SQL Server 2008 :: Deleting Data (rows) From Table To Reclaim Space?
Feb 11, 2015I have a table 300+GB. it holds 10 years of Data. I need to delete 5 years of data and put it to another server so I can have more space.
If I delete 5 years of data, Transaction log gets so huge and size of the database even gets bigger because of the .ldf file which even gets bigger! I think I can shrink the log file and the data file. Is this the best way to do it?

Sep 21, 2015I have deleted nearly 30 million rows from a table. But however when I used the sp_spaceused command to calculate the data occupied by the table I don't see any difference in the data size of the table. In fact the data has increased to few MBs after the deletion, but not much.

Compare Values In Consecutive Rows And Print Rows Based On Some Conditions
May 8, 2008 I have the following variables VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime, OdometerReading, TransactCity, TransactState.
VehicleID is the unique vehicle ID, OdometerReading is the Odometer Reading, and the others are information related to the transaction time and location of the fuel card (similar to a credit card).
The records will be first grouped and sorted by VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime and OdometerReading. Then all records where the Vehicle ID and TransactDate is same for consecutive rows, AND TransactCity or TransactState are different for consecutive rows should be printed.
I also would like to add two derived variables.
1. Miles will be a derived variable that is the difference between consecutive odometer readings for the same Vehicle ID.
2. TimeDiff will be the second derived variable that will categorize the time difference for a particular vehicle on the same day.
My report should look like:
VehID TrDt TrTime TimeDiff Odometer Miles TrCity TrState

Deleting Rows
Apr 21, 2008
I have an issue that I don't know how to figure out.
I have a table that has a list of files in it. This table also has GUIDs associated with each file.
Some of these files were found in the emporary internet files folder on the systems scanned.
I want to remove all rows where the file path contains emporary internet files
The problem is that there are other tables where the file GUIDs are referrenced.
So when I try this:
DELETE FROM osScanFile
WHERE (FilePath LIKE '% emporary internet files\%')
I get an error saying that "The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "blah blah blah". ...
Basically there are rows in other tables that reference the rows I'm trying to delete in this table.
So how do I get it to delete not only the rows with the search criteria in it but also all rows from all other tables where the rows are linked?
Thanks,
Terry
Deleting Duplicate Rows
May 6, 2008I have a csv file that I need to import daily into a SQL Server 2005 table. Much of the table contents could just be overwritten with the new csv file, however there are a set of Rows within the table that need to be appended to , rather than overwritten.
There is no Primary Key in the csv file that can be used.
I'm not sure this is the best approach, but what I have been trying to do, is append the entire csv file to the existing table, and then go back and delete the duplicates.
When I run the Delete, it does delete the majority of the records, but leaves a couple hundred behind. The number left behind varies with each run, can't seem to identify a pattern here. Running the Delete a second time does clean up the rows left behind in the first execution of the Delete, and gives the result I want.
Any thoughts as to why this needs to be run twice? Or is a better approach available?
Here is my code -
SELECT [Pkg ID], [Elm (s)], [Type Name (s)], [End Exec Date], [End Exec Time], dupcount=count(*)
INTO temppkgactions
FROM pkgactions
GROUP BY [Pkg ID], [Elm (s)], [Type Name (s)], [End Exec Date], [End Exec Time]HAVING count(*) > 1
DELETE TOP (SELECT COUNT(*) -1 FROM dbo.temppkgactions WHERE dupcount > 1 )
FROM dbo.pkgactions
DROP TABLE temppkgactions

Deleting Rows From Many Tables
May 19, 2006What I'm trying to do is delete a user and all their related information within the other tables. I'm not wanting to delete the table, just one column with that user and their related information. So my Primary_Key is UserID within the table [alumni] and my three Foreign_Keys are CommentID, PhotoID, and AlbumID within the tables [comments], [photos], and [albums]. Here is some of the code that I have:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:SoderquistString %>"
DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [alumni] WHERE [UserID] = @UserID"
SelectCommand="SELECT [UserID], [UserName], [FirstName], [LastName], [State] FROM [alumni] WHERE ([State] = @State)">
<DeleteParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="UserID" Type="Int32" />
</DeleteParameters>
<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter ControlID="DropDownList1" Name="state" PropertyName="SelectedValue"
Type="String" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
The users are set up in GridView form. Is there some type of DELETE command that I need to be writing that is different than the one above? I have tried adding onto the following DELETE statment:
DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [alumni] WHERE [UserID] = @UserID
DELETE FROM [photo] WHERE [UserID] = @UserID;
DELETE FROM [album] WHERE [UserID] = @UserID;
DELETE FROM [comment] WHERE [UserID] = @UserID;
...but that doesn't work...and doesn't look right. I would really appreciate anyones suggestions or help that you may be able to provide. Thank you!
Deleting Duplicate Rows
Feb 11, 1999Hai
I have problem in deleting duplicate rows. I have a identity column in my table, if I try to use correlatted sub query with Delete command it gives error.
The other problem I have is I have a date column in my table and update that column with current date and time. If use a query to fetch a records on a particular day , it does not return any rows
select * from rates where ch_date >='02/11/99' and ch_date<='02/11/99'
If I use convert also there is some other problems. Is there any way to force date checkings to be done excluding time.
Thanks
Deleting Some Of Duplicate Rows
Nov 17, 1998This is an imaginary problem while discussing ROWID in ORACLE.
Consider a table without primary key, unique key, uniuqe index.
A row has inserted into the table many times.
I want to delete all but one dulicated rows. With any 'where' clause all rows(duplicated)
will be deleted. In ORACLE i can achieve this using ROWID as follows:
Delete from Table_name
where < all column values >
and ROWID <> ( Select max(rowid) from Table_name where < all column values > )
How can this be achieved in MS SQL Server 6.5 ?
According to Dr. Codd's Golden rules for RDBMS one is that
One should be able to reach each data value in the database by using
table name, row idenfication value and column name.
Does MS SQL Server 6.5 satisfy this requirement ?
Also How many of Dr. Codd's 13 Golden Rules for RDBMS does MS SQL Server 6.5
Satisfy? Which doesn't ?
Any discussion about Codd's Rules is welcome.

Deleting Duplicate Rows
Feb 27, 2014In my database, I have a table "tbl_c_extract" that consists of 4 columns that look the following. I'm looking at a daily batch of around 4000 records, of which 150 are likely to be duplicates.
Emp_No varchar(255), Proprietary_ID varchar(255), LeaveDateActual datetime
123456, E123456, 2014-09-27 00:00:00.000
213832, E123456, 2099-12-31 00:00:00.000
213836, E123456, 2014-01-31 00:00:00.000
In the example above, I need to remove 2 of the entries, leaving only the one that with the maximum leave date. In this case, those without a leave date have the 2099 entry.
Using CTE works exactly as I want it to, however SQL Server Agent doesn't seem to like the use of CTE..
Code:
WITH CTE (Proprietary_ID, LeaveDate, RN)
AS
(
SELECT Proprietary_ID, LeaveDate,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY Proprietary_ID ORDER BY Proprietary_ID, LeaveDate) AS RN
FROM tbl_c_extract
)
DELETE
FROM CTE
WHERE RN > 1

But I get this error message:

Deleting Table Rows And Optimization
Dec 10, 2001i have 6 read only tables that every night all the data gets dumped and a new updated copy of the data is copied over. the tables range from 500,000 rows to almost 4 million. i have indexes set up on the fields i use to query against. my questions are
1.since i dump all the data every night and replace it, do i need to rebuild the indexes every night or is that done after the data is reentered?
2.i want to use a fill factor on the table since it is read only, but will dumping the data every night and reinputting it have adverse affects with a fill factor?
3.should i be shrinking the database or defragging it everynight cause of my data dumps and reloads?
thanks in advance

Deleting Thousands Of Rows In A Table
Apr 10, 2003How can I quickly delete thousands of rows in a table (SQL2000) according a query and without blowing up the log file? For instance executing the query:
Delete from transactions
WHERE transactiondatestamp < DATEADD (m,-4,GETDATE())
increases my log file to almost 6GB before job was done an normal size was re-obtained. In addition it took a long to time to get the job done.
With the command truncate table I cannot use query unfortunately but this would be faster.
Anyone has an idea?

Deleting Duplicate Rows In SQL Table
Nov 16, 2007I have an SQL tables [Keys] that has various rows such as:
[ID] [Name] [Path] [Customer]
1 Key1 Key1 InHouse
2 Key2 Key2 External
3 Key1 Key1 InHouse
4 Key1 Key1 InHouse
5 Key1 Key1 InHouse
Obviously IDs 1,3,4,5 are all exactly the same and I would like to be left with only:
[ID] [Name] [Path] [Customer]
1 Key1 Key1 InHouse
2 Key2 Key2 External
I cannot create a new table/database or change the unique identifier (which is currently ID) either. I simply need an SQL script I can run to clean out the duplicates (I know how they got there and the issue has been fixed but the Database is still currently invalid due to all these duplicate entires).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Problem With ID Update After Deleting Rows
Jul 18, 2007Hi,
I hope some of you can help me with that
I made an application that insert some data to MS SQL 2005 DB Express Edition. One of columns in my database store text. The content of that field must, beyond the existing text, append the current id to its text string. Practically, it means that if on row nr 15 I store text value "15text", on the next row i will store "16text". I figured out that I can get value of max ID by creating following stored procedure.
USE [tracking_db]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[spMaxId] Script Date: 07/18/2007 09:31:44 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spMaxId]
@maxId integer output
as
SELECT @maxId= MAX(id) FROM FILES_TABLE
Once i get the maxID value i simply concat max id and string like:
string.Concat(max_id.ToString(), file_name);
where "max_id is integer return value from stored procedure and "file_name" is a string to rename like "max_id+file_name"
Two problems occur!!!
Problem nr 1.
Since I use to insert 10 new rows each time, the values from 0-9 are appended to text like "(0-9)text"
Problem nr 2.
If I delete some rows, ID does not get update. It means that after deleting all rows from table, next inserted item gets last existed ID before delting +1. New inserted item should get value 1 since table is empty after deleting all rows from it!!!
Hope some of you has any idea what to do
