Hello
Suppose a database Db1 with tables tl1 and tl2 and a second database db2
with tables tl3 et tl4.
Is it possible to make a join between tables of the two databases ?
As for example, Select * from tl1 INNER JOIN tl3 where tl1.Field1 =
tl3.Field3
Thank for any help

I got the following problem to solve in TSQL. I don't want to use a cursor. But with the set based solution I am stuck.
Here is my problem:
DECLARE @tmp TABLE (CustomerID INT, CustomerLink INT, PRIMARY KEY(CustomerID))
INSERT @tmp
VALUES(100001,0)
,(100002,100001)
,(100003,100001)
,(100004,100003)
,(100005,100006)
[Code] ....
Desired result:
[CustomerID of a group member],[smallest CustomerID per Group]
|(GroupID)|CustomerID|CustomerLink|
|100001 |100001 |100001 |
|100001 |100002 |100001 |

Hello all, this is my second post to this newsgroup. It's a questionabout stored procedures and permissions and how these behave betweendatabases.Here's the scenario. I have a database that stores information for asystem "A", and I have a different database on the same SQL serverthat stores the login and other info "LOGIN". I write a storedprocedure in the "A" database that checks some tables in the "LOGIN"database, let's call this "SP_A".Additionally I have a user account that accesses all appropriatestored procedures in "A" called "USER_A", and the same for the "LOGIN"database, "USER_LOGIN".Here's the part that raised my curiosity. I log into the server viaQuery Analyzer using the "USER_A" account. I run "SP_A" which does ajoin between some table in "A" and another table in "LOGIN". I give"USER_A" execute permission on "SP_A", then I try to run "SP_A" andget an error:SELECT permission denied on object '(table in "LOGIN" database)',database '(real name of "LOGIN")', owner 'dbo'Huh? how come I need to assign additional select permissions in thisdatabase if I'm not doing an actual select statement? I'm not evendynamically running a select statement through an exec function. Thisjust struck me as odd, seeing as how I never explicitly set SELECTpermission on any table in "A" for "USER_A", yet my stored procedureworks, but between databases I have to assign extra permissions for astored procedure "SP_A" access to the tables in "LOGIN".Anyone able to explain this behavior? Because I'm at a loss and I'veonly been doing this DB thing for about 2 years.Thanks in advance, all.-TJ
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm doing a web application that will get some information from an ERP.
At this moment I have 2 databases:
1) The aspnetdb, where I have the tables for Merbership and Role
2) The ERP database
I need to put my web application tables on one of these two DB's. This tables will reference the users from the membership and some products from the ERP DB.
I will store products requests that will store both UserID (from aspnetdb) and ProductID (from ERP DB). I'm thinking to put these tables on the aspnetdb, so that all web application tables stick together. But, I will loose tha ability to make joins with the ERP database, right?
Do you think this will work? Can someone make some comments about this situation, and give me some tips?
Thank you!
Hi There,
Our company deals with financial education and typically has 9 different databases which have some cross referenced stored procedures. Every time we replicate Production database into TEST and DEV environments, we had to manually update the database references in Stored procedures. and it usually takes atleast a week and until then all the dev and test work has to wait.
Hence, I wanted to write a script, Here the code below.
-- These two variables must contain a valid database name.
DECLARE @vchSearch VarChar(15),
@vchReplacement VarChar(15)
SET @vchSearch = 'Search'
SET @vchReplacement = 'Replacement'
/*
-- Select the Kaplan Database Names in the Current Server
*/
DECLARE @tblDBNames TABLE (vchDBName VarChar(30))
INSERT INTO
@tblDBNames
SELECT
Name
FROM
MASTER.DBO.SYSDATABASES
WHERE
Has_DBAccess(Name)=1
And Name IN ( 'DB_DEV', 'DB_TEST', 'DB_PROD', 'WEBDB_DEV', 'WEBDB_TEST', 'WEBDB_PROD' , 'FINDB_DEV', 'FINDB_TEST', 'FINDB_PROD')
--SELECT * FROM @DBNames
IF @vchSearch NOT IN (SELECT vchDBName FROM @tblDBNames)
BEGIN
PRINT 'Not a Valid Search DB Name'
GOTO Terminate
END
IF @vchReplacement NOT IN (SELECT vchDBNAME FROM @tblDBNames)
BEGIN
PRINT 'Not a Valid Replacement DB Name'
GOTO Terminate
END
-- We have Valid DB Names, lets proceed...
--USE @vchReplacement
SET @vchSearch = '%' + @vchSearch + '..%'
SET @vchReplacement = '%' + @vchReplacement + '..%'
-- Get Names of Stored Procedures to be altered
DECLARE @tblSProcNames TABLE (vchSPName VarChar(100))
INSERT INTO
@tblSProcNames
SELECT
DISTINCT so.Name
FROM
SYSOBJECTS so
INNER JOIN SYSCOMMENTS sc
ON sc.Id = so.Id
WHERE
so.XType='P'
AND sc.Text LIKE @vchSearch
ORDER BY
so.name
-- Now, the table @tblSprocNames has the names of stored procedures to be updated.
-- And we have to Some HOW ?!! grab the stored proc definition and use REPLACE() to
-- update the database reference
-- Then, use cursors to loop through each stored proc and upate the reference
Now, I have got stuck how to extract the body of a stored procedure into a variable.
Please Help.... I dont want spend weeks of time in the future to do this work manually.

Hi there I have a following table
Month| Debt1 | Debt1 |TotalDebtToDate

3 | 1 | 1 | 7
4 | 2 | 1 | 10

Basically I have Debt1 and Debt2 given and I need to calculate TotalDebtToDate
As you see it contains sum of all debts from previous monthes(TotalDebtToDate from a row above)
+ current debt1 + current debt2
Is it possible to write such query in MS SQL 2005 for calculating TotalDebtToDate?
please help!!!
Thank you very much.

Hello,
Are there any issues with running the 32 bit version of Windows 2003 server and SQL Server Standard edition on a 64 bit Intel hardware Platform? I don't see why there would be if the OS is 32bit but just thought I'd ask.
Thanks.
Whats the definitoin. I've been digging for a while, but cannot locate.
TIA, cfr
Normally, you establish referential integrity so that foreign key in one table points to a primary in another. Here is a composite key:
(A_ref, B_ref) => (A, B)
Consider a situation where A is a primary key in table T1. It is refered by T2, which has A,B as it's prmary key. An example of this situation would be a table of printers and table of batches a printer has printed at specific date. The batches are identified by Printer, Date, BatchNo within the date. Now, we create a temporary table T3, which addresses "today" batches. The "today" reference is taken from a date is taken from some record in the DB and, combined with the Printer ID and BatchNo, must point to a record in T2. Is it possible to specify such a complex relationship to ensure the referential integrity?
The advantages of the integirty are:
-- the referred records are pinned down from removal
-- it is not possible to refer unexisting object; thus, the referee is ensured to refer an existing one.
Thanks.
Hi All -
I have come across the need to use a cube in AS 2005 for an application. Unfortunately this will be the first time writting an ASP.Net application which uses one. I was wondering if any of you had any good books or references that I could look at to get an idea of how I should approach this issue.
Thanks in advance.
I am currently developing a stored procedure that includes a number of computed fields. Is it possible to reference a computed value, (eg. FLdA), or do I need to CREATE a temp file and then reference the FldA and FldB values. I have simplified my code, it is much more extensive in that there are numerous WHEN clauses attached to each FldA and FldB computation.
SELECT FldA = CASE
WHEN .... THEN CurQty * 1.5
WHEN .... THEN CurQty * 1.75 ELSE 0 END),
FldB = CASE .....
NewValue = CASE
WHEN .... THEN FldA * CurValue
WHEN .... THEN FldB * CurValue
etc.
I have a task to where I need to move a column from one table toanother. I want to be sure I update any view, stored procedure,trigger, etc. that references the column.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a data list that will grow over time. The values are listed vertically in a column; most recent value at the bottom.

Hello again,
I'm going through my tables and rewriting them so that I can create relationship-based constraints and create foreign keys among my tables. I didn't have a problem with a few of the tables but I seem to have come across a slightly confusing hiccup.
Here's the query for my Classes table:
Code:
CREATE TABLE Classes
(
class_id
INT
IDENTITY
PRIMARY KEY
NOT NULL,
teacher_id
INT
NOT NULL,
class_title
VARCHAR(50)
NOT NULL,
class_grade
SMALLINT
NOT NULL
DEFAULT 6,
class_tardies
SMALLINT
NOT NULL
DEFAULT 0,
class_absences
SMALLINT
NOT NULL
DEFAULT 0,
CONSTRAINT Teacher_instructs_ClassFKIndex1 FOREIGN KEY (teacher_id)
REFERENCES Users (user_id)
)
This statement runs without problems and I Create the relationship with my Users table just fine, having renamed it to teacher_id. I have a 1:n relationship between users and tables AND an n:m relationship because a user can be a student or a teacher, the difference is one field, user_type, which denotes what type of user a person is. In any case, the relationship that's 1:n from users to classes is that of the teacher instructing the class. The problem exists when I run my query for the intermediary table between the class and the gradebook:
Code:
CREATE TABLE Classes_have_Grades
(
class_id
INT
PRIMARY KEY
NOT NULL,
teacher_id
INT
NOT NULL,
grade_id
INT
NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT Grades_for_ClassesFKIndex1 FOREIGN KEY (grade_id)
REFERENCES Grades (grade_id),
CONSTRAINT Classes_have_gradesFKIndex2 FOREIGN KEY (class_id, teacher_id)
REFERENCES Classes (class_id, teacher_id)
)
Query Analyzer spits out: Quote: Originally Posted by Query Analyzer There are no primary or candidate keys in the referenced table 'Classes' that match the referencing column list in the foreign key 'Classes_have_gradesFKIndex2'. Now, I know in SQL Server 2000 you can only have one primary key. Does that mean I can have a multi-columned Primary key (which is in fact what I would like) or does that mean that just one field can be a primary key and that a table can have only the one primary key?
In addition, what is a "candidate" key? Will making the other fields "Candidate" keys solve my problem?
Thank you for your assistance.
We installed SQL7 over the weekend. Everything was working peachy through yesterday. This morning SQL server is requiring all of the queries to require references to the username in the from clause...
For example
"Select * from mytable" used to work fine. Not it requires "select * from username.mytable"
I'm logged in as the same username, which is the DB Owner as well. Any idea why this is happening all the sudden?
TIA

How do you add a reference if the assembly you want to reference does not live in C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727? It doesn't seem to make sense that you cannot access the connections the AquireConnection() method serves since the interfaces are defined in Microsoft.SQLServer.DTSRuntimeWrap.dll (in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SDKAssemblies).
For example the code below works fine, in order to make it work I had to copy DTSRuntimeWrap.dll to v2.0.50727, surely any assembly which is been added to the GAC should be available as a referece?
Public Sub Main()
Dim cmgr As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.ConnectionManager = Dts.Connections("FTP Connection Manager")
Dim cn As Object = cmgr.AcquireConnection(Nothing)
Dim ftpConnection As IDTSFtpClientConnection90
ftpConnection = TryCast(cn, IDTSFtpClientConnection90)
ftpConnection.Connect()
Dim folders As String()
Dim files As String()
ftpConnection.GetListing(folders, files)
ftpConnection.Close()
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
Hi everyone,
When you've got -for example- a derived column task linked with a Flat file and then you change any field and come back to derived column task again you have select that field
with two possibilities:
1-€˜Leave as invalid column reference€™ /
2-€˜Delete invalid column reference€™
It€™s easy when just one is affected but when you have eight or ten is very tedious do the same one by one. Any way for to do same but selecting more than one?
Thanks for any input,
Hi All,
I'm pretty new with SSIS. I have written some custom component which will read from flat file and write it into database. Between those processes, there are other processes which will analyse and transform the data being transfered. Everytime, I remove a column from upstream component, I have to go through each component to fix up column reference mapping using Invalid Column References Editor. There are lots of clicking involves just to remove a column from upstream component. My package has about 15 components. I am just wondering, is there anyway for us to prevent that editor to pop up, instead fixing invalid column reference programatically in ReInitializeMetadata?
Thanks,
Will
Hi all,
Would anyone know of any references (online or books) that make it easier for experienced Oracle people to Learn SQL Server. The type of things I'd like to know for example are
The environment for SQL server on a PC (e.g. where the
datafiles are, what's the replacement for tnslistener - general architecture info)
Any significant differences that I'd need to know for creating tables and applications, like what do I use instead of varchar2 for example.
that should get me started.

I need to join 2 tables but the join needs to account for 2 seperate columns.
for example:
select
a. type
a. prod_code
a. prod_type
b. division
from table1 a
left join table2 b
on a. prod_code = b. prod_code
and a. prod_type = b. prod_type
The issue is that you may have only the prod_code or prod_type and null value for the other in table1.
Ideally I want it to check for both then if 1 isn't available then it draws the division of the available. having both or one or the other determines the division it falls under.
I have a database of 900+ tables with around 3000 SPs, and views. Manually I reviewed few tables and found that tables are not referenced with FK and I applied few. There are lots of tables and SPs using them in join statement, Is there any way with which I can get each tables missing references, any DMV or other manual script which tells about this?

Hello and thank you for the help in advance.
I know this has to be possible maybe I am just missing somthing.
I am creating a matrix report which will compare year by year quotes to orders The issue is quotes and orders each have their own dataset. I will be pivoting on JobType which is in both datasets and spelled the same. Is there a way to do this or will I have to figure out how to union the tables? If not possible why does it allow you to name the dataset in the expression?
Thanks, Leo
Is there any possibility to create a foreign key references more than one tables.
say for example,
Create table sample1(id int primary key)
Create table sample2(id int primary key)
Create table sample3(
id int primary key,
CONSTRAINT fk1 FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES sample1 (ID),CONSTRAINT fk1 FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES sample2 (ID))
this shows no error while creating, but in the data insertion it shows error..

Is there any way to enforce table references in stored procedures? For Example, we have stored procedures with a ton of different formats, "dbo.table", "table", "db.dbo.table", etc. Can we make it so that for every stored procedure, the reference must be at least "dbo.table"?

I created a new database called "TestReportServer" as mentioned in the installation instruction but I didn't
see (or could select) the option "Create the report server database in SharePoint integrated mode".
How can I select this option? Do I need to remove the reporing services and reinstall it again? Any suggestions?
After creating the database I get the error 'Some or all identity references could not be translated'.
The user I selected is a local administrator and has permission to all groups starting with wss.
I guess the database is not created as a sharepoint integration mode as I can start Server Management Studio
and see the database. Is that a correct assumption?
I hope somebody out there can help as I am strating to bang my head towards my desk right now :-)
Hello:
Need some serious help with this one...
Background:
Am working on completing an ORM that can not only handles CRUD actions -- but that can also updates the structure of a table transparently when the class defs change. Reason for this is that I can't get the SQL scripts that would work for updating a software on SqlServer to be portable to other DBMS systems. Doing it by code, rather than SQL batch has a chance of making cross-platform, updateable, software...
Anyway, because it needs to be cross-DBMS capable, the constraints are that the system used must work for the lowest common denominator....ie, a 'recipe' of steps that will work on all DBMS's.
The Problem:
There might be simpler ways to do this with SqlServer (all ears :-) - just in case I can't make it cross platform right now) but, with simplistic DBMS's (SqlLite, etc) there is no way to ALTER table once formed: one has to COPY the Table to a new TMP name, adding a Column in the process, then delete the original, then rename the TMP to the original name.
This appears possible in SqlServer too --...as long as there are no CASCADE operations.
Truncate table doesn't seem to be the solution, nor drop, as they all seem to trigger a Cascade delete in the Foreign Table.
So -- please correct me if I am wrong here -- it appears that the operations would be
along the lines of:
a) Remove the Foreign Key references
b) Copy the table structure, and make a new temp table, adding the column
c) Copy the data over
d) Add the FK relations, that used to be in the first table, to the new table
e) Delete the original
f) Done?
The questions are:
a) How does one alter a table to REMOVE the Foreign Key References part, if it has no 'name'.
b) Anyone know of a good clean way to get, and save these constraints to reapply them to the new table. Hopefully with some cross platform ADO.NET solution? GetSchema etc appears to me to be very dbms dependant?
c) ANY and all tips on things I might run into later that I have not mentioned, are also greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
