View 6 RepliesHow can I bulk remove spaces within table names in the whole db?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to alter my all tables to change the name of all columns.
I need this because all column names were created with space and I want to remove the space for future work .
For example – In Table Customer there is a column name [Cust_Id ] and I want to change it with [Cust_Id]
I am trying to find the Table and column names from the below.
Is there a way i can get table name and column name from query_plan column?
SELECT TOP 100 text, query_plan,cp.plan_handle
FROM sys.dm_exec_cached_plans cp
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(cp.plan_handle)
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_query_plan(cp.plan_handle)
WHERE objtype='Adhoc'
SELECT TOP 100 text, query_plan, cp.plan_handle, qs.last_execution_time
FROM sys.dm_exec_cached_plans cp
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(cp.plan_handle)
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_query_plan(cp.plan_handle)
JOIN sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs ON cp.plan_handle = qs.plan_handle
WHERE objtype='Adhoc'
I have below output:

Need to know a mode whereby somehow I can every time insert an additional column in a table while bulk inserting data to an existing table from a new flat file thus identifying the file from which, or the time when, the data was inserted in an existing table.

I got a table which gets populated by stor proc where we pivot the Sum(Balance of mortgage) by YYYYMM for the whole duration of the loan term.
I have a requirement to rename the column header where the previous month end balance period be renamed to P0.
if we run the report today, then the balance as at 31/09 should show under column P0 which now shows under 201509 and then P0 keeps shifting with each month run.
How do I dynamically rename the column headers.
I want to create a raw SQL resultset for outputting to Excel with some artificial headers transposed over the top of the 2nd part of the Union's column names. The first part of the Union will be the Headers. Like this, the space to the left of the topmost columns is preferably empty ....
COL 1 COL2 COL3 COL4 etc. BEH BIG BPL etc.

I just want the text above as a 3 line header and there won't be any values obviously. Then the 2nd query will be joined to the above with a Union all. The 2nd query has all the same column names as what will be given in the first set above. What is the SQL Syntax for doing so? Do I have to use a from clause?
I try to import data with bulk insert. Here is my table:
CREATE TABLE [data].[example](
col1 [varchar](10) NOT NULL,

1 SQLCHAR 0 10 "@|@" 3 Col3 ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 6 "@|@" 4 Col4 Latin1_General_CI_AS

The first column should store double (in col2 and col3) in my table
My file:

Get error:
Msg 4823, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot bulk load. Invalid column number in the format file "R:cfgexample.fmt".
I changed some things as:
used ";" and "," as column delimiter
changed file type from UNIX to DOS and adjusted the format file with "

Removed this line from format file

Nothing works ....
Hi there.
Sorry 'bout my bad english.
Is there any possibility, to change the current server name from the stuctureview in the Enterprise Manger. I'm registering a lot of online-servers from my customers. The remote servername is fixed of course, but I want to change it local, to explain it a little bit better
(e.g. "W2KSQLSRV" -> "CustomerXY")
Can someone give me a hint, please?
Thanx.
Hi
I was wondering if anyone has an idea of how we could find the table names and column names of the tables in our Sql server database at runtime/dynamically given our connection string? Please let me know.
Thanks.
Trying to find tsql for TRIGGER which will send me email, if someone rename database in test/dev environment. I found it for CREATE and DROP database trigger but could not find for RENAME database.

I am using the compact edition on a desktop using VS2005 as well as SQL Server Management Studio. None of those tools allow me to rename a column or rename a table. Can someone point me a tool the runs on the desktop (as opposed to running on a CE device) that allows me to do the renaming?
Thanks

Hello,
I'm just learning SSIS and I've hit my first bump. I am doing a bulk import from a tab delimited text file to an empty sql table that has a Idendity column defined. How do I tell the bulk insert task to skip that column when inserting from the text file. If I remove the identity column it imports the data fine, but I want to create the indentity column in the table too.
Thanks.
I need to create the following table in reporting services
PRODUCT April March Feb
2008 2007 2008 2007 2008 2007
chair 8 9 7 4 4 4
table 3 4 5 6 4 6
My problem is the month names are a column in the dataset, but I dont know how to get it to fill as column headers???
Thanks in advance!!!
I'm struggeling a bit with this one, goal is to show the first 3 characters of the name and replace the remaining characters with *** stars. Also the number of stars needs to match the lenght of the name as in the example above.I've tried:
REPLACE([ColName],
substring([Colname],
4,
LEN([colname]
)),
'*')
I have a number of tables, that I need to copy with data intact, about once a year.
Let's say the table name is 'dbo.MyTable'
I just do a SQL Statement like this:
SELECT * INTO dbo.MyTable'BU06032015 FROM dbo.MyTable
How can I automate this so that it does the Select Into statement and automatically adds the 'BU' + the current date?
I am able to get a list of columns in a table from the query I have written shown below:
select sc.name ColumnNames,st.name TableName from sys.columns sc inner join sys.tables st on sc.object_id=st.object_id
order by st.name
But I am looking for the resultset with the format below:
TableName Columns
employee employeeid,employeename,employeesalary
order orderid,address,price
I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
- SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.
- SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will
1. take a parameter
2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string
3. Execute that string as SQL
4. Get a return value from that SQL statement
5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.
While looking forward to design a multi-columnar cross-tab query I am anxious to know if there could be a way to change the default names of the pivot columns? In other words for the query like the following can there be a way to apply anAS type command to reflect some other names, instead of having the four dates in heading? Something like Month_A, Month_B?
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT
X.REP_DT,
X.CUST_ID
AMOUNT_1
FROM
X) P
PIVOT (SUM(AMOUNT_1) FOR REP_DT IN ([2014-12-31], [2015-01-31], [2015-02-28], [2015-03-31])) PVT_01
