I think there has to be a way to do this but I'm not seeing it.
I would like to set the names of my primary keys in the CREATE TABLE statements. I like this for documentation so it's very clear what the PK name is. When the system generates the key names, it always add the number suffix at the end. I would need to do this both when the PK is a single column and when it is multiple columsn (see examples below).
Thanks very much for your assistance.

I'm trying to get a SQL 7 and 6.5 DB to interact, but while there is no problem in SQL7, I cannot create a table called "Public" or a field called "Primary"!! Does anyone know why this might be and if so where I might get a list of any other "invalid" names??
Ok, I'm really new at this, but I am looking for a way to automatically insert new records into tables. I have one primary table with a primary key id that is automatically generated on insert and 3 other tables that have foreign keys pointing to the primary key. Is there a way to automatically create new records in the foreign tables that will have the new id? Would this be a job for a trigger, stored procedure? I admit I haven't studied up on those yet--I am learning things as I need them. Thanks.
I use the following 3 sets of sql code in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to import the csv data/files to 3 dbo.Tables via CREATE TABLE & BUKL INSERT operations:

ProjectName nvarchar(25),
LabName nvarchar(25)
);
BULK INSERT dbo.Projects

ROWTERMINATOR = ''
)
GO ======================================= -- ImportCSVsamples.sql --
USE ChemDatabase

ProjectID int
);
BULK INSERT dbo.Samples
FROM 'c:myfileSamples.csv'

======================================== The 3 csv files were successfully imported into the ChemDatabase of my SSMSE.
2 questions to ask: (1) How can I designate the Primary and Foreign Keys to these 3 dbo Tables? Should I do this "designate" thing after the 3 dbo Tables are done or during the "Importing" period? (2) How can I set up the relationships among these 3 dbo Tables?
I desire to have a clustered index on a column other than the Primary Key. I have a few junction tables that I may want to alter, create table, or ...
I have practiced with an example table that is not really a junction table. It is just a table I decided to use for practice. When I execute the script, it seems to do everything I expect. For instance, there are not any constraints but there are indexes. The PK is the correct column.

With the last table being created below, it has a clustered primary key.One of the fields it is referencing on the previous table, courseId, can NOT be unique.But without it being unique, the cluster primary key won't work.Is there another way to achieve what I am trying to do here?CREATE TABLE dbo.courseScores ( courseId varchar(20) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT FK_courseId_courseStructure2 FOREIGN KEY (courseId) REFERENCES courseStructure (courseId), studentId varchar(20) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT FK_studentId_students2 FOREIGN KEY (studentId) REFERENCES students (studentId), CONSTRAINT PK_courseScore PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (courseId, studentId) )
I have an access table that has a primary key (entitled "ID Number"), no duplicates, the field is an integer.And, importantly, the value is set to "increment".The format is "phd"000 - so it starts out phd001, phd002, and so on...How to do this in an SQL table? Can that format be done? Or is it better not to do it via SQL but in coding instead?
Hi, I'm in the midst of an Access 2003 to SQL server 2000 upsizing project and have come across a table on Sql Server that has a field that looks like it's supposed to be the PK but it contains duplicates. What I'd like to do is to have a cursor start at the first value and increment the next value by 1. Could someone explain how I'd go about this?
I would like to get the primary key values in a DML CREATE TRIGGER as follows: CustomerID = 12 AND InvoiceID = 50 I create the DML trigger for UPDATE and DELETE only, how do I retrieve the values as above ? Jon Galloway provided a sample in http://weblogs.asp.net/jgalloway/archive/2008/01.aspx but the Primary Key Field and Primary Key Value were inserted into separate columns while I need to combine the Primary Key Field and Primary Key Value into 1 single field, using his example, I want to form the primary key as: ScoreId = 423 ScoreId = 3064 etc. Note that his example only show a single primary key in a table whereas I need to handle multiple primary keys in a table.
I have two practice tables I have created and want to export the values of one into the source table. I want to know if I can export into a table and have the destination table automatically give a primary key value to a record? I haven't been able to figure this out even after fiddling with the "Enable identity insert" checkbox under the Column Mappings tab. I have created source tables with and without primary keys and neither works because of the fact that I need to have a value for a primary key in order to INSERT into the destination.
Do I have to copy the source records into a staging table and assign the PK values myself by hand? This can't be the answer.
This is for SQL2k5. The database may be small or big, I don't know (it's going out to multiple customers). I'm wondering if in general it's considered "better" to create a single non-primary default filegroup and put all the objects there, or just leave everything in primary? In one training years back I got the impression that recovering the primary filegroup was important for certain restore operations, so it was always wise to separate them like this.
I have a table with plant types and plant names. Certain plants are grouped on a custom field, currently called Field. I am trying to create a query that will give me a result set containing the primary order on Type, but need items with the same 'Field' value grouped by each other.For example, the following shows a standard query result with "order by Type", ie select * from plants order by Type
Code: ID Type Name Field 1 Type1Name1(group1) 2 Type2Name2(group2) -group2 3 Type3Name3(group3) 4 Type4Name4(group4) 5 Type5Name5(group2) -group2 6 Type6Name6(group6)
But I want it to look like this, with fields of the same value located next to each other in the result set (but still initially ordered by Type)
ReportModel is created ,there is only a named query in DSV ,it has a few tables in it(The relationship are inner joins and outer joins).
The question is how could I create a unique logical primary key to identify each unique row in the named query dataset, and also you cannt generate a model unless the named query has a logical primary key . how can I solve this problem,any help?
I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?

I have a text file which needs to be created into a table (let's call it DataFile table). For now I'm just doing the manual DTS to import the txt into SQL server to create the table, which works. But here's my problem....
I need to extract data from DataFile table, here's my query:
select * from dbo.DataFile where DF_SC_Case_Nbr not like '0000%';
Then I need to create a new table for the extracted data, let's call it ExtractedDataFile. But I don't know how to create a new table and insert the data I selected above into the new one.
Also, can the extraction and the creation of new table be done in just one stored procedure? or is there any other way of doing all this (including the importation of the text file)?

Hi i have set up two very simple tables, I want a user to be able to create a basic account ( data stored in User_Profile table with Id set as the Primery Key as Identity) I want the user to be able to be able to return to their account at a later date and then post multiple reviews of different bands they have seen at a later date. I kept the tables in my example very simple so I could get my head around the concept, but generally, I want to connect the Id (PK) value in User_Profile table to the User_Id filed in the User_Review table, so every review that user writes, will be connected directly to their Id.
Any help you could give would be fantastic a i have no idea where to start!!!
User_Profile
Id int, ( as primary Identity Key)
Name
City
Country
I have a second table called User Reviews
User_Revews
Revew_Id int , ( as primary Identity Key)
User_Id int, ( I want this to contain the Id value in the User profile Table)
