I work in a small development group with two developers (myself and another). We pretty much wear all the design, testing ,and development hats during the course of a system's development. I had a discussion today with the other developer about creation of stored procedures.
I like to create small specific stored procedures for whatever I'm doing. I will usually have at least 4 stored procedures for each table; Insert, Delete, Update, and Select. Frequently I'll have more Select procedures for special cases. I do this for several reason. One I can get Visual Studio to generate the basic procedures for me and utilize them in a typed dataset. Secondly I can keep all my SQL code server side, and in small maintainable chunks. It is also fairly obvious what my stored procedures do from the name. The main drawback is that the list of stored procedures gets huge.
The developer I work with likes to create a single stored procedure for Insert, Update, and Deletes. Based on the passed primary key, the procedure determines what it should do. For example:
Code Snippet
CREATE PROCEDURE udp_users_processing
@key int output,
@name varchar(200),
@status int
AS
IF IsNull(@key,0)=0
BEGIN
INSERT INTO ut_users(key, name, status) VALUES (@key, @name, @status)
SET @key = SCOPE_IDENTITY()
END
ELSE
IF KEY > 0
UPDATE ut_users SET key = @key, name = @name, status = @status
ELSE
BEGIN
DELETE FROM ut_users WHERE key = @key
END
This has the advantage of being compact, but it has issues with VS.NET and designer support. Loss of designer support isn't a huge problem, but it can be handy to have. I'm also not certain how this approach would work when using typed dataset and the table adapter to do updates.
What is YOUR opinion? How would YOU approach this in your situations? Are there other alternatives that might work just as well?
Hi All,I am facing problem in MS SQL Server 2000. It is behaving slow forselect statements. It is even slower than MS ACCESS. For example, if iuse"Select count(*) from tbl;". i get the results after long time ifthere is more than 100k rows. What might be the possible reasons forthis??ThanksHoque

I have SQL 2014. When I try to restore a user database using SSMS GUI, the Restore Database Pop up box never pops up. This happens for any database on this server at any time. Sometimes I get the pop up, some times I dont get.
So I tried to click on Databases on Top and Restore Database, and then select the db that I need to restore from Drop down, then it shows "creating restore plan selecting backups" but it takes forever.
We have full backup and trn log backups every 30 mins. So is it trying to get all these backup files in the background causing this issue? If yes then how to overcome this?
I have the following in my table. As you can see the Geo field is null (which is of type Geography), what I'm trying to do is populate that with an update statement by comparing the latitude and longitude for each row so I can then work out the distance, I've been following this tutorial to workout the distance which is giving me the desired results
[URL] ....
The issue I have is passing in the points i.e latitude and longitude and then updating the Geo field for the row, I currently have 11938 rows in my DB so I need to run this against all of them. I thought I had it I was thinking of update then select from the source but then I realized I need to pass the lat and long in for the points and that's where I got confused
We have a proc that adds some fields to a few tables of ours and normally there are no issues. For one of our client databases this process is taking anywhere from 5-10 minutes to add the fields. This causes an issue where the app will timeout waiting. After plugging around and looking at the proc and trying different items i found it to only be for this one database and ONLY when there is data in the table. If i truncate the table and run the same procedure everything is fine. Tables all have same index on 4 columns and the columns being added are not indexed because of the stupid hoops we have to jump thru to pre-pivot data for our reporting package.

My application doesn't include the .mdf and .ldf files, rather it creates the database the first time the application is run using a script that is included in the build. I want to create the database in the ClickOnce data directory. The problem I'm having is that SQL Server complains when I execute the CREATE DATABASE command as follows:

I have several reports that are looking for a code within a certain set of codes or ranges. The specific list of codes to be including is determined by the end user. Currently my "IN" statement can be a hundred lines, listing several ranges, lists of specific codes, etc. I am constantly getting asked what codes does it include, is this code included, etc. Sometimes they'll give me a printed 10 page list of codes and want me to compare to what I have included in the report. Not ideal in the slightest.
What I'd like to do is have a table or a file of some kind somewhere where the end user can view the codes contained, add new ones, and delete ones they no longer want. Then I'd like to be able to just reference that file in my IN statement. Leaving the responsibility of listing the correct codes on them.
i use a single stored procedure to update many tables in sql server 2014 database, using defalut transaction isolation level we got random performance issues.
maybe it would better to use read uncommitted isolation level?
what's happens ,in the both cases( read committed, uncommitted) if the sp is called at the same time passing the same @key parameter?
this is a sample to show of the real stored procedure works:
CREATE PROCEDURE SP_Test
@Key int,
@Values1 Values1 readonly,
@Values2 Values2 readonly,
@Values3 Values3 readonly

I have a 2GHZ cpu with 1GB of RAM. I occassionally see very slow (long) queries against a local SQL Server 2005 Express (SP2) database. The issue occurs against different SQL Queries, but all queries are rather basic select statements Perfmon shows that the SQL Server counter for the "MEMORY GRANT QUEUE WAIT Avg MS" gets extremely high (25000+ ms). Perfmon also also shows that PAGING is not occuring, and the system is not under unsual stress. The problem is not reproducible with MSDE.
Has anyone seen this issue, or have any recommendations for a next course of action?

Hello!
We just upgraded to SQL Server 2005 from SQL Server 2000. The DB was backed up using Enterprise Manager and restored with SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP. Everything went as expected (no errors, warnings, or any other indicator of problems).
The DB resides in a DB Server (Server1) and the application we are running is a Client/Server system where the AppServer resides on Server2.
During the application's operation all read, create, and delete transactions work fine but no update works. When viewing details in Trace Log I see this message after attempting any update:
Could not find server 'Server1' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers. (7202)
