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: -

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 am trying to modify data in a tble using the Stored Procedure below. It doesnt work properly. I seem to only be getting one character. I think it has something to do with me using "nchar" with the variables. The value I am changing is actually a string.
Alter Procedure usp_UpdateJobName
@JobNameOld nchar, @JobNameNew nchar
As
UPDATE
JobName
SET
JobName=@JobNameNew

I have a project where I need the ability to update data in a SQL table (SQL 2008) from a tool like Access or Excel. My SQL table has 3 records: Employee number, Employee Name, and a yes / no value (1 or 0). I want to be able to display the table data (in Access or Excel), and be able to have the user modify the yes / no value, but not the Employee number or Employee name. How to handle this in SQL. Should I connect Access directly to the SQL table?Â

Hi all,
Having some fun with an excel import.
I have a excel sheet that has data that needs to be UpSert'ed into 2
different tables. In addition, I need to use a value in the spreadsheet
to determine the PK from a reference data table, for one of the UpSert
oprations.
That is all working now.
The thing I'm struggling with is something I am sure is quite simple -
but I'm not seeing a solution from attempts, googling or BOL.
2 of the columns I receive have either nothing, or X in them. The columns they go into are defined as BIT, NOT NULL.
So, in SQL it would be something relatively simple like:
CASE
When IsAvailable = 'X' then 1
When IsAvailable is null then 1
ELSE 0
end
But I don't know how to do this to data that was in a spreadsheet, and
now is a resultset being handed from a task to another task.
to outline my current solution:
---- table 1 = this all works -------------
Excel Source --> MultiCast (For Table 1)-->Data conversion for
table1-->:Sort for Table1--> Merge Join for table 1 (left Outer
join) as 'left' leg
Table1 Source --> Sort Table1 --> Merge Join for table 1 (left Outer join) as 'right' leg
Merge Join for table 1 --> Conditional Lplit for table1
Conditional Split for table1 (table1 source PK is null) -->Insert Into Table1 Destination
Conditional Split for table1 (table1 source PK is not null) -->Update Table1 OLE DB Command
---- table 2 = this needs to be able to convert X/NULL to BIT -------------
MultiCast (For Table 2)-->Copy Column for Table2 -->Data
Conversion for Table 2-->table3 lookup to get FK-->Sort for
Table2 merge-->Merge Join for table 2 (left outer join) as 'left' leg
Table2 Source --> Sort Table2 --> Merge Join for table 2 (left outer join) as 'right' leg
Merge Join for table 2 --> Conditional split for table 2
Conditional split for table 2(table2 source PK in null) -->insert into table 2
Conditional split for table 2(table2 source PK in not null) -->update table 2 ole db command
-----------------------------------------
Now, if I correct the spreadsheet to have 0's and 1's in the two
column, then the process above works. But I cannot (yet) force business
to do that.
If tried to use SQL Command for the excel source, but there is limited
functionality on the command - I cannot do SQL coalese, isnull or case
statements, which would allow me to resolve that data at source.
I've tried to use derived columns to alter the columns. I think that
the REPLACE (IsAvailable, VariableContainingX,VariableContaining1)
might work to change X's to 1, but that doesn't resolve the NULL issue.
I've tried to use a script component to handle the conversion - which
REALLY feels like a bad way to do this - the .Net script is wrote was:
-------------.net script code-------------
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
If Not (Row.EndOfRowset) Then
If
(Row.IsDotComVanEnabled_IsNull) Or (Row.IsDotComVanEnabled.Equals("X"))
Then
Row.IsDotComVanEnabled = "1"
End If
If
(Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled_IsNull) Or
(Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled.Contains("X")) Then
Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled = "1"
End If
Row.NextRow()
End If
End Sub
End Class
------------------------------------------
I also tried it like this:
----------------1st draft .Net script code--------
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
If
(Row.IsDotComVanEnabled_IsNull) Or (Row.IsDotComVanEnabled.Equals("X"))
Then
Row.IsDotComVanEnabled = "1"
End If
If
(Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled_IsNull) Or
(Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled.Contains("X")) Then
Row.IsStoreCollectionEnabled = "1"
End If
End Sub
End Class
-------------------------------------------------
Those both threw the following error;
-------------error information-----------------
Script Component has encountered an exception in user code:
PROJECT NAME: ScriptComponent_a333140d269b413bb1bddef390da7e16
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

We have enabled Change Data Capture for auditing our table changes in SQL Server 2008. There is a request to NULL out a few columns (for all rows) in a couple CDC tables, due to compliance with a certification. Is there a compelling reason not to modify these tables and to leave the audit trail as-is?

In my SSIS package, I have a data flow task
I am loading a CSV file into a SQL table (OLE DB destination)
I have a couple of CSV files to be loaded
Instead of creating a separate task for each file , can I combine them together into a single task
I was thinking about using a ForEach container
This approach works if the number of columns in all the CSV files is same
But in my case it is not
So what I want is a script task that dynamically modifies the mappings
Can I do this?
I was browsing the net and I found certain code which uses IDTSExternalMetadataColumn90, MapOutputColumn etc.
But the code was creating a new package for each mapping
I couldn't understand the code
So can you please help me with this?
My script task should modify the mappings in my data flow task
For e.g.
If I have 3 columns in my CSV and 3 columns in DB, they should be mapped in the same order
P.S. I do not want to use configurations

Please help figure out what is wrong with my code. The script is supposed to load a package (from file). The loaded package already has everything set up to run a query against a local server and output the results to an Excel file. The reason for the outer script is because I need to change the query based on a global variable. When the query changes, though, I think the existing dataflow Path is no longer valid, so I should remove it and re-create another one with the new input mappings. Here is my code, which runs and throws an exception at the AcquireConnections call.
The error is
Error: 0x2 at Script Task: The script threw an exception: Exception from HRESULT: 0xC020801B
I pieced together this code from the examples in the online books, but I am not sure what to do.

Hi all,
I have several reports using single shared datasource. I want to change at a runtime database that is used by that datasource. Can this be achieved? If not what are the other solutions €“ I guess that using not shared datasource for each report may be the solution (is it?) but it is not the best solution for me. My goal is to allow users to run the same set of reports, viewed in ReportViewer control, but using different databases (connection string dependant).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

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).

I have a package which loads data from a flat file (csv) to 4 tables in a database.
Now, the load is incremental.
I want to clear the data of all 4 tables(in the database) before loading the data from flat file everytime.How can i do this?
Iam using 4 Oledb Destinations, 1 multicast, 1 source component to do this.
Also can it happen like a transaction? because if it deletes the existing data and couldnt load new data there will be a problem!.how to avoid this?

I went to look at the connection string previously entered for a dataset created in a new report, and am not seeing anything intuitive for bringing up the associated datasource dialog box that was used to enter name, type and connection string. I'm also noticing nothing intuitive for deleting an existing dataset. How do you do these two very simple things in an existing project? I dont see the dataset in solution explorer, I see it only in the text box on the data tab and in a limited kind of way on the dataset view where the columns show and maint is allowed mostly on the columns only. I tried hilighting the dataset here and hitting the delete key to no avail.

Hi All,
I would like to restore database using RESTORE DATABASE ... REPLACE command.
If database exists already and has any open connections this command will fail.
I would like to close all existing connections to specific database before running RESTORE DATABASE ... REPLACE command.
I can do closing from Management Studio using checkbox "Close Existing Connection" when deleting database. Actually I need to do the same but from script.
Please advice me how to do it.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I have been given the assignment to come up with an Entity Relationship diagram of an existing database. The database wasn't designed by me. I was wondering if there is a standard scientific way of displaying the relationships between the various tables at a functional level on Visio. Since, I didn't design the database in the first place, I don't know how to take a step backward and recreate the ERD from the given database.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks

I am building RDA process between SQL server and SQL server CE. Since when we use the method 'SqlCeRemoteDataAccess.pull()', the data will be pulled down from SQL server to CE server and a new table is created with some addtional columns. As I only intend to pull the data and never push it back to SQL server, if I pull the data down for the second time, there will be an error saying that table is already existing. I wonder whether I can pull the data to an existing table everytime I do the RDA?

Good Morning, I need some assistance with SQL Server 2000 Importing Data.
When I import data from a text on a routine basis, three things must happen:
1. New records identified by primary key get appended to table.
2. Exisiting records identified by primary key get overwritten with new/(updated) data.
3. All other existing records are left alone.
Does anyone know how to Import Records with the following the criteria above? It cannot insert duplicate primary keys by nature, so it must overwrite those records!
This is being built into a DTS Package, but I need to get over this obsticle! Thanks for any guidance!

I have a table with several columns of information that I wish to set up some form of schedule to go through this data and remove any special characters that may interfere with other code processes.
Mainly the coma's and the apostrophes. It really messes with my asp pages and scripts when retrieving this information and trying to do other things with it, so I need to figure out how to remove these from the tables so it does not cause these issues.
Knowing this, I cannot figure out how to keep the data in the row/column and just extract the special characters from that data. The other problem is, everything I try requires me to insert either a coma or apostrophe as part of the code string which in lies my issue.
How can I parse through my data, leave the data as-is, but just get rid of coma's, apostrophes, and double quotes?
Does anyone have a basic example that I can use to expand on?

SQL Server 2000 Enterprise
While testing an update script I found that a number of data rows are inaccessible using my query, though the data does exist in the table. I can browse records to find the data or query the record by some column names, but not by others.
For example:
SELECT name FROM tblPersonalInformation WHERE [ID Number] = 2358899;
would not find the data sought. However, if I put in:
SELECT address FROM tblPersonalInformation WHERE name = ‘Doe, John’;
the query yields the desired data. Many of the records queried display the specified data with no problem. I have found this problem to exist on a number of data rows, but can’t figure out a reason. The front-end application displays the data without any apparent problems.
Ideas please.
