Preserve ROWGUID Column During Publication Delete
Apr 30, 2007
Hello,
I am looking to preserve the ROWGUID column that is created automatically when a table is added to a publication as I have noticed that the column is removed and readded (with new values) each time the publication is deleted and recreated. We are planning on using the values in the rowguid column for a non-replication purpose, and don't wish the column to be removed or the values to be reset in the event the 'owning' publication is dropped for whatever reason. I've done some research and have identified the preserve_rowguidcol column of the sysmergearticles table as a candidate for achieving the desired goal. Before moving forward, I wanted to ask for input regarding this. Are there any best practices I've overlooked on this topic? Neither Google nor this forum's search results yield any real discussion on this topic.
Thanks!

What query should I run?
1. To determine whether a column is a rowguid or not using C# .NET 1.1
2. To add/modify column information and be able to set/change:
- Primary key
- Column Name
- Data Type
- Length
- Allow Null
- Default value
- Precision
- Scale
- Identity
- Identity Seed
- Identity Increment
- Row guid
Thanks a lot!

Hi all and I appreciate any help
I recently been assigned to a project that has an ms-access front end and sql server 2000 sp4 as the database engine.
The database was replicated (merge replication) but for some reason they drop replication and when they tried to put it back on they got allot of problems and so they paused it.
My task now is to make it work again. After allot of reading I desided to clean the database and start from the beginning. Using some scripts and instructions on a copy of the database I cleaned all the tables related to merge replication but when I went back to ms-access to update a record I got an error
"invalid column name 'rowguid'" . I checked all my tables in my database but I find not such column as it was dropped using the scripts.
Any ideas that I can use?
Thanks allot,
George

I'm trying to set up a merge publication in MSSQL 2005 SP1.
I have a database which I have successfully made into a merge publication. When I run the snapshot agent, several articles are processed successfully, then I encounter an error with the following: Invalid column name 'rowguid'
Note that none of the tables contain 'rowguid' columns before this process - I let MSSQL automatically create these as needed.
The replication monitor details the following error:
Error messages:

Hi all,
After I setup the merge replication in SQL SERVER 7.0, there is a rowguid column (datatype uniqueidentifier) inserted into each table in the both the source and destination database.
I need to get rid of the rowguid column in all tables. I deleted the replication, but the column still existed.
Is there an easy way to get rid of all the rowguid column in the database? Thanks for your reponse in advanced.

I tried to drop a merge replication publication and it is giving me an invalid object name dbo.ms_mergeagents message. I tried to drop using:
SSMS
sp_dropmergepublication
sp_replicationdboption
I got the last two from Microsoft KB article 324401. The subscription was never created because it gave another error invalid object_name msmerge_subscriptions. I can create new publications but not drop the existing ones.
Please assist...

Hi there,
I have setup merge replication which successfully synchronizes with a group of desktop users using SQL Compact Edition.
However now I have setup Article Filters and when I attempt to regenerate the snapshot I get the following error:
Invalid column name 'rowguid'.
Failed to generate merge replication stored procedures for article 'AssignedCriteria'.
When I look at publication properties at the Articles page.. All my tables have the rowguid uniqueidentifier successfully added to tables and selected as a compulsory published column, apart from the table above "AssignedCriteria".. Even when I attempt to select this column in the article properties page and press ok, when I come back it is deselected again. ( The Rowguid column is however physically added to the table)
I have scripted the publication SQL and then totally reinstalled from scratch, including the database but for some reason it doesn't like this table. I remove the article filters, but still this "rowguid" is never "selected" in article properties.
We are using Uniqueidentifiers in other columns as well for historical reasons, but this doesn't appear to be a problem in other tables..
DDL For this problematic table is as follows
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AssignedCriteria](
[AssignedCriteria] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[CriteriaName] [varchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[TargetScore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[HRPlan] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[ActualScore] [numeric](18, 0) NULL,
[Criteria] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[Employee] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[IsActive] [bit] NULL,
[addDate] [datetime] NULL,
[totalscore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[isCalc] [bit] NULL,
[Weight] [decimal](18, 2) NULL,
[ProfileDetail] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[rowguid] [uniqueidentifier] ROWGUIDCOL NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [MSmerge_df_rowguid_7FF25DF903B6415FBFF24AC954BC88E4] DEFAULT (newsequentialid()),
CONSTRAINT [PK_AssignedCriteria] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[AssignedCriteria] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
Thanks.

Hi, everyone,
I am new in SQL server 2005. I had setup SQL server 2005 P2P replication. Somehow it did not work one of two way replication. I tried to delete the publication. However I could not do it. have the same problem. When I tried to delete the publication, I got the publication " " does not exist.[SQL server error: 20026]. I tried to use sp_droppublication, it gave me error "the database is not enabled for publication". Nevertheless, I can see the publication in MS SQL Management Studio and Publication monitor with OK status. I could not find the distribution database either.
Could you anyone has ideas to delete this publication? I am sorry I am not a programmer. Please give me more detail explanation if you can. Thanks.

Hi, I'm a noob who sucks at programming, and sucks even more when it comes to database.
I'm operating a small website with an SQL Server database that drives my shopping cart. I want to close this website down, but I don't want to lose all the data in the database in case I want to do something in the future.
How do you backup the entire database into a file so i might be able to import it at later times? Do I have to do this with SQL, T-SQL, or the manager?

Hey there - I have a textbox (C# 1.1 OR 2.0) that I want to take it's contents and post to a datatype of some sort in SQL2k5 and have it preserve the breaks (return keystrokes) so when the data is presented, it can hold a paragraph form. Is this possible?something like this: <asp:TextBox id="txtContent" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="10"></asp:TextBox>Right now, I'm using nvarchar(4000) as the datatype but if I were to type, say 3 paragraphs, the data returned in the datagrid I bind that data to shows only one long string of data. For the time being, I have been puttting HTML formatting tags in the content I'm posting to the DB, but ultimately don't want to have to do that. I don't want to have to use a Text Editor (like FTB or FCKeditor) if necessary because they seem very much involved for the simple need I have which is to preserve paragraph formatting.So, is there another datatype in SQL2k5 that I should be using? Or are there simple code snippets I can utilize that will recognize a carriage return as a </p><p> tag?I'm trying to migrate to 2.0 as much as possible, so any C# code would be greatly appreciated in 2.0!Thanks for your help!iSheahan

Not exactly a TSQL question. Query Editor in Management Studio keeps reformatting my sql code every time I hit save, making the code much harder to read. Is there a way to preserve line breaks and indentation in the SQL when creating a view? Thanks.

How do I move data from one server and append to the same table structure on a second server and preserve the foreign key relationships. In other words TableB.TableA_ID references TableA.ID. The IDENTITY ID numbers themselves will change but they must continue to match up on the destination server the way they did on the source server.
I can do this using procedural programming but that is usually not the way to go.
(btw, this is a cleaned up version of a question I tacked on to another thread)

Hello,
I've a table with one column specified as rowguid.
An insert into this table is done in a stored procedure, which should return the new rowguid by an output parameter.
How can I obtain the autoassigned rowguid of the inserted record?
is there something like ident_current which is used for identity-columns?
Thanks in advance

I have following XQuery:
declare @xmldoc as xml
select @xmldoc = '<Text>This is firstline<Break />This is second line<Break />This is third line</Text>'
select @xmldoc.value('(/Text)[1]','varchar(max)')Result is: "This is firstlineThis is second lineThis is third line"
My problem is, that the <Break /> tags within the text are removed in the conversion to varchar. How to preserve the such tags in the varchar output? Or to get the <Break /> tags "translated" to e.g. CHAR(10)?

I spent huge amount of time figuring out how to preserve lading and trailing white spaces on report display without success. Can anyone help me here?
My problem is I have data with leading and or trailing white spaces and I need to show it as is. In designer preview it shows correct values. As soon as report is published and accessed on web, it truncates the whitespaces . I had a look at source, it shows values are correctly fetched(with spaces) but are ignored while rendering. I also tried replacing blank space with , however it reads this as &nbsp;.
I am using asp.net 2.0 and SQL serer 2005 reporting services.

I have tables and a function as representated by the code below. The names  for objects here are just for representation and not the actual names of objects. Table RDTEST may have one or multiple values for RD for each PID. So the function GIVERD will return one or multiple values of RD for each value of PID passed to it.
When I run the following query, I get the required result except the rows for CID 500 for which PID is NULL in table T1. I want the rows for CID 500 as well with PID values as NULL.
SELECT Â A.CID,Â
A.ANI,
A.PID,
B.RD
FROM T1 AS A CROSS APPLY GIVERD(A.PID) B
CREATE TABLE [DBO].[RDTEST](
[PID] [INT] NULL,
[RD] [INT] NULL
)

Guys, i have a table that one of the columns (Email To) is
a concatenated list of email addresses separated by semi colons ";".
i.e.:
rrb7@yahoo.com;richard.butcher@sthou.com;administr ator@sthou.com
etc like that.
each row varies with one exception. administrator@sthou.com is in each one.
is there a simple way thru sql or T-SQL to delete that "administrator@sthou.com" part? or should i call each row individually into say, a VB.net form using a split with the deliminator ";"
and then looping thru and updating each row?
thanks again for any easy answer
