I have some database tables, and each one of them have a creation_date and modified_date in them. I was trying to figure out a way where when a row in one of these tables is changed using Enterprise Manager (Database -> Tables -> select table -> right click -> select all rows -> change a field in a row inside a table), is there a way apart from triggers, such that the "modified_date" column for that row get changed to 'getdate()' (rather picks up the current datetime).
I have a script that is supposed to run thru 2 joined tables and update a field in the 3rd table. The script works but takes approx. 4 hours to run against 250k records.
UPDATE a SET Con_Mailings = STUFF((SELECT '; ' + c.ListName FROM [server].[xxxxx_MSCRM].[dbo].ListBase c with (nowait) INNER JOIN [server].[xxxxxx_MSCRM].[dbo].[ListMemberBase] b with (nowait) ON b.ListID = c.ListID WHERE b.EntityID = a.TmpContactID FOR XML PATH('')),1,1,'') FROM [xx_Temp].[dbo].[Lyris_CombinedTest] a
I should end up with something like this in the con_mailings field:
I have startdate and enddate. I like startdate to be 4/28/08 12:00:00 and enddate to be 5/4/08 23:59:59. What update statement do i need to run to update table. Currently my table show startdate 2008-04-28 05:00:00.000 enddate 2008-05-04 04:59:59.000.
I like to add a day to this date and also make time to 23:59:59. So end result for this table and recrods will be 2008-11-09 23:59:59 and next row 2008-11-16 23:59:59 so on..... 2008-11-08 23:00:00.000 2008-11-15 23:00:00.000 2008-11-22 23:00:00.000 2008-11-29 23:00:00.000 2008-12-06 23:00:00.000 2008-12-13 23:00:00.000 2008-12-20 23:00:00.000 2008-12-27 23:00:00.000 2009-01-03 23:00:00.000 2009-01-10 23:00:00.000 2009-01-17 23:00:00.000 2009-01-24 23:00:00.000 2009-01-31 23:00:00.000 2009-02-07 23:00:00.000 2009-02-14 23:00:00.000 2009-02-21 23:00:00.000 2009-02-28 23:00:00.000 2009-03-07 23:00:00.000
Link ( GroupID int , MemberID int ) Member ( MemberID int , MemberName varchar(50), GroupID varchar(255) )
The Link table contains the records showing which Member is in which Group. One particular Member can be in multiple Groups and also a particular Group may have multiple Members.
The Member table contains the Member's ID, Member's Name, and a Group ID field (that will contains comma-separated Groups ID, showing in which Groups the particular Member is in).
We have the Link table ready, and the Member table' with first two fields is also ready. What we have to do now is to fill the GroupID field of the Member table, from the Link Table.
For instance,
Read all the GroupID field from the Link table against a MemberID, make a comma-separated string of the GroupID, then update the GroupID field of the corresponding Member in the Member table.
Please help me with a sql query or procedures that will do this job. I am using SQL SERVER 2000.
Hi,I use view to join difference table together for some function. However,when the "real" table fields changed (e.g. add/delete/change field). Theview table still use the "old fields".Therefore everytimes when I change the real table, I also needed open theview table and save it by SQL enterprise manager manually for update theview table field.Can we use a SQL command or other method to update it directly?Regards,Silas
If I have a table with 1 or more Nullable fields and I want to make sure that when an INSERT or UPDATE occurs and one or more of these fields are left to NULL either explicitly or implicitly is there I can set these to non-null values without interfering with the INSERT or UPDATE in as far as the other fields in the table?
EXAMPLE:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MYTABLE( ID NUMERIC(18,0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, FirstName VARCHAR(50) NULL, LastName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
[Code] ....
If an INSERT looks like any of the following what can I do to change the NULL being assigned to DateAdded to a real date, preferable the value of GetDate() at the time of the insert? I've heard of INSTEAD of Triggers but I'm not trying tto over rise the entire INSERT or update just the on (maybe 2) fields that are being left as null or explicitly set to null. The same would apply for any UPDATE where DateModified is not specified or explicitly set to NULL. I would want to change it so that DateModified is not null on any UPDATE.
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded) VALUES('John','Smith',NULL)
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName) VALUES('John','Smith')
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded) SELECT FirstName, LastName, NULL FROM MYOTHERTABLE

Hi. I'm not such an expert in sql and I wanted to update a table's fields only if the value that im going to update it with is not null. How do I do that?
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.

I need create a field to store tax rate. I need only 2 decimal points. I defined the field as decimal, precision=5 and scale=2. Does it mean that it can hold value from 0.00 to 999.99?
Hi, I have a concern about adding a new field to a table with image field - which is huge. Will there be a problem with some databases, where they have a hard time locating data correctly after such a large field? Previously this happened to me, and what was advised to put all the big fields at the end of the table. Thanks.
does anyone know if there is a way, or perhaps a custom toolbox control that is already developed that allows you to drag an entire dataset into a table, instead of pulling everything in field by field...?

I am trying to update a field in a temptable with the count of items in another table. To illustrate, CustomerID=23 and I want the number of occurences in the temp table. Here's the code which DOESN'T work:
INSERT INTO TempTable ( CustomerID, FirstName, LastName, DateAdded, AlbumPicture, LayoutCount ) SELECT Albums.CustomerID, Customers.FirstName, Customers.LastName, DateAdded, AlbumPicture, COUNT(*) FROM Layouts WHERE Layout.customerID = Albums.CustomerID FROM Albums JOIN Customers on (Albums.CustomerID=Customers.CustomerID)
Please take a look at the COUNT line. Here I want to count the occurences of a specific customerid in another table and put in into th LayoutCount field.
SQL server reports "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'FROM'". Any ideas how to achieve this?
