In SSMS, I used the ALTER TABLE statement to add a field to a table. No errors are generated and I can verify that the field has been added. Since there are only about 20 records in the table, I use the Edit All Records option to populate that new field. Later, when a job runs using that new field, it fails because the field suddenly does not exist. Sure enough, I check the table and the field is gone. To be more specific, I can add and populate the new field at 2pm. At 6pm, when the job runs, the new field is apparently gone.
I have searched for answers but only have found responses related to the "Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation" in the Tools|Options settings in SSMS. I did uncheck that option, but the problem persists. Based on my searches, the only other alternative is to recreate the table with the new field and move the data from the "old" table to the "new". I got the impression that unchecking that option would mean I would not need to do all this.
I know I have done this type of change before with no issues. What may have changed?I am using SQL Server 2008R2 SP2 on Windows Server 2008R2 SP1.
The problem with this is that after every rename, permission to the TableB is lost so we have to execute a statement to grant permission back to TableB after the process is complete.
My question is why is this necessary? Is the permission tied to the table in such a way that it can't use the name only?
This problem is connected with the query i posted yesterday regarding insertion of global variables. I was able to insert the variable in a table to check its value.
This value is mapped to the global variable in a previous Execute SQL Task. But when I use the same global variable to insert in a table, default value 0 is inserted.
My query is does the global variable declared at the package level does not store the value mapped across multiple tasks in control flow?
How can i insert the value stored in a variable in a table from previous SQL Task.
Can anyone suggest some solution,links to try a workaround?
I would like to create a procedure which create views by taking parameters the table name and a field value (@Dist).
However I still receive the must declare the scalar variable "@Dist" error message although I use .sp_executesql for executing the particularized query.
Below code.
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[sp_ViewCreate] /* Input Parameters */ @TableName Varchar(20), @Dist Varchar(20) AS Declare @SQLQuery AS NVarchar(4000) Declare @ParamDefinition AS NVarchar(2000)
I am trying to move data from one table to the another (staging to real time) in a stored procedure.
There are no indexes or primary keys on the target table and it is still taking ages to execute it (30 minutes approx.). There are no defaults, no constraints as well. There is one identity int column though.
There are some 500000 odd rows in the target table.
I would like to return the nearest date of Table B in my table like for
ID W001 in table B should return ID A002 CreatedDatetime: 2014-06-03 20:05:48.000 ID W002 in table B should return ID A004 CreatedDatetime: 2014-06-04 01:05:48.000
I have 2 identical tables one contains current settings, the other contains all historical settings.I could create a union view to display the current values from table A and all historical values from table B, butthat would also require a Variable to hold the tblid for both select statements.
Q. Can this be done with one joined or conditional select statement?
DECLARE @tblid int = 501 SELECT 1,2,3,4,'CurrentSetting' FROM TableA ta WHERE tblid = @tblid UNION SELECT 1,2,3,4,'PreviosSetting' FROM Tableb tb WHERE tblid = @tblid
I have a more than 50 departments in my table and trying to get top 10, something I need to show in a report like top9 departments and then rest of them has to show as Others in 10th row. is it possible ?
when I use top 10 from table I am getting top 10 rows but I need the top 9 list and rest as others in 10th row.
I have table like below
Custid, department, location 1 Fin NY 2 Acc NY 3 HR MI 4 5 6
What I want is to divide the row value for 'OB Dial Attempts' by the row value for '# Ready To Work Inventory', both in the same table.The code below will work, however I think there is a flaw in my logic. The actual table only has one row per category (MatrixCat) and will always have only one row per category.
CREATE TABLE #NumVals (MatrixCat VARCHAR(100), MatrixVal VARCHAR(100)); INSERT INTO #NumVals (MatrixCat, MatrixVal) VALUES ('# Ready To Work Inventory','606'), ('OB Dial Attempts','255');
I need to query to return a result for each unique machine with the latest date. The example result below would be returned because they have the latest date.
MachineA 5/7/2011 MachineB 5/5/2010
Select Distinct would almost do it, but I need each unique machine that has the latest date.
I am trying to build a simple time table and pre-populate the rows for lets say 1 year. Basically, I will be extracting the data froma source based on the boundaries of this table. eg of this table as I can visualize:
Lets call this TimeTable and we have our souce and destination table..The ETL process will pick the start time and endtime, will pass these as parameters to the source and extract the data as follows:
Insert into Destination select * from source where entrydate>=TimeTable.StartTime and entrydate<TimeTable.EndTime
Once this data gets loaded, the IsProcessed field is set to 1 so that next time it won't be considered.I am trying an incremental load process here.
I have to make a stored procedure that will show the history and changes made to a given EmpNo, with the UpdateDate, UpdateUser and indicate which field is modified. Ex. Employee Mobile number was changed from '134151235' to '23523657'.
Result must be:
EmpNo | UpdateDate | UpdateUser | Field changed | Change from | change to
We have a table setup to track changes that are made to another table, for auditing purposes. How do we compare the most recent record in the change table with the previous record in the change table? Particularly, we have a column named DUE_DATE in the change table and want to identify when the most recent change has a different DUE_DATE than the previous change made.
I am having SP which gives, two result sets. The columns which are coming from result sets are also dynamic. i.e. some time 5 columns and some time 10 columns.
Now I want to load this output into 2 different tables on daily basis. This would be truncate/delete table and load again.
Now my problem is that as I am not sure about columns, Is it possible to create table(Physical Table) depends on output of SP, and after load data into it.
During each load we can drop table, No issue and we can handle this through SSIS Package.
Entity Value A 2424053.500000 B 1151425.412500 C 484810.700000 Table 2 contains
Entity Formula A (2100*(1-0.0668)*24*mday*10) B (1000*(1-0.0575)*24*mday*10) C (1260*(1-0.09)*24*mday*10)
Where mday is number of days taken from user
I need to calculate the output of value/formula for each entity can you provide me the query for the same
The datatype for formula column is varchar
I do not have the liberty to use cursors or loops.mday will be a input fromt the user say 'mday = 31' ..i need to divide the value in the first table with the computed value of the formula after replacement
I am looking for a script, that returns all SPs, which related to a given table, incl. the access type.For example: the SPs SP_test1, SP_test2, SP_test3 are dependencies of MyTable
This should be the result: MyTable --> SP_test1: select --> SP test1: update --> SP_test1: drop --> SP test2: delete --> SP_test3: insert
There are a lot of scripts, who returns the related SPs.
I want to return all rows in table giftregistryitems with an additional column that holds the sum of column `amount` in table giftregistrypurchases for the respective item in table giftregistryitems.
What I tried, but what returns NULL for purchasedamount, where I want purchasedamount to be the sum of the `amount` for THAT item, based on giftregistrypurchases.itemid=giftregistryitems.id:
SELECT (SELECT SUM(amount) from giftregistrypurchases gps where registryid=gi.registryid AND gp.itemid=gps.itemid) as purchasedamount,* FROM giftregistryitems gi LEFT JOIN giftregistrypurchases gp on gp.registryid=gi.id WHERE gi.registryid=2
How can I achieve what I need?
Here's my table definition and data:

How do loop a table server(serverlist,flag) table with these 2 columns.And ping each of the servers in the table and update the flag column to '1' if ping has been successfull or flag to '0' if ping has been unsuccessfull.
I have a de-normalized table that I need to export to XML using For XML, but put all of the related rows under the same node.The table is alot more complicated than the example below, but for proof of concept purposes, i'll keep it really simple:
Is there an existing option that deals with this automatically, or do I essentially need to do a group by to output the campaign element, and then union an ungrouped select to output the price element?
I have a small problem with a join clause, because i need to return all values from my table BL:
