What is the single SQL statement to truncate the blank space on either side of data.
Ex.
Table1 has Name as column.
I have records filled with blank space on both side for Name field.
With one query I want to correct (truncate the leading and trailing space) the data.
How?
SQL Server 2005 SP2.
Thank you,

Hi,I am wondering if anyone has any examples of how to run multiple sql statements from a file using .net? I want to automatically install any stored procedures or scripts from a single file on the server when my web application runs for the first time. Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi,
I have used several sql queris to generate a report. This queries pull out data from different tables. But sometimes at the same table too.
Basically those are SELECT statements.
I have created stored proc for each SELECT statement. now I'm wondering can I include all SELECT statements in one stored proc and run the report.
If possible, can anyone show me the format?
Thanks
I am hoping someone can shed light on this odd behavior I am seeing running a simple UPDATE statement on a table in SQL Server 2000. I have 2 tables - call them Table1 and Table2 for now (among many) that need to have certain columns updated as part of a single transaction process. Each of the tables has many columns. I have purposely limited the target column for updating to only ONE of the columns in trying to isolate the issue. In one case the UPDATE runs fine against Table1... at runtime in code and as a manual query when run in QueryAnalyzer or in the Query window of SSManagementStudio - either way it works fine.
However, when I run the UPDATE statement against Table2 - at runtime I get rowsaffected = 0 which of course forces the code to throw an Exception (logically). When I take out the SQL stmt and run it manually in Query Analyzer, it runs BUT this is the output seen in the results pane...
(0 row(s) affected)
(1 row(s) affected)
How does on get 2 answers for one query like this...I have never seen such behavior and it is a real frustration ... makes no sense. There is only ONE row in the table that contains the key field passed in and it is the same key field value on the other table Table1 where the SQL returns only ONE message (the one you expect)
(1 row(s) affected)
If anyone has any ideas where to look next, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks

Dim update_phase As New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO TE_shounin_zangyou (syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou) SELECT syain_No,date_kyou,time_kyou FROM TE_zangyou WHERE [syain_No] = @syain_No", cnn)

The same table is updated so I think it would be better to have just one update statement. But the problem is that, the first update statement retrieves values from another table, whereas the update values of the second statement is fixed. Is there a way to combine these two statements. I tried to do so but it does not update. Here's my code...
Dim update_phase As New SqlCommand("UPDATE TE_shounin_zangyou SET TE_shounin_zangyou.syain_No=TE_zangyou.syain_No, TE_shounin_zangyou.date_kyou=TE_zangyou.date_kyou, TE_shounin_zangyou.time_kyou=TE_zangyou.time_kyou FROM TE_zangyou WHERE TE_zangyou.syain_No = TE_shounin_zangyou.syain_No", cnn)

Hello,
I am creating my companys' database and I have a small problem that must be
solved.
I have a pictures table:
PicturesTable
-------------
ProductID int ForeignKey
Picture nvarchar(30)
...
(A product can have many pictures & the ProductID is unique for any product,
but not for the table of pictures).
What I want to do is to somehow do a procedure to:
1) Check if any images (for a productID) exists in the table
2) if they do not exist then add the appropriate images into the table
3) if the images exist, then update the images with the new one that I have.
What I thought was to just delete all the images from the table for the
specific product:
DELETE FROM PicturesTable
WHERE ProductID = '10-11'
and then add the appropriate images:
INSERT INTO PicturesTable (ProductID, Picture)
VALUES ('10-11', 'Dir1/Pic1.gif')
INSERT INTO PicturesTable (ProductID, Picture)
VALUES ('10-11', 'Dir1/Pic2.gif')
INSERT INTO PicturesTable (ProductID, Picture)
VALUES ('10-11', 'Dir1/Pic3.gif')
but I do not like a lot this idea because if a user tries to read the pictures
for that product (at the same time I was deleting them) s/he would get
nothing. Is any other way that I can do it please?
I would appreciate it if someone answers me.
Yours, sincerely

My manager is interested in knowing if there is a way to update our website's SQL database using a method with excel, similar to importing.
The person who was previously in my position had imported a few hundred new products into the database with an excel spreadsheet.
Now, we would like to make updates such as a price changes or similar adjustments to a number of the products in the database. We could use a web interface, but ours requires us to find each product individually and it takes too much time. I told him that it would probably be necessary to write an SQL statement to update the tables, but we're also interested in maintaining the integrity of the database and are worried about loosing data due to a typo. Is it possible to export the db contents to an excel file, make changes, and then merge those changes into the existing database? I have tried and failed, so I am wondering if any experienced users could help me out.
Also, is there some kind of phpmyadmin for MS SQL? A free, open source alternative would be best.

I am almost sure I can update variables columns in one select/case type
statement, but having problems working out the syntax.
I have a table with transactions - with tran types as the key.
in this example, types = A,B,C ,D.
in this first example I am updating the sum of QTY to value t_A based on
tran types =A.
can I perform sub query/case to update with the same where clause
but for types B,C and D?? I also have to insert for specific lot numbers each sum values.
Create table #t_reconcile(
t_lot_number int not null,
t_A float,
t_B float,
t_C float,
t_D float)
insert #t_reconcile
select t.lot_number, sum(t.qty)
from i , t
where i._id = t.event_id
i.transaction_type = 'A'
group by t.lot_number
order by t.lot_number
I'm working on a query which involves changing the case of a field from mixed case to all lower case. The field exists in multiple tables, so to do this I have multiple update statements. Is there a way to make this more efficient?

set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestFill
set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)

update InvestUploadBrokerFilter
set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)
update InvestSettleInstructions
set BrokerID = lower(BrokerID)

HiI'm using the SQL 2000 table variable to hold 2 different fact sets.I'm declaring the variable @CurrentTable and inserting into it using aSELECT statement with no problems.I'm leaving certain of the columns null in order to later update themwith the PK.Problem is in the UPDATE syntax I'm usingUPDATE @CurrentTableSET ManagerTitle = (select mgrs.pos_title from mgrs) wheremgrs.pos_num = @CurrentTable.MgrPosNumIt is insisting I declare the @CurrentTable variable when I try to useit in the where clause.Is it simply out-of-scope or am I really doing something foolish?Andrew

View 3 Replies View RelatedOur existing DW's ETL was written in a very complex fashion by the previous team. They use DTS package lookups to read a row in the Source SQL Server database see if that row exists in the taget SQL Server database. If the row does not exist, they use ActiveX scripts to INSERT the row in the target SQL Server database. If it exists, they update the row on the target side. How would you do this in SSIS? Apologize if this sounds like a basic question, however, I would have done this via Stored Procedures or SQL Scripts especially since it involves SQL Servers alone. Appreciate any help.

I have been posting to the Data Presentation Controls forum for about a month regarding a problem I've been dealing with.
http://forums.asp.net/thread/1223055.aspx
What it boils down to is that on a button click event, I was updating
some records, then re-executing a SELECT statement to get the records
back out and rebind my DataGrids. This was happening too quickly
and the data was not being updated in time before the SELECT was
executed. So my grids would still display "old" data.
How do I get SQL Server to commit the UPDATE before my C# code continues?
Hi all,
Does an UPDATE statment lock the entire table or just the rows that will be affected by the UPDATE?
I ask because -
Can I run UPDATE statements in parallel on the same table on the same column. The need for doing this is because the table is a large fact table. I plan to execute the same UPDATE statements on different time sections of the data to expedite the processing.
If the UPDATE statment lock the entire table then I cannot run an UPDATE in parallel. If the UPDATE statement just locks the rows that will be affected then maybe I can because rows affected will be different for each UPDATE.
Let me know.
Thanks,
Vivek
When working from within VB, should i be using Insert or Update statements, or should i pass the values to a stored proc that does it for me.
thanks
I searched a bit but didn€™t get too far in actually solving a case of deadlock in a simple query I have running here. The queries in question are executed under 2 separate transactions (Serializable IsolationLevel) and are shown below. I guess I don€™t understand how those 2 can deadlock because they are operating on different rows of the table and Serializable should keep them isolated pretty well too. Is it because I€™m using the column value inside an update stmt? How should this query be split if that€™s the case?
This is what the SQL Profiler has to say:
Lock: Deadlock Chain Deadlock Chain SPID = 59
Lock: Deadlock Chain Deadlock Chain SPID = 57
Lock: Deadlock my_user_name
57: UPDATE CreditCard SET Balance = Balance - 200 WHERE (Account = 0 AND CardHolder = 'Foo' AND Balance - 200 >= 0)
59: UPDATE CreditCard SET Balance = Balance - 250 WHERE (Account = 3 AND CardHolder = 'Bar' AND Balance - 250 >= 0)
I also used DBCC TRACEON(1204, 3605, -1) but I don€™t understand what the SQL log is telling me. Can anyone shed some light on why the above 2 statements sometimes cause the following:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Transaction (Process ID 57) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)

at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe)

Hi , I am trying to update a main table from its staging table based on certain criteria
like if the checksum doesnot match for the same Business/primary key update that row in the main table .
problem what i am facing is if there are two rows in the staging table with different checksum values the main table's corresponding row gets updated with only the first row from the staging table and ignores the second row in staging , i want the update to be capturing each row. is there a way to do this task repitively in ssis.
iam using execute sql task in ssis
first step to delete all matching checksum records in staging
next update non matching checksum into main table.
i want to repeat these two steps based until condition that count of rows in staging is equal to zero .
is there a way to acheive this please let me know.
for example
staging main table
name age checksum name age checksum
xyz 26 456 xyz 24 876
xyz 28 234
my result should have in main table
xyz 28 234
but instead i am getting xyz 26 456
i want the update statement row by row not set based . please help me with this
Hi, I just want you to know that I am very young in ASP.NET world so please bear with me.I have been looking for an answer to my problem, but unfortunately I couldn’t find one. So I created a user here on www.asp.net just for making this post.
Before I continue I just want to apologies if there is another post where this question is already answered.
Please watch this Print Screen I just took: � http://www.bewarmaronsi.com/Capture.JPG “
As you can see the “INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE Statements� are disabled, and that’s exactly my problem. I tried with an MS access database and it works perfect, but when I use a MS SQL database this field gets disabled for some reason.
The MDF file is located in the App_data folder and is called ASPNETDB.
And when I try to add custom SQL statements, it gives me Syntax error near “=�. Something like that. I bought the Total Training Set1 package and it works perfect in their examples.
I just want to thank you for reading my post and I hope that you got some useful information for me.
By the way, I’, from Sweden so you have to excuse me if my English is rusty.
Thanks!

I also tried it for Accesscontrol but the same problem. Sorry for my poor English!. thanks in advance

Auditors want us to track when Insert, Update and Delete failures occur. Is this possible in SQL 2000?
They also want us to track schema changes. Is this possible?

I have a main table called Stock for example.
One process ( a service ) inserts data into this table , as well as updates certain fields of the table periodically.
Another process ( SQL Job ) updates the table with certain defaults and rules that are unknown to the service - to deal with some calculations and removal of null values where we can estimate the values etc.
These 2 processes have started to deadlock each other horribly.
The SQL Job calls one stored procedure that has around 10 statements in it. This stored proc runs every minute. Most of them are of the form below - the idea being that once this has corrected the data - the update will not affect these rows again. I guess there are read locks on the selecting part of this query - but usually it updates 0 rows - so I am wondering if there are still locks taken ?
UPDATE s
SET equivQty = Qty * ISNULL(p.Factor,4.5) / 4.5
FROM Stock s
LEFT OUTER JOIN Pack p
on s.Product = p.ProductId
AND s.Pack = p.PackId
WHERE ISNULL(equivQty,0) <> Qty * ISNULL(p.Factor,4.5) / 4.5
The deadlocks are always between these statements from the stored procedure - and the service updating rows. I can't really see how the deadlocks occur but they do.
Another suggestion has been to try and use an exists before the update as below
IF EXISTS( SELECT based on above criteria )
( UPDATE as before )
Does this reduce the locking at all ? I don't know how to test the theory - i added this code to some of the statements, and it didn't seem to make much difference ?
Is there a way to make a process ( in my case the stored procedure ) - give up if it can't aquire the locks rather than being deadlocked - which leads to job failures and emails etc ?
We are currently trying to filter down the data that is updated to be only the last few months - to reduce the amount of rows even analyzed - as the deadlocking does seem to be impacted by the number of rows in the tables.
Hi,I'm new to ASP.NET and having a problem configuring the SqlDataSource control. I am using the standard ASP.NET 2.0 "aspnetdb" database to manage user accounts. The problem is this:When using the wizard to configure my SqlDataSource control, the option to auto-generate the Insert/Update/Delete SQL statements are grayed out. I've searched this forum and found that this can be a symptom of no primary keys in the tables. However, there are primary keys (UserId), which is the default schema as generated by asp.net (aspnet_regsql.exe). When I use the wizard, I make the following choices:How would you like to retrieve data from your database?-> Select "Specify columns from a table or view"-> Select the "vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers" view from the "Name:" drop-down list-> Select "UserId", "Email", "UserName" from "Columns:"After this, still no option to auto-generate I/U/D statements. Any thoughts on why this isn't working??? Thanks,Leah.
