my query is that in my database i've a table say Tb1 and another table called Tb2.

similarly in TB2 there is a filed called productID (the data is for example "01")
now how can i create a field in another table say TB3 with a field called UserID and the data should be like the companyID from TB1 + productID from Tb2. The data should come like this for example " 001-01 ".
Hi Guys,
What is the equivalent of Describe table of Oracle in SQL server.
I want to see the table fields for a table in SQL server any command?????
TIA
i m working on this query that....." Using Oracle command desc table_name to display the charecterstics of the collection table."
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am more familiar with writing SQL for Oracle than MS SQL Server. Within Oracle there is a simple command, 'Describe', which actually shows the data types, and whether or not an attribute accepts NULLS.
MS SQL Server does appear to support such a command, however I am looking for a way to describe the attributes of tables nonetheless.
In ORACLE, I can use DESCRIBE PS_JOB to see the columns for that record. What is the SQL-Server equivalent?
TIA,
Joe

Oracle has a similar function, DESC, to diplay the table structure. Can't figure it out in SQL Server.

Hi to All,
I want to know a query by which i can get the whole structure of my DataBase -
eg. it should give me all table names and structure which exists in this particular database .....
Thanks
Hi,
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.)
Good Morning
Has anyone successfully used cherry's oledb provider for MYSQL to create a linked server from MS SQLserver 2005 to a Linux red hat platform running MYSQL.
I can not get it to work.
I've created a UDL which tests fine. it looks like this
[oledb]
; Everything after this line is an OLE DB initstring
Provider=OleMySql.MySqlSource.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=testuser;
Data Source=databridge;Location="";Mode=Read;Trace="""""""""""""""""""""""""""""";

Can any on help me convert this to corrrect syntax for sql stored procedure
sp_addlinkedserver
I've tried this below but it does not work I just get an error saying it can not create an instance of OleMySql.MySqlSource.
I used SQL server management studio to create the linked server then just scripted this out below.
I seem to be missing the user ID, but don't know where to put it in.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
Hello,I'd noticed when looking at the prices of hosting ASP websites that it was much cheaper if you useda mysql database instead of mssql so this is the way that I coded everything. I've been using the logincontrol too though so does this mean... 1) that I *need* a mssql database?2) that this database will take up my 1 allocated mssql database with the webhost?3) can I use mysql in the same website; it seems to be working ok with the developer server... Many thanks folks,Adam

I'm getting an error when I try and run in, but I can't see what it is!
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'transaction'.
The code has been generated as mysql, and I am attempting to change it to SQL.
Thank you!

Hello all,
I spent the last two days trying to find an application that can export a mySQL database into msSQL syntax so that I can then use that to just create my msSQL database. I have had no such luck, though I could find a bunch to do msSQL to mySQL.
Please let me know if anyone has one or knows of one that works because I really do not want to hand port my 70 table database from mySQL to msSQL
Thanks in advance,
Anthony F Greco
i have dumped a mysql database to my my documents folder on my server, how can i convert this to a mssql database.
the database came from a site that was in php and of course using mysql, the database has all the users logon information and other information in there personal profile.
i would like to convert this to a mssql database and connect it to the new site i am doing in .net/C#
Hi, I've been coding in C#/ASP.NET for a little while now, but I've only ever used MS SQL.I'm starting a new project at work soon, and our host provides free MySQL databases but charges for MS SQL databases.
What are the pros/cons for each of these databases, and how much conversion would be required in an existing C#/ASP.NET application if I wanted to change from MS SQL to MySQL? I assume the syntax/commands to operate a C# app with MS SQL are different to the ones required to communicate with a MySQL database?
I'll probably stick with MS SQL because it's what I know, but I'd like to get familiar with MySQL as it might come in handy one day.Thanks, any information is greatly appreciated.

Hi
I am a newbee to both php and MySQL.
I was wondering if I could get some assiatance on a matter:
I have a userdatabase in flatfile format. The user info is divided into many files:
First the main file where all the usernames are listed in one column. Then one separeate file for each user, named [username].dat containing their userinfo with encrypted password.
Is there a way I can import all these files (almost 300 of them) into a single MySQL table? If so, could someone please explain this to me in easy terms? Thanks.
