Hi,
I am having problem in bulk update of a sql server table haning identity column from a datatable( has no identity column) using sqlbulkcopy. I tried several approaches, but it does not show any error nor is the table getting updated. But the identity value seems to getting increased every time.
thanks.

I have a database that has a tble with a field that autoincrements as a primary key. meanig that the field type is BigInteger and it is set up as my Identity Column. Now when I insert a new record that field gets updated automaticly.
How can I get this value in the same operation as my insert? meaning, in 1 sub, I insert a new record but then need to retieve the Identity Value. All in the same procedure.
Waht is the way to achive this please?

Hi,
I am using SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition & Merge Replication
in this I want to insert a record into table,
in that table I have taken UserID coloumn as auto incrementing Identity type.
In a book I read that,
If you are using an Identity column, you must find the next available number and reseed before an insert can be successful. You will also have to set up ranged identity columns on the published database to prevent errors when the new data is merged.
Now I want to ask here that, how should I ressed that value before inserting?????
any help in a form of CODe will be appriciated.....
thanks in advance...
Hi, All:Please help. I use sql server as back end and Access 2003 as front end(everything is DAO).A table on SQL server has an identity column as the key.We have trouble on adding records to this table using the following SQL.strSQL = "INSERT INTO myTableOnSQLServer (A, B, C, D, E) SELECT A, B, C, D,E FROM myTableonAccessLocal"db.execute strSQLThe schema of the table "myTableOnSQLServer" and the schema of the table"myTableonAccessLocal" are all the same except that the "myTableOnSQLServer"has an identity column (ID). The key of the "myTableOnSQLServer" is "ID" andthe table "myTableonAccessLocal" does not have a key.When we try to run the query, it gives errors indicating the key is violatedor missing.Should I figure out the autonumber for it first and then add to the SQLserver table?Many thanks,HS

Hi
I need to insert values from a text-file to a table with a primary key as identity. In the text file I have no idea of the primary key values and i get "foreign key constraint violation" when trying to import null values into the column.
How can I solve the problem? With ordinary insert-statement there is no problem since the table generates identity- key values automatically. Is there a possibility to generate identity values with DTS-import?

We are in the conversion process of making the database ints.This is a change from a guid PK to an integer based PK that uses an int Identity. The program still uses the guid, and we are trying to map that guid to the databases int.We insert using TVPs passed from code. Since the identity is being set upon insert I have three things to accomplish:
1) Insert all the data into the dbo table
2) Update the parent Id in the table
3) Pass the SetsId guid, Sets_Id int, ParentSets_Id int back to the program
This is a high transaction table that will have a lot of records (millions).
--Sample table creation. There is a FK between Sets_Id to ParentSets_Id, Clustered PK on the Sets_Id
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[JSets]') AND type in (N'U'))
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[JSets](
[SetsID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[Sets_Id] bigint Identity (1,1) NOT NULL,

Hi folks, I have a little challenge for you, I hope :)
The short story is as follows: I have multiple rather well normalized tables, and a view which connect them all togheter. In one of the tables I have an xml column, which I in the view to varchar(4000), since SSIS doesn't like xml all that much. To make the view updateable I have an instead of trigger placed on it, which works quite perfectly from T-SQL. SSIS however, claims that I cannot insert to a read-only column. Does anyone have the slightest idea how I can get around this?
The only solution I can think of is having two columns for the XML data, one as varchar and the other as varchar, then having a trigger updating the xml column when the varchar is updated, but that would require recursive triggers, which I am not too happy with.
Cheers

Hi,
I have two tables table1 and new_table
Table1 has id_value column which is int and it is idenity specification is yes and identity increment is 1 .
And I have a NEW_TABLE with column name new_id which should store current id_value of Table1.
This type of functionality is requirement for my project.
I should get a current value of id_value from table1 . if I say SELECT * FROM NEW_TABLE ;
Please help me out to fix this issue

Hi 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 have a 2010 SSIS package where I am reading csv files with different fields and formatted data, I have created separate packages for each file and I am formatting the data to fit the final destination tables data elements, I've been instructed to create 7 separate packages to read each file and the format the data from the 7 csv files, and insert into their table tbl1, tbl2, tbl3...etc then, I'm taking a execute sql task and wanting to insert the tbl1, tbl2, tbl3...etc into destination table that will be the final table for all reports and other uses.
1- should I create a ID?
2- these files will be read once a month
3- I want to append the data, not drop and recreate each run,
4- It's 2012 SQL and 2010 SSIS
Each csv file is in a different format, some have 15 columns, other have 8 I have to parse the data, in SP to align with the fields in the destination table.
5- Can I force RowID to be the next auto gen number from tbl1,for the start of insert for tbl2, then last row of tbl2 for insert of tbl3???
Hi,
I have a temporary table into which I insert bulk data from a stored procedure output. It will be easy for me if the temptable can have a column with sequential numbers 1,2,3,4,. I could not figure out a way to do it. This is the stripped down sql what I have in the stored procedure.
insert into temptable select name, email, date from usertable where condition = xyz.
I tried auto increment column with seed 1, increment 1. But if I delete and insert again it does not start from 1. Is there any way to accompolish this? It will make the front-end code very simple.
Thank you

Having an identity column in target table, how do I use SQL 7 DTS ?
In Import wizard, I chose 'ignore' in source, checked Enable Indenity Insert - DTS failed with a msg like - a column cannot have NULL...
In DTS package, had Fast load and Enable Indenity checked - no luck !
What would be the standard procs for this since this sounds like a very common
senario.
Appreciate your help very much !

I'm sure this is a common problem but I can't find any relevant info on this site
I have a table that I would like to insert values into. I want to take the values from a secondary table using a select statement.
e.g. a simplified version...
TABLE1
(
Id INTEGER IDENTITY,
UserName VARCHAR(50),
Description VARCHAR(50)
)
TABLE 2
(
UserName VARCHAR(50),
Description VARCHAR(50)
)
Runing the insert statement
INSERT Table1 (UserName, Description)
SELECT *
FROM TABLE2
results in the error
erver: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Id', table 'CDS_Live.dbo.Table1'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
I was under the impression that an identity column would be automatically inserted by SQL server. Now I know I could write a piece of anonymous Transact SQL which declares a cursor by selecting all rows from table 2 and inserting rows into table 1 on a row by row basis, but is there any way I could do the Insert with a single INSERT statement?
thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedLooking up surrogate keys in a dimension table and adding these to your data flow is easy when there is a match in your dimension table for every key in your fact table. However, I am puzzled by how to manage the data flow when no match can be found for a specific key in the fact table when doing the lookup AND I then want to insert this unknown key as an unknown/inferred member in the dimension table. The problem is further complicated by the fact that when I have inserted the unknown member in the dimension table and it has been assigned a surrogate key there, I want to add this surrogate key to my fact table - just as if there had been a match in the lookup in the first place.
View 22 Replies View RelatedIn a cursor, I declare a table variable like so:
DECLARE @TempTable TABLE(RowID INT IDENTITY, valueID int)

Whenever I import (or even append from another table) data to a table that has an Identity column, I get an error: Cannot insert NULL values in Identity column.
Isn't the Idenity column supposed to incement automatically without me having to provide a value? Using INSERT provides an Identity value automatically, using import however doesn't.
How can I overcome this problem? (I now delete and recreate the Identity column - really BAD practice!)
