When I export a table from my local SQL Server to my web-host's SQL
Server, the primary key never seems to export. This happens whether I
use the "Copy tables and views..." option or the "Copy objects and
data..." option. Anybody know why this happens?
How can I Export Database with foreing Key and primary key.
Operation is that
SQL2005 Management Studio/Database/Tasks/Export Data
Before Version is SQL2000 we can Selected Copy Object and data between server and then Use Default Options click checked and Select Copy Index, Copy Foreing Primary key vs vs
But this options is not found in the SQL2005 Management Studio/Database/Tasks/Export Data wizard or I can't found it.
How can I export foreing Key and primary key with SQL2005 Management Studio/Database/Tasks/Export Data wizard.
Best Regards,
Athena.
I have a table, tbl1:create table tbl1 ([field1] [char] (16) NULL DEFAULT (' '),[field2] [char] (6) NULL DEFAULT (' ')).When I do a select * into tbl2 from tbl1, tbl2 does not have defaults.Is there any settings I have to keep on when I do a select * into?Any help will be appreciated.

Can someone tell me if there's a way to export data from one database to another without losing the primary key information that has been set in the source database?
Please respond to URL. Thanks!

Currently, I'm exporting a database from production to local (test)machine. I've done this several times without problem, but during thelast few days, the primary keys have failed to export. Would anyoneknow what options might keep the keys from exporting?Thanks,Louis
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to help an individual with a MS Query.
In Excel 97 MS Query the script was written:
TO_CHAR(LABTRANS.STARTDATE, 'YYYY') AS YEAR
In Excel XP I can run an existing Query and it returns the data as expected, but when I view the query it is:
TO_CHAR(LABTRANS.STARTDATE, 'YYYY') AS 'YEAR'
However if I try to create a new query using XP MS Query then the AS YEAR or AS 'YEAR' will be removed by MS Query and my column header will now be:
TO_CHAR(LABTRANS.STARTDATE, 'YYYY')
Here are my examples:
MS Excel 97 Query
SELECT LABTRANS.LABORCODE, LABTRANS.REGULARHRS, LABTRANS.OTHRS, LABTRANS.OTSCALE, LABTRANS.STARTDATE, LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE, VALUELIST.VALDESC,
TO_CHAR(LABTRANS.STARTDATE, 'YYYY') AS 'YEAR'
FROM MAXIMO.LABTRANS LABTRANS, MAXIMO.VALUELIST VALUELIST
WHERE LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE = VALUELIST.VALUE
AND (LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE IN (SELECT VALUE FROM VALUELIST WHERE LISTNAME = 'LTTYPE' AND MAXVALUE = 'NON-WORK'))
AND LABTRANS.LABORCODE IN (SELECT LABORCODE FROM LABOR WHERE LABOR.TYPE = 'CUPE' AND LABOR.CREWID IS NOT NULL AND LABOR.LA9 = 'N' AND LABOR.LA16 = 'WW' OR LABORCODE = '210308') AND VALUELIST.MAXVALUE = 'NON-WORK' ORDER BY LABTRANS.STARTDATE
MS Excel XP Query
SELECT LABTRANS.LABORCODE, LABTRANS.REGULARHRS, LABTRANS.OTHRS, LABTRANS.OTSCALE, LABTRANS.STARTDATE, LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE, VALUELIST.VALDESC,
TO_CHAR(LABTRANS.STARTDATE, 'YYYY')
FROM MAXIMO.LABTRANS LABTRANS, MAXIMO.VALUELIST VALUELIST
WHERE LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE = VALUELIST.VALUE
AND (LABTRANS.TRANSTYPE IN (SELECT VALUE FROM VALUELIST WHERE LISTNAME = 'LTTYPE' AND MAXVALUE = 'NON-WORK'))
AND LABTRANS.LABORCODE IN (SELECT LABORCODE FROM LABOR WHERE LABOR.TYPE = 'CUPE' AND LABOR.CREWID IS NOT NULL AND LABOR.LA9 = 'N' AND LABOR.LA16 = 'WW' OR LABORCODE = '210308') AND VALUELIST.MAXVALUE = 'NON-WORK' ORDER BY LABTRANS.STARTDATE
In Excel XP, no matter what I put in the AS part of the statement when I execute the script it runs and removes the AS part from the statement. This only happens when I run the script from MS Query, if I stay in Excel and just refresh the data, then it works fine.
I did not have this problem in Excel 97.
Any suggestions?
I have two practice tables I have created and want to export the values of one into the source table. I want to know if I can export into a table and have the destination table automatically give a primary key value to a record? I haven't been able to figure this out even after fiddling with the "Enable identity insert" checkbox under the Column Mappings tab. I have created source tables with and without primary keys and neither works because of the fact that I need to have a value for a primary key in order to INSERT into the destination.
Do I have to copy the source records into a staging table and assign the PK values myself by hand? This can't be the answer.

Hi,
I'm trying to import a semi-comma separated text file into a SQL db. I have a field in the text file that contains decimal number. As a decimal separator it's used a comma (15,35). When i use a DTS package to create a destination table and import all rows, the field is created as a float field. In this field the decimal comma is removed so the number in SQL becomes 1535. If I change the decimal separator to (.) i works OK. But I need to get it work with comma as decimal separator. In the DTS package the field form the text file is recognised as varchar (8000). Any ideas?

I am storing formatted data (including spaces and line breaks) in a single field in a table.
When I run a report on that field, the preview of the report is automatically removing all the extra spaces and line breaks, making the report unreadable.
When exporting the report to PDF or printing it, it shows the line breaks and spaces as expected.
Does anyone know how to make the report preview show the spaces and line breaks?
Hi all,
Can anyone suggest me on Adding primary key to a table which has already a primary key.

I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code:
SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName,
People_tbl.LastName, People_tbl.[Parent ID]
FROM People_tbl RIGHT OUTER JOIN
Student_ind ON People_tbl.[Family ID] = Student_ind.[Family ID]
WHERE (People_tbl.LastName = @Enter_LastName) AND (People_tbl.FirstName = @Enter_FirstName)
Previously same records exists in table having primary key and table having foreign key . we have faced 7 records were lost from primary key table but same record exists in foreign key table.

Hi i have set up two very simple tables, I want a user to be able to create a basic account ( data stored in User_Profile table with Id set as the Primery Key as Identity) I
want the user to be able to be able to return to their account at a later date
and then post multiple reviews of different bands they have seen at a later date.
I kept the tables in my example very simple so I could get my head
around the concept, but generally, I want to connect the Id (PK) value in
User_Profile table to the User_Id filed in the User_Review table,
so every review that user writes, will be connected directly to their Id.
Any help you could give would be fantastic a i have no idea where to start!!!
User_Profile
Id int, ( as primary Identity Key)
Name
City
Country
I have a second table called User Reviews
User_Revews
Revew_Id int , ( as primary Identity Key)
User_Id int, ( I want this to contain the Id value in
the User profile Table)
Review_Details
Thanks

Hi,
I have a Users table that I use for membership. I am using username varchar(30) as the primary key for this table since username will always be unique.
The question I have is regarding how SQL Server actually stores data:
I see that when I add users, they are always stored alphabetically sorted on username.
I was expecting that all users will appear on the users table in the order they were added.
Example: I have 3 users (john, jonah, wilson). Now I added 4 user with username='bob'
If I execute select * from users, it returns me (bob, john, jonah, wilson). Look bob has become the first row of the table.
My question: Is Sql server moving 3 older rows to make room for 'bob' and it is also rebuilding part of the index due this new username 'bob'?
If this is the case, then it will have big impact if I have 100K users and I add one user that becomes firstrow. In that case 99,999 rows will have to move.
Bottom line, insert, delete will be very expensive.
I know sql server keeps data physically sorted on PK. But I am concerned here since rows are losing the order in which they were inserted.
Thanks
There is a restriction that we must have only one primary key per table. We can have composite primary key by defining primary key over 2 or more columns. Actually,, a primary key uniquely defines the table and if we have two or more columns which follow unique and not null features why can't we have two primary keys?? I want to know what is the main reason behind having only one primary key in a table??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI ran into a table that is used a lot. Well less than100,000 records. Maybe not a lot of records but i believethis table is used often. The table has 26 fields, 9 indexesbut no Primary Key at all!There are no table relationships defined in this database, noNatural keys, only Surrogate keys in the database.1- Maybe an odd question but is it normal to have 1/3 of thetable's fields as indexes? Is this a valid question or it reallydoesn't matter if you have 9 indexes if they are appropriate to beindexes?2- Below is the DDL of the indexes (Is DDL the appropriate termto describe the indexes?) Without going into too technical aboutwhat the table is, what relationships it has with other tables,would you be able to tell if the indexes are good, bad, too many,etc?3- If i open the table in DESIGN view in SQL EM, i don't seethe Primary key icon. Yet here i see the words "PRIMARY KEYNONCLUSTERED". Does this mean UNIQUENO is actually some typeof primary key?

I'm trying to find the primary key on a given table in SQL Server 2000 using SQL. I'm querying the sysobjects table to find a given table, and then querying the sysindexes table. I've ALMOST found what I'm looking for. I see the indexes and columns etc. on the tables in the database, I just don't see the field that indicates that the index is the primary key.
Can anyone help?
