I have to delete a ton of data from a SQL table. I have a unique identifier called the version. I would like to use if not in these versions then delete. I tried to using the statement below, but learned the hard way that it created an error this is the message I got....
Msg 9002, Level 17, State 4, Line 3...
The transaction log for database 'MonthEnds' is full due to 'ACTIVE_TRANSACTION'.
I was reading about truncate, I am not sure how I would do this or how I would setup the statement.
Delete Products where versions were not in (('48459CED-871F-4971-B888-5083990332BC','D550C8D3-58C7-4C74-841D-1C1675F19AE3','C77C7817-3F04-4145-98D3-37BB1610DB35', '21FE83FA-476D-4604-80EF-2ED57DEE2C16','F3B50B81-191A-4D71-A406-011127AEFBE1','EFBD48E7-E30F-4047-909E-F14DCAEA4181','BD9CCC41-D696-406B- 'C8BEBFBC-D362-4D0F-A555-B281FC2B3023','EFA64956-C2CF-41FC-8E21-F060597DAFCB','77A8DE56-6F7F-4490-8BED-AA6809B947EF','0F4C1E5F-B689-4DCB-
The data is automaticaly deleting from one perticular table at every night from last week onwords. I have created a delete trigger to find it out. But Nothing was recorded. There is no jobs except maintainance plans. Nothing in event viewer too. The database recovery model is simple. How can i solve this problem Please advise me to solve this problem
I have an entry form allowing customers to enter up to 15 skus (productid) at a time, so they can make a multiple order, instead of enteringone sku, then submitting it, then returing to the form to submit thesecond one, and so forth.From time to time, the sku they enter will be wrong, or discontiued, soit will not submit an order.Therefore, when they are done submitting their 15 skus through the orderform, I want a list showing them all of those skus that came back blank,or were not found in the database.I'm doing this by creating two tables. A shopping cart, which holds allthe skus that were returned, and a holding table, that holds all theskus that were submitted. I want to then delete all the skus in theholding page that match the skus in teh cart (because they are goodskus) which will then leave the unmatched skus in the holding table.I'll then scroll out the contents of the holding table, to show them theskus that were not found in the database.(confused yet?)So what I want to do is have some sql that will delete from the holdingtable where the sku = the sku in the cart. I've tried writing this, butit dosn't work.I tiried this delete from holding_table where sku = cart.skuI was hoping this would work, but it dosn't. Is there a way for me to dothis?Thanks!Bill*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
I can run a select to retrieve data using a prefix 'a' for the specific table involved. However when I try to run a delete using the same criteria it fails telling me
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1,.......Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'a'
The Select statement looks like:
select count(*) from schema.table a where a.customer_id=1234
The Delete looks like:
delete from schema.table a where a.customer_id=1234
What am I doing wrong here? and how can I prefix the table, because the command I want to run is much more complicated than the example above and it needs the prefix
Hi i have to delete the master table data without deleting the child table records,is there any solution for this, parent table has relation with the child table. regards vinod.t.v
I need to delete data from a particular table which has more than half a million records. The data needs to be deleted is more than 200,000 records from the table. What is the best way to delete the data from the table other than importing into a temporary table and performing the same operation?
Let me know if the strategy to be followed is okay.
1. Drop all the triggers 2. Drop all the indexes 3. Write a procedure with a loop setting ROWCOUNT to 1000 and delete the records. ( since if I try to delete all the rows it will give timeout error ) The above procedure will delete 1000 records for each batch inside the loop till it wipes out all the data for the specified condition. 4. Recreate Indexes and Triggers.
Please let me know if there are any other optimal solution.
I have a huge table with 4 primary keys on it. I need to delete the data from this table ( approx. 5.6 millions records to be deleted). It takes a hell lot of time to delete it by normal query. Can someone please suggest me a better way? Any help will be appreciated.
We are using SQL Server 2000 Standard ed, sp4 on Server 2000 Advanced.We have one table that is three times as large as the rest of the database.Most of the data is static after approximately 3-6 months, but we arerequired to keep it for 8 years. I would like to archive this table (A), butthere are complications.1. the only way to access the data is through the application (they areimages produced by the application-built on Power-Builder)2. there are multiple tables refrencing this table and vise-versa3. we restore the entire db to two other servers for testing and trainingregularly4. there might be more complications that have not been thought ofCurrently, our only plan is to setup a seperate server with a copy of this dbon it and the application. Leave only the tables necessary to access the data,and if this 'archive' works, remove from production the data from the table Aand all references to the table A from rows on the other tables.I mentioned #3 because someone mentioned a third party tool that may be ableto pull the data from the table, archive it elsewhere, and at the same time,place a 'pointer' in the table to the new storage location. The tool theymentioned only works on Oracle and we have not explored beyond that yet.I am ready to explore ideas and suggestions; I am still new to the DBA world,I am out of ideas.Thank you!--Message posted via SQLMonster.comhttp://www.sqlmonster.com/Uwe/Forum...eneral/200607/1

I have a table 300+GB. it holds 10 years of Data. I need to delete 5 years of data and put it to another server so I can have more space.
If I delete 5 years of data, Transaction log gets so huge and size of the database even gets bigger because of the .ldf file which even gets bigger! I think I can shrink the log file and the data file. Is this the best way to do it?
I have deleted nearly 30 million rows from a table. But however when I used the sp_spaceused command to calculate the data occupied by the table I don't see any difference in the data size of the table. In fact the data has increased to few MBs after the deletion, but not much.
I have a requirement to delete 1 Million records from a table having 10 Million data and it's being queried on 24/7 basis (don't have a downtime). how can I achieve that?
This program gets the values of A and B passed in. They are for table columns DXID and CODE. The textbox GET1 is initialized to B when the page is loaded. When I type another value in GET1 and try to save it, the original initialized value gets saved and not the new value I just typed in. A literal value, like "222" saves but the new GET1.TEXT doesn't.
I am trying to delete tables from data where the ModifiedDates older than 9 years in AdventureWorks2012 database . I get console notified that foreign keys are dropped but the delete statement is throwing errors. I am sure that somewhere the key constraints are not getting altered, but i'm not able to figure it out as i'm a relative beginner to T-SQL. The error and code:
The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_SalesOrderHeaderSalesReason_SalesReason_SalesReasonID". The conflict occurred in database "AdventureWorks2012", table "Sales.SalesOrderHeader [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.SMO") | Out-Null $option_drop = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.ScriptingOptions; $option_drop.ScriptDrops = $true;
HiI'm having problems following the tutorial on creating a data access layer - http://www.asp.net/learn/dataaccess/tutorial01cs.aspx?tabid=63 - when I try to compile in Visual Studio 2005 I get namespace could not be found. I followed exactly the tutorial - I created a dataset and added this code in my aspx page. <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" CssClass="DataWebControlStyle"> <HeaderStyle CssClass="HeaderStyle" /> <AlternatingRowStyle CssClass="AlternatingRowStyle" />In my C# file I added these lines... using NorthwindTableAdapters; <<<<<this is the problem - where does this come from? protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { ProductsTableAdapter productsAdapter = new ProductsTableAdapter(); GridView1.DataSource = productsAdapter.GetProducts(); GridView1.DataBind(); }Thanks in advance
I don't know if the question has been nailed down. Aside from deleting tables, can we delete the *content* of data within the tables. It doesn't seem crazy that, if you can pull in data from a feed then you should be able to remove the content out again (without also destroying the user's meta-data work ). Reasons for this include:
- Security (a user may not have rights to see *my* data and should go refresh their own) - Size (workbook doesn't need to have GB's of irrelevant data saved to disk in a workbook if it was just useful during development phase to a pre-production data feed) - Bad data (pre-production data feed is not good data) - User-friendliness (data feed was refreshed 2 years ago and workbook was saved to file server. Users shouldn't be presented with irrelevant data, but should get empty pivot tables until they go do their refresh)
Obviously Excel internally knows how to clear out PowerPivot data, given the prompt shown here: [URL] ....
But how does a user initiate this on their own (corruption aside)?
Previous time this question was asked, without a real resolution: [URL] ....
We are running SQL Server 2005 express on Windows 2003. The database server gets significant amounts of data.
Because of the 4GB data limit we have a daily cron task which goes through and deletes data older then 90 days.
We would like a way to archive this data instead of deleting it. Is there any way to take data and compress it and store it in a different way, so that if needed, customers can query directly out from the compressed data? Cleary querying from compressed would be slower but that is ok.
Any other solutions that would allow us to archive data instead of deleting it? Thanks.

I want to run that data through some substrings etc. and dump it into another table like this:
//THIS TABLE WILL BE WHERE WE PUT THE RESULTING DATA FROM //EXECUTING THE SUBSTRs AND OTHER FUNCTIONS TO PREP THE DATA FOR BASIS. CREATE TABLE ISIS_DATA_PREP (ISIS_STATUS_ID VARCHAR(15), STATUS VARCHAR(5), STUDENT_ID NUMERIC(15) CONSTRAINT ISIS_DATA_PREP_STUDENT_ID_PK PRIMARY KEY, LAST_NAME VARCHAR(25), FIRST_NAME VARCHAR(20), MID_INIT CHAR(1), CLASS NUMERIC(2), EXPIR_DATE VARCHAR(10), SEX CHAR(1), BIRTHDAY VARCHAR(10), CAT NUMERIC(3), SCHOOL VARCHAR(5))
Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1 Error converting data type varchar to numeric.
QUESTION #1 - Is there an equivalent in MS SQL 2000 to Oracle's TONUM function?
So, to get around this I change all the fields in the receiving table (ISIS_DATA_PREP) to a varchar so there is no conversion necessary at this time.
Now I get this message:
Server: Msg 8152, Level 16, State 9, Line 1 String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated.
I look up this error on MS's knowledge base and get something along these lines:
...Because the truncated string is shorter than the maximum length, the char column that does not allow a null value and the char variable is padded with trailing blanks while the varchar column will not store trailing blanks....
QUESTION #2 -
What am I doing wrong on the field structure on the receiving table of the input command? I experimented by setting all fields to VARCHAR(25) so it would accept more data and not truncate, but still get the same message.
QUESTION #3 - My main question was for the syntax for INSERTing into a table from another table the rows in MS SQL. Basically copying the data. I have it for Oracle, but MS SQL doesn't seem to take it in that format.
Sorry for the absolutely massive post. : ) And thanks for any feedback.
i have a table that i think is bad - how do i delete the table? also i want to copy this same table from another database - can i use enterprise manager to copy the same table in place of the deleted table?
I have a table which consist of 6,185 rows and from this table I want to delete 427 rows. I have placed the 427 rows in a separate table. So how do I delete these 427 from the original table(6185 rows).
I should also mention that the table does not have a primary key so I was thinking about something like this but it didn't work
where exists (select h.CardNumber ,h.ref_no ,h.tran_date ,h.tran_val from test427 h where( h.ref_no=o.ref_no and h.CardNumber = o.CardNumber and h.tran_date =o.tran_date and h.tran_val =o.tran_val ))
I have a package which loads data from a flat file (csv) to 4 tables in a database. Now, the load is incremental.
I want to clear the data of all 4 tables(in the database) before loading the data from flat file everytime.How can i do this? Iam using 4 Oledb Destinations, 1 multicast, 1 source component to do this. Also can it happen like a transaction? because if it deletes the existing data and couldnt load new data there will be a problem!.how to avoid this?
I am trying to delete from a SQL table using two arguments, I currently use the following on the aspx page: <ItemTemplate><asp:LinkButton ID="cmdDeleteJob" runat="server" CommandName="CancelJob" Text="Delete" CssClass="CommandButton" CommandArgument='<%# Bind("Type_of_service") %>' OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this item?');"></asp:LinkButton></ItemTemplate> and then I use the following on the aspx.vb page: If e.CommandName = "CancelJob" Then Dim typeService As Integer = CType(e.CommandArgument, Integer) Dim typeDesc As String = "" Dim wsDelete As New page1 wsDelete.deleteAgencySvcs(typeService) gvTech.DataBind() I need to be able to pick up two CommandArguments.
in sql server 2000, I have a table that I have to write a script for to delete several columns in this table. I am finding that I have to use alter or drop keywords or a combination of the two but not sure because I have not done this before. I am googling this but finding all kinds of other information that I dont' need to know. I dont have rights on this table so I cannot do this manually. I have to create the script and send it on to someone else. If anyone can provide a good script example that I can use to delete unwanted columns it would be a great thing. Thanks.
Hello everybody, I have problem deleting row from same table using below trigger
CREATE TRIGGER [tDeleteDomain] ON dbo.iMS_Domains FOR DELETE AS IF @@RowCount > 1 BEGIN ROLLBACK TRAN RAISERROR ('You can only delete one domain at a time.', 16, 10) END DECLARE@DomainID int SELECT@DomainID = ID FROMDELETED DELETE FROMiMS_Domains WHEREAliasFor = @DomainID
If I am using this trigger I am getting the below error Server: Msg 217, Level 16, State 1, Procedure tDeleteid, Line 16 Maximum stored procedure, function, trigger, or view nesting level exceeded (limit 32)
int1 must have the value 1 int2 must have the value 1 int3 must have the value 0 and now we get to the difficult part - first character in the field [Cost No] have to be different from the letter 'B'. [Cost No] have the datatype varchar(20)
I expected the code to look something like this: DELETE Table1 FROM Table 1 WHERE ([Int1] = 1) AND ([Int2] = 1) AND ([Int3] = 0) AND ((LEFT([Cost No]), 1) <> 'B')
But I get this error message: The left function requires 2 arguments
What am I doing wrong and what should the right code look like?
I have edited the aspnet_Users_CreateUser stored procedure so that the UserId that is created when a new user is created is copied to a UserId field in another table. However, when I use the website administration tool to delete users that have been created, it gives me an error saying the delete statement conflicted with the reference constraint. I then added the following code in the aspnet_Users_DeleteUser procedure.... IF ((@TablesToDeleteFrom & 16) <> 0 AND (EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE (name = N'vw_tt') AND (type = 'V')))) BEGIN DELETE FROM dbo.userclassset WHERE @UserId = UserId SELECT @ErrorCode = @@ERROR, @RowCount = @@ROWCOUNT IF( @ErrorCode <> 0 ) GOTO Cleanup IF (@RowCount <> 0) SELECT @NumTablesDeletedFrom = @NumTablesDeletedFrom + 1 hdhd END This code was then added to the function at the end which deletes the data from the aspnet_Users table when everything else has been removed (@TablesToDeleteFrom & 16) <> 0 AND Now when I delete a user in the website admin tool, it "deletes" (with no error) the user from the list but doesnt actually physically delete it from the database. Any ideas?
