Now thanks to you good folks on here, I have recently found out that when inserting data into table, there is a system table which can be queried with triggers - specifically called "Inserted".
What I am wondering is what are the limitations of what I can do with the data in this table?
I know I can query it from within the trigger, but can I update data specifically in this table before it is inserted?
(ie IF field1 FROM inserted = 'blah' UPDATE inserted SET field2 = 'something')
If so is there anything that I need to look out for? Concerns? Etc?
the notes table contain the note_id and notetext, so example of a row would be: 1 this is the note for the first row 2 this is the note for computer parts
etc..
the po table has item info, description, po_id, and note_id, heres an example:
po_id item desc note_id 1 215-33 computer parts 2
the problem is, is there a way where say i insert the note row into the notes table first and then get the note_id of that, so that i can then insert the row into the po table which includes the note_id from the notes table?
would i have to use two separate inserts or can i use one? i was going to just insert the notes row first, and then use a query using the LIKE() function on the note text to get the note_id, but some notes may be the same as others, so the note_id wouldn't be the correct one :( and i think just getting the last row of the notes table would be bad too incase someone happens to insert a row into that table at the same time
Why does this code tell me that I inserted 2 rows when I really only inserted one? I am using SQL server 2005 Express. I can open up the table and there is only one record in it. Dim InsertSQL As String = "INSERT INTO dbCG_Disposition ( BouleID, UserName, CG_PFLocation ) VALUES ( @BouleID, @UserName, @CG_PFLocation )"Dim Status As Label = lblStatus Dim ConnectionString As String = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("HTALNBulk").ConnectionString
Dim con As New SqlConnection(ConnectionString) Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(InsertSQL, con)
Dim added As Integer = 0 Try con.Open() added = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() Status.Text &= added.ToString() & " records inserted into CG Process Flow Inventory, Located in Boule_Storage." Catch ex As Exception Status.Text &= "Error adding to inventory. " Status.Text &= ex.Message.ToString() Finally con.Close() End Try Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
I really need your help now, and I know I can always count on this group for tough answers to tough questions. OK, here's my dilemma. I have my trigger, which upon a record being inserted into db1.table1, inserts the same record into db2.table2 (SQL 7 db on the same server). What's happening is only a few of the fields are getting over there, but most are ending up NULL or 0. Everything besides the following records are inserting into the other database table properly:
Note: The following fields have their Default Value set to (0) SystemID EventStatusID Coop NewProductFlag TVSupportFlag RadioSupportFlag FSISupportFlag RollbackPricing PleaseContactFlag
Default Value set to (1): KitInformationID

What should I do? Should I use a stored procedure?? I am writing in C#. Can someone please help!!
I am looking for a Sql query to verify the inserted values from one table(in CSV file) with another table(in sql database)
For example: I have below Values column that is present in once CSV file, after my data migration the values get stored in Results table under Message column.
I need to very whether values(1X,1Y) are inserted in Message record "successfully inserted value 1X"
Values (CSV) 1X 1Y
Results Table(SQL) CreatedDate Message 2015-08-04 08:45:29.203 successfully inserted value 1X 2015-08-04 08:44:29.103 TEst pass 2015-08-04 08:43:29.103 successfully inserted value 1X 2015-08-04 08:42:29.203 test point 2015-08-04 08:35:29.203 successfully inserted value 1Y 2015-08-04 08:30:29.203 Test Pass 2015-08-04 08:28:29.203 successfully inserted value 1Y
If all values are inserted:
Output: All values from values table are inserted successfully Total count of values inserted: 2 If only few values are inserted, example only 1X from Values table is inserted in Message
Example: Results Table CreatedDate Message 2015-08-04 08:45:29.203 successfully inserted value 1X 2015-08-04 08:44:29.103 TEst pass 2015-08-04 08:43:29.103 successfully inserted value 1X 2015-08-04 08:42:29.203 test point
Output: All values from values are not inserted successfully in result table. Total count of values inserted: 1 Missing Values not inserted in results table are: 1Y
I am trying to update one table when records are inserted in another table.
I have added the following trigger to the table “ProdTr” and every time a record is added I want to update the field “Qty3” in the table “ActInf” with a value from the inserted record.
My problem appears to be that I am unable to fill the variables with values, and I cannot understand why it isn’t working, my code is:
ALTER trigger [dbo].[antall_liter] on [dbo].[ProdTr] for insert as begin declare @liter as decimal(28,6)
I want to insert a row for a Global user in Table 'A' whenever ADO.Net code inserts a Local user row into same table. I recommended using a trigger to implement this functionality, but the DBA was against it, saying that stored proecedures should be used, since triggers are unreliable and slow down the system by placing unecessary locks on the table. Is this true OR the DBA is saying something wrong? My thinking is that Microsoft will never include triggers if they are unreliable and the DBA is just wanting to offload the extra DBA task of triggers to the programmer so that a stored procedure is getting called, so he has less headache on his hands.Thanks
I want to pass the 'inserted' table from a trigger into an SP, I think I need to do this by dumping inserted table into a temporary table and passing the temp table. However, I need to do this for many tables, and don't want to list all the column names for each table/trigger (maintenance nightmare).
Can I dump the 'inserted' table to a temp table WITHOUT specifying the column names?
Hi all!In a insert-trigger I have two joins on the table named inserted.Obviously this construction gives a name collition beetween the twojoins (since both joins starts from the same table)Ofcourse I thougt the usingbla JOIN bla ON bla bla bla AS a_different_name would work, but itdoes not. Is there a nice solution to this problem?Any help appriciated
I thought it contained all data used in an insert; meaning if i enter a row in a table the inserted table should then contain all data entered?
Ive created multiple tables linked via primary key Learner_ID this key is unique to any/all students and can never be duplicated hence i thought i would use it to link the tables.
I have tables Fab / Main / Elec / Learner_info / WS_WR.
For Fab / Main / Elec the only data i need form Learner_info is the Learner_ID field, i simply used:
INSERT INTO FAB(Leaner_ID) SELECT Learner_ID FROM Inserted
as a trigger to insert the ID into these tables. Everything works perfectly fine. So i assumed that i would be able to use something very similar to insert say:
Learner_ID, FNAME, LNAME, ONAME and C_NUM from the learner_info table into the WR_WS table. Apparently i was wrong I can insert the learner_ID perfectly but if i then try to add another insert trigger eg: insert fname i get an sql error:
Cannot insert the value NULL into the column 'LEARNER_ID', table 'swdt_im.WS_WR'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
Now from reading the error it suggests to me that because the second trigger is running my learner_id value has become a NULL. Obviously a primary key wont accept this value so the statement fails.
What im struggling to understand, im sure i will solve the problem eventually but i would apreciate help, and this is most important to me rather than a solution is this:
If i enter data into a row on a table does that data go into the inserted table in the same row? or does the data go into inserted as a single entry row, meaning when i tab along from learner_ID into FNAME does Learner_ID become row 1 (in inserted) and FNAME the current row? or do they go into the appropriate columns?
I was under the assumption that i could enter:
LEARNER_ID / FNAME / LNAME / ONAME / C_NUM
into one table and have a trigger insert those values into multiple other tables. Dont suppose someone can help me out im alright querying a SQL db but ive never had to develop anything other than a single table one myself before
I have created a table Table with name as Varchar and id as int. Now i have started inserting the rows like, insert into Table values ('arun',20).Yes i have inserted a row in the table. Now i have got the values " arun's ", 50. insert into Table values('arun's',20) My sqlserver is giving me an error instead of inserting the row. How will you solve this problem?
I would like to access the data inserted or deleted within a trigger. however the built-in tables -- inserted and deleted --- are not accessible. anyone knows why? And is there any other way to do this?
I'm writing a trigger for my DotNetNuke portal that requires me to read the value of a just inserted record. I believe I'm doing this right, still I'm unable to retrieve the desired value from the Inserted table. What am I doing wrong? Here is my code:
CREATE TRIGGER tr_addEditorRole ON [dbo].[UserPortals] AFTER INSERT AS Declare @Portal int set @Portal = (select PortalId FROM inserted)
Declare @TabId Int set @Tabid = (select TabID from Tabs where Tabs.PortalID = @Portal and Tabs.TabName = 'MyTab')
Declare @ModuleId int set @ModuleId = (SELECT ModuleId FROM Modules WHERE Modules.TabID = @TabId and Modules.ModuleTitle = 'MyModule')
Hello, I have 2 tables, and use objectdatasource and stored procedures, with sql server. Let say in the first table I have IDCustomer as a datakey, and other records, and in the second I have the same IDCustomer and CustomerName. I have an INSERT stored procedure that will create a new record in the first table (so generate a new IDCustomer value), and I would like to insert immediately this new value in the second table. How can I know the value of this new IDCustomer ? What is the best way to handle that ? Once the insert in the first table is done should read it the table and extract (with an executescalar) the value and then insert it in the second table ? This solution should work but I am not sure this is the best one. Thanks for your help.
hi, i am writing a trigger to log inserts,updates and deletes in a table and would like to also enter the user details ie who did the transaction. is the spid in the inserted table? if not how do i get this information?
I am inserting one row from sp which is at one database into table on other database.I want to retrieve one columns value which will be recently inserted . I was trying it using output parameter and @@Identity in sp. But hardly any success.I guess we can not get @@Identity values from other server.
I am building my after update trigger. The code snippet looks like this:
DECLARE Curs_PrimKey CURSOR FORSELECT * FROM Temp_PrimKeyOPEN Curs_PrimKeyFETCH NEXT FROM Curs_PrimKey INTO @P_KeyWHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGIN EXEC('INSERT INTO Temp_Value SELECT '+ @P_Key + ' FROM inserted') SELECT @P_Key_Value = (SELECT PValue FROM Temp_Value) EXEC('DELETE FROM Temp_Value') SELECT @P_Key_Insert = @P_Key_Insert + @P_Key + ' = ' + @P_Key_Value + ', ' FETCH NEXT FROM Curs_PrimKey INTO @P_KeyENDCLOSE Curs_PrimKeyDEALLOCATE Curs_PrimKey
You must know that in the trigger after update there is a special table called inserted. From the code above you can see that I am trying to loop all primary key which is included in Temp_PrimKey. Based on the key I want to select the value from table inserted. If I update a row in the table it gives error:
"No row was updated.
The data in row 13 was not committed.Error Source: .Net SQLClient Data Provider.Error Message: Invalid object name 'inserted'."
I am guessing that if we EXEC the query it is not execute inside the trigger environment, hence it doesn't find the table 'inserted'. Can anybody tell me how to work around this? Thanks.
is there any way of getting the identity without using the "@@idemtity" in sql??? I'm trying to use the inserted event of ObjectDataSource, with Outputparameters, can anybody help me???
hi , In my database I have table with column of datatype nvarchar in which I am writing the address of users.Now address field in aspx page is multiline because of which my address contains characters and . These special characters are getting inserted in database as square boxes. Is their any way to avoid it. Also the constraint is that I don't want to replace or by space before writing contents to database. Please write to me any solutions u are having. thanks in advance. Thanks and regards, Nita Jadhav.
There is a stored procedure that inserts a row into 'Vendors' table. Is it possible that two different calls to this sp happen at the same time and as a result, each sp inserts into the table its row at exactly the same time?
I am trying to create a trigger on a table but when I check the syntax it tells me that "The column prefix 'inserted' does not match with a table name or alias used in this query"

I like to use the table "Inserted" within exec(), but it doesn't work because the scope is different. Does anyone have some sort of solution to this problem? The reason I am doing it this way is because I have a table consist of 200+ columns of bit types that contains permission information (The worest design i have ever seen!).
Code Snippet --gather column names
declare @ScreenPermissions nvarchar(256)
declare c_Permission cursor for SELECT [name] FROM syscolumns WHERE id = ( SELECT id FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U' AND [NAME] = 'ScreenPermissions' ) and [name] like 'Allow%'
open c_Permission fetch next from c_Permission into @ScreenPermissions while @@fetch_status = 0 begin

I have created a trigger in SQLExpress which looking for any insertion to a specific table in a database:
Create Trigger Tg_Insert on [tablename] FOR Insert AS Select * FROM Inserted --------------------------------------------------------- Assume there is nothing wrong with this trigger as I have already checked the output with Query tool. My question is how can I display the newly inserted data to the client? In my case, Console application. I want to do something like Console.WriteLine("data from inserted table here"); How can I achieve this? FYI, I'm using VS2005 with sqlexpress 2005. Thanks in advance.
I have a stored procedure that's running a little slower than I would like. I've executed the stored proc in QA and looked at the execution plan and it looks like the problem is in a trigger on one of the updated tables. The update on this table is affecting one row (I've specified the entire unique primary key, so I know this to be the case). Within my trigger there is some code to save an audit trail of the data. One of these statements does an update of the history table based on the inserted and deleted tables. For some reason this is taking 11.89% of the batch cost (MUCH more than any other statement) and within this statement 50% of the cost is for a table scan on inserted and 50% is for a table scan on deleted. These pseudo-tables should only contain one record each though.
Any ideas why this would be causing such a problem? I've included a simplified version of the update below. The "or" statements actually continue for all columns in the table. The same trigger template is used for all tables in the database and none of the others seem to exhibit this behavior as far as I can tell.
Thanks for any help! -Tom.
