In my Project
i want to check the date at the time of insert in A-Table
that it should be Greater than (>) Date Defined in B-Table
Note:-B-table have only one record
so plz tell me how can i do using Sql-Server Backend only
I have 2 tables
Primary_Table (Key, ........)
Foreign_Table (Key_1, Key_2, ............)
I want this:
If I update the Key in Primary_Table then
Key_1 is Update where Key_1 = Key
AND
If I update the Key in Primary_Table then
Key_2 is Update where Key_2 = Key
I can not use CONSTRAINT because I can not use ON UPDATE CASCADE for this case (It not possible to use 2 CONSTRAINT WITH ON UPDATE CASCADE).
I WANT TO USE TRIGGERS
This is my trigger (but I am not sure it is the best way ?)
CREATE TRIGGER Test ON [Primary_table]
FOR UPDATE
AS
Declare @NewValue varchar(30)
Declare @OldValue varchar(30)
SET @NewValue = (Select Key From Inserted)
SET @OldValue = (Select Key From Deleted)
UPDATE [Foreign_Table]
SET [Foreign_Table].[Key_1] = @NewValue
FROM [Foreign_Table] WHERE [Key_1] = @OldValue
UPDATE [Foreign_Table]
SET [Foreign_Table].[Key_2] = @NewValue
FROM [Foreign_Table] WHERE [Key_2] = @OldValue
Sorry for my english.
Please consider I am a beginner
Hello,
I have a table that allows a user (from another table) to belong to multiple organizations. Part of this table's schema is a column that will be used to allow the user to indicate which organization that they belong to will be the primary one. A user can only have one PRIMARY organization. I was going to handle via an Insert or Update Trigger...checking to see if the userid already a Primary. However, now I am wondering if a Constraint would be the way to go? I admit though, I don't know enough about Constraints to know how this would work.
The table's schema is like:
UserOrg
UserOrgID (an identity column)
UserID (foreign key to the user's table)
Org (the name of the org)
PrimaryOrg (bit column)
Thanks for any help.

I do not know this is the correct way to do this, but somehow thisisnt working. All I want is not to have a null value in field A ifthere is a value in field Bheres the codeCREATE TRIGGER tiu_name ON tblNameFOR INSERT, UPDATEASDECLARE @FieldA AS REAL, @FieldB AS REAL;SELECT @FieldA=FieldA, @FieldB=FieldBFROM Inserted;IF (@FieldB IS NOT NULL) AND (@FieldA IS NULL)RAISERROR('Error Message',1,2);GOPlease Help.

I am not sure if this is the correct forum but i thought i'd ask and see if you can help me!
I have a table with 2 columns:
1st column will house numbers from 1 to 50
2nd column will be date
I want the users to be able to pick a number for certain date and enter it to the table, however I don't want the system to allow the same number for the same date. I was looking at constraints and triggers but can't make out what exactly i should use and how. The Insert will be initiated from ASP page on our intranet. Please help!!!

Hello all
The majority of my database experience comes from ORACLE and i am trying to use some functionality that i have already used in Oracle into a project i am working on in MSDE.
I want to create a trigger that uses a DML constraint that will prevent a tenants from being inserted into a house if the bedroom count is less or equal to the number of tenants currently in the house.
The oracle code is below
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Tenant_room_check
BEFORE INSERT or update of tenant_ID ON Tenant
FOR each row
as (new.tenant_ID is not null)
DECLARE
Tenant_count NUMBER;
Bedroom_count NUMBER;
BEGIN
select count(Tenant_ID) as Tenant_count
from Tenant
where tenant_ID = :new.tenant_ID
and House_ID = 1
AND Tenant_status = 1;
select count(ROOM_ID) as bedroom_count
from Room
where Room_Name = 'Bedroom'
and House_ID = 1
if (Tenant_count > Bedroom_count)
then raise_application_error(-20601,
'you cannot have more tenants than the number of bedrooms in a student house');
END IF;
END;
/
Ideally I would like to pass the HOUSE_ID and the TENANT_ID from my application using @variablename
I have been looking over forums and in books but i am getting all confused over the syntax to use.
Please Help
Many Thanks

I am using SQL server 2000. I have a parent table 'MimeTypes' with primary key 'mimetype'. This is referenced as foreign key in table 'AssetTypes' as column 'BaseMimeType'.
The referential constraint is simple :
alter table AssetTypes
add constraint FK_ASSETTYPES_REF_BASEMIMETYPE foreign key (BaseMimeType)
references MimeTypes (MimeType) on update no action on delete no action;
I have FOR Update trigger on parent table ('MimeTypes') which is as follows:
CREATE TRIGGER trg_MimeTypes_update ON MimeTypes FOR UPDATE
AS
IF UPDATE(MimeType)
BEGIN
UPDATE AssetTypes
SET BaseMimeType = (select MimeType from inserted)
FROM AssetTypes as A
JOIN deleted as d on A.BaseMimeType = d.MimeType
END;
********
The problem is simple. I want to execute a update query on parent table ('MimeTypes') which modifies 'mimetype' value referenced by child. I dont want to include cascade option in constraint.
When such query is executed error comes as : UPDATE statement conflicted with COLUMN REFERENCE constraint 'FK_ASSETTYPES_REF_BASEMIMETYPE'. The conflict occurred in database 'default.db', table 'AssetTypes', column 'BaseMimeType'.
*****
Is there any way to do this?
say i have a query like:
UPDATE table SET status = 1 WHERE id = 1000
if i have a trigger on that table, is there anyway i can get the id ?
i know i can get the status by SELECT status FROM Inserted, but anyway to get what the id is? or would i just have to update the id as well?
thanks
I want to incorporate a Check constraint within a trigger, based on this but im struggling with the coding.Assuming that is an Alphanumeric field you should be checking what value is in the alphanumeric column from inserted, comparing it with whatever is in the AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl to see if there’s a duplicate and then raising the error...This is my Trigger:
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[DUPLICATES]
ON [dbo].[AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl]
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @Alphanumericcol VARCHAR (750)
-- This trigger has been created to check that duplicate rows are not inserted into table.
-- Check if row exists
SELECT @Alphanumericcol
FROM Inserted i, AMGR_User_Fields_Tbl t
[code]....
Hi,
Can anyone tell me the order in which uniqueness constraints on indexes are enforced vs. when triggers are executed ? I have a unique constraint on an index and a trigger on the column on which the same index has been created. When a row is inserted, the trigger checks if the value for that column already exists in the table - if not, it inserts the row as is, else it gets the max() val of the column (based on another key column) and increments it by one, then does the insert. Creating an index across the two works fine, but if I set the Unique Values property for the index, subsequent inserts bomb out - yet there aren't any duplicates in the final table, as the trigger ensures this. Anyone got any ideas on this? My deduction is that the uniqueness constraint gets enforced before the trigger gets executed, but at the same time this *seems* illogical, as the row has not been inserted into the table at the point where the trigger is executed.
Regards,
Jon Reade.
Hi.
I was wondering how I should go about doing this thing. I need to put a value in a column that is based on values on other columns in the same row.
When this statement executes I need to put a value in Col3.
insert into myTable(Col1, Col2)
values(25, -14)
Something like so:
if(Col1 >0 AND Col2 <0)
set Col3 = Col1 - Col2
else
set Col3 = Col1;
I don't now quite how to solve this. I am really going to need this value in a column. Calculating the value at retrieval is not on option...
I appreciate all help. I'm using SQL Server 2005.
Thanks!
how to i write a trigger to enforce this constraint..A rental can be made only if the customer is registered with the company and the car is not currently rented out. If not, the rental will not be successful.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I am looking for a way to define a trigger that is a replacement for a multi-column foreign key.
I know how to a convert a single-column foreign key constraint into a trigger (i.e., to resolve diamond-structured references).
CREATE TABLE parent_tab
(
col_a INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk PRIMARY KEY(col_a)
);
CREATE TABLE child_tab
(
col_x INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fk FOREIGN KEY (col_x) REFERENCES parent_tab(col_a) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
The conversion would remove the foreign key definition and add this trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted))
END;
Unfortunately, now I need to resolve a situation where there is involved a multi-column foreign key.
CREATE TABLE parent_tab
(
col_a INTEGER NOT NULL,
col_b INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk PRIMARY KEY(col_a, col_b)
);
CREATE TABLE child_tab
(
col_x INTEGER NOT NULL,
col_y INTEGER NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fk FOREIGN KEY (col_x, col_y) REFERENCES parent_tab(col_a, col_b) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
This does not work, because the temporary table "deleted" might contain more than one row. How do I make sure that the values belong to the same row?
-- incorrect trigger, might delete too many rows
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted) AND child_tab.col_y IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted) AND parent_tab.col_b IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted))
END;
-- some magic needed :-)
CREATE TRIGGER tr_single
ON parent_tab INSTEAD OF DELETE
AS BEGIN
DELETE FROM child_tab WHERE (child_tab.col_x IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted AS t1) AND child_tab.col_y IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted AS t2) AND row_id(t1) = row_id(t2))
DELETE FROM parent_tab WHERE (parent_tab.col_a IN (SELECT col_a FROM deleted AS t1) AND parent_tab.col_b IN (SELECT col_b FROM deleted AS t2) AND row_id(t1) = row_id(t2))
END;
I know the trigger definition above is ***... but I hope that it helps to make clear what I need.
Btw., I use SQL Server 2005.
Thanks in advance,

Hello all.
First of all, I've been a reader of swynk.com for quite sometime now, and I'd like to say 'thank you' to everyone who contributes.
Today, I'm the town moron.. haha I'm having issues with column level constraints. I have a varchar(50) where I want to keep *,=,#,/, .. etc, OUT OF the value input. I don't want to strip them. I simply want for sql to throw an error if the insert contains those (and other characters). The only characters that I want in the column are A-Z and 0-9. However, it's not a set number of characters per insert. It always varies... There has to be an easier way to do this than creating a constraint for every possibilty... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, all.
I am trying to create table with following SQL script:
Code Snippet
create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) constraint NN_Prj_Name not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
When I execute this script I get following error message:
Error source: SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider
Error message: Named Constraint is not supported for this type of constraint. [ Constraint Name = NN_Prj_Name ]
I looked in the SQL Server Books Online and saw following:
CREATE TABLE (SQL Server Compact)
...
< column_constraint > ::= [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ] { [ NULL | NOT NULL ] | [ PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE ] | REFERENCES ref_table [ ( ref_column ) ] [ ON DELETE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ] [ ON UPDATE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ]
As I understand according to documentation named constraints should be supported, however error message says opposite. I can rephrase SQL script by removing named constraint.
Code Snippet
create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
This script executes correctly, however I want named constraints and this does not satisfy me.
We are using SQL CE 3.5 on tablet PCs, that synchs with our host SQL 2005 Server using Microsoft Synchronization Services. On the tablets, when inserting a record, we get the following error:
A duplicate value cannot be inserted into a unique index. [ Table name = refRegTitle,Constraint name = PK_refRegTitle
But the only PK on this table is RegTitleID.
The table structure is:
[RegTitleID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[RegTitleNumber] [int] NOT NULL,
[RegTitleDescription] [varchar](200) NOT NULL,
[FacilityTypeID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Active] [bit] NOT NULL,
The problem occurs when a Title Number is inserted and a record with that number already exists. There is no unique constraint on Title Number.
Has anyone else experienced this?
SQL CE 3.0
I am trying to add constraints using SQL statements but get an error saying that the constraint would cause a cyclical reference. The same statements work with SSCE 2.0
Eg
CREATE TABLE A(pkA integer NOT NULL CONSTRAINT pkAx PRIMARY KEY);
CREATE TABLE B(pkB integer NOT NULL CONSTRAINT pkBx PRIMARY KEY,
pkA integer NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fkBA FOREIGN KEY (pkA) REFERENCES A(pkA) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE);
CREATE TABLE C(pkA integer NOT NULL, pkB integer NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT fkCA FOREIGN KEY (pkA) REFERENCES A(pkA) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE,
CONSTRAINT fkCB FOREIGN KEY (pkB) REFERENCES B(pkB) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE);
I dont see that the foreign keys should cause a cyclical reference problem.
I have also tried not having the ON UPDATE DELETE on one of the Constraints on Table 3.
Any ideas anyone would be appreciated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi guys,
I have this problem. I want to add a new primary key to a table but i want the name of the contstraint to be generated by the system. I have this TSQL code.
ALTER TABLE TableTest
ADD CONSTRAINT PRIMARY KEY (C1)
Reading the BOL, it says that if you don't supply a name for the constraint it generates one. But I get this error "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'PRIMARY'".
If I add a name to the constraint, it works fine.
I'm using SQL Server 2000

I was trying to enter a constraint expression into the dialog box. I have three fields of the data type "bit". I want to make sure that of the three, only one equals "1". Using the documentation I found in Books Online, I attempted to use the following expression, but it would not validate.
(expert == 1 && supplier == 0 && employee == 0) || (expert == 0 && supplier == 1 && employee == 0) || (expert == 0 && supplier == 0 && employee == 1)
Can someone please assist me in getting this corrected?

Hi All,
I have created a table using VIEWS in SQL server 2005, now i want to be ablle to edit it in a datagrid but i cannot do so as i there is no primary key!
now does anybody know how to set a primary key constraint so i can set one of the fields as a primary key to identify the row?
many thanks
If there are two different transactions, both of which update the username column to 'xyz' for userid = 234 in 'Users' table. This is a unique value for username. Ater this update each transaction adds a row to 'AppLog' table. The transaction is only committed after second operation.
The 'username' column has a unique constraint on it.
If transaction isolation level is 'read committed', and both transaction execute the first operation when neither of the transactions have been committed, then the transaction that calls COMMIT later will error out or not? If COMMIT does not check constraints then it will NOT error out. As a result we will have a violation of unique constraint happening without any error being thrown by SQL Server.
I have groups of records in a table, and I would like to set a necessary condition on each group. The condition is that EXACTLY ONE of the records in each group has a flag field set to True (bit = 1). I can naturally write triggers for update, insert and delete events that test for such a condition.
Something along the lines of this condition:
(select count(ClovekAutoID)
from TableOfClovekNames tCN
where JeHlavni = 1
group by ClovekAutoID
having COUNT(JeHlavni ) > 1) = 1In fact,
I tried this just on whim, but naturally, the SS engine told me to go roll my hoop, that subqueries are not allowed in constraint expressions.
We have a domain joined SQL 2008 R2 server performing a snapshot database replication to a non-domain joined SQL 2008 R2 server. The snapshot replication is working with one exception. Under one of the tables, there is a Key, Constraint and Index that are part of the database. The Key and Indexes is copying over. However, the constraint is not. Why would the Key and Index copy but not the Constraint?

I have created a simple package to load an Excel Spreadsheet into a SQL Server table. There is a one to one relationship between the columns in the .xls file and the columns in the DB record. I am getting integrity constraint errors when I try to load all numeric data from the spreadsheet (defined as Category General in excel, not defined as numeric but consisting of all numeric characters) into a column defined as (nvarchar(20), not null) in SQL Server Management Studio. There are no constraints on the column.
I have been able to temporarily bypass the offending rows, but I do need to load them into SQL Server. The problem column has a mixture of data, two examples would be: N255, 168050. It's the 168050 value that's causing the Task to bomb. How can I get this loaded into my table ?
I am running the package from within MS Visual Studio 2005 Version 8, Excel is version 2003 (11.8120.8122) SP2
Thanks,

Why we the Unique Constraint doesn't allow the multiple null values in Sql Server?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
When I create a unique constraint, SQL Server automatically creates an index on this constraint. So when I run the following...
ALTER TABLE PersonsProjects
WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT NoDupes UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED (PersonID, ProjectID)
...SQL Server will create a composite index on PersonsProjects called NoDupes on PersonIDand ProjectID. Thing is, I need this index to include a third column Status since most queries use this column in conjunction with PersonID and ProjectID. If there was no index on this table, I would have created it as follows:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX NoDupes ON PersonsProjects (PersonID, ProjectID) INCLUDE (Status) WITH IGNORE_DUP_KEY
But this won't enforce the unique constraint on PersonID and ProjectID when performing inserts and updates. Is there any way of creating a unique constraint with an included column?
I would rather not have two indexes...
NoDupes: PersonID,ProjectID
New Index: PersonID,ProjectID INCLUDE Status
...so I'm trying to determine what other options that might be available...please advise.
Thanks much.
We are on SQL 2014...we have a bunch of views in a database where we are trying to find the views which have more than 16 columns max for unique index/constraint...this is needed so we can convert them to indexed views...
