Transact SQL :: Method To Generate Insert Statements For Data In A Table
May 30, 2013
I have a database which will be generated via script. However there are some tables with default data that need to exist on the database.I was wondering if there could be a program that could generate inserts statments for the data in a table.I know about the import / export program that comes with SQL but it doesnt have an interface that lets you copy the insert script and values into an SQL file (or does it?)
I had to enable identity_insert on a bunch of tables and I have already done that. Now I need to modify my insert into select * from statements to include column list names along with identity columns for select as well as insert statements. The DDL is same but they are both different databases.There are almost 100 tables that it needs to be modified. Is there a way we can generate scripts for insert and select for each individual table along with their column lists including the identity column?
I am trying to generate a script to drop 15 tables which have dependencies across the database. Is there a script that could generate the drop stataments based on the child table first , parent table last strategy?
I'd I have a problem I'd like to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statementsthat will create my table and insert data into the table.I can use the scripting feature in Enterprise Manager to generate CREATETABLE scripts.Is there a script I can run that will generate INSERT statements so I caninclude sample data.Thanks
I have an SQL data source on my page and I select "Table". On the next screen I pick the fields I want to show. Then I click the "Advanced" button because I want to allow Inserts, updates and deletes. But its all greyed out abd I can't check this option. The UID in the connection string I am connecting under has the correct permissions in SQL server to do inserts, update and deletes too. Anyone know why it would be greyed out? The connectionstring property in the aspx code is dynamic but this shouldn't be the reason because I have used this before with success
I need to write some insert statements, 1 per table, ~100 tables, all having the approximante form:
Select Into TableA Select * From TableB
Except that I need explicit statements:
Select Into TableA Col1, Col2, Col3, ... ColN Values ...
The reason is that I need to preserve the current identity values (it's a replication setup scenario). I can set Identity_Insert On, but then it wants the explicit column names and values.
Is there a wizard or utility that will generate the statements for me? With 100 tables in the db, I'm not looking forward to writing it all :-)
TIA, Arthur
PS. Given that it's Easter weekend, if you have an answer could you please e me directly? Thanks!
I rememeber they used to have this option to generate data script for the table in SQL 2000, but I can not find it in SQL 2005. I need to move one table from one database to another, but I need to generate SQL Insert Statements...
I am wanting to fire-off an email with the failed jobs anytime they are deposited into a table. My syntax fires off an email even when the table does not contain data, it just sends a blank email. this will only generate an email if teh table contains data?
if exists (Select from FailedJobs) exec msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail @profile_name = 'DatabaseMail' @recipients = 'asdfasdfsdf@aafas.com' @from_address = 'asdfasdfacasca@cc.com' @query = 'Select * from failedjobs' @subject = 'List Of Failed Jobs' @attach_query_result_as_file = 1;
How are you guys doing? Hope all is well. This is my problem...I accidentally deleted a bunch of my SQL scripts and would like to generate the INSERT statements from Management Studio. I am currently using SQLExpress. Is there a way I can accomprish my task? Kindly advise.
How to create insert statements of the data from a table for top 'n' rows. I know we can create using generate scripts wizard, but we can't customize the number of rows. In my scenario i got a database with 10 tables where every table got millions of records, but the requirement is to sample out only top 10000 records from each table.
I am planning to generate table CREATE statements from GENERATE Scripts wizard and add this INSERT STATEMENT at the bottom.
EX : INSERT [dbo].[table] ([SERIALID], [BATCHID] VALUES (126751, '9100278GC4PM1', )
I have a table which I would like to export to a series of insert statements (in a file maybe). Is this possible somehow?
Alternatively, I could use an existing xml document which contains table metadata (table name, column names,types etc) to transfer data from these particular columns to another database replica.
I am using SQL 2012 SE. I have 2 databases say A and B with same structure and relationships. There are 65 tables in each database. A is already replicating data to database C for 35 tables. Now I need to move data from A to B which is greater than getdate()-1 everyday for all the tables and once the move is done I need to delete this data from A. And samething the next day. Since this is for 65 tables its challenging to identify the insert order. Once the insert order is identified the delete order will be the reverse of it.
Is there a tool or any SP that could generate the insert order script? The generate scripts data only is generating the entire data and these databases are almost 400GB. So I thought of generating a schema only script and then create an empty database with it and then generate data only to identify the order of insert. But it wont generate anything since there is no data.
I want to insert the data from temp table to other table. Only condition is, it needs to sorted based on tool number and tool date. For example if we have ten records for tool number 1000, it should be order by tool number and then based on tool_dt. Both tables doesn't have any primary keys. Please find below my code. I removed all the unnecessary columns for simple understanding. INSERT INTO tool_summary (tool_nbr, tool_dt) select tool_nbr, tool_dt from #tool order by tool_nbr, tool_dt...But this query is not working as expected. Data is getting shuffled.
I am still learning T-SQL .Lets consider the table below, ID 1-3 shows our purchase transactions from various Vendors and ID 4-6 shows our payments to them
Table 1 - VendorTransactions
ID PARTY AMOUNT VOUCHER --------------------------------------- 1 A 5000 Purchase 2 B 3000 Purchase 3 C 2000 Purchase
4 A 3000 Payment 5 B 1000 Payment 6 C 2000 Payment 7 A 1000 Payment
Now we have a blank table Table 2 - Liabilities
ID PARTY AMOUNT
I want that SQL should look for each individual party from Table 1 and Calculate TOTAL PURCHASE and TOTAL PAYMENTS and then deduct TOTAL PAYMENTS from TOTAL PURCHASE so we get the remaining balance due for each party and then add the DIFFERENCE AMOUNT alongwith PARTY to the TABLE 2 so I can get the desired result like below
ID PARTY AMOUNT ------------------------- 1 A 1000 2 B 2000 3 C 0
Now i am trying to insert a duplicate copy test by passing testId..Here is my sp
if not EXISTS(SELECT testName from tblTest WHERE UPPER(@testName) = UPPER(@testName)) BEGIN INSERT INTO tblTest SELECT @userId, testName,duration,totalQuestion,termsCondition,0,GETUTCDATE(),GETUTCDATE() from tblTest WHERE id=@testId SET @insertedTestId=@@identity INSERT INTO tblTestQuestion SELECT @insertedTestId,question,0,GETUTCDATE(),GETUTCDATE() from tblTestQuestion WHERE testId=@testId END
how to insert in answer table as one question can be multiple answers.
TABLE1 ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . so on --------------------------------------- 1 2 Alex 500 2 5 Jones 600 3 2 Ales 400
and we have TABLE 2
ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . . so on
In both the Tables ID Field is Identity Field and rest all the columns are identical in both the tables.I want to perform a query in such a way that SQL Should,
1) Remove all data from TABLE2 First 2) Select those records from TABLE1 where Roll = 2 3) Then, Insert the results to TABLE 2
So we should get the result similar to below:
ID Roll Name Amount . . . . . . . so on --------------------------------------- 1 2 Alex 500 3 2 Ales 400
I have 5 different tables with same structure. Each table has an account column and another column count. I am trying to generate a report based of the columns in each table. Account is same in all tables with same account numbers but count will be different.
Anyone know if there is method that can insert all record from a tablein an MS Access 2000 database to a table in MS SQL Server 2000database by a SQL statement? (Therefore, I can execute the statementin my program)--Posted via http://dbforums.com
I have a question regarding generating SQL script from a database. If you use SQL Server Management Express, it lets you generate SQL script that can be used to recreate table structure, stored procedures, etc. But it does not include the actual data stored in the tables.
Is it possible to export data from tables to SQL insert statements? Got SQL 2005 developer, visual studio 2005, and Visio enterprise architect, if that makes any difference. I already found this tool but it costs money.
There is a valuable script out there that will take the rows from a table and display INSERT STATEMENTS.
Good thing is this script converts the data to HEXADECIMAL ( or some other ) and we don't have to worry about dealing with apostrophies embedded in varchar fields.
Could someone tell me how to get the data from all tables of the database in the form of insert script? We are moving our databse from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. The scripts for the Database, Tables, Views , Procedures, Functions have been obtained and it is only the data that is remaining. Some are small tables with 5 to 6 columns but there are some with 50 odd columns. A friend of mine told me about a procedure that returns a dataset with INSERT statements by passing a table name as a parameter. Such procedure would be of great help.
So I know that each employee should have 2 Type 1's and 4 Type 2's. I hope that makes sense, I'm trying to change my data because ours is very proprietary.
I need to identify employees who do not have all their stages and list the stages they are missing. The final report should only have employees and the associated missing types and stages.
I do a count by employee to see how many types they have to identify the ones that don't have all the types and stages.
My count would look something like this:
EmployeeNumber Type Total 100, 1, 2 100, 2, 2 200, 1, 1 200 1, 2
So I know that employee 100 should have 2 more Type 2's and employee 200 should have 1 more Type 1 and 2 more Type 2's based on the required list.
The problem I'm having is taking that required list and joining to my list of employees with missing data and pulling from it the types and stages that are missing by employee. I thought I could get a list of the employees that are missing information and right join it to the required list where the missing records would be nulls. But, that doesn't work because some employees do have the required information and so I'm not getting any nulls returned.
We are using MS SQL Server 2008. I am running a batch job which deletes 21 days older records(6-7 million records). But daily we have transaction is going on in the database. When the delete occurs, all the insert statements got blocked and waits till the delete statement to complete. May I know why the blocking occurs?
ALTER function [Event].[DetermineTrackTime](@TrialID varchar(max)) returns int as begin Declare @ret int; Declare @EnterVolumeTime int; Declare @ExitVolumeTime int; Declare @StartTrackTime int;
[code]....
I am getting the following error on line 75:
Select statements included within a function cannot return data to a client.
This is happening when declaring TrackUpdateCursor
The compiler has no problem with the VolumeTimesCursor. What is causing this and what can I do about it?
I am trying to take an entire MS SQL database and put it in an sql file. I have succesfully copied the tables into an sql file by highlighting the tables in enterprise manager and choosing 'generate sql script'.
That gives me the structure, but now I would like the data (in insert statements). I have looked in enterprise manager's export wizard and sql analyzer to no avail. There seem to be a lot of options for exporting data except this one! Please point me in the right direction.
At the end of the day, I would like to be able to put everything in a text file. Then, should I have problems, I can just copy my text into query analyzer and have a brand new database.
Hi can anyone help me with the format of my stored procedure below. I have two tables (Publication and PublicationAuthors). PublicaitonAuthors is the linking table containing foreign keys PublicaitonID and AuthorID. Seeming as one Publication can have many authors associated with it, i need the stored procedure to create the a single row in the publication table and then recognise that multiple authors need to be inserted into the linking table for that single PublicationID. For this i have a listbox with multiple selection =true. At the moment with the storedprocedure below it is creating two rows in PublicaitonID, and then inserting two rows into PublicationAuthors with only the first selected Author from the listbox??? Can anyone help???ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedureTest2 @publicationID Int=null,@typeID smallint=null, @title nvarchar(MAX)=null,@authorID smallint=null AS BEGIN TRANSACTION SET NOCOUNT ON DECLARE @ERROR Int --Create a new publication entry INSERT INTO Publication (typeID, title) VALUES (@typeID, @title) --Obtain the ID of the created publication SET @publicationID = @@IDENTITY SET @ERROR = @@ERROR --Create new entry in linking table PublicationAuthors INSERT INTO PublicationAuthors (publicationID, authorID) VALUES (@publicationID, @authorID) SET @ERROR = @@ERROR IF (@ERROR<>0) ROLLBACK TRANSACTION ELSE COMMIT TRANSACTION
