I am trying to retrieve the user names of all users within a database. The problem is, that I have only created a login within SQL 7.0 for the NT group that the users belong to.
As such, when I try to query the syslogins table I only get the NT group.
Is there any way of retrieving the users that belong to this NT group.
Any help or suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
How canI get all field names in a table using sql query? Now I am not interested in the data in this table, what I am interested in is just the schema, i.e. all field names. Thanks.
Hello All,
I have been trying to get this code work, but I could not. Every thing seems going well. However, The result of running the sql query is strange. It shows the field names twice.
Eg:) if you have a table called "newtable" that has two fields[Custnumber, Custname], you will get somthing like this [Custnumber, Custname Custnumber, Custname]. I have tried many times, but I couldn't fix it.
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) handles Mybase.Load
if not page.Ispostback then
try
Sqlconnection = New Sqlconnection (connectionString)
querystring = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNs
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Newtable'"
SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(queryString, Sqlconnection)
SqlConnection.Open
dataReader = SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
while dataReader.Read()
Tablefields_txt.text += dataReader.Getstring(0) & ", "
End while
catch ex as Exception
msgbox("An error has occured: " + ex.Message,0, "Error Message")
finally
SqlConnection.Close()
End try
End if
Any help , please
I have two different tables... one for all Staff, and another for all Temp Staff. I need both to output to a datagrid, and so I need to grab both tables from a SQL query to output to my datagrid, but I can't seem to get the logic right for it to work. Can someone give me some suggestions on why my results are blank when I'm running this query? I thought a simple join would allow both sets of identical column names to coexist in peace...SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT dbo.StaffDirectory.UserName, dbo.StaffDirectory.LastName, dbo.StaffDirectory.FirstName, dbo.StaffDirectory.Dept, dbo.StaffDirectory.Title, dbo.StaffDirectory.EMail, dbo.StaffDirectory.LocationFROM dbo.StaffDirectory INNER JOIN dbo.TempStaff ON dbo.StaffDirectory.Location = dbo.TempStaff.Location AND dbo.StaffDirectory.EMail = dbo.TempStaff.Email AND dbo.StaffDirectory.Title = dbo.TempStaff.Title AND dbo.StaffDirectory.Dept = dbo.TempStaff.Dept AND dbo.StaffDirectory.FirstName = dbo.TempStaff.FName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.LastName = dbo.TempStaff.LName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.UserName = dbo.TempStaff.UName AND dbo.StaffDirectory.MDNo = dbo.TempStaff.MDNoIs something wrong here? It just doesn't work =(Any suggestions would be really appreciated.Thank you

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am designing a package to export staging tables into a flat file.The names of the tables will be: TableAStaging_YYYYMM and TableBStaging_YYYYMM. As you can see the names of the tables will be changing each month.

Hi,
I need a query to get the index names of particular tables. for eg.. i have some tables like emp_data,emp_job....etc..Now i want to find all indexe names for those tablenames that starts with emp........ Plz help me...
I am imagining something you might pass the names of 2 stored procs (an old version and new one), and a query to produce valid parameters. It would then fire off each proc for a set number of executions, while storing off the results in temp tables, and at the end it would do a data compare, and store off performance data from dynamic management views.
Now I know how to get the parameters for a stored procedure out of the catalogue views, but is SQL Server aware at all of the schema of the results of stored procedures that return result sets, becuase I was thinking of doing something like...
INSERT INTO #datacompare(col1,col2)
EXEC mystoredprocedure
... but I can not seem to figure out how to dynamically gather the schema of the result set.
I have query which is used to dynamically insert value but not working. We are trying to get all table names and insert dynamically to all tables by looping through table names.
declare @a varchar(max),@i int;
declare @table table(rno int, name varchar(max))
declare @b varchar(max)
insert into @table
select row_number() over( order by table_name) rno, table_name from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.tables
declare @tblname varchar(max)
[Code] .....
I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
- SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.
- SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will
1. take a parameter
2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string
3. Execute that string as SQL
4. Get a return value from that SQL statement
5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.

Here with the below query iam binding my gridview with industry name,company name,Plant Name,Group Name related to the IDs in Audit table.Select Aud.Ad_ID_PK,Aud.Audit_Name,Ind.Industry_Name,Cmp.Company_Name,Pla.Plant_Name,Gr.Groups_Name,Aud.Audit_Started_On,Aud.Audit_Scheduledto,Aud.Audit_Created_On from
Industry Ind,
Company Cmp,
Plant Pla,
Groups Gr,
Audits Audwhere Ind.Ind_Id_PK =Aud.Audit_Industry and
Cmp.Cmp_ID_PK =Aud.Audit_Company and
Pla.Pl_ID_PK =Aud.Audit_Plant and
Gr.G_ID_PK =Aud.Audit_Group and
Ad_ID_PK in (select Ad_ID_PK from Audits)
Now i want to edit these names.
when i click on edit in gridview these names will be filled into textboxes and when i change the names it should compare the name with particular tables and should get the Id of that and store in Audits table.
For example:
i have this data in my audits table:
Commercial83312
2
2
2
1
Here Commercial83312 is ID of that Audit and 2,2,2,1 are the Industry,Company,Plant and group Ids for that particular audit.In the front end i can see the names of this particular IDs.
when i edit the industry name in the UI it must check the name with industry table and get the ID of the changed name and store it in audit table.
so the data may be changed in audits table as :
Commercial83312
4
2
2
1
so here the industry ID is changed
I need the stored procedure for this.
please help me,its very urgent...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm going to be setting up DB mirroring between two SQL Server 2005 boxes. Since these are on two different servers, can the instance names be the same? Is there any reason NOT to do so if the mirror server is going to be used exclusively for DB mirroring?
For example: if the my primary DB is located on SERVER1INSTANCE1, can the mirror be SERVER2INSTANCE1 or do the instance names have to be different even though they're on different boxes.
Thanks!
