Here after the Union, the col. WWDTA should have data but its' coming back blanks, but all cols are aligned. why is this?
SELECT ALL T01.OHORD#, T01.OHSLR#,T01.OHORDT, T01.OHORDD, T01.OHTTN$, '' as WWDTA FROM ASTDTA.OEORHDOH T01, ASTDTA.OETRANOT T02 WHERE T01.OHORD# = T02.OTORD#
I have a column that has 75 values, 50 are unique/25 are duplicates. Ineed to be able to bring back a list of the duplicates, listing allrows even if more than two have the same value. I need to be able todo this using t-sql.Thanks,Tim
I need to always have a formatting of 999,999,999.00 in a column called PropertyMap9.
PropertyMap9 is always a nvarchar(max)
How do I SET a value using a CONVERT or CAST to accomplish this ?
Why does this give me a syntax error ? The PropertyMap7 set actually works and performs the calculation and sets the new value for that row, however the next line gives an error. I need all 3 columns PropertyMap9, 8, and 7 to always have the above formatting, while still maintaining the nvarchar(max) datatype in the column. HELP!
update PropertyMapValues
set PropertyMap7 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap8 AS money) - (CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money)),1)
set PropertyMap9 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money))
END
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure UpdatePropertyMap7, Line 59
After several hours of trying, I trow the towel in the ring and come here to ask a question.
Source system uses a timestamp column in the transaction tables. which is equal to a non-nullable binary(8) datatype (sql 2000 bol).
What I want to do is get the timestamp at the start of the transfer and at the end of the transfer of data. and store these in a controltable
I try to do this in 2 sql execute tasks:
sqltask 1: "select @@DBTS AS SourceTimestamp" and map the resultset to a variable. Here come's the first problem what variable type to take ?
DBNULL works (meaning it doesn't give errors) (BTW: is there a way to put a variable as a watch when debugging sql tasks ?)
INT64 and UINT64 don't work error message that types for column and parameter are different
STRING works
Then I want to store this variable back in a table of a different data source
sqltask2: "insert into controltable values(getdate(), ?)" and make an input parameter that takes the previous timestamp ...
if I took DBNULL as a type for the variable there doesn't seem to be a single parameter type that works ???
if i take STRING as a type for the variable I have to modify the sql to do the explicit conversion from string to binary so I change CAST(? as binary). It doesn't return any error but the value stored in the table is 0x00000000000 and not the actual timestamp.
Any help on this one ? Why are the INT64/Bigint not working here, you can perfectly do a convert(bigint, timestampfield) in sql ?
How came the SQL datatypes, and the variable datatypes, parameter datatypes are so badly alligned to each other (and all seem to use different names) ?
12.) Now you have two different tables - each with two columns.Table #1Single Column2 rows with a value equal to 1 and 2Table #2Single column2 rows with a value equal to 2 and 4Construct a statement returning in a single column all the valuescontained, but not the common values.This is another question that I got in an interview, I missedit.......Thanks,Tim
Hello,I'm trying to create a simple back up in the SQL Maintenance Plan that willmake a single back up copy of all database every night at 10 pm. I'd likethe previous nights file to be overwritten, so there will be only a singleback up file for each database (tape back up runs every night, so each daysback up will be saved on tape).Every night the maintenance plan makes a back up of all the databases to anew file with a datetime stamp, meaning the previous nights file stillexists. Even when I check "Remove files older than 22 hours" the previousnights file still exists. Is there any way to create a back up file withoutthe date time stamp so it overwrites the previous nights file?Thanks!Rick
New to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on the roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?
I need to run two reports each of A5 Size to run back to page and print on single A4 paper means in 1st half Sale bill will be printed and in second half Gate Pass Will Be Printed both report will be on same page and size and shape should be maintained. How to do it.
Hello,I am hoping you can help me with the following problem; I need to process the following steps every couple of hours in order to keep our Sql 2000 database a small as possible (the transaction log is 5x bigger than the db).1.back-up the entire database2.truncate the log3.shrink the log4.back-up once again.As you may have determined, I am relatively new to managing a sql server database and while I have found multiple articles online about the topics I need to accomplish, I cannot find any actual examples that explain where I input the coded used to accomplish the above-mentioned steps. I do understand the theory behind the steps I just do not know how to accomplish them!If you know of a well-documented tutorial, please point me in the right direction.Regards.
Does anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005 databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance with the daily activities when the night time processing isn€™t completed on time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also, it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended state. I am also not happy with the fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun. All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of years before I upgrade to SS 2005.
I have a excel file which has a column called "Code" and their values are A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H. I want to create a new column called "status" based on the values of "Code".
Code:
A B C D E F G H
If A,C,E,G then "status" = "Active" else if B,D,F,H then "Status" = "Inactive". I like to do it using "Derived Column".

What is the best practice for a SQL back up? We are installing Symantec Backup Exec. Is it really necessary to pay for the SQL backup agent? What does the agent do for you that the regular backups within SQL doesn't give you?

Hello all ASP'ers, I'm very familiar with .net code and data access as it is what I do for a living. However, what I don't do a lot is make my own web project from scratch. All our DB connections are handled through a DB class that we instansiate and use, quite easy. BTW, we hit an Oracle DB and code in C# in VS 2008 Team Developer.Here's my (simple I hope) dilemma.I'm using VS2008, C#, SQL server database. I put a text box and a button on the front page (of my web page) for users to enter their email address for a newsletter. I created the DB by right-mouse-clicking on my project icon in the Solution Explorer, add new item, then selected SQLServer Database, it and saved it. It now appears in the Solution Explorer. I've added the table and columns I need but for the life of me I cannot connect to it. I've seen TONS of connection string examples but I need help getting the proper syntax for my situationI have not created a user ID or a password for the database. What do I put in for the DataSource and the database?I dragged the database icon into my code and got the local path wher it resides:C:FilesWebProjects2008WbProjApp_DataNews.mdfHere is the most common connection string I see for SQL Server:SqlConnection Conn = new SqlConnection(" + "Data Source=Your server name;" + <------ What goes here?"database=Your Database Name;" + <------ What goes here?"UID=UserID of the server;" + <------ Can I get rid of this?"PWD=password of the server;"); <------ Can I get rid of this?I've done a different project using an Access DB and have that guy up on the web working great, I just can't get htis one connected and the data a' flowin'.Please help, this is my personal website and I want to use SQL Server but I'm getting frustrated and just might go back to Access, aaaaggghhhhhhh...Once I get past the Conn.Open(); in a try/catch I'll be good. I've got the rest of the data commands in place and ready to go. Here is a link to a visual to help you see what I'm doing, it's just a shot of my solution explorer.

Ok it seems to me that if you use the ms recommended code to connect your apps using the app_data folder etc, that the dbs never show up in the SQLExpress manager.So I can't back them up like I can databases I connect to SQLExpress the 'old fashioned way'. Only 2 out of 6 dbs are visible in SQLExpress manager.What is the proper way to do this?Thanks,Jamey
