Modifying Existing Table Schemas?
Jul 28, 2006
By default, I constructed my database using the dbo Schema. I have since created new Schemas, and want to change some of the tables from dbo.
Is there a way to change the existing schema of a table without disrupting the data that is inside the table?
For example:
Current: dbo.Products
Desired Change: NewSchemaName.Products
Thanks.

Good morning (afternoon/evening) all.
I am researching a way to render data in a plain text file, with no formatting.
I plan on building out the result set to exactly what I am wanting and just need it to render itself without any formatting logic being taken into consideration.
The end result is to generate a QIF file from a random data set. QIF is just a formatted text file.
Am I making sense?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We are struggling to add an extra column to a Dtsx package. The package essentially compiles data into a table and then exports the data to a series of Spreadsheets. So far I have ended up doing the following: -
-Creating a new Folder for the Spreadsheet Templates, copying the existing spreadsheets into the new Folder and then added the new Column.
-Creating new Connection Managers in the Package to connect to these new templates.
-Adding the column to the various data flow tasks so that the new column is converted and then exported (data type is varchar(30), conversion type is Unicode text stream [DTNTEXT]).
Everything validates when we compile the dtx package. However when we run the package we are getting the following error: -
Started: 5:39:49 PM
Error: 2015-05-12 17:45:39.05
Code: 0xC0202009
Source: Data Flow Task Voluntary Excel [2379]
Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
End Error

My problem is very simple and that is that I'm trying to copy some tables between databases, but these tables are in different schemas.
let's say I have
dbo.tableA
sch1.tableA
sch2.tableA
sch3.tableA
And I just want to copy let's say sch1.tableA to a Different DB.
If I use Transfer SQL Server Object task and select the table and save the package and try to open the task again, all the tables with name TableA will be selected!! it seems like although it does show the schema ( when I am selecting the table manually ) but it doe snot store the schema detail in the tablelist collection property of the task.
Would please recommend any other way to achieve this.
Many Thanks in advance

Hello friends,
I am new to the SQL Server 2005 development.
From last 1 week or so, i have been facing very strange problem with my sql server 2005s database
which is configured and set on the hosting web server. Right now for managing my sql server 2005 database,
i am using an web based Control Panel developed by my hosting company.
Problem i am facing is that, whenever i try to modify (i.e. add new columns) tables in the database,
it gives me error saying that,
"There is already an object named 'PK_xxx_Temp' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider".
where xxx is the table name.
I have done quite a bit research on the problem and have also searched on the net for solution but still
the problem persist.
Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciated.

I am curious why my stored procedures are parsing properly when you do not reference a table with its schema. The stored procs then fail when you run them.
It seems that the parser does not validate that a tables schema is missing.
This is an example stored procedure against the Person.Address table in the Adventureworks database. It will execute fine if I change the FROM clause to Person.Address.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Address_Load]
@AddressID [int]
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @intError int
BEGIN TRY
SELECT A.[AddressID]
, A.[AddressLine1]
, A.[AddressLine2]
, A.[City]
, A.[StateProvinceID]
, A.[PostalCode]
FROM [Address] A
WHERE A.[AddressID] = @AddressID
IF @@ROWCOUNT = 0
BEGIN
RAISERROR('Record not found', 16, 1) -- Record not found.
END
-- Return success
RETURN 0
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
SET @intError = ERROR_NUMBER();
-- Log error here
RETURN @intError;
END CATCH
END
The stored proc parses fine and gets saved to the database but when executing it I get the following
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Address_Load, Line 10
Invalid object name 'Address'.
Is there any way to change this so the parsing will generate an error and not allow this into the database?
Thanks,
Cory

Hi,
I have the following scenario: N identical Databases (corresponding to different Fiscal Years, with names <Company Name>.<YEAR>). We want to consolidate the N DBs to a New Datawarehouse.
In SSIS we have designed a Dataflow that reads through a OLE DB Source (Connected to one of the N Databases) and maps to a OLE DB Destination (Connected to the NEW DB).
The question is, how we loop in SSIS through the N identical Connections, so to repeatedly execute the designed Dataflow, each time with a different Connection?
Thanks in Advance,

I have some rather large TSQL scripts I'd like to schedule as jobs. Unfortunately, the SysJobSteps table in the MSDB Database is limited to 3200 characters while I need it to be 5000. Does anyone know if it's possible to increase the size of this to allow for larger TSQL scripts?
Thanks!

I have two tables, a data table (MainTable) that contains a user initials and other empty rows and then i have a user table.
I also have an inner join view with the initials from both tables as the joining field.
I want the users to be able to modify the data table (MainTable) but also display the users name field.
here is the sql of the view:
SELECT dbo.MainTable.DateCreated, dbo.InitialsListing.Initials, dbo.MainTable.CustomerNumber, dbo.InitialsListing.AdvocateName,
dbo.MainTable.Supervisor, dbo.MainTable.Complete, dbo.MainTable.FirstNotify, dbo.MainTable.SecondNotify, dbo.MainTable.ThirdNotify,
dbo.MainTable.AdvocateInitials
FROM dbo.InitialsListing INNER JOIN
dbo.MainTable ON dbo.InitialsListing.Initials = dbo.MainTable.AdvocateInitials

I have a field called "assescode9" in a table called "Assessment" which has the length of "6" and I want to change this length to 7 or 8 in SQL. I tried right click on the field and modify but when I want to save it says you can not save the changes because it requires a Drop table and recreate or you do not have an option enabled to recreate the table, how do I do this?
I have never done dropping a table and recreate it?

Hi There,
I am trying to add a new field to a table using enterprise manager by right clicking on the table, choosing design table and adding the new field/column. But when I choose save changes, I receive an error message:
------------------------------------------------------------
Errors were encountered during the save process. Some of the database objects were not saved.
'Comments' Table
-Unable to modify table
ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL SERVER] ...
... Cannot drop the table 'dbo.Comments' because it is being used for replication
-----------------------------------------------------------
If it helps I am trying to add a binary (bit) field and a text field of 50 characters. I think the replication it refers to is a merge replication (not sure though is there a way i can find out in EM?)
I have read some articles which refer to this problem and suggest using stored procedures but I really dont know how to do that, having never used them before. I need an idiots guide please!
Let me know if I need to provide more info. Thanks.

Hi there,
Completely new to the world of databases. I'm a designer who works primarily in Flash. In any case, I'm trying to manage an application that uses MS SQL and learn about the wonderful world of databases.
Ok, I modified a table (e.g. I added a column called "Rate") that had associated views (created by another developer). Noticed that my application went a little wonky as some of my variables within my app took on the value of the data in the "Rate" column. I checked one of the views and noticed that a column within the view (e.g. TutorID) was assuming the values in the "Rate" column. Note: The column TutorID had been blank before the change to the table. I'm completely lost as to why this is happening. Do I need to rebuild the view? Can I just reset the original view?
Thanks.
Oh yeah, I'm using SQL4X Manager J from Mac Guru (if that helps).

Greetings,
I have two SQL Server tables on the same server and in the same database. I'll call them table A and table B. They have identical schemas. I need to insert all rows in table A into table B. (Don't laugh - this is just for testing and long run the tables will reside on different servers.)
Can someone please tell me the correct task to use for this and the connection type I need for both the source and destination?
Thanks,

any ideas on how i could do this easily?

Hello,
I'd like to create a temporary table with the same schema as an exiting table. How can I do this without hard coding the column definitions into the temporary table definition?
I'd like to do something like:
CREATE TABLE #tempTable LIKE anotherTable
..instead of...
CREATE TABLE #tempTable (id INT PRIMARY KEY, created DATETIME NULL etc...
I'm sure there must be a simple way to do this!
Many thanks,
Ben S

I am using the DTS wizard and having problems importing excel into an existing table.
Problem is that various column in excel are defined as double in the wizard but in my db table it is defined as an integer.
How do I get around this issue so the data types in excel can match up accordingly to my defined data type in my db table?
The wizard does a bad job of guessing the correct data type.
I have heard of using a staging table to import from excel and using that as my source to import into my existing table.

I want to move an existing table from another.
Example
B.mdf dbo.xx to C.mdf dbo.xx
B.mdf dbo.xx has records - I created a script and install the script for C.mdf dbo.xx
C.mdf dbo.xx is empty -
All I need now is to populate the records from B.mdf dbo.xx to the empty C.mdf dbo.xx
I was telling I could do a cut and paste to copy the dbo.xx
Thank you in advance.

Hi all,I have an existing table(Several actually) that I want to add a columnor two or three. I need to have, I think, at least two columns. Onefor Created date and believe this is a no brainer in that I just addthe column and set the default to getdate(). Two, for tracking amodified date of the row of data. I want to keep it simple. What do Ido to track the modify date of a row in SQL Server 2005? Anytime anydata changes on a row update the update column? Is a trigger the onlyway to accomplish this task?Another column could be used to track who changed it. Is there a neatway to determine username, machine name, MAC address or any othermethod? I pretty wide open on this one as I am not sure what I want touse here.TIA!!!

How do you alter the table to use the new partition (I know ALTER TABLE is in there but BOL doesn't give a valid example with the move option)? I can create the partition but I want to apply it to an existing table with no partition?
