I am creating a program that will take a master database and create separate databases for class room training.creating my own app to do this since it will have other stuff to do.i will have a master database that i will need to create multiple copies of. 2-20 copies, it is about 7GB large. it is used in a classroom training course for our company software. it will also copy a folder on the server onto multiple subfolders.each computer in the classroom will access its own copy of the database/windows folders.
What i am looking for is a fast/reliable way to create the multiple database copies. then when the training class is over and a new one is getting started, we will run my program to reset everything back to start.Should i detach/copy/attach or create a master backup and restore it 20 times. What kind of user access pitfalls will i need to look out for.
Wondering how this is handled by Multicast component. If multiple copies are created in the memory and the size of the dataset is large, this could cause some performance problems. Any thoughts? TIA

I am new to reporting services and I'm really stuck on a design problem. Can someone please help me?
I would like to design my own print function. When a user clicks on the print icon (preferably the one that came with reporting services), the report is automatically printed twice, once with "For Person A" and the second time with "For Person B" on it. It doesn't matter where these two labels are placed on the page. These two reports need to be printed on letter-size paper regardless of user's selection. How do I do this with minimum amount of code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I have an SQL statement to find attractions between certain longitude and latitude values. The attraction i have already added to the database to test has values 51.502899 and 0.003552 for latitude and longitude. As you can see these values fall within the limits of the statement below but nothing is returned.
SELECT * FROM Attractions WHERE (Lat BETWEEN 51.51998 AND 51.49999) AND (Long BETWEEN 0.014 AND -0.006);
I have two tables and I want to return data from both. Currently my select statement is returning just 1 child record for each parent record and I want to return all child records that match the parent record.
Here's a sample of my tables/data/etc.
t1
------------
speciesid | species
1 | Mammals
2 | Rodents
3 | Reptiles
t2
---------
animalid | animal
3 | Skink
3 | Iguana
3 | Rattlesnake
2 | Meerkat
1 | Hippo
1 | Elk
What I want to do is pull up a list of all the species and under each list all the animals currently listed under that species.
So the result I want should look like:
Mammals (Hippo, Elk)
Reptiles (Skink, Iguana, Rattlesnake)
Rodents (Meerkat)
so currently I have:
SELECT A.animalid, S.speciesid, A.animal, S.species from t2 as A, t1 as S where S.speciesid=A.animalid order by species
this works great, it's just that it only returns one animal instead of all of the animals. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a table called tableA and i am fetching 10 rows from table.
select dept_id from tableA where branch = 'Chennai';
I got 10 records.
dept_id
-------
001
002
003
004
005
so n.....
Now i want to pass these dept_ids dynamically to a function parameter.
ie. exec function_name (@dept_id).
How do i write a function?
Here is my setup: I have the following tables -
tblPerson - holds basic person data.
tblPersonHistorical - holds a dated snapshot of the fkPersonId, fkInstitutionId, and fkDepartmentId
tblWebUsers - holds login data specific to a web account, but not every person will have a web account
I want to allow my admins to search for users (persons) with web accounts. They need to be able to search by tblPerson.FirstName, tblPerson.LastName, tblInstitutions.Institution, and tblDepartments.Department. The only way a Person record is joined an Institution or Department record is through many -> many junction table tblPersonHistorical.
People place orders and make decisions in our system. Because people can change institutions and departments, we need an historical snapshot of where they worked at the time they placed an order or made a decision. Of course that means some folks will have multiple historical records. That all works fine.
So when an admin user wants to search for webusers, I only want to return data, if possible, from he most recent/current historical records. This is where I am getting bogged down. When I search for a specific webuser I simply do a TOP 1 and ORDER BY DateCreated DESC. That returns only the current historical record for that person/webuser.
But what if I want to return many different webusers, and only want the TOP 1 historical for each returned?
Straight TOP by itself won't do it.
GROUP BY by itself won't do it.
I have a query running without issue on around 100,000 results however i have a couple where my MAX aggregate is returning two results for a MAX(date time) and i cannot figure out why. I have paired down the query to try and work it out but still don't know.
My query now looks like this (i have remove most columns)
SELECT STATUS, RunOn, sort, T_ID
FROM dbo.Results
WHERE (RunOn IN
(SELECT MAX(RunOn)
FROM dbo.Results
group BY T_ID) AND T_ID = 21405)
ORDER BY sort
I added the T_ID = 21405 to restrict the results to the problematic results, if i set T_ID to any other test result i get one value based on the latest RunOn, but for some reason with this T_ID i get two values, the latest one and one slightly older... The date time looks ok, i just can't work out why the latest and one older result are returned !
The original query was grouping by more items but i removed those to try and work out what is going one, as mentioned for 99.9% of results it works perfectly, but for this one i don't know.
How do I create a select query which returns multiple columns from one actual DB column?
DB structure
ID (int), photo (nvarchar(50)), name (nvarchar(50))
Sample data
1, 'photo1.jpg', 'john smith'
2, 'photo2.jpg', 'jane doe'
3, 'photo3.jpg', 'bob brown'
4, 'photo4.jpg', 'mary brown'
5, 'photo5.jpg', 'sue smith'
6, 'photo6.jpg', 'bob rogers'
...
Required output
pic_col_1, name_col_1, pic_col_2, name_col_2, pic_col_3, name_col_3
photo1.jpg, john smith, photo2.jpg, jane doe, photo3.jpg, bob brown
photo4.jpg, mary brown, photo5.jpg, sue smith, photo6.jpg, bob rogers
Normally, I would just query the data and have the client data loop over the dataset to create the required output, however in this application it is not an option...
Thanks,
Steve
This is probably very elementary to someone more experienced, but I'm having a hard time coming up with a way to do the following:
SELECT * FROM Transactions
WHERE MyField LIKE (SELECT MyValues FROM SearchValues)
But I can't because the subquery will return multiple rows. That's all I'm really trying to do - search all the rows in Transactions.MyField for any of the search values returned from the subquery.
And I can't restructure the SearchValues table to combine them into a single-row comma-delimited field or anything like that.
Any help would be appreciated-

I've got this sql statement that keeps returning the wrong data. (it's related to a previous post, but is different)
Code:

INNER JOIN USERS U ON C.ID = U.ID
INNER JOIN ORDERS O ON C.ID = O.ID
INNER JOIN ORDER_LINE OL ON O.ID = OL.ORDER_ID

Acme Inc KLM444 4
Acme Inc KLM444 100
Acme Inc QRP456 3
Acme Inc QRP456 4
Acme Inc QRP456 100
It should be:
HTML Code:
Co. part Qty
Acme Inc ABC123 3
Acme Inc KLM444 4
Acme Inc QRP456 100
The Qty field has duplicates. I've tried various ways, but I cannot make this work.
my stored procedure performs actions of deletion and insertion. Both the inserted and deleted items are output in temp tables with single column.
Is there a way to return the content of these two tables?
Is there a way to return a table from the stored procedure?
Thanks in advance

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,In the process of localizing the 'regions' table, we added three newtables. The localized data will be stored in the TokenKeys andTokenValues tables. It would be easier if we did away with theTokeyKeys/TokenValues tables and just added a localeid in the regionstable, but this is the desired schema by the client. Here's theschema:Table: regionsid nameabbreviation1 United StatesUSTable: localesid locale1 en_US2 fr_CATable: TokenKeysid key1 db.regions.name2 db.regions.abbreviationTable: TokenValuesid keyid valuelocaleid1 1 Etas Unis22 2 EU2The old sql was simply this:select name, abbreviation from regionswhich returns:United States, USBut the new sql needs to link in the localized data from the tokeykeysand tokenvalues tables using the localeid... I’m trying to figure outwhat the sql statement would look like to return this:Etats Unis, EU (This is supposed to be the French version)My confusion is we are trying to return multiple column values fromthe same column (TokenValues.value) and make them act as separatecolumns in the same record, like it was with the original.Thanks

The problem I'm having is that I need a cursor to return multiple results into 1 .NET System.Data.DataTable, and I don't know if it's possible. Actually, the real problem I'm having is that whoever designed this database did a poor job and if it weren't for one small thing I could do this all with aggregates...
But more specifically, this is what I need to accomplish. I have written a cursor that I know works - when I run it in MS SQL Query Analyzer, I get the results I want, but it's returned in multiple tables. I am maintaining a .NET application with some pretty lousy performance and I'm trying to boost it up. I need to take the cursor's results, stuff them into a DataTable, and then return that table to my web application to render.
In my C# code, I am using a SqlDataAdapter to execute my query. This is what I'd like to do...
/*assume query is my working cursor, InvoiceDBConnection is not null, and dt is an empty, non-null DataTable*/
SqlDataAdapter sda = new SqlDataAdapter(query, InvoiceDBConnection);
sda.Fill(dt);
... but this doesn't work, and it makes sense, I guess...since the cursor returns multiple "tables" (not sure if that's actually how the data is returned).
So is there any way to accomplish what I want to do? Or do I have to do it the crappy way it's done now by running my aggregate query and then using a really time-consuming for loop on my results to make the necessary adjustment?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Hi,I'm am looking for a little help.

This iswhere I get totally lost as I am pretty new to SQL. Can anyone provideany help on how I would go about limiting this query to the uniqueorder no's and returning the average of the value field, and I can takeit from there with my own tables.Thanks for your helpstr8

I’m trying to create a custom paging control, so I create a stored procedure that returns the appropriate records as well as the total amount of records. And that works fine. What I’m having problems with is reading the data from the second select statement within the code. Anyone have any idea on how to do this? Also.. how can I check how many tables were returned?
Here's my code. I'm trying to keep it very generic so I can send it any sql statement:public DataTable connect(string sql)

SqlDataAdapter SqlCmd = new SqlDataAdapter(sql, SqlCon);
System.Data.DataSet ds = new System.Data.DataSet();
SqlCmd.Fill(ds);
dt = ds.Tables[0];
//Here's where I don't know how to access the second select statement
return dt;
} Here's my stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.MyStoredProcedure
(
@Page int,
@AmountPerPage int,
@TotalRecords int output

AS
WITH MyTable AS

Select *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ID Desc) as RowNum

We have an archive table which keeps each instance of a sales order that was archived under a "Verion No" field. Each time the sales order is archived it is entered into the archive tables (Sales Header Archive, Sales Line Archive). What I am trying to do is write a query to return all sales orders but only the most recent archived version.
For example this table layout is similar to what I am working with. Version No, Order No and Customer No. are the keys between the Header and Line tables, Customer Name column in the output is from only the Sales Header Archive table
SALES LINE ARCHIVE TABLE
Version No - Order No. - Customer No -----> (other columns)
1 s-5 1000
2 s-5 1000
1 s-6 2000
1 s-7 3000
2 s-7 3000
3 s-7 3000
1 s-8 4000
1 s-9 2000
2 s-9 2000
Here is what I need to output to show:
RESULTS OF JOINED TABLES
Version No - Order No - Customer No - Customer Name ---> (other columns)
2 s-5 1000 Something, Inc.
1 s-6 2000 Acme
3 s-7 3000 Company, LLC
1 s-8 4000 Blah & Associates
2 s-9 2000 Acme
It should return the last Version No of each Sales order.
Does that make sense? It is something probably easy... But, I've spent two days using multiples and multiples of different ways, that just aren't working: I'm about to dropkick my server cabinet...
I am writing a query and have the bulk of it already written.Â
I am looking at a table that contains customer orders. There is a column named Customer_Order.Status Available values for this column is R, F, H, and C.
I'd like for my query to return all lines that have the value R, F, H.
My where clause is written like thisÂ
WHERE CUSTOMER_ORDER.SITE_ID = 'XXX' AND CUSTOMER_ORDER.STATUS = ('R','H','F')
I know I'm missing something....

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm trying to copy results from a view on one table to another table in a different db using DTS in SQL Server Management Studio
Both source and destination db's are version 8.0.194
Everything reports as working, but when I check the results, only one row has copied - DTS reports that 1167 rows were copied.
This happens to different sources and destinations so I doubt it's my query.
When I perfrom the same DTS task using the old enterprise manager DTS in SQL Server 2000, everything copies fine.
Obviously one answer is "Use SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager then. " but I'd rather upgrade to 2005 and Management Studio permanently.
Any ideas?

Hi,
at work all the databases i use are only accessible via the local network, i am wanting to take a copy of the databases and save them as a database file so i can burn them onto cd and take home with me so i can get some extra work done on the weekend (i'd also like to start doing this so i have backed up copies of the database incase anything happens to it)
i was wondering how i can do this? are there any tutorials on the web that someone can point me to? i have SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express.
TIA

Most of our clients are novices with SQL 2005 also.

In previous threads I saw that in a scenario where Log Shipping is active any other Log Backup activities should be avoided in order to let the Log Chain stay intanct.
Until now we just used Mirroring and Full Backup and Log Backup. Introducing Log Shipping to a third Server in a separate location would mean that the existing Log Backup Jobs must be removed or Log Shipping will not work.
I am glad to have read these threads before falling into that trap myself.
A question was raised by my colleague who is responsible for the System and Network Administration. Are these Log Backups that will be performed by Log Shipping just differential? He would not like to see that Log Shipping is pushing or pulling Log's that grow during time.
I named to him two reasons that it must be differential. A Log Backup truncates the existing Log which implies that the next Log is just the difference since the last Backup. Also, it must be differential because the Transations can only be committed once anyway, so Log Shipping implies that those Log Backups are just as big as the incoming Transactions since the last Log Backup.
Did I get this right?
Hey guys,
I'm using CLR integration on SQL Server 2005 to call functions from a COM dll made with VB6. I do this to keep some important parts in packed unmanaged code, to make reverse engineering harder.
I keep the COM dll in the system directory. When it's referenced from a .net project, VS copies and uses it as 'interop.myCOM.dll'. When I add the assembly to SQL Server, it needs the referenced 'interop.myCOM.dll' file added. When a class from the COM dll is called by a CLR stored procedure, it needs to locate the real COM dll.
So, the same dll has to be in two different places in two different forms, one as an assembly (interop), and one in its own place. I guess the 'interop' one is not really used, but it just helps to retrieve class information during design time and initialization or something. Everything works ok, but thinking about the packing step and others, this makes things messy. How can I prevent using two copies of my COM dll?
I load the COM class as follows:
Code Snippet
Private Shared ReadOnly m_myClass As myCOM.clsGeneric = New myCOM.clsGeneric
then map stored procedures (shared functions) to related functions of the m_myClass object.
is it ok to run VSS (shadow copies) on an SQL server?
I have IIS and SQL on the same server. I would like to make shadow copies of my IIS files, but don't want to do anything that could corrupt my SQL databases.
Thanks,
-Bob
