How To Return Primary Unique Index Key On Insert
May 27, 2002
Hi,
I am making a program in Visual Basic .NET with SQL Server 2000.
I have a table "MyTable" with a primary key named "Id". The primary key is 'Create Unique' checked and 'Index' selected. When I insert all the fields required, except "Id" of course, I need the new record's "Id" in my VisualBasic program, but I don't know how...
I must do one of them, but don't know how either of them:
-Create a trigger on insertion that will send to the user that sended the insert command the "Id" of the record just created.
or
-get the command in Visual Basic that will send the Insert command with a return field ("Id")
Thanks in advance,
Sebastien Anselmo

my table :
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[users] (
[ID] [int] NOT NULL ,
[A1] [nvarchar] (100) NULL ,
[A2] [nvarchar] (100) NULL ,
[A3] [nvarchar] (100) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
i must keep ID columns as primary key
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[users] WITH NOCHECK ADD
CONSTRAINT [PK_users] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[ID]
) ON [PRIMARY]
but now A1+A2 must be unique
how can i do it ?
thank you

Question: I have a test table like this
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test](
[name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[addr] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Test] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[name] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
But when I tried to input my data like
'abc', '123 abc'
'abc ','123 abc'
SQL server won't recognize 'abc' and 'abc ' is a different value if the last character is a space. Is there a way to make it as a different value? I tried to drop the primary and input the data. When I ran a group by the name column, 'abc' show 2 instead of 1. Seems SQL server is trying to ignore the space at the end too.
I also noticed unique index have the same problem too. Please help.

I get this message when doing an insert into :
Msg 2601, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.ElementLocalCharacterised' with unique index 'ElementLocalCharacterised_uq'.
The statement has been terminated.
Now my question is : does this error mean that all inserts are done, despite those where the unique key produced a conflict? Or does it mean that none of the inserts are done (all are rejected because at least one gave a conflict) ?
If the second is the case I would like to know if it is possible to execute the insert into in a way that all inserts are done despite those that raise a conflict?
Thanks a lot for any suggestion !

Im trying to add a record to the DB and then get the primary key for that record. Im doing this but is obviously wrong....
Code:
// set the prepared statement
String sql="INSERT INTO Client(username, country, clientIP, browser, os) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)";
PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
pstmt.setString(1, inUserName);
pstmt.setString(2, inCountry);
pstmt.setString(3, inClientIP);
pstmt.setString(4, inBrowser);
pstmt.setString(5, inOS);
// Insert the row
pstmt.executeUpdate();
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()");
System.out.println("Result "+rs);
Any advice??

I am inserting a record into a table that automatically generatesunique ids (i.e. Primary Key). Is there anyway to return this id. As Iam using this on ASP.net page and I really need the ID to update thepage with the new details.I think on mysql there is something called LAST_INSERT_ID which doesthis.

All,Just want to make sure that I understand what's going on here.I have a table with IGNORE_DUP_KEY set on a unique, multi-columnindex.What I'm seeing is this:1) When performing a BULK INSERT, the UNIQUE index is not beingrespected and rows which violate the unique index are inserted.2) When performing a regular INSERT, the UNIQUE index is beingrespected and rows which violate the unique index ARE NOT inserted.Is this expected behavior.Also, I have some questions, given the index described.Q1) Will a regular INSERT that attempts to insert duplicate data getan error back or just a warning?Q2) How can I set things up so that a BULK INSERT would NOT allowduplicates to be entered into the table?Thanks,Wes Gamble

I have 1 client who keeps running into the following error on the subscriber and merge agents >
€śCannot insert duplicate key row in object 'MSmerge_genhistory' with unique index 'unc1MSmerge_genhistory'.€?
Last time we got this error I ran a reindex on table MSmerge_genhistory on the publisher database, I then successfully generated a new snapshot and the subscribers started to synchronize again. This time around I keep getting the error even after I follow these steps (I also ran all the jobs to clean up replication). The last time I ran into this error I created a job to reindex msmerge_genhistory on a nightly bases in an effort to avoid this problem. Can somebody please provide me with a workaround and also the reason why this error occurs in the first place.
Thank you in advanced,

Hi.
I have been recently redesigning my tables - creating FK
relationships from child tables to the PK userid in the Users table.
The specifics of what I did and why can be seen here:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1968856&SiteID=1
But, now I am getting the below error:
Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.lastlogin' with unique index 'IX_lastlogin'.
The statement has been terminated.
Or, for that matter, SavedSearches or any other table where I need to
insert the same userid twice. I can see why I would want to avoid duplicates in the Users table. But, for lastlogin, savedsearches, and
a few of my other tables, the same user may account for multiple rows.
Any suggestions as to where I messed up and how to deal with this?
Thanks.

We are going to use SQL Sever change tracking. The problem is that some of our tables, which are to be tracked, have no primary keys. There are only unique clustered indexes. The question is what is the best way to turn on change tracking for these tables in our circumstances.

I have an issue where I am getting an error on an unique index.
I know why I am getting the error but not sure how to get around it.
The query does a check on whether a unique value exists in the Insert/Select. If I run it one record at a time (SELECT TOP 1...) it works fine and just won't update it if the record exists.
But if I do it in a batch, I get the error. I assume this is because it does the checking on the file before records are written out and then writes out the records one at a time from a temporary table.
It thinks all the records are unique because it compares the records one at a time to the original table (where there would be no duplicates). But it doesn't check the records against each other. Then when it actually writes out the record, the duplicate is there.
How do I do a batch where the Insert/Select would write out the records without the duplicates as it does when I do it one record at a time.
CREATE TABLE #TestTable
(
Name varchar(50),
Email varchar (40)
)
Insert #TestTable (Name,Email) Values('Tom', 'tom@aol.com')

We are developing a project that is expected to hold TB of data and the back end used is SQL Server 2005.
I have the following problem
I have applied Nonclustered index over a column on a table.
Designed a SP for insertion which caters for updation incase the criteria based on the input is met.
The logic goes like this
Incase there exists a row containing the value of the column that is indexed for uniqueness, there should be updation. If not there should be a new row created.
However often there is an error message that is placed above. This happens only on some of the SPs and only on rare occasions.
Can any body tell me if there is any problem with the SQL Server 2005
Thanks in advance

A UNIQUE INDEX must inherently impose a unique constraint and a UNIQUE CONSTRAINT is most likely implemented via a UNIQUE INDEX. So what is the difference? When you create in Enterprise Manager you must select one or the other.

What's the difference in the effect of the followings:
CREATE UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED INDEX
and
ALTER TABLE dbo.titles ADD CONSTRAINT
titleind UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED
I found there're two settings in Indexs/Keys dialog box of the management studio, Is Unique, and Type. The DDL statements above are generated by setting Is Unique to yes plus Type to Index, and just Type to Unique Key, respectively. What's the difference between them?

Hi everyone,
I need urgent help to resolve this issue...
As far as the performance goes which one is better..
Unique Index(col1, col2) OR Unique constraint(col1, col2) ?
Unique constraint automatically adds a unique index
and unique index takes care of uniqueness then whats the use of unique constraint ?
Which one do one use ?
thanks

but Name must be UNIQUE (not 2 times the same name)
how can script it ?

Hi,
Can anyone tell what are the specific scenarios where Unique key is recommened over primary key ?
While designing a database table in what all cases we should think about going for Unique key rather than a primary key.

hello all sorry m asking Database Question .. m talking about SQL SERVER 2005 but i have bit confusion... what difference between a
primary key and a unique key? if m not wrong then primary key doesn't allow NULLs, but
unique key allows NULLs but in many searches comes that primary key doesn't allow NULLs, but
unique key allows one NULL only. what this means 'one NULL only'?? according to my practical we can give more then 1 nulls... plz clear this point???

For our database application we get our primary keys by calling a stored procedure that pass's in the table name and outputs the next primary key number assigned to that table.
ALTER procedure [dbo].[sp_getNextKey]
@TableName char(100),
@NextKey T_ID output
as
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED
begin transaction
select @NextKey = NextKeyValue from T_KeyGenerator where TableName like @TableName
update T_KeyGenerator set NextKeyValue = NextKeyValue + 1 where TableName like @TableName
commit transaction
I then take that primary key, and other data, and insert that into the desired table.
The Problem I am having is that my user's keep getting "cannot insert duplicate key in table".
So I assume that I do not have the transaction set right, or missing something.
I need it to lock the row in the t_keyGenerator table so that no other users can view that row until I update it with the new value and commit the transaction.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I wrote this stored procedure and it works fine, it seems. The questions I have are as follows:
(1) What is the difference between PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE. They seem to pertain to the same behavior. When I used only UNIQUE as qualifier I did not see that the column was marked as primary in the SQL Management Studio.
What I need is for a column to be unique in the sense that it would not allow duplicate values and it must have an INDEX on it. I need it to be descending.
(2) Did I do it right or there are aspects in here I do not quite see?
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CreateTableDailyClose]
@symbol varchar (10) = null
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @SQL VARCHAR(500)
SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE dbo.dailyCl_' + @symbol + ' (
dateTimed DateTime NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
opened float NULL,
high float NULL,
low float NULL,
closed float NULL,
volume int NULL,
adjClosed float NULL
)'
EXEC sp_sqlexec @Sql
SET @SQL = 'CREATE UNIQUE INDEX dateTimed ON dbo.dailyCl_' +
@symbol + ' (dateTimed DESC) '
EXEC sp_sqlexec @Sql
END
Thanks.

if this question is inappropriate here, I apologize (it's at least obliquely related). I have been using ssno as a unique key in a datawarehouse I have been working on because all of the component systems have had it. I now have a database to add where ssno is not available. I have first, last address, city, state,zip and dob.
Question is, how to construct a unique identifier from those components. If not unique, then at least usable?
Again, if this post is wrong here, I apologize
Thanks for any input

Hi
I have a strange requirement in ETL operation. My Source contains only the details table data. Out of it, I have to load the master table and refer the Master table primary key ID to load Details table. I can easily load the Master Table with aggregate transformation. But problem is how to look up the Master Table Primary Key ID to load the Details table, as the master does not contains any unique key to lookup. This may seems to be strange but this is my requirement. You can refer the Source and Destination data model as below. They may give you clear picture. Can you guys help me out on this?
