View 1 Replies View Relatedhello all,
I don't know how to update table A with data from table B without specifying every column.
These two tables have the same fields and same structure.
I know that it's possible to do the following:
update table A
set A.name = B.name,
A.job = B.job
from table B
But I have many columns and don't want to describe every column, is that possible?
Thanks!

How to resolve the below task
create table #temp ( idx int identity(1,1), col1 int, col2 int )
Here i want a flag success or fail on basis of below conditions.
I need to take all the col1 values and then i need to compare to each other.
if any difference found, i need to check difference more than 30, then it should raise the flag as "Failure".
if all the col1 values are ok , then we need to check Col2 values same as above.
--case 1
insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16582,18522
--select * from #temp
--truncate table #temp
Because of difference in col1 values . the value of flag should be fail.
--case 2
insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,17522
Here also the col1 is ok but col2 values have difference so it should be Fail.
Otherwise it should be success.

How to write make a query for that?
table2 is intially populated (basically this will serve as historical table for view); temptable and table2 will are similar except that table2 has two extra columns which are insertdt and updatedt
process:
1. get data from an existing view and insert in temptable
2. truncate/delete contents of table1
3. insert data in table1 by comparing temptable vs table2 (values that exists in temptable but not in table2 will be inserted)
4. insert data in table2 which are not yet present (comparing ID in t2 and temptable)
5. UPDATE table2 whose field/column VALUE is not equal with temptable. (meaning UNMATCHED VALUE)
* for #5 if a value from table2 (historical table) has changed compared to temptable (new result of view) this must be updated as well as the updateddt field value.
I am using SQL Server 2008. In one of my table, one column has values like
"MFY RLHH CSQÉ"
"Aamj Gxmolwn Slf Yytrzgan Hiwd Fnlmyw"
So to fetch the data having only special characters in it, I used below query
Select * From Table Where Column Like '%[^0-9a-zA-Z]%' Escape ' '. Its returning both the records. Here I would like to fetch records for those Unicode characters only which are not within 00201 - 0070E [URL].
Not sure if this is ever going to be possible, but I'm trying to do a dynamic join on EXECUTE, but the execution string has to come from a table column.... i.e

inner join (execute a.thesql) as b
on a.userId=b.userid
I have a table with a column AttributeNumber and a column AttributeValue. The data is like this:
OrderNo. AttributeNumber AttributeValue

4.-Order_2 2001 A
5.-Order_2 2002 B
6.-Order_2 2003 C
So the logic is as follows:
I need to display in my query the values are coming from Order_1, means AttributreValues coming from AttibuteNumbers: 2001,2002,2003...and Order_2 the same thing.
Not sure how to create my Select here since the values are in the same table

Is it possible to update from one table to another?Pls examine my code here:

I am trying to concatenate the columns from tStaffDir_PrevEmp to tStaffDir but I have this error where tStaffDir_PrevEmp is recognised as a column and not a table.
Pls advise how this can be done. Many Thanks.
I have a table wherein I have to update a particular column (receipt code) based on another column of the same table (receipt number). i have to do calculations in order to generate the correct receipt code, and i have to do this on every row of the table. how can i do this? will this update be in a loop or something?

I am trying to remove a user from Reporting Services via code. I have found that the way to do this is to remove their details from an XML field in the table SecData
The name of the column is xml_description
An example value of the column is below:
<Policy>
<GroupUserName>BUILTINAdministrators</GroupUserName>
<GroupUserId>AQIAAAAAAAUgAAAAIAIAAA==</GroupUserId>
<Roles>
<Role>
<Name>Content Manager</Name>
[Code]....
I would like to remove the bolded part in the column when I put in the user's name.
So the code would start with:
Declare @username varchar (20)
Set @ username = 'EMEAMJohnson'
Followed by the logic to remove the bolded part of the column.
The column is called xml_description and the name of the table is SecData.
Hello all, was wondering if you could point me in the right direction for this.
I have a db with a column classifications, and in that column are 'Accountants - (1234)' 'Book-keepers - (18) etc etc. Now what I want to do is remove the - (xxxx) section and obviously the white space, so I am just left with 'Accountants' 'Book-keepers' etc.
1. Is there an easy way to do this?
Ok so my thoughts were create a another table and put the ammended classifications in that to update the first table. Your probably asking why not just do it on the first table...Answer. There are over 150,000 records to change.
So I now have my first table with column classification and my second table with the correct classification ammendments.
I can sit down and manually type
UPDATE table1
SET classifications = 'Accountants'
Where classifications = 'Accounts - (xxxx)'
until i have completed the entire list in table 2 but I was hoping you good people would know a way to work through the list so it would automatically update each classification correctly.
The problem I have here is I dont know how to work through table 2 and match it to something in table 1 and update it.
Any help is greatfully appreciated
Hi,
I am quite new in SSIS and I have a question. I don't know what is the best way to get it work...
So simply I have in my SQL Server database 2 tables :
First table "SER" fields
SER_ID
SER_IS_CHANGE_RELATED
where I have only the field SER_ID filled like
SER_ID SER_IS_CHANGE_RELATED
1234 NULL
1235 NULL
1236 NULL
Second table "SRE" fields
SRE_ID
SRE_SER_ID
SRE_CHA_ID
and the content would be for example
SRE_ID SRE_SER_ID SRE_CHA_ID
1 1234 2345
2 1234 2346
3 1236 2347
The 2 tables are related by the fields : SER_ID = SRE_SER_ID
So I would like to have the following result in my table "SER":
SER_ID SER_IS_CHANGE_RELATED
1234 True
1235 NULL
1236 True
"True" because one or more entry is present in table "SRE" for each SER_ID (= SRE_SER_ID)
Hope my example is clear....
Thanks for your help

I have a simple question that is more about performance on my code for updating a column with the sum of two columns:
Example
Table = dbo.adding
c1 c2 c3Sum
1 2
3 5
4 6
Now if I just simple write
Update dbo.adding
set c3SUM = c1 + c2
This works, but there is a null in c1 or c2 then I know I can write this:
if exists (select * from dbo.adding where c1 is NULL)
Update dbo.adding
set c1 = '0', c3SUM = '0' + c2 where c1 is NULL
if exists (select * from dbo.adding where c2 is NULL)
Update dbo.adding
set c2 = '0', equals = c1 + '0' where c2 is NULL
Update dbo.adding
set c3SUM = c1 + c2
This works as well, but I am not sure how perficient it is being that from my understanding the code will evaluate the table three times and update it based on the criteria. If the table consists of 100,000 rows then this might not be a good solution
Is there a more proficient way to do this... I personally try to as little coding as possible to help increase performance. I know I can make this very complex and declare variables and put everything in a loop, but I personally think that would be less profient..
