Scenerio:
Its 3pm and a user comes to me and says, she's deleted an invoice with many associated items. I know the affected tables (foreign keys) and I have last nights backup of the db. However I don't want restore the entire db back from last night just the deleted invoice record/s. What is the best practice procedure for accomplishing this?
i have been doing tests and i cannot manage to do this. here is what i have done and am trying to do:
I created a full backup of the adventureworks database
I made some updates to tables.
I created a differential backup.
I done an update update to another table, dropped a table, and done another update.
Lets say in a production envrionment i just realised the table was dropped and i wanted to go to the transaction just before the table was dropped. is this possible, or are all transactions in the log going to be lost? All i have found remotely related to this are marked transactions, but they are not what i am looking for. i want a list of transactions in the log and be able to select one as the backup point ( via SSMS or TSQL). i am not looking for a point in time restore.
Thanks all
In SQL 2008, there is a way to backup a database, but specify the tables backed up, and, during the restore on the destination server, restore only those tables in the database?

Is there any way I can resore a specified set of deleted rows from a table? Most of these rows were created during the course of the day, but at the end a user deleted them accidentally. My latest full backup is from last night, but if I restore it, it will overwrite many other tables that already have correct informaiton entered during the day. Is there any to roll back only the transaction with which the rows were deleted?

I have an SQL .bak file and I would only like to restore specific columns as one of the columns is a free text field and is substantially increasing the size of the file. I can't restore it due to disk space constraints so dropping the column isn't possible if I can't get the table into a database locally.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
does anyone know of a way in which you can backup and restore objects that belong to a specific schema?
So in this example, Id want to only back up and be able to restore the tables that belong to schema 1, leaving Schema2 stuff alone.
--DB
----Schema1.Table1
----Schema1.Table2
----Schema2.Table1
----Schema2.Table2
Thanks in advance,
Andy.
EDIT: I forgot to add that I want to backup the tables and the data contained within.
I'm having problems constructing a query. I need to get a count of emails in my database, but only the emails that appear 2 or more times.

I am not sure where i should post this question since it falls both in Report Server and T-Sql but here goes...
I currently need to run a Report that has only specified records that the client/user wants by clicking the check in the check box next to the record they want. They can pick as many or a few of the records that want then run a report only with the records they indicated they wanted... i am thinking they will need some kind of t-sql statement either a function or temp table but i am not sure if even that...
if anyone has any ideas please reply...
Thanks,

EXAMPLE: Instead of running a report on records 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
they would run the report on records: 2, 5, 6, 9
This is out of my league. I’m hoping to get some good advice from someone experienced in the area. My inquiry is how to best handle large amounts of records, say 500,000 records or so. I am web programming and can’t send all this info from server to client.
Part of the problem is the manner in which the data gets stored. I cannot calculate what records I need to get for a distant page (i.e. if 10 items per page then where is my data getting page #512).
These are the very first five (5) records. First row is the primary key.

3Because records 1 through thirteen had been deleted, the primary keys for the first (5) are no longer 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Had this been the case, a person could easily retrieve page 512, by mathematical calculation.
Page 1 would have been Records 1..10
# 2 = > 11..20
# 512=> 5111..5120.
I already have a program that loads the entirety into an arraylist; then picks out the page of data from the arraylist location. I could rewrite things so that a temporary SQL Table is created – but I don’t know is that a good idea?
All advice welcome - TIA

Dear GroupI wonder whether you can give me a syntax example for a SQL Statement.Lets assume I've a table containing three columns ContactID (Primary Key),Firstname and Lastname.I would like to write a stored procedure which returns me the first tenrecords and increments an outside variable each time it runs.E.g If I run it the first time I pass the variable as 0 and it will returnme the first ten records and returns the variable value 1.When run a second time, I will pass the variable as 1 and it will return merecords 11-20 and sets the variable to 2 and so on...The difficult thing is how to tell to return me records 11-20. I can't usethe ContactID as someone might have deleted a row and e.g. ContactID 18 ismissing. In this case I only would get 9 rows returned. It always should beten.Thanks very much for your time and efforts!Kind Regards,Martin"There are 10 types of people in this world: Those that understand binaryarithmetic, and those that don't."

I have a table with 35,000 records in it. I want to update a value in column A for only the first 5000 records, leaving the value in Column A for the remaining 30,000 records as it is now. What would be the command I would use to update Column A for the first 5000 records.
Thanks,
hello, i have 100,000 records in my table. Out of that what means to me is only 500 records that I want to pass thru and send it to destination.
The data I am trying to transport has a column ID with Not Null values in it.
Please let me know how can we do it,
Can we use a look up for ID from the other tables to just pass thru when it finds an ID match,
Am i correct.

Production database contains the following tables (simplified for example: constraints ignored, etc.) associated with a racing video game’s server.

TABLE [dbo].[User]
(
[UserId]
[bigint] NOT

[int] NULL
-- User’s home country

Assume that rows get written into the event tables at a rate of 1,000 a minute,are never updated once written and currently are only read on a replica/reporting server.
Question Background: Write up a single query that would return the following: List of users and whose “TotalMoneyEarned” value ever grew (between logon events) at a rate of more than 1,000 per minute (we’d consider these suspicious and flag them for later investigation).
For instance, if the sample data were:
-- example of [Events.UserLogon] data -- not the query output we want
EventId UserId TotalMoneyEarned LogonDate
----------- -------------------- ---------------- -----------------------
1 1 1000 2010-10-16 00:19:56.460
2 1 1500 2010-10-16 00:20:56.460
3 1 3000 2010-10-16 00:21:56.460
4 1 10000 2010-10-16 00:29:56.460
Event 1 is okay because there’s nothing to compare it against
Event 2 is okay because the TotalMoneyEarned only grew 500 in a minute
Event 3 should be flagged, as the value grew 1500 in a minute
Event 4 is okay, as it grew 7,000 in 8 minutes (< 1000 per minute)
Query Output (your query should return data in a format like this):
User Flagged Logon Time Rate Since Last Logon (money/minute)
John 2010-10-16 00:21:56 1500
Dave 2010-10-16 00:30:50 3200
Bill 2010-10-16 00:35:23 1000
It is likely that you will need to create sample data for both the User and [Events.Logon] tables. We are looking for a single query that returns data like what is represented in Query Output.
I have a table which is updated daily using a MERGE statement. As records are insert, updated and deleted, I am saving the OUTPUT from the MERGE statement into a history table with a timestamp and action$ column appended to the record.
Using this history table, I'd like to rebuild the data based on specific past date. I was able to create a stored procedure that inspects each record in the history table and apply it to the data in a temp table. The stored procedure solution uses multiple queries to rebuild the data at a point in time. I was curious if there was an easier and more efficient solution using a table function.
If I just use a simple select statement, I find that I have 8286 records within a specified date range.
If I use the select statement to pull records that were created from 5pm and later and then add it to another select statement with records created before 5pm, I get a different count: 7521 + 756 = 8277
Is there something I am doing incorrectly in the following sql?
DECLARE @startdate date = '03-06-2015'
DECLARE @enddate date = '10-31-2015'
DECLARE @afterTime time = '17:00'

We have a "main" SQL 2014 server who imports XML files using SSIS in a datacenter. In remote sites (which are warehouses), there is an instance of SQL 2014 Express. A merge replication is setup, as every operations done on each site must be "forwared" to the main database, as some XML files are generated as output for an ERP system.
Now, the merge replication replicate all the data to the server on each sites. But a specific site don't need the data of every other sites, only the data relevant to itself (which is the warehouse code). Is there a way to replicate only the data relevant to each individual sites to the subscribers? Or is there a better way than replication to accomplish this?
I want to ship 500,000 aged transactions each night to an archive table and delete them from their source table in one or more logical units of work (LUW). Each row is approx 60 bytes and there is only one non clustered index on the source table presently.
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of 3 alternatives. One of them would basically insert the non-aged rows into tempdb, ship the aged records, truncate the table and then insert the tempdb records back into their source all in the same LUW.
For this alternative, I'd at least like to turn off logging when the records get inserted into tempdb as I dont see any value in logging that part of the activity. Is this possible?

Hi there !
Thanks for taking the time to read this thread.
I don't know whether anyone has this problem, but I am definitely not using the right keywords to search for a thread.
My situation is this...
I have a dataset that has values to fill cells to multiple tables in a report.
However, I only want to select specific data from the dataset to fill textboxes and others.
I cannot change the stored procedure, but the sample of the data is shown below:-
Row Stat Val
0 dtRpt1 02/01/2005
1 Value1 1
2 Value2 2000
3 dtMailSent 02/28/2005
4 Value3 0
5 Value4 5
6 Value5 658
I know it looks weird, but the row really represents which "row" or textbox is it to fill with the Val. The Stat Column is just a way to make sure that I am filling the right values.
so my new report would have multiple tables to denote different categories.
In my first table, I tried putting the cells as follows:-
(expressions are highlighted in italics and bold)
TextBox1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =0, Fields!Val.Value,"")
Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =1, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =2, Fields!Val.Value,"")
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =3, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =4, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow3 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =5, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow4 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =6, Fields!Val.Value,"")
I only expect this report to print out one page holding the previous values.
However, it ended up printing like this
----------------------------------------------------------
Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 1
DetailRow2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 2000
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 02/28/2005
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 0
DetailRow3
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3 5
DetailRow4
Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4 658
------------------------------------------------------
I tried putting it into the headerrows instead of DetailRows, and it ended up printing the last value.
Is there anyway to do this ? print all the values out in one table ? I tried using textboxes, but I think I got my expression wrong.
Is this the correct expression ?
=IIF((Fields!Row.Value,"Dataset") =1, (Fields!Val.value, "Dataset"), "")
and it give me an error
The value expression for the textbox textbox5 contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'FalsePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.
Appreciate any advice or suggestion for this scenario !
Thanks!

I am very early on in developing a website to track issues with projects which is tied to a SQL database. I have my Projects Table, my Users Table, and am creating a third table to track issues. I'm wondering what is the best way to assign specific users to specific data/projects. The user should only be able to view & update the projects assigned to him. He should not be able to see other projects. What is the best way to assign projects/data to the users to make sure they are only viewing their data?
