Count(*) Vs Sysindexes
Sep 15, 2000I have read at this location--
http://www.swynk.com/friends/achigrik/RowCount.asp
that it is better to use sysindexes to get a rowcount.
Can I be assured that this is always up-to-date?

Sysindexes SQL 6.5
Oct 3, 2001When you have a table with no indexes you can see the table name in sysindexes and the relevant data in the rest of the fields with an indid of 0. I understand this bit.....but when you have created an index and then you delete it again.... the row in sysindexes just has the tablename and no other data?
Weird or by design?

Sysindexes Table
Jun 18, 2001How can I use sysindexes table to determine the indexes, tables being indexed, and the columns to which the indexes belong.
Thanks
Sysindexes Don't Match
Sep 7, 2004It seems my sysindexes table is inaccurate on a nonclustered index. In my case the rowcount (rows and rowcnt) do not match the actual rowcount of the table. The command UPDATE STATISTICS doesn't change the rows or rowcount, adding 'FULSLCAN' won't budge rowcount either.
After I did a dbcc reindex, the number of rows matched, however, upon adding rows in the table both rows and rowcount are out of sync again.
It's a fairly straightforward table, no triggers, no computed fields, only integer, datetime, varchar and bigint columns. There's a clustered index on a bigint column and a nonclustered index on a integer column.
dbcc show_statistics show that the nonclustered index is updated and it's rows and rows sampled match the number of rows in the table (not in the sysindexes-table).
I'd like to know if I'm chasing ghosts here or if there's something very wrong here. What could be causing the counts being inaccurate? Anyone who could shed some light?
Query Sysindexes
Jun 3, 2007i hav a table, Test1, with a clustered index and two non clustered index defined on it.
When i use sp_help Test1, the CI and non clustered index are listed along with the column names.
when i query the sysindex table (for id = object_id(Test1))
i can see entries like _WA_Sys_<<ColumnName>>_3D5EEB29.
what are these entries? are they indexes? if yes, how these entries are created and what is the significance of these entries.
Pl discuss.
Thanks.

Could Not Find Row In Sysindexes For Database
Aug 26, 2007I am trying to attach a database that was created on another server. I believe the database was created using SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005. Now, I have successfully attached the database in my development environment, which is using SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.
However, when I tried to attach the database onto our production server, which is SQL Server 2000 I received the error:
Error 602:Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 18, object ID 1, index ID 1. Run DBCC CheckTable on sysindexes.
In my development environment, I ran DBCC CheckDB on the source database and no errors are returned.
I aslo checked the compatibility level under the database properties and it shows: Sql Server 2000 (80)
So, this should not be a version incompatibility issue. What is causing the attach to fail on SQL Server 2000?
Thanks for any help.

DBCC Error In Sysindexes
Oct 10, 2006I have some errors in my DB, we do have a backup plan in place, but the person who put it in place is no longer here. It's all automated and running, the problem is , we do A LOT of transactions a day, and the error has been in the db since 9/20(2.5 weeks) when someone shut the power off accidentally. So i'm reluctant to do a backup, mainly since i have NO idea how to do one, we do full and incremental, full on weekend, incremental weeknights.
below is the biggest problem SYSINDEXES :(. a few other tables had problems but DBCC with repair_allow_data_loss has fixed those with 'hardly' any data loss. What can I do here?

How Do You Determine An Index Is Unique From Sysindexes?
Mar 17, 2002I need to write a script which will respond differently if a table's index forces uniqueness.
I am using SQL 7.0 and I am using the [sysindexes] table of my database to examine those indexes. I am using the [id] field from the [sysobjects] table for the table I am examining and I am using that [id] field to find like-valued [id] fields in the [sysindexes] table.
My problem is that I can't seem to determine, from an examination of the [sysindexes] table, whether, or not, an index is unique.
When adding an index, and checking the unique property of that index, the values that I get in the [status] field of [sysindexes] are different from the values which are supposed to show, at least according to the sysindexes (T-SQL) entry in SQL Server Books Online.
For instance, I have a table which combines two text fields which comprise the only key on a table. The unique and clustered boxes are checked in the index setup screen. When I look in the [sysindexes] table, the value in the [status] field is 2113554, which is not a value I see in the books online page. According to my books online page, a unique index should have a value of 2 in the [status] field and a clustered index should have a value of 16 in the [status] field. My assumption is that I should see a value of 18 in that [status] field, not 2113554.
I looks like the books online entry might be out-of-date because the field that is labeled [reserved1] in my books online page, is labeled [StatVersion] in my actual [sysindexes] table. That [StatVersion] field looks suspiciously like a Status Version field, possibly indicating that the Status field has undergone some sort of version revision?
Is anyone familiar with this stuff?
Thanks.

Duplicate Names In Sysindexes Table
Mar 29, 2001WHen researching an index name problem, I found duplicate index names in sysindexes, referencing the same table. I notice that one of the indexes has a status = 2097154 and a indid of 2 while the other has a status of 0 and a indid of 0. I believe these are duplicates. Anybody have an idea if these really are and what the status and indid fields mean?

How To Replace Sysindexes And Sysobjects In The Query For Sql Server 2005?
Feb 26, 2008hi all,i was using the system tables namely sysindexes and sysobjects in sql server 2000. But now sql server 2005 is using instead of sql server 2000. Since am using sysindexes and sysobjects, too much time is taking for the execution in sql server 2005. So I need to change the query suitable for sql server 2005.I have read in msdn that the system tables are replaced with corresponding catalog views in sql server 2005. The catelog view for sysobjects is sys.objects. plz check the link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187997.aspxCould anyone please tell me how to replace the sysindexes and sysobjects in the query without rewriting the query too much. If I can replacesysobjects with just sys.objects, then it will be very helpful. Is it possible? And what about sysindexes. Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated!

Name Count
Feb 26, 2007I have an sql command for when you add a new name to the database it counts to see how many of the name entered to the textbox exist in the database. If the count is 0 then it will add the name to the table. Else it displays an error message.
This works fine for inserting a new name but on my update page where you may update the name I have the same code which on button click counts to see how many exist. But if you leave the textbox the same value and click the button the count obviously results in 1 and brings up an error message.
