SQL Server 2008 :: Iterate Through Database Tables?
Mar 18, 2015
MS SQL 2008.I want to execute a delete query on certain tables in my database to delete some rows in the tables.The tables selected has a certain name pattern (the name ends with "Temp").
So I can do this to get a list of the table names
SELECT name
FROM sys.Tables where
name like '%Temp'
Now I want to check each table to see if it has a column with the name "DateStamp" and then execute a delete query as follows:
delete form TableName where
DateStamp is < '2010-01-01'
In other words I need to iterate through the tables names, How to do this?

How does one setup a SSIS package to iterate through all (or selected) tables in a database. The reason is to update an internal database nightly using an approach similar to how Jamie Thomson stated in the below article.

how best to approach a problem involving two tables across two different servers.
Table 1: Contains IP Address along with assessment findings. Lets say the fields are IPADDRESSSTR, FINDING
Table 2: Contains Subnet information stored in integer format. The fields are SITE_ID, LOW, and HIGH
What I'd like to do is load the IP range information into memory and then return the findings from table 1 where the IPADDRESSSTR is between the LOW and HIGH integer value.
1) Is there a way to load all of the ranges from table 2 into an array and then compare all the IP addresses (IPADDRESSSTR) from table 1?
2) How do I convert IPADDRESSSTR (a string) to an integer to perform the comparison.

The database has approx. 2500 temporary tables. The temp tables match a pattern such as APTMP... I tried deleting the tables in SSMS with the statement, Delete from Information_Schema.tables where substring(table_name,1,5) = 'APTMP' This returns the error message"Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed".
What is the correct way to delete a group of tables whose name match a pattern from within SSMS?

I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name,
c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;

c.name AS column_name
FROM sys.tables AS t8
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID

In our Production db we have all most all tables have the column created or createdate.
I need to find out all tables without the created or createdate column

How many no of records of the tables are called large tables.
We are getting more deadlocks. We are using default isolation. Read & insert statements are blocking each other and causes dead locks.
I am thinking that might be purging will reduce deadlocks.
The table has 15million records. Is this table consider as large table or not in OLTP systems?
In general how many records we need to consider as large table.

I have a table of raw data with supplier names, and i need to join it to our supplier database and pull the supplier numbers.
The issue is that the raw data does not match our database entries for these suppliers; sometimes there are extra periods, commas, or abbreviations (i.e. FedEx, FederalExpress, FedEx, inc.) etc. I'm trying to create a query that will search for entries that are similar.
I tried setting a variable to be equal to the raw data field, and then using a LIKE '%@Variable%' to try and return anything that would contain it, but it didnt return any rows.

Let's say that I have a stored proc that is assigned to a service broker queue and is constantly running while it waits for messages in said queue. When a message comes in on the queue, the stored proc creates a table variable based off of the contents of the message and performs various operations with the data. Since the stored proc is constantly running, do the contents of this table variable ever truly get emptied? Should I be deleting the contents of the table variable at the end of the operation to ensure that stale data doesn't persist?

I'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?

I'm presented with an issue where by I need to reclaim a fair bit of unused space currently sat in the primary data file for my database. I don't want to run DBCC SHRINKDATABASE as we all know this could potentially have a some serious negative effects relating to index fragmentation.
So, how do I get the free space out of the data file? - I've decided to:
1. Add new new file group
2. Add a clustered index for all tables on the new file group
3. Shrink the primary file group as much as possible (hopefully giving me the free space back)
4. Drop the newly created clustered indexes for all tables
There are no clustered indexes currently for any of the tables!, so me temporarily creating/dropping one shouldn't be an issue. Are there any other ways I can get the free space back to the OS?

I've recently started a new position and our production box. Contains a procedure that uses 30 + temp tables. I'm currently not in a position to change this as it's production and I would have to be granted a window to re-design.
However the tempDb is showing some strange activity.
If a table is created #CarrierService (CarrierServiceID,DeliveryZoneID,CollectionZoneID) for example
Once the procedure is called It will appear in the tempDB with the session info appended as expected
#CarrierService________________________________________________________2C78E45A
However once the session has ended the above table will get dropped and a new one created
#2C78E45A, I now have 7000 of these different Tables in the TempDB
When I Interrogate this using
SELECT o.name, o.create_date,o.modify_date , c.Name,C.Column_Id
FROM tempdb.sys.Objects o
Inner join tempdb.Sys.Columns c
ON o.object_id =c.Object_ID
WHERE o.type ='U'
I get the Following results
name create_date modify_date object_id name
#2C78E45A26/04/2015 18:0930/04/2015 14:55746120282CarrierServiceId
#2C78E45A26/04/2015 18:0930/04/2015 14:55746120282CollectionZoneId
#2C78E45A26/04/2015 18:0930/04/2015 14:55746120282DeliveryZoneId

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.

For finding size values of temp database:
select * from sys.master_files -
size column value here is 1024 for .mdf,size here for .ldf is 64
select * from tempdb.sys.database_files -
size column value here is 3576 for .mdf,size here for .ldf is 224
Why is there a difference and not the same. size columns in the above 2 tables for temp db's do they represent different values ?

1) "Deferred compile" recompile event occurs because of deferred name resolution. In other words, an object referred to in the statement does not exist at compile time. Later, when the object does exist, it requires a recompile of the statement so that it can create an optimal execution plan. One example of when a deferred compile will occur is if a temporary table is used in a batch and does not exist when the first statements in the batch are compiled.

I have two queries from two different tables ex ABC and BCD. For table ABC, according to my query, I got 11 records ; for table BCD I only got 9 records.
Bottom line: I would like to see only 11 records from Table ABC including certain data from table BCD after I joined this two tables.
However, no matter what I did I always got 99 records when I joined.

I have a table containing records of criminal convictions. There are over 1M records and the only change is additions to the table on a monthly basis. The two columns I need to deal with are convicted.NAME and convicted.DOB
I have a second table that has 2 columns. One is the name of the defendant and the other is the birth date. This would be monitor.NAME and monitor.DOB
There are no primary keys or any other way to join the tables for this search I want to do.
I would like to be able to put a name in the "monitor" table and run a query to see if there is a match in the convicted table.
The problem I am having is middle initials or names. If I want to monitor.name = 'SMITH JOHN' it will return the results fine. The problem I am having is if the conviction is in the database as 'SMITH JOHN T', or 'SMITH JOHN THOMAS'.
How can I use the monitor table with a 'LASTNAME FIRSTNAME' and return results if the convicted table has a middle initial. I tried with a JOIN:
select distinct convicted.*
from convicted
join monitor
on monitor.name like convicted.defendant
and monitor.birthdate = convicted.dob

select a.field, b.field, c.field
from atblname as a inner join btblname as b on a.id = b.parent_id
left outer join ctblname as c on a.id = c.parent_id
There are more than one result when joining tbl a and c, but I'm getting a reult for each of them for all results from joining a and b.

We have an existing BI/DW process that adds large chunks of data daily (~10M rows) to an existing table, as well as using Deletes to remove stale data. This scenario seems to beg for partitioning to support switching in/out data.
After lots of reading on this, I have figured out the mechanics of the switching, bit I still have some unknowns about the indexes needed to support this.
The table currently has several non-clustered indexes, including one on the partitioning column - let's call that column snapshotdate. Fortunately there are no FKs involved, and no constraints.
Most of the partitioning material I see focuses on creating a clustered PK to assist with switching. Not sure if this is actually necessary, but assume I create one using an Identity column (currently missing) plus snapshotdate.
For the other non-clustered, non-unique indexes, can I just add the snapshotdate to the end of the index? i.e. will that satisfy the switching requirement?
