If possible, I would like to create a view using two different tables, but with the fields merged (ie. create one table from two tables). The table structures are pretty much the same. Can you do this from a singe SQL statement? Any ideas? My only alternative is creating a temp file that inserts records from both tables, but I want to avoid doing that.
View 6 RepliesHow can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu".
can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.
What is the best way to go about merging the results of two fields inthe same table?I have two different fields that hold lists of names, some of themidentical, some different. From those I'd like to generate a mergedlist with all the distinct names.For example:Field1 contains: Jack, Joe, Jim, PaulField2 contains: Peter, Paul, Joe, JimThe result should be: Jack, Joe, Jim, Peter, Paul

I have two tables (ship2005 and ship2006) all with same structure
Sold_to
Week
Year
Units
Dollars
Style
I have to merge them together, and add some other columns from other tables
Custmstr (director) and stylemstr (style) based on Sold_to
In the format so I’m able to see 2005 week, 2006 week, 2005 unit, 2006 unit, 2005 dollars, 2006 dollars and so on.
This one is working, but forever…
where Custmstr.Sold_to *= ship2005.Sold_to
and Custmstr.Sold_to *= ship2006.Sold_To
and stylmstr.style_num *= ship2005.style_number
and stylmstr.style_num *= ship2006.style_number
And another thing: how can I populate the Year column for both?
Thank you very much

Hi guys! I'm trying to figure out how to join 3 tables, but I can't seem to find a solution. What I want to do is to put table 1, table 2 and table 3 into table_merged.
table_merged = table 1 + table 2 + table 3
Is it possible to merge tables even if they have different fields?
Please help.

I am trying to update values in two tables (approx 1-2 million records).
I have decided to use a MERGE statement, however have been unsuccessful to do so.
Below is an example of the statement.
The error is receive is "Incorrect syntax near '('." right after the MERGE line.
Is it not possible to use this syntax ?
Example:
[CODE]
MERGE
( SELECT a.id, b.id2
FROM TableA A
JOIN TableB B
[Code]....
I have two totally different tables with completely different data fields. Also, there is no common relationship between these two tables. However, I want to pick few data fields from the each table and merge into a new table! Is this even possible?

Hi,I hope this is the right place to ask this question. If it is not,please let me know a more appropriate place.I have two tables.CREATE TABLE tblEmployees(EmployeeID int identity NOT NULL,LastName varchar(50) NULL,FirstName varchar(50) NULL,);CREATE TABLE tlkpDept(DeptID char(5) NULL,Name char(10) NULL,LongName char(50) NULL);Now I want to create a view called AssignedTo. [The application I'mdoing, will track the status of our customer requests. Each requestcan be assigned to either an individual employee or an entiredepartment]I want the view to have two columns, ID and LongName. ID should beeither the DeptID or the EmployeeID. The LongName column should beeither the LongName or the FirstName + LastName.I'm not even sure how to begin to write such a complex SQL.EnterpriseManager is being less than helpful too.Can anyone help?Thanks in advance.-Tom

For performance reasons i want to move the Merge Replication tables in a DB of mine (mainly MSMerge_Tomestone and MSMerge_Contents) to a seperate filegroup ... it's a heavy transactional DB and the index fragamentation rate is quite phenominal!
I need to take certain items of data from four different tables and out them into one table.
Unfortunately my source data's version of SQL does not support the LEFT JOIN keyword which has left me with a bit of a problem.
I saw the merge join in SSIS and used it to get data from two of the tables and stick them in the destination and it all worked fine.
That got me thinking, is it possible to create a second merge join transformation within the same data flow task for the remaining two tables and then join the output of both the merge joins to give me the data I need from all four tables in one output?
Hi all,
I'm not sure how easy of a task this is, or how to go about it, so I thought I'd ask here. I am doing a major overhaul to my site and am re-programming the backend which involves re-formatting my tables, table names etc.
What I want to do is set up a new table in the format I want for the new site, but still be able to have the live data that is being submitted to the site now, be entered into the new table so that I don't have to shut down the site for days to transfer and reformat data. Example
CURRENT SITE
Table 1
Field1: Name
Field2: Address
NEW SITE
Table 1
Field1: Name
Field2: myAddress
Field3: City
I want to be able to somehow map the two together so that when data is entered into the Name field on the current site, that same name is also inserted into the new site table as well. Mapping like this:
(current site)Name -> (new site)Name
(current site)Address -> (new site)myAddress
The city field would be left unaffected as that data would only be entered once the new site is up and running.
I know I could do this from a stored procedure on the exiting site or by re-writting all of my SQL to insert into both tables, but right now all of the SQL is hardcoded into the pages and I have A LOT of pages. Is there a way to map the tables together from within SQL Server?
Cheers,
Jeff
Hi All,
I need to get the names of tables and fields (or atleast the fields) from a database. Is there a query I can use that will return what all the db's tables and those tables fields are?
Thanks

Hi,
I have a database with approx 95 tables. I would like to get a printout of each table, the fields contained therein and the field type
(i.e the information displayed when rightclicking a table in Enterprise Manager and selecting Properties).
I have tried to use the diagram function but due to the large number of tables the diagram is very complex and would have to be printed out on a huge sheet of paper to make it legible. I have also looked at the SP_HELP stored procedure but can't seem to get the syntax correct to display properties on all tables (info on one table is no problem).
Any ideas ?
Thanks,

I am working with the article that MAK wrote on SecurityLogs http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3515886
I have completed this, but I have made some changes to the database (for normalization to 3NF purposes). I now have problems with a query.
I am trying to "Insert a new record in a table if it does not already exist in the table". To try to clarify I perform the following query:
INSERT INTO Tmp_Event
SELECT DISTINCT EventID, EventType, EventTypeName from Tmp
Which gives me the Tmp_Event table consisting of EventID's etc. (no duplicates). What I then want to do, is compare the 'Tmp_event' table and an already existing 'Event' table. These two tables are in fact identical. I would like to insert any records from 'Tmp_Event' into 'Event' if they do not already exist in 'Event'.
This query gives me all records that do not exist in 'Event'
SELECT EventID, EventType, EventTYpeName from Tmp_Event
WHERE EventID NOT IN (SELECT EventID from Event)
How can I change this query into performing an INSERT INTO Event as well?
Hope this makes sense :)

I also want that if one column for a table exists; the other columns should be created rather than it quits.
Howdy!
For example, I have 2 tables that have very similar fields
Table 1 Table 2
ShipRpt ShipRpt
invoice invoice
total sold total sold
Is it possible to compare each of these fields and return any record that has non matching data? I would join the tables on the shipping report or invoice and only compare the total sold field. If the invoices match and the total sold is different in each table, can I just return the 1 record?

When I look into it, one of my MSSQL tables will be missinga few fields. There is nothing in any of my code that sends an ALTERTABLE command or any other command that affects table structure. Thesedeletions of fields is totally random.The most recent example was with a table called FreeTeacherSubs.

I have two temp. tables. I am trying to show the agents how makes the sales and the ones how didnt make sales based on the time that they clock in. One table is called #sales which has only the agents that make sales and other tables is #hours which has both agents that do not make sale. the problem is that I can not get both agents to show on my report. I tried different ways but I could not. #sales table uses (select statement from AmountStats table that stores only the agents who make sale). #hours table uses different tables to store all gents who makes sale and ones that are not making sale.Â
declare
@start datetime,
@end datetime,
@campaignId uniqueidentifier,
@campaignName varchar(250),
@segment varchar(50)
set @start = '2015-10-07'
set @end = '2015-10-20'
[code]....
how to merge these two columns from #sales and #hours tables without duplication.
I feel sure that this is a very naive question, but it is freeky me out that I can solve it. With SQL server what is the easiest way to make a field other than the Primary key unique?Would appreciate help with this. ThanksPaul
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I have a fairly generic question regarding database design.
I am working on my first database using SQL Express.
I am testing the database by inserting records into the pre defined tables.
Sometimes I forget to input text into a non null field. When
this happens it displays an error and then skips a few rows
which makes my row numbering messy. For example say I have
Row 1, Row 2 Row 3 all nicely formatted but on Row 4 I make a mistake
this row then disapears and their is gap between 3 and 5 where 4 was.
Although I am just testing, I was wondering what happens in a real
scenario if an inexperienced data input person makes a few mistakes it
makes the database numbering systems look bad. In this case
is it common to make most fields NULL to allow for admin errors??
Can I add a description to a table or field? The way access gives you to add a description to a field.
Thanks!
As part of a project documentation I want to list out the fields of all the tables to say Excel to plug in a description of the field and other notes.
Is there a tool in EM that would facilitate? Or, is there a utility that would work or a SQL script? Any recommendations is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter

Question.I have a new table that I am adding to a script that I wrote. Thistable has 3 fields, the first 2 fields are used in the on statement asbeing = other fields in the script.The first field always has data in it, but the 2nd field is sometimesnull.So my problem is if both fields have data in them and they both matchto the data in the fields that I am linking them to, then it returnsthe 3rd field without a problem. However if the 2nd field is null thenit is returning a null for the 3rd field. I have checked and the fieldthat I am linking to is null also.So if I haveselect t1.field1, t1.field2, t2.field1, t2.field2, t2.field3from table1 t1join table2 t2on t1.field1=t2.field1 and t1.field2=t2.field2with 2 records in each tabletable1: record1: data, datarecord2: data, nulltable2: record1: data,data,datarecord2: data,null,datawhat I get from the script isrecord1: data, data,data,data,datarecord2: data,null,data,null,nullI would expectrecord2: data,null,data,null,dataI hope this makes sense, I didn't want to post the entire actual scriptas it is about 150 lines long.Thanks in advance.
