Hi
Need to populate data from SQL Server in a pdf file which is basically a government form.
Data should be fetched from the SQL server database and needs to be displayed in a pdf file.
Advice me on how to implement this.
Suggest me if there is any other idea for implementing the same.
Thanks in advance
Hi!
I'm trying to setup a DTS that reads a flat file uses a Data Driven Query task and then selects ONLY records that does not exist in the database and then INSERT them to DB1.
This works fine but I need to add another functionality.
I need to create a record on another table(DB2) based on the freshly inserted records in DB1 using only some of the fields. How do I do it?
Is setting up a trigger possible so that everytime a record is inerted in DB1 it will automatically a populate DB2?
Flat file:
ID
Name
Phone
DB1
ID
Name
Phone
DB2
ID
PHone
Event (from 00 to 10)
NumActions (initialized to 0)
Please help.
Thanks.

I need to populate tables in my MS SQL 2000 DB with content from an excel file. I am not sure how this is done or how to format the excel file. If someone could help me with this it would be much appreciated!Thanks!

I have to populate some datas from sql server database and display it directly in a CSV Format or CSV file. When i run the project it should provide me an option to whether open or save or cancel the file. when i click open it should be opened and be viewed in a excel sheet in CSV format and when i click save it should ask the destination folder and should be saved there in CSV format and when i click cancel it should be cancelled and the application should be closed. pls note that all these actions should happen in the same browser and should not be redirected to anyother page. Can anybody give me the detailed description and code in Asp.Net using C# .It's very Urgent.
RegardsVijay.
I'm experienced using queries to extract data, but I'm new to actually creating tables, except through Access. I work with many records of data, so populating the data by hand is not an option. I created a test database (ValTest) and a test table within that database (ClaimTest). I created a text file (DataTest.txt) with the same layout as I defined for ClaimTest. I want to populate ClaimTest with the data from DataTest.txt. I was told the only way to do that using SQL Server Express was to use a utility called BCP. So I found a page on the Microsoft website talking about BCP. It gave some examples, so I opended up the Command Line window, pointed to the directory that contains the database and text file and typed "BCP ValTest.ClaimTest in DataTest.txt -T -c". I get 3 errors: Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2], Login timeout expired, and An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
I tried looking around and finding where I could change the settings, in case that was indeed the problem, but was unable to find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi All,
I have a startdate (01/11/2007) and a enddate (01/11/2008). I need to add dates into a table for everyday between these dates. Can anyone help?
I have a project that entails the following:
There are two separate SQL Server databases involved that reside on two different servers. One of the depts within our building wants to have building permit data imported from Permit Database on Server "A" to their own database on Server "B".
I dont think this will be an overly complicated process. There are only a few fields they want populated (5 or 6 tops). This will have to be ran every
weeknight via some sort of scheduled task in Windows or SQL.
I was just interested in seeing if anyone has had prior experience working on data transfer like this. I would like to know what would be the best and most efficient way to approach this.
Thanks in advance.
HI,
I populed my data base. But before I populate I created some reports beased on this DB. Now after I populating I can execute query and see results in Management studio or query designer. But When I change it the report to preview mode I can not see it.
Does anyone know why this is?

Hi all,
I have a table where I want to populate it with data (certain fields) from another table. But I only want to populate the table if there is data in a certain field in the table I wish to get the data from.
How exactly would I do this test? Would an I have to perform an IF statement to test if the field contains a value first?
Thanks

I have a date table(A) for every day of the year from 1990-2016 including the week number.There is another table(B) that has a number, date and week number.
I would like to join these 2 tables together, in order to populate the number from table B on every day of the week (of the week number in table B).
What makes it a little more complex is that the dates in table B not always correspond with the week number in the same row. Adding to the problem are some conditions:
- Every day of the week should have a number, and it should never be 0.
- If the 1st date of all rows in table B with the corresponding week number is not the monday of the week (but for example wednesday) it should start with this number on monday.
- Thousands of rows are in table B and for some of them the date corresponds with the week and for some of them they don't
- The rows can be grouped together using the week number.
Take the following example of table B:
B:
ID Date Number WeekNo
1 21-5-2015 25 21
2 23-5-2015 30 21
In this example the dates correspond with the weeknumber, because the 21st and the 23rd of may are week 21. By joining this with the date table (A), by using for example cross apply, I would hope to get the following result;
Date Number WeekNo
18-5 25 21
19-5 25 21
20-5 25 21
21-5 25 21
22-5 25 21
23-5 30 21
24-5 30 21
The same should work if the same example had the week number 22 in every row.
Take the following example of table B:
B:
ID Date Number WeekNo
1 21-5-2015 25 22
2 23-5-2015 30 22
In this example the dates do not correspond with the weeknumber, because the 21st and the 23rd of may are week 21 and not 22. By joining this with the date table (A), I would hope to get the following result;
Date Number WeekNo
25-5 30 22
26-5 30 22
27-5 30 22
28-5 30 22
29-5 30 22
30-5 30 22
31-5 30 22
Because the last result (ordered by date) of the week number 22 is 30, the whole week shows 30 on every day.
I am sorry for asking such a broad question, but I have been working on this and from what I can gather it can be done. My problem is that much of it has gone right over my head and I am getting more confused the more I read... I'm really, really confused...
Basically, I have a dataGridView that is populated with a number of fields from Table1 (ID, NameID, Status, Phone, Notes). This works fine, BUT I would like to access Table2 and have, where ID in Table2 = NameID in Table1, it load the First Name & Last Name into the dataGridView. I am able to load the information from Table 2 like so: SELECT NameFirst + ' ' + NameLast from Table2", but I can't get both Tables to work correctly.
I would like the dataGridView to be layed out like this:
ID NameID Name (NameFirst + NameLast) Status Phone Notes
I can't for the life of me understand or get this to work (Or for that matter even understand what I am trying to do...
Also, I am using Access 2007.
I would greatly appreciate some help, and possibly some explanation in laymans terms so that I might be able to understand this. I have read a lot about this, but for whatever reason it is just soooooo over my head that I can't follow it whatsoever.
Here is the code as it stands now:
//Populate the DataGridView
string conString = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + Environment.CurrentDirectory + @"DB.accdb;Jet OLEDBatabase Password=MyPassword;";
// create and open the connection
OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(conString);
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand();
command = conn.CreateCommand();
// create the DataSet
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
// run the query
command.CommandText = "SELECT ID AS [#], NameID AS [Name], Status AS [Status], Phone AS [Phone], Notes AS [Notes] FROM Table1 WHERE ID = " + textBox13.Text + ";";
OleDbDataAdapter adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter();
adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(command);
adapter.Fill(ds);
// close the connection
conn.Close();
bindingSource1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
dataGridView1.DataSource = bindingSource1;
// set the size of the dataGridView Columns
this.dataGridView1.Columns[0].Width = 10;
this.dataGridView1.Columns[1].Width = 100;
this.dataGridView1.Columns[2].Width = 100;
this.dataGridView1.Columns[3].Width = 100;
this.dataGridView1.Columns[4].Width = 176;
Any help and information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks Again,
I have just started to look at SQL and have a theory question that I could apply to a test I want to run. I have some legacy data from a previous project and the database was not designed properly (in my opinion). They have ONE field to capture City and State information. All the data is formatted City, State .
Does SQL have commands that can look at data in a field, strip out info before and info after a comma and then write that to other fields?
So, I would like to normalize this to take the data in a field called CityState and parse it, trim it and then populate two new fields 1) City and 2) State.
Thanks for your help!

Table Name: EmployeeDetails
Columns: EMpID - Date - WorkedHours
For each day I get details of number of hours worked by each employee in this table.
Now my HR wants a report with such columns
empid - Week - Month - Qtr
So, week will have Sum of hours worked by employee in that week
Month will have Sum of hours worked by employee in that Month
Qtr will have Sum of hours worked by employee in that Qtr
In 2000, BCP seemed the way to go. DTS packages would also work. My question is, in 2005, what is the best choice? I seem to remember that BCP ignored all referential integrity constraints, and applying them afterwords was a royal pain. I'm not a BCP expert by any means. Running this at the command line means using the DOS prompt correct?
What is 2005's answer to this?
Hi,
I have tables like the one below for my Stage and dimension tables:
Stage Table
accountid
name
address
Dimension Table
accountkey ---- surrogate key (DW key)
accountid ---- business key (transaction's primary key)
name
address
I used slowly changing dimension to detect the changes for the records inside my Dimension table. But I had a problem when a new record exists in the stage table. The accountkey is set as the primary key and it gets its value from a different table which stores the last account key that was created. I cannot load all the changes unless i have a business key. Is there a way that i can get the "last key" from a different table in the data flow area and then supply it together with the other fields in the new output branch of the slowly changing dimension?
cherriesh
thanks!
How do I correctly populate a fact table with the surrogate key from the dimension table?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have multiple web databases for storefront orders as linked servers on SQL Server 2008 R2. I need to organize the data for these orders into a structure that can be imported into my ERP application db frequently either on demand or periodically during the day. We are essentially trying to make the manual order entry process automated. My thought was to get the data into views that resemble the schema of the order table in my application db and then schedule a stored procedure with sql jobs or a load routine from within the ERP application that would insert data from the view into the order table.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a combo box where users select the customer name and can eithergo to the customer's info or open a list of the customer's orders.The RowSource for the combo box was a simple pass-through query:SELECT DISTINCT [Customer ID], [Company Name], [contact name],City,Region FROM Customers ORDER BY Customers.[Company Name];This was working fine until a couple of weeks ago. Now wheneversomeone has the form open, this statement locks the entire Customerstable.I thought a pass-through query was read-only, so how does this do atable lock?I changed the code to an unbound rowsource that asks for input of thefirst few characters first, then uses this SQL statement as therowsource:SELECT [Customer ID], [Company Name], [contact name],City, Region Fromdbo_Customers WHERE [Company Name] like '" & txtInput & "*' ORDER BY[Company Name];This helps, but if someone types only one letter, it could still bepulling a few thousand records and cause a table lock.What is the best way to populate a large combo box? I have too muchdata for the ADODB recordset to use the .AddItem methodI was trying to figure out how to use an ADODB connection, so that Ican make it read-only to eliminate the locking, but I'm striking outon my own.Any ideas would be appreciated.Roy(Using Access 2003 MDB with SQL Server 2000 back end)

Hi
I am quite new to the complexities of MS SQL and have a problem, I would like to resolve. I have 2 tables with a unique identifier in both and want to populate a new table with information from both, but the second table I would like to populate just some fields that have a DOB eg
Table 1:
uniqueId
Name
Address
Table2:
uniqueId
Type
Setting
example of content for Table 2:
uniqueId Type Setting
123 DOB 03/04/74
234 TFN 12345678
567 POA Mr Smith
So the new table needs to be populated with a ll of info in table 1 and has a new field called DOB so only the clients with a DOB should populate this field, if the client in Table 1 has a TFN reference, this record should be added to the new table but no value needs to be entered eg

I have a customer who is running a script that generates a custom report. IT is not populating as it should and is returning zeros for everything.
I have tested the the script in the office and it is populating as intended. I have run a debug on the script and it is executing the correct SQL commands. The debug results for the customer and for the one tested in the office are identical. For some reason, the script is not writing to file but is looking at the correct data. I suspect that it is an environment issue most likely on the SQL level.
Could this be an issue with character set? How can I check their character set and language preferences? I understand they are set during installation.
They are using the same collation as us.
What else can I check as I am running low on ideas.
I advised the client to create a new DB and restore over the top. The script was then tested and it was found to be working fine. As it was given an inappropriate name (ie test), I advised to create a new DB with a production name and restore over the top again. We have since returned back to where we started as the report is generating only zeros.

Have two tables: table1 and table2
Working with two main columns in both tables: D_ID and C_ID.
Table1 has D_ID populated and C_ID is not.
Table2 is a cross reference table with both D_ID and C_ID values within.
Looking for best way to populate C_ID in table1 from C_ID values in table2 where table1.D_ID = table2.D_ID.
There are too many values to do a case in stored procedure which has been my best practice. Trying to up my game with using SSIS 2012 as well.
