I have a Table-valued Function already defined in my DB. When I look at it's Properties, it lists Encrypted TRUE.
How can I set Encrypted to FALSE? Is there a t-sql command to ALTER the Function to set Encrypted False?
(fyi, I am syadmin and local admin on this SQL 2008 R2 box)
The passwords in table 'users', column 'passwordencrypted' are encrypted. Someone enters a password and I'd like to compare if it is correct. The syntax below seems ok but nothing is returned. Why not?
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY mykey DECRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE mycert;
DECLARE @mypw varchar(300);
SET @mypw = 'test';
SELECT * FROM users WHERE passwordencrypted = EncryptByKey(Key_GUID('mykey'), @mypw);
CLOSE SYMMETRIC KEY mykey;
I am trying to run a test migration of our application from V8 to V9. To do this I am creating an empty database by running the Tasks -> Script database
Once that is done, I restore it to our dev server and run SQLCompare against it to generate the change scripts
The problem I am facing is that there are a few tables that have encrypted triggers on them and I cannot include them in the generate scripts. I want to take the table structure, including indexes, but I am not interested in the triggers. There are only 5 tables so I could script them by hand, but this means that I cannot automate the process.
As a result of the missing tables SQLCompare will try to generate a CREATE TABLE rather than an ALTER TABLE DDL
The live migration won't be a problem because this will be a database restore and migration - my problem is the CREATE TABLE DDLs in the script.
I queried sys.databases in one of the sql server and found "is_encrypted" is "1" for four of the databases.
Does that mean that all those 4 DBs are encrypted ?
How to check if the database itself is encrypted or only the backups ?
Note :- I can see backups of key in a particular folder.
I have created a phone list and am using a union to be able to display letter category. However, what I would like to do is only show the letter category if their is an employee with the corresponding last name.
For example, if someone does not have a last name starting with "Z", then "Z" should not show up on my report.
SELECT LastName, FirstName, Dept, Phone
UNION ALL
SELECT v.letter,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL
FROM (VALUES('A'),('B'),('C'),('D'),('E'),('F'),('G'),('H'),('I'),('J'),('K'),('L'),('M'),('N'),('O'),('P'),('Q'),('R'),('S'),('T'),('U'),('V'),('W'),('X'),('Y'),('Z')) AS v(letter)
ORDER BY vchLastName, vchFirstName
SELECT DISTINCT
'Banquets - All Day' as revName,
SUM(t.c_items_total) AS Banquet_Total,
SUM(t.cover_count) as Total_Covers,
-- (t.c_items_total) / (t.cover_count) as AvgPer_Cover--
[Code] ....
The output needs to be grouped by the t.c_items_total...I just need the avg per cover (person) / items_total.
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?

I am new to SQL and I haven't written any scripts in the past. I thought I would give it a go. Basically, I am trying to write a script that will check if a database has more than one log files, free the VLFs that belong to the secondary log files and then remove them. I created a database named rDb as this link suggests and followed the steps.

It works. However, I want to have to run just 1 script that will do the entire job. This is what I have gotten so far and it doesn't work:

I'm presented with a problem where I have a database table which must be migrated via a "custom tool", moving the data into a new table which has special character requirements that didn't exist in the source database. My data resides in an SQL Server 2008R2 instance.
I envision a one-time query which will loop through selected records and replace the offending characters with --, however I'm having trouble understanding how this works.
There are roughly 2500 records which meet the criteria of "contains bad characters", frequently containing multiple separate bad chars, and the table contains roughly 100000 rows.
Special Characters are defined as #%&*:<>?/{}|~ and ..
While the field is called "Filename" it isn't always so, it is a parent/child table where foldernames are also stored.
Example data:
Tablename = Items
ItemID Filename ListID
1 Badfile<2015>.docx 15
2 Goodfile.docx 15
3 MoreBad#.docx 15
4 Dog&Cat#17.pdf 15
5 John's "Special" Folder 16
The examples I'm finding are all oriented around SELECT statements, to change the output of what I see returned, however I'd rather just fix the entire column using an UPDATE. Initial testing using REPLACE fails because I don't always have a single character as the bad thing in a string.
In a better solution, I found an example using a User Defined Function to modify the output of a select, but I cannot use that UDF in an UPDATE.
My alternative is to learn enough C# to modify the "migration tool" to do this in-transit, but I know even less about C# than I do of SQL.
I gather I want to use @@ROWCOUNT to loop through the rows but I really can't put it all together in a cohesive way.
I am trying to use get date function, I want dates of my column in between, first of this month and first of the previous month, at this moment the expected result would be: (09/01/2015 and 10/01/2015)..
Seems like it would involve datediff and dateadd both...
SELECT LEFT(InstanceName,CHARINDEX(' ',InstanceName)-1)

Returns the following error.
Invalid length parameter passed to the SUBSTRING function.
Recently I have come across a requirement where i need to design a table.
There are some columns in table like below with DECIMAL Datatype:
BldgLength
BldgHeight
BldgWeight
Based on my knowledge, i know that values before Floating-Point will not be more than 4 digits.
Now as per MSDN,
Precision => 1 - 9
Storage bytes => 5
so i can create column as:
BldgLengthDECIMAL(6,2) DEFAULT 0
OR
BldgLengthDECIMAL(9,2) DEFAULT 0
Now while reading some articles, i came to know that when we do some kind of operation like SUM Or Avg, on above column then result might be larger than current data type.
So some folks suggested me that i should keep some extra space/digits considering above MATH functions, to avoid an Arithmetic Over Flow error.
So my question is what should be value of DataType for above column ?
We are trying to upgrade a SQL server 2000 to a SQL 2008 R2 (SP1) server. After migrating, the developer test code, and got an error: ERROR [HY010] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Function sequence error...But this is a release for 2008, ours is already 2008 R2 SP1, so that hot fix should already be included since it is always cumulative.

I have created the below function and apply it on a column in a table to replace the below identified values with Blank. It works fine but i have so many different varieties of values i need to add to ths list. Is there any way i insert these values in a table and call the values from that table instead of writing separate SET Statements.

I'm unable to reproduce the error. when they upgrade their OS and SQL EXPRESS to a more recent version the error disappears.
The error is: Incorrect syntax near '.'
the query in question resembles this:
Select column1, column2
from Table1 T
cross apply function(t.column4,t.column5) F
where column3 = 'XXXX'
I made sure that the compatibility level is greater than 90 this error is happening on SQL2005 SP2 as well as SQL2008 with SP2 (but not all clients are suffering from the same problem)
Can it be the .net framework? Although the machines had .net framework 3.52.
Can the OS be an issue? The OS' seem to be old, Windows Server 2008 SP2
I've tried to reproduce the error by setting up virtual machines with same OS and SQL but, again, can't reproduce.

I have a recursive CTE on an inline table valued function. I need to set the MAXRECURSION option on the CTE, but SQL Server is complaining with "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'OPTION'".
It works fine on non-inline function. I couldn't find any documentation indicating this wasn't possible.
I can use the MAXRECURSION option in call to the function
SELECT * FROM MyFunction ()
OPTION ( MAXRECURSION 0 )
but that means that the user needs to know the "MyFunction" uses recursive CTE, which defeats the purpose of the abstraction.
Is it possible to pass multiple values to a TVF, such as using an IN clause?

I have 2008 installed and have 'smoke tested' it (tried it on the several projects and don't appear to have any show stopper type issues). Anyways, I'd really like to remove VS 2005 if at all possible. My concern is what effect removing that is going to have one the following other installs:
SQL Server 2005 Express
SQL Management Studio (Enterprise NOT Express)
.NET Framework v2.0
If anyone can weight in on the effect uninstalling 2005 is going to have, or ways to 'safely' uninstall it without affecting any of the other installs, please let me know...
