Multiple Server Views
May 10, 2000
Hi There,
Is it possible to make views which takes Data from Multiple Servers?
NOTE: The view is very complex because it uses FOUR Diff. statements
joined together with UNION clause.
One more Q.
If my Query Analizer Displays following on execution of query.
" Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan."
What should be my approach to rectify the problem.
Any help would really be appreciated.

Which is more efficient? One large view that joins >=10 tables, or a few smaller views that join only the tables needed for individual pages?

I have ViewA that sums up 4 fields from one table. I then have ViewB that uses ViewA to calculate the results. Now I do this with 5 different tables and then link them all to get my final results. Each View has a date range (begin / end) that I need to pass from a Web form.
How should I go about doing this? Should I create a temporary table to hold the begin / end dates to use in the sub Views? Or something else? I am at a lost on how to go about this and need some direction and syntax?
Thanks in advance for your help!!

I am new to SQL, so I appologize if I am doing something wrong which is really basic.
I am receiving a "Incorrect syntax near ';' " when trying to create a view and then perform action based upon the results
Here is my basic code...the error is on the ; following the create view statement:
create view temp2 as select * from history where crc='XL' and processed<1;
insert into history2 (dialid, calldatetime, origcalldate, crc, revenue, projectid, agentid, phonenum)select temp2.dialid, temp2.calldatetime, temp2.calldatetime, 'XL', 0, history2.projectid, temp2.agentid, temp2.phonenum from temp2, history2where temp2.dialid=history2.dialid and temp2.crc='XL' and temp2.processed<1 and temp2.projectid=110;
What am I doing wrong???
Thanks for your help.

Hello,I am relatively new to doing non-trivial SQL queries.I have to get data out of 8 diff views based on a parameter Name.There is a view having name-ssn pairs. All other views have SSN field.For a person there MAY NOT be data in all the views.I have to populate data into diff tables in a Report from differentviews.I would like to know what is the best way to approach it.So far I was trying an Inner join from the Name-ssn vies to all otherviews based on the SSN and test for the name field with the inputparameter.I am thinking there will be problem of Cross join if I dont have datain all views about a person.Or the best way is to write query for each view and have all of them ina stored procedure ?Any help will be appreciatedThanksBofo

I wonder if anyone has any hard fact based pro or contra, especially onperformance, about having views as opposed to tables when the object isbeing accessed for read only by multiple sessions/users/spids. I amparticularly concerned about the multiple instantiations of the view.Relevant thoughts on this are much appreciated.Thanks,Caveman

Hi All,
My database's design is set out here. In summary, I'm trying to model a Stock Exchange for a Technical Analysis application written using Visual C++. In order to create the hierachy I'm using a Nested Set Model. I'm now trying to write code to add and delete equities (or, more generically, nodes) to the database using a form presented to the user in my application. I have example SQL code to create the necessary add and delete procedures that calculate the changes to the values in the lft and rgt columns, but these examples focus around a single table, where as my design aggregates rows from multiple tables using UNION ALL:
Code Snippet
CREATE VIEW vw_NSM_DBHierarchy -- Nested Set Model Database Hierarchy
AS
SELECT clmStockExchange, clmLeft, clmRight FROM tblStockExchange_
UNION ALL
SELECT clmMarkets, clmLeft, clmRight FROM tblMarkets_
UNION ALL
SELECT clmSectors, clmLeft, clmRight FROM tblSectors_
UNION ALL
SELECT clmEPIC, clmLeft, clmRight FROM tblEquities_
Essentially, I'm trying to create an updateable view but I receive the error "UNION ALL View is not updatable because a partitioning column was not found". I suspect that my design in wrong or lacks and this problem is highlighting the design flaws so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Fellow database developers,I would like to draw on your experience with views. I have a databasethat includes many views. Sometimes, views contains other views, andthose views in turn may contain views. In fact, I have some views inmy database that are a product of nested views of up to 6 levels deep!The reason we did this was.1. Object-oriented in nature. Makes it easy to work with them.2. Changing an underlying view (adding new fields, removing etc),automatically the higher up views inherit this new information. Thismake maintenance very easy.3. These nested views are only ever used for the reporting side of ourapplication, not for the day-to-day database use by the application.We use Crystal Reports and Crystal is smart enough (can't believe Ijust said that about Crystal) to only pull back the fields that arebeing accessed by the report. In other words, Crystal will issue aSelect field1, field2, field3 from ReportingView Where .... eventhough "ReportingView" contains a long list of fields.Problems I can see.1. Parent views generally use "Select * From childview". This meansthat we have to execute a "sp_refreshview" command against all viewswhenever child views are altered.2. Parent views return a lot of information that isn't necessarilyused.3. Makes it harder to track down exactly where the information iscoming from. You have to drill right through to the child view to seethe raw table joins etc.Does anyone have any comments on this database design? I would love tohear your opinions and tales from the trenches.Best regards,Rod.

Hello.
Newbie here. I've only been using SQL for about a year now and have some minor questions about sql objects that reference other objects.
We have some views which reference other views in the joins. I will call one the primary view and the one being referenced in the joins as the secondary view.
Recently we made changes to the secondary view.
After which the primary views which referenced it would not work because of this change and had to be 'refreshed' by using drop/create scripts which essentially just dropped it and recreated the exact same view. I do not recall the exact error message that was returned other than it seemed to suggest that it could no longer see the secondary view since it had been changed. Nothing in the primary view was changed in any way, just the secondary.
Some here where I work have suggested off hand that this was a recompile of the primary view because the contents of the secondary changed.
My questions are:
1. Exactly why did this happen and is there a proper name for it when it does?
2. The same problem does not seem to occur when we have stored procedures referencing views in the joins which had just been changed. Why is that?
Thanks for any help on the matter. I greatly appreciate it.

Hello,
to make a report easier I'm developing it using a view of joined views of joined views.
Is there any significant performance penalty as opposed to just having one big select?
Cheers.

Hi,
I've been using stored procedures to do queries including inner joins etc. I have always known about views but don't understand why they are used, what is there purpose, they seem the same as sql queries, is that true?
Is it more effiicient to use views rather than stored procedures to do your queries?
Really I just want to know why I would ever want to use views instead of stored procedures to do my queries?
Thanks in advance.

Need a Clarification in SQL Server 2000.
I would like to know if its possible to create a view of a table residing in a SQL server which is not the one in which we r currently working in
Desc:
1) Say i have 2 SQL servers( different Boxes) A & B
I am working in ' B ', can i have a view of a table residing in SQL server 'A' in my system( Server 'B')
2) Leaving out the network uncertainities, will such a setup give any performance issue when the view is for a table that captures daily transactions running into several
thousands of records
3) Is ther any other Alternative to access tables in another SQL sever without going for Views?
Plz find out and reply ASAP.

Hi there,First thing off, I'd like to know what Views are useful for? I thing it can speeds select query containing multiple join, but I'm not even sure if that's true.Second, assuming that Views speeds thing up for SELECT query, can it be used by NHibernate when restoring object from their persistence store (in this case, SQL 2k5) ? If not, can they be (views) of any use if we use NHibernate?Third, would it be better to create our crystal report using Views to improve performance?Thanks for anyone who participates in this thread! :-)

I have two databases on my Server - database1 and database2.
Database1 has a view on tables on database2 :
create view myview as select * from database2.dbo.tablename
(because all tables in database2 are owned by dbo)
and myview on database1 is owned by dbo.
when a user on database1 - lets say user1 tries to select rows from myview,
we get an error saying that user1 is not a valid user on database2.
it only allows user1 to select rows from myview if i make user1 a user on database2
as well, which is not what i want.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
i would like to be able to select rows from a view which is based on tables in another database.
thanks

Be careful when implementing views (from SQL Server 97/2K). SQL Serverstores the metadata on the view at creation (or the last time it wassaved). This means if you have:SELECT * FROM table1it will put all the fields of table1 in the view's metadata. If youthen change table1 and add (for example) another field, this fieldwill not be visible in the view until you open it in design view andclick save (to update it).

I am trying to create a report using Reporting Services.
My problem right now is that the way the table is constructed, I am trying to pull 3 seperate values i.e. One is the number of Hours, One is the type of work, and the 3rd is the Grade, out of one column and place them in 3 seperate columns in the report.
I can currently get one value but how to get the information I need to be able to use in my reports.
So far what I've been working with SQL Reporting Services 2005 I love it and have made several reports, but this one has got me stumped.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I might not have made my problem quite clear enough. My table has one column labeled value. The value in that table is linked through an ID field to another table where the ID's are broken down to one ID =Number of Hours, One ID = Grade and One ID= type of work.
What I'm trying to do is when using these ID's and seperate the value related to those ID's into 3 seperate columns in a query for using in Reporting Services to create the report
As you can see, I'm attempting to change the name of the same column 3 times to reflect the correct information and then link them all to the person, where one person might have several entries in the other fields.
As you can see I can change the names individually in queries and pull the information seperately, it's when roll them altogether is where I'm running into my problem
Thanks for the suggestions that were made, I apoligize for not making the problem clearer.
Here is a copy of what I'm attempting to accomplish. I didn't have it with me last night when posting.
--Pulls the Service Opportunity
SELECT cs.value AS "Service Opportunity"
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name = 'Service Opportunity'
--Pulls the Number of Hours
SELECT cs.value AS 'Number of Hours'
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid =cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name ='Num of Hours'
--Pulls the Person Grade Level
SELECT cs.value AS 'Grade'
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid =cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name ='Grade'
--Pulls the Person Number, First and Last Name and Grade Level
SELECT s.personnumber, s.lastname, s.firstname, cs.value as "Grade"
FROM student s
INNER JOIN cperson cs ON cs.personid = s.personid
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid
WHERE cs.value =(SELECT cs.value AS 'Grade'
WHERE ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid AND ca.name='Grade')

Hi all!
I'm trying to get some XML data into SQL Server but i ran into problem when inserting the data (multiple orders with multiple order details) using a single sproc. Is it possible, or do I have to do in some other way? :confused:
I simplified my example to this:
-----------------------------
--CREATE PROCEDURE sp_InsertOrders AS
DECLARE @docHandle INT, @xmlDoc VARCHAR(4000), @orderID INT
--DROP TABLE #Orders
CREATE TABLE #Orders
(
OrderId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkCustomerID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
OrderDate DATETIME NOT NULL
)
--DROP TABLE #OrderDetails
CREATE TABLE #OrderDetails
(
OrderDetailsId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkOrderID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
ProductID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
UnitPrice SMALLINT NOT NULL
)
Set @xmlDoc = '
<Orders>
<Order CustomerID="1" OrderDate="2004-04-01">
<OrderDetails ProductID="6" UnitPrice="19"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="3" UnitPrice="11"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="9" UnitPrice="7"/>
</Order>
<Order CustomerID="2" OrderDate="2004-04-12">
<OrderDetails ProductID="2" UnitPrice="24"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="4" UnitPrice="13"/>
</Order>
</Orders>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @docHandle OUTPUT, @xmlDoc
INSERT INTO #Orders (FkCustomerID, OrderDate)
SELECT CustomerID, OrderDate
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order', 3)
WITH (
CustomerID INTEGER,
OrderDate DATETIME
)
SET @OrderID = @@IDENTITY;
--INSERT INTO #OrderDetails (@OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice)
SELECT @OrderID AS OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order/OrderDetails', 3)
WITH (
ProductID INTEGER,
UnitPrice INTEGER
)
-----------------------------
All orders are inserted first which makes the use of @@IDENTITY incorrect (it works fine if you insert a single order with multiple order details). Since it was quite some time since I last worked with SQL I am not sure if am doing it the right way... :confused: :confused: Anybody out there who knows how to solve the problem?
Cheers,
Christian

I concatenate multiple rows from one table in multiple columns like this:
--Create Table
CREATE TABLE [Person].[Person_1](
[BusinessEntityID] [int] NOT NULL,
[PersonType] [nchar](2) NOT NULL,
[FirstName] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Person_BusinessEntityID_1] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[Code] ....
This works very well, but I want to concatenate more rows with different [PersonType]-Values in different columns and I don't like the overhead, of using the same table in every subquery ([Person_1]). Is there a more elegant way to do this, without using a temp table or something else?

I need to update multiple columns in a table with multiple condition.
For example, this is my Query
update Table1
set weight= d.weight,
stateweight=d.stateweight,
overallweight=d.overallweight
from
(select * from table2)d
where table1.state=d.state and
table1.month=d.month and
table1.year=d.year
If table matches all the three column (State,month,year), it should update only weight column and if it matches(state ,year) it should update only the stateweight column and if it matches(year) it should update only the overallweight column
I can't write an update query for each condition separately because its a huge select

hi all,
i had a view in my project, i am inserting a record in to that view(View contains a identity key for a column), with in stored procedure i am inserting a record i am not passing the identity key value to the insert statement. The record is getting inserted,Based on the identity key(i am getting the identity key value with Scope_Identity()) and with that value i am inserting records into another two tables.In this scenario every thing is working fine.
but now i am trying to place a trigger(instead of insert trigger) on the view, when i placed,it is not inserting record into first table,so i am not able to get the identity value of that record and process failed.
how can this achived, let me know.

Hi,
I have two servers that i want to create a SQL RS report on.
On one server there is an HR database with our staff details, on the other server there is a database of assets.
In order to report on the assets assigned to each user i am thinking that i will have to :
1) link the servers
2) create a view in the HR database exposing the fields needed
3) create a view in the assets database exposing the assets information joined to the view from the other server
4) create my reports on the view on the assets server.
is this right or am i barking up the wrong tree?

Please help.
I created a linked server with Oracle Provider for OLE DB to Oracle Database from SQL Server 2000 SP 4. Afterwards I created Views from this linked server and granted SQL Server users "select" access to the Views.
Unfortunately when they try to access the views the following error message was generated (see the attached image - error.gif).
Can someone please explain to me what is wrong?
Thanks

Thanks in advance in reading this post ! I'm facing a situation in sql server 2000 sp4 with partitioned views.
I have a partition views that joins about 10 tables, in each table there is a check constraint.
For example, if a exec a select count(*) from VIEW where col1 = '20080101' , it goes for the table that has data for '20080101' .
If I exec a select col1,col2,col3,col4 from VIEW where col1='20080101', it goes to all tables and make an index seek.
I want the beaviour of query 1, beause it is just looking on 1 table and not one the 10.
Thanks in advance !

Do not trust values returned by materialized views under SQL Serverwithout frequently checking underlying tables!!!I already posted this message under microsoft.public.sqlserver.serverand I'm amazed nobody from Microsoft answered about this problem. Byinserting lots of data into our two main tables for about 30 minutes,we can fail our materialized view that performs a count_big on thosetwo tables.Executing (after of course having stopped inserting rows in our twotables)[color=blue]> SELECT SUM(field1+field2+field3) FROM MatView option(expand views)[/color]DOES NOT RETURN the same value than:[color=blue]> SELECT SUM(field1+field2+field3) FROM MatView with (noexpand)[/color]The second call - using the materialized view - returns a smallernumber (as if counts were lost during our bulk insert)As our data has to be accurate, we cannot use Materialized viewsanymore. This problem does not occur when the amount of data insertedis smaller. Rebuilding the clustered index on the view fixes theproblem; do we have to constantly be rebuilding the index to keep theview synchronize !?!!?!Is there a way to tell that our view is not synchronized? Justcomparing values returned by our view does not work for us as data isconstantly been inserted.System: SQL server 2000 SP3 Enterprise EditionVincent LIDOU

Hi,
I read that views can't be published with SQL Server 2005 replication. Is this planned for the future? If not what alternatives are there for this?
Simple collecting the data needed in a new table ain't a solution for us (memory consuming). And joining the data on the PPC ain't a good solution either (memory and time consuming). We only want to pull the data.
Greets,

SQL 2005 SP2 in Managemrnt Studio...
I have a linked server set-up pointing to an instance that has several databases. In one catalog I have no tables or views being listed for the catalog. So I select a view, add the permissions that should allow the view to show in the list but it does not. And I did refresh and I did even restart management studio.
BTW: I can exec the view using a 4 part name.
Any one have an idea why the view don't show in the list?
Thanks much
