I have run a NOT EXISTS query comparing a table in test and production, to determine which records have been added to the table in production so I can import those records to test. The count(*) from both tables has a difference of 766 records but the query is showing 768. I am trying to find the easiest/quickest way to identify the orphan records.
View 2 RepliesHi Folks,
I have a 2000 remote server that polls the 6.5 server every 2 mins to check for access violation on the server via a query analyzer connection. It then uses xp_sendamil and net send for notifications.
The problem is, I've started to get loads of orphan connections from the remote server, which will not kill when attempted.
Any ideas, apart from stopping and starting sql service?
Like orphan users, is there a way to figure out orphan logins?

Hi
Just logged on to one of the SQL Servers.I see a lot of logins there who dont have any database access. Its a SQL Server 2000 box.
Can someone please help me with a script that would get me a list of such Orphan Logins (not orphan users).
Thanks

Hi,Say, a database has all the FK constraints created properly, would sqlserver 2000 save this kind of meta data into sysforeignkeys table? Orit depends on ...?I'm trying to find all the orphen records in a given database via metadata.TIA.
View 7 Replies View RelatedNot sure if this is the correct place to ask. But it made sense to start here.
I have a legacy stored procedure that had been running under SQL2005 for some time correctly. Now it fails as it is trying to deal with user tables listed in the sys.objects view. The issue appears to be an individual table that no longer exists in the database but is still has a record visible from sys.objects. This entry is an orphan. My question is how do I remove the orphan record from sys.objects?
Thank you
Hello,
I have a VB program which uses ADODB.Connection to make connection to SQL Server DB.
However, under some circumstances, orphan / ghost connections remain in DB even after the VB program closed.
Here are the facts...
(1) Windows Server 2000 + SQL Server 2000
- run the VB program and made connection to the DB, leave it for 3 minutes, the connection closes when the program closes.
- run the VB program and made connection to the DB, leave it for 3 hours, the connection closes when the program closes.
(2) Windows Server 2003 + SQL Server 2000
- run the VB program and made connection to the DB, leave it for 3 minutes, the connection closes when the program closes.
- run the VB program and made connection to the DB, leave it for 3 hours, the connection does not close even after the program is closed.
Does anyone know if there is any problem with Windows Server 2003 + SQL Server 2000 using ADODB.Connection?
Or is there some kind of "timeout" parameter for which I can set to resolve such issue?
Any help is appreciated!!!
Thanks & Regards,

I am using a table to display a very large amount of data (a basic list of information) with groups (the group header repeats on each page). Each of the groups can span multiple pages, The problem I have is that in the printed mode (or PDF) the group title may show at the bottom of some pages with no details (there may not be enough space for a detail row) and then the heading repeats on the next with the detail. How do I prevent this widow problem?
This can be controled in Access and Brio but not here seems a little odd.
Here's the DB Connection code for a site (Web.config file)
I was wondering how I could specify an idle timeout or orphan timeout.
I tried idle timeout=x and kept getting errors

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..
declare @table table (
ParentID INT,
ChildID INT,
Value float
)
INSERT INTO @table
SELECT 1,1,1.2
[code]....
This case ParentID - Child 1 ,1 & 2,2 and 3,3 records are called as parent where as null , 1 is child whoose parent is 1 similarly null,2 records are child whoose parent is 2 , .....
Now my requirement is to display parent records with value ascending and display next child records to the corresponding parent and parent records are sorted ascending
--Final output should be
PatentID ChildID VALUE

HI,
I have been trying to solve the locking problem from past couple of days. Please help mee!!
Scenario:
--------------
I have a SSIS package in which 2 data flow tasks. 1st data flow task deletes records from a 5 tables and the 2nd data flow task should insert records into 1 of the five tables after the success of 1st data flow task. This scenario runs in Transacation.
The above scenrio in the 2nd data flow task hangs in runtime. It does not complete. with sp_who2 command i could see that there is an intent share lock(LK_M_IS) on the table and the status is SUSPENDED.
I dont know how to come out of this locking. Please help.

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).
I need a little help here..I want to transfer ONLY new records AND update any modified recordsfrom Oracle into SQL Server using DTS. How should I go about it?a) how do I use global variable to get max date.Where and what DTS task should I use to complete the job? Data DrivenQuery? Transform data task? How ? can u give me samples. Perhaps youcan email me the Demo Package as well.b) so far, what I did was,- I have datemodified field in my Oracle table so that I can comparewith datelastrun of my DTS package to get new records- records in Oracle having datemodified >Max(datelastrun), and transferto SQL Server table.Now, I am stuck as to where should I proceed - how can I transfer theserecords?Hope u can give me some lights.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query similar to the following. The intent of this query is to retrieve the top 6 records meeting the specified criteria (LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status Start' OR LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status End' ) based on most recent dates. Please keep in mind that I expect to return up to 6 records for each unique LogProcessName. This could be thousands of different LogProcessNames with up to 6 records for each.
1) The table I am executing against currently is very large in size and thus takes a long time to execute against. It would seem there must be a more efficient query to get the results I am looking for?
2) CTE doesn't work on SQL 2000. I need a query that does.
3) I cannot modify the database itself in the process.

SELECT [LogProcessName], [LogBody], [LogDate], [LogGUID], row_number()

SELECT *

WHERE RN = 1 OR RN = 2 OR RN = 3 OR RN = 4 OR RN = 5 OR RN = 6

Does anybody else have any idea that would yield the results that I am looking for and take into account items 1-3 above?

Hi,
I have to search the records after the records populated.
I mean to say, i have displayed records in report, if i enter some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular records, instead of highlighting the values, is it possible to display only those particular records.
For example, say i have 50 records in a page,i entered some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular 5 records one by one which match the criteria i have entered in the texbox, instead of that i have to display only those 5 records.
Please tell me how to implement in this report,
Thanks and Regards

Ok, I'm really new at this, but I am looking for a way to automatically insert new records into tables. I have one primary table with a primary key id that is automatically generated on insert and 3 other tables that have foreign keys pointing to the primary key. Is there a way to automatically create new records in the foreign tables that will have the new id? Would this be a job for a trigger, stored procedure? I admit I haven't studied up on those yet--I am learning things as I need them. Thanks.

I am trying to write a query that will retrieve all students of a particular class and also any rows in HomeworkLogLine if they exist (but return null if there is no row). I thought this should be a relatively simple LEFT join but I've tried every possible combination of joins but it's not working.
SELECT
Student.StudentSurname + ', ' + Student.StudentForename AS Fullname,
HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineTimestamp,
HomeworkLog.HomeworkLogDescription,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY HomeworkLogLine.HomeworkLogLineStudentID ORDER BY
[Code] ...
It's only returning two rows (the students where they have a row in the HomeworkLogLine table).
I'm looking for a way of taking a query which returns a set of date time fields (probable maximum of 20 rows) and looping through each value to see if it exists in a separate table.
E.g.
Query 1
Select ID, Person, ProposedEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyOptions
where person = 'me'
Table
Select Person, ExistingEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyTimetable
where person ='me'
Loop through Query 1 and if it finds ANY matching Dayfield AND Timefield in Query/Table 2, return the ProposedEvent (just as a message, the loop could stop there), if no match a message saying all is fine can proceed to process form blah blah.
I'm essentially wanting somebody to select a bunch of events in a form, query 1 then finds all the days and times those events happen and check that none of them exist in the MyTimetable table.
I'm at a bit of a loss here. My T-SQL skills are not up to the task at hand here :(
I've got company records in one table and SIC codes that correlate to the companies linked by the company ID. So, I can run the query, but the output I get is multiple records for each company, because some companies have multiple SIC codes associated with them.
I understand how to get only one record, but what I want to do is create a result set that has all the SIC codes associated with one company. Possibly in a comma seperated list, that would count as one field.
Anyone have any idea how to bring back all the SIC codes for one company as one variable (or multiple variables, but in one record)?
Thank you very much for any help,

I cannot figure out how to write a sql statement to display the multiple records of multiple records. I know that doesn't make much sense so let me explain:
This problem involves two tables. They both reference (FK) data in a third table (tblDepartment).
Here are the fields and some test data in each of the two important tables:
=============
tblDepartment =============================
departmentIDuserID
-----------------------------
1user1
2user1
1user2
2user3
3user3
3user4
===========
tblRequest ========================================
requestIDdepartmentIDuserID
----------------------------------------
11user1
21user2
32user3
43user3
53user4
62user1
What I am trying to do is display all requests associated with the multiple departments of "user1". In the above example, I would want to see (after a select statement):
requestIDdepartmentIDuserID
----------------------------------------
11user1
21user2
32user3
52user1
We don't see the requests of user3 or user4 when the given request's departmentID is not a department associated with user1.
Hopefully someone out there understands this. I've never had to write a select statement like this before, so I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around it. Thanks for any help!
Hi,
I have one table which holds an ID, a name, and a parentID (which can either the same as the main ID or it's one of the other ID in that tbl)
At the moment I do a select on the records whos main ID is the same as the ParentID. This gives me an initial list of records who are the "Main" parent records (i.e they are not the child of any other record..
so far so good.
However, what I need to do is for each record work out if they themselves have any Child records. (only some have).
so at the mo I end up with a results set as this:
1 Boats
2 Jumpers
3 Trousers
4 Ships
What I want to end up is something like
1 Boats True
2 Jumpers False
3 Trousers True
4 Ships True
Where the true or false is if the record has any child records..
Any ideas?
A basic select statement to be used.
I can't get my head around this:I want to select all IDs from table A that do not have a related record intable B according to some condition:Table A contains, say, Parents and table B contains Children. I want toselect all Parents that have no children called "Sally" (this is a noddyexample, reminds me of being at Uni again :) ).Any ideas?Thanks

I already submitted this type of question before and i receive reply. But unfortunately i found out errors when performing on my system.
My problem regarding to this one:
Suppose i have two databases with same tables with different records and I would like to copy the records from one database to another data and vice-versa. So that both the tables contains same number of records inside the tables.
Example:
Database1 (EmployeeTable) contains 6 records.
Database2 (EmployeeTable) contains 10 records.
It should copy only those records which is not present in each other database. No duplicate records.
Before i was recommend to use Primary key, if it is not present use index.
Hope this time i could solve my problem.
Thanks.
