It Is Possible To Store A Table As A Column Field?
Apr 17, 2008
Hello,
In my application, I have a master table that stores information about some other user tables. These other tables are all of different types, that is, the number and type of columns need not match across the user tables.
From the application perspective, logically each of these user tables is nothing but a column field within the master table.
I have seen references about "table" data type in SQL Server. It is possible to create a table that actually has a table data type as its field?
Hi All,I am looking for a store procedure or any alternate method which save my html file(s) text (with or without tags) in my table column automatically when I upload my html file to my file system (local hard drive).any help will be appreciate.Thanks in advance.
I'd like to create a table that will store different order items. Several order items make up one single order. Order items can have 0 or more children (max depth will never be deeper than one). Order items can have up to 150 attributes/values. The way I think this should be done is using XML column instead of the EAV type of model. My table structure currently looks like this:
* child_order_item_id (PK) * parent_order_item_id (FK to child_order_item_id) * order_id (FK to Order table) * product_id (FK to Product table) * price * attribute_XML
How my attribute_XML should look like or how to validate the xml.
I have created NONCLUSTERED index on table but my report is taking more time that's why i created columnstore NONCLUSTERED index on the same table but i have one query, if any table have row and column level index(same columns in index) . Which index query will consider.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[FactInternetSales] ( [ProductKey] int NOT NULL , [OrderDateKey] int NOT NULL , [CustomerKey] int NOT NULL , [PromotionKey] int NOT NULL
I have 2 tables: Order(ID, Quantity) and Product(ID,Name, Price) and I want to add a calculated field in Order table based on the price column in the Product table. How do i do that?

In my application I must store over 16000 character in a sql table field . When I split into more than 1 field it gives "unclosed quotation mark" message. How can I store over 16000 characters to sql table field (only one field) with language specific characters?
After the staging_temp data gets inserted into main table.my probelm is to handle such a file where number of columns are more than the actual table.
If you see the sample rows there are 4 column separated by "¯".but actual I am having only 3 columns in my main table.so how can I get only first 3 column from the satging_temp table.

does anyone know a way, using native SQL, to store a result of a query in an image field of a certain table.
The case is we have a selfmade replication to communicate with several SQL servers in stores, this replication is over a telephone line. So we collect all the data using SQL statements and store them in a separate table as an image field. This is done know through a Delphi application that streams the resultset to a image field.

I am creating a document management systems using asp. I have beenresearching the different ways of handling the documents such as using thefile system and storing the path in the db, and actually storing thedocument in the db. I like the idea of storing it in the database muchbetter because I can allow users to manage documents themselves (I alreadyhave the code in place to do it if I decide), having a central system withthe ability to add my own document properties by adding fields to the table,security, and backups. I have found that most think it is better to storethe path due to performance issues and the rate the db can grow. I havelooked at our current system in access and we have a total of 4400 documents(of which probably 25% are in the database but don't actually exist anymorein the file system, one hangup about the file system) since 1988. Thiscomes to about 300 documents added each year. The other thing is the issuewith the size of the db. I don't see a whole lot of difference with thisissue because it is going to take up space in your file system too, althoughthe file system may be more efficient at storing them. I would say that 95%of our docs are under 1 mb in size and done in ms word.The last thing is using full-text search capabilities in SQL Server. I needto be able to search the contents of the field.Is there other issues around storing documents in the db to consider besidesthe above?
Hi guys, I need to get a column with the sum of the field "SUF" from table "JurnalTransMoves_1" when that field ("SUF") is ordered by the field "REFERENCE" from table "Stock", and Show the value only once.
The desired result should by something like:
Stock.REFERENCE JurnalTransMoves.SUF SUM(JurnalTransMoves.SUF) Group By Stock.REFERENCE
5752 10 60
5752 20
5752 30
5753 400 3000
5753 500
5753 600
5753 700
5753 800
5754 7 15
5754 8
Is there any chance to do that? Thanks in advance, Aldo.

Basically i make use of FormView in Web Developer Express Edition to create and store information to the database .... what i want to do further is to capture the value within the primary key of the newly created recordset that I set it become auto increament .....this value would be stored within a session string in global condition that allowed any page able to access it .....
Hi - I'm using Session variables to store information (sort of webshop).
The sessions are a mix of the usual straightforward strings, wich are no problem - but I also have a DataTable which I store in a session variable, and I also have an array, which I store in a session variable eg. session("day")(x) where x is the item in the array.
I want to give my users the ability to store the items they've selected in my database, but have no idea of what type of field I should use for the datatable and array session variable. Should I use a TEXT field, or is there another more appropriate one'?
The problem field is of type ntext, and the length is 16. We've tried changing it to varchar of length of 8000, and this didn't help either. Text datatype didn't work either.When the user pastes a word document or enters more than 11 lines of text, the field in the database goes plank.Here's the subroutine for the Insert. We will change it to a SPROC, but not in the very near future:'Build the Update StringDim strSQLWPSave As StringDim strRQW As String = Request.QueryString("WPPID")Dim strTO As String = TO.Text.ToString()Dim strWS As String = WkScope.Text.ToString()Dim strSD As String = StartDate.Text.ToString()Dim strED As String = EndDate.Text.ToString()Dim strAss As String = Assump.Text.ToString()Dim strBOE As String = BOE.Text.ToString()Dim strConf As String = ConfRat.Text.ToString()Dim str76 As String = Combo76.SelectedItem.Value.ToString()Dim strRDB As String = RevDrivenBy.Text.ToString()Dim strSigComm As String = SigComments.Text.ToString()strSQLWPSave = "Update WP_General_Info SET "strSQLWPSave &= "[TO] = '" & strTO & "', [WkScope] = '" & strWS & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "[Start Date] = '" & strSD & "', [End Date] = '" & strED & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "Assump = '" & strAss & "', BOE = '" & strBOE & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "[ConfRat] = '" & strConf & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "[WPMgrConf] = '" & str76 & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "[Rev Driven By] = '" & strRDB & "', "strSQLWPSave &= "[SigComments] = '" & strSigComm & "' "strSQLWPSave &= "WHERE WP_PId= '" & strRQW & "' "sCon1.Open()Dim cmdSave As New SqlCommand(strSQLWPSave, sCon1)'Try to open DB and execute UpdateTry'cmdDGB.ExecuteNonQuery()Dim NumberUpdated As IntegerNumberUpdated = cmdSave.ExecuteNonQuery'lblStatus.Text = NumberUpdated.ToString'lblStatus.Text &= " Record(s) Updated."Catch ex As ExceptionlblStatus.Text = "2323 Error Updating WP_G_I: "lblStatus.Text &= ex.MessageFinally'If Not (conDGB Is Nothing) Then' conDGB.Close()'End IfEnd TrysCon1.Close() I'm guessing I need to go the route of changing the data type to an image in order to allow users to to copy/paste from word documents.

hi can anyone tell how to use the image field and add an image in a database. i'm using visual studio web developer express edition 2008 and i want people who visit my website to be able to see the table and the images associated with some of the rows in the table

I am having issues trying to write a query that would provide me the unique GUID numbers associated with a distinct PID if the unique GUID's > 1. To summarize, I need a query that just shows which PID's have more than one unique GUID. A PID could have multiple GUID's that are the same, I'm looking for the PID's that have multiple GUID's that are different/unique.
I am transferring data from msaccess to sql2005 using foreach loop. I have a table called Students and a column in it called State.
I want to store the value of the State in a variable in the foreach loop. I am using Dataflowtask to transfer rows from access to sql. what component can i use inside dft to store the value of State in a variable.
I need to write the countryid of table 2 to the field countryid in table1 using the criteria of the correspoinding country name table 2 to country of table 1 if it write countryid else 0..
Hi, I have one table (PermProportionalCosting) that contains employeecode, costcentre and proportionpercentage. An employee may have two or more records in this table, indicating that their salary has been split across multiple costcentres.
Another table (Employee) contains a default costcentre for each employee.
Another table (TransActualHistoricalMaster) contains the hours paid to each employee for each pay period.
My query so far selects all employees and the total hours worked from the TransMaster table, and then selects the costcentre and proportionpercentage from the PermProportionalCosting table. Multiple lines are created for all employees in the PermProportionalCosting table, with each line indicating the proportionpercentage and associated costcentre.
This is my query so far:
SELECT TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode, Employee.PreferredName, Employee.LastName, CostCentre.Description, PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode,PermanentProportionalCosting.PercentageSplit, TransActualHistoricalMaster.OrdHours FROM TransActualHistoricalMaster INNER JOIN Employee ON TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode = Employee.EmployeeCode INNER JOIN CostCentre ON Employee.CostCentreCode = CostCentre.CostCentreCode FULL OUTER JOIN PermanentProportionalCosting ON TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode = PermanentProportionalCosting.EmployeeCode GROUP BY TransActualHistoricalMaster.EmployeeCode, Employee.PreferredName, Employee.LastName, CostCentre.Description, PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode, PermanentProportionalCosting.PercentageSplit, TransActualHistoricalMaster.OrdHours
This next bit is what I am unsure of.
I would like the CostCentre field from the Employee table to go into the PermanentProportionalCosting.CostCentreCode column where the employee doesn't have a record in the PermanentProportionalCosting table. In the above query, there is a null value for each employee that doesn't have a record in the PermanentProportionalCosting table, so I would like my query to replace the null value with the costcentre from the Employee table.
Is it possible to use a stored procedure to fill the default value of a column when i'm building the db? i mean if i can use a stored procedure for the "colum property": "default value or bnding" if yes how can i do it?
As part of auditing of our application, I want to write the values of all column in one row out to an audit table both before and after an update to see what the changes were.
I know I can SELECT * FROM tableName FOR XML AUTO to generate a single XML 'column', but I cannot figure out how to capture that output and store it.
According to MS, you cannot use FOR XML in a subselect, or fill a TEXT variable with the results of such (which, IMHO really diminishes the usefulness).
I want to stream out the results of one entire row and store that in ONE column of an audit table. XML seems like the easiest way if not for this limitation.
We have a table with 10 columns each column is of datatype int and can accept nulls, when I do a save is it better to have 0 inserted in to the column or just insert null?
I would like to is there any way we can store mathematical equations, that can be typed using equations 3.0, in sql server database as a column. What would be the datatype for the same.
