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...

I have a SSIS package that reads data from a dump table, runs a custom script that takes date data and converts it to the correct format or nulls and formats amt fields to currency, then inserts it to a new table. The new table redirects insert errors. This process worked fine until about 3 weeks ago. I am processing just under 6 million rows, with 460,000 or so insert errors that did give error column and code.
Now, I am getting 1.5 million errors. and nothing has changed, to my knowledge. I receive the following information.
Error Code -1071607685 Error Column 0 Error Desc No status is available.
The only thing I can find for the above error code is
DTS_E_OLEDBDESTINATIONADAPTERSTATIC_UNAVAILABLE
To add to the confusion, I can not see any errors in the data written to the error table. It appears that after a certain point is reached in the processing, everything, or most records, error out.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

hi
Like Oracle SQL, does SQL server has a 'desc' command which describes the tables of a database?
It would be very helpful instead of using Enterprise Manager
I am trying to write a script to insert more than one column but the script I am making only inserts the column in the second line and I dont know why.
In my code below, columnB is added to the table, but not columnA. I am stumped
My sql is:
<CODE>
Alter table [dbName].[dbo].[tableName] Add columnA bit Default 0 Not NullAlter table [dbName].[dbo].[tableName] Add columnB bit Default 0 Not Null

thanks for your help.
Hey guys, I have a view with dates (TheDate) meant to be arranged in descending order. When I 'Execute SQL' while in the view, the DESC order works just fine and shows up with the latest date first going down. However, once I 'OPEN VIEW' the order keeps defaulting to ASCending order.
How do I keep it in DESC order for viewing? Here's the statement:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT TheDate
FROM dbo.MyDates
ORDER BY TheDate DESC

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

Hello,
I am fairly new to SQL I have started to administer a system which handles carrier information for a mail order system. The logic behind the system is quite simple there are 5 or so columns in a table the first column is the first part of the postcode i.e EX15, the other columns contain which delivery services and depot numbers are associated with that postcode. It works fine at the moment.
However now the main carrier has decided that they are now going to split these postcodes so for example EX15 1* goes to a different depot than EX15 2*
I cant seem to insert EX15 1 into the first column, I get the following error:
Attempt to store duplicate value in unique column. (-155)
Is this because of the space in 'EX15 1'? Because 'EX15' already exists in that column? In which case do I need to somehow tell SQL that there is a space there?
I hope this makes sense
Below is a snap of the table with the existing EX15 postcode data
postcode|carrier_code|available|depot_code|hub_code|county_code
----------------------------------------------------------------
EX15.....|NF/S93......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/SAT......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/930......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/AM.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/ON.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/48.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15.....|NF/3D.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
Here is a snap of how I would like to set up another entry:
postcode|carrier_code|available|depot_code|hub_code|county_code
----------------------------------------------------------------
EX15 1...|NF/S93......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/SAT......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/930......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/AM.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/ON.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/48.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO
EX15 1...|NF/3D.......|........1|34........|C.......|DEVO

I'm trying to perform an insert on a table from another table, but
the fieldnames are different. The data is similar, but there are
less fields as well. Does anyone know how to accomplish this? All
the material I've read on the Internet so far pertaining to Insert
statements, has all the column names matching up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to insert multiple values into a single column based on various "tests".
For example, I want to check a sales_order table and flag all new orders coming in against previous orders placed that were determined to be fraudulent. If I were to set up i.e. five different tests(i.e. check email, credit_card number etc. against previous fraud orders), then there would be the possibility that any given order can be flagged 1 to 5 times. I want to record all of these tests within the same column if possible. Therefore the output may look something like the following:
order_number fraud_score
1234567890 a,b,d
5432109876 e
2345678901 null
3455607983 a,b,c,d,e
I was considering adding five additional columns to the table and running five different update steps, but this doesn't appear very scalable. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi
In MySQL it's simple to insert new columns in specific locations in a table like this
sql Code:
Original
- sql Code
alter table foo add column bar integer not null default 0 after baz
ALTER TABLE foo ADD COLUMN bar integer NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 AFTER baz
But attempting to do the same thing in MSSQL fails with a syntax error on the word "after." I can insert columns in MSSQL but only if they are added to the end. I looked at the Microsoft insert documentation here but don't see any way to replicate the above MySQL command.
Is there any way to do this in MSSQL? Or do I have to completely recreate all my tables from scratch?
Thanks for any help

Does anyone have a general rule or guide on when to use this SQL 2000 option when creating indexes? I was thinking generally on nonclustered indexes where the column would be unique and incremental and usually filtered on by range and often used in the order by clause. Such as columns of datetime or integers datatypes. Thanks.

I have been training in SQL on MySQL, and now that I am on TSQL, I can't seem to find an equivalent to the command:
Code Snippet
DESC table_name;--OR
DESCRIBE table_name;
In MySQL, either command returns a list of the columns of the table, as well specifications about these columns (whether or not they can accept NULL values, their default values, etc.)
Hi there, newbie here.
I'm building a web application that allows for tagging of items, using ASP.NET 2.0, C# and SQL Server.
I have my USERS, ITEMS and TAGS separated out into three tables, with an intersection table to connect them.
Imagine a user has found an item they are interested in and is about to tag it. They type their tag into a textbox and hit Enter.
Here's what I want to do:
I want to search the TagText column in my TAGS table, to see if the chosen tag is already in the table. If it is, the existing entry will be used in the new relationship the user is creating. Thus I avoid inserting a duplicate value in this column and save space. If the value is not already in the column, a new entry will be created.
Here's where I'm up to:
I can type a tag into a textbox and then feed it to a query, which returns any matches to a GridView control.
Now I'm stuck... I imagine I have to use "if else" scenario, but I'm unsure of the code I'll have to use. I also think that maybe ADO.NET could help me here, but I have not yet delved into this. Can anyone give me a few pointers to help me along?
Cheers!

If any body knows please post the solution its urgent.
I have a string of comma delimited values such as the following:
1,2,3,4,5
I have a table with ONE column only. How can I do an insert statement which will insert each of these values?
If I type the following:
"INSERT INTO tabletest SELECT 1,2,3,4,5"
I get this error:
"Insert error: column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition. "
This makes sense because I do not have 5 columns I only have 1. But how can I get around this?
Any help is most appreciated! Thanks in advance...mary
