I The requirement is to unload all columns data into csv file using bcp with pipe delimiter, but the condition is to remove milliseconds part of a datetime column.
Ex:
2014-02-19 17:12:14.967 remove .967 from data while unloading into csv.
I have an Address column that I need to Substring. I want to remove part of the string after either, or both of the following characters i.e ',' OR '*'
Example Record 1. Elland **REQUIRES BOOKING IN***
Example Record 2. Theale, Nr Reading, Berkshire
Example Record 3. Stockport
How do I achieve this in a CASE Statement?
The following two case statements return the correct results, but I some how need to combine them into a single Statement?
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(',',Address) =0
THEN LEN(Address )
ELSE CHARINDEX(',' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test'
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('*',Address ) =0
THEN LEN(Address)
ELSE CHARINDEX('*' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test2'
I have made the following Scalar-valued function:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[TimeCalc]
(
@OriginalTime AS INTEGER
, @TenthsOrHundredths AS INTEGER -- code 2: 1/10, code 4: 1/100
)
RETURNS NVARCHAR(8)
[Code] ....
What it does is convert numbers to times
E.g.: 81230 gets divided by 10 (times in seconds: 8123). This 1 1 full minute, and the remainder = 2123 making it 1.21.23 mins)
So far so good (function works perfectly)
My question: sometimes times are in 1/100 (like above sample), sometimes in 1/10.
This means that, e.g. with a time like 3.23.40 the last zero must be deleted.
My thoughts are to use the results from the Return Case part, and as the code = 4: leave it as it is,
is the code 2 the use LEFT(... result Return Case ..., Len(..result Return Case.. - 1))
There are 5 codes: 0 1 2 3 and 4
When you view the Extended Events "Watch Live Data" is the duration in milliseconds or microseconds? I'm assuming it's milliseconds, but if you look at the timestamp difference from start to complete it doesn't add up to the duration amount? It looks like it's just the difference between the timestamps?

some tables in my database's using datetime format, and the time's not default (12:00:00 AM) but it save the exact time.
Example : 7/17/2007 11:02:06 AM
when i use datetime for parameters, there's no value returned. While it's impossible for users to entered the exact time when they want to preview reports.
So, how to remove the time part in datetime format?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using a script component to create the output buffer dynamically. I use the Outputbuffer.AddRow() call. I then set all the fields I want, and its added to the output and later inserted into the database. If a field value fails it causes an error, but the record is partially inserted upto the point where the set field command caused the error. So if I set 10 fields, and it fails on field 5 it inserts data for the 5 fields that worked and nulls into the others.
As a result I have a try catch clause, and if it fails I want to cancell the addition of the new row. Is there a command like RemoveRow(), rollback, etc that can be used to not insert the record in error?
Sample code..
Try
PaymentOutputBuffer.AddRow()
PaymentOutputBuffer.Sequence = pi + 1
PaymentOutputBuffer.RecordID = Row.RecordID
PaymentOutputBuffer.PaymentMethod = PaymentArray(pi)
Catch e As Exception
PaymentErrorOutputBuffer.removecurrentrow(??)
End Try
I was trying to copy child records of one parent record into another, and wanted to report back new child record id and corresponding child record id that was used to create it. I ran into run-time error with OUTPUT clause. Following is a script that will duplicate the situation I ran into:
CREATE TABLE Parent(
ParentID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
ParentName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL)
GO
CREATE TABLE Child(
ChildID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
ParentID INT NOT NULL REFERENCES Parent(ParentID),
ChildName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL)
GO
INSERT INTO Parent(ParentName) VALUES('Parent 1')
INSERT INTO Parent(ParentName) VALUES('Parent 2')
GO
INSERT INTO Child(ParentID, ChildName) VALUES(1, 'Child 1')
INSERT INTO Child(ParentID, ChildName) VALUES(1, 'Child 2')
GO
At this stage, there Child table looks like:
ChildID
ParentID
ChildName
1
1
Child 1
2
1
Child 2
What I want to do is copy Parent 1€™s children to Parent 2, and report back which source ChildID that was used to create the new child records. So I wrote the query:
DECLARE @LinkTable TABLE (FromChildID INT, ToChildID INT)
INSERT INTO Child(ParentID, ChildName)
OUTPUT c.ChildID, inserted.ChildID INTO @LinkTable
SELECT 2, c.ChildName
FROM Child c
WHERE c.ParentID = 1
SELECT * FROM @LinkTable
In the end I was expecting Child table to look like:
ChildID
ParentID
ChildName
1
1
Child 1
2
1
Child 2
3
2
Child 1
4
2
Child 2
and OUTPUT clause to return me:
FromChildID
ToChildID
1
3
Child record with ID 3 was created using ID of 1.
2
4
Child record with ID 4 was created using ID of 2.
But infact I€™m getting following error:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 9
The multi-part identifier "c.ChildID" could not be bound.
Any ideas on how to fix the OUTPUT clause in the query to return me the expected output?
Thanks

What is the best way to change an output of P0123 to 123? i.e. drop the letter 'P' and also any leading zeros. We have a report that outputs terminal ID's which range from P0001 through to P0536.
I can drop the 'P' easily enough, but how I can drop the P000 from terminal ID P0001 for example.
I'm using the following command:
osql -E -n -d testdb -i testquery.qry -o "c:Scriptsoutput.txt" -h-1 -w 500 -s ","
With the following query (testquery.qry):
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT table1.column5, table2.column9
FROM table1, table2
WHERE table1.column4 = table2.column4
AND table1.column1 != "NULL"
ORDER BY table1.column5
All of the columns are cast as char up to 50 characters.
Even if only a field has a few characters, I get a lot of extra white space in my output. I want to get rid of those trailing spaces. I've tried SET ANSI_PADDING OFF, RTRIM(), and CAST(x AS VARCHAR(y)). I still get the same output. What am I doing wrong, what am I missing?
When I save my output (from a query I ran) to a text file, there seems to be rows of spaces. Is there a way i can just kill off any spaces at the end of my query? Like rtrim or something?

Database is in simple recovery mode, and published with transaction replication push subscription, just one subscriber but the database is huge. I don't want to overwrite the schema at the subscriber either.
I had to run an alter database command on a published database, it created so many logs that an extra drive had to be added along with an extra log file to accommodate all the logs.
The problem I have is I'd like to know clear the file of logs so I can drop the temporary log file, and give the drive back, but I cannot.
I have tried dbcc shrinkfile with the emptyfile option but it never clears, I have also tried it with notruncate and truncateonly options (mainly out of desperation).
I do not need to worry about point in time restore as a full backup is taken before and after the operation. After which the database will be put back into Full recovery mode.
I have looked at log_reuse_wait_desc and the file says 'Replication', so I am now thinking the file cannot empty because replication is keeping one of the VLFs active. I tried dropping and recreating the subscription hoping it might free something up and I could get somewhere, but it made no difference.
Do I have to remove replication completely to get round this? Surely not.
I have also tried putting the database back into full recovery mode, doing a full DB backup, and a transaction log backup, but its made no difference, which is also what makes me think a portion of the log is still active because of replication, and perhaps the transactions have not gone through to the subscriber, which raises another question, why not?
I have not tried restarting SQL server, as I'd like to know a way out of this without having to do that, plus I do not think it would make any difference anyway.
I'm trying to replace a particular part of a row in a table with a new value.
The row is called "DataPath" and it has a lot of values like so:
mashOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
I want to run a query to replace the mash with our DFS namespace share name companysharesDepartments but keep everything else past the mash part of the original row.
I'm currently running this query, it says it is altering 30,000 rows, but it doesn't look like it's doing anything at all..
UPDATE dbo.Part
SET DataPath = REPLACE(DataPath,'company.localsharesDepartments','mash')
WHERE DataPath like 'mash\%'
So for example, it would change the mash above to
company.localsharesDepartmentsOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
I created a mirrored DB, added a new datafile to the principal using a path the mirror can't access. As a result the mirroring session was suspended because the mirror stated: "CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.) while attempting to open or create the physical file".
Fine, so I disabled mirroring on the principal (SET PARTNER OFF) which worked just fine, but the mirror stayed in a mirrored state, Object Explorer saying:"(Mirror, Disconnected / In Recovery). Sooo, I tried to disable db mirroring on the mirror using ALTER DATABASE db SET PARTNER OFF;, which completed successfully, but the DB STILL remained in a mirrored-configuration.
I tried ALTER DATABASE db SET PARTNER FORCE_SERVICE_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS which resulted in
"Msg 1404, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
The command failed because the database mirror is busy. Reissue the command later."
I tried taking the DB offline or restoring it from a backup, but all these operations resulted in "The operation cannot be performed on database "db" because it is involved in a database mirroring session or an availability group."
The only solution I can think of at the moment is shutting down the instance and deleting the data and log-files of the mirrored db, which would be just fine because this is just a test installation, but it would be not quite as easy in a productive environment.
Is there any other way to remove the mirrored state from a disconnected mirror or to simply get rid of the db entirely to perform a recovery?
As part of patching i need to remove the database from availability group and add the database after patching is done , how can i achieve this ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedApp developers are complaining that a blocking report I sent them today does not have enough info to troubleshoot and fix the root cause of the blocking.(I used SQL Sentry to get the report and send to the users, but I think my question is more fundamental than just using one 3rd-party tool.)The reason for the complaints is that the top blocker is a SELECT stmt on TableA that is not the Wait Resource of the blocking (TableB).
I explained that this is likely because the "blocking" SELECT stmt on TableA is part of a larger explicit tran that includes TableB, and that they need to look through their code to identify the SQL stmt that is the root cause of the blocking.They would like that root statement identified in the blocking report, but I don't think it is possible to get to that through DMVs.
There are 3 columns in the result set - part num, Qty and MO num. Each MO num has part numbers.So there might be same part numbers in MO's. Each part num has qty. So, if I group by part num, I get Qty.
1.There are duplicates of part.num and I want to remove duplicates and add quantities of those duplicates into one single quantity. For example, xxxx is a part num, then xxxx=1,xxxx=3,xxxx=5. I want xxxx=9. I want to sum those. Another question is, each MO has a user. I want to join user and MO num in MO.
