QA Tells Me My Table Is Ambiguous
Jul 23, 2005
Can someone help with this syntax? I have a non-sensicle example
below, but it illustrates the problem if you copy/paste into QA.
**********************************
use pubs
go
update authors set address = 'some address'
from authors a
inner join authors a2 on a.zip = a2.zip
---------------------------------------------
Server: Msg 8154, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
The table 'authors' is ambiguous.

Hi all,A (possibly dumb) question, but I've had no luck finding a definitiveanswer to it. Suppose I have two tables, Employees and Employers, whichboth have a column named "Id":Employees-Id-FirstName-LastName-SSNetc.Employers-Id-Name-Addressetc.and now I perform the following join:SELECT Employees.*, Employers.*FROM Employees LEFT JOIN Employers ON (Employees.Id=Employers.Id)The result-set will contain two "Id" columns, so SQL Server willdisambiguate them; one column will still be called "Id", while theother will be called "Id1." My question is, how are you supposed toknow which "Id" column belongs to which table? My intuition tells me,and limited testing seems to indicate, that it depends on the order inwhich the table names show up in the query, so that in the aboveexample, "Id" would refer to Employees.Id, while "Id1" would refer toEmployers.Id. Is this order guaranteed?Also, why does SQL Server use such a IMO brain-damaged technique tohandle column name conflicts? In MS Access, it's much morestraightforward; after executing the above query, you can use"Employees.Id" and "Employers.Id" (and more generally,"TableNameOrTableAlias.ColumnName") to refer to the specific "Id"column you want, instead of "Id" and "Id1" -- the"just-tack-on-a-number" strategy is slightly annoying when dealing withcomplex queries.--Mike S

Dear experts,
while i'm trying to insert data , i got error like
Ambiguous column name...that is related to joins
the query is
INSERT INTO MATABLE044
SELECT newid(), ledger.COLUMN002, wh.COLUMN001, Loc.COLUMN005, ledger.COLUMN008, ledger.COLUMN009, ledger.COLUMN010, ledger.COLUMN011,0,

AND COLUMN009 NOT IN ( SELECT COLUMN006 FROM MATABLE044)
what is the meaning
thank you very much

Hi,
I have a package that I migrated from DTS. There are several "execute SQL" tasks that take an Input parameter of "myVariable", which is a string defined at the package level and has a default value assigned to it.
However, the package is throwing this error:
Error 1 Validation error. Err LogComletion : Failed to lock variable "myVariable" for read access with error 0xC001F032 "The variable name is ambiguous because multiple variables with this name exist in different namespaces. Specify namespace-qualified name to prevent ambiguity.".
How come I cannot use this variable when defined at the package level? If I move the variable to the task level, it works fine, but I want to re-use the variable in several places in the package.
Thanks

I'm planning an upgrade to SQL Server 2012 and noticed the following.
We have a query that includes a duplicate column name in the SELECT statement. This query happens to work in a db we have that is set to SQL 2000 (80) compatibility level, but the same exact query fails when I set the db to SQL 2008 (100) compatibility level.
The error is (ColumnName is just an example):

Hello,
I'm brand new to this forum and I'm stuck. We've got a query which queries three tables: booking, catheter and patients. The following (dodgy) query has pulled off the data for years, without problems:
SELECT
CARDIAC_CATHETER.CARDIAC_CATHETER_ID,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.OPERATOR1,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE,
BOOKING.STATUS,
BOOKING.TEST_DATE AS BOOKING_TEST_DATE,
BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.ITEM_NO,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.BILLING_CATEGORY,
PATIENTS.REFERRING_PHYSICIAN1,
PATIENTS.HOSPITAL_UNIT_NUMBER
FROM
(CARDIAC_CATHETER INNER JOIN PATIENTS ON CARDIAC_CATHETER.PATIENT_ID = PATIENTS.PATIENT_ID)
LEFT OUTER JOIN BOOKING ON PATIENTS.PATIENT_ID = BOOKING.PATIENT_ID AND 'CATHETER' = BOOKING.CLINIC AND BOOKING.STATUS <> 'CANCELLED' AND BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME >= (CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE - 1)
AND BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME < (CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE + 1)
WHERE
CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE > '2005-04-01' AND CARDIAC_CATHETER.BILLING_CATEGORY LIKE '3%'
About 2500 perfect rows and 12 rows which have duplicate catheter id values. There are six pairs of duplicated records. It's only the cardiac_catheter.catheter_id and cardiac_catheter.test_date which are duplicated - the first row shown below contains correct values, the second doens't. The other values returned, on both rows, are correct. Here is some sample data:
CARDIAC_CATHETER_ID
cat_id1234
cat_id1234
CARDIAC_CATHETER_TEST_DATE
19/12/2005 13:17
19/12/2005 13:17
BOOKING_TEST_DATE
19/12/2005 13:33
19/12/2005 08:46
PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME
20/12/2005 10:30
19/12/2005 08:46
CLINIC
CATHETER
CATHETER
I know the query is rubbish. Has anyone got any idea how it can be improved and sorted so that we don't pull back ambiguous data?
Thanks,

Hi,
I am getting an ambiguous column name error, but I am aliasing the column in question. The problem seems to be that I'm trying to use the same column in 2 inner joins:
select trackprice.id from trackprice tp
inner join track tr on tp.trackid = tr.id
inner join trackstorage ts on ts.trackid = tr.id
inner join ... etc ....
.... gives me the error 'ambiguous column name trackid' - can this not be done with inner joins this way?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi,
I'm trying simple code:
declare @varbinary varbinary(8000)
set @varbinary = 2592
print len( @varbinary )
number length
2590 4 bytes
2591 4 bytes
2592 3 bytes ????
2593 4 bytes
All number in range 1 - 9000 has length 4 bytes except these numbers:
32,288,544,800,1056,1312,1568,1824,2080,2336,2592,2848,3104,3360,3616,3872,4128,4384,4640,4896,5152,5408,5664,5920,6176,6432,6688,6944,7200,7456,7712,7968,8480,8736,8992
These numbers has length 3 bytes !
Why?
I´m using varbinary variable to transport ID values and parsing in loop
set @cnt = len( @binEmpIDList ) / 4 -- 4 length
....
insert into @List( ID ) values( substring( @varbinary, @i * 4 + 1, 4 ) )
...
but this algorithm malfunctioning in enumerated numbers.
Please help, how correct this.
ID values in @varbinary too much. I cannot using convert varbinary to bigint and convert bigint to string.

I'm a newb and this has been giving me a trouble for a while.
Code Block
SELECT class.classcode, classname, instrFirst, instrLast, csDay, CONVERT(nvarchar(30), csStart, 8), CONVERT(nvarchar(30), csEnd, 8)
FROM class, class_section, instructor
WHERE class.classcode = class_section.classcode
Group By className
Order By classname, csNum;
Msg 8120, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Column 'class.classCode' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
class and instructor and class_section are their own tables but classcode and instrID are foreign keys on the class_section table. If anyone can explain this as clearly as possible that would be great (the help examples are usually too complicated)

Hi
I have a query that is exhibiting a strange behaviour on different databases.
I've got something like this ...
select a.col, ...
from tab1 as a inner join ...
union
select a.col, ...
from tab1 as a inner join ...
order by col
I know how to fix the problem, I make the last line read "order by a.col" ... that is understood.
However, on some databases I get an error and on others I don't. All databases are on the same server instance which is sql server 2005 developer (developer version isn't relevant as it happens on customer machines too).
I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas why it is 'random'. It's as though the statement is being compiled differently on different databases ... what is influencing that ?
I'm fishing for a way to create a workaround, so if anyone has any ideas it might push me down the road of understanding why.
The real code is way too big to include here and it's not really relevant.
As a clue to what I'm looking for, if I copy the database to another database using SSIS, the resultant database doesn't cause the error despite being logically the same.
Presumably it is some physical or security difference that is causing the error to occur.
Thanks if you have any ideas,
Richard.

I am trying to join the 3 as follows:
select DISTINCT destination_id, classified_job_id from classified_job_destinations inner join classified_jobs
on classified_jobs.classified_jobs_id = classified_jobs.classified_job_id
LEFT JOIN destinations_old
ON destinations_old.destination_id = classified_job_destinations.destination_id WHERE classified_jobs.classified_jobs_id = '438'
but I am getting the error: #1052 - Column 'destination_id' in field list is ambiguous

Hi,
This could well be down to my _limited_ knowledge of XSD.
I have a document and SXD supplied by 3rd party.
Both documents are valid, according to XMLSpy.
When I give the document and xsd to SSIS XML Source it complains about ambiguous complex types.
In the XML doc there is an element called Allowance that has child elements.
There is also a group which references many other elements including Allowance.
When I remove the group, SSIS stops complaining about allowance.
Would the problem stem from SSIS creating an output called Allowance ('cause of it's children), getting to the group and again, 'cause allowance has children, try create another output called Allowance.
Is my understanding of this correct? Is there a work around for a situation like this?
The only thing I can come up with is deleting the group....
Possible to alias an element? Could alias the Group > Allowance g_Allowance.
Cheers,
Crispin

"Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates that......"
In my stored proc i'm checking if error occured goto :Error_handler where i do ROLLBACK TRAN
/* Its failing at MemberID = tTempResult.MemberID bcoz of Ambiguous column name. I know i have to use RebateInstanceItem.MemberID=tTempResult.MemberID */
here is my stored proc
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ExportFile

@intYear INT,
@dtFirstDayOfMonth DATETIME

I have some logic here that will select rows into temporary table

I am using SQL Server 2005 and trying to create a linked server on Oracle 10. I used the commands below:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'test1',
@srvproduct = 'Oracle',
@provider = 'MSDAORA',
@datasrc = 'testsource'
exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname = 'test1',
@useself = 'false',
@rmtuser='sp',
@rmtpassword='sp'
When I execute
select * from test1...COUNTRY
I get the error. "The OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "...." does not contain the table "COUNTRY". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table."
The 'sp' user I am connecting is the owner of the table. What could be the problem ?
Thanks a lot.

I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual
(empno,
accrued_vacation,
accrued_sick_effective_date,
accrued_sick,
import_date)
[Code] ....

For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

Hi all,
The following dbo.Tables of Northwind.mdf in my .SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server Management Studio Express) are missing:
dbo.Categories
dbo.CustomerCustomerDemo
dbo.CustomerDemographics
dbo.Customers
dbo.Employees
dbo.EmployeeTerritories
dbo.Order Details
dbo.Orders
dbo.Products
dbo.Regions
dbo.Shippers
dbo.Suppliers
dbo.Territories.
But, I have these dbo.Tables in a different Database "xyzDatabase". How can I copy each of these dbo.Tables to the another blank dbo.Table of Northwind Database?
I right clicked on the dbo.Categories and I saw the following thing:
dbo.Categories
New Table...
Modify
Open Table
Script Table as |> CREATYE To |>
DROP To |>
SELECT To |>
INSERT To |> New Query Editor Window
File....
Clipboard
UPDATE To |>
DELETE to |>
From the above observation,I think it is possible to copy the dbo.Table from the one Database to the Northwind Database that needs to be repaired. Please help and advise me how to do this task or tell me where I can find the Microsoft document that gives the details of this X-copy thing.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
P. S. I am using VB 2005 Express to create a project to learn "Calling Stored Procedures with ADO.NET" (see Paul Kimmel's article in http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3438221) that needs the dbo.Tables of Northwind Database and my Northwind Database has been screwed up for quite a while and needs a big repair.

This generates error that Table already exist.
If Wait 1 sec then execute statement then it works fine.

Hi thanks for looking at my question
Using sqlServer management studio 2005
My Tables are something like this:
--Table 1 "Employee"
CREATE TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee](
[EmployeeGID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BranchFID] [int] NOT NULL,
[FirstName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[MiddleName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[LastName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Employee] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EmployeeGID]
)
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee]
WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Employee_BranchFID]
FOREIGN KEY([BranchFID])
REFERENCES [myCompany].[Branch] ([BranchGID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee] CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Employee_BranchFID]
-- Table 2 "Branch"
CREATE TABLE [Mycompany].[Branch](
[BranchGID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BranchName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[City] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[ManagerFID] [int] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Branch] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[BranchGID]
)
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Branch]
WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Branch_ManagerFID]
FOREIGN KEY([ManagerFID])
REFERENCES [MyCompany].[Employee] ([EmployeeGID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Branch]
CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Branch_ManagerFID]
--Foreign IDs = FID
--generated IDs = GID
Then I try a simple single row DELETE
DELETE FROM MyCompany.Employee
WHERE EmployeeGID= 39
Well this might look like a very basic error:
I get this Error after trying to delete something from Table €œEmployee€?
The DELETE statement conflicted with the
REFERENCE constraint "FK_Branch_ManagerFID".
The conflict occurred in database "MyDatabase",
table "myCompany.Branch", column 'ManagerFID'.
Yes what I€™ve been doing is to deactivate the foreign key constraint, in both tables when performing these kinds of operations, same thing if I try to delete a €œBranch€? entry, basically each entry in €œbranch€? and €œEmployee€? is child of each other which makes things more complicated.
My question is, is there a simple way to overcome this obstacle without having to deactivate the foreign key constraints every time or a good way to prevent this from happening in the first place? Is this when I have to use €œON DELETE CASCADE€? or something?
Thanks
