I have 2 tables say table1 and table2 with the same structure. Each record
is identified by a field 'SerialNo'. Now there should be a total of 500000
records in both tables with serialno from 1 to 500000. Either a record is in
table1 or table2. I want to find records (or SerialNo's) that are in
neither table (if deleted by accident etc). What would be the sql query?
I'm using SQL 6.5
thx
Im wondering if it is possible to write a procedure that check two identical tables for any missing records. The table design is excatly the same, but some records (of the 40,000) have not copied over to the second table.
Any help would be great, cheers.
I have two tables of book information. One that has descriptions of thebook in it, and the isbn, and the other that has the book title,inventory data, prices, the isbn.Because of some techncal constraints I won't get into now, I can'tcombine them both into one table. No problem. Things are going fine aslong as there is a description in the one table to corrispond to theisbn and other data in the other table.However, about half of the products are not yet entered into thedescrition table. I'd like to run a sql query that pulls up all theisbns that don't exist in the other. In other words, I'd like to get aquery that tells me exactly which isbns do not yet have descrition datain them. I know there is some sql that says to search from one filewhere the number does not exist in the other, but it slips my mind. Cansomeone help me on this please?Thank you!Bill*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).
Yesterday, I had an occurence where someone (one of our developers :) ) deleted many vital rows in a database. I was able to recover via a backup but I'd like to see what was run to delete those rows, when and who if possible? I have the transaction log and the _log.ldf.
Can I read those somehow to find out this information? I have since added auditing to said tables, but I'd really like to go back and see what happened?
I do know about Lumigent, but is there a different production/solution?
Thoughts?
Thank you

Does anybody know if SQL 2000 has a tool to roll back (udelete) records?

Hello All.
Is there a way to check who has deleted records from my SQL tables? I asked because I notice records keep disappearing from my tables recently for no reason. The DB is only accessible by a few IT staff. Business users have no direct access to it so they can't do any harm and there is no application that update these record missing tables.
I don't need to know the exact records that have been removed. I need info on who has made a deletion activity on which table, date and time is good enough.
Thank you.
Best regards

Hi all,
I have a db with 15 tables and I want to keep records that have been deleted.
Now I don't know where to start:
Must I keep the same structure as the main db or can I also dump all the data in one table?
what are the advantages and disatvantages of the named possibilities.
If someone knows anything else please help me out.
Thnx in advance
I'm running a DB using MSDE (2000) that is interfaced by 2 differentades running on PCs with Access 2000 Runtime. One of the ADEs is apackage accounting system that is very solid and stable, the other isa custom application that I wrote (much less solid and stable). Thecustom app only deals with a select few tables in the database, andthe table in question is not one of those.With alarming regularity(daily), records are getting deleted out of aparticular table. I've set up a couple of dummy records in the tableand put a delete trigger on the table that creates record in a 'log'table that tells me the user and the time that the records aredeleted.The deletion (all records in the table) always occurs during businesshours (never over the weekend or at night) and the user responsiblevaries among 3 or 4 different users. 2 of those users don't even haverights to that table, so I'm really confused how those logins couldcause a delete on the table they don't have access to!??!As far as I can tell, this is only happening to this particular table( I hope!).Is there a way that I can get more information on the process ormachine or anything else that is behind the deletion?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use SSIS to upsize Visual FoxPro data. The data is in free tables. I'm using the VFP OLE DB provider in a connection pointed at a folder. When I click on preview, I see the right data--deleted records are not included. However, when I run the package, the deleted records are sent to SQL Server 2005. I can pack all the tables prior to executing the package as a work around, but I would think I shouldn't have to. I don't see any way to detect which records are marked for deletion in the data flow. I've tried to specify in the connection string Deleted=Yes, but to no good effect. Also, as I mentioned, when I preview the data, the deleted records are not included, so the connection seems to work properly .
Steps to reproduce:
In VFP:
CREATE TABLE Test (Field1 N(1))
INSERT INTO Test (Field1) VALUES (1)
INSERT INTO Test (Field1) VALUES (2)
GO TOP IN Test
DELETE
In SQL Server:
CREATE TABLE Test (Field1 Numeric(1))
In Visual Studio SSIS:
Create connection object using VFPOleDB provider pointed to the folder with the Test.DBF.
Create a connection object to SQL Server 2005 pointed to the database with the test table.
Create a DataFlow task with the OLE DB Source and the SQL Server destination. When you preview the Source object you will see just one record, but when you execute the package, you see 2 records transferred and 2 records are actually in SQL Server. Seems like a bug.
We occasionally use TruncateTable to delete the contents of a number of tables on our SQL Server 7 database. We then build them anew from an outside source. I am finding that the size of the database (and corresponding backup file) has grown significantly. As I understand it, the space representing the deleted records is retained by the database. I have investigated using various DBCC commands, to no avail. Does anyone have a clue as to how I can recover this lost space? ... Thanking you in advance.

Hi I am using sql server 2005 express and would like to keep all my fields from being both updated and deleted.
In other words, once I create a new record, I would like to have it protected from being deleted and I dont want the field values to be updated/changed from the values initially entered. Is there a way to this without running triggers or changing database permissions and user roles?
I tried making the database read-only, but then of course i cant add new records.
Thanks

Hi all..
How to reflect deleted records in Sql Server table to the Dataset?
-- using a web service --
Thank you..
I want to delete some records from dbo.ABC table using where clause.
And would like to restore the deleted records back into the same table.
I am having a hard time understanding triggers. My goal is to put a trigger on table x where records are UPDATED or DELETED. When this trigger fires I need to take the record ID and put the ID modified record into table y with the date modified. so basically logging the recordid changed with the getDate()
I don't quite understand how to get the rowid of the modified record.
Hi,
I have an SSIS package that runs each day from a live data source to create a data mart, which is then used for various things including SSAS and SSRS.
The problem is that certain records that will eventually go on to form fact tables are deleted from the live system (not a very robost database in the first place, hence the SSIS!) but these are not reflected in the SSIS transformation, creating plus figures when compared to the live system.
I currently use type 1 slowly changing dimension processes in each data flow (of which there are about 35) but I realise that this only updates records and does not delete.
The solution I have in place is to truncate the fact tables in the mart before the run starts using an Execute SQL task. This solves the problem though to me seems a little heavy-handed and renders the slowly changing dimension processes redundant (as it is currently only run once a day).
My question is, is there a better method of dealing with the above scenario? If there isn't, it would be a nice feature to add to future versions (*nudge nudge*).
Thanks in advance :-)
We have an app that uses triggers for auditing. Is there a way to know the order that the records were inserted or deleted? Or maybe a clearer question is.... Can the trigger figure out if it was invoked for a transaction that "inserted and then deleted" a record versus "deleted and then inserted" a record? The order of these is important to our auding.
Thanks!

When i debug a trigger is it possible to add a WATCHon the INSERTED or DELETED?I think not, at least I couldn't figure out a way to do so.Does someone have a suggestion on how I can see the values?I did try to do something likeINSERT INTO TABLE1(NAME)SELECT NAME FROM INSERTEDbut this didn't work. When the trigger completed and Iwent to see the TABLE1, there were no records in it.Are there any documents, web links that describe waysof debugging the trigger's INSERTED and DELETED?Thank you
View 11 Replies View RelatedCan the deleted records be recovered in Simple Recovery model database? Are the delete logs present there?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI guess this is a fairly common topic but couldn't find the right words to find anything in a search.
What I'm getting at, is there any tsql functions or combination of commands for the following.
You have identity columns in your tables, if you set the a seed and autoincrement, I enter in rows 1 -10 and then I delete 4, 6, 7, 8.
My next new record uses 11. Is there any logic that allows you to check and reuse 4, 6, 7 & 8 described above? Not looking for something that consists of having to create an extra ID table for each table and handle configuring what the next available number is everytime an Insert or delete is called.
Thanks.
