Hi,
i wanted to read some datasets from a table with the ROWVERSION. Then i wanted to save these records with the ROWVERION- Column in a temp table. Now it seems i cant explicitely write data in a ROWVERSION Column. As i understand its only possible to write a default value in such columns. Only SQL Server itself can write into ROWVERSION columns.
Am i right with this meaning?
Thx in advance...

Hello, I'm attempting to use the Sql Timestamp (Rowversion in 2005) datatype for optimistic concurrency for my SqlDataSource because the table I'm updating has a few columns that can be null which breaks the optimistic concurrency code generated by visual studio. However, the Type's available for SqlDataSource parameters do not include "Timestamp" and everything else I've tried throws exceptions. SO, is there anyway to use the timestamp/rowversion datatype with a SqlDataSource? Many thanks for your help, I have been googling this for literally hours. Thanks again.Drew

I am reading information of timestamp type in sql server.
I have read something about timestamp is deprecated and new type is rowversion, but in my sql server 2005 there isnt any type rowversion.
is timestamp deprecated?
how can I cast timestampt to datetime?
Thanks
I have a RowVersion/Timestamp column in my table. I check against the RowVersion/Timestamp column when updating rows to check if a row has been updated by another user. I would like to call RAISERROR with a custom message which indicates the current RowVersion/Timestamp of the row in question.
What data type do I convert the RowVersion/Timestamp column into so I can make it part of the custom message which will be a string?
If I convert the RowVersion/Timestamp column into a bigint column, will the max value of RowVersion/Timestamp ever exceed the max value of a bigint? For example, convert(bigint, MyRowVersionColumn)
If the max value of the RowVersion/Timestamp column can exceed the max value for a bigint column, can I convert the RowVersion/Timestamp into a hex string?
Basically RowVersion/Timestamp columns are binary(8) or varbinary(8) so the question could also be answered if it is known if binary(8) can exceed the max value of bigint or if binary(8) can be converted into a hex string
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
Hello all,I am new at SQL Server 2005 and have been reading everything I canfindabout the new optimistic concurrency control mechanisms. As far as Ican tell, the Snapshot Isolation Level is based avoids the use ofshared locks using rowversioning instead.To control rowversions in SQL Server 2000 I was using an extra columnin each table containing a rowversion datatype. What i do with this isfind out if a row was modified. Is it possible in SQL Server 2005 toavoid the use of this extra column, using the new versioning features?What I mean is, if the Snapshot Isolation already manages rowversionsin TempDB, is it possible for me to query those versions using somestored procedures or functions given by SQL Server 2005 system? Whatfunctionalities does SQL Server 2005 gives me for that (anydocumentation pointer would help)?This would allow me to do the exact same processing that i was doingwith the rowversion column in SQL Server 2000 without the need forthat extra column.For all of you my thanks and best wishesSusana Guedes

I have moved a mysql table to SQL Server and the table had an int datatype storing the value of the Unix timestamp. I want to convert this datatype into a DATETIME type in SQL Server.
Any ideas how I could do it?

After several hours of trying, I trow the towel in the ring and come here to ask a question.
Source system uses a timestamp column in the transaction tables. which is equal to a non-nullable binary(8) datatype (sql 2000 bol).
What I want to do is get the timestamp at the start of the transfer and at the end of the transfer of data. and store these in a controltable
I try to do this in 2 sql execute tasks:
sqltask 1: "select @@DBTS AS SourceTimestamp" and map the resultset to a variable. Here come's the first problem what variable type to take ?
DBNULL works (meaning it doesn't give errors) (BTW: is there a way to put a variable as a watch when debugging sql tasks ?)
INT64 and UINT64 don't work error message that types for column and parameter are different
STRING works
Then I want to store this variable back in a table of a different data source
sqltask2: "insert into controltable values(getdate(), ?)" and make an input parameter that takes the previous timestamp ...
if I took DBNULL as a type for the variable there doesn't seem to be a single parameter type that works ???
if i take STRING as a type for the variable I have to modify the sql to do the explicit conversion from string to binary so I change CAST(? as binary). It doesn't return any error but the value stored in the table is 0x00000000000 and not the actual timestamp.
Any help on this one ? Why are the INT64/Bigint not working here, you can perfectly do a convert(bigint, timestampfield) in sql ?
How came the SQL datatypes, and the variable datatypes, parameter datatypes are so badly alligned to each other (and all seem to use different names) ?
tx for any help

I created a SSIS package and creating a derived column named: Date...set datatype as DT_DBDATE....I do not want the timestamp on date...then I want to load this Date into a SQL server database table, with datatype of datetime, but it will load here with the timestamp which I do not want. Any ideas? I did change datatype of the SQL Server Destination datatype to DT_DBDATE but it will change it back to DT_DBTimestamp. thx

HI ALL.
I created one table
USE [testdb]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[WORKDAYS](
[ID] [int] NULL,
[DDATE] [datetime] NULL,
[BEGTIME] [timestamp] NULL,
[ENDTime] [int] NULL,
[DAYTYPE] [int] NOT NULL,
[NOTE] [nchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
And I wand alter table ENDTime column type to TimeStamp and I get this error
'WORKDAYS1' table
- Unable to modify table.
A table can only have one timestamp column. Because table 'Tmp_WORKDAYS1' already has one, the column 'ENDTIME' cannot be added.
I using SQL SERVER Managment Studio 2005 Express.
What is this error?
Express Edition supporeted one timestamp column in a table???
Which way u are offer?
I want two column in a table do timestamp.
I am attempting to move a timestamp data column from DB2 to SQL Server 2005. Normally not a big deal but the column is part of unique index.
The DB2 timestamp has seconds of ss.ssssss but SQL Server only has ss.sss.
Most all the times entered into this column are a from an automated process so they are really close together timewise.
Here is what I have come up with so far:
1. Fast Load OLEDB with a batch of 10,000 records at a time
2. On the fail of the batch redirect rows to a regular table load OLEDB insert task
3. On the fail of the single insert redirect rows to script that ups the seconds one tick.
4. Attempt one last insert of the modified rows
5. If fail, then store the record off to a delimited text file
I am hoping to get the number of records that wind up in the delimited text file to be a very small number and not in the 1,000+.
Any help would be appreciated.
In SQL 2005 I use this 'min_active_rowversion()' to return the lowest active rowversion but this function is not available in SQL 2000. Is there any similar kind of thing in SQL 2000. We have 2 different application one on SQL 2005 and other on SQL 2000.
Thanks !
Is there an equalivent to scope_identity that supports getting the rowversion value last provided by the system?
The reason I'm asking: We're updating a table, and I want to send the rowversion value back to the client as an output paramter so they can update again without running into a false positive concurrency error.
Without something like scope_identity, I have to run a select statement after the update just to get the rowversion that was provided by the system, and that hardly seems efficient.
My goal is to avoid the extra code and the select statement.

I understand that SQL 2005 doesn´t support TIME ( which is, for me,
incredibly weird). Now, could anyone please help me solve my problem. I
want to make it possible to insert into database a start-time for the
first runner in a team. And when he finishes, a finish-time. This
finish-time I will also use as a start-time for the second
runner....a.s.o. Furthermore I want to be able to get the results from
the database to present them in several ways. This also means I can't
simply insert the time as a string since it won't change hour at every
60 minutes. I have read somewhere that it should be possible to create
own datatypes, but I have absolutely no knowledge to that. Could anyone
please help me?
For some reason, I recall having read that SQL Server 2005 would supporta datatype that represented date, but not time. (This would be usefulfor storing things like birthday, where you usually don't care about thetime of day). But I've got SQL Server 2005 installed, and there's nosuch datatype to be found.Is this something that might be released in a Service Pack, or is itjust not going to happen?

Good afternoon,
I have an issue with an ssis variable datatype.
The scenario is as follows:
I have a stored procedure:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_newTransaction]
@sourceSystem varchar(50),
@txOut NUMERIC(18,0) OUTPUT
AS
insert into scn_transaction (sourceSystemName) values(@sourceSystem);
SELECT @txOut = @@identity
Whose purpose is to perform an insert into a table and return me the identity value of the inserted record, which I'll then use throughout the rest of my package. The identity column in the inserted table is numeric(18,0).
I execute the stored proc with the following sql with an OLE DB connection manager:
exec sp_newTransaction ?, ?
The first parameter is a string variable from earlier in the package, and the second is the output parameter. I have the following parameter mappings to the execute sql task:
User:ystxId output numeric 1 -1
User:ourceSys input varchar 0 -1
The proc is correctly called, and the row insesrted, however I get a type conversion error when SSIS attempts to map the return parameter to my package variable... I've tried all sorts of combonations, and can't seem to get it to execute.
At one point I wasn't returning a numeric, but rather an int from the stored proc, and all was well until I went to use the variable in a derived column later in the package, and the type was converted quite incorrectly (a 1 was 77799789080 or some such), indicating a type conversion error likely related to the encoding of the number.
I'd like to keep the datatypes as numeric and make ssis use those - any pointers are greatly appreciated as to what type my package variable should be to allow proper assignment of a sql server numeric type to it.
Thanks much,
B
I have a database that I don't want to lock. I decided that before any updates can occur I would check a timestamp value and ensure that nobody else updated before I did (avoiding the 'last update wins' scenario).
I have a problem, I can read the Timestamp from the db when I read the record. I currently use the data to pre-fill a form (gee go figure ;) ) and the user changes some values and updates.
I don't know what to DO with the timestamp value while I am holding it. I have tried putting it into a hidden field on the form but the value does not seem to translate back and forth.
Do I have to store it as in memory as part of the session or can I somehow convert to and from text??
I have about 0 experience working with byte arrays so the best answer is one with an example.
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm knew to SQL Server so forgive the rookie. I have used MySQL for about two years now, and I've done something there that I'd like to duplicate in SQL Server.
First off, I'm using SQL Server 2005 Express (free) edition. I have a table, and within the fields I have one titled "Last_Updated".
Now, I know that the function (when I place it in the default value) "getDate()" will insert the current date and time, but it doesn't update the record if the record is modified. What I'm looking for is if the user updates a record that the date/time automatically updates. I experimented with the Timestamp, but all it gave me was "binary data" in the field. Ideally I'm looking for something like this:
...using the YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format...
Last_Updated = 20070321140001
Is there a syntax for a default value that I'm missing? I've looked at several discussion groups, all giving varying advice, and none of which seemed to work. I much appreciate any guidance anyone can give me. Thanks!
We used SSIS to move data from a table in SQL 2000 which had a column with the image datatype to a column in a table in SQL 2005 that has a datatype of varbinary(max). No errors were produced from the SSIS package.
There were a number of records where the DATALENGTH of the column with the image datatype was greater than 8000. Was the data truncated for these records?
This is probably a very elementary question, but I am not familiar with the application or the data.
Below is the source table in SQL 2000 and a select count(*) ...
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[LSCHANNELCUTDATA](
[UIDCHANNELCUT] [numeric](19, 0) NOT NULL,
[VALUECODES] [image] NULL,
...
selectcount(*)

whereDATALENGTH ( [VALUECODES] )> 8000
Hi,
As we know that the DB2 has timestamp column with microseconds and SQL server has datetime with timestamp milliseconds.
How I can accomplish the same Timestamp value for the following requirement?.
1. Uniqueness
2. Replication between DB2 and SQL server
3. And various other requriement like this.
I'm having trouble importing data with a binary timestamp.
I have a group of datafiles with various data types mixed in
and I seem to get a lot of errors during the import attemt using
BCP.. The timestamp data is represented in the text file to be
imported as 0x0000aedc (Hexidecimal representation of timestamp)
I'm using the tilde (~) as a delimiter. What can I do to get past this
rather annoying problem?
Datetime seems to be accepted fine if I use char as the import datatype
and 26 as the length. It seems to swallow that fine. It seems to be the
timestamp field I'm tripping on.
Timestamp comes up as [binary]
Prefix length = 2
Field terminator = ~
For starters, please feel free to move this if it is in the wrong forum.
The issue I have is this. I have been asked to delete all information from a table that was inserted before May 12 this year. The issue is that when the DB was created, whoever designedd it neglected to add a timestamp column for the user data table (the one I need to purge). Does SQL, by default, happen to store insert times? Would it be something that might hide ina log file somewhere?
Can anyone give me a brief summary of this datatype? Anything that I would need to know to use this in tables that are populated via an asp web service.
Thanks!
can someone please supply some information to help with this??
I am moving data from db2 8.1 for windows. the dates in db2 are defined as timestamp. i want to convert these to sql server datetime format in sql server 2000 using dts and sql.

I've got a question about the UNIX timestamp solutions, I am using this one:

This works great for today (wintertime), but when I query the past, say last week, it will still hold the current offset of my server GMT+1, where it was GMT+2.

I need to sync several tables from a purchaes software to our own tables.
Not the complete tables, only selected fields.
Each source table has a timestamp, so I could use this to track what has changed.
But, how do I store locally the last timestamp from the source database.
A local timestamp field would register my localtimestamp instead of the one I would like to remind.
