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 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?

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.
There is a column for Name with data type varchar 50 the input data is like Alok Kumar, Sunita kuamri, Rohit Gupta Like that. The column contains the data as Combination of First name and second name.I would like to write a select query for selecting first part of name like Alok, Sunit, Rohit and so on only, ignoring the second part of name.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to start encrypting several fields in a database and have been doing some testing with a test database first. I've run into problems when attempting to restore the database on either the same server (but different database) or to a separate server.
First, here's how i created the symmetric key and encrypted data in the original database:
create master key
encryption by password = 'testAppleA3';
create certificate test
with subject = 'test certificate',
EXPIRY_DATE = '1/1/2010';
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
open symmetric key sk_Test decryption by certificate test;
insert into employees values (101,'Jane Doe',encryptbykey(key_guid('sk_Test'),'$200000'));
insert into employees values(102,'Bob Jones',encryptbykey(key_guid('sk_Test'),'$500000'));
select * from employees
--delete from employees
select id,name,cast(decryptbykey(salary) as varchar(10)) as salary from employees
close all symmetric keys
Next I backup up this test database and restore it to a new database on a different server (same issue if restore to different database but on same server).
Then if i attempt to open the key in the new database and decrypt:
open symmetric key sk_Test decryption by certificate test;
I get the error: An error occurred during decryption.
Ok, well not unexpected, so reading the forums, i try doing the below first in the new database:
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY
Then I try opening the key again and get the error again:
An error occurred during decryption.
So then it occurs to me, maybe i need to drop and recreate it so i do
drop symmetric key sk_test
then
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
and then try to open it.
Same error!
So then i decide, let's drop everything, the master key, the certificate and then symmetric key:
drop symmetric key sk_test
drop certificate test
drop master key
Then recreate the master key:
create master key
encryption by password = 'testAppleA3';
Restore the certificate from a backup i had made to a file:
CREATE CERTIFICATE test
FROM FILE = 'c:storedcertsencryptiontestcert'
Recreate the symmetric key again:
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
And now open the key only to get the error:
Cannot decrypt or encrypt using the specified certificate, either because it has no private key or because the password provided for the private key is incorrect.
So what am I doing wrong here? In this scenario I would appear to have lost all access to decrypt the data in the database despite restoring from a backup which restored the symmetric key and certificate and i obviously know the password for the master key.
I also tried running the command
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY
again but this does not resolve the issue.
Thx.
Can I safely use top n select/delete in a while loop? For example:
declare @FieldVal int
while (select count(*) from @MyTempTable) > 0
begin
select top 1 @FieldVal = FieldVal from @MyTempTable
-- process @FieldVal then delete the row
delete top 1 from @MyTempTable
end
I like the simplicity of the above approach as long as it's reliable and there aren't any gotchas that I may not be aware of.

I have the linked server connection created and works perfectly well. I mean I am able to see the tables while I am on my database.
how do I write a SQL statement to reference the linked server ?
I tried the following:
Select top 100 * from casmpogdbspr1.MPOG_Collations.dbo.AsaClass_Cleaned
Then I get the error message....
Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "casmpogdbspr1" does not contain the table ""MPOG_Collations"."dbo"."AsaClass_Cleaned"". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.
A simple Query to select alternate rows from a table ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have results that are XML data and I am trying to figure out how to parse the data to select certain values from the xml.

Not really sure where to start. Table is GAME, and column is XMLDATA.
I have this sql....
Select
DISTINCT p.dbPatID, p.dbpatfirstname, p.dbPatLastName,
s.dbSchTypeCnt as SchDetailType, t.dbSchTypeCnt as SchTypeType,
ISNULL(r.dbStatusDesc, 'No Ref') AS dbStatusDesc,
ISNULL(t.dbSchTypeCode, 'No Ref') AS dbSchTypeCode,
ISNULL(t.dbSchTypeDesc, 'No Ref') AS dbSchTypeDesc,

however, I only want the lastest a.dbPatApptTime and only when a.dbPFStatus = 1 and a.ClientRef = 'EPS'
So the stand alone sql could be....
Select Top(1) dbPatApptTime as LastVisitDate, dbSchTypeDesc as LastVisitDesc
from appointments
where dbPFStatus = 1 and clientref = 'EPS'
order by dbPatApptTime desc
I'm just not sure how to incorporate that into my sql or whether there is a better way,
The below would work if all of the values in A.Value were numbers but they are not. So I need to restrict the view to only look at the following measures but still show all the other row.

SELECT
M.[Description]
,A.*
,M.Threshold

Is there any way that I can create a select statement in the case when to only look for them measures that I know contain numbers?
I need to investigate about what happened to our production server at the last weekend.i restored it to another server which is development. I restored it under a name "old_master_2015_07_10".
But if I run a query
SELECT *
FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers]
it actually selects from master.sys.servers, not from my old_master... In order to prove it, I created a linked server in this, development server, and if I run SELECT * FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers], it selects it. And in database selection drop-down box I also selected old_ master_ 2015_07_10. What I think it apparently recognizes familiar names like sys.servers and redirects the query to the master.
What I can do to select really from old_master_2015_07_10 database? I already thought about renaming sys.servers to something different, but did not do it not to break something in master in case if SQL Server will run it in master as well.
We have a database where the nvarchar columns currently holding English only data. It keeps the training information. Currently the default collation is Latin Case insensitive accent insensitive.
Now we are planning to allow multiple language support. When we go for it, we will upload the data from different languages. Based on user preferences, he/she should be able to query the data (One language at a time).
I am worried on how the existing queries will work if I load all language data in the same database.
For example, some characters in English are used in Norwegian too. But they have different sort order. ALso LIKE conditions too may fail.
So far I thought of few solutions: Add the Collation information along with select , order by clauses. It means we need to add more procedures (one set per collation) The other option is to create new database for each language. Each will have its own collation. The dowside is we need more databases which may lead to more servers and more maintenance work.
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value
----------- -----
colB 123
colA XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly..Below is what I have:
CREATE TABLE myTable (colA VARCHAR(3), colB VARCHAR(3), colC VARCHAR(3))

I 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.
I'm working on a query in which I need to get few nodes values from the XML data by using the value from SQL column (MessageContentType) in this query. I'm able to get the nodes value when i hard code the value in the query but the problem is MessageContentType will vary from some records in the table, due to that I'm not getting the corresponding node values. I have tried few ways to get this value dynamically but I'm missing something.
Sample Table Data
MessageContentType | BodySegment
xx:ADT_A03_26_GLO_DEF | <ns0:ADT_A03_26_GLO_DEF xmlns:ns0="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X">.....

ID,MsgContentType
BODYSEGMENT,

When i tried the below line of script, I'm getting this error "[color=#FF0000]The argument 1 of the XMLdata type method "value" must be a string literal.[/color]"
Concat MsgContentType Column
BODYSEGMENT.value('declare namespace xx="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X"; /'+MsgContentType+'[1]/EVN_EventType[1]/EVN_2_RecordedDateTime[1]','varchar(300)') AS TimeSpan
To overcome that error i used sql column but I'm getting this error [color=#FF0000]XQuery [S.bodysegment.value()]: Syntax error near '[', expected a "node test"[/color].
BODYSEGMENT.value('declare namespace xx="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X"; /[sql:column("MsgContentType")][1]/EVN_EventType[1]/EVN_2_RecordedDateTime[1]','varchar(300)') AS TimeSpan
I tried this line of script, i didn't get any error by timespan is coming as null, I do hope this script not pointing the correct node to traverse the sibling node.
BODYSEGMENT.value('declare namespace xx="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X"; /*[local-name()=sql:column("MsgContentType")][1]/EVN_EventType[1]/EVN_2_RecordedDateTime[1]','varchar(300)') AS TimeSpan
I have a table like the following (with much more data, but the concept is the same) with Dates and Actions for People and a column called Action with beginning Dates and end dates.
(I attached a picture because I could not figure out how to Format it)
begin Date end Date Name

begin 2014-09-18 end 2014-09-30 phil
begin 2014-08-21 end 2014-08-23 John
I need the query to be like this. The idea is to have the query grab the next 'END' not all Ends, which my attempts have done i.e. I get not just the closest end to the begin date, but ALL Ends with the same Person.
I Need it to look like this:
begin Date end Date Name
begin 2014-10-15 end 2014-10-31 phil
begin 2014-09-18 end 2014-09-30 phil
begin 2014-08-21 end 2014-08-23 John
There can be different People so the query Needs to return the beginning and end rows for the Person in sequential order.I can't figure out how to select only the 'next' end. My query always gets 'end' values that have a 'begin'. I
I have a table like this :

That means, only select Level=H, and display the last record of H with concatenated the description of each rows delimited with comma.

But I expect to get the structure like, care_nbr, cust_nbr,legal_name, address_type=physical address, addr_line_1, addr_line_2, address_type-primary address, ddr_line_1, addr_line_2. That means I only need primary and physical address, and expect them to show in a row to each care_nbr. How to perform that?
CARE_Nbr||Cust_Nbr||Legal_Name||||||| Address_Tpye |||Addr_Line_1 ||||||||||||||||Addr_Line_2
99000001||004554||Mac Marketing, LLC||Billing Address||210 Parktowne Blvd Ste. 1||NULL

have a Prod Server A having TDE enabled on 2 of those databases. I have a Prod Server B having TDE enabled on 3 of those databases. Now I have to create a single Dev server Server C for all the above 5 databases residing on the two servers. So how can I restore all the 5 database backup files on server C.
Does it mean that I need to copy the certificates and Keys from both the Prod server to this Dev Box and then restore the backup files. Once done, I can enable the encryption ON on those 5 database on Dev box or is there any different approach.Also how will tempdb behave in this scenario.
I have idea on SMK, DMK and symmetric and asymmetric keys. I have also idea on TDE. But Is there any way to encrypt all the records of all the columns of a table in a database? actually I need to encrypt the database. Someone .... thinks that when someone will write select query he will get the encrypted records. As per as I am concerned it is not possible. I can encrypt the specific column using symmetric or other keys...
Is there any software or any tool which will provide encrypted records of database?

consult books online for the schema requirements
I followed the blog line by line. i have closed down my project and created a new test package, new project, still the same error. Its there a property somewhere that needs to be configured to allow package configuration to use encryption with sqlserver? I'm running sql 2005 w/sp2. Its there a hotfix that i'm missing. i have not been able to google an answer.
I have been able to successfully use sqlserver as my package configuration. I wanted to see if i could use the encryption code posted on the blog above. i have seen folks reference it or point other folks to it to use for encypting sqlserver package configurations, i just wondered if they have had the same problem.

I have created a FTP task in SSIS to upload file to the server. Due to some policy issues we do not have the actual password with us. we have been provided with a encrypted password. Hence I am not able to connect to the server through the FTP task connection manager.

Hi all,
I am developing an application for a big office which uses SQL Server 2000.
Apart from my database, on that server, there are two databases by other companies.
The administrator also has access to server but the client only wants him to backup the database.
I have two questions:
1) First of all (if it is possible) I would like to protect my own database from the other companies.
I don't want them to:
see the data in the tables (around 20 tables)
make changes to the stored procedures (more than 100 stored procedures)
be able to backup the database
2) The client will save sensitive data to the database (mainly currency amounts, salaries etc) which he wants to keep hidden.
I am using float type for these fields and I would like to make the data encrypted. I could do it for nvarchar fields but changing these float to nvarchar would be time consuming.
Thanks for your patience reading this!
Would really appreciate some help on any of these

There are a few features in the new SQL Server - Reporting Services that I really need in production. I have tested everything and it works great. I am running the CTP version since Microsoft is saying they aren't releasing the release version until 3rd quarter 2008.
Since Microsoft won't sell SQL 2008 until 3rd quarter, can I run the CTP in production until the release and then purchase SQL 2008?

Hello - does anyone have experience w/SQL Server 2005 in a virtual environment? I'm considering this for a production environment but not sure if performance will suffer. Our databases will have a lot of writing but not too much reading. A SSRS solution is currently the only app. connecting to the SQL db. Max users to server at any given time will be very low (~10 users max). But the databases are pulling in data from other, outside multiple data sources on a daily basis.
Any pointers to documentation or any advice?
Thanks,
