I am using Master Data Service for couple of months now. I can load, update, merge and soft delete data in MDS. Occasionally we even have to hard delete data from MDS. If we keep on soft deleting records in a MDS table eventually there will be huge number of soft deleted records. Is there an easy way to hard delete all the soft deleted records from all MDS tables in a specific Model.
This probably has been addressed before but I was unable to get the search to work properly on this site. I am needing a script/way of deleting all rows from a DB with the exception of one record left for each row that has duplicate column data. Example : Row 1 Field1 = 12345 Field2 =xxxxx Field 3=yyyyy Field4=zzzzz etc. Row 2 Field1 = 12345 Field2 =zzzzzz Field 3=xxxxxx Field4=yyyyyy etc. Row3 Field1 = 12345 Field2 =20202 Field 3=11111 Field4=zzzzz etc. Row 4 Field1 = 54321 Field2 =xxxxx Field 3=yyyyy Field4=zzzzz etc. Etc. Etc.
I want to be able to find the duplicates for Field1 and then delete all but 1 of those rows.( I don't care which one I keep just so only one is left.) The data in the other fields may or may not be unique.
I know how to find the duplicates it's just the deleting part I am having problems with. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks,

1. I do not know how to loop over all the tables and delete data. 2. the database have database diagram so there are dependency with tables so the delete order is hard to decide.
a solutions is:

I'm using a DTS package to import a large CSV file. There is a particular column that contains text or numbers. I want to delete the row if that column has a number, I've used IsNumeric in the selection portion of the statement, but can't figure out how to use it as part of my where clause.
How can I erase all data from every table in a SQL Server 7.0 database and leave all constraints and relationships in tact? I'm wanting to have just the structure or frame work with no data in any table. There are over 130 tables so I need to automate this. Any Suggestions?
I want to reset my application and delete all the data in all tables.

HiI have a SQL2000 server with 128m rows of data. I want to delete about65m of that. So far I have bcp'ed the relevent data out and put theminto another SQL database.We have a small amount of space for our transaction log so I cannotdelete all 65m rows in one go. So far I have been doing them is 0.5mchuncks, but it is extremly slow.Would a faster way be to bcp the data I wan to keep and truncate thetable and bulk import them in again ?What hapnes to log size in when builk import is happening and is thereanother way of doing this ?Thanks for any help
Hey everyone, Currently I have a problem that with a gridview delete command because the database I currently want to delete from is a PK to 1 other table. So how can I delete from that "Membership" table before I use the gridview to delete from the "Events" table? Here is a very shortened version of the tables Events EventID (PK) Membership MembershipID EventID (FK) UserID (FK) I have to delete ALL the members from the event in the membership table first before I can delete the actual Event...So how can I do that when the gridview only allows you to delete from 1 table, if I understand this correctly. Here is the sqldatasource delete command as of right now. DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [Events_Events] WHERE [EventID] = @original_EventID" Obviously I am getting a error because of the FK. Thanks, Chris
Hi, How do I delete data which is a Foreign Key in another table? For example; string query = "DELETE * from user_details WHERE user_ID = '" +userID.Text+ "'; The user_ID is the Primary Key in the user_details table and also a Foreign Key in other tables. Thank you. (:
The function that is supposed to delete a row, is not working. The function is called, and the windows is refreshed, but the row is not deleted.Can anyone see anything wrong with this code:public static void DeleteBlog(int original_BlogID) { string insertCommand = "DELETE FROM Blog WHERE BlogID = @BlogID"; SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(Blog.ConnectionString); SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(insertCommand, myConnection); command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@BlogID", original_BlogID)); myConnection.Open(); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); myConnection.Close();}
I am trying to delete data from a table prior to populating with new data via a trigger if certain critria matches to eliminate duplicates. I have copied the trigger below. The syntax checks ok but I get any error message saying 'Incorrect syntax near 'GO'. 'ALTER TRIGGER' must be the first statement in a query batch' when I try to save.
Can someone tell me if this is possible please.

Hello,I read several articles of newsgroup about the bulk delete, and I foundone way is to:-create a temporary table with all constraints of original table-insert rows to be retained into that temp table-drop constraints on original table-drop the original table-rename the temporary tableMy purge is a daily job, and my question is how this work on a heavyload operational database? I mean thousand of records are written intomy tables (the same table that I want to purge some rows from) everysecond. While I am doing the copy to temp table and drop the table whathappens to those operational data?I also realized another way of doing the bulk delete is using BCP:1) BCP out rows to be deleted to an archive file2) BCP out rows to be retained3) Drop indexes and truncate table4) BCP in rows to be retained5) Create indexesAgain the same question: When I'm doing the BCP is there any insertionblocking to my original table? What happens to my rows meantime to beinserted?Does BCP acquire an exclusive lock on the table which prevents anyother insertion?Does any one have an experience with a BCP command for querying out 2million records, and how long will it take?I appreciate your help.
I have written code to combine, delete redundant data in my system. The table structure remains the same, except I changed some INTs to TINYINTs.
When I do sp_spaceused, it tells me that number of rows is smaller(which is correct), but the datasize, and index_size is significantly larger AFTER the deletions.
I tried using shrink, but that doesn't seem to change anything.
When I right-click the database, and choose PROPERTIES, it also confirms that the database got significantly larger.
I am confused about how deleting data and changing to TINYINTs could make my database bigger. What would cause this?
In SQL Server 2005 SP1 we have a Transactional Replication with only this property in the articles:
Action: Delete data...
Ant this property in the publication:
Don't send schema changes
We have in the foreign keys NOT FOR REPLICATION = NO (Exigir para replicacion = "Si" in Spanish).
We have one problem and one doubt:
The problem is that when the sincronization goes wrong the table in the suscriptor is empty !!!!!. It seems that goes wrong because the foreign keys. The question is = Is necessary that NOT FOR REPLICATION = YES in all the tables?, we don't want any check in the sincronization.
Why the destiny tables appears empty?. Is very dangerous.
Hello, I would like to delete all data from an excel sheet except the headers row. Is there any way to do this using Openrowset with JET or something like that? Thanks Philippe

I am using SQL 2012 SE. I have 2 databases say A and B with same structure and relationships. There are 65 tables in each database. A is already replicating data to database C for 35 tables. Now I need to move data from A to B which is greater than getdate()-1 everyday for all the tables and once the move is done I need to delete this data from A. And the same thing the next day and everyday. Since this is for 65 tables its challenging to identify the insert order. Once the insert order is identified the delete order will be the reverse of it.
Is there a tool or any SP that could generate the insert order script? The generate scripts data only is generating the entire data and these databases are almost 400GB. Some tables have 200Mil+ rows. So it takes forever.

When running the following SQL statements, I get the same results.Though I need to count only -30 days. Both statements below alsoconsider the time of the day as well, which is not desiredDELETE FROM MNT_RWHERE MNT_R.TIMESTAMP < GETDATE()- 30DELETE FROM MNT_RWHERE MNT_R.TIMESTAMP < DATEADD(d, -30, GETDATE())Here is the format of the values in columnMNT_R.TIMESTAMP2005-08-09 06:06:44.5772005-08-09 06:06:46.8102005-08-09 06:06:49.060So, since data are inserted into the MNT_R table every few seconds, mydelete statement will delete different number of rows, according to thetime of the day it runs.Can you please post a SQL query that will not give me this headache?thanx a lot all
