View 2 Replies View RelatedIntelliSense And Standards Compliance Tools For SQL Coding
May 13, 2008Visual Studio provides IntelliSense and targeted standards compliance code checkers that are extremely useful when writing code. A good example is for web pages targeted to XHTML 1.0 transitional versus strict versus XHTML 1.1.
Is there anything comparable for SQL coding in any of the Microsoft products whether Visual Studio or SQL Server Management Studio or any other development environment?
I'm looking for IntelliSense that can be targeted to one of three alternative configurations: (1) ANSI SQL-92 only, or (2) ANSI SQL-99 only, or alternatively, (3) T-SQL with proprietary Microsoft features/functions (ie, not ANSI compliant in the sense that it is no longer portable per ANSI criteria - it will break when ported due to presence of Microsoft proprietary features/functions).
If standards targeted IntelliSense is not available in any of the Microsoft products for SQL development, is there any third-party product that provides this capability?

Database Standards HELP!
Sep 23, 2005I would like to create a new database and follow some standard. I am hoping that there is some ANSI documentation or Microsoft documentation on a NAMING standard when creating objects in the database.i.e Table name "tblEmployees" Column name "txtLastName" Is there any GOOD documentation on creating a database using a PROVEN, and ACCEPTED standard?

SQL Standards
Nov 25, 2004I am writing an client application that will be connected to data source. However, I do not know what the data source will be (could be mySQL, SQL Server Express, MS Access, ODBC, etc). I would like to write my data access queries using a standard that will be accepted by various data sources. What is such standard and where can I read more about it?

Naming Standards For SQL Objects
Sep 2, 1998I was wondering if there are generally accpeted naming standards for SQL Server ojbects (tables, store procedeures, triggers, views etc.) that might be available somewhere on the WEB. I was also wondering if most DBA`s prefix the object names like "sp_" or suffix the object like "Customer_T"? Any opinions?

SQL Server Naming Standards (or What Is Most Commonly Used)
Oct 29, 2007Are there common naming standards for SQL tables and stored procedures? I'm creating a table for target audiences and was going to set it up like this:
Target_Audiences
Target_Audience_ID
Target_Audience
This table is really straight forward, but let me know if you would change anything. I want to use all of the most common naming standards throughout my database.
Output Data Bandwidth Standards?
Nov 1, 2006All:
One of the new tests that we are running have to do with load testing an application with a constrained network pipe. I like this. One of my beefs has been related to stored procedures that return bloated result sets. This new set of tests potentially gives me some more amunition to use when I review stored procedures. A piece that I would like to produce as a result of this has to do with establishing an output bandwidth standard for our database servers. I have a few biased ideas but I would like to know if any of you have any similar pre-existing standards along this line. Any help?

Standards For Custom Component Development
Jan 24, 2006Hi,
Maybe I didn't search hard enough on BOL, but does Microsoft have a documented set of standards regarding custom component development for SSIS. Things like:
- extend this base class, implement this interface
- override these methods
- follow these naming conventions
- best practices
Thanks,

SQL Server 2012 :: Parsing XML That Does Not Quite Fit Normal XML Standards
Jan 21, 2015I have an application that stores xml data in an unusal manor. Basically a SQL Key column and an XML string.The XML string is not really standard XML, but it is what it is, and I'm stuck with it. It is in the format;
<row key="Value.01" xml:space="preserve"><c1>FirstName</c1><c2>LastName</c2><c3>10 Street Address, City ST 012345-1234</c3><c4>5</c4><c5>50</c5><c6>500</c6></row>
I am able to pull values out via
SELECT
p.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS c1,
p.value('(./c2)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') AS c2
FROM dbo.UserXMLTable
CROSS APPLY XMLRECORD.nodes('/row') t(p)
where p.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') like 'First%'
However I've been struggling with selecting row with a LIKE clause. Something like ;
SELECT *
FROM dbo.F_UserXMLTable
where XMLRECORD.value('(./c1)[1]', 'VARCHAR(8000)') like 'First%'
I have tried a number of permutations of XML syntax but so far have been stumpled.
Please note "<row key="Value.01" xml:space="preserve">" has a <SP> in the name 'row key' .
SSIS Package Development Standards/Workarounds
Apr 25, 2008Having a difficult time setting up a development environment and a set of standards for SSIS package development.
First of all, you can't run the dataflow object "SQL Server Destination" in BIDS because BULKCOPY can only be run from the actual server. So how do you test/debug a package with this object in it?
Second of all, if you create an SSIS package on a developer computer in BIDS, and then import it into the SSIS package store on your development SQL server, you can't run the package from Management Studio on the developer PC. You get the error "DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW" when it tries to run any of the SSIS. Do I have to have SSIS installed on the developer client machine? How do I do that without installing a full server instance on each client machine (not to mention the licsense issues)?
Lastly, what protection level would you suggest using for production? We are having issues with ODBC connection passwords being decrypted and thus package steps failing in using "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey". What exactly does this protection level do? Our network is physically very locked down, so we arent worried about SSIS package security too much, just looking for a way for them to work reliably without having to setup complicated security scenarios.
thanks for your time.
What Encryption (eg AES128) Standards Are Supported For SQL Server Compact 3.5 On WM5 And WM6?
Apr 15, 2008I was told that AES 128/SHA1 is supported for SQL Server Compact 3.5. The problem is that I couldn't find any product literature from Microsoft that specifies exactly that and my client wants us to provide proof on that.
I hope to get the endorsement from the forum here, and it would be great if someone could point me to some Microsoft resources that specifies the support clearly.
Integration Services :: SSIS Standards And Documentation Template
Oct 21, 2015I am sure this questions have been asked but i was not able to find a useful information.
1. I am looking for a SSIS Standards document or source. A document developer can use for developing ssis package. This should include how to name each container, task , and how to organize things. Basics of SSIS. Is there some kind of source where i can find this information . We are starting out to migrate from informatica to SSIS but before we do that we would like to put standards in place so all SSIS development is consistent.
2. SSIS project documentation template that we can use to document each project. Is there anything out there that we can follow to document each of our project.

SQL Coding
Jul 2, 2002I'm attempting to copy data from an Epicore server with multiple company
databases to another server. All this data will be placed in a single
table on the receiving server with the addition of an database identifier,
so that the receiving department will know, to which company the data
belongs. I have code that will dynamically create the SQL and then
execute it using EXEC (@SQL), and this works just fine acrosss multiple
databases. I've read in my Transact-SQL Programming book that using
EXEC() is not limited to 255 characters, but it still appears that my
dynamically created SQL is being shortened. The insert statement and the
select statement list each column, and here is that code:

Coding Help
Oct 31, 2001Hello,
I have the following code and it seems that it is not comparing the request_close_date. What I want to do is compare the request_close_date between two tables and if it is less than the date from the TEAM3B_PULL_TOTAL_TST then insert the data into RDD_UPDATE_TST. Any help will be appreciated. It also needs to insert data into RDD_UPDATE_TST if a request exists in REQUEST_BUS_REQ and BUS_REQ_DESCRIPTION. I think that I have that coded correctly but I am not certain.
Thanks in advance,
Anne
begin
Insert into RDD_UPDATE_TST(request,business_req_id,test_case_i d,test_case_descr,request_close_date)
select distinct request,business_req_id,test_case_id,test_case as test_case_descr,request_close_date
from TEAM3B_PULL_TOTAL_TST A
where not exists (select * from BUS_REQ_DESCRIPTION_TST B where A.REQUEST = B.REQUEST)
and not exists (select * from REQUEST_BUS_REQ_TST C where A.REQUEST = C.REQUEST)
and not exists (select * from RDD_UPDATE_TST D where A.REQUEST = D.REQUEST)
and exists (select * from RDD_UPDATE_TST where REQUEST_CLOSE_DATE <>B.REQUEST_CLOSE_DATE)
end

Stored Procedure Coding
Nov 2, 2004Hello,
I'm coding a stored procedure. I am creating a search function where I search multiple resultsets of data. I'm getting stuck on one part of the query, and I don't know what the best option is. Basically the query looks like this:
select * from Table where ...
and Official in (... problem area ...)
What I want is if the parameter passed in is null, return all of the valid values from the table that references this field (for example, if null is passed in, I want to pass in 'T', 'F', etc.). If the value is there, I want to pass in the value. I've been stuck on this and can't figure it out.
Any ideas? I don't want to use a dynamic query. Thanks,
Brian
A Coding Challenge From The Blindman.
May 5, 2006Hey it's not often the blindman asks for advice on sql coding (never, I think), so here is an opportunity to solve a problem I've been knocking my head against for two days.
Here is sample code for setting up the problem:create table #blindman
(pkey smallint primary key,
fkey char(1),
updateddatetime)
insert into #blindman (pkey, fkey, updated)
select1, 'A', '1/1/2006'
UNION
select2, 'B', '1/1/2006'
UNION
select3, 'A', '1/2/2006'
UNION
select4, 'B', '1/2/2006'
UNION
select5, 'A', '1/4/2006'
UNION
select6, 'B', '1/2/2006'
UNION
select7, 'A', '1/3/2006'
UNION
select8, 'B', '1/3/2006'
UNION
select9, 'A', '1/5/2006'
UNION
select10, 'B', '1/5/2006'
drop table #blindman
Notice that for fkey 'B', there are two entries with '1/2/2006', and for fkey 'A' the updated values are not in synch with the order of the primary key.
The challenge: determine the next pkey for each pkey value, ordered by [updated], and using pkey as a tie-breaker when two records have the same [updated] value.
Here is the desired output for the sample data:pkey fkey updated nextpkey
------ ---- ---------- --------
1 A 2006-01-01 3
3 A 2006-01-02 7
7 A 2006-01-03 5
5 A 2006-01-04 9
2 B 2006-01-01 4
4 B 2006-01-02 6
6 B 2006-01-02 8
8 B 2006-01-03 10
Records 9 and 10 are missing because they have not succeeding records, though I'd be just has satisfied to include them with NULL as their nextpkey value.
Ideally, I want this as a VIEW.
Who's up for the challenge?
Beginner's Question To Coding
Oct 10, 2006ok this is for a class assignment so if anyone doesnt want to help thats cool, but its just a small extra credit assignment and we havent gone over it in class and and the book, well is confusing to say the least so here are my questions:
What is the total weight of different colored parts?
ok so i have a parts table, with pcolor and pweight in it but i am unsure how to code that, here is kinda what i think it might be, i have no real way to check to see if it is correct though:
Select sum pweight
from parts
where distinct pcolor
looks horribly wrong so any help is appreciated. here is another one:
What colored part has total weight greater than 8 units?
select pcolor
from parts
where sum pweight > 8
???
i dunno lol.
there is a hint that says to use "GROUP BY" and "HAVING" but i dont see how that fits in... any ideas?
