I have an existing table called OrderHeader with a column called ID. The ID column is currently set as an INT. I want to run a script to modify that column to be an IDENTIY. I've tried the following:
ALTER TABLE OrderHeader ALTER COLUMN [ID] INT IDENTITY
but this does not work.
Any idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks!

Hi All,
Is there a way by which we can modify the width of a column of a table which is being replicated without touching the ongoing transactional replication? This is for MSSQL2000 Transactional Replication.
I know (and successfully tried) that we can add a column to a table and that gets propaged to the replicate database and indeed the added column gets reflected there. How to add a column? sp_repaddcolumn or Right Click on the Publication-Properties and it shows a button to Add a Column.
This is what I have tried for modifying the width of a column of a table participating in Transactional Replication from varchar(10) to varchar(100)
MH (source) -> MH1 (Replicate)
The column “col1” had width of varchar(10) and this was altered to varchar(100).
insert into MH..test_mh values(4,'abcdeabcdefff')
select * from MH1..test_mh
exec sp_dropsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2', @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
exec sp_droparticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh'
go
alter table test_mh alter column col2 varchar(100) null OR
MH1..sp_help test_mh
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @source_table = N'test_mh'
go
exec sp_addsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2' , @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
Needless to say, help would be apreciated -:)

However, adding a column was possible.
At present I have a logic implemented like below code example where I can get a combination of columns cid and ani in 'config' table to which I have to map columns cid and ani present in my 'current' table.
Now, a new column pid is added to both 'config' and 'current' tables, like
alter table config add pid integerÂ
alter table current add pid integer
Now I can have data in a combination of cid and ani (where pid can be NULL) or cid and pid (where ani can be NULL) or a row where all cid, ani and pid can have values. In this scenario, how should I make the changes in the current implementation given below?
create table current (cid integer, ani integer, resetdate datetime, threshold integer)
create table config (cid integer, ani integer, resetdate datetime, threshold integer )
SELECT cid, ani from
(
SELECT A.cid,
A.ani,
CASE WHEN C.cid is null then B.resetdate ELSE C.resetdate END AS resetdate,
[Code] ....
I'm in the process of converting a rather huge VSAM database into a set of SQL tables.
I am using the same data names from the mainframe (like XDB-NAME to RDB-NAME).
I load the files using Import Export Data and it makes the tables with such column names as col001, col002, col003, etc... and always sets the data types to varchr(255).
And I have to cut and paste the data names from the manframe side to the server side (and the data types to.)
So, is there an easier way to do this? Or am I doomed to cut-n-paste my days away...
Thanks for any help.

I have a query that I am working on that involves 2 tables. The query below is working correctly and bringing back the desired results, except I want to add 1 more column of data, and I'm not exactly sure how to write it.
What I want to add is the following data.
For each row that is brought back we want to have the COUNT(*) of users who joined the website (tbluserdetails) where their tbluserdteails.date is > the tblreferemails.referDate
Effectively we are attempting to track how well the "tell a friend" via email feature works, and converts to other joined members.
Any assistance is much appreciated!!

I probably know that I don't want to do this, but I have an odd case.
I have a database with a bunch of stored procedures and functions. 128 of them reference a different database than the one they're in. For testing puposes, I need to temporarily re-point these functions and procedures to a different database.
I suspect the answer will be a resounding 'No', but I was wondering if it was possible to somehow run a query against syscomments where I could update all of those objects with the temporary database name rather than edit each and every one of them. Conceptually, it would just be an UPDATE using REPLACE. Pretty comfortable with that, but I'm always very reluctant to mess with stuff like that.
I'll probably still just do it through QA, but I was wondering if it's possible to do something like that and thought it might be an interesting topic for discussion.
Thanks,

Hello ,
I want to drop a table from a publication , so that i can copy some data from another server . After the copy , i want to add the article or the table back again to the publication without making any changes to the subscribers configuration .
Is it really possible on SQL 7.0 ? Right now it does not allow me to copy the data to the published table or even drop the article (table) and it says that the article is published for replication and cannot be dropped or modified .
The table is configured for transactional replication .
I will have to drop the entire publication and create all the subcribers again .
Any help in this regard please .

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,

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.
I have an asp page that currently is creating a database and a userlogin for that database. After everything successfully (I thought)executed, I tried to change my connection properties for the serverand then login as this new user. It wouldn't allow me to, so I loggedback in as the administrator and looked at the properties for the newlogin. On the general tab, it had the user's default databasespecified as the new database that I had created in the asp page, butwhen I went to the database access tab, the database was not selected.So, I'm not sure how to set that in my script. I've done somesearching in BOL, but I can't figure it out. Also, if there's a wayto do this in a query, or stored procedure, will it also specify whattype of role the user has (public, db_owner, etc.)? Thanks.

I'm building a custom SSIS data flow component and I create myself input and output columns from a custom property of my pipeline component. That's why I don't want the user to modify the name of the input and output columns by using the advanced editor.

Hello,
I am working with an .xml file that I want to break up into various tables. A couple of fields in my xml file include html tags (<p> tags specifically). The generated xsd file thinks these are nested xml tags and creates a "P" table for the information contained. Is there a way I can modify the generated xsd within the designer? Or is the only way to fix this is to manually modify the xsd?
There is also an <id> tag within the xml. However, SSIS is not using that <id> as the primary key as it adds data to the various tables that I've specified. Instead it appears to be creating its own primary key - calling it "Id". Is there some way to specify that SSIS use the <id> tag contained within the xml instead of creating its own primary key?
Thank you for any help.
Hi,
I have recently started using SQL Server with a 3rd party application and have come across a problem and i have no idea how to fix it...
The database has a column of numbers that go up either by 10 or 100 depending on the letter in another column. eg:
100 M
110 P
120 P
200 M
300 M
400 M
500 M
510 P
520 P
The 3rd party application has just been updated and now can add new rows to this table. The only problem is that the added row needs a new number, and the rows below need to be recalculated.
Is there anyway this can be done? Any help or suggestions would be great!
Cheers,

Hi there,
I'm trying to modify the SQL statement of a Lookup Transformation.
In my DataSet I have 2 columns A, B - I join against a table on columns A and B by
But I only want to match on column B - where column A doesn't match. (I'm looking for duplicate values of B)
So I've tried modifying the SQL statement to:
select * from
(select * from [dbo].[LookupTable]) as refTable
where [refTable].[ColumnB] = ? and [refTable].[ColumnA] <> ?
(The paremeter mapping takes care of itself).
Anyway, it seems sometimes I'm returning rows where it HAS matched on ColumnA.
I'm I on the right track here?

I am going thru the Integration Services Tutorial found in Books Online and I'm on Lesson 3. It has to do with creating a configuration file for the source file location. I followed the steps and now I need to open the .dtsConfig file and type in the folder location.
The exact direction says,
"
In Notepad or any other text editor, locate and open the SSISTutorial.dtsConfig configuration file that you created by using the Package Configuration Wizard in the previous task.
Change the value of the ConfiguredValue element to match the path of the New Sample Data folder that you created in the previous task. Do not surround the path in quotes.
Save the change, and then close the text editor.
"
When I open the file, I see this. What am I supposed to do here?
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <DTSConfiguration>
- <DTSConfigurationHeading>
<DTSConfigurationFileInfo GeneratedBy="FFTWayi" GeneratedFromPackageName="Lesson3" GeneratedFromPackageID="{74BC5CCC-5C51-4ABD-9263-AD3C000E9E1C}" GeneratedDate="4/7/2008 11:25:53 AM" />
</DTSConfigurationHeading>
- <Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Variables[User::varFolderName].Properties[Value]" ValueType="String">
<ConfiguredValue />
</Configuration>
</DTSConfiguration>
I have a brief question.
With a DTS scheduled job if I needed to make a modification, I just changed the DTS and saved it, and the job would automatically
Run the latest DTS (so long as the name was the same)
When I migrate a package to SSMS and schedule it , if I need to modify the package, do I need to modify it through BIDS (visual studio), then re-import it to SSMS and then reschedule it ?
Or is there a quicker way of modifying it ?
Thanks
