SQL Server 2008 :: Identify Columns And / Or Tables From Records
Mar 3, 2015I'm using MS SQL Server 2008 and I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to identify what tables / columns contain specific records.
In the example below information generated for the end user, so the column headers (Customer ID, Customer, Address, Phone, Email, Account Balance, Currency) are not necessarily the field names from the relevant tables, they are simply more identifiable headers for the user.
Customer ID CustomerAddress Phone Email Account Balance Currency
js0001 John Smith123 Nowhere Street555-123-456 jsmith@nowhere.com-100 USD
jd2345 Jane Doe 61a Down the road087-963258 jdoe@downthe road.com-2108 GBP
mx9999 Mr X Whoknowsville 147-852369 mrx@whoknows.com0 EUR
In reality the column headers may be called eg (CustID, CustName, CustAdr, CustPh, CustMail, CustACBal, Currency).
As I am not the generator of this report, I would like to know whether or not it is possible to identify the field names and / or what tables they exist in, if I were to used the report info to search for it. For example, could I perhaps find out the field name and table for "jd2345" or for "mrx@whoknows.com", because the Customer ID or Email may not be what the actual fields are called.
I'm not a DB admin and I don't have rights to do a stored procedure on the server. I'm guessing what I want is not so simple to do, but is it possible to do via a query?

Feb 1, 2012I am task with identifying the source database name, id, and server name for each staging table that I create. I need to add this to a derived column on all staging tables created from merging same tables on different servers together.
When doing a Merge Join, there is no way to identify the source of data so I would like to see if data came from one database more than the other servers or if their are duplicates across servers.
The thing that bugs me about SSIS Data Flow task is there is no way to do an easy Execute SQL Task after I select my ADO.NET Source to get this information because my connection string is dynamic and there is no way of know which data source is being picked up at runtime.
For Example I have Products table on Server 1 and 2:
Server 2 has more Products and would like to join the two together to create a staging table.
I want see the following:
Product ID, Product Name, Qty, Src_DB_ID, Src_DB_Name, Src_Server_Name
1 IPAD 1000 2, MyDB1, Server1
100 ASUS Pad 40 1, YourDB, Server2
get database name and server name in DATA FLOW only (without using a for each in Control Flow)
SQL Server 2008 :: Identify If Remote Login Resolved Database Server Via IP / Servername Or FQDN
Feb 16, 2015Is it possible to view the Connection String information of a remote login/session? I want to know if the login is looking-up the database server via IP address, servername (NetBIOS name) or fully-qualified domain name (FQDN).
Using these DMVs I can get a lot of relevant information:
sys.dm_exec_sessions
Program Name (eg. Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio),
Client Interface Name (eg. .Net SqlClient Data Provider)
sys.dm_exec_connections
Net Transport (eg. TCP),
Client Net Address and TCP Port
but not how the server's IP address was resolved. Is the connection string ever sent by the client to the server, or just used for DNS lookup?

SQL Server 2008 :: Identify Incoming DB Links To Server
May 10, 2015We are doing a review of a SQL 2008 server. Though we can identify what are the linked servers to the database.

Will the DB logs support in identifying all attempted and successful DB link connections.
DB Engine :: Using Metadata To Identify Which Objects Update Tables?
May 6, 2015we run 2008 std edition (I believe r2 on this server, will double check) and I need to find a needle in a haystack.
I am looking at two tables and would like to learn which, if any objects on same db updates these tables. I'd even live with any references to these tables. I already know sql agent is out of the picture. I'm looking for a static approach, not a monitoring one because its possible updates don't occur till month end.
Is there a way in sql server to query the answer to such a question using dmvs or something like dmvs? What if I get bold and want to search all db's on this server for objects that update my two tables even across dbs?
In the mean time, i'll look at scripting all triggers and procs , and doing a search on these table names in the scripts.
I don't know that I've ever seen a way to script all triggers before. Procs I can easily script from the object explorer details. But I'm not sure if in explorer details--> server objects --> triggers does what I hope it does.
SQL Server 2008 :: Easy Way To Compare Contents Of Objects Between 2 Different Databases?
Jul 20, 2015Is there an easy way to compare the contents of objects between 2 different databases? For example, say I had 2 databases, My_DB_1 and My_DB_2, each with a SEC_User table. Say I wanted to do an object-to-object comparison between databases to see if there were any differences. Here's some sample SQL:
use My_DB_1
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')
use My_DB_2
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')
Say that the result sets above both returned a SEC_GetUser sproc object ref. Is there a way to write SQL that will compare the SEC_GetUser sprocs (and other objects in the above rowsets) from both databases? For example, if My_DB_1.SEC_GetUser returns an extra column in the result set than My_DB_2.SEC_GetUser then I'd like my comparison SQL to return a single column "IsDifferent" with SEC_GetUser as a row....

SQL Server 2012 :: Identify Sets That Have Same Items (where Set ID And Items In Same Table)
Feb 25, 2015I am struggling to come up with a set-based solution for this problem (i.e. that doesn't involve loops/cursors) ..A table contains items (identified by an ItemCode) and the set they belong to (identified by a SetId). Here is some sample data:

Transfer Sql Server Objects Task Truncate Table Fails Due To Foreign Key
Aug 10, 2006Hi
We used to used Sql Server 2000 DTS to perform daily backups to remote servers very successfully but just cannot do the same with SSIS.
I set my Transfer Sql Transfer Objects Task to use the following settings:
CopyData = true
ObjectsTocopy = All Tables
As soon as it hits a table that has a foreign key, I get the following error:
"Truncate data failed for Table nnn"
I've tried setting DropObjectsFirst = True but this fails too with foreign key violations.
First of all, am I doing something obviously wrong? Is SSIS not smart enough to drop tables in the right order so that we don't get foreign key violations?
Am I totally barking up the wrong tree with this and can anyone suggest a better way of doing remote backups?
Kind regards
Ben

How Do I Identify The Base Table For A PageID?

Dynamic Excel Destination Depend On Dataflow Data
Jul 10, 2007I created a data flow with complaicated SQL. There is "type" field in the output column.
I would like to created excel files for each "type" value
E.g. If there is 3 "type" values (A, B, C), I would like to create 3 excel files to store type A, type B, and type C data respectively.
Since the number of possibe value of "type" field is various, how can I create the xls destination dynamic and move the correct type to the corresponding excel file?
The conditional split has fixed conditions, it is not suitable for by dynamic number of value
For Loop condition is not a good choice because I need to run the complicated SQL for many time.
Thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIdentify Range And Related Data From Look Up Table
Dec 27, 2007I have a query/report that I need to create that needs to look at the size of a company and based on that size apply different rules. I am sure that this is not the only query/report I'll need to do using this and I'm also not so sure that the size ranges won't be changed in the future. Given this, I'd like to store the size ranges in a lookup(global) table. That way, if the ranges ever change I can just alter them in that table and not in all of the queries/reports that use them. What I need to figure out is how to join the live table with the look up table.
Specifically, here is what I have. The look up table would be:
Code Block
CREATE TABLE #gl_sizerange (
glsid int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
lowsize int,
highsize int,
sizecat varchar(10),
milestone varchar(25),
days int
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(1, 24, 'Small', 'Approach', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(1, 24, 'Small', 'Interview', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(1, 24, 'Small', 'Demonstrate', 21)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(1, 24, 'Small', 'Negotiate', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(1, 24, 'Small', 'Close', 7)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(25, 99, 'Medium', 'Approach', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(25, 99, 'Medium', 'Interview', 21)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(25, 99, 'Medium', 'Demonstrate', 21)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(25, 99, 'Medium', 'Negotiate', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(25, 99, 'Medium', 'Close', 7)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(100, 499, 'Large', 'Approach', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(100, 499, 'Large', 'Interview', 21)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(100, 499, 'Large', 'Demonstrate', 21)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(100, 499, 'Large', 'Negotiate', 14)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(100, 499, 'Large', 'Close', 7)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(500, 300000000, 'Super', 'Approach', 28)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(500, 300000000, 'Super', 'Interview', 35)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(500, 300000000, 'Super', 'Demonstrate', 28)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(500, 300000000, 'Super', 'Negotiate', 35)
INSERT into #gl_sizerange VALUES(500, 300000000, 'Super', 'Close', 35)
Then what I have is two more tables, one that indicates the size of the company and another that has the milestone contained within it and I will also calculate how long that milestone has been open and if it is longer than what is in the lookup table for that milestone and size range I need it returned in the report. Here are some quick sample table to represent that data (I've condensed the size and number of tables for the example):
Code Block
CREATE TABLE #en_entity (
enid int NOT NULL,
orgsize int,
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(1, 5)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(2, 18)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(3, 24)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(4, 25)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(5, 47)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(6, 101)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(7, 499)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(8, 500)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(9, 10000)
INSERT into #en_entity VALUES(10, 567890)
CREATE TABLE #op_opportunity (
opid int NOT NULL,
enid int NOT NULL,
milestone varchar(25),
daysopen int
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(1, 1, 'Approach', 5)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(2, 2, 'Interview', 18)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(3, 4, 'Negotiate', 24)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(4, 7, 'Demonstrate', 25)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(5, 7, 'Approach', 7)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(6, 9, 'Close', 35)
INSERT into #op_opportunity VALUES(7, 8, 'Close', 36)
So, given the sample data, I would expect the results to return me the following opids from the #op_opportunity table because they don't comply with what is in the look up table based on milestone, size and days open: 2,3,4,7
