It just seems like I should be able to use a 4 part naming convention to compare database tables that exist on 2 servers. It isn't always possible to link dbs because of security. Is there any other way to query between servers?
Thanks!
I have listed below a sql statement generated by a MS Access query. The Access is the frontend, using a SQL Server 2005 View as the backend. I have already corrected the obvious differences between Access and SQL Server syntax, such as replacing UCase$ with UPPER,
replacing '_' with '.' between the db owner and view name, replacing IIF with IF, and replacing "D" with 'D' and "E" with 'E', but it still generates syntax errors (of course, with no explanation). As you can see, it is SUMing a field based on whether the value is 'D' or 'E', then using those calculated values to calculate a percentage. Can anyone out there let me know what I'm doing wrong?
SELECT dbo_vwDisplayUserList.DEPT_DESC, Sum(IIf(UCase$([Essential_Code])="D",1,0)) AS Department_Essential, Sum(IIf(UCase$([Essential_Code])="E",1,0)) AS EOC_Essential, Count(dbo_vwDisplayUserList.UserID) AS Total_Employees, Int([Department_Essential]/[Total_Employees]*100) AS [%Department_Essential], 100-Int([Department_Essential]/[Total_Employees]*100) AS [%EOC_Essential]
FROM dbo_vwDisplayUserList
GROUP BY dbo_vwDisplayUserList.DEPT_DESC
ORDER BY dbo_vwDisplayUserList.DEPT_DESC
Hi :
The database i am using is SQL Express.
I am using .cmd files to execute .sql files.
sqlcmd is used in .cmd files to execute the .sql stmts.
In .cmd file the sqlcmd line of code is as follows:
sqlcmd -i .....sql ablescreate_employee_table.sql
In .sql file the ddl stmt is as follows:
CREATE TABLE [Employee](
[EmployeeID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[NationalIDNumber] [nvarchar](15) COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AI NOT NULL,
[ContactID] [int] NOT NULL,
[LoginID] [nvarchar](256) COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AI NOT NULL,
[ManagerID] [int] NULL,
DF_Employee_rowguid] DEFAULT (newid()),
[ModifiedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT CONSTRAINT [PK_Employee_EmployeeID] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EmployeeID] ASC
)WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
DDL used are create and drop of tables and indexes.
How do i log all the ddl stmts executed into some .log file (xyz.log)?
The log file should read something like,
employee table created sucessfully
employee table dropped sucessfully.
...................
sqlcmd -o c:logxyz.log , gives me only the output for dml stmts (like select * from emp).. anything other than this will be very helpful.
Any solutions will be of great help.
Hi. I'm trying to copy from one table to another across 2 differentservers with the following:select *into #Tmp_Hdrfrom parsaleshdrwhere businessday = '9/20/07'select *into [pdsqla01pdsqla01].impact_exec.dbo.parsaleshdrfrom #Tmp_HdrThis gives me an error:The object name 'pdsqla01pdsqla01.impact_exec.dbo.' contains morethan the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 2.Not really sure how to get around it. I was trying to use OpenQuery,but that's really for selecting from, not into. How can I get aroundthis?Thanks,Jennifer

Hi there friend...I'm in a midle of a program(vb.net). and i've got this problem, I've got do compare two tables from two diferent sql servers. Is this possible??? How can I do this???
Please, this is really urgent.
Thank you for your attention
I've run into the following problem using "select rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[DBName].dbo.MyTable" (as opposed to using "select <rowguid column name>...".
Against a locally-connected database, the following SQL command works as expected:
SELECT rowguidcol from dbo.MyTable
However, If I run the same query against a linked server (using the 4-part notation), it fails with an 'Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'' error:
SELECT rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[MyDB].dbo.MyTable
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'.
I've searched around but can't seem to find any info that tells me definitively that I can't use rowguidcol against linked tables, so I'm wondering if I'm just doing something wrong?
Any ideas on how to get around this issue would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to use actual column names, as this is for generated scripts.
More Info:
> I can select the data just fine from the linked server if I use the column name - so I don't think it's a configuration or permissions issue.
> The row I'm trying to view is, in fact, a rowguidcol. I used the exact same script to create the table on both the local (where select rowguidcol works) and the linked (where it doesn't) servers.
> Both servers are MS SQL 2005 Standard with SP2
I administer several servers. My login is a SysAdmin on all servers with not only the same Name and Password, but also the same SID. In setting up Linked Servers, I can successfully SELECT data from a server other than the host server, but if I try to SELECT * INTO I get the following error:
The object name 'DB1.ogSerial.dbo.' contains more than the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 2.
Here are the queries I've tried (using DB3 as the host, DB1 as the linked server).
SELECT * INTO DB1.MyDB.dbo.TestTableNew FROM DB3.MyDB.dbo.TestTable
SELECT * INTO DB1.MyDB.dbo.TestTableNew FROM DB1.MyDB.dbo.TestTable
SELECT * INTO DB1.MyDB.dbo.TestTableNew FROM MyDB.dbo.TestTable
I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!
can anyone tell me if they know of a way to automate the update process from development servers to live server, with little interference from an administrator
I have a development team that are constantly updating their databases along with their ASP code, and want to publish changes an a weekly basis. They have asked me for a way to take their new structures, tables, procedures etc, and copy them to the live servers, but NOT to interfere with existing customer data.
Funny I know – and I hate the idea btw :(
Any references, contacts, 3rd party tool recommendations welcome,
Thanx,

I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server.
2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers.
3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are:
------------------------------
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054)
------------------------------
And
------------------------------
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB".
OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

What I have now will find the values that need to be inserted for a particular project but I don't know how to go through each project and perform the insert:
Select * from PR_template Where Not Exists
(Select Wbs1, Wbs2, Wbs3 from PR where PR.WBS2 = PR_Template.WBS2
And PR.WBS3 = PR_Template.Wbs3 and pr.wbs1 = '123-456')
Order by wbs2, wbs3 asc

Hi. I'm trying to find out which "cases" have a new items added to our database. I have provided a sample layout.
ID ParentID Name CreateDate
358 2 SMITH, JOHN 3/3/2008 11:15:23 am
359 358 Invoice 3/5/2008 4:13:52 pm
360 358 Shipping 3/5/2008 5:11:09 pm
361 358 Receiving 3/6/2008 4:22:01 am
The main ID for this is 358. The invoice, shipping, and receiving items are child items. I would like to run a query that can report which cases have newly added items. This is hierarchical I guess and I'm quite lost. I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help!

Hello,
I want to write a query that joins data in a different table based on a column value. The table is for a "Playlist" and holds play list items. The items can be video, audio, images, etc. The playlist table looks like this:
Table_Playlist
-----------------
ID (int)
MediaType (char)
MediaId (int)
Table_Audio
-----------------
MediaId (int)
Table_Video
--------------
MediaId (int)
If the Table_Playlist.[MediaType] column value = "Audio" then I want to join to the Table_Audio table. If the value = "Video" then I need the video table.
Hope that makes sense. Thanks
Hi,
I have got a column with the string "I too Love Sql Server". I am trying an output as shown below:
I want to divide this into 4 columns :
Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4
I too Love Sql Server I.t.L.S.S

Hello All,
I am tackling with unique request. I have to download the ".zip" files from the https and uncompress them. Now, the fetch process works fine when I am downloading the files. Using .net and .IO namespaces from system library.
Similarly after downloading I have to uncompress the files as these files are treated by compressed file folders by windows xp. I know it can be achieved by using the IO.compression class form system namespace.
But the only trouble here is IO.compression supports ".gz" and "Gzipstream.Uncompress" and I wonder how I would be able to get the ".zip" and "Zipstream.uncompress" done.
Thanks a million in all your help and advice. Also I appreciate for your time.

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows of any way, including third party tools, to replicate a design change on a table across many different databases. I have written an ASP script that allows me to copy multiple tables to multiple databases in one go but I need something that will allow me to replicate the design of a table by comparing source and destination tables. So far I have scripted most of it but I have no idea on which system table to get the identity information and it seems there must be an easier way!
Any help would be appreciated,

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,I am trying to concoct a query that will join rows on the basis of awhitespace insensitive comparison. For instance if one row has the value'a<space>b' and another has the value 'a<space><space>b' I want them to beconsidered equal (but not the same as 'ab')I am happy to do some T-SQL if that helps. Also I have a full-text index onthe column in question, but note that I am comparing rows against eachother, not to a fixed string.This is for a one-off job, so if there is no obvious way to do it on thedatabase, I will just bcp out the data and knock up some perl or somethingto do it. All other things being equal I would rather do it on the databasethough.Many thanksAndy

Hi,
I am having an issue when performing an FTP atsk to a remote site ( as opposed to internaly on a LAN )
I get the error "[Connection manager "FTP Connection Manager"] Error: An error occurred in the requested FTP operation. Detailed error description: 200 Type set to IMAGE. 200 command successful 550 permission denied . "
I can manually FTP to this site from my machine, using either a CMD window or Windows explorer. I can create folders, deposit files, delete files etc so I seem to have full control. This task works when testing on our local FTP server on the LAN. The "Test" connection works when configuring the connection to the remote site. It is just at runtime that the task fails.
Can anybody come up with any ideas why this may be ?
Thanks.
Hello.
I have a car table, whose rows contain cars and their respective weight:
Ex: (1, 1000), (2,1100), (3, 900) etx.
I also have a car class table with the classes cars can fall into, based on a lower bound and an upper bound in which the car's weight must fit.
Ex: (Class1, 0, 999), (Class2, 1000, 1499), (Class3, 1500, 1999), etc.
I need to match each car to it's respective class. I've already search the database for post on this subject, but unfortunatelly my goal is yet to be reached. Can someone help?
