If I have a temporary table called #CTE
With the columns
[Account]

and I need to change the column type for the columns:

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have contract table which has built in foreign key constrains. How can I alter this table for delete/ update cascade without recreating the table so whenever studentId/ contactId is modified, the change is effected to the contract table.
Thanks
************************************************** ******
Contract table DDL is
create table contract(

studentId char(4) not null foreign key references student (studentId),
contactId int not null foreign key references contact (contactId)

In SQL Server 2005,here are two tables, created by the following SQL Statements:
CREATE TABLE student(
ID CHAR(6) PRIMARY KEY,
NAME VARCHAR(10),
AGE INT
);
CREATE TABLE score(
ID CHAR(6) PRIMARY KEY,
SCORE INT,
FOREIGN KEY(ID) REFERENCES student(ID)
);
For the length of Column ID is not enough, So I want to alter its length.The alter statement is:
ALTER TABLE student ALTER COLUMN ID CHAR(20)
For the table student is referenced by table score, the alter statement can not alter the column of the table student, and the SQL Server DBMS give the errors.
But, I can manually alter the length of the column ID in SQL SERVER Management Studio. How to alter column length of the master table(student) along with the slave table(score)?
Thanks!

View 1 Replies View RelatedA customer wants to implement table partitioning on a replicated table.
They want to hold 13 months of data in the table and roll off the earliest/oldest month to an identical archive table. The table has a date field and partitioning by month makes sense all around.
So SWITCH PARTITION is the obvious solution to this, except for the fact that the table is replicated (transactional w/no subscriber updates).
What are his architectural or practical solutions to using table partitioning and replication?

Problem: I have a calculated field on a PO table that adds up item prices on an Item table to get the total PO value. This works as expected until there are at least 10 rows in the PO table. From the 10 row on the calculated field stops working and only shows 0.

I have a table tblABC which exists in 800 databases. I want to run a cursor to turn off the pk field ID indentity permannetly and then to "insert tblABC select * from tblXYZ".
I have tried the "set indentity_insert tblABC on" statement and failed on insert tblABC select * from tblXYZ.
Is there any alter table related t-sql could permannetly turn off the identity?

Is there anyway to Insert a new column between two existing columns without creating a new table?
Thanks
Hi,
is it possible to override the system when adjusting
columns. i.e. a system override setting.
For instance if I've got a column that is indexed and I
want to adjust it from varchar(50) to varchar(51) it lets
me. But if I then try and adjust the column to varchar
(49) I get the error below:
Server: Msg 5074, Level 16, State 8, Line 1
The index 'LastName' is dependent on column 'lastname'.
Server: Msg 4922, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN lastname failed because one or
more objects access this column.
I asked this question on another Forum and was told I had to drop the index first. Just thought I'd ask for a second opinion.
Thanks for the help.

Hi to all!
I have a silly problem, but I'm not able to solve it!
I know how to add a field in a table via Enterprise manager and I know also via ALTER TABLE command.
...But the problem is: I want to add a field NOT in the last position, but on the middle (for istance)
So, this is possible via Enterprise Manager but with the ALTER TABLE command? How can I add a field without put it in the last position?
...Thanks a lot!
Sergio
p.s.: Sorry for my poor english..I hope you understand my question!
hello,
i am trying to add a column to every table in a database, if it (doesn't already exist), with the following code:
declare @name varchar(50)
declare c cursor for select name from sys.tables
open c
fetch next from c into @name
while @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
begin
if( (select count(*) from sys.columns
WHERE object_id IN (SELECT object_id FROM sys.tables WHERE name = @name )
and name='ins_id') = 0 )
begin
alter table @name add ins_id int
end
fetch next from c into @name
end
close c
deallocate c
and when i run the script i get the error message
Incorrect syntax near '@name'.
reffering to the alter table statement
So, my question is, how can i actually perform the alter table in this case?
thank you

View 8 Replies View RelatedI used the MS Access 2000 Upsize wizard to create a Client/serverapplication. After the wizard ran, the original table names had becomethe linked tables and then there were duplicates of the the tablesnamed xxx_local.I realized later that I needed to add some fields to a table andcouldn't do that in Access (couldn't edit the linked tables). So I usedthe Query Analyzer and created a script to add the fields to my table.It looked fine in Query Analyzer, but back in Access the fields wereadded to xxx_local and not xxx, the linked table. My forms and reportsare built on xxx, not xxx_local.How do I do this correctly?Jane
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to insert some new rows in the table tbl_3, but the problem is that I don't know how to go along with the ID column. I want to insert new rows so that it gets appended at the end and new ID is automatically generated.
Looks like this had to be done while creating the table. The original table has the id assigned as 'Identity', but I have imported this table to my database and now it does not show that property in the ID column.
The Insert code that I am using is as follows and the tbl_3 has same no. of columns except it also has id.
Can I alter table without touching the previous IDs? The ids start at 28118 and ends at 28300.
Code Snippet
INSERT INTO [dbo].[tbl_3]
(3_name
,3_sort
,3_active
,3_display
,3_date)
select _MANUFACTURERNAME , 1, 1, 'True',
GETDATE()
from dbo._MANUFACTURERS where upper(_MANUFACTURERNAME) not in (
select Upper(3_name) from dbo.tbl_3 join
dbo._MANUFACTURERS on Upper(3_name) = Upper(_MANUFACTURERNAME))
And the error it is returning to me is
Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
Cannot insert the value NULL into column '3_id', table '.dbo.tbl_3'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
hi,
i have table having just two columns. One of columns is defines as nchar(5).
Want to alter table like
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TestTable] ALTER COLUMN [Something] [nchar] (2)
COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL
GO
?
This script runs without problem till i have no data in table. When i add one row, this script fails with
Msg 8152, Level 16, State 13, Line 1
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
When i change the table in design mode, it says that data will be truncated and do the change (with truncating).
So is there any possibility (a switch or whatever) to update this table by script with letting engine truncate data?
Thanks for any response
