I was wondering if anyone has tackled this problem. We have two competitors, Sybase and SQL Server, running together. Our dilemma is to have the production server, Sybase, be able to pass transaction log entries or nightly database backups over to the SQL Server, reporting server, either via a 3rd party software, SQL statement or some other gadget but the end result is to have the information concurrent on both the production server and the reporting server. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Daimon
hi i want when user connect to sql server and wants to do some works via my app, before doing nothing, check accessibility of user whether he/she can access that object or not, but i don't know which sp or function or view is useful for this work,can anyBody help me ? thanks
USE [Testing] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[Testing] Script Date: 4/25/2014 11:08:18 AM ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.
We are using SQL Server 2008 as our database and use Access as a GUI. I am looking to create a form in Access where employees can access their time card and request changes from management. I want to use the format from the attached screen shot for the form. I pretty much know how to do it all, the only point of complication is trying to figure out the easiest way to get the transaction punch record data on employee_punch_record into a format where I can easily populate the form in the horizontal format you see in the screen shot.
I am not super strong in SQL, but figure I can do it using a formatting table of some sort. quick and easy way to move transaction records into a more horizontally oriented record?
I encountered a very strange problem again. Why the time series displayed on the chart are so strange? The Key time column I chose for my time series algorithm is cal_month(e.g 199001...), but why the date displayed on the time series chart is like :05/06/2448? (it should be like 199001..?) What is that data? And where exactly did it come from? What is the exact cause of this?
Hope it is clear for your help.
I am really confused on this and thanks a lot for your kind advices and help and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
how I can load the CSV file data into the sql server table. I know there are ways like bulk insert and other to load the csv file data into the table. But in my case the table doesn't exist and has to be created at the run time. With simple insert in temp table we do like select * into #temp from tablename and that creates the temp table. So. I need something like that which create the temp table and load the data into it. because the CSV file would have different number of columns and names so I can not create the table structure in advance. I have to create the table at run time.Â
I need to store data in the format 99:59:59, <hh:mm:ss> but SQL Server will not let me do this because the datetime field is basically a 24 hour clock. If someone, for example, finished a race in 34 hours, 54 minutes, 10 seconds, how would I represent this in a SQL table other than storing the data as a VARCHAR datatype?
I was wondering is it possible with sql to take datetime data and total the datetime data per date entered into the database, for example DATE TOTAL HOURS
+10/22/2007 8 |_ 10/22/2007 Time In Time Out Hours 8:00 am 9:00am 1.0 9:01 am 10:01 am 1.0 10:01 am 11:31 am 1.5 etc. etc. etc until the 8 hours have been reached,
This output will be displayed in a report on reportserver 2005. I have been unable to come up with a solution for this problem and would like to see if any of the experts here might have an idea.
I currently have an application which retrieves stats from a SQL database that are updated throughout the day. My application updates every 3 seconds to retrieve these stats but I found that it's quite expensive to the server's CPU when there are several clients running my application. Are there any other methods for extracting the data that won't require so much CPU. The fact that the database is being hit so much isn't good either. I have already written a webservice hoping that this would improve things but I'm not sure it has.
I have a table (Tickdata; Contract,Price,Timecreated) which storesTimecreated as datetime. I need to request the maximum price where theTimecreated is greater than some value, in this case 9/13/2004 3:09:29 PM.How exactly do I get data from a specified time?Thanks
I am moving the data from a flat file to a table in SQL Server 2005. One of the field in the table is time stamp which tells me when the data is loaded. Which is best way to populate this field (time stamp) with constant time stamp for the entire batch data? Thank you, SQL Server 2005 SP2.
When I enter data into a SQL database and save it, the data that I have just added disapears, but when I close the applicaiton and re-open it, it's still there - is there any reason for this and any way to get it to stay?
Hi, I have the problem in accessing data from MS-SQL server by using Dreamwearver MX 's VB.NET page. Although it works well, in the date format, it also display time. Please see the following code. SELECT student_ID, Material_ID, Borrow_Date, Due_Date, Renew_Date, Status, include_withFROM dbo.RecordWHERE student_ID = @student_ID To remove time, I added the following code as follows. After that, I can preview and works well without having time. SELECT student_ID, Material_ID, convert(varchar(10),Borrow_Date,103), convert(varchar(10),Due_Date,103), convert(varchar(10),Renew_Date,103), Status, include_withFROM dbo.RecordWHERE student_ID = @student_ID But, when I browse, I get the runtime error. When I look more details in server, the error said " Parser Error Message: The server tag is not well formed." and error in <MM:DataSet" Please help me. Jon
how do i insert into a datatime field of sql server just the time that is 10:45:00 PM, I do not want the date just the timeinsert into tblTest (LoginTime) values (@_Time)will insert the 10/10/2005 10:45:00 Pm but i just want 10.:45:00 pm how do i do that.
Right now i'm developing a time attendance system. So in that case i'll be playing with time where that time represents what time an employee come to office and go home.
I'm a little bit confuse which data type i'll be used in this system. Because there will be a lot of calculation according time data inside the database, such as: how many times an employee comes before 08.00, how much hours that he/she spend in the office that they, etc.
Can somebody help me with this problem, what data type most suitable with this kind of system and how can I do the calculation more easily?
Hi I´m a SysAdmin and I´m implementing ASSP (anti-spam) to use with an email server. But the ASSP requires a txt file with all domains hosted in the server that are in a SQL Table of the server. My questions is: Is there anything to make a real time TXT file with all the domains ? maybe use trigger I dont know..
Hi! I'va tried to find but I wasn't successful... I have a column in my database which I want it to be in minutes.seconds.cents of second... Is it possible to define this data type in sql server? Thanks for any precious reply!
I have just started in the scary world of SQL Server admin and am trying to unravel the mysteries of backups etc. If I run 'BACKUP DATABASE xxx TO DISK = 'D:DB_Backupsxxx.bak' WITH RETAINDAYS = 7' each day, each db backup if appended to the same '.bak' file and the RETAINDAYS protects the backup from being deleted by SQL Server. OK so far. But does anyone understand what criteria is used to decide when to overwrite the older backups? My backup file is getting bigger everyday, with no sign of any of the old data being deleted! Do I have to wait for the entire disk to become full before they start to get overwritten? Or should I just not worry and trust that it will do it all correctly? Any ideas would be much appreciated.
At my office, we've been slowly working on putting together a data warehouse.
We're a financial services company and one of the services that we offer is debt collection. As far as reports go, our clients are interested in knowing how much money we collect over time. In particular, they want to know how many payments we've gotten 5, 10, and 15 months (and so on) after we receive a case. (Obviously, the 5-month payments are also included in the 10 and 15-month calculations).
When I wrote this report using our transactional database, I was completely new to SQL and the ever-resourceful Patron Saint took pity on me, so you can see a good description of the details at http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=78510
Now that I'm no longer a total newbie at SQL, and having been through a relatively extensive seminar on data warehousing, I've been entrusted with researching certain aspects of data warehouse development (rest easy, though, folks - the real DWH work is not being done by the very inexperienced me, but by an actual professional :) ).
My question:
how would you model this kind of "relative time" in a data warehouse? How would you display the 5-month, 10-month, and 15-month payments in a DWH? I can't really imagine that the kinds of joins necessary to do this in a transactional database would be desirable in a data warehouse.
We have the following:
1.) FACT_Payment: A fact table showing each each payment to the most detailed granularity. One attribute of this table is the payment date. Another attribute is a foreign key to the case dimension described below.
2.) DIM_Case: A dimension table showing information on each case, including the case start date. DIM_Case
3.) DIM_Date: A date dimension table.
(For added clarification: The FACT_Payment payment date has to be 5, 10, 15 months etc... after the DIM_Case start date.)
Any ideas, comments, experience with something like this?
Is it possible to group many time series into clusters by using the clustering algorithm of the SQL server 2005. The same question applies to "association rules" technique. Any examples?
(Just getting started with SSIS) I have a data flow task with source S1 and destination D. The mappings from S1 to D are straightforward, but additionally, I need to lookup a value from source S2 one time and map the value a column in D for every row of S1. Note that this lookup based on a constant value independent of S1, and therefore no column mappings are involved (this lookup is essentially "standalone").
I would expect I could do the lookup, assign the value to a data flow level variable, then reference that variable in a derived column transform or some such thing, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to do the lookup in the data flow task and assign it to a variable. Am I on the right track here, or...?
What datatype should I take to store time in a table -- datetime , float or decimal?
my requirement is to store "Worked Hours in a day by an employee" in the field say, 9 hrs and 30 mins.
I should be able to manipulate data in this field such as total hours present in the month, extra hours worked in a day (considering 9 hrs as standard time),less hours worked in a day, and so on
I am new to sql database programming. developing an application using C# and sql server 2005. i am having problems with date insertion to database. I use datatimepicker control to get date input. here is my code. in table i use datetime column type.
Just wondering what is the best time to ensure that we only return data when the datetime field is the same when compared between two datetimes within a minute difference.
As in the following should return the data:
'2015-04-09 09:00:20' compared to '2015-04-09 09:00:50'
And the following should not return the data:
'2015-04-09 09:01:20' compared to '2015-04-09 09:00:50'
The problem, is that I'm merging data from three different result sets, which they all have data for every minute, however, the timestamp can be different by seconds or milliseconds.
So, I'm only interested to return the data when the two fields that I'm comparing are equal within a minute. I need to ignore seconds and milliseconds.
the number of results per CaseID are varable some have 1 record others up to 36 records..I need to pivot the results based off of the competed date Name has 20 distinct values but we can have diplicates...so something like
Case Name Date 1 This 2015-01-01 1 That 2015-01-03 2 That 2013-01-01 2 Then 2014-12-03 2 This 2015-01-01 2 There 2015-04-03 3 This 1999-01-01 3 That 2001-01-02 3 This 2006-01-01
looks like this
1 This That 2 That Then This There 3 This That This
