Simple Question - Use 1 Or 2 Tables

May 9, 2007

If I have a table called 'areas' as below which i'm using in a web app:

Code:


area_id mediumint(9) NO PRI auto_increment
name varchar(45) NO
postcode char(4) NO
o4s_coords varchar(15) YES
gm_coords varchar(200) YES
description text NO YES
filename varchar(30) YES
width smallint(4) YES
height smallint(4) YES
comment varchar(255) YES


This table is not going to ever hold more than 600 records. About 550 will only use the first 3 fields (area_id,name,postcode). Is it advisable to break this into 2 separate tables or given the small amount of content is it ok with some null fields?

it seems like an easy query here. I have 3 tables:

Forums (ID. ForumTitle)

Help With Simple Query Involving 3 Tables

Jan 8, 2005

Hello, this is probably the most helpful forum I have found on the Net in awhile and you all helped me create a DB for my application and I have gotten kind of far since then; creating stored procedure and so forth. This is probably very simple but I do not yet know the SQL language in depth to figure this problem out. Basically I have a printer monitor application that logs data about who is printing (via logging into my app with a passcode, which is located in the SQL DB), what printer they are using, and the number of pages. I have 3 tables, one called 'jobs' which acts like a log of each print-job, a user table (which has data like Name=HR, Passcode=0150) and table listing the printers. Each table uses an integer ID field which is used for referencing and so forth. Tables were created with this command sequence:

create table [User_Tbl](
[ID] int IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
[Name] varchar(100),
[Password] varchar(100),
)
go

create table [Printer_Tbl(
[ID] int IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
[Name] varchar(100),
[PaperCost] int
)
go

create table jobs(
[JobID] int IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY.
[User_ID] int,
Printer_ID int,
JobDateTime datetime,
NumberPrintedPages int,
CONSTRAINT FK_User_Tbl FOREIGN KEY ([User_ID])
REFERENCES [User_Tbl]([ID]),
CONSTRAINT FK_Printer_Tbl FOREIGN KEY ([Printer_ID])
REFERENCES Printer_Tbl([ID])
)
go


I need display some data in a datagrid (or whatever way I present it) by using a query. I can do simple things and have used a query someone on here suggested for using JOINS, and I understand but I can't figure out how to make this particular query. The most necessary query I need for my report needs to look like this: (this will be from a data range @MinDate - @MaxDate)

Username PagesOnPrinter1 PagesOnPrinter2 TotalPagesPrinted Cost
--------- ---------------- --------------- ---------------- ----
HR 5 7 12 .84
Finance 10 15 25 1.75


So it gives the username, how many pages printed on each printer, the total pages printed, and the total cost (each printer has a specific paper cost, so it is like adding the sum of the costs on each printer). This seems rather simple, but I cannot figure out how to translate this to SQL.

One caveat I have is that the number of printers is dynamic, so that means the the columns are not really static. Can this be done? And if so how can I go about it? Thanks everyone!

Simple Data Extraction From 2 Tables

Mar 22, 2007

So these are a couple different interpretations I've made of a statement that needs to return students name's with the OSOS field in the attendcode code column of the attendance table on todays date with an attendance.aperiod column equal to 4.


This first one returns no results at all when I should get about 7 rows or so.....

Select Student.name,
attendance.studentid,
attendance.attenddate,
attendance.aperiod,
attendance.attendcode
from Attendance, Student
where AttendDate >= DateAdd(Day, DateDiff(Day, 0, GetDate()), 0)
And AttendDate < DateAdd(Day, DateDiff(Day, 0, GetDate()), 0) + 1
And aperiod = '4'
And AttendCode = 'OSOS'
AND student.name = Attendance.studentid

This one is returning all of the names in the database 6 times each.

Select Student.name,
attendance.studentid,
attendance.attenddate,
attendance.aperiod,
attendance.attendcode
from Attendance, Student
where AttendDate >= DateAdd(Day, DateDiff(Day, 0, GetDate()), 0)
And AttendDate < DateAdd(Day, DateDiff(Day, 0, GetDate()), 0) + 1
And aperiod = '4'
And AttendCode = 'OSOS' order by name

I think something is messed up with my WHERE control but I cant figure it out... Any help is greatly appreciated!

Should Be A Simple Question About Related Tables In A Report.

Jun 18, 2007

Experienced memebers,



I have what should be simple question about related tables in a dataset and using those fields in a report. Here is my simple design.



Order Header -> Line Item -> Line Discount -> Discount Table



Now when designing this report I cannot seem to access the related discount records for the line item. (as more than one can be applied) Every time I try to drag an field from one of the tables in the dataset to my report it automatically adds "First()" onto the field value expression. This seems to work fine for the order header, but doen't even come close to getting the right discount on the line item? I basically need to pass through the Line Discount table to get to the discount name field to put on the same line as my line item data on the report.



I have looked and googled for for an example on this, but have come up short. Can anyone point me in the right direction?



Thanks,



Chris

Simple Join Not So Simple

Feb 21, 2007

I am receiving funny results from a query. To simplify, I have 2 tables (todayyesterday). Each tbl has the same 8 columns. My query joins the two tables then looks where either of two columns has changed. What is happening is that when checking one of the columns it seems as though sql is flipping the column, causing it to be returned in error.

result set

colA colB colC colD colE colF colG colG (from yesterday)
1 1 a b c d e m
1 1 a b c d m e

So what's happening is that the record above is actually the same record and should not be returned. There is a daily pmt column that changes but I am not using that in the query. Aside from that the two records are identicle.

Any help is appreciated.

Simple Join Not So Simple

Aug 19, 2006

Hi,

I have the following situation (with a site that already works and i cannot modify the database architecture and following CrossRef tables -- you will see what i mean by CrossRef tables below)

I have:


Master table Hotel

table AddressCrossRef (with: RefID = Hotel.ID, RefType = 'Hotel', AddrID)
joins
table Address (key = AddrID)


table MediaCrossRef (with RefID = Hotel.ID, RefType= 'Hotel', MediaID)
joins
table Media (with MediaID,mediaType = 'thumbnail')


foreach hotel, there definitely is a crossRef entry in AddressCrossRef and Address tables respectively (since every hotel has an address)

however not all hotels have thumbnail image

hence i have hotel inner join AddressXReff inner join Address ..... however i must have
left outer join mediaXref left outer join media


the problem is that if there is no entry in Media or mediaXref, I don't get any results

i tried to get over it by using
where (media.mediaTyple like 'thumbnail' or media.mediaType is null)
but then i started getting multiple results for each hotel because media's of type movie or full_image or etc... all got returned


any clue?

thanks

Why Would Tables Pulled In From ODBC In Access Be Different Than Tables In SQL 2005 Tables?

Jan 24, 2008

I'm new to my company, although not new to SQL 2005 and I found something interesting. I don't have an ERD yet, and so I was asking a co-worker what table some data was in, they told me a table that is NOT in SQL Server 2005's list of tables, views or synonyms.

I thought that was strange, and so I searched over and over again and still I couldn't find it. Then I did a select statement the table that Access thinks exists and SQL Server does not show and to my shock, the select statement pulled in data!

So how did this happen? How can I find the object in SSMS folder listing of tables/views or whatever and what am I overlooking?

Thanks,
Keith

Track The Changes To Normalised Tables And Update The Denormalised Tables Depending On The Changes To Normalised Tables

Dec 7, 2006

We have 20 -30 normalized tables in our dartabase . Also we have 4tables where we store the calculated data fron those normalised tables.The Reason we have these 4 denormalised tables is when we try to dothe calcultion on the fly, our site becomes very slow. So We haveprecalculated and stored it in 4 tables.The Process we use to do the precalcultion, will get do thecalculation and and store it in a temp table. It will compare the thetemp with denormalised tables and insert new rows , delte the old oneans update if any changes.This process take about 20 mins - 60mins. Ittakes long time because in this process we first do the calculationregardless of changes and then do a compare to see what are changed andremove if any rows are deleted, and insert new rowsand update thechanges.Now we like to capture the rows/columns changed in the normalisedtables and do only those chages to the denormalised table , which weare hoping will reduce the processing time by atleast 50%WE have upgraded to SQL SERVER 2005.So We like to use the newtechnology for this process.I have to design the a model to capture the changes and updated onlythose changes.I have the list of normalised tables and te columns which will affectthe end results.I thought of using Triggers or OUTPUT clause to capture the changes.Please help me with the any ideas how to design the new process

Can I Export Tables So That Existing Tables In Destination Database Will Be Modified?

Jul 20, 2005

I'm working on an ASP.Net project where I want to test code on a localmachine using a local database as a back-end, and then export it tothe production machine where it uses the hosting provider's SQL Serverdatabase on the back-end. Is there a way to export tables from oneSQL Server database to another in such a way that if a table alreadyexists in the destination database, it will be updated to reflect thechanges to the local table, without existing data in the destinationtable being lost? e.g. suppose I change some tables in my localdatabase by adding new fields. Can I "export" these changes to thedestination database so that the new fields will be added to thedestination tables (and filled in with default values), without losingdata in the destination tables?If I run the DTS Import/Export Wizard that comes with SQL Server andchoose "Copy table(s) and view(s) from the source database" and choosethe tables I want to copy, there is apparently no option *not* to copythe data, and since I don't want to copy the data, that choice doesn'twork. If instead of "Copy table(s) and view(s) from the sourcedatabase", I choose "Copy objects and data between SQL Serverdatabases", then on the following options I can uncheck the "CopyData" box to prevent data being copied. But for the "CreateDestination Objects" choices, I have to uncheck "Drop destinationobjects first" since I don't want to lose the existing data. But whenI uncheck that and try to do the copy, I get collisions between theproperties of the local table and the existing destination table,e.g.:"Table 'wbuser' already has a primary key defined on it."Is there no way to do what I want using the DTS Import/Export Wizard?Can it be done some other way?-Bennett

Saving Tables That Are Generated By Queries As HTML File Or Sub-tables

Oct 17, 2006

I have a trade data tables (about 10) and I need to retrieve information based on input parameters. Each table has about 3-4 million rows.

The table has columns like Commodity, Unit, Quantity, Value, Month, Country

A typical query I use to select data is "Select top 10 commodity , sum(value), sum(quantity) , column4, column5, column6 from table where month=xx and country=xxxx"

The column4 = (column2)/(total sum of value) and column 5=(column3)/(total sum of quantity). Column6=column5/column4.

It takes about 3-4 minutes for the query to complete and its a lot of time specially since I need to pull this information from a webpage.

I wanted to know if there is an alternate way to pull the data from server ?

I mean can I write a script that creates tables for all the input combinations i.e month x country (12x228) and save them in table (subtable-table) with a naming convention so from the web I can just pull the table with input parameters mapped to name convention and not running any runtime queries on database ??

OR

Can I write a script that creates a html files for each table for all input combinations save them ?

OR

Is there exists any other solution ?

Insert Records From Foxpro Tables To SQL Server Tables

Apr 22, 2004

Hi,

Currently, I'm using the following steps to migrate millions of records from Foxpro tables to SQL Server tables:

1. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then bcp to SQL Server tables in a dummy database. All the SQL tables have the same columns as the Foxpro tables.
2. Manipulate the data in the SQL tables of the dummy database and save the manipulated data into the SQL tables of the real database where the tables may have different structure from the corresponding Foxpro tables.

I only know the following ways to import Foxpro data into SQL Server:

#1. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then bcp to SQL Server tables
#2. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then Bulk Insert to SQL Server tables
#3. DTS Foxpro records directly to SQL Server tables

I'm thinking whether the following choices will be better than the current way:

1st choice: Change step 1 to use #2 instead of #1
2nd choice: Change step 1 to use #3 instead of #1
3rd choice: Use #3 plus manipulating in DTS to replace step 1 and step 2

Thank you for any suggestion.

Temp. Tables / Variables / Process Keyed Tables ?

Feb 22, 2008

I have 3 Checkbox list panels that query the DB for the items. Panel nº 2 and 3 need to know selection on panel nº 1. Panels have multiple item selection. Multiple users may use this at the same time and I wanted to have a full separation between the application and the DB. The ASP.net application always uses Stored Procedures to access the DB. Whats the best course of action? Using a permanent 'temp' table on the SQL server? Accomplish everything on the client side?

Dynamic Tables Names And Temporary Tables Options

Oct 5, 2007

Firstly I consider myself quite an experienced SQL Server user, andamnow using SQL Server 2005 Express for the main backend of mysoftware.My problem is thus: The boss needs to run reports; I have designedthese reports as SQL procedures, to be executed through an ASPapplication. Basic, and even medium sized (10,000+ records) reportingrun at an acceptable speed, but for anything larger, IIS timeouts andquery timeouts often cause problems.I subsequently came up with the idea that I could reduce processingtimes by up to two-thirds by writing information from eachcalculationstage to a number of tables as the reporting procedure runs..ie. stage 1, write to table xxx1,stage 2 reads table xxx1 and writes to table xxx2,stage 3 reads table xxx2 and writes to table xxx3,etc, etc, etcprocedure read final table, and outputs information.This works wonderfully, EXCEPT that two people can't run the samereport at the same time, because as one procedure creates and writesto table xxx2, the other procedure tries to drop the table, or read atable that has already been dropped....Does anyone have any suggestions about how to get around thisproblem?I have thought about generating the table names dynamically using'sp_execute', but the statement I need to run is far too long(apparently there is a maximum length you can pass to it), and evenbreaking it down into sub-procedures is soooooooooooooooo timeconsuming and inefficient having to format statements as strings(replacing quotes and so on)How can I use multiple tables, or indeed process HUGE procedures,withdynamic table names, or temporary tables?All answers/suggestions/questions gratefully received.Thanks

This All Seemed Simple Enough...

Mar 24, 2007

...when I started this endeavor.
I have a previously developed Lotus Notes App. The idea was simple; as
I am sefl taught on Lotus Script, I figured I'd be able to stumble my
way through VB.Well,
it started OK. I used VB Express to get familiar with the stuff, but
decided to go with a full version of VS 2005 and try and get this thing
properly developed as a web app. I purchased several reference books
etc., and have become relatively familiar with the forums here.First
issue I have is that I simply want to use code to update or add records
to an SQL DB. I know about datagridview etc., but I want to update the
DB using forms, not the tabular view those controls provide. I thought
it would be relatively straight forward, but found my ignorance runs
deeper than I thought. When I tried to do so I am finding I am not
really clear on where to make declarations etc. in the web app.  If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great. The
issue with searching these forums is most posts deal with datagridview
or something similar.I have spent a ton of time trying to find relevant
posts or articles, but have had no luck yet.Again, all Ireally
need is a nudge in the right direction. I am more than willing to plod
through reference materials or articles/posts to find what I need to
know, I just can't find where to even start on the info I need. Regards, Joe

Should Be Simple !!!!

Jan 25, 2001

Hi,

I'm relatively new to SQL7 but I did use 6.5 a fair bit.
I'm trying to test the restore of the Transaction log backup and having a bit of difficulty. The idea is that I make a complete database backup at 1am backup the transaction log every 30 minutes between 7am and 7pm. I need to be able to restore the database to a known state between 7am and 7pm with a max data loss of 30 minutes.

What I am trying to achieve is (as a test):

1)Create a small test database with a test table
2)Add some data to the test table
3)Back up the transaction log
4)Restore the transaction log to 'undo' the data added in step 2

Should be simple I think !!! The problem I am encountering is that in step 4 it won't let me restore only the transaction log (a tick automatically appears in the database backup as well). Bah !

Can someone please tell me what simple steps are required to get this to work. I need specifically on what options to chose during the backup and restore processes.

Thankyou,

Tim
