Very New To Sql Server, Relationships
May 16, 2008
Hi, I'm slightly familiar with using access to do databasing, but I am now working with sql server and visual studio 2008 programming in vb.
This is probably very simple, but I am trying to call a table from a dataset into a datagrid, but the information in the table needs to be relative. This is why I need to create a relationship, however I am unsure how to. I'm not sure if this is done within the sql server or within vs2008 in vb? The tables I am trying to relate are Financial and Demographics with the PK and FK being Patient ID. Can someone please point me to an example or give me a simple one that will explain how I can do this?
Thanks!

I've been searching around for some info on how to set this up, but with no luck.I need to have a .sql file that will set up a few tables and these tables will have relationships and contraints.I can do this by hand in enterprise manager, but need to set up some procedures that will do the same thing.For instance, I can create the tables just fine.....CREATE TABLE students ( sId int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, studentId varchar(50) NOT NULL, course varchar(50) )
CREATE TABLE courses ( cId int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, course varchar(50) NOT NULL, sco varchar(50) )But, I need to set up relationships in there somehow.Once student may have many courses (one to many) and one course may have many sco's (one to many) SCO would be another table.Can someone point me to a good link that would show how to complete these procedures?Thanks all,Zath

I have created two tables and receive a "columns in table ... do not match an existing primary key or UNIQUE constraint." error message.
Table1: GOSMapping
PK: AuthInd (bigint)
PK: GLCode (nchar(8))
-both columns were set as PK simultaneously
Table2: GOSTracking
PK: AdjID
FK: AuthInd (bigint)
FK: GLCode (nchar(8))
I open Table2 in the designer and right click, then select Relationships. I choose both of the columns that are the PK in Table1, and set the exact fields as the FK in Table2. I get the message when trying to save this relationship. All data types are congruent, and the primary key has been set as the combination of the two PK columns in Table1. Any ideas?

I have taken on a contract to improve reporting for an old HR database that was developed using FoxPro (Visual FoxPro, I think) with the data stored in SQL Server 2000. There are no foreign keys in SQL Server 2000 so the relationships are maintained inside FoxPro.Is there a way of extracting the relationships from the FoxPro code and generate foreign keys in SQL Server, so that I can do proper design?

Ok, so I open up a book on beginning sql and it discusses relationships.There is something that appears wrong. I am not understanding how the book is describing the one to one relationship. In it's figure, it shows that the same agency can have two different artist id's. But according to it's definition of one to one list can be related from both tables.Can someone explain this further please?Thanks in advance.

How do you show many to many relationships in ASP.NET with datasources?
I can retrieve the information from the database easily but I can't manage to save that information into a variable so that i can then call for only information in the M2M table related to the ID Key I want. For example..1 <asp:Label ID="lblTestLabel" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "title_id") %>' Runat="server" />
2
3 <script language="VB" runat="server">
4 sub Page_Load(sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
5 Dim lblTitleID As Label = Repeater1.FindControl("lblTestLabel")
6 Response.Write(lblTitleID.text)
7 End Sub
8 </script>
When I try to run this script it dosn't work and I get the error:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
For line 6 of the code above. Is there a way to just retrieve information from a datasource without storing information into a label first?
PS: I use sqldatasource tags to retrieve information like:1 <asp:SqlDataSource ID="DataSet1" runat="server"
2 ConnectionString="Driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};server=localhost;database=;user=;pwd=;option=3;"
3 ProviderName="System.Data.Odbc"
4 SelectCommand="Select * from titles order by title_id">
5 </asp:SqlDataSource>

Can someone help me sort something out. Suppose we have two tables in a database.One is named Person, and one is named Birthday. Is this a many to many relationshipor a 1 to many relationship?
Person has many birthdays. Example. Joe Schmoe has a birthday for every year of his life. birthday(7/11/1976) has many People (Many people have a birthday on 7/11/1976.

Is there any easy way of getting all the relationships for the tables in aSQL server db? I've looked through Google and the Books online but I'm barely scratching the surface on the systables. I know I can go to each individual table and get the dependencies or even print out the diagram through Enterprise Manager but I really don't want to have to type out all the primary/foreign keys for 100+ tables. Any help on getting this data either through a 3rd party software or querying the systables would be great.

We have a table with approximately 150 colums and 2/3 of them are bit datatypes. We do not expect much activity on this table. Does it make sense to separate it into a few tables instead of 1 with one-to-one relationships? Will the join(s) significantly slow down our web application? Thank you

My hosting servers have "myLittleAdmin" installed. I am new to ms sql I have some experience with Access but I have never set up Relationships inside the database server. I have always just relied on my application logic to call the relations. What is the benefit to setting up relationships in sql, if any?

I am viewing tables in the ‘object explorer’- I can see the tables. If I open it up I can see columns, keys, constraints etc…
So I can see they key… can I tell which table/field the foreign key is connected to?

Hello,
I have 3 tables. Posts, PostsTags and Tags.
This is a many to many relationship.
So PostsTags has the following columns:
PostId (PK) and TagId (PK)
I always did that way in SQL 2005.
In some examples I see PostsTags have 3 columns:
PostTagId(PK), PostId (FK), TagId (FK)
Should I use it this way, instead?
Thanks,
Miguel

Is it possible to have 2 different databases and create relationships inbetween the two? I am thinking about way down the road and the size of the databases and I believe that I need to split my data into multiple databases to keep from running into the size limitations.

Hello!
I have a really small database in terms of number of objects, but very big in terms of data (possibly millions of records). I always try to design my databases to be in the 3rd normal form (at least I hope they are!), but sometimes (for databases consisting of just a few tables) maintaining M:N relationships looks like an over-bloated approach to me... Let's see an actual example. I have a table like this:
Code SnippetCreate table [Airfares]
(
[OriginCity] Char(3) NOT NULL,
[DestCity] Char(3) NOT NULL,
[FareDate] Datetime Default getdate() NOT NULL,
[Price] Decimal(9,2) Default 0 NOT NULL,
[PriceChange] Decimal(9,2) Default 0 NOT NULL,
[Wrong] Bit Default 0 NOT NULL,
Primary Key ([OriginCity],[DestCity],[FareDate])
)
go
Now, at first there also was an Airline nvarchar(50) field, which stored the airline name. But now the client requested to store fares for a few airlines if it's the same price and city pair. This way we can have 3 airlines offering the same price on the same itinerary for example. So I added a dictionary table called Airlines:
Code SnippetCreate table [Airlines]
(
[AirlineCode] Char(2) NOT NULL,
[Name] Nvarchar(50) NOT NULL,
Primary Key ([AirlineCode])
)
go
Now, there are two things I can do. We are obviously dealing with the M:N relationship type here. I can either add another nvarchar column in the first table, like Airlines nvarchar(255) and store something like 'AA,AB,AC' there - those would be airline codes. OR I could do it the proper way and create a cross-reference table which will connect both Airfares and Airlines tables (this will store as many records as there are airlines for that particular itinerary, offerring the same price):
Code SnippetCreate table [AirfareAirlines]
(
[AirlineCode] Char(2) NOT NULL,
[OriginCity] Char(3) NOT NULL,
[DestCity] Char(3) NOT NULL,
[FareDate] Datetime Default getdate() NOT NULL,
Primary Key ([AirlineCode],[OriginCity],[DestCity],[FareDate])
)
go
But this is starting to look overly complicated, isn't it? The pros of this are I'm going to get real relationships, referential integrity, etc., but cons are more difficult code to query all this. What would you do? Do we really need referential integrity everywhere? Are there times when we're better not using relationships? I have seen many programmers skip referential integrity before, which always made me think they are missing something important in a Relational Database Management System.

Ok - I am still a bit weak on SQL. My understanding of FK relationships in a database are to reinforce the data integrity - Correct? For example, does it make sure that the id given for SiteID does indeed exists. Can it link tables like JOIN in select statements? If not, is there any gains by creating them, such as performance?

I'm having some trouble working out how to query some data. Rather than explain up front, here's some examples of what I want to achieve:
*******************************************************
I've got a structure which looks vaguely like this:
[ANCESTORS]
Grandparent
Parent
Child
If limit by grandparents, then I only get the lineage for that particular grandparent. I.e.:
SELECT *
FROM [ANCESTORS]
( some sort of joins here )
Where Grandparent.Name = 'Cybill'
This would return all of the children of 'Cybill' and their children. Now, if I use the following query:
SELECT *
FROM [ANCESTORS]
( some sort of joins here )
Where Child.Name = 'Jean'
This would return Jean's parents + the parents of Jean's parents (Jean's grandparents).
Likewise, if I enter:
SELECT *
FROM [ANCESTORS]
( some sort of joins here )
Where Parent.Name = 'Ron'
Then I would get Ron's parents and also his children.
*******************************************************
So, as you can see, at first it appears that I'm after a LEFT JOIN - meaning that the grandparents don't need to have child records to be returned, but, then it turns out that I need INNER JOINS - to limit grandparents when I choose children.
Can anybody see my dilemma here?

Hi
I am using the Web Matrix Project to write a .NET
application. I have set up a database using MSDE which I
accessed through the Web Matrix Project to start with. I have now
found the Web Data Administrator which I use to backup my database and
help to transfer it to the Server where I hope to run this application
(if I ever get it finished!).
I need to set up some relationships between database tables but cannot
see a way to do this. SQL Server Books on Line referes to
Enterprise Manager which I believe ships with the full MS SQL Server
package (and costs a package). I am doing this on a
shoe-string. Any ideas on how to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, sorry if this comes across as a stupid question, but i'm new to SQL. I have had a look on Google and on these forums but not found the answer..
I am running MS SQL 7 with a database containing around 130 tables.. i want to know if there is a query/command that i can type that will look through all the tables and tell me which ones reference a specified table (through it's key). Hope this makes sense! i've looked at some of the stored procedures but not found any that give me anything useful.
EDIT: Just so you are aware, i did not create this database, hence why i am not aware of the relationships myself, i have only just started working on it.
Thanks

I'm upgrading my sites forum to a newer version. I've tried, unsuccessfully so far, to transfer member details, threads and posts to the new format. I say unsuccessfully but I have made it work once by deleting the Index's and Relationships on tables and re-entering them after transfer but his ended up screwing with the regestration of new members.
Before I become more frustrated than I already am, could I run something by you guys with the experience you have.
If I delete the Rels and Indx's again, then move all my tables over and then run this code through my browser, will the Indexs and Relationships find their way back to the right place?

Is there a way to create a supertype/subtype table in sql server 2000 or is supertype/subtype an abstract idea rather than an option on creating a table?
i would like to set up a supertype table:
person
personid
firstname
lastname
and two subtype tables:
employee
id
personId
ss#
customer
id
personId
someOtherInfo
how do i set this up so that I cant have the same personid in employee and customer. How do i make sure that the personid is in either one or the other.

I am starting a new project and somebody told me at work that if I create relationships (foreign keys) between my tables, it makes the database slower, the best way is to "link" the tables using sql instructions like inner/outer join.
Is that true?

I have an asset schema problem which I'm not too sure how to resolve....
I have an asset table which stores values common to all asset types. I have created seperate asset type tables(VehicleAssetDetail, PropertyAssetDetail, InvestmentAssetDetail) to store their specific details.
This in turn creates 1:1 relationships between "Asset" table and the respective detail tables.
If I were to store all the details in the "Asset" table it would cause a lot of redundancy bearing in my mind there are about four other asset type details I have excluded from the schema.
Are the 1:1 relationships bad? If they are, how do I resolve them without throwing all the columns from the asset details tables into the Asset table?
Attached is a 15Kb gif image of the schema. I'd really appreciate any help with this... :)
Thanks.
