hi, we have got a new server at work running SBS 2003. the old server was SBS 2000 and it has a database on it. Both are running the SQL server program. Can anyone give me instructions to transfer these over (i have no idea how). i realise this has probably been asked before but i dont have the time to search so if someone could link a thread with instructions that would be good. cheers.
View 2 RepliesHi,
I'm pretty new to SQL and certainly new to SQL Server, so this is no doubt a simple question, but how can I take a row of data (say row 117) and swap it with another specified row of data? I know it sounds odd, but the key for each row is automatically generated so I don't want to mess with that, so I just want to swap the other fields.
Here's an example of what I mean:
----------------------------------------------
ID | headline | content | newstype | date |
----------------------------------------------
117 | test | asdfgasd| industry | 06/06|
118 | test2 | adsfg as| company | 06/06|
----------------------------------------------
What i've discovered is that the order of data in the rows isn't correct, so I want to maintain the ID fields seeing as they're in numeric order, but then use that ID to grab the rest of the row (117 for example) and replace the data for 118 with 117's data. Then do the same with 118's original data....
I need to do this because all the related rows in my table were posted on the same date, so other than that they appear on screen based on where they appear in the table, which doesn't match what the client wants...
Sorry for the long post, but as a beginner with SQL I wanted to make sure I made sense!
I need to swap two rows in a table so that i can give the user a choice to move the row data up and down. The top and bottom row values may not be in the serial order. I am using MS Sql 2000. Is there any way to do that or its really difficult big process. I really stuck with this problem can you help me out, please friends.. Your help will greatly appreciated..
Thank you very much
Ok .. a challenge ...
How do you swap two columns based on some condition without using a cursor ( I mean a set based solution).
What is a good method/mechanism to swap the position of multiplecolumns?For instance, tblXZY has the followings columns and respectivepositions:tblXZY======xyzUUID 1fn 2ln 3phone 4email 5city 6state 7....Now, I need to make city as 2 and state as 3. BTW, the tblXYZ tablehas data there. Copy/select all the data into a new table withdesired column position would require constraints re-mapping etc.,which seems quite a bit hassle.Thanks.

TNX FOR ALL THE HELP I GET IN THIS Forum
I've 2 measures that I would like to swap according to which member in a dimension are selected by the user:Ex.
[Measure].[A]
[Measure].[B]
Dimension called TEMP with 2 members (HOT and COLD).So if the user choose HOT it should show [Measure].[A] and if the user choose COLD it should show [Measure].[B]If the dimension is not included in the analysis by the user or if no dimension attribute are choosed then it should default to [Measure].[A].How to do that as Calculated Script in the SSAS cube ?
I need swapping values in rows of tables based on primary.
I will explain my scenario with the below example.
ID Name Value
--- -------- --------
1 name1 202
2 name1 203
3 name2 203
4 name2 202
5 name3 204
In the above example, I want to swap Value 202 and 203 but its not straight forward. I want to swap in a way that, I need to group by Name column and check if 203 comes first in the group then swap else don't.
In the above example, I need to swap the values for name2 but not for name1. Below query is performing a straight forward swap.
UPDATE TblTest
SET Value
=
CASE
WHEN
Value
=202
THEN203
ELSE202
END
WHERE
Valuein(202,203)
We are hosting a 140 GB database on SQL Server Version 7 and Windows2000 Advanced Server on an 8-cpu box connected to a 15K rpm RAID 5SAN, with 4 GB of RAM (only 2 GB of which seem to be visible to theOS) and a 4 GB swap file. (The PeopleSoft CIS application will notpermit us to upgrade to SQL 2K.) We recently upgraded the server from4 to 8 cpus and the SAN disks from 10K to 15K drives. But we stillhave heavy SAN disk usage, sometimes at 100%, and read queues oftenaveraging 4 and peaking at 12.The CPUs are loaded at only 20-50%. (The politics are such that it iseasier to throw hardware at the problems.)We are looking into archiving, converting from RAID 5 to RAID 10, andat splitting the mdf file into several file groups in an attempt toget more disk heads into play. (We are also looking at rewriting theapplication to reduce the read volume and frequency.) Does anyone haveany other ideas?Incidentally, does swapfile get used when the physical memory equalsthe OS maximum? If the OS can only see 2 GB and we have 2 GB (actually4 GB) of memory, is the 4GB local swap file on the C drive unused?Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi,
Is there any tool available to migrate the data from the SQL Server test database to SQL Server production database. Data Migration should be based on a condition which can be given as an input for a table by the user. The dependant tables also should be migrated based on the given condition. i.e data subsetting based on the matching conditions.
Ex : Salary > 2000
The rows of the table which matches the condition alone need to be migrated for the corresponding table. Also its dependant table's rows should be migrated based on the given condition. Please help me with a tool which can automate this.
Thanks,
MiraJ

Hi all (newbie @ asp.net)(oldie @ ASP 3)What is the purpose of using an attached MDF database files in the App_Data folder on a web site as to importing it into the SQL server directly or creating it on the SQL server. Does a mdf database attached file purely use the SQL server as a connection interface.Is it something similiar to DSN(ODBC) Connections for ms access databases.

I did tried the encryption on server "A" for database "AdventureWorks2012". Then I tried to restore to server "B". There was the certificate issue, and I thought "of course : it's encrypted ! Let's deactivate it". So here I go "ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks2012 SET ENCYRPTION OFF".I look at sys.databases : not encrypted.I backup using no encryption, I verify using msdb.dbo.backupset : not encrypted.
I move my backup to my other server where encryption was never configured (so no certificate, nothing...), and I have the error :
Msg 33111, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Cannot find server certificate with thumbprint '0xFA130E58C999C4919B8975999C83A75A403B11D8'.

I want to restore a database (from an encrypted .bak file) - but *not* over the live original if you take my meaning. Encryption is the standard AES-256 that comes with Sql Server 2014 btw.

I would like to capture a success message if possible.I can extract the physical device name of the database in question using the following code:
SELECT physical_device_name, *
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily
WHERE media_set_id =(SELECT TOP 1 media_set_id
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name='MyDatabase'
AND type='D'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC)
I would like if the newly restored database was rename to something different than 'MyDatabase' (as shown above) and has different logs than the original. If possible, and capture a success message when restored.
