SQL Tools :: Adding Column To A Table Causes Copying Data Into Temp Table
Sep 23, 2015
If on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
I have the following tablestblGroupsGroupID intGroupName nvarchar(50)tblGroupMembersGroupID int (FK)UserID intI need a stored proc which:returns the groupID and name of all the groups of which userid 5 is a member AND also return the number of members that a group has (so the numbers of records in tblGroupMembers with a specific groupID)I have 2 sp's:myspGetGroupMembersCount which takes as input a groupID and has as output an integer valuemyspGetGroupsforUser which must return the entire resultsetSo say that userID 5 is a member of GroupID 6,18 and 22the following must be the resultset:UserID GroupID GroupName Members5 6 bla 132 5 18 yes 17 5 22 whatever 200 I think I need to call myspGetGroupMembersCount from within myspGetGroupsforUser and add it to the resultset (I dont want to work with a temptable)...but I dont know how...
For some reason in Enterprise Manager for SQL Server 2000, I cannotput the following line into a trigger:select * into #deleted from deletedWhen I hit the Apply button I get the following error:Cannot use text, ntext, or image columns in the 'inserted' or'deleted' tablesThis seems like a weird error, since I am not actually doing anythingto the inserted or deleted tables, I am just trying to make a tempcopy.I have another workaround but I am just curious why this happens.Thanks,Rebecca
I have a real table with an identity column and a trigger to populate this column.
I need to import / massage data for data loads from a different format, so I have a temp table defined that contains only the columns that are represented in the data file so I can bulk insert.
I then alter this table to add all the other columns so that it reflects all the columns in the real table. I then populate all the values so that this contains the data I need.
I then want to insert into the real table pushing the data from the temp table, however this gives me errors stating that the query returned multiple rows.
I specified all the columns in the insert grouping as well as on the select from the temp table.
ANY thoughts / comments are appreciated. This is beginning to drive me nuts.
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 am trying to insert a single row in Temp table #InventoryItems . The temp table is mentioned in a curosor childcur_inventory. While looping through the cursor I have mentioned nested if else condition . In the Else condition where I have mentioned PRINT "Hello World" I want to insert a single row in the temp #InventoryItems. I trying to use Select Top 1 but the cursor is looping indefinitely trying to insert multiple record
I want to insert only one record with null values.
DECLARE childcur_inventory CURSOR FOR SELECT Structure_Number, State, Neighbor_State, Border_Bridge_Structure_Number FROM #InventoryItems OPEN childcur_inventory FETCH childcur_inventory INTO @Structure_Number, @State, @Neighbour_State, @Border_Bridge_Structure_Number

I need to update a table by copying a column from another table(having the samestructure, but on another database), from the record having the sameprimary key.1 - What is the correct query?2 - I tried copying them record by record, but the datatype is ntext,(it displays <longtext> in the result pane), and trying to update it results in thefollowing errormessage:The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery oraggregateexpression.I tried variations of the following:UPDATE TABLESET column0 = (SELECTcolumn0FROManotherDB.dbo.TABLEWHEREanotherDB.dbo.TABLE.column1 = column1)WHEREanotherDB.dbo.TABLE.column1 = column1
i have 2 tables (both containing the same column names/datatypes), say table1 and table2.. table1 is the most recent, but some rows were deleted on accident.. table2 was a backup that has all the data we need, but some of it is old, so what i want to do is overwrrite the rows in table 2 that also exist in table 1 with the table 1 rows, but the rows in table 2 that do not exist in table one, leave those as is.. both tables have a primary key, user_id.
Probabaly a silly question yet as a DOTNET developer, I'm trying to simulate DTS when for example, I don't have permission to perform DTS on a production server.
In particular and interested regards caching of rows before the service decides to flush the buffer and write to the target table. Safe to assume DTS is cursor based?
I need to copy the following columns from my Employee table in my Performance DB to my Employee table in my VacationRequest DB: CompanyID, FacilityID, EmployeeID, FirstName, LastName, [Password] = 'nippert', Role = 'Employee' I tried the advice on this website but to no avail:http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_select_into.asp
select * into dbo.ashutosh from attribute where 1=2
"USE WHERE 1=2 TO AVOID COPYING OF DATA"
//HERE "ASHUTOSH" IS THE NEW TABLE NAME AND "ATTRIBUTE" IS THE TABLE WHOSE REFERENCE IS USED// //the logic is to use where clause with 1=2 which will never be true and hence it will not return any row//
I have "inherited" a project working on a SQL 2000 database. The project calculates commissions based on data from an invoice header table and an invoice details table. The goal is to extract data from the primary database tables, perform limited manipulations, and store the resultant data into a table in a different database for reference and reporting. I have the query complete that extracts and manipulates the data, but I am stuck in trying to add this data to the final storage/reporting table. I would also like to do error checking to be certain that a record is not "re-inserted" from the source data to the destination table. Thanks in advance, Barry
I want to insert the data from temp table to other table. Only condition is, it needs to sorted based on tool number and tool date. For example if we have ten records for tool number 1000, it should be order by tool number and then based on tool_dt. Both tables doesn't have any primary keys. Please find below my code. I removed all the unnecessary columns for simple understanding. INSERT INTO tool_summary (tool_nbr, tool_dt) select tool_nbr, tool_dt from #tool order by tool_nbr, tool_dt...But this query is not working as expected. Data is getting shuffled.
WE have a job that loads data from an Oralce DB into our SQL Server 2000 DB twice a day. The schedule has just changed so that now there is a possibility of having my west coast users impacted when it runs at 5 PM PST and my east coast users impacted when it runs at 7 AM EST. As a workaround, I have developed a DTS package that loads the data into temp tables instead of the real tables. IE. Oracle -> XTable_temp instead of Oracle -> XTable. The load sometimes takes about an hour to an hour and a half to load, so this solution works great, but I want to then lock the table, delete it and rename the temp table to table X. The pseudo code would be:
Begin Transaction
Lock Table XTable
Drop XTable
Alter Table XTable_temp rename to XTable
Release Lock XTable
End Transaction
Create XTable_temp
I see two issues with this solution. 1) I think if I can lock XTable that the lock would be released when the table is dropped and the XTable_temp was being renamed. 2) I can't find a command to rename a table.
I need to copy a column which contains a list of integers to a new column. Can someone please tell me how I can do this using a query statement? Thanks in advance.
There are several easy ways to accomplish what I am trying to do in a simpler way however (long story short) this is something I need to learn for a much larger task in the near future. O.K. I have a table named clients I'm trying to get started copying columns from the same table one by one. Lets say original table has these columns: Database kokomain -- table dbo.clients ID(pk) fname lname idate
I've created a blank temp table with the exact same schema and named it 'temp'. I've populated the id,fname and lname fields with the statement: Insert Into kokomain.dbo.temp (cid,fname,lname) select c.cid,c.fname,c.lname from kokomain.dbo.clients c
Now, how could I add the idate field to the table as a separate query? I've tried several variations of things like... INSERT INTO kokomain.dbo.temp (idate) select c.idate from kokomain.dbo.clients c where c.idate in (select idate from kokomain.dbo.temp) No dice.
The correct statement would be greatly appreciated Thanks.
Hi everyone, I'm fairly new to sql and right now I am struggling with a script. I am trying to extract data from a normal table into a temporary table, update it in the temporary table, then put it back into the normal table. I'll display my code, let me know what you think, any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks a lot.
I am trying to update a table in one database with data from a temporary table which i created in the tempdb.
I want to update field1 in the table with the tempfield1 from the #temp_table
The code looks something like this:
Use master UPDATE [dbname].dbo.table SET [dbname].dbo.table.field1 = [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield1 WHERE ( [dbname].dbo.table.field2= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield2 AND [dbname].dbo.table.field3= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield3 AND [dbname].dbo.table.field4= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield4)
I get the following error: Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield2" could not be bound. Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield3" could not be bound. Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield4" could not be bound.
I'm having difficulty bulk-copying a data file, using a format file, into a SQLServer 6.5 table with an identity column. The data file is tab-delimited, and does not include the identity column (I want it to be automatically generated).
When I execute the following:
bcp DB1.dbo.WORK_TABLE in WorkTable.txt -Usa -P -fWorkTable.fmt -SSERVERX'
I receive this message:
Starting copy... BCP copy in failed
I've had no problems loading a similar table without the identity column.
Can anybody help? Here is the table definition & bcp format:
I created a temp table in my stored procedure and then added a new identity column to it. However, I am not able to use this new column immediately, it says column not found. SELECT * INTO #temp FROM table_name ALTER TABLE #temp ADD __Identity int IDENTITY(1,1) SELECT * FROM #temp WHERE __Identity >= 10 Here __Identity column is not found. If I just did SELECT * FROM #temp without the where clause, the final result does have the __Identity column correctly added to the table. Why can't I query it? Thanks!
I am trying to create a temp table with an identity column. Here is the code that I am using...
SELECT UserId, IDENTITY(int, 1, 1) AS colId INTO #User FROM MyUserTable WHERE UserId = 1
I am getting an error though.
Server: Msg 8108, Level 16, State 1, Line 9 Cannot add identity column, using the SELECT INTO statement, to table '#User', which already has column 'UserId' that inherits the identity property.
