Inserting From Datas In One Table From Multiple Tables

Dec 5, 2007

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my query. What i want to happen is to populate my table EV_NOTIFICATIONDETAILS (Docownerid, CurrentSentDate, LastSentDate, detailsID, GeneralRemarks) using the datas from the two different tables EV_NOTIFICATIONHEADER and EV_DOCDETAILS.
I tried to create some a query but im having a error. The problem is once i insert the data from datas to the columns Docownerid, CurrentSentDate, LastSentDate the datas are stored in the database and when i tried to insert the remaining columns TO EV_NOTIFICATIONDETAILS detailsID, GeneralRemarks getting the datas from EV_DOCDETAIL it creates a new set of records in the database. Meaning it doesn't update the records in the table EV_NOTIFICATIONDETAILS but it creates a new set of records.
here's my code:
INSERT INTO EV_NOTIFICATIONDETAILS
(Docownerid,
CurrentNoticeSentDate,
LastNoticeSentDate)
SELECT
Docownerid,
CurrentSentDate,
LastSentDate
FROM
EV_NOTIFICATIONHEADER
INSERT INTO EV_NOTIFICATIONDETAILS
(detailsID,
GeneralRemarks)
SELECT
detailsID,
GeneralRemarks
FROM
EV_DOCDETAIL
 

 
 
Any ideas and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Inserting Data Into Multiple Tables In 1 Transaction

Feb 7, 2007

Hello everyone, My web application uses SQL Server database and I am connecting via standard SqlConnection object and running stored procedures using SqlCommand object. In one of my page, I have data coming from 2 different tables. Now , data from 1 table comes as only single record. But from other table it comes as multiple records. Meaning, data that I read as 1 record, goes to different textbox and dropdown controls on page. Data that comes in multiple rows, I am binding that data with DataGrid. Now, in aspx page data from both table can be updated and on aspx page I only need to provide a single save button. Now, I am not sure how to save/insert/update a single row in 1 table and multiple rows in another table in 1 transaction. I thought of stored procedure. But I don't think its straightforward with stored procedures since table with multiple records, I am not sure how to pass all the records in stored procedure's arguments.Is there any way that I can control whole transaction in ASP .NET? Thanks,Ujjaval

Inserting Data Into Multiple Related Tables

Jun 18, 2007

Hey guys up until now i've only inserted data into a single table. Now I have a form that collects information over a span of three forms. Each form has a table related to it and these three tables are related to each other.

What I want to know is:
1)How do you go abouts inserting data into multiple related tables that have constraints on them?

2)Would you use a stored procedure in an instance like this?

3)At what stage would you execute the sql queries. I assume you do this once you have collected all the required information as opposed to: Enter info into form1, submit form1 data to database... enter info into form2, submit form2 data into database etc

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Say for instance I have three related tables.

table1
------
tbl1_id
tbl1_data1
tbl1_data2

table2
------
tbl2_id
tbl2_data1
tbl2_data2

table3
------
tbl3_id
tbl3_data1
tbl3_data2

table1 has a one-to-many relationship with table2
table3 has a one-to-one relationship with table2

Importing Partials Datas From 2 Tables In Another One

Nov 12, 2005

I am having a problem to get all datas into one table
I must get datas from 2 other tables
datas from the first table are columns
but datas of the second table are rows

I cannot change the structure of TableA because an other application is using it as it is

TableA

val1 | val2 | val3 | val4 |name | descr | value
1 | 2 | 3 |4 | john | ok | 451


TableA has thousands of rows and different numbers
I must get 8 different datas from TableA

so I get an horrible Query !

Inserting To Multiple Tables In SQL Server 2005 That Use Identity Specification

Feb 20, 2007

Hi, I am having a bit of hassle with trying to enter details to multiple tables in SQL Server 2005.
I have four tables, an
Attendance Table (AttendanceID(PK Identity specific), MembershipNo, Date)
Resistance Table (ResistId(PK Identity specific), Weight , Reps, Sets)
Aerobics Tables(AerobicsID(PK Identity specific), MachineID, Intensity, Time)
and a linking table for all of them.... ExerciseMaster(AttendanceID,ResistanceID,AerobicsI D)

My problem is that I can insert data to each specific table by itself using seperate insert statements.....eg....

//insert an attendance record to the attendance table
string userID;

userID = Session["User"].ToString();

SqlDataSource pgpDataSource = new SqlDataSource();
pgpDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringLogin"].ToString();

pgpDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;
pgpDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO [Attendance] ([MembershipNo], [Date]) VALUES (@MembershipNo, @Date)";
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("MembershipNo", userID);
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("Date", txtVisitDate.Text);

int RowsAffected = 0;

try
{
RowsAffected = pgpDataSource.Insert();
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
Server.Transfer("~/Problem.aspx");
}

finally
{
pgpDataSource = null;
}


//insert an aerobics record into the aerocibs table

SqlDataSource pgpDataSource = new SqlDataSource();
pgpDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringLogin"].ToString();

pgpDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;
pgpDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO [Aerobics] ([MachineID], [Intensity], [ExerciseTime]) VALUES (@MachineID, @Intensity, @ExerciseTime)";


pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("MachineID", rower.ToString());
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("Intensity", txtRowerLevel.Text);
pgpDataSource.InsertParameters.Add("ExerciseTime", txtRowerTime.Text);

int RowsAffected = 0;

try
{
RowsAffected = pgpDataSource.Insert();
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
Server.Transfer("~/Problem.aspx");
}

finally
{
pgpDataSource = null;
}
//same code as above for the resistance table

However, i am facing the problem where this does not populate the link table(ExerciseMaster) with any information as i am unable to write the relevant IDs into the table that have been auto generated by SQL Server for each of the subTables.
I have read several forums where they recommend using something called @@IDENTITY but i have no idea how or where to use this in order to fill my exercise table...
Any help would be so much appreciated.... Also, hopefully what i have said all makes sense and someone will be able to help me...oh and one more thing...this is an ASP.NET page coding in C#
Cheers

Pls advise on the correct way of constructing this statement.

Inserting Multiple Records To A Table

Apr 1, 2004

Hi..
I really need a help.
Is there any way to insert multiple records into a table in one go?

I have a table named Fruit.
It contains FruitId,OwnerId,Colour

The list of colour is got from another table name FruitColour.
FruitColour Consists of 2 column, FruitName and Colour.

Is it possible to insert multiple records into Fruit table with one query if only the colour is changed.

Sample case
I have an Apple.
Fruit id=2
OwnerId=2
Colour -- > Select Colour From FruitColour where FruitName='Apple' (Will return multiple records)

I tried to insert using this query:
Insert into Fruit(FruitId,OwnerId,Colour) Values (2,2,Select Colour from FruitColour where FruitName='Apple').

Gives me this error
Subqueries are not allowed in this context. Only scalar expressions are allowed.

I need to do this because actually I am inserting multiple fruit at one time, and each have multiple colour. If I need to insert the colour one by one for each fruit it will takes a very long time.

Any suggestion are welcomed.
Thank you in advanced.

Is it possible to insert multiple rows in a table using one INSERT statment. If yes, how can I do that ? I tried doing this using the substitution method.

Using Substitution Method - This is how,I proceeded.

INSERT INTO EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, JOB, MGR, HIREDATE, SAL, COMM, DEPTNO)
SELECT ‘&EMPN’, ‘&ENAM’, ‘&JO’, ‘&MG’, ‘&HI’, ‘&SA’, ‘&COMM’, ‘&DEPTN’ UNION ALL

Error Inserting Row In Table Where There Is Multiple Foreign Key.

Oct 26, 2007

Hi guys,
I have created 3 tables namely Static, Dynamic and Demo...
Static has colums FormID(uniqueidentifier, PrimaryKey) and FormName(Nvarchar(50)).
Dynamic has colums formID(uniqueidentifier,PrimaryKey) and FormName(Nvarchar(50)).
Demo has 4 colums namely ValueID(uniqueidentifier, Primary Key), formID(uniqueidentifier, foreign key), Name(nvarchar(50)), Value(nvarchar(50).

Now the formID coloum in Demo table i have set as foreign key to both the dynamic table as well as static table on the formID colum in both table.

Now first i insert a row in the dynamic table then take the uniqueidentifier which is generated automatically and try
to insert in the Demo table in formID colum as that colum is FK to dynamic and static but when i try to insert a row it show that its violating the FOREIGN KEY CONSTRAINT

the exact error is

Msg 547, Level 16, State 0, Line 1

The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK_Demo_Dynamic1". The conflict occurred in database "huzefaJTest", table "dbo.Dynamic", column 'formid'.

The statement has been terminated.

please if anyone know do reply.....

Inserting Multiple Rows Into One Table (with Calculated Fields)

Nov 29, 2006

Hello all,my first post here...hope it goes well. I'm currently working onstored procedure where I translated some reporting language into T-SQLThe logic:I have a group of tables containing important values for calculation.I run various sum calculations on various fields in order to retrievecost calculations ...etc.1) There is a select statement which gathers all the "records" whichneed calculations.ex: select distinct Office from Offices where OfficeDesignation ='WE' or OfficeDesignation = 'BE...etc.As a result I get a list of lets say 5 offices which need to becalculated!2) A calculation select statement is then run on a loop for each ofthe returned 5 offices (@OfficeName cursor used here!) found above.Anexample can be like this(* note that @WriteOff is a variable storing the result):"select @WriteOff = sum(linecost * (-1))From Invtrans , InventoryWhere ( transtype in ('blah', 'blah' , 'blah' ) )and ( storeloc = @OfficeName )and ( Invtrans.linecost <= 0 )and ( Inventory.location = Invtrans.storeloc )and ( Inventory.itemnum = Invtrans.itemnum )"...etcThis sample statement returns a value and is passed to the variable@WriteOff (for each of the 5 offices mentioned in step 1). This is donearound 9 times for each loop! (9 calculations)3) At the end of each loop (or each office), we do an insert statementto a table in the database.

SQL 2000: Inserting Multiple Rows Into A Single Table

Jul 20, 2005

To anyone that is able to help....What I am trying to do is this. I have two tables (Orders, andOrderDetails), and my question is on the order details. I would liketo set up a stored procedure that essentially inserts in the orderstable the mail order, and then insert multiple orderdetails within thesame transaction. I also need to do this via SQL 2000. Right now ihave "x" amount of variables for all columns in my orders tables, andall Columns in my Order Details table. I.e. @OColumn1, @OColumn2,@OColumn3, @ODColumn1, @ODColumn2, etc... I would like to create astored procedure to insert into Orders, and have that call anotherstored procedure to insert all the Order details associated with thatorder. The only way I can think of doing it is for the program to passme a string of data per column for order details, and parse the stringvia T-SQL. I would like to get away from the String format, and gowith something else. If possible I would like the application tosubmit a single value per variable multiple times. If I do it this waythough it will be running the entire SP again, and again. Anysuggestions on the best way to solve this would be greatlyappreciated. If anyone can come up with a better way feel free. Myonly requirement is that it be done in SQL.Thank you

Split A Column String-value Into Multiple Columns / Inserting In Another Table

Aug 14, 2012

I have a table with a string value, where all values are seperated by a space/blank. I now want to use SQL to split all the values and insert them into a different table, which then later will result in deleting the old table, as soon as I got all values out from it.

Old Table:

Code:
ID, StringValue

New Table:

Code:
ID, Value1, Value2
Do note: Value1 is INT, Value2 is of nvarchar, hence Value2 can contain spaces... I just need to split on the FIRST space, then convert index[0] to int, and store index[1] as it is.

I can split on all spaces and just Select them all and add them like so: SELECT t.val1 + ' ' + t.val2... If I cant find the first space that is... I mean, first 2-10 characters in the string can be integer, but does not have to be.Shall probably do it in code instead of SQL?Now I want to run a query that selects the StringValue from OldTable, splits the string by ' ' (a blank) and then inserts them into New Table.

Code:
SELECT CASE CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1)
WHEN 0 THEN OldTable.stringvalue
ELSE SUBSTRING(OldTable.stringvalue, 1, CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) - 1)
END
AS FirstWord
FROM OldTable

Found an example using strange things like CHARINDEX..But issue still remains, because the first word is of integer, or it does not have to be...If it isn't, there is not "first value", and the whole string shall be passed into "value2".How to detect if the very first character is of integer type?

Code:
@declare firstDigit int
IF ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) = 1
set @firstDigit = CAST(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int)
ELSE
set @firstDigit = -1

[code]....

SQL Server 2014 :: Transaction Rollback When Multiple Threads Are Inserting Records Into Table Because Of Trigger

In the ECASE table there is trigger to get the max value of case_id column in ecase based on project and increment one to that case_id value and insert into ecase table .

When we insert a new record to the ECASE table this trigger calls and insert the case_id column value.

When i run with multiple threads , the transaction is rolled back because of trigger . The reason is , on the project table the lock is happening while getting the max value of case_id column based on project.

Stored Procedure Not Inserting Into Linking Table Properly - Two Tables - Two Insert Statements

I have two tables (Publication and PublicationAuthors). PublicaitonAuthors is the linking table containing foreign keys PublicaitonID and AuthorID. Seeming as one Publication can have many authors associated with it, i need the stored procedure to create the a single row in the publication table and then recognise that multiple authors need to be inserted into the linking table for that single PublicationID. For this i have a listbox with multiple selection =true.
At the moment with the storedprocedure below it is creating two rows in PublicaitonID, and then inserting two rows into PublicationAuthors with only the first selected Author from the listbox??? Can anyone help???ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedureTest2

DB Design: One Table Or Multiple Tables?

Dec 28, 2005

I am developing a Content management system of sorts and I want it
to be pretty flexible. I have noticed that with web content (News,
Articles, Events, FAQs) that there is a lot of similarity between these
items. They all have the same basic fields:
TitleSynopsisBodyStartDateEndDate
(for News, Articles, FAQs start and end date can be used for content
expiration. For events, they are used for the actual event dates.)
But for some types of content, I will need fields specific to that
type. For instance, I want to have a few custom settings for a "Photo
Gallery" type, like, how many rows/columns of thumbnails to display per
page.

I feel like I have 3 options, but would really appreciate your advice. I created diagrams for the 3 options, located here:  http://nontalk.com/dbdesign/

SQLCE V3.5: Single SDF With Multiple Tables Or Multiple SDFs With Fewer Tables

Mar 21, 2008

Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are:


1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup.

1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types.

1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data.
When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that.

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
Bob

Use Single Table Or Multiple Separate Tables?

Sep 7, 2005

Hi,
We are building an application for online system for people to place ADs for selling various used items like Car, Electronics, Houses, Books etc.
If someone selling a car then he can fill out headline, year, make, model, mileage, transmission, condition, color, price, description, contact etc.
Similarly if someone selling a digital camera he will fillout headline, memory, zoom, megapixel, maker, model, color, batter, description etc.
Option 1: I can have a main table to hold the common attributes of all different types of ADs (headline, images, contact, price, color, condition, description)
+ 1 table to store string values of all ADs (car: maker, model, square feet (if house), memory, megapixel (camera) etc)
+ 1 table to store the droplist select values(car: transmission, door, seat etc; house: year_built)
pros: single table for all ADs. unique IDs for all ADs, easy to extend as new attributes can be dropped easily.
cons: lot of physical reads of 2nd and 3rd table from join. 10 times physical reads compared to option 2 when reading 5000 records.
Option 2: have different set of table for each AD type. Car will have its own main table + 1 table to store multiselect list box values.
Similarly housing will have its own set of tables
pros: 10% less physical read than option 1.
cons: hard to add new attributes. We have to modify the main table by adding one column.
Query will go to different table based on the category.
Do you have any suggestions on which way to go?Thanks

Transact SQL :: Compare A Table Against Multiple Tables

Jul 16, 2015

I downloaded a day's worth of data into a single table first and named it as Full_Day_Data_Table.(10,000 records)

Later for some other purpose, downloaded the same day's data into five small tables.

Now when I compare the total row count of  Full_Day_Data_Table vs Sum of row counts of five small tables, the row count does not match. 

So, I would like to know the records that exists in Full_Day_Data_Table and not in small tables.
