Linking Tables From Different Databases Or Querying From Multiple Databases
Dec 10, 2007Dear Readers,Is it possible, like in Access, to link to tables in other SQL databases that are on the same server? I have a query that I originally had in Access that queered from multiply databases. It did this by having those other tables in the other databases linked to the database that had the query.
Querying Other Databases
Apr 21, 2007Hi All,
I am very new to sql and I am not really sure of what I am doing.
I have a bit of a complicated stored procedure that I am trying out. There is 3 parts to it to search for new articles,updates and discontinued articles for a particular Supplier. Right now I am just trying to get the first part working - I am trying to query another database that has 4 tables, 2 are joined ActiveArticle & ActiveArticlePrice and the other 2 are also joined UpdateArticle & UpdateArticlePrice. But all tables also hold data for ALL Suppliers, they are recognised by a GUID - SupplierGuid.
I want to compare them to each other to see if there are any new articles added to the Update tables. This is what I have so far, I was hoping someone could tell me if they see some obvious mistakes(I'm sure theres many!). For the first select, I tried adding a couple of parameters Flag and Text to use so that I can order it all once i have the 3 parts working. But I don't know the syntax is right, because then I also want to select all fields in both tables?.
CREATE PROCEDURE Portal_GetPriceListUpdates
(
@SupplierGUID uniqueidentifier
)
AS
SELECT 'A' AS FLAG, 'New Product' AS TEXT, * FROM SupplierUnits.UpdateArticle UA, SupplierUnits.UpdateArticlePrice UAP WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT * FROM UA, UAP WHERE UA.SupplierGuid=@SupplierGUID AND UA.SupplierArticleNumber NOT IN (SELECT SupplierArticleNumber FROM SupplierUnits.ActiveArticle.SupplierArticleNumber))
GO
I would appreciate any help!
Thanks,

Feb 7, 2007Hey there!
I'm not sure how to explain this but here goes...
I'm a bit stuck, a new project that's come about "requires" me to query multiple databases as if they were tables.
1 Oracle database which stores information on our staff (this database is a part of some MIS software and can't be changed in any way)
1 SQL Server 2005 database which stores information on staff sickness
Basically say theres 1 table in each database
Oracle DB
People
Person_Code
Forename
Surname
SQL DB
Sickness
Person_Code
Daydate
Lets say the query I want to perform is to select all the records from sickness where person code is 22334 and also get their name from the other db, so the output may look like
22334 Dann Rees 01/01/2007
22334 Dann Rees 03/01/2007
22334 Dann Rees 10/02/2007
Now I realise I can write a quick function to pull the information but this is just a basic example. Effectivley what I "need" is to be able to query sickness while sub querying people to get the names, or some kind of pass through query?
Please remember this is just a very simple example and the "actual" queries will be far more complicated, for instance finding all the employees of a certain department who is male and was sick in January. All the data for that example is stored in people (oracle) except for the dates which is stores in sick (SQL 2005). Now these are easy enough if they were tables in 1 database....but their not, their tables in 2 databases, and theres nothing I can do to change that :(
All help appreciated as this is becoming very urgent.
Many thanks
Dann

Jul 23, 2005I know that a heterogeneous query joining tables from two different servershas performance penalties but is the same true when joining tables from twodifferent databases on the same SQL Server 2000 instance?We are looking at setting up a Data Warehouse using DTS on a SQL Server boxand I'm wondering about the best way to logically set it up; i.e. one bighonking db or several dbs determined by some logical organization. With thelatter there will still be some queries that would need data from more thanone db and I'm wondering if that will have worse performance than if theywere all in one db.I thought that was the case in older versions of SS, but I couldn't findanything in 2000's BOL that indicated a problem with that.TIA

Sep 21, 2006Hello,
This is probably a simple solution but I'm a bit confused about which flows to use.
I have two databases on different servers that contain the same information but for the appropriate server. I want to retrieve data from each of the servers using a "select" statement.
Would I use a ForLoop and change the connection in a Script Task and then execute the SQL statement? Or can a ForEach Loop be used, but I'm not sure which type of enumerator.
Thanks for any help you can give.

I'm a newbie to SQL and wanted to see if someone could help me write a query. I store historical options data in a SQL data base and I'm trying to create a query that will retrieve all ATM (at the money options).
For each unique stock symbol (STOCK_SYMBOL) in my database find the strike price (STRIKE) which is closest to the stock price (UND_LAST). This will be refined by the EXPIRATION and OPT_TYPE
The following query returns all options not just ATM options.
SELECT STOCK_SYMBOL, UND_LAST, STRIKE, EXPIRATION FROM DATA
WHERE EXPIRATION > '2007-02-01 00:00:00'
AND EXPIRATION < '2007-02-28 00:00:00'
AND OPT_TYPE = 'CALL'

Querying SAP Through
Nov 8, 2007I am using MS SQL Server 2005 Import and Export Wizard (.net framework Data Provider for mySAP Business Suite. )
as a interface between SAP and MS SQL 2005.
Once the connection is created i can use basic query to fetch the data from SAP tables
ie., SELECT * FROM AFPO
But say I want to EXTRACT data just for month of July from AFPO.
AFPO does not have date field so you have to join AFPO to AUFK and AUFK to COEP to fetch the date as a criteria to restrict data for the month of July .
This can be done in ABAP by view or Interim Table, if you have Developer Key.
Can anyone please tell me if aforesaid is possible with MS SQL Server 2005 Import and Export Wizard query ?
Querying By A Date
Nov 9, 2006Hello,
I want to find all the entries where the date field is a specific date; so I may have 5 entries with the date 1/1/2006, and I want to find all of those. However, datetime fields in SQL Server also have the time, so how do you handle that? Can you just say where requestdate = getdate() to get all of the entries that have records for today?
How does time affect this?

Querying SQL Views
Jan 27, 2008If you create a view such as CREATE VIEW TestView AS Select * FROM customers_table WHERE CustomerID between 213 AND 3443 Each time you want to select from the view - is the View going to perform the WHERE clause on the customers_table, or not? Or does the view already have the virtual rows?, meaning it does not have to perform a where clause (WHERE CustomerID between 213 AND 3443) on the customers_table, and just performs an inner join with the rows it already has?

im struggling to see what im doing wrong with the following SQL, wondering if it has something to do with the subquery being a view...cant think why though
select value from table
where type = 'Extra Mailbox'
and active = 1
and value not in
(select login from view)
order value
The view returns a list of logins and the type field is also a list of logins. I want to filter the list of logins that do not appear in the subquery....
Any ideas?

Querying Two Tables
May 23, 2008This is my problem
Table A Columns:
OriginatingNumber,
TerminatingNumber
Both of these columns contain npanxx numbers which would be the first 6 digits of a phone number, example 217345 which is in illinois.
Table B Columns:
npanxx,
state
table B hold all npanxx numbers in the united states and what state it pertains to.
what i need to do is run a query to check and see what state the OriginatingNumber and the TerminatingNumber are in and decide if both numbers passed are in the same state or not.
so for example in Table A Row 1: OriginatingNumber is 217345 and the TerminatingNumber is 309454. I need to check both of these numbers against table B and it would return that both numbers are in IL. Basically I need to return a result of yes or no. yes they are in the same state or no they are not in the same state.
Any help would be great

Thx in advanced for any help anyone can offer me.

Staff
ID (Primary Key)
FirstName
MiddleName
Surname
Etc. . .
Class
ID (Primary key)
LessonTemplateID
TeacherID
TermID
AssistantID
LessonTemplateID and TermID link to other tables which i don't need right now.
The Class.TeacherID and Class.AssistantID both link to the Staff.ID
I am trying to create a query where i can say i want to select a class.ID of lets say 12 and display both the Teachers name and the Assistants Name.
If i do just one join between Staff.ID and lets say Class.TeacherID all is fine and i can display the teacher.FirstName for a particular class.ID. However my problem is when im trying to display both teacher and assistant. Every time i try to create a query to do this the query comes back blank.
Im really stuck on this and just can't figure it out (is it even possible?).
Thx for any help Scott.

Querying A Linked DB Through ASP.NET
Sep 8, 2007Guys ...
I have a SQL SERVER 2005 running on my local machine. My local machine is also configure for web applications through IIS.
There is a remote oracle db, which is maintained by another department. They gave us read only access but they discourage web access over their oracle database.
Even if you try to access it through web ... they come to know that certain logins are trying to access it through web ... How ... i dont know.
Now what i did is linked that oracle database with my SQL server 2005 and developed an ASP.NET application which is indirectly accessing oracle database though my SQL Server 2005.
Whenever a user visits my web application on the backend the authentication done on my sql server but the query runs on linked oracle server... as I open connection to my sql server 2005
do you guys think that Oracle database administrator can ever know that his oracle db is access through a web application. whereas they allow us to copy required data on our machines through SQL Server 2005?

Jan 31, 2007I realize that this may not be the correct ng for this question, andif so, I'd appreciate a pointer to the correct group.I am not including DDL/DML for this question, because I do not believeit is relevant.What I have is a SQL query, which when executed in Query Analyzertakes about 10-12 seconds. From the time I issue the query, I see aninitial lag of about 1 seconds after which the grid starts gettingpopulated, and then runs its course.The UI responsiveness is impressive. Almost immediately, well, within1 second at most, I see data appear from the server into my queryanalyzer grid.I'd like to get the same responsiveness if possible on my clientapplication written in C# using ADO.NET.I use the SqlDataReader class off the SqlCommand class to make thesame query (identical), and yet it takes close to 9 or 10 secondsbefore even the first row is retrieved by the application. I am notsaying that it takes 9 or 10 second for my DataGrid to start beingpopulated; it is simply that the first Read operation of theSqlDataReader after I connect (which is instantaneous), that takes 9to 10 seconds. Once the data retrieval starts, the grid populates inshort order.Are there any pointer by which I can get just a few rows fast enoughto give the user the impression that the query is executing. In otherwords, what techniques can I use to get the same sort ofresponsiveness as in the SQL query analyzer?In case it is relevant, there are some 250,000 rows returned by thequery.Thanks for all helpful responses in advance.
