Hi.
I have a table where I need to set some rows to Read only (to protect the rows from being edited). Can I do this with a trigger checking against a column (where dataReadOnly = 1)?
Or is there a better way?
thankyou
Hey all!
Sorry for the less then descriptive post title but I didn't find a better way to describe it. I'm developing an app in the express editions of VB and SQLserver. The application is a task/resource scheduler. The main form will have a datepicker or weekly overview and show all tasks scheduled per day. The problem is, I've got one or more people assigned to tasks and I wonder what's the best way to design this. Personally, I'd go for one Task table, a People table and a table that provides a link between them (several record per task, one for each person assigned linking TaskID and PplID). However, I don't see a nice way of showing this data to the end user, allowing him to edit/add etc on ONE screen.
To fix that the only way I see is just add columns to the Task table for every person with select boxes. This way everything can be done on one simple screen. This obviously does present some future issues.
On top of this, which people are available on a day varies and there should be an option to allow a user to set who is available on a specific day. Which would lead me to my first idea and add another table that would provide this. but then I'm having design issues again for the form.
I'm kinda stuck atm, can anyone shed some light on this. I'm sure there is an elegant way of doing this but I'm failing at finding it.
Thanks in advance,
Johan
Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0. I have a requirement to make all stored procedures Read Only in Enterprise Manager except for the DBA. In other words, any sp in Production can be viewed by anyone in Enterprise Manager, but can only be overwritten or changed by the DBA.
Does anyone know if this is possible and, if so, how do I set it up?
Thanks in advance,
Darrin
is there a way the data gets updated is through the replication only to subscriber ?
other users should only read the data , they shouldn't do any update at subscriber end.
I’ve been trying for a while now (won’t say how long), to get BIDS to read a very simple Excel file.
I’m talking SIMPLE!! No matter what I don, SSIS keeps throwing an error, and of course it doesn’t say what the error is, so I can’t really debug it.
I’ve tried this at least 20x with flat files, and it works perfect each time. I’ve done Data Conversions, Sorting, Union All, and several other Transformations; all work perfect.
Trying to used Excel as a data source, is proving to be a mind numbing experience. Of over 20 different attempts, it hasn’t worked even once. I can make it as simple as you can possibly imagine, and SSIS, refuses to even perform the first step (I’m not even trying to create a table in SQL Server anymore).
I have the Excel file path (very simple)
I have the Excel version (very simple)
I have the Connection Manager (very simple)
I have the Sheet name (very simple)
All I can do is see a preview of the Excel sheet before the process runs. As soon as I het F5, I get an instant error, for no reason whatsoever, and no debugging options,whatsoever.
I have an SSIS package (SQL Server 2005) that gathers statistics (ie total records created, items created, items shipped, etc). I have made a UNION query to get the data (because it has to look at different date fields) that returns the following results:
ID QTY
Created 20
Shipped 30
Received 35
What I what to do is store this data as 1 record like this:
Date Qty_Created Qty_Shipped Qty_Received
11/20/2007 20 30 35
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks
Hello,
I'm a bit new to MS-SQL so i thought maybe you could help me.
This is my prob. I have an Access application that i have upsized to a MS-SQL server. I have a query based on 3 tables: Customers, Companys and Payreminders. When i run this query, i can't add new records or make any changes.
If i only run the query with the tables: companys and payreminders i can add new records and edit them. If i run a query that's based on companys and customers, i can edit and add new records, but when i run the query based on companys and customers i can't add or edit records.
companys, payreminders: Editable
payreminders, companys: Editable
Companys, customers: Non editable
Companys, payreminders, customers: Non editable
Something must go wrong when i use the companys and customers table. Can anybody help or give a suggestion what to do.
Thanks.
I have a table of magazine issues. The table are defined as below:
issueID int Unchecked
name varchar(50) Unchecked
title varchar(100) Checked
description varchar(500) Checked
crntIssue bit Checked
archived bit Checked
navOrder int Checked
dateCreate datetime Checked
And here is what I want. Is there a way when inserting/updating or on the table itself to make sure that there is only one record that is marked as the current issue? The way I have it here in my table, any records can have the current issue (crntIssue) field checked. I only want one crntIssue field checked regardless of how many records or issues are in the table. If there is no way to automatically have SQL Server to manage that then that means I must check all the records before hand before the update/insert query, correct?

HI if I have a recrod in a plain text file , and it has some colums information including FromDate and ThruDates if the date range is over 30 days, Then the record should split and becomes 2 records rather then one.
for example:
if i have MemberID=255 FromDate 07/01/06 and ThruDate = 08/25/06
than
that single record should be saved as two records
like
Record#1 FromDate ThruDate MemberID
1 07/01/06 07/30/06 225
2 08/31/06 08/25/06 225
Well the file is a fixed length file.
On a web page. Page is uploaded.
when the fixed length file is uploaded it converted into the xml file.
After the xml file goes through the validation, it gets ready for the database.
Each field in the fixed length file was a xml node and sent to the database.
Now what I have to check from the sqlManagement studio. Insert a query with the test query as I decribed earlier, and instead of it get to the database it should be splited into two record instead of one and get in the database table. And if dates are in between 30 days, then the recrod go into table with out any other issue.
i attached adventure works in sql server 2008 and it showing as read only ,make it read write or remove read only tag from database.

I have a table full of items that have a "date_updated" field. I'd like this field to be set to GETDATE() whenever a record is updated. I've got this trigger:
CREATE trigger tr_cp_shiptos_u on dbo.cp_shiptos for update as
update cp_shiptos set date_updated = GETDATE()
Problem is, of course, there's no WHERE clause..yet. I don't know how to refer to the record that was updated.... for example:
CREATE trigger tr_cp_shiptos_u on dbo.cp_shiptos for update as
update cp_shiptos set date_updated = GETDATE()
where shipto_id = @THIS_ID
I imagine there's some kind of builtin variable or something like that. How is this done?
Thanks in advance.
Approximately once a month, a client of ours sends us a bunch ofcomma-delimited text files which I have to clean up and then importinto their MS SQL database. All last week, I was using a Cold Fusionscript to upload the cleaned up files and then import the records theycontained into the database, though obviously, the process tookfriggin' forever, and could have been done 500x quicker had I done itdirectly on the server. My SQL knowledge is somewhat limited, however,so I had no choice but to stick to what I know, which is Cold Fusionprogramming.In the process of cleaning up some of these comma-delimited text files,I inadvertently messed up some of the 10-digit zip codes, by applyingthe wrong Excel formula to the ZIP columns. These records were importedinto the database with obviously incorrect zip codes (ie: singledigit). So now, I have to find the best and quickest way possible tocompare these records in the database (that have the single digit zipcodes) with the unmodified data, and to update the zip codes with thecorrect data.I've had no luck setting up a TEXT file as an ODBC datasource, -- soI've ruled that out completely. I've also managed to import theunmodified data into an Access database, and to set it up as a ColdFusion datasource. But it seems this 2nd road I've been traveling downis not the ideal approach either.My question is, -- assuming that I'll be able to import the recordsfrom the Access database into their own table on the SQL server, -- howshould I go about the process of updating these records that have theincorrect zip codes?Here is the specific logic I would need to employ:* Here is a list of records, each of which contains an incorrect1-digit zip code (Database A / Table A)* Here is a much longer list of records (which contains all of therecords from Database A / Table A + thousands more), each of whichcontains a correct 5-digit zip code (Database B / Table B)* Compare both lists of records and run the following query/update:When a record in Database A / Table A has matching "name", "address1",and "address2" values as a record in Database B / Table B -- update therecord in Database B / Table B with the zip code from the matchingrecord in Database A / Table A.Would anyone care to write a sample query for me that I could rundirectly on the SQL server, or at least give me some pointers?The specific field names are as follows:name,address1,address2,city,state,zipThanks in advance!- yvan
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two database files, one .mdf and one .ndf. The creator of these files has marked them readonly. I want to "attach" these files to a new database, but cannot do so because they are read-only. I get this message:

Ok,
I have a table with the following fields:
ID, Type, Name, Date, Description
ID is the PK. Names all have different values, but are predefined... a visual:
ID, Type, Name, Date, Description
1, monday, mon1234,3-3-08, some text
2, monday, mon1234,3-4-08, some text
3, monday, mon2345, 3-5-08, some text
4, monday, mon2345, 3-6-08, some text
Now What i need to do is get the last report for each unique "Name". How would I do that?
When I try to do a Select Distinct, of course, it only gives me those names that only appear once.
Hi,Can you guys see if there's a solution to this problem?I have a database from which I have to read each record and processthat record. New records are being added all the time, so I need to goback and check for new records and process them.However:-- there is no 'identity' column in the database design (so I cannotkeep track of the last record read by use of a numeric variable)-- I am not allowed to update the database (so I cannot flag therecords I have read).My problem is: how can I know which records I have already read andwhich ones I haven't read yet? I don't want to process records twiceand don't want to miss any records.Is there a known solution to this problem? Any ideas?Thanks.

View 1 Replies View Relatedi have a database which get refreshed every day from client's data . and we need to pull heavy data from them every day as reports . so only selects happens on that database.
we do daily population of some table in some other databases from this daily refreshed DB.
will read uncommitted or NOLOCK with select queries to retrieve data faster.
there will be no dirty read as there are NO DML operation in that database so for SELECT which happens concurrently on these tables , will NOLOCK work?

,I am creating a database where each record is required to have a twin record in the database.These is a type a value and a type b value and both must be present for the record to be valid.
Customer_ID, Order_Type, Product_Code
54, a, 00345
54, b, 00356
Is this something that would have to be done programmatically, or is it possible to create a constraint of some sort to ensure this?
I actually work in an organisation and we have to find a solution about the data consistancy in the database. our partners use to send details to the organisation and inserted directly in the database, so we want to create a new database as a buffer database to insert informations from the partners then make an update to the main database. is there a better solution instead of that?

I'm new to ASP.NET (I normally work with Windows Forms) and have installed the Club Website Starter Kit. I created an Administrators role and a user called "admin". When I run the project locally, everything works as it should - I can log in as admin and I can create new users.
I then copied the site to localhost (C:Inetpubwwwroot), but when I run the site from localhost, I can't log in (as admin or any other user); instead I get a message that says, "Your login attempt was not successful. Please try again."
Also, I can't create a new user. When I try, I get the following error:

I figure there must be a simple(?) explanation and solution for this problem, and ideally, some sort of step-by-step procedure that new users to ASP.NET can follow to configure a site - such as one of the starter kits - to work correctly. I can honestly say that trying to get this working has been an extremely frustrating experience.
If someone could help me out, I would really appreciate it. I've been working on this for two days and feeling I have hit the wall.
Thanks in advance.
Hi there,I am getting a real problem with ASP.NET 2.0, all i am trying to do is run a recovert password (using the login controls) and i got the following error.Does anybody know how to fix this? I have tried the SSEUTIL answer here and it didn't work. http://forums.asp.net/909168/ShowPost.aspxI also ensured that Network Services user has READ/WRITE/EXECUTE premissions on the directory below and that each file isn't read only and also that it inherits ACL from the directory which it seems to do..Bit of strange one this, it isn't created (and i am not using) a beta version of VS 2005 Pro... but a full retail version.The PC is the local PC with IIS 5.1 and VS installed... it is the one i am using for developing.. I don't need to copy my files to the IIS directory below as that is where i have created it and open it in VS 2005 from there..I did read that if you use IIS 5.1 then the user should be ASPNET ... but i don't seem to have that use but a Network Services user...Any help or guidance would be really appreciated... i have come to a stop stage and can't get any further..Thanksian

Hi.
I am almost wrapping up a project of my own and I will have the option to restore the database, so dropping the existing one and then running the SQL script to create the database, tables, stored procedures and so on.
My question is, (using .NET 2.0 C#) - what is the best way to resolve the "cannot drop database as it is currently in use" message, or some message of the similar sort?
Even though I specified "USE MASTER" in the commandText string, there will be somewhere, in a situation, where the database will still be in use.
How can I forcefully make it NOT in use, drop it and do other things I like to?
What is the best way?
Many thanks!

Hi!
Do you now if it is possible to make database unavailable for users after business hours and how.
Thank you in advance,

No, I don't need a step-by-step (necessarily). I've been looking at W3Schools tutorial and it says to:
Code:
CREATE TABLE Person
(
LastName varchar,
FirstName varchar,
Address varchar,
Age int
)
But what is that? A text file saved with a .sql extension. Something typed at a command prompt? Is there an SQL interface?
