New To SQL - Can Someone Send Me Towards A Good Guide? More Inside...

Jan 26, 2008


Hey forum...i'm a newbie to SQL, but not IT. However I'm or a network admin than a database admin...so this is completely new.

All i'm trying to do is setup one single database for my mail server to use for grey listing entries. it is using Access right now, and i want to setup a SQL Express database and DSN for it to use.

Does anyone have a good pointer for beginning SQL people?

THANKS!

Do GetDate() Inside SQL Server OR Do System.DateTime.Now Inside Application ?

Sep 12, 2007

For inserting current date and time into the database, is it more efficient and performant and faster to do getDate() inside SQL Server and insert the value
OR
to do System.DateTime.Now in the application and then insert it in the table?
I figure even small differences would be magnified if there is moderate traffic, so every little bit helps.
Thanks.

EXEC Inside CASE Inside SELECT

Nov 16, 2007

I'm trying to execute a stored procedure within the case clause of select statement.
The stored procedure returns a table, and is pretty big and complex, and I don't particularly want to copy the whole thing over to work here. I'm looking for something more elegant.

@val1 and @val2 are passed in


CREATE TABLE #TEMP(
tempid INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
myint INT NOT NULL,
mybool BIT NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #TEMP (myint, mybool)
SELECT my_int_from_tbl,
CASE WHEN @val1 IN (SELECT val1 FROM (EXEC dbo.my_stored_procedure my_int_from_tbl, my_param)) THEN 1 ELSE 0
FROM dbo.tbl
WHERE tbl.val2 = @val2


SELECT COUNT(*) FROM #TEMP WHERE mybool = 1


If I have to, I can do a while loop and populate another temp table for every "my_int_from_tbl," but I don't really know the syntax for that.

Any suggestions?

SQL Server Express: Can Someone Provide The Guide MS Does Not?

Mar 30, 2007

The overly complex MSDN library is proving virtually useless to me. To give you some background, I've programmed PHP / MYSQL websites, in-depth VBA programs for Excel and a bit of non-database work in various languages - I'm an amateur.



I've just bought a new PC (2g Ram, Core 2 Duo, Vista Home Basic) and would like to run Web Developer Exp, VB Exp and SQL Server 05 Exp.



Note. I have installed all three and run through Microsoft's video tutorial, until I hit a snag at the start of Tutorial 2. When try to create a new SQL Database in WebDev, an error saying either SQL Server is not installed or operating correctly (could Microsoft provide a more specific error or what????)



The questions Microsoft need to answer are:



1. What are the hardware requirements for SQL Server 05?

2. What are the operating system requirements for SQL Server 05?

3. What does IIS have to do with SQL Server 05?

4. How do you know if you meet the IIS requirements for running SQL Server 05?

5. Exactly what elements of SQL Server 05 are affected by different levels of IIS?

6. Can anti-virus or firewall software cause issues.



Please, some one from Microsoft respond.

SQL Server 2008 :: 2 Emails Being Send From Job When Only 1 Should Send?

Apr 18, 2012

I have a job that emails out shipment notifications at the end of the day to our customers. The problem I have is I don't understand why the same email is sending out twice within a minute of each other when the job is only scheduled to run once. If I take the code out of the step and run it in management studio it only emails once. I attached the code for one customer for reference. We are running SQL 2008 on a VM sending to an exchange 2010 server.

DECLARE @tableHTML NVARCHAR(MAX) ;
SET @tableHTML =N'<H1>XYZ Company ASN For ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) + ' </H1>' +
N'<table border="1">' +
N'<tr><th>Vendor</th><th>Delivery Date</th>' +
N'<th>Purchase Order Number</th><th>Item Number</th><th>Item Description</th>' +
N'<th>Quantity Shipped</th><th>UOM</th><th>BOL Number</th>'

Differentiate Between Whether Stored Procedure A Is Executed Inside Query Analyzer Or Executed Inside System Application Itself.

May 26, 2008

Just wonder whether is there any indicator or system parameters that can indicate whether stored procedure A is executed inside query analyzer or executed inside application itself so that if execution is done inside query analyzer then i can block it from being executed/retrieve sensitive data from it?

What i'm want to do is to block someone executing stored procedure using query analyzer and retrieve its sensitive results.
Stored procedure A has been granted execution for public user but inside application, it will prompt access denied message if particular user has no rights to use system although knew public user name and password. Because there is second layer of user validation inside system application.

However inside query analyzer, there is no way control execution of stored procedure A it as user knew the public user name and password.

Looking forward for replies from expert here. Thanks in advance.

Note: Hope my explaination here clearly describe my current problems.

Please Guide - Especially About Time Dimension And Approach In General

Mar 30, 2004

Hi,

I have a table which contains all the transaction details for which I am trying to create a CUBE... The explanation below in brackets is only for clarity about each field. Kindly note that I am using the following table as my fact table. Let's call it tblFact

This table contains fields like transaction date, Product (which is sold), Product Family (to which the Product Belongs), Brand (of the product), Qty sold, Unit Price (at which each unit was sold), and some other fields.

I have created a Product dimension based on tblFact. I don't know if this is a good idea or not :confused: Is it okay and am I on the right track or should I base my Product Dimension on some other table (say tblProducts and then in the Cube editor link tblProducts with tblFact based on the ProductID field? Please guide.

Now coming to my last question:
Currently I am also creating my Time Dimension based on tblFact. Is this also a wrong approach?
1. Should I instead create the Time Dimension based on a different table (say tblTime) and again link up tblTime and tblFact in the Cube editor?

2. if yes, then how do I create tblTime from tblFact in a manner that it only contains all the transaction dates.

3. Assuming that I should take the tblTime approach, then should this table (tblTime) also contain the ProductID - representing the Product which was sold for each date in tblTime?

I realize that this is a lenghty post but reply and more importantly guidance from the experienced users will be greatly appreciated becuase I have recently started learning/playing around on the OLAP side of things and I know that this is the time that I get my foundations correct otherwise I'll end up getting used to some bad practice and will find it difficult to change my approach to cube designing later down the road.

So many thanks in advance and I eagerly look forward to reply from someone.

SQL Server 2008 :: White Spaces Not Getting Ignored For Plan Guide Matching?

May 1, 2015

In sp_create_plan_guide documentation, it's written:

When SQL Server matches the value of statement_text to batch_text and @parameter_name data_type [,...n ], or if @type = 'OBJECT', to the text of the corresponding query inside object_name, the following string elements are not considered:

White space characters (tabs, spaces, carriage returns, or line feeds) inside the string.
Comments (-- or /* */).
Trailing semicolons

On SQL Server 2008 SP3, I created a plan guide for a query. Now, if I execute the query exactly how it was defined in the plan guide, SQL Server match it and use the plan guide to optimize the query.

However, if I add just a space between a column name and an operator in the WHERE clause, the plan guide is ignored. How come it doesn't ignore the extra space, like mentioned in the documentation?
