I have a MS-SQL 2005 database that is in a one-to-many relationship that is like this:
Table: Company
CompanyID, company name, address, city, etc.
Table Service States:
CompanyID, StateID
Table: States
CompanyID, StateID, State
The result is that you can have multiple states that are serviced assigned to any particular company.
Then in my ASP, I have a form for adding new companies to the database. On this form I have text boxes for Company name, Address, etc. Then for adding the states that are serviced, since you can have multiple states that serviced I decided to put in a Grid. This works fine if I'm editing the Company since the CompanyID already exists, but when I'm adding a new company, I can't INSERT INTO the Table Service States, since I don't know what the CompanyID is yet.
What would be the best way to handle this situation? I could probably put in a a ListBox with a Dropdown, then a little button with an add, add the items to the Listbox, then do an Insert on the Table Company, grab the companyID, then insert the items from the combobox.
I'm wonder if anyone has any better suggestions or ideas to handle this.
Thanks,
marly
Hello I have a problem with setting relations properly when inserting data using adonet. Already have searched for a solutions, still not finding a mistake... Here's the sql management studio diagram :
and that causes (at line 67):"The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK_Question_SurveyTemplate". The conflict occurred in database "ankietyzacja", table "dbo.SurveyTemplate", column 'id'. The statement has been terminated. at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.UpdatedRowStatusErrors(RowUpdatedEventArgs rowUpdatedEvent, BatchCommandInfo[] batchCommands, Int32 commandCount) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.UpdatedRowStatus(RowUpdatedEventArgs rowUpdatedEvent, BatchCommandInfo[] batchCommands, Int32 commandCount) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Update(DataRow[] dataRows, DataTableMapping tableMapping) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.UpdateFromDataTable(DataTable dataTable, DataTableMapping tableMapping) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Update(DataSet dataSet, String srcTable) at AnkietyzacjaWebService.Service1.createSurveyTemplate(Object[] o) in J:\PL\PAI\AnkietyzacjaWebService\AnkietyzacjaWebServicece\Service1.asmx.cs:line 397"
Could You please tell me what am I missing here ? Thanks a lot.
I have two tables that have a one-to-one relationship. The reason they are two table is that one table has user data, whereas the other table has security information. The security information will be in a different security zone.
How do I do an insert into the two tables so that I do not get an integrity error?
I am relatively new to MS SQL (not a novice, but hardly a master).
I am working on a content management application for a magazine publisher. It’s written in ASP (VB Script) and being created on Dreamweaver 8 with an MS SQL 2000 database. Now, I’m trying to decide the best and fastest approach to coding a complex INSERT and UPDATE function. My question isn’t as much about the SQL (although that will probably come up after I decide how to do this), but about the procedural steps and approach I shuold be taking to do this.
Reporters will use an online form to enter their story into the system. It collects the usual data: Headline, byline, story content, and the story category (feature, opinion, entertainment, business, sports, etc.). Each story may belong to MULTIPLE categories (feature & business, for example).
So, I’ve created three tables to support this many-to-many realtionship:
Story Category StoryCat (a junction table with the IDs from both the other tables).
The online form has a dropdown menu which pulls the available categories from the Categories table. When the reporter has entered the data I use ASP to performs the insert just as you would expect it to.
The next step needs to be to update the StoryCat table so that it creates a new record with the StoryID of the record it just inserted, along with the CategoryID that was in that record.
------------------
As I said, I’m not sure of the best way to do this.
Should I just pull back the last record inserted and then create a procedure that would insert into the StoryCat table (which is what I’m thinking of doing on the confirmation page), or is there another approach I should take (perhaps some sort of temporary table or stored procedure?).
I need to read a file and write parent/child relationship rows. I cannot seem to fugure out how I can generate keys that I an use for the relationship.
I looked at using a variable, but have no joy - I cannot instantiate the variable and it errors - notsure wy.
I also looked to see if I can write to a DB table that maintains key id, but not sure how to do that.
I alo thought of setting up the parent table key to be auto-increment,but canot see how I can read this so that I can us it in the child row inserts.
This seems like such a simple problem but I am new developer even through I have been on the administration end of things for some time. I will go into more detail about my tables and there relationships below. Anyway, I am trying to create a many-to-many relationship within ms sql server 2005. I have created both of my primary tables and also a junction table per the directions on microsoft's website all per ms's instructions as stated here...
At then end of these instruction it states as a NOTE: The creation of a junction table in a database diagram does not insert data from the related tables into the junction table. For information about inserting data into a table, see How to: Create Insert Results Queries (Visual Database Tools).
and these directions do not go into detail on how to do an insert on a junction table. And I cant find out how to do this anywhere on the internet... I did create a T-SQL INSERT statement in a trigger as listed below but I end up getting an error AS LISTED BELOW....
Here is how I set everything up...
PetitionSet table consists of:
PetitionSetID int auto-increment primary key PetitionSetName varchar(50) no nulls PetitionSetScope varchar(50) no nulls
the Petition table consists of:
PetitionID int auto-increment primary key PetitionSetID int no nulls PetitionName varchar(50) no nulls
the SetToPetitionJunction table consists of: PetitionSetID int PetitionID int
And, there is a composite key made up of both the PetitionSetID and PetitionID fields.
I have created the foreign key relationships with DEFAULT VALUES from the SetToPetitionJunction table to each column's respective corresponding column in each of the tables: PetitionSet and Petition.
The trigger is on the Petition table and it has the following code:
set ANSI_NULLS ON set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON go -- ============================================= -- Author: Name -- Create date: -- Description: -- ============================================= ALTER TRIGGER .[SetToPetitionJunctionTrigger] ON .[dbo].[Petition] AFTER INSERT AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON;
INSERT INTO SetToPetitionJunction (PetitionID, PetitionSetID) SELECT Petition.PetitionID, PetitionSet.PetitionSetID FROM Petition INNER JOIN PetitionSet ON Petition.PetitionSetID = PetitionSet.PetitionSetID
END
I have created an asp.net 2.0 front end to insert values into the PetitionSet table and the Petition Table. And in the detailsview for the Petition table I manually insert the PetitionSetID field to the number that corresponds to an auto-generated number on the primary key of the PetitionSet table. So I am maintaining referential integrity...
The first time it works and inserts one record in the Junction table containing the PetitionSetID from the PetitionSet table and the PetitionID from the petition table.
Then when I try to add in another petition for the same petition set number just like I did the first time and then I get this error...
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_SetToPetitionJunction'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.SetToPetitionJunction'. The statement has been terminated.
I have four tables with relationships as shown. They have a circular relationship and so one of the relationships is forced to be inactive.
  Operation (Commodity, OperationKey)  ==========> Commodity (Commodity)                      /                                                                        /                       |                                                                         |   Advice (OperationKey)      ====== (inactive)=======> Operation Commmodity (Commodity, OperationKey)
However, the userelationship function does not override the active relationship between Operation & Advice and so the measure is limited to Advices directly filtered by the Operation table.
If I delete the relationship between Operation and Advice, then the measure works as expected i.e. Operation indirectly filters Operation Commodity which filters Advice.
I use the following 3 sets of sql code in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to import the csv data/files to 3 dbo.Tables via CREATE TABLE & BUKL INSERT operations:

2 questions to ask: (1) How can I designate the Primary and Foreign Keys to these 3 dbo Tables? Should I do this "designate" thing after the 3 dbo Tables are done or during the "Importing" period? (2) How can I set up the relationships among these 3 dbo Tables?
I have two tables (T1 and T2). In T1 I have a field FT1 that is aprimary key in T2 I have a field FT2 that is a foreign key linked toFT1. These fields have been populated with data. Lets say that in onerow of data I have in T1 under FT1 "my cell" as the data entry,similarly with T2 under FT2 I have 2 rows of data that also have "mycell" as the data entry. What is the best line of action is I wantedto change "my cell" to "my data"?
Currently i am defining a simple relationship between Customers->Orders->Order Details through the Database Diagrams feature in the SQL 2K. Using the Server Explorer, i can see the Database Diagrams, but when i try to "drop" the Database Diagrams into the page, it gives the error message.
I would like to know the procedures to retrieve the database relationships from Database Diagrams and manipulate them through ADO.NET
I prefer to "convert" already defined relationship using SQL Server Database Diagrams into XSD file or probably there is another method to "read" those relationship and manipulate them.
I have a web form with a text field that needs to take in as much as the user decides to type and insert it into an nvarchar(max) field in the database behind. I've tried using the new .write() method in my update statement, but it cuts off the text after a while. Is there a way to insert/update in SQL 2005 this without resorting to Bulk Insert? It bloats the transaction log and turning the logging off requires a call to sp_dboptions (or a straight-up ALTER DATABASE), which I'd like to avoid if I can.
I actually work in an organisation and we have to find a solution about the data consistancy in the database. our partners use to send details to the organisation and inserted directly in the database, so we want to create a new database as a buffer database to insert informations from the partners then make an update to the main database. is there a better solution instead of that?
I am using two database server. Both are sql server.Â
My task is :I want to insert data from server 1 table to server 2 table and update same when modified the existing data from server 1. is it possible to do the integration in single package.
I know to do insert and update seperately by ssis but need to do same with single task.Â
I have two SQL Express database and I want to do two things. One is to transfer a table over to the other database. Two, move the files from one table in one database to another. Please let me know when you get a chance.
I was able to connect to the SQL Database Pension with table clients with table values: ID, State, Name.'Create(connection)Dim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ConnectionString").ConnectionString)'open connectionconn.Open()However, I'm not sure how to insert a new row with an incremental ID number and a new State and Name.Sorry, I'm really new with VWD.
I have two sql servers one is Nt server another one is Nt workstation,i am able to admin from both sides.but i don't know how to insert/update one database table to another database table, pls. give me some ideas for this.
We have different databases on the same server: Whrs001, Whrs002, etc. All databases have the same structure.
Suppose i have a table "location" create table location ( location_id int not null primary key, location_name varchar(50) not null )
I need to inserts data in "location" tables of different databases. But these inserts needs to be across databases. For example from the "Whrs003" database I need to insert data (location_id=123, location_name='markham') in "location" table of "Whrs001" database.
So my thinking is to defined a stored proc which has database name as an argument: create procedure location_insert @a_database_name varchar(100), @a_location_id int, @a_location_name varchar(50) as ...
So for the above example the call will be : exec location_insert 'Whrs001', 123, 'markham'
What would be the actual insert statement in this case? And what things i neeed to take care fo to make sure it always execute successfully?

How can I set a one-to-one relationship using the Management Studio Express and SQL Server 2005 Express tblClient, CleintID (PK) tblProcess, ClientID (FK)
Hello I have need to write a query that I can pass in a bunch of filter criteria, and return 1 result....it's just ALL of the criteria must be matched and a row returned: example: Transaction table: id, reference attribute table: attributeid, attribute transactionAttribute: attributeid, transactionid Example dat Attribute table contains: 1 Red, 2 Blue, 3 Green Transaction table contains: 1 one, 2 two, 3 three transactionAttribute contains: (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (2,3), (3,1)
If I pass in Red, Blue, Green - I need to be returned "one" only If I pass in Red - I need to be returned "three" only If I pass in Red, Green - nothing should be returned as it doesn't EXACTLY match the filter criteria
If anyone's able to help that would be wonderful! Thanks, Paul

Can anyone provided insight on how to create a one-to-one relationship between SQL tables? Every time I try to link two tables that should be one-to-one, the link says one-to-many. How can I specify one-to-one when SQL Server automatically thinks it is a one-to-many? Thanks, Kellie
Hey, I know I'm asking a stupid question but I need to get a clear response please: why using One-to-One relationship instead of meging the 2 tables in only one? thanks.
I created 2 tables with one to one relationship. if I add a record intable A, how does table B record get created? Does SQL do thisautomatically because it is one to one relationship? or do I need tocreate a trigger? if i need a trigger, how do I get the ID of newrecord to create the same ID in table B?thanks for any help.Joe Klein
Hi,Do you guys know what's wrong with a one-to-one relationship?The reason I want to make it like this is that at the very end of the chain,the set of keys is huge. I want to limit the number of columns to be thekey. i.e. the [company] table has 1 column as the key. The [employee]table will have 2 columns as the key.e,g,If I add a [sale] table to the [company]-[employee] relationship, the thirdtablewill have 3 columns as the key -- "company id", "employee id", and "saleid".(e.g.)I have a company with many employees and computers. But instead of classifyall these, I just want to call all these as an entity. A company is anentity. An employee is just another entity. etc.So, instead of a one-to-many:[company]---*[employee]---*[sale]||*[computer]I make it one-to-one.[entity]---*[entity]If I want to know the name and address of the entity "employee", I will havea 1-to-1 table [employee] to look up the information for this employeeentity.[entity]---*[entity]||[company]||[employee]||[computer]||[sale]--[color=blue]> There is no answer.> There has not been an answer.> There will not be an answer.> That IS the answer!> And I am screwed.> Deadline was due yesterday.>> There is no point to life.> THAT IS THE POINT.> And we are screwed.> We will run out of oil soon.[/color]
How do I create a one to one relationship in a SQL2005 Express database? The foreign key needs to be the same as the primary key so it can't just increment to the next number.
Hi. I get this error when i try to create a relationship in a db diagram (sql 2005) "'tblActivedir' table saved successfully 'tblClient' table - Unable to create relationship 'FK_tblClient_tblActivedir1'. Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_tblClient_tblActivedir1' on table 'tblClient' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints. Could not create constraint. See previous errors."
What i have is 2 tables. 1 named client 1 named activedir
In the client table the columns i want to bind with activedirtable are FR1 and DC1 I want to bind them in the ID of the activedir table (both, in different fk relationships) so that they get the id of activedir. Fr1 has an fk relationship with activedir (pk is activedir' id) and DC1 exactly the same in another fk. So i want both columns to comunicate with activedir. If p.e. activedir has 3 elements (a,b,c) when i delete element a then werever FR1 or DC1 have this element(binded to it's id) then the element will also be deleted (id of the element) from both FR1 and DC1 I don't want to set Delete and Update action to none because i want the element changed or deleted from activedir, to do the same on Fr1 or DC1 or both. Any help? Thanks.
I am trying to create a 1:1 relationship, but not primary key to primary key. In table 1 I have a uniqueidentifier as a primary key. In table 2 I have an int as the primary key and a column that takes the uniqueidentifier from table 1. Everytime I drag and drop the relationship line and link table 1 to table 2 it creates a 1:N relationship: ie. tbl1.primarykey links to tbl2.column2. So I'm not linking primary key to primary key however I still want a 1:1 relationship.
