Tracking Table Changes On SQL Server Ce Without Using RDA?
Feb 24, 2007Hi,
Can anybody let me know if there are ways to programatically track changes made to a SQL SERVER CE table? I am writing a db monitoring tool on SQL server CE which should track any changes made to the table.(Insert update and delete)
We could have done this using triggers on Sql Server 2005. Since triggers are not supported on SQL Server CE, are there any alternate ways to achieve this functionality?

RDA - Multi Table Error For Tracking
Apr 18, 2007
Hello,
I receive an error message when I try to Push data that the table is not tracked. However, when I try to turn on the tracking option it gives me an error that the table is a multi query table and therefore cannot be tracked. Here is my code to Pull the table.
string TPDAPull = string.Format("SELECT Table1.Field1,Table1.Field2, Table1.Field3, Table1.Field4, from Table1 Left Join Table2 on Table1.Field1 =Table2.Field1 WHERE Table2.Field12='{0}'", this.FindWorker(var));
rda.Pull("Table1", TPDAPull, rdaOleDbConnectString, RdaTrackOption.TrackingOn);
This table does not have a primary key. I was wondering what can I do in this situation? I do not want to Pull the whole table. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am working in VS 2005, NCF2.0, C#, WM5.0.
Thanks in advance!
SQL Server 2008 :: Change Tracking On Table?
Jun 8, 2015best way to track changes for a very pesky table.We pull down a table from an Oracle database (via linked server) into our SQL Server on a daily basis. The data in this table is just truncated and reloaded daily. There is no "history" kept in the oracle database and values are not being "updated" its just dropped and repopulated.
So, I have toyed around with CDC and even creating my own custom auditing method but I can't come up with a reasonable solution that doesn't involve a massive audit table that doesn't provide much useful info.
For example, there are two date fields in the table that my customer wishes to have history tracked for. Every day, this table is truncated and reloaded - however those dates may stay the same for many many many months. If I turn on CDC, I will get tons of audit records for a delete and an insert every day but the values for the two date fields may not have even changed.
The table has tons of fields in it but I only care about the 2 date fields for history purposes.Here is a snippet of the table (I took out all the additional fields in the table and just left the two date fields that need to be tracked):
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Fake_Name](
[lin] [char](6) NOT NULL,
[boip_no] [char](6) NOT NULL,
[dt_tc] [varchar](25) NULL,
[Code] .....
method to track changes to this table with it being truncated every day?
Tracking Member Views Of Clan Pages (was Table Design Help Needed)
Feb 28, 2005I am helping a friend with a gamming website. There are pages which displays data from other clans.
Members need to register and login to view full clan details. User who have not logged in can only view partial data about a clan.
I need to keep track of the kind of hits each page received. That is I want to tell say "Clan X" that these particular members viewed your page these many times and on these dates and these members who have not registered have viewed your page these many times and on these dates.
I am using ASP with MS SQL.
I would like some help on designing the table layout that is efficient for keeping track of the visitors for each page.
Any help will be appreciated.

Query Based Off Primary Key Of Parent Table - Adding Child Table
Jan 28, 2012I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code:
SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName,
People_tbl.LastName, People_tbl.[Parent ID]
FROM People_tbl RIGHT OUTER JOIN
Student_ind ON People_tbl.[Family ID] = Student_ind.[Family ID]

How Do I Copy / Insert A Primary Key Value Of One Table Into Another Table?
Dec 10, 2007
Hi i have set up two very simple tables, I want a user to be able to create a basic account ( data stored in User_Profile table with Id set as the Primery Key as Identity) I
want the user to be able to be able to return to their account at a later date
and then post multiple reviews of different bands they have seen at a later date.
I kept the tables in my example very simple so I could get my head
around the concept, but generally, I want to connect the Id (PK) value in
User_Profile table to the User_Id filed in the User_Review table,
so every review that user writes, will be connected directly to their Id.
Any help you could give would be fantastic a i have no idea where to start!!!
User_Profile
Id int, ( as primary Identity Key)
Name
City
Country
I have a second table called User Reviews
User_Revews
Revew_Id int , ( as primary Identity Key)
User_Id int, ( I want this to contain the Id value in
the User profile Table)
Review_Details
Thanks

Table Primary Key(Varchar) Table Question
Jan 17, 2008Hi,
I have a Users table that I use for membership. I am using username varchar(30) as the primary key for this table since username will always be unique.
The question I have is regarding how SQL Server actually stores data:
I see that when I add users, they are always stored alphabetically sorted on username.
I was expecting that all users will appear on the users table in the order they were added.
Example: I have 3 users (john, jonah, wilson). Now I added 4 user with username='bob'
If I execute select * from users, it returns me (bob, john, jonah, wilson). Look bob has become the first row of the table.
My question: Is Sql server moving 3 older rows to make room for 'bob' and it is also rebuilding part of the index due this new username 'bob'?
If this is the case, then it will have big impact if I have 100K users and I add one user that becomes firstrow. In that case 99,999 rows will have to move.
Bottom line, insert, delete will be very expensive.
I know sql server keeps data physically sorted on PK. But I am concerned here since rows are losing the order in which they were inserted.
Thanks
Primary Key Per Table
Dec 2, 2013There is a restriction that we must have only one primary key per table. We can have composite primary key by defining primary key over 2 or more columns. Actually,, a primary key uniquely defines the table and if we have two or more columns which follow unique and not null features why can't we have two primary keys?? I want to know what is the main reason behind having only one primary key in a table??
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat Happens If A Table Has No Primary Key?
Jul 23, 2005I ran into a table that is used a lot. Well less than100,000 records. Maybe not a lot of records but i believethis table is used often. The table has 26 fields, 9 indexesbut no Primary Key at all!There are no table relationships defined in this database, noNatural keys, only Surrogate keys in the database.1- Maybe an odd question but is it normal to have 1/3 of thetable's fields as indexes? Is this a valid question or it reallydoesn't matter if you have 9 indexes if they are appropriate to beindexes?2- Below is the DDL of the indexes (Is DDL the appropriate termto describe the indexes?) Without going into too technical aboutwhat the table is, what relationships it has with other tables,would you be able to tell if the indexes are good, bad, too many,etc?3- If i open the table in DESIGN view in SQL EM, i don't seethe Primary key icon. Yet here i see the words "PRIMARY KEYNONCLUSTERED". Does this mean UNIQUENO is actually some typeof primary key? If it was CLUSTERED then SQL EM would showUNIQUEID with a key to the left it identifying it as a PK?If that is the case, then what is the difference betweenPRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTEREDandPRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED?CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX [TBLTEST_PK] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST]([UNIQUENO]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCONSTRAINT [PK_TBLTEST] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED([UNIQUENO]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE UNIQUE INDEX [ASSIGNUNIQUENAME] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST]([USERNO], [STARTDATE], [NAME]) WITHFILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE INDEX [ENDDATE] ON [dbo].[TBLTEST]([ENDDATE]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE UNIQUE INDEX [IUSERASSIGNACT] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST]([USERNO], [TASKNO], [PROCESSENTRYNO])WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE INDEX [STARTDATE] ON [dbo].[TBLTEST]([STARTDATE]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE INDEX [PROCESSENTRYNOTBLTEST] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST]([PROCESSENTRYNO]) WITHFILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GO/****** The index created by the following statementis for internal use only. ******//****** It is not a real index but exists asstatistics only. ******/if (@@microsoftversion > 0x07000000 )EXEC ('CREATE STATISTICS [Statistic_NAME] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST] ([NAME]) ')GOCREATE INDEX [TASKNO_IDX] ON [dbo].[TBLTEST]([TASKNO]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE INDEX [TBLTEST_ORGANIZATIONNO_IDX] ON[dbo].[TBLTEST]([ORGANIZATIONNO]) WITHFILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE INDEX [TASKNOUSERNO] ON [dbo].[TBLTEST]([USERNO], [TASKNO]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 80 ON [PRIMARY]GOThank you
