SQL Server 2008 :: Add A Trigger That Inserts Original Data From 1 Table To Another

Apr 10, 2015

I am trying to create a trigger on a table. Let's call it table ABC. Table looks like this:

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ABC](
[id] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,

[Code] ....

When someone updates a row on table ABC, I want to insert the original values along with the current date and time getdate() into table ABCD with the current date and time into the updateDate field as defined below:

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ABCD](
[id] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,

[Code] .....

The trigger I've currently written looks like this:

/****** Object: Trigger [dbo].[ABC_trigger] Script Date: 4/10/2015 1:32:33 PM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[ABC_trigger] ON [dbo].[ABC]

[Code] ...

This trigger works, but it inserts all of the rows every time. My question is how can I get the trigger to just insert the last row updated?

I can't sort by uniqueidentifier in descending as those can be random.

Is Having A Trigger That Inserts A Row In Table 'A', When A Row In Same Table Is Inserted By ADo.Net Code?

Oct 13, 2006

I want to insert a row for a Global user  in Table 'A' whenever ADO.Net code inserts a Local user row into same table. I recommended using a trigger to implement this functionality, but the DBA was against it, saying that stored proecedures should be used, since triggers are unreliable and slow down the system by placing unecessary locks on the table. Is this true OR the DBA is saying something wrong? My thinking is that Microsoft will never include triggers if they are unreliable and the DBA is just wanting to offload the extra DBA task of triggers to the programmer so that a stored procedure is getting called, so he has less headache on his hands.Thanks

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Introduce New Select / Join From Another Table Without Duplicating Original Data

Feb 19, 2015

I built a query that brings in 'Discounts' (bolded) to the Order detail by using the bolded syntax below. I started off by running the query without the bolded lines and got exactly what I was looking for but without the ‘Discount’ column. When I tried to add the ‘Discount’ into the query, it duplicated several order lines. Although total ‘Discount’ column ties out to the total amount expected in that column, ‘Total Charges’ are now several times higher than before.

For example, I get 75 records when I run without the bolded syntax and I get several hundred results back when adding back in the bolded syntax when i should still be getting 75 records, just with an additional column ‘PTL Discount’ subtotaled.My question is, how to I introduce a new select or join from another table without duplicating the original data?

select
first_stop.actual_departure ‘Start'
, last_stop.actual_departure 'End'
, last_stop.city_name 'End city'
, last_stop.state 'End state'
, last_stop.zip_code 'End zip'

SQL Server 2008 :: Setting To Not Rollback A Failed SSIS Package That Inserts 100 Million Records?

May 20, 2015

I have a pretty simple SSIS package that fast loads a 100 million record table into a SQL Server 2008 table on a daily basis. This normally runs fine and completes in about 1 hour. As this is perhaps one of our largest running SSIS packages, about once every 2-3 weeks this SSIS will fail/drop connection. Once it fails, the large number of records will start rolling back. This rollback process can take 1+ hours so I cannot even restart the failed SSIS package immediately. This is a problem.

I am looking for a solution or option so I do not have to wait on that rollback to restart this particular, long running SSIS package. Is there an option/setting to leave the partial data set committed and not rollback? Then I could just restart the SSIS package immediately or set it the SSIS to auto-restart 1 time on failure. The first step in the SSIS does a truncate of the destination table.

How Do I Script INSERTS From An ASP Membership Table Onto Live Server Table

Aug 7, 2007

Hi,I would have used the aspnet membership tool to auto-create all the ASP.NET membership tables.  However, the hosting company don't allow remote connections which meant I had to create the tables by hand, scripting the tables using script to CREATE using management studio.However, I noticed one of the tables has data without any users: aspnet_SchemaVersions, which causes an error when trying to log onto my site.The fix is to make sure the table has the 4-5 rows of data in it (which is missing off the live server).  Its just a few rows of data, but I want to script the inserts for each row so I don't have to type them in using myLittleAdmin (the host's web version of management studio). Can anyone point me in the right direction?

SQL Server 2008 :: Inner Join Database Table With XML Data

Jan 25, 2011

I have a XML data passed on to the stored proc in the following format, and within the stored proc I am accessing the data of xml using the nodes() method

Here is an example of what i am doing

DECLARE @Participants XML
SET @Participants = '<ArrayOfEmployees xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<Employees EmpID="1" EmpName="abcd" />
<Employees EmpID="2" EmpName="efgh" />
</ArrayOfEmployees >'

SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)

the above query produces the following result

EmployeeID EmployeeName
--------------- -----------
1 abcd
2 efgh

How do I join the data coming out from the above query with another table in the database, for example Employee in this case

i.e. somewhat like this (note the following query does not perform the join correctly)

SELECT Participants.Node.value('@EmpID', 'INT') AS EmployeeID,
Participants.Node.value('@EmpName', 'VARCHAR(50)') AS EmployeeName
FROM
@Participants.nodes('/ArrayOfEmployees /Employees ') Participants (Node)
INNER JOIN
Employee EMP ON EmployeeID = EMP .EmployeeID

My desired output after the join would be

EmployeeID EmployeeName Email Home Address
--------------- ----------- --------------- -----------
1 abcd abcd@abcd.com New York
2 efgh efgh@efgh.com Austin

SQL Server 2008 :: Getting Duplicate Data When Connecting To Another Table

[SenderId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[Message] [nvarchar](max) NOT NULL,
[SentDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_MailBox.Message] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

[Code] ....

I'm building a messaging functionality in to my application, I'm able to insert a message into the database and this message then appears inside the other users inbox. The issue I have it when I click on this message to view the conversation I make a call to the following sp as shown here:

@UserId bigint,
@SenderId bigint
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;

[Code] .....

The problem with this is I'm trying to connect to the user photos table to return their profile picture, but for some reason even though I have specified IsProfilePic I get all the photos returned, instead it should be two photos, one for the @UserId and the other for the @SenderId, its equivalent to me doing this:

Select *
From [User].[User_Photos]
where (UserId = 1 or UserId = 2) and IsProfilePic = 1

And this returns me the correct information.

SQL Server 2008 :: How To See Table Variable Data In SSMS Debugger

There does not appear to be a way to expand or drill into this variable in the debugger to see the data. Do you know if there's a way to do this through the debugger or do you use an alternate approach when using the SSMS debugger?

SQL Server 2008 :: Does Change Data Capture Require A Table Have Primary Key

Jan 13, 2013

Or can it record before and after column changes based on the LSN only?

An extract from a file based legacy accounting system is performed every night. The system does not have a primary key because transactions are managed through program code. (the more things change...). The extract is copied to text in Unix and FTP'd to Windows, where the file is loaded into SQL Server by kill & fill. Because of the expense of modifying the source system, there is enormous inertia/resistance to injecting a primary key at the source, so kill & fill it stays.

In reading about Change Data Capture, it seemed to me that column level insert update and delete are stored in tables that remember the before and after content of each column tracked. In my reading I have seen many references to the LSN to decide when and what to record as changed, but I have not seen any refereference to the necessity of a primary key for Change Data Capture to work. This is in contrast to replication, where the requirement for the existence of a primary key is made plain.

Is it possible to use Change Data Capture against a table without a primary key? How to use it to change the extract from kill and fill to incremental.
