SQL Server 2008 :: Queries To Simulate INTERSECT And EXCEPT But With Records In Same Table
Jun 4, 2015Here's the scenario. I have a table (let's call it MyTable) that consists of four fields: Id, Source, FirstField, and SecondField, where Source only takes one of two values: Source1 and Source2.
The records in this table look as follows:
I need to return, using 3 different T-SQL queries:
1) Products that exist only in Source2 (in red above)
2) Products that exist only in Source1 (in green above)
3) Products that exist both in Source1 and Source2 (in black above)
For 1) so far I've been doing something along the lines of
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source1 AND FirstField NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT(FirstField) FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source2)
Not being a T-SQL expert myself, I'm wondering if this is the right or more efficient way to go. I have read about INTERSECT and EXCEPT, but I am a little unclear if they could be applied in this case out of the box.

Running Queries Stored As Text In Database
Jun 28, 2004An general question.
A database table contains a textfield with queries. Is it possible to run them with another query.
Code:
----ID----|-------------SQL------------------
0 |"Select * from table0
1 |"Select * from table2 where x = 3
or so?
Does any one know? It would be nice if possible very dynamic but perhaps not so safe?
Running ACT! 2008 Database On Two Laptops
Nov 3, 2007Hi guys,Hope some of you SQL database experts out there can help me, 'cos at themoment I'm going mad!I want to use ACT! 2008 which uses MSSQL on 2 Laptops, (Vista & XP) one ismy own (Vista) and the other is a company laptop. I can't synchronse using anetwork connection between the two machines because the work laptop has allmanner of hidden firewalls etc. so this is not an option. I'm really pi**edoff that ACT! 2008 can only synchronise using a network connection. When Ibought ACT! 2008 I was told synchronisation is really simple. Can't use theInternet sync as this is only available with ACT! for Workgroups.I suddenly thought of the ideal solution; as I am the only user and I onlywant to use ACT! on 2 Laptops I simply save the Database onto a Memory Stickand use that on either Laptop - very simple, convenient and actually eveneasier than having to connect the two laptops to synchronise.You guessed it - bloody problems, I can copy the Database onto the memorystick and access it from the comuter that saved it.If I try to open it from the OTHER Laptop I get an error message that I amunable to open the database and to check my network connections, SQL Serveretc!!Help, I'm going mad, there must surely be a simple solution to allow me totransfer the Database backwards and forwards quickly between the twomachines using the memory stick?Thanks in advance,Best Regards,Charles

SQL Server 2008 :: Table Migration From One Database To Another
Jul 7, 2015I'm trying to migrate tables from one database to another. The tables in the source database (MY_SOURCE_DB) have a schema of "dbo". I want to create the tables in the target database (MY_TARGET_DB) with a schema of "xyz". I want to migrate all of the tables with "contract" in the table name:
select table_name from information_schema.tables
where table_name like '%contract%'

Jan 25, 2011I 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" />

</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 :: Storing Many Queries To Export Data?
Oct 7, 2015One of my current responsibilities is to export data to 3rd party vendors. Each export can contain many csv files. The exports are all different in terms of what data is being sent.
The way I have it currently setup is each file that needs to be created is a view. An SSIS package gets the data from the view, writes to CSV, and then sftp to 3rd party vendor. This seemed like a good idea at first because the columns are static but the calculations might change. So all I have to do is ALTER VIEW and I don't have to change anything in the package.
Is there a better way of doing this? I was curious to see what other people are doing. What makes it challenging is that all the exports are so different. If they were similar I could have created generic views that cover all the exports instead of each export having its own view. Eventually I'm going to have 100's of views.
SQL Server 2008 :: Transmission Table Structure In Database Is Inconsistent

SQL Server 2008 :: Select Queries With Join Sometimes Fail On Some Remote PCs
Jul 22, 2015I have an intermittent issue where some remote PC's occasionally fail to execute select queries that have a join or return multiple result sets, however simple one table select queries continue to work okay. When it does happen the PC's needs to be rebooted to get to work again. This may only happen some PC's while others continue to work away okay.
I am using a VB6 application and ADO to connect to the database and the error message I get is a General Network Error, Server Not Found when it fails to execute the query. I have ran SQL Profiler on the server and while simple select queries continue to run away okay, a query a join does not even seem to show up in the profiler. The program has been working fine for 15 years with 1000's of users and has only now become an issue on one site for a number of users. Have tried moving the database to a different server and swapping network cards on the local PC's but can't seem to find the cause. The processor and the memory don't seem to be under load, but I am not sure if there is something else in SQL that is causing it to hang under certain conditions.
There have been network analysts experts in to run scans on the network, but I have not had the results of this back yet. Other applications do not seem to be affected so if this analysis does not show up anything.
SQL Server 2012 :: Find Queries That Lock Tables Or Not Using Primary Key While Running Update
Jul 20, 2015I need to search for such SPs in my database in which the queries for update a table contains where clause which uses non primary key while updating rows in table.
If employee table have empId as primary key and an Update query is using empName in where clause to update employee record then such SP should be listed. so there would be hundreds of tables with their primary key and thousands of SPs in a database. How can I find them where the "where" clause is using some other column than its primary key.
If there is any other hint or query to identify such queries that lock tables, I only found the above few queries that are not using primary key in where clause.
SQL Server 2008 :: Recover Data In A Table - Restoring A Database Alongside Existing DB
Apr 17, 2015I need to recover some data in a table but i'm not 100% sure the right way to do this safely.
I'll need to query the two tables to compare the before and after but how do i go about restoring/attaching the backup database to SQL without causing conflicts?
If I restore, I assume this would just overwrite which is obviously the worst thing that can happen. if i attach the backup, how does this affect the current live DB? how do i make sure that it's not getting accessed and mistaken for the live DB?

SQL Server 2008 :: How To Delete Tables In Database Whose Table Names Match A Criteria
Jul 22, 2015The 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?
SQL Server 2008 :: How To Improve Speed Of Initial Query Vice Subsequent Queries
Apr 23, 2015I have a pretty large DB and a fairly complex query. If I drop buffers and clear cache the query runs in 20 seconds returning 25K rows. Subsequent runs are 2 seconds. Is this the result of the results being cached, execution being cached, other? Are there good ways to close the gap between the initial and later runs? Does the cache stay present until the service restarts or does SQL recycle the memory and if so, based on what criteria?

SQL Server 2008 :: SSRS - How To Detect When A Subscription Is Running Or Not
Oct 3, 2015i just kicked off a job that starts a data driven subscription that generates ~200 excel spreadsheets.
I kind of expected them to appear in the execution log, and that the TimeEnd would reflect when they complete.
instead, it appears that the TimeEnd is when the SQLcommand finished executing, ie, a few milliseconds after the start.
it does not reflect when the report finishes completing; if i run sp_whoisactive, i see a stack of reports at a time clawing their way through the process. (ie i see calls to [CreateChunkStatement] and all the other steps a report kicks off.
Other than watching execution requests, how can i know if anything is running as far as subscriptions go?

SQL Server 2008 :: Running WinSCP In SSIS Task / Bat File
Apr 29, 2015I'm trying to call WinSCP in a SSIS Execute Process Task using a .bat file to automate. SSIS is returning a generic failure error message ("Error: 0xC0029151 at Execute Process Task, Execute Process Task: In Executing "MyServerC$Program Files (x86)WinSCPWinSCP.exe" "-script=MyNASShareWinSCPFTP.bat " at "", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0"."). So now I'm trying to run the .bat file by itself. Unfortunately, the command prompt rushes by so fast that I can't see what the server is doing.
I can't find anything on the WinSCP site that indicates how to slow down the .bat file processing or log the remote server responses. I do see how to use the /log switch when using the interactive command line console, but that's not what I want to do.

Aug 6, 2015I have a balance sheet report developed and working. What I need to do is add the ability to click (or double-click) on a number and have a separate report (drill-down) open with the detail that makes up that number. I've researched drill-through reports, sub reports, etc. but can't find a way to do what I want.
I'm now thinking that I need to add custom code in the report properties, code window to do this. I'm hoping that there is a VB method I can use to call this report and pass a parameter. Pseudo-code for this function would look something like this: RunReport("DrillDownReport", "Parameter").
This seems like it should be pretty easy but I don't know what the function is in VB for running an SSRS report (if there is one).
Is this possible or am I barking up the wrong code tree?

How Do I Reference A Table In One Database From A SQL Script Running In Another Database?
Jan 5, 2007I am construvcting a number of databases, some of which containsensitive data and most of which do not. I am attempting to handle thesecurity issues involved in protecting sensitive data in part byputting it in its own database. If the sensitive data is in a databasecalled d_SensitiveData, and in that database there is a table called't_A' (I know, not very informative, but this is only a triviallysimple example :-), and I have a script running in a database'NotSensitiveData' (i.e. there is a statement at the beginning of thescript "USE NotSensitiveData"), how do I referenece the primary key intable 'A'?I tried a variety of things like:ALTER TABLE t_nsXADD CONSTRAINT FK_PersonID FOREIGN KEY (p_idPerson)REFERENCES SensitiveData.t_A (p_idPerson);The above is, in fact, my latest attempt. Everything I tried hasfailed precisely at the point where I specify a table in a differentdatabase. So what is the trick to refering to a table in one databasewhen using another database?This will be used in a ASP.NET v3 application where one of the things Iwant to do is have the authentication provider be a different databasefrom the one used for the main application data.Does anyone know of an example I can download from the web that doesthe same sort of thing I want to try, with some discussion of securityissues involved (i.e. what I can do to harden the application and dataserver)?NB: I am an application developer, not a DBA nor a systemadministrator.ThanksTed
