Adding A Field To An Accesstable Using Sql
Mar 19, 2003
Hi,
I have this problem: I'm creating a weblinked database using Access and ASP. The problem is that the fields in the table won't be always the same. E.g. sometimes there will be need for an extra field, but after a while it may not be necessary anymore. Users should be able to add a field to the table (and if possible delete one later on)
I don't whether it is possible to use sql to add a field to an accessdbase. Or is there another way to solve this problem?
thanks for your reply,
yours sincerely,
Dimitri De Vos

Hi,
I have a concern about adding a new field to a table with image field - which is huge.
Will there be a problem with some databases, where they have a hard time locating data correctly after such a large field?
Previously this happened to me, and what was advised to put all the big fields at the end of the table.
Thanks.

does anyone know if there is a way, or perhaps a custom toolbox control that is already developed that allows you to drag an entire dataset into a table, instead of pulling everything in field by field...?
was just curious.

FROM AIMPDTA_CDADDR LEFT JOIN AIMPDTA_ASAREA ON AIMPDTA_CDADDR.CDNAME = AIMPDTA_ASAREA.ASNAME

how do i add a new field and insert a value into it?
I'm importing data from another table into a new one, but my source table has a char field and the target filed is (int) can I add a new field to the source file and add a value to it? and how?
I have in my source table a field call companyName that contains text and the target table has a companyId which is an INT.
If I create a field call companyId and add a value of '1' depending on the value of CompanyName...
This is what i want ot do
if CompanyName = LA then insert 1 into new filed companyID
How can I do that? I have to do this for 100 or more tables. Can I write a script that will do that for me?
does it make sence?

Have a table with the following data.
Table1
Ord_no inv_no amt Account freefield3
25 125 100.00 1444
25 125 10.00 3555 Rebate
25 125 10.00 3555 Rebate
After the records are inserted I need to add the amt's where freefield3 equals rebate then subtract that sum from the amt where account = 1444. So my final result would be to have 80.00 in the amt field where account equals 1444

I want to add a computed field to an existing SQL table:
where Field1 is >0 and field2 is not null
set newfield = 'Y'
else set newfield = 'N'
I want to keep this existing table because I'm using it as the basis for an Access Report that is nearly complete.
BTW this table is the result of a DTS package that is comprised of several SQL executables so I need to be able to repeat this as part of a larger process.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I am stuck in the following situation, I have following query:
SELECT EM1.VALUE AS 'P_ABC', EM2.VALUE AS 'P_XYZ', COUNT(EM1.VALUE) AS 'COUNTS'
FROM TABLE_1 EM1, TABLE_1 EM2
WHERE EM1.EXTENDED_PROPERTY_GID IN (SELECT GID FROM TABLE_3 WHERE NAME = 'ABC' )
AND EM2.EXTENDED_PROPERTY_GID IN (SELECT GID FROM TABLE_3 WHERE NAME = 'XYZ' )
AND EM1.DOCUMENT_METADATA_ENTRY_GID = EM2.DOCUMENT_METADATA_ENTRY_GID
group by EM1.VALUE,EM2.VALUE
There is foreign key relation between EXTENDED_PROPERTY_GID OF TABLE_1 AND GID FROM TABLE_3
Now, I want to create an ad hoc report but the problem is when I add EM1.VALUE to display the P_ABC, I am not able to add EM2.VALUE after that, may be because refere to same column of same table. I have to add EM1.VALUE and EM2.VALUE both to display result but I am not able to do it.
What is the solution for this problem ? Its kind of urgent.
Thanks,
prashant

All- Please advise how to configure a gridview so that when introducing non-editable fields to the select statement, the edit function doesn't crash with a "Procedure or function (UpdateCommand) has too many arguments specified."
The scenario: Update works find when I have a gridview based on the following SPs:
SELECT:
1 ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.H2SelectCommand
2 AS
3 SET NOCOUNT ON;
4 SELECT headcount_id, person_id, act_session_id, no_answer
5 FROM headcount
6
INSERT:
1 ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.H2UpdateCommand
2 (
3 @person_id smallint,
4 @act_session_id smallint,
5 @no_answer bit,
6 @Original_headcount_id smallint,
7 @headcount_id smallint
8 )
9 AS
10 SET NOCOUNT OFF;
11 UPDATE [headcount] SET [person_id] = @person_id, [act_session_id] = @act_session_id, [no_answer] = @no_answer WHERE (([headcount_id] = @headcount_id));
12
HOWEVER, when I alter the select command so that it includes a column (person.person_name) from a parent directory like this:
1 ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.H2SelectCommand
2 AS
3 SET NOCOUNT ON;
4 SELECT headcount_id, person.person_name, headcount.person_id, act_session_id, no_answer
5 FROM headcount
6
7 INNER JOIN person
8 ON headcount.person_id = person.person_id
...and then proceed to do an Edit/Update operation, I get the pesky "Procedure or function H2UpdateCommand has too many arguments specified" message.
The only obvious thing I could think to try was to configure the new column in the gridview to be Read Only, but this didn't help. Do I have to alter the Update SP to somehow account for the new field, even though the warning already says that there's too many arguments in it?
Any ideas on how to fix this error would be appreciated!

I have a simple query like:
select max(PTR_DATE)
from MPR_portfolio_transactions
group by PTR_SYMBOL
and this is working fine, but if I add an extra column with another field like:
select max(PTR_DATE) , PTR_SHAREBALANCE
from MPR_portfolio_transactions
group by PTR_SYMBOL
Then I get an error message like:
Column 'MPR_portfolio_transactions.PTR_SHAREBALANCE' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
How can I get round to this?

Hello:I have a stored procedure for generating our invoices in CrystalReports. I have added a new field to the SP, but when I try to add thefield to my Crystal Report invoice, the field isn't available in thelist. However, if I create a new, blank report using the same storedprocedure as the datasource, the field is available. I've seeminglytried every iteration of "Verify Database" to no avail.The obvious answer would be to simply drop the sp from my existingreport and then re-add it. However, if you do this, all your fields onthe report are dropped.Any ideas?Thanks,Scott

When querying a bit field, I am encountering a problem with MS SQLServer returning a larger number of records for a table than theactual number of records that exist within that table.For example, my customer table has 1 million unique records, so theresults of the following query are as such:select count(customer_nbr) from customer = 1,000,000There is bit field in the customer table that denotes whether acustomer has placed an order with us called. That flag is calledorder_flagIf I run the following query:select count(customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1The result is 3,000,000 records.There is no logical way that this is possible, as my table onlycontains 1,000,000 unique records and the number of customers with anorder should be a subset of this.If a run the above query with a distinct before customer number, I getthe results I want:select count(distinct customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1600,000 records.So while I can get to the answer I want, I have no idea why I amreturning incorrect values if I don't select distinct.Can anyone help? I checked microsoft support and message boards buthaven't seen anything.I should note that the bit field is indexed.I am not sure if that isthe problem or not.

My task is to add income by taking few variables from webpage. I had take User ID(From database), Field value by selecting it from DropDownBox( Which value is once again taken from database), Income Description, Date, Amount . I had completed this task successfully by binding DropDownBox to database by query string and added income using stored procedure as below.
I need this to be done using only single Stored Procedure for binding Field Value to DropDownBox and for adding income. Plz tell me how to do this?

Hi all,
Hopefully I am posting this question in the correct forum. I am still learning about SQL 2005. Here is my issue. I have an access db that I archive weekly into and SQL server table. I have used the dst wizard to create an import job and initally that worked fine. field I have as the primary key in the access db cannot be the primary key in the sql table since I archive weekly and that primary key field will be imported several time over. I overcame this initally by not having a primary key in the sql table. This table is strictly for reference. However, now I need to setup a unique field for each of the records in the sql table. What I have done so far is create a recordID field in the sql table that is an int and set as yes to Identify (auotnumber). That worked great and created unique id for all existing records. The problem now is on the import. When I try to import the access table i am getting an error because of the extra field in the sql table, and the error is saying cannot import null value into this field. So... my final question is how can I import the access table into the sql table with one extra field which is the autonumber unique field? Thanks a bunch for any asistance.

Hi everyone,
I'm extremely new to SQL so be nice
I am attempting to write a script to add onto the end of a text field the words " -- Disposed " (About 60 rows worth).
The field is a TEXT field, so unlike a varchar field I can't just use Update as shown below.
Code:
Update AR_Primary_asset
Set AR_Primary_asset.description = AR_Primary_asset.description + ' -- Disposed'
Where AR_Primary_Asset.ASSET_REF in ('1','2','4')
I found on the Mircosoft pages about UPDATETEXT, but this only seem to work to update one row (In the case below Asset_ref = 3, was the only row effected) .
Code:
DECLARE @Dispose binary(16)
SELECT @Dispose = TEXTPTR(DESCRIPTION)
FROM AR_PRIMARY_ASSET
WHERE AR_Primary_Asset.ASSET_REF in ('1','2','3')
UPDATETEXT AR_PRIMARY_ASSET.DESCRIPTION @ptrval null null ' -- Disposed'
So i wrapped it into a cursor, this worked on my test SQL server which runs SQL2005.
Code:
DECLARE @Dispose varbinary(16)
DECLARE cursor1 CURSOR FOR
SELECT TEXTPTR(DESCRIPTION)
FROM AR_Primary_Asset
Where AR_Primary_Asset.ASSET_REF in('1','2','3')
OPEN cursor1
FETCH NEXT FROM cursor1
INTO @Dispose
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
UPDATETEXT AR_Primary_Asset.DESCRIPTION @Dispose NULL NULL ' -- Disposed'
FETCH NEXT FROM cursor1
INTO @Dispose
END
CLOSE cursor1
DEALLOCATE cursor1
But when it was run on our SQL2000 server it gave the following error message
Quote: Msg 403, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals add, type equals text.
I've never used vars, cursors, updatetext or even text fields before. So maybe I am going about it totally the wrong way.
Is anyone able to tell me a better way to write this? or how to make it compatible to SQL2000?

The mfg_start_date is delcared as a string variable
mfg_start_date = CStr(CDate(Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 3, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 5, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2)))
option 1
I will have to declare the mfg_start_date as date but I need to send in a blank value for this variable in the stored procedure. It won't accept a null or blank value.

I embedded a SQL query in excel that gets some datetime fields like "TASK_FINISH_DATE" .
How can I convert a datetime field to a date field in SQL in a way that excel will recognize it as a date type and not a text type?
I tried:
CONVERT(varchar(8),TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CONVERT(Date,TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CAST(TASK_FINISH_DATE as date)
**all of the above returned text objectes in excel and not date objects.

I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package
using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP
errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them
as datetime but it failed.
What options do I have that will work?
