Moving A Table To A Different Schema

Aug 27, 2012

We currently have all tables in the dbo schema, but for organizational reason we would like to split them up in multiple schemas and I wonder if that can be done without re-creating the tables.

So my question is, is there a way to move a table into a different schema without re-creating it? (For those familiar with Postgres I'm looking for an equivalent to "ALTER TABLE foo SET SCHEMA newschema") sp_rename only allows a "one-part name" for the new name, so apparently that cannot be used.

Moving Data From One DB Schema To Another DB Schema Using SSIS

May 8, 2007

Hello,

I would like to use SSIS tool to move the data from one database schema to another database schema.

For example:

Source table has

1. UserName (varchar 20) (no null)

2. Email (varchar 50) (can be null)

Destination table has

1. UserID (uniqueidentifier - GUID)

2. UserName (varchar 50) (no null)

3. EmailAddress (nvarchar 50) (can be null)

4. DateTime

Questions:

1. What controls do I use in my Data Flow to make data move between databases with different data types and include new value in UserID as a new GUID and DateTime as a date (GETDATE)?

OLE DB Source, OLE DB Destination, Data Converson and .....

How do I insert Guid and Date at the same time?

2. I have many tables to do data moving. Any sugestions? How do I architect my project? If I create many data flows for each table - it will look complicated.

Please give me some advices here.

Thanks.

Moving BD To New Schema...

Apr 3, 2006

Good morning to everyone!

I have a 3Gig SQL database that currently has all Indexes, Logs, and Data on one drive. We have a new server that will be put in place on Wednesday and thankfully we will be putting the Indexes and TransLogs on different drives from the actual Data. Does anyone have a recommendation on his/her preferred way of doing this and what are some of the advantages/disadvantages some of you may have encountered? This isn't homework. I am finally getting the hang of manipulating and working with our database and will need to accomplish the server switch in about two weeks. Or if you have a recommended reading on this - please point me to it and I'll get to practicing!

Thanks to everyone!

Create Target Table Dynamically Based On Source Table Schema?

Sep 13, 2005

I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely,
Bryan Ax

Tempoary Table Question - How To Create One With The Same Schema As An Existing Table?

Jul 28, 2006

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,

Moving Lots Of Rows From Table To Another Table

Jan 17, 2008

Hi all,

I have two tables within the SQL server and there is an application writes 20.000 or 40000 rows in the First table.

1) I need to know when the table completes filled to start move the data to the second table.

2) After I copy the rows I need to delete the rows from the first table.

I though to use the trigger but I am not sure if this is the best approach or not

Please help....

Thank you

Table Schema

Jan 11, 2004

Hey,

I'm looking at creating a table in a stored procedure

[declare @tempTable table]

however, rather than then declaring the tables schema

[declare @tempTable table (pkField IDENTITY (1,1), SomeOtherField varchar(50), ...)]

I'd like it to simply use the schema of an already existing table (plus an additional column).

Is there a way to do this without having to manually write the table schema?

A simple example is:

I have a table
OriginalTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol)

I'd like to create a temp instance of that table called tempTable which would have a final schema of

tempTable (idCol, NameCol, InfoCol, myTempCol)

The reason I'd like to do this using the schema is so that I don't need to update all my procedures in the future when we decide to add some more detail to the originaltable which needs to be selected as well.

Thanks a lot for any help or direction you can provide.

How To Retrieve Table Schema

Mar 15, 2014

I am more familiar with writing SQL for Oracle than MS SQL Server. Within Oracle there is a simple command, 'Describe', which actually shows the data types, and whether or not an attribute accepts NULLS. MS SQL Server does appear to support such a command, however I am looking for a way to describe the attributes of tables nonetheless.

Table Schema Problem!!

Jun 4, 2008

Hi,

I am a bit confused and wish to share this with you for help. We are designing a billing application to bill telephone calls. It currently handles a single rate plan. So what it does is that it looks up the RATES table and matches the called number area code with the RATES.ACCESS_Code field to find the tariff for that area and multiplies that by the number of minutes. Here is the current schema.

CALLS
•ID (pkid)
•Called Number
•Duration

RATES
•Destination Name
•Access_Code (pkid)
•Tariff

Now the problem is that we need to process calls based on RATES per OPERATOR. Each operator is a telephony carrier with similar RATES. However, each call will be prefixed with a number to indicate which operator carried that call. Accordingly, the database should relate that prefix with the proper operator and then looks up the RATES that are related to that operator.

In conclusion we will have a replica of the RATES table for multiple operators. An operator is only supposed to have two fields I guess (name and ID).

So now we need to re-engineer the schema to adapt to this situation.

Eg. 95004433313445 (Will be identified as BT operator)
93004422376234 (Will be identified as AT&T operator)

Can anyone help please?

PS: we are using SQL Express 2005

Thanks

Transfer Table To Schema?

Mar 5, 2014

I created a schema, Admin. I have to transfer a table from the dbo schema to the admin schema. I keep getting an error that I do not have permission or the table does not exist.

Simply looking for confirmation here - is my syntax correct?

ALTER SCHEMA Admin TRANSFER MyShop.Addresses;
(MyShop is the Database, Addresses is the table)

NOTE: When I created the schema, I did not create an inner table. The syntax for that was simply CREATE SCHEMA Admin;

Large Table Schema Changes

Jul 20, 2005

Quick question:Does SQL do table/schema changes "in place"?I've got a large table (140+ million rows of very widedata) that we want to change the schema on -- basicallyto remove a number of the unused data elements that wedon't use.Anyway, does anyone know if SQL will do an in-placechange, or if it will copy the table to a new table, therebyincreasing my space allocation needs? I'd effectively,temporarily, need space for two tables while the changeis happening if it copies the table first. This is not good asI do not have enough available space at the moment.If you've got pointers to specific MS docs regardingthis issue, please let me have 'em.Thanks in advance.

Edit Table Schema

May 5, 2008

I need to edit a column (PK - GUID) from "Row is GUID = False) to (Row is GUID = True). I get a DLL internal error.

I hate to drop the table & recreate from scratch...wish you could edit in SSMSE.

Also, I used sync services to create the SDF, you would think that it would be the same as the MDF (just a gripe...sorry )

The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' Requires A Database Schema Compatible With Schema Version '1'.

Sep 27, 2007

Locally I develop in SQL server 2005 enterprise. Recently I recreated my db on the server of my hosting company (in sql server 2005 express).I basically recreated the tables and copied the data in it.I now receive the following error when I hit the DB:The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a
database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the
current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may
need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe
(available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the
provider to a newer version.I heard something about running aspnet_regsql.exe, but I dont have that access to the DB. Also I dont know if this command does anything more than creating the membership tables and filling it with some default data...Any other solutions/thought on what this can be?Thanks!

Moving From One Table To Another

Apr 6, 2007

I am trying to write a stored procedure that copies one row from one table and moves it to another table. The two tables do not have exactly the same number of columns and not all of the columns that are the same in each table have the same name. I am using MS SQL Server 2000 and I cannot figure out a way to do this.

My big question is how do you execute a query in a stored procedure and then use the results to execute an update in the same procedure. I want the entire function to occur without the client application having to do any of the work.

Thanks,
Julian

SELECT Of A Table - WITHOUT SCHEMA QUALIFIED

Sep 12, 2005

Posted - 09/12/2005 : 15:16:05
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi

I have a schema XXX. This schema owns a set of tables say XXX.A, XXX.B and XXX.C.

I have a login XXX mapped to the user XXX.

When I connect to the SQL Server using login XXX and execute the query.

Select * from A, it throws be an error saying that"Invalid Object Name A".

Now when I modify the select statement specifying the schema it works. i.e. Select * from XXX.A

In the former case, is it not that SQL Server tries to search for the table in the current user's account and then if it not available it look's in the dbo's account.

HOw can I make a select without specifying the schema ?

I am using SQL Server 2005.

Thanks & Regards

View Not Updating With Table Schema Changes

Jan 16, 2004

I notice that when I change my table schema, the view that was created based on the older schema remains using the older schema, and when I try running it, it will give me error.

I assume that's because the view is still using the old execution plan? Is there a way to force an automatic recompilation of execution plans for all views when there is a change to the underlying table?

Thanks!

How Can I Search A Schema To Identify Table

I am trying to find a needle in a haystack.

One of the tables in this database has a column named column_xyz.

There are over 800 tables, each with numerous columns. If I know that the column I am looking for is "column_xyz" is there an easy query I can do to identify all tables that contain that column?

I hope.

Checking Schema Of Source Table

Sep 23, 2007

Greetings!!

I have a MsAccess db containing a table called Employees which i am transforming to Sql server 2005. Everything is working fine. I am using Foreach File enumerator and uploading the files one by one.

However I now plan to validate the schema of MsAccess before uploading it. For eg: My employee table in msaccess is as follows :

Employees
empId int,
empName varchar(60),
empAge int

Since the files come from different vendor, while looping, i want to perform a check if the empid or empAge are not of type long or are not null. If they are of type smallint,i have no problem.

However if they are larger datatypes than the the ones kept in Sql server, then the file needs to be logged in the db with the reason and moved to the error folder. In short, if the datatypes in access tables are smaller than those in Sqlserver, allow it, otherwise reject it.

THe schema of Sqlserver table is same as of that of Employees in msaccess.

How do I do it.

Thanks ,
Lolsron
