I've got a csv that I am trying to import into a SQL Server (2000)
table through an adp (Access 2000). The form used gives the user the
ability to browse for a file, then will import the file into a temp
table for processing using this vba code:
When I run the import through the code, the import is dropping any
values less than one (apparently). I've got a couple of columns that
have .5 for the value, but these are brought in as 0. Decimal places
are being imported (ex. 532.28 comes in correctly as 523.28)
I've tried changing the datatype in the temp table, but that doesn't
seem to make a difference.
I've tried letting the import create a new table, but that doesn't fix
the problem either.
If I import the file directly through the adp (right click - import)
all of the values are brought in correctly.
Anyone know how to fix this, or an alternative? I did some reading on
bcp and Bulk Copy, but I couldn't see an easy way to allow for the
variable path name to the file.
hi, I want to enter numbers like this and do not know what kind of data type the field should hold, 1 5/8 , 3/4 etc... I kept having error in sql sever to accept such data. Ali

Is there a way we can prevent a object owner from dropping his tables. Example:
There is a user called 'tom' who is given create table permissions, 'tom' creates the table completes his dev and then the table is moved into production where 'tom' is still the owner. However, in production, 'tom' does not have the create table privs. Because 'tom' is the owner of the table, he is still able to drop the table in production. This is what I am trying to avoid. I would like to retain 'tom' as the owner and want to take away his create/drop privs.

TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio ------------------------------
Drop failed for Job 'Maintenne Plan'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)

I have a table with multiple column and has millions of rows in it(say about 50 millions ) and its in production. What is the best way of dropping the a column from the table without impacting the systems performance. Remeber this table will be used some application to get some data out of it.
I think I am doing something wrong. I am trying to make the trigger fire when I want to drop the same trigger. For example I have the following trigger defined:
USE AdventureWorks2000
GO
CREATE TRIGGER Incheckstock
ON DATABASE
FOR DROP_TRIGGER
AS
PRINT 'You must disable Trigger "Incheckstock" to drop Trigger!'
ROLLBACK
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
ENABLE TRIGGER Incheckstock ON DATABASE
DROP TRIGGER Incheckstock
ON DATABASE
I created the trigger Incheckstock and i want to see if the same trigger fires itself if when i am trying to drop the trigger with the same name (kind of recursive one). Is this possible in SQL 2005?. If I asked a dumb question, please correct me.
I'm having a problem updating my Client profile table. I intially put the data in with the "INSERT" SQL command that part works great. but when I retrive the data to edit the profile it returns the correct details and phone numbers. The problem is when I use the "UPDATE" SQL command it saves all the data correctly except for the mobile phone number which it drops off the last number all the time. Field sizes etc are okay. Any help appreaciated
I guess nobodys heard of this? I'm using DTS to transform data to Excel spreadsheet. I have a DROP TABLE `data$` then a CREATE TABLE `data$` the old data is cleared but the new data is appended to the blank rows of the old data. So if I had 5 rows before now I have 10. And the new data has 5 blank rows before it.
I've tried deleting the excel file & replacing it with a new one. I've used the wizard thinking it was me but no good, it still happens.
I am using Access 2000 to link tables from SQL Server. The tables are linked using ODBC DSN`s. I am running a query to return some rows to Access, but once I have returned the rows, I want to drop the linked table connection to SQL Server, because it is locking a table on the server. I think I need to write a bit of VBA code, but I don`t know where to start. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
