What Is The Purpose Of The ROWGUIDCOL Property?
Dec 4, 2007Greetings,What is the point of Microsoft defining a ROWGUIDCOL property that canbe attached to a 'uniqueidentifier' column? This is defined as a columnthat is 'globally unique', but doesn't the uniqueidentifier datatypealready guarantee that? To make matters more confusing, they tell youin Books Online to add a Unique constraint because ROWGUIDCOL does notguarantee uniqueness...so what's the point?Apparently the only functionality attached to this property is that onlyone such column can exist per table and that it can be queried using the$ROWGUIDCOL keyword in SQL.Can anyone tell me the rationale for when to use this and when not to,or what the purpose of this property is?Thanks,Sam BendayanDB ArchitectUltimate SoftwareJoin Bytes!*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

Get The Search Term From A URL For Reporting Purpose
Jul 10, 2007
Hi guys,
I have a field called URL in my table. I want to get the SEARCH TERM from a given URL and create a report based on that information. I'm getting difficulties, because the URL have different format depending up on the search engine
that the users use to browse. Some of the search engines are "google",".excite.com", "search.msn.","search.netscape", "search.lycos", "altavista", "search.yahoo" and many more.
Examples of the URLs from google :
http://www.google.com/search?q=S26+Collet+Chuck&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-USfficial&start=30&sa=N -- The search term is S26 Collet Chuck
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2006-02,GGLG:en&q=kt21+kia -- The search term is kt21 kia
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Slagger+burning+Tables -- The search term is Slagger burning Tables
Does anybody have a sql query or used a CLR functions to get the SEARCH TERM from different search engine (URL).
Thanks in advance.

Transact SQL :: Self Linked Server For Purpose Of Alias?
Oct 2, 2015 basically, we have two databases, one with fix name, eg. DB1 in all environments, and another is named with prefix based on environment, eg. DB2_DEV, DB2_TEST, that is generated by some managed application.
Then we have queries or view/SPs residing in the first database, eg. DB1 that access database resources from the second database, DB2_***. Both databases are residing in the same SQL instance.
Currently, we have hardcoded the database name in the query but would prefer not to manually rename or write other scripts to update the query with the correct database name when deploying to other environments.
For example:
SELECT * FROM DB2_DEV.dbo.vAccounts
When deploy to TEST, we need to update the query to:
SELECT * FROM DB2_TEST.dbo.vAccounts
So, I looked at Synonyms but it seems it can only create 'alias' for tables or views, and not database.
Hence, last thought is to create self linked server, so I can write my query like below and setup the linked server accordingly.
SELECT * FROM SRCDB.dbo.vAccounts
Any consideration to think of, eg. performance, security, etc?
Stored Procedures Or C# Code For My Purpose (Data Synchronisation)
Jul 4, 2005Hi all,
I am in the position where I have to transfer data from an old database
schema to a new database schema. During the transfer process alot of
logic has to be performed so that the old data gets inserted into the
new tables and are efficiently done so that all foreign keys are
remained and newly created keys (as the new schema is Normalised alot
more) are correct.
Is it best if I perform all this logic in a Stored Procedure or in C# code (where the queries will also be run)?

SQL Server 2012 :: Dual Purpose OUTPUT Parameter
Oct 21, 2014Assume I built a stored proc (dbo.testproc) that will return the OUTPUT parameter @RandomInteger.
I could pass a specific value for the parameter...
EXEC dbo.testproc 7
Or I could return a value from the proc...
DECLARE @ReturnInteger
EXEC dbo.testproc @RandomInteger = @ReturnInteger OUTPUT
SELECT @ReturnInteger
But I want to do both which, if this actually worked, might look like this...
DECLARE @RandomInteger
SET @RandomInteger = 7
EXEC dbo.testproc @RandomInteger = @ReturnInteger OUTPUT
SELECT @ReturnInteger
I want to pass a specific value and return the result from the proc. Do I need to use two parameters for this?

SQL Server 2012 :: Interpreting JSON Data For Reporting Purpose
May 16, 2014We have a gaming application which generates transactional data in MongoDB which eventually sends the data to SQL Server and it is in JSON format. This data needs to be used for reporting tool but visualizing this data in forms of a table is proving to be difficult. One example of a column we receive is:
{responseCode:0 transactionId:null amount:200.00 message:account balance }
We need to build a sort of ETL or batch job but need to interpret this in a form which SQL Server can understand.
