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.
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 am wondering if it is possible to retreive this information without using row count transform. Can I get the # of rows inserted/updated or deleted by destination from the log?
Hi All In My application when i want to work with sqldatasource for updation and delteion tasks it is working properly when all the columns consists the data. If any of the column consists the null values its not updating and deleting. Advices are needed.Thank uBaba
i am getting the above error on my database i have 2 rows with the same info on and another 2 with the same info on. example:
ID username password
1 bob bob
1 bob bob
1 john john
1 john john
I know this is a fault with ms sql 2005 however how do i fix it?
Ive found this link which explains everything but how do i start a query. I tried clicking on new query and copying the code. What is table1 meant to be? the database is dbl.tbl_admin. It wont find my database.
Im not sure how to do it anyway.
I need to change it though as its my admin password and Ive given it out to web design companys
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).
Hi SQL fans,I realized that I often encounter the same situation in a relationdatabase context, where I really don't know what to do. Here is anexample, where I have 2 tables as follow:__________________________________________ | PortfolioTitle|| Portfolio |+----------------------------------------++-----------------------------+ | tfolio_id (int)|| folio_id (int) |<<-PK----FK--| tfolio_idfolio (int)|| folio_name (varchar) | | tfolio_idtitle (int)|--FK----PK->>[ Titles]+-----------------------------+ | tfolio_weight(decimal(6,5)) |+-----------------------------------------+Note that I also have a "Titles" tables (hence the tfolio_idtitlelink).My problem is : When I update a portfolio, I must update all theassociated titles in it. That means that titles can be either removedfrom the portfolio (a folio does not support the title anymore), addedto it (a new title is supported by the folio) or simply updated (atitle stays in the portfolio, but has its weight changed)For example, if the portfolio #2 would contain :[ PortfolioTitle ]id | idFolio | idTitre | poids1 2 1 102 2 2 203 2 3 30and I must update the PortfolioTitle based on these values :idFolio | idTitre | poids2 2 202 3 352 4 40then I should1 ) remove the title #1 from the folio by deleting its entry in thePortfolioTitle table2 ) update the title #2 (weight from 30 to 35)3 ) add the title #4 to the folioFor now, the only way I've found to do this is delete all the entriesof the related folio (e.g.: DELETE TitrePortefeuille WHERE idFolio =2), and then insert new values for each entry based on the new givenvalues.Is there a way to better manage this by detecting which value has to beinserted/updated/deleted?And this applies to many situation :(If you need other examples, I can give you.thanks a lot!ibiza
If I update a recordset a group of records using dynamic SQL where I update the TOP n records, is it possible to get the set of records that was updated?
CREATE PROCEDURE usp_Structural_ScheduleComponent @cProject char(7), @cComponentID char(10), @iPour int, @iQuantity int, @iAvailable int OUTPUT, @dtCast datetime OUTPUT AS
SET @dtCast = convert(char(10), getdate(), 120)
DECLARE @cSql varchar(500) SET @cSql = 'UPDATE tbStructuralComponentSchedule SET PourNumber = ' + CAST (@iPour AS VARCHAR) + ', ScheduledDate = ' + '''' + CAST(@dtCast AS VARCHAR) + '''' + ' WHERE EntryID IN ( SELECT TOP ' + CAST(@iQuantity AS VARCHAR) + ' FROM tbStructuralComponentSchedule ' + ' WHERE fkProjectNumber = ' + '''' + @cProject + '''' + ' AND fkComponentID = ' + '''' + @cComponentID + '''' + ' AND IssueDate IS NOT NULL' + ' AND ScheduledDate IS NULL' + ' ORDER BY EntryID DESC)'
EXEC(@cSql) IF(@@ERROR <> 0 OR @@ROWCOUNT < = 0) RAISERROR('Failed to add components to pour!',16,1)
SELECT @iAvailable = SUM(CASE WHEN IssueDate IS NOT NULL AND ScheduledDate IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) FROM tbStructuralComponentSchedule WHERE fkProjectNumber = @cProject AND fkComponentID = @cComponentID
GO

Hi all, I have a data of applicants. Everyday we dump this data into SQL server. Now I need to generate reports everyday so that we can track how many records get updated everyday. Now the thing is that the applicants are in various stages. So my reports need to track the how many applicants changed from stage "abc" to "pqr" and how many changed from "pqr" to "xyz". Now it is not necessary that all the records change stages everyday.
I am using this code to delete records from a table in the database that has two fields (both are primary keys) I am not getting any error, but nothing gets deleted. Thanks for the help. Code:protected void btnRemove_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
I want to know what to do to recover the deleted records on a specific table. Unfortunately, the dba was unable to activate Trace feature and I am not familiar in using the transaction logs to retrieve data.
Does anybody know if SQL 2000 has a tool to roll back (udelete) records? Let's say Payroll dept deletes 500 records by mistake... I know of 2 products that do that (Computer Assoc. - Unicenter Log Analyzer and Red Matrix Techmologies' SQL Audit 1.7 - but I have never used them. Any comments? Thanks for your help.
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.
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?
I 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.
My database has many table, each table has a DateEntered (datetime), EnteredBy (nvarchar(50), LastUpdate (datetime), and LastUpdateBy (nvarachar(50). Is there an easy (ha) way to pull a list of the records that were entered and/or updated for a date range. Hopefully without a select for each table. Maybe a tool someone knows of?
I need to create a trigger to save every record which has been updated in a table (e.g. "Contacts") into another (e.g. "Shadow_contacts). So basically something like a versioning on database level. I have no experience with it and any precise hints/solutions would be very appreciated
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. Mike Rosen - Amalgamated Bank
It happened accidently that we deleted records from a table in SQL server 2005 DB. We never took a full backup of the DB till then. Is there any way that we can recover the deleted records. Logs files are still present. ( *mdf and *ldf ).
installation of their softwares? If there has NEVER been a backup ofthe Database (.mdf), Recovery Model Set to Full, and there has neverbeen a backup of the Log (.ldf) files?Using the trial software for both, this was unclear.Thank you for your time,bd
I have 2 tables say table1 and table2 with the same structure. Each recordis identified by a field 'SerialNo'. Now there should be a total of 500000records in both tables with serialno from 1 to 500000. Either a record is intable1 or table2. I want to find records (or SerialNo's) that are inneither table (if deleted by accident etc). What would be the sql query?I'm using SQL 6.5thx
Can any one tell me ..is there any restriction on the total number of records that can be added to a table ( SQL Server 2005) .Because .. i added 100 records to a table through my program..but i was able to c ..only the last 20 records which is being inserted..can any one tellme any way to increase the total number of records..
pls..help me..solution is required immediately.........
I wrote a stored proc to be implemented in a datagrid. I went and used it on a record to update some information and it updated THE WHOLE DATABASE WITH THAT ONE RECORD..
IF anyone could shead some light on what I'm doing wrong that would be great.
I have a requirement like, i need to save all the records from my Flat File on Monthly basis to my database table. In the next month, the flat file may be added with 10-20 records and also some updates happened to my old records. Though the faltfile is same for each month, the changes are occured in some records and also added with few records.
So when i am loading this data in to Database table, i need to just update the changed records and also needs to add the new records. I don't need to touch the remaining records.
How can i do that in SSIS 2005 using different data flow tasks ?
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*).
i have Two tables... with both the table having LastUpdated Column. And, in my Select Query i m using both the table with inner join.And i want to show the LastUpdated column which has the maxiumum date value. i.e. ( latest Updated Column value).
