Is there a way that I can reset the key field to 1 when using DELETE to clear a table?
(Note: if there is a separate command that I could use after the DELETE, that is fine too.)
Thank you for your help with this,

Can anyone tell me of a way to reset the value of an Identity field back to its seed value after all the rows in a given table have been deleted and I try to re-populate it? There are foreign key relationships so I cannot just drop and recreate the table, and I really need to address this issue from within sql, rather than from the application.
Thanks, any and all guidance would be great :)
Hi,
All records of a table must be deleted if a field (field1) contains NULL or is made empty by a previous update command.
I did this but it only works when the field is made empty, not when it contains NULL:
dim field1 as string = ""...sql = "delete from mytable WHERE (field1=@field1)" comd = New SqlCommand(sql, oConnection) comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@field1", field1) comd.ExecuteNonQuery()
How can i do that?
Thanks

I need to delete records from a table (Table1) which has a foreign key column in a related table (Table2).
Table1 columns are: table1Id; Name. Table2 columns include Table2.table1Id which is the foreign key to Table1.
What is the syntax to delete records from Table1 using Table1.Name='some name' and remove any records in Table2 that have Table2.table1Id equal to Table1.table1Id?
I need to delete all records in the TBL_PCL_LENS_DATA table that do not have a corresponding record in the TBL_VERIFICATION table.
Primary Table: TBL_PCL_LENS_DATA
PK: Serial Number

Child Table: TBL_VERIFICATION
PK: Serial Number

:confused: Urgent!!
Hi there. I use MS SQL server. I would like to separate the data from one table to two tables refer to two reference tables and the following conditions:
Let say these two reference tables are called:
Table A & Table B
Group A:
1. Same date in Table A & Table B
2. Same ID in Table A & Table B (ID is not unique)
3. Same name in Table A & Table B (Name is not unique)
Combine all of these three conditions for unique identifier.
I used the following SQL code to separate the required data that match the above conditions to the new table.
(Code)
select a.Project, a.Site, a.S_number, a.Field_ID, a.Method, a.Analyte, a.Result, a.Units,
a.Qualifier, a.Dilution_Factor, a.Reporting_limit, a.Recovery_, a.Matrix, a.CAS_Number, a.Sample_Date,
a.Received_Date, a.Prep_Date, a.Analysis_Date, a.Batch_ID, a.Data_Package_num_SDG, a.Lab_Sample_ID,
a.Lab into APPL_union_exist from APPL_union_update a, Before_01012004_report b
where a.Field_ID = b.[Field Sample] and a.Sample_Date = b.Collected and a.Analyte = b.Analyte
However, I don't know how to delete the data that copied to the new table in original table, or separate that to the new table. Wish someone can help me. Thanks a lot
I have a table called PJLabDet.Total_Hrs which is the sum of hours of 7 days.

Hello, I'm developing application which monitors network packets. The monitoring data are saved into table. Monitoring table maintains the data for fixed quantum time,for example during one 1 hour. So, every minute before or after insert new data, I delete the time-expired data. I doubt that the endless delete operation would results in some problems(increasing index,etc..).
Is this mechanism safe to the dbms?

Short Question: How do I delete all records from a destination table prior to appending new data to that table?
I am working with a SQL database that was migrated from MS Access. All relationships, primary keys, and identity columns have been set identically to the MS Access database values. The MS Access database is still being used as the database of record until the SQL database is fully functional with front-end, etc.
I want to delete the information stored in all the SQL tables, and then append the MS Access values to the SQL tables. I was able to write delete and append queries in MS Access to correctly transfer data to the SQL tables. However, I would prefer doing this through SSIS because I have several other sources of data to move to a SQL Server database and most of those other sources are not a MS Access database.
Due to relational entegrity settings, I need to delete the records from 8 tables in a specific order. I have tried independent control objects for each of the 8 tables with data flow objects of either "OLE DB Command" or "OLE DB Source" with the SQL command as "Delete From TableName". Results of the debug indicate everything is "green" but no records were deleted fromt the tables.
Hello,
I have been serching for weeks to resolve this problem. I am new to ASP.NET and trying to make the migration from ASP which I have programmed in for years. I am using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and SQL Express Edtion. I have been working through the Microsoft Video Training at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/beginner/learningpath/ and created a web site using Tier 3 Lesson 8 as the model. My new web site which is a simple phone book applicaiton lets me read the table and select the record without any problem. But the update form lets me edit but when I attempt to Apply the update I get the following error.
Server Error in '/Phonebook' Application.
ObjectDataSource 'ObjectDataSource1' could not find a non-generic method 'Update' that has parameters: FirstName, LastName, PhoneNumber, BossGroup, Department, BossPickup, ShowInPhonebook, Type, Original_FirstName, Original_LastName, Original_PhoneNumber, Original_BossGroup, Original_Department, Original_BossPickup, Original_ShowInPhoneBook, Original_Type, Original_ItemID.
Description: An unhundled expception occured during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originiated in the code.
The Stack Trace basiclly showes the same error as above.
Also, when I attempt to delete the record I do not get an error but the record does not delete.
What is interesting is that I can add a record so I do not believe that it is a security permissions issue. I have the ISS Authinication Method Enable Anonymous Access set on with full control.
If anyone has any insight as to why this is occuring please let me know.
Hi ,
I have a scheduled job which does an text file import in my database . The data gets appended in my table every day from this import job .
Since my table is growing every day , i want to truncate the table after the data has been collected for three months i.e 90 days . The table will be empty and the new data will flow in through the import .
Any thoughts how to do it through query and schedule it ???

Hi everyone,
I have a task to create a dts package, which will delete records in a SQL table, which are present on a sheet tab in Excel. I know how to transfer records from Excel to SQL table and vice versa, but not sure how I can delete the records in SQL table, which are present in Excel. Note that there are just 2 columns - one is a key and the other name.
Thank you all in advance,

So I've stumbled across an audit table on one of our systems that has reached a hearty 180M rows in size.
The table is a heap (no indexes whatsoever).
Each record has a datetime value indicating when it was created.
I need to delete everything that was created prior to the last 6 months; what is my best plan of attack?
using below query
DELETE FROM Table_name
WHERE Date_column < GETDATE() - 30
am able to delete old records morethan 30 days, but i want to results to be saved in file.
before deleting i want to a craete a file and save the to be deleted records.
DELETE FROM [SCS_NAV2009R2_PROD].[dbo].[Payroll Ledger Entry]
gives this error
Msg 9002, Level 17, State 4, Line 1
The transaction log for database 'SCS_NAV2009R2_PROD' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
~ 7,000,000 records
now i have set the log to autogrow and set the max size to 2tb
what else can i do to get this going?

Hi Everyone,
We have a large test database with million of records for more than company site Code. Sometime we want to refresh the data of that database for one or more site Codes.
In order to do that I have to delete all records of the site code we want to refresh on the test database first then copy a new set of data from production database over. Since we refresh data based on the site code therefore I have to use the Delete command instead of Truncate.
Since this is a huge database with thousand of tables and million of records per table I have a performance issues with delete command. So what would be the best to delete a large number of records without writing any information to database log file?
FYI: The Recovery model of this database is Simple

How do i use delete to perform a delete action of a value from a table using an interval of values?
--
delete [table] from [field]='[value]' to '[value]'
-- or
delete [table] where [field]='[value]' to '[value]'
--
i can't delete an interval of values (from...to) from a field of a certain table...
What is the right expression to do this?
I am using a SQL Server Agent jobs that run each morning to update the records in a table to match what they should be for that day. I built them and tested it using a test table called "testtable1". It worked fine. But when I switched over to our production table, it fails saying the table has to be decaled. What would be the difference. The production table has a "@" in front of the name, is that causing issues?

I'm looking at SSIS and SqlBulkCopy as a possible method to quickly insert and process large amounts of data, my current method uses the sp_xml_preparedocument and OPENXML to parse an xml document of the data I want to process and insert into the database, however I'm noticing the performance of SqlServer parsing the xml document isn't that good.
I found the C# SqlBulkCopy method (new in .NET 2.0) and I was thinking it would be faster to use that to load my data into a staging table and then use SSIS to extract the data from the staging table, process and transform it as necessary and finally load it into the final destination tables. I was able to create an Integration Services Project that selects the data from the staging table, does a bit of processing on one of the fields (by calling a stored procedure), and finally loads the processed data into the final table.
The problem with this is I need to clean out the rows that were extracted from the staging table and I'm not sure how I can accomplish this (and I can't just issue a "delete from staging_table" because there maybe new records in the staging table that were not processed), perhaps I can either delete each record as it is proccessed or somehow get the last proccessed identity id from the staging table and delete all records less than or equal to that id.
thanks in advance for any help you can provide, maybe there is an easy way to accomplish what I'm trying to do.

How to archive the data and then delete the archive data from both tables.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have around 3 tables having around 20 to 30gb of data. My table A related to table B by a FK and same way table B related to table C by FK. I would like to delete all rows satisfying certain condition from table A and all corresponding related records from table B and C. I have created a query to delete the grandchild first, followed by child table and finally parent. I have used inner join in my delete query. As you all know, inner join delete operations, are going to be extremely resource Intensive especially on bigger tables.
What is the best approach to delete all these rows? There are many constraints, triggers on these tables. Also, there might be some FK relations to other tables as well.

I really need creating a query that will retreive all records from a table where the dbo.CorpAdv.AcctNum field equals a specific value (for this example "0023"), the TranCode = "R" and the sum of the records, starting with the latest, equals the value of a field in another table (dbo.Master.TotalAdv)
dbo.Master.TotalAdv is numeric (dollar amount) and in this example the value is $1,850.00
dbo.CorpAdv.pID is an integer and unique ID for each record, later records have higher numbers
dbo.CorpAdv.AcctNum is text field

I'm new to MS SQL and VB. I have a table with one field JOB_NAME containing 20 records. Out of that field I want to retrieve 6 of the 20 records into a pulldown menu. They are all unique text names like so:
Anna Smith
John Doe
etc. I did not see IDs listed for any of the names in the table when I looked.
There is no common denominator to the names that can be filtered in the SELECT statement, and the 6 that I want will need to be pulled out individually.
Is there a way to do this with a SELECT statement? I have not found much information about how to extract unique records out of a single field. Here's the statement I'm using which pulls all of them:
strSQL = "SELECT DISTINCT JOB_NAME AS Names FROM [WORKER_NAMES] WHERE JOB_NAME<>' ' ORDER BY JOB_NAME ASC"
This gives me the total list but I only want to bring back 6 of the 20 for the pulldown.
Is there a way to modify this statement to pull only the records that I want?
Thanks for any help you can give.

I am using Master Data Service for couple of months now. I can load, update, merge and soft delete data in MDS. Occasionally we even have to hard delete data from MDS. If we keep on soft deleting records in a MDS table eventually there will be huge number of soft deleted records. Is there an easy way to hard delete all the soft deleted records from all MDS tables in a specific Model.
