View 8 RepliesI'm trying to join 3 tables in an outer join since I am loosing records that need to be included if I only use an inner join. I am pulling data from an MSDE database using the microsoft query tool.
The problem is that I get the message that I can't use an outer join on a query with more than 2 tables, but that can't be right can it?
I'm a SQL code novice so any help would be greatly appreciated!
SELECT
Article.articleId
, Article.articleName
, Article.articleStatus
, Articlegroup_2.ArticlegroupId
, Articlegroup_2.g2_key
, Articlegroup_2.g2_name
, articleGroup.articleGroupId
FROM
HIP.dbo.Article Article, HIP.dbo.articleGroup articleGroup, HIP.dbo.Articlegroup_2 Articlegroup_2
WHERE
articleGroup.articleGroupId = Article.articleGroupId AND
Article.articleGroupId2 = Articlegroup_2.Articlegroup_2_Id
I'm trying to join 2 tables in an outer join, but MS Query won't let me do this because I have another 2 tables included in an inner join ("only two tables are allowed in an outer join"). I am pulling data from an MSDE database using the microsoft query tool.
I'm a SQL code novice so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here is my existing SQL query (without the new outer join table):
SELECT
Lead_.Country, Lead_.Company_Name, Employee.Full_Name, Lead_.Rn_Create_Date, Lead_.Marketing_Project_Name, Employee_1.Full_Name, Lead_.Comments
FROM
ProductionED.dbo.Employee Employee, ProductionED.dbo.Employee Employee_1, ProductionED.dbo.Lead_ Lead_
WHERE
Employee.Employee_Id = Lead_.Account_Manager_Id AND Employee_1.Employee_Id = Lead_.Created_By_Employee_Id AND ((Lead_.Market_Segment='new'))
Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are:
1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup.
1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types.
1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data.
When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions,
Bob
Hi,
I'm trying to create a database that takes specific information from a number of databases on different servers to make some reporting that we have much easier.
I'm pretty new to SQL so I'm not sure of the best way to proceed. I read an article that suggested I use the OPENROWSET command. The problem is, the version of SQL that came with one of the programmes we use is limited and will not allow you to turn on the allow "Ad Hoc distributed Queries" so the SLQ statement will not execute.
I'm confused why it won't let me to connect through ODBC as I've created a web page that selects data from this database with no problems!
Here is the SQL statement that I've written to make sure it is the correct one (on the msdn library page it said that this was the ODBC connection):
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL','DRIVER=(SQL Server);SERVER=APPOLOACT7;UID=sa;PWD=***************',
'SELECT * FROM MDCTestAndDev.dbo.TBL_CONTACT') AS a
I've also created the ODBC connection using the tool on Administration Tools>Data Sources ODBC
Any help would be greatly appreciated (also any ways of selecting from one database and inserting it into another will be helpfull)
Thanks
I have a requirement where in i have around 15 different flat files , filenames are fixed but folder path can be changed(i think i should use a variable for folder path). These 15 files data should go to their respective tables in the database.
Whether I need to create separate data flow task for each file or separate package? In addition to these, example : while importing product data into product table, if product ID already exists, we need to ignore it and upload only the new records.
I have an excel file that has multiple sheets and I need to import data from each separate sheet to a separate table using SSIS.Â
E.g. Sheet A data should go to Table A and Sheet B data should go to Table B and so on. Is it possible to do this with out using script task.
I have just taken over the job of sorting out a rather poorly designed database. It looks like it was 'upsized' from an access database to the SQL server. The SQL server is the 2000 version.
Now I am trying to generate a report of what the students in the database are owing by referencing the Receipt table and then all the available payment methods and allocations. I was wondering if there was anyway to work out data being displayed twice (Let me demonstrate)
Note1: All the tables are linked by a key of ReceiptNo. From what I can see there is a table for every payment type and allocation but no link between the two other then the receipt number.
Using the query:
SELECT T_Receipt.ReceiptNo, T_cheque.Amount AS Chq_Amount, T_credit.Amount AS Cre_Amount, StandingOrder.Amount AS Stn_Amount,
T_BankTransfer.amount AS Bnk_Amount, T_cash.TotalAmount AS Cas_Amount, T_RentPayment.AmountPayed AS Ren_Paid,
T_AdminPayment.AmountPaid AS Adm_Paid, T_InternetBilling.Total AS Int_Paid, T_Utilities.AmountPaid AS Util_Amount,
T_InvoicePayment.amountPaid AS Inv_Paid, T_OtherPayments.paymentAmount AS Oth_Paid, T_parkingBill.paymentAmount AS Prk_Paid,
T_TelephoneBills.TelephoneCredit AS Tel_Paid, T_DepositPayment.[Deposit payment] AS Dep_Amount, T_Receipt.cancelled AS Canceled,
T_Receipt.RemittanceReceiptNo AS Rec_Ref, T_Receipt.Student
FROM T_Receipt INNER JOIN
T_DepositPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_DepositPayment.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_RentPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_RentPayment.RentPaymentNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
StandingOrder ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = StandingOrder.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_TelephoneBills ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_TelephoneBills.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_parkingBill ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_parkingBill.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_OtherPayments ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_OtherPayments.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_InvoicePayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_InvoicePayment.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_cash ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_cash.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_AdminPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_AdminPayment.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_BankTransfer ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_BankTransfer.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_Utilities ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_Utilities.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_credit ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_credit.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_cheque ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_cheque.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_InternetBilling ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_InternetBilling.ReceiptNo
GROUP BY T_Receipt.Student, T_Receipt.ReceiptNo, T_cheque.Amount, T_credit.Amount, StandingOrder.Amount, T_BankTransfer.amount, T_cash.TotalAmount,
T_AdminPayment.AmountPaid, T_InternetBilling.Total, T_Utilities.AmountPaid, T_InvoicePayment.amountPaid, T_OtherPayments.paymentAmount,
T_parkingBill.paymentAmount, T_TelephoneBills.TelephoneCredit, T_Receipt.cancelled, T_Receipt.RemittanceReceiptNo,
T_DepositPayment.[Deposit payment], T_RentPayment.AmountPayed, T_Receipt.Student
HAVING (T_Receipt.Student LIKE N'06%')
Which gives a result of:
RecNo.
30429
Cheque
250
Deposit
250
30429
679.98
250
This is fine but when I do analysis on this it appears as though the student has paid two deposit payments. I was wondering with out querying each table independently from an application if there was a criteria to specify that I only get one deposit result.
So as such say, give me all the payments but I only want one result from the other tables. I though about discrete but that wouldn't work here.
Hi!
I have 7 source databases and one target database, all using the same structure. The structure is made of 10 tables, with foreign key constraints.
I need to merge the source databases into the target (which won't have any data before that process, but will already have the correct schema), and to keep the relationships between the records.
I know how to iterate over the source databases (with SMO foreach), but I'd like to know if someone can advise the best copy method for that context in SSIS ? (I don't want to keep the primary keys, but I need to keep the relationships...)
Any pointer most welcome!
best regards and thanks

I have a couple of hundred flat files to import into database tables using SSIS.
The files can be divided into groups by the format they use. I understand that I could import each group of files that have a common format at the same time using a Foreach Loop Container.
However, the example for the Foreach Loop Container has multiple files all being imported into the same database table. In my case, each file needs to be imported into a different database table.
Is it possible to import each set of files with the same format into different tables in a simple loop? I can't see a way to make a Data Flow Destination item accept its table name dynamically, which seems to prevent me doing this.
I suppose I could make a different Data Flow Destination item for each file, in the Data Flow. Would that be a reasonable solution, or is there a simpler solution, or should I just resign myself to making a separate Data Flow for every single file?

How to insert single row/multiple rows into multiple tables by using single insert statement.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to be able to bulk insert a bunch of tables from their corresponding flat file. I have created an XML file (see below) which has the file name/table name pair at each node. I then created a ForEachLoop task and used the Node enumeration type and the following OuterXpathString: ReferenceFiles/File. At this point I get lost. How do I pass the 2 inside node values (file name and table name) to variables which I can then use as expressions for the bulk insert task inside the Foreach?
Here is XML file:

I used the data export wizard to export a single table to a single flat file (multiple wasn't allowed). I saved the package as a *.dtsx file which I'm attempting to edit to add the additional tables.
Creating additional sources is fairly easy copy of the first source and change to the table name.
I've tried copying the destination connection and changing to a new text file, but can't get past having to add each column manually to the new destination.
How can I duplicate the mapping that must be taking place in the wizard in the *.dtsx editing environment?
This seems like a simple / common task, but I've been unable to find a solution.
Thanks, Richard

Hello,
I am in the progress of designing a new section of my database and was thinking of creating a hole new database instead of just creating tables inside the database. My question is can you JOIN multiple tables in an SQL Statement from multiple databases. Ie, In the Management program I have a database called 'Convention' and another one called 'Services', inside the two databases there are many tables. Can I link say tblRegister from Convention to tblUser in Services?
Thanks
i want to select all the user tables within the database and then all the records with in each table.

Hi,
I have searched but not found quite the best way to look at this so far..
I have an application that outputs data to several text files (up to 30). These have commonality by an object name, but then contain completely different column data.
In DTS I had each of the source text file connections going to one OLE DB connection and then individual transform data tasks pointing to the one OLE DB connection.
Looking at SSIS, it would appear that I would need to have one source and one destination for each of these and therefore 30 parallel data flows?
Just wondering if there is a neater way of doing this??
It is a regular data import that happens a few times a day - the text files are named the same as the SQL tables - ie app_userdata.txt goes to app_userdata table.
Hope that explains ok and thanks in advance.

Hello all,
Being still a relative newcomer to SQL Server (people may say I'm trying to take on too much being somewhat inexperienced once they read about the problem I'm trying to tackle, but alas...) I'm running into the following problem: I need to create tables in my user database on the fly (using Stored Procedures) so that each table can be created many times in the database but only once for every user. The tables should be named something like "username.Table1", "username.Table2" etc. as opposed to "dbo.Table1". I then want to use the stored procedure from .NET/C# in my web application, so that i can create the complete set of usertables for each of my clients.
Now, I tackled the stored procedure part (that is, it creates all the tables I need with all the parameters I want) and am able to use it from my web application (which took some time to learn but proved quite easy to do), but I cannot seem to get it coupled to the current user (instead of the dbo). Every time I trie, the tables are created as dbo.Table1 and when I try to create a new set, it gives a warning ("table with name such and so already exists..."). I made sure to log in as an authenticated user (using forms authentication) before trying to create the tables but this gives the aforementioned result.
What am I doing wrong? I use Visual Web Developer Express, SQL Server 2005 Express and IIS version 5.1
Please help :-D

Currently, I am running SQL Server 2000 with the default instance. I know SQL2K can run up to 16 instances simultaneously. I would like to add another instance but am unable to find documentation on how to add it. Books online tells me "about" multiple instances, but not how to set it up. I've obviously missed something somewhere. Can someone please direct me to a document that will help explain "how" to add another instance?
Thanks for your time and your help.

I have a question about T-SQL scripting:
I want to create several databases with identical properties: size, name (database1, database2, database5, databaseN), path, etc, and I would want to automate the process
So, I downloaded a good T-SQL script from the Internet, which automates the process of creation of ONE database
The problem is I would like to "put" this script within a bucle sentence; I mean, within a FOR or WHILE sentence, so I could create, for example, thirty identicales DBs without prompting me for the database name (without desktop interaction, I mean)
Here you have the generical T-SQL script:
USE master
GO
CREATE DATABASE emc
ON
( NAME = 'emc',
FILENAME = D:MSSQL7DATAemc.mdf',
SIZE = 5 )
LOG ON
( NAME = 'emc',
FILENAME = 'DMSSQL7DATAemc.ldf',
SIZE = 1 )
GO
If any oy yoy have some similar script for doing this, I would highly appreciate.
Many thx.

Hey
I am creating a database application that is accessed through a .NET front end.
What I want to do is run a SQL script that will create my DB, create my indexes and enforce my constraints (all of which I have done) but I also want to create my stored procedures in the same script also.
When I merge all my stored procedures (about 16) into one file and run it in SQL Query Analyzer I get multiple errors but the one that is coursing me the most bother is
‘Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure procedureName, Line 134
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'procedure'.’
What does this mean and why can’t I run more than once Stored Procedure at once?

How can I achieve this?
Is there a way to read from a table to get values that will be contained within a "where" clause of another SQL statement that can be ready one by one(meaning the same sql statement will be executed mutliple times) that will export a tab delimted file?
