I have the default trace on a SQL Server 2008R2 instance enabled and found today that there is a gap of nearly 4 minutes in the trace during a time of the day when there most certainly is not going to be a 4 minute window of nothing.
What if anything could cause the default trace to have a gap like this? The SQL Server Instance (against my preferences) is hosted on VMware however it has its on HOST and so its resources are not being shared with any other server. The data & log files reside on different parts of the SANS. Our IT & Network admins are looking into the issue on their end but when I looked and found a near 4 minute gap in the default trace it hit me that this could be something above/outside of SQL Server.
I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.
I have to create a table like this across a bunch of servers. I'm thinking that I'm overlooking something with needing two additional CTEs, but maybe not. I have it at 17 seconds, which isn't much faster than a while loop solution that's currently in place.
I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual (empno, accrued_vacation, accrued_sick_effective_date, accrued_sick, import_date)
Create a table with an Identity column, insert data / restart the server / insert more data / restart the server/ insert some more data.
My data looks like this : Identity column 1 2 3 1002 1003 1004 1005 2002 2004
It looks like the indentity value gain +~1000 after most server restart (sometimes identity stay the same). This can be very dangerous for some datatype! The only thing google told me was this : URL...but microsoft did not comment on it yet!
The SP UserPersist_GetByCriteria does a "SELECT * FROM tbl_User WHERE gender = @Gender AND culture = @Culture", so why am I receiving this error when both tables have the same structure?
The error is being reported as coming from UserPersist_GetByCriteria on the "SELECT * FROM tbl_User" line.
I have a system log with NULL gaps between a sequence of numbers...see "BEFORE" sample below.
The number of gaps between the Sequence_ID's are arbitrary, but generally less then 50 records.
I'd like enumerate the gaps to produce the "AFTER" result, but do it with a single query or view, not through procedures.
I've been playing with windowed functions and groupings with no success. I'm guessing it'll need some recursive CTE logic, but I haven't been able to figure it out the correct loop.
See sample data below. I want hourly breakdown for the last X years, the month and day will be the same for each year.

I created am inventory table with few columns say, Servername, version, patching details, etc
I want a tracking of the table.
Let's say people are asked to modify the base table and I want a complete capture of the details modified and the session of the user ( ) who (system_user) is actually modifying the details.
I am trying to insert bulk data into main table from staging table in sql server 2012. If any error comes, this total activity is rollbacked. I don't want that to happen. I want to know the records where ever the problem persists, and the rest has to be inserted.
I have a scenario where I have to Update a table with date when there are new records in another table
For example:
I load ODS table with the data from a file in SSIS. the file has CustomerID and other columns.
Now, when there is new record for any customerID in Ods, then Update the dbo table with the most recent record for every CustomerID(i.e. update the date column in dbo for that customerID). Also Include an Identifier that relates back to the ODS table. How do I do this?
I have two table 'Cal_date' and 'RPT_Invoice_Shipped'.Table cal_data has column month_no, start_date and end_date. And table RPT_Invoice_Shipped has columns Day_No, Date, Div_code, Total_Invoiced, Shipped_Value, Line_Shipped, Unit_Shipped, Transaction_Date.
I am using below insert statment to insert data in RPT_Invoice_Shipped table.
insert into [Global_Report_Staging].[dbo].[RPT_Invoice_Shipped] (Day_No, Date, Div_code, Total_Invoiced, Transaction_Date) select , CONVERT(DATE,Getdate()) as Date, LTRIM(RTRIM(div_Code)), sum(tot_Net_Amt) as Total_Invoiced, (dateadd(day, -1, convert(date, getdate()))) from [Global_Report_Staging].[dbo].[STG_Shipped_Invoiced] WHERE CONVERT(DATE,Created_date )=CONVERT(DATE,Getdate()) group by div_code
while inserting in column Day_No in RPT_Invoice_Shipped table, I have to use formula (Transaction_Date-start_date+1) where Transaction_Date from STG_Shipped_Invoiced and start_date from Cal_date table. I was using datepart (mm, Transaction_Date) so it gives month_no, and this month_no we can join with month_no of Cal_date table and fetch start_date from Cal_date table, so that we can use start_date for formula (Transaction_Date-start_date+1).
But I am getting difficulty to arrange this in above query. how to achieve this?

This statement parses. I can preview the data. I've tried to set up both an OLE DB destination to a SQL Server table and an MS Access table destination (Jet). In either case, the data will not populate the tables. I set up a Data Viewer, and no data appears in the Viewer. With the Access destination, I have the package set up to run in 32 bit mode.
If data appears in the preview, then why doesn't the data appear in the data viewer, and why will the data not populate either of the destination tables?
Now I have to populate the fact & dimension tables by writing sql scripts. Now I have already populated the dimension tables by writing sql script, But I have to populate the fact table taking into account, here I am facing problem in wriring sql script
(i) unit_price is taken from the book base table with reference to the isbn (ii) sales_quantity is taken from the order_detail.quantity with reference to table cust_order(via orderid & orderdate) (iii) discount_price is determined dependent on the quantity. if the quantity > 20 then discount 20 %(i.e discount_price = 0.8 * unit_price). if quantity < 10, no discount i.e normal price. if quantity between 10 and 20, discount 10%. Note that the quantity is determined based on each order of each customer, thus if the same book appears at multiple positions in an order, those positions shall be grouped together. This could happen because the pk of the order_detail table is order_id + item no, not order_id + isbn (iv) sales_amount is sales_quantity * discount_price
Hi all,I have two tables tbl_A and tbl_B.Table Definitions:tbl_A (field_1, field_2, field_3)tbl_B (field_1, field_2)I would like to populate tbl_B when a record is inserted into tbl_A.Note that tbl_A.field_1 = tbl_B.field_1 and tbl_A.field_2 =tbl_B.field_2 .How do I write a trigger on tbl_A to get the corresponding recordinserted into tbl_B?RegardsJune.....
Hi.I have a problem I hope someone can help me with.I have a database of events. Each event has a date and a duration(days).What I need to do is to be able to display search for events on someweb pages. My problem is that if an event is on say 15 nov 2004 andhas a duration of 3 days, at the moment if someone searches for the16th nov 2004 that event wont show up. To solve this what I have triedto do is put a trigger on my events table that populates another tableeach time a record is inserted. In the other table (orderedevents) anentry is added for each day specified in the duration field. I can thequery this table for the search. For example if this is added into theevents tableTitle: Event1Date: 15/11/2004Duration: 3Then this would be added to the orderedevents tableTitle: Event1Date: 15/11/2004Duration: 3Title: Event1Date: 16/11/2004Duration: 3Title: Event1Date: 17/11/2004Duration: 3This is what I have got so far. Someone kindly helped me with thisbefore but they had developed it on MySql, I'm using Sql Server and itdoesn't seem to work. All it does is add a blank row to OrderedEvents.Can anyone suggest any amendments that will make it work on SqlServer?CREATE Trigger TriggerInsertOrderedEventsON eventsFOR INSERTASSET NOCOUNT ONDECLARE @CountDuration int,@FixedDuration int,@eventdate datetime,@EventTitle varcharSET @CountDuration = 0SET @EventTitle = (SELECT EventTitle FROM inserted)SET @FixedDuration = (SELECT EventDuration FROM inserted)SET @EventDate = (SELECT EventDate FROM inserted)WHILE (@CountDuration <= @FixedDuration - 1)BEGININSERT OrderedEvents (Eventdate,EventDuration,EventTitle)VALUES(dateadd(day,@CountDuration,@EventDate),@Fix edDuration,@EventTitle)SET @CountDuration = @CountDuration + 1ENDSET NOCOUNT OFFThanks in advance.
Hello all, I would like to populate a calendar table similar to the one used in the foodmart2005 sample database. In this table the day of the week, month, and year are recorded as well as additional data which I do not require. If possible I would like to populate the table with 10 years of data starting with 2007.
Secondly would 10 years of data make the table to large?
I have 2 tables in a parent->child relationship. The primary key for the parent table is moving to a new column (that is an Identity). I'd like to relink the tables using the identity field.
Here's the structure: Parent refid int (Identity) - NEW PK orderid char(9) - OLD PK
Child orderdetailid int - PK orderid char(9) - Old link to parent refid int - New link to parent
I've populated refid in the parent. I just need to populate the refid column in the child. I have a VFP background. In VFP I would have looped through the child, found the matching record in the parent, then transfered the data over. I don' t have a clue how to do this in TSQL.
I created a table with 4 columns. I have a file on disk generated from an Excel spreadsheet. It is a comma-delimited CSV file. It has 4 columns corresponding to the ones I set up in the new table. How do I populate the table with data from the CSV file?
My ASP.Net app is multilingual and all my translations are stored in seperate MSDE tables, for example, tblEN for English, tblES for Spanish and tblTH for Thai.
When I send the installation files to my clients, I get them to double click on 4 MS DOS batch files that use OSQL to run 4 scripts.....
1. DataBase&Tables.sql - creates the database and tables 2. Logins&Users.sql 3. StoredProcedures.sql 4. Permissions.sql
This worked great before my language table came along to spoil the party and I now need some way of getting the data stored in the language on my server into the table on the client.
If I export the data to a text file and then send it out with the rest of the installation files - what are my options for transferring the data into the table ?
Hi,I have table (tbl_a) that get it values form three Dropdown List and the PK of this table is FK in different table(tbl_b).Since tbl_a get its values from three Dropdown List the number of rows in this table is limited to the number of combinations the three Dropdown List is offer (in any case the number of raws in that table will be final).Assuming tbl_a and tbl_b are both empty. The problem is that if i want to insert row to tbl_b i have to check first if there is a row that holds the values (or combination of values) i am getting from the Dropdown List in tbl_a .Then, if such row is exist i have to get the PK of that raw and insert it to tbl_b (as FK),if such row does not exist, i have to insert it and then get the PK of this row and insert it to tbl_b (as FK). In the end, tbl_a will have all the combination the three Dropdown List can offer so checking if raw exist in this table will not be necessary. In my opinion this is not effective way to do that.Can someone offer me better way to do it? Thanks
