Hi
I have a table with a user column and other columns. User column id the primary key.
I want to create a copy of the record where the user="user1" and insert that copy in the same table in a new created record. But I want the new record to have a value of "user2" in the user column instead of "user1" since it's a primary key

In a sp I want to select a record from my sql table and copy it to a new record in the same table, changing the value of one of the fields. The value of this field will come from my web page. Is this possible ?
Is there a way of copying/moving a record from one table to another identical table on the same database using ADO.NET I can obviously do it the long way (retrieving a record, then pushing it up using a second SQL command) I was just wondering if there is a way to do it in one database hit using some kind of cool SQL function.
so i have a table which has at least 2 records that are almost similar except for 2 or 3 columns. i want to copy one of the records(just one) into another table. NB the table has 11million plus records with the above mentioned discription. e. g
I have an SQL 2005 Server running with a table called Active and a linked table called Recall.
In my .net APP I wrote a VB code that will copy an existing record and create a duplicate with a new PK ID.
Now here is the problem, The copy record works perfect if I create a new record and then copy that record. I can press my copy button and it will make as many copies as I want. When I try to copy a record that is pre-existing from an import I did about 6 months ago it looks like it works but the record is never copied.
My question come down to, Is their something within SQL that would prohibt a record from being copied ?
If the answer is yes, Can anyone advise where to look to change setting in SQL or what type of correction I should pursue.
I am new to SQL and coming from a foxpro arena, Which is also where the imported data came from..
I need help with a simple problem in a Stored Procedure.
I have two tables. One with some records of any sort with an ordinary autoincreased PK. and one table that stores relations between records in the first table - it mainly has two columns (ParentID, ChildID) which both references the PK in the first table. Nothing odd there I think.
These items are revisioned through a third table (thats not important here). I want to create a copy of these records in the same tables for a new revision of an item in this nonimportant table.
Table 1 1 Record 1 2 Record 2 3 Record 3
Table 2 1 2 2 3
After the operation:
Table 1 1 Record 1 2 Record 2 3 Record 3 4 Record 1 5 Record 2 6 Record 3
Table 2 1 2 2 3 4 5 5 6
Of course this is only a simple example - in reality its a bit more complex but this is enough to present my problem.
The only way I can find to solve this is to use a cursor to loop through the records in the first table, insert them into the same table and use @@scope_identity to create a temporary table with the old and the new values stored together and then use this temp table to copy (and translate) the records from Table 2 to create a copy of them. But it will be rather slow I think since there are lots of items in this table.
First I did it by creating a temporary column in Table1 to store the old ID together with the new ID but as it turns out Im not able to solve it this way:
insert into Table1 ( Name, TmpOldID )
select
Name, PKID
from Table1 where ...
Please help - there must be a simpler and faster way of doing this.
I was wondering if there is a easy way to do this. I got Table Customers, and when a row is changed, deleted, i want to copy the original row to a backup table, so i have the whole history.
The plant number field is a location based field that the application uses to filter/select data on for the end users. What they want to be able to do is to select a record, select another location from a dropdown list and then click a button that duplicates the master record and the detail records to the new location.
I am thinking that a stored procedure passing the JSAID and new Location number to do it, I am just not sure how to get the new ID when I go to copy the detail records.
We are building a smart client that ships with it an offline db - Sql Express.
I wanted to check if there is a preferred/recommended approach to deploy the database ? I'm essentially asking between
1. Copying a database file and
2. Creating the database file by connecting to Master and issueing create database etc and then running the scripts as we need it.
Any help will be great,
Thanks,

PS: The app is a multi user app and may be used by multiple windows users on the same machine. So we currently use the Auto Attach feature in the connection string with database files in the Special Application/User Data folder. So we isolate files b/w users.
We have a laptop that has SQL 7 installed on it, and we would like to copy an existing database to the laptop. The laptop does not have any connectivity to our network. I did backup the database on the network, and place the backup copy on a CD. I then was hoping that I could create a new DB on the laptop and restore the copy from the CD. But, I have not been able to figure this out. Can anyone help?
I have a database on the server which is in production and I would like to create another copy and use it for testing purpose. so the application can point to the test database for testing purpose.
What is the best way to do? I guess I have to name the test one with different name right?
can I do it without detach the production one? or just copy the database - tables structures from the currnet one?
How do I create a copy of an existing database using vb.net? I have not been able to find solutions to the problem using vb.net. Can someone please help me. Thanks
All, I am trying to create a copy of an existing database and place on a different sql server for testing purposes. Currently my method of doing this is to create a backup, then restore a database on my new sql server. But here is the problem I am running into. When I look in Enterprise manager I can see all of the stored procedures and tables and data just fine, which is how I would like it. But, when I open up Query Analyzer I am not able to run any queries because it says "invalid object name" error. I know that the object name is correct. I think that I am having a conflict between the users which were carried over from the source backup file and the users that are on my 2 new sql server. If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it. I am stuck at this point. I am guessing it is probably something simple I am just unaware that I need to do.
I have a database that I have been creating and testing. I have added some junk data and some data into lookup tables. Is there a way to create a clean copy of the db and keep the lookup table data? Also will I be able to create the db under a new name?

I am looking to create a script that will go through a table a pick out the necessary columns to create a unique record. Some of the tables that I am working with have 200 plus columns and I am not sure if I would have to list every column name in the script or if they could be dynamically referenced. I am working with a SQL server that has little next to no documentation and everytime I type to mere some tables, I get too many rows back.
I have a database called 'DB1' in SQL Server 2000. I want to create the same database in SQL Server 2005 Express including the original data in tables. How would I do that? I cannot find any option to do this upgrade in SQL Server Management Studio.
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022'; go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.
Hi! I did: alter database mydb set single_user with rollback immediate; exec sp_detach_db @dbname='mydb', @keepfulltextindexfile='true';
then I tried to copy files to new location on other drives, same server but got >>Cannot copy <myfile>: Access is denied Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use<<
I also tried rename of file without success. I also tried with db service stoppet (not preferred) without success.
How to find out, which process locks the files? Best regards
