Hey,
I want to do a 'select db_size from sp_helpdb where name = @DB;'
The problem is that SQL doesn't interpret sp_helpdb as a table :-(
How can I query the result of this stored procedure?
Thx
Hi friends,
I want to select only filename column of sp_helpdb's output.But I don't know how should I do this? Other way is doing a direct select from sysfiles or sysdatabases but as you know microsoft doesn't recommand this way. Also I can select that filed in my application level but it is strange for me: Of course sql server should has a proper way to do a select from output curosr of this procedure,Doesn't it?
-Thanks in advance
Has anyone every seen this error message? If so, what caused it?
Server: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_helpdb, Line 53
Cannot insert the value NULL into column '', table ''; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

Thanks

Well i have been using sp_helpdb 'mydatabasename' to get the info for 3 consecutive days now and it returns the same result every day in KB for data files and in MB overall database size. Wich is kinda impossible since this is a warehouse and there are about 30000 records insert every night what is going on. plz help

I have MOM 2005 installed to monitor all our sql servers. In one of the sql server on a specific db, I get error alerts when running the sp_helpdb error.
The error output is
"Server: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_helpdb, Line 53
Cannot insert the value NULL into column '', table ''; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated."
I checked the sp_helpdb stored procedure and here is where it fails:
insert into #spdbdesc (dbname, owner, created, dbid, cmptlevel)
select name, suser_sname(sid), convert(nvarchar(11), crdate), dbid, cmptlevel from master.dbo.sysdatabases
where (@dbname is null or name = @dbname)
I understand this is a temporary table created by the stored procedure to insert all the db info.
I ran a query as follows:
select name, suser_sname(sid), crdate, dbid, cmptlevel
from master.dbo.sysdatabases
The output is
DB Name User Name Cr date db id cmpt
master sa2000-08-06 01:29:12.250180

tempdb sa2005-11-29 19:10:48.450280
The problem is in RMSummary database and the "dbo" login does not
have a username.
How do I add a User Name "sa" to the DB Owner "dbo" for the RMSummary database?
I did try the following things with no success:
1. Try to delete the 'dbo' user in 'RMSummary' database so that
I can add a new login name as 'dbo' and username is 'sa'.
Error message is 'dbo' owns some objects and does not get deleted.
2. I tried sp_changedbowner but it does not work either.
Any help on this quickly is much appreciated.
Thanks

I have a strange question and hope someone can shed some light on theproblem.First let me give you my scenario. We are using doubletake to replicate ourdatabase server files between the local site and off site. I will namethese servers srv1a (local) and srv1b (remote). It now time to move to newservers. These servers will be srv2a (local) and 2b (remote).Currently srv1a replicates to srv1b. The sqlserver service is off on srv1b.It is only replicating the database files. Works great.Now the problem. srv1a and srv1b have all the logs and data files on thed: drive. On the new servers (2a and 2b) we will place the log files one: and the data files on f:. This is the case for all databases exceptthe system databases, which will reside all ldf and mdf on f:.In order to move to the new servers, as a test we began replicating to srv1ato svr2a. It placed all the system dbs on srv2a d: drive and all otherfiles in the new structure (e: and f:). There is some work that you mustdo to move the master, msdb, model, and temp to the new location (change thestartup parameters and detaching and reattaching some other databases). Allthis works great and we have everything up and running.As part of a sanity check, I ran the following statementsselect name, filename from master..sysdatabases where name = 'master'GOexec sp_helpdb master.GOresults arename filenamemaster d:Microsoft SQLServerMSSQLdatamaster.mdf(1 row(s) affected)name db_size owner dbid createdmaster 22.00 MB sa 1 Aug 6 2000 Status=ONLINE,name fileid filenamefilegroup size maxsize growth usagemaster 1 F:Microsoft SQL Server DataMSSQLDatamaster.mdfPrimary 19072 KB Unlimited 10% data onlymastlog 2 F:Microsoft SQL Server DataMSSQLDatamastlog.ldfNULL 3456 KB Unlimited 10% log onlyIf you notice that sysdatabases table is showing the master files on D: butsp_help is showing on F: F: is the correct location. Also my startparameters is-dF:Microsoft SQL Server DataMSSQLDatamaster.mdf-lF:Microsoft SQL Server DataMSSQLDatamastlog.ldf-eF:Microsoft SQL Server DataMSSQLDataERRORLOGAny ideas why the two are not showing the same thing? Everything is workingfine and all other databases (sp_helpdb) is correct and sp_helpfile masteris showing the same thing as sp_helpdb master. Since I though sp_helpdb wasquerying sysdatabases, I am confused as to why this is happening.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long post.

used query : GRANT SELECT ON SCHEMA::TEST TO Satish.
Hi all,
I copied and executed the following sql code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE):
--SELECTeg8.sql from SELECT-Using correlated subqueries of MSDN2 SELECT Examples--
USE AdventureWorks ;
GO
SELECT DISTINCT Name
FROM Production.Product p
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT *

WHERE Name = 'Long-sleeve logo jersey') ;
GO
=========================================
I got:

I think I did not get a complete output from this job. Please help and advise whether I should search somewhere in the SSMSE for the complete results or I should correct some code statements in my SELECTeg8.sql for obtaining the complete results.
Thanks in advance,

I have a report that uses different datasets based on the year selected by a user.
I have a year_id parameter that sets a report variable named dataset_chosen. I have varified that these are working correctly together.
I have attempted populating table cell data to display from the chosen dataset. As yet to no avail.
How could I display data from the dataset a user selects via the year_id options?
Dear All
I need to cerate a SP that SELECTS all the records from a table WHERE the first letter of each records starts with 'A' or 'B' or 'C' and so on. The letter is passed via a parameter from a aspx web page, I was wondering that someone can help me in the what TSQL to use I am not looking for a solution just a poin in the right direction. Can you help.

I have a problem where my users complain that a select statement takes too long, at 90 seconds, to read 120 records out of a database.
The select statement reads from 9 tables three of which contain 1000000 records, the others contain between 100 and 250000 records.
I have checked that each column in the joins are indexed - they are (but some of them are clustered indexes, not unclustered).
I have run the SQL Profiler trace from the run of the query through the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor". That just suggested two statistics items which I added (no benefit) and two indexes for tables that are not involved at all in the query (I didn't add these).
I also ran the query through the Query window in SSMS with "Include Actual Execution Plan" enabled. This showed that all the execution time was being taken up by searches of the clustered indexes.
I have tried running the select with just three tables involved, and it completes fast. I added a fourth and it took 7 seconds. However there was no WHERE clause for the fourth table, so I got a cartesian product which might have explained the problem.
So my question is: Is it normal for such a type of read query to take 90 seconds to complete?
Is there anything I could do to speed it up.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

Far below (in section "original 3 steps"), you see the following:1. a temp table is created2. some data is inserted into this table3. some of the inserted data is removed based on a join with the sametable that the original select was made fromIn my opinion, there is no way that the join could produce more rowsthan were originally retrieved from viewD. Hence, we could get rid ofthe DELETE step by simply changing the query to be:INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )AND INMESS NOT LIKE '2__' ---- the added line===== original 3 steps (mentioned above) =====CREATE TABLE #details (rec_id UNIQUEIDENTIFIER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,orig VARCHAR(35) NULL,bene VARCHAR(35) NULL,orig_corr TINYINT NULL,bene_corr TINYINT NULL)INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )DELETE dFROM #details dJOIN viewD v ON ( d.rec_id = v.rec_id )WHERE INMESS LIKE '2__'

This works great if there is at least one OP coverage. There are 3 tables in which to get information which are the patient table, the coverage table, and the coverage history table. The coverage table links to the patient table via pat_id and it tells me the patient's coverage plan and in which priority to bill.

There are several parameters on a report. One of the parameter is a multi-select enabled parameter and I suppressed the value "All" showing as one of the item in the drop down list, simply by filter out the [bha].[bha].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL to 1, as "(Select All)" is pre-assigned to the drop list when multi-select is enabled and it is confusing to show "(Select All)" and "All" in the drop list. However I have another report which is linked to this report and the value which is required to pass to this report for this parameter is "All". Can I pass the "Select All" as a parameter from the other report? If so, how? Thanks.

I'm trying to right a sql statement for a gridview, I want to see the last ten records added to the to the database. As you know each day someone could add one or two records, how can I write it show the last 10 records entered.
I'm doing a INSERT...SELECT where I'm dependent on the records SELECT:ed to be in a certain order. This order is enforced through a clustered index on that table - I can see that they are in the proper order by doing just the SELECT part.
However, when I do the INSERT, it doesn't work (nothing is inserted) - can the order of the records from the SELECT part be changed internally on their way to the INSERT part, so to speak?
Actually - it is a view that I'm inserting into, and there's an instead-of-insert trigger on it that does the actual insertions into the base table. I've added a "PRINT" statement to the trigger code and there's just ONE record printed (there should be millions).
I have a table which is returning inconsistent results when I queryit!In query analyzer:If I do "SELECT * FROM TABLE_NAME" I get no rows returned.If I do "SELECT COL1, COL2 FROM TABLE_NAME" I get 4 rows returned.In Enterprise manager:If I do "return all rows" I get 4 rows returned, and the SQL is listedas being "SELECT * FROM dbo.TABLE_NAME".I've tried adding the "dbo." before my table name in QA, but it seemsto make no difference.I'm using SQL Server 2000, which is apparently 8.00534.Can anyone help me, or give me ideas about what to check?Thanks,Rowland.

how can I do that?
thank you
I understand that I can do this is SQL Server:
CREATE TABLE dbo.test1 (
Col1 int IDENTITY,
ColGUID uniqueidentifier rowguidcol NOT NULL CONSTRAINT DF_test1_ColGUID DEFAULT NEWSEQUENTIALID()
)
INSERT INTO dbo.test1 DEFAULT VALUES
SELECT rowguidcol FROM dbo.test1
SELECT ColGUID FROM dbo.test1
I get this result:
ColGUID

ED2D1EF0-0408-DD11-A8EB-001AA0D389DB
ColGUID
------------------------------------
ED2D1EF0-0408-DD11-A8EB-001AA0D389DB
Here's the question: Is there any performance difference between using the actual column name and "rowguidcol"?
I would like to be able to script a trigger that uses the rowguidcol column. If I could use rowguidcol instead of the actual column name, I would not have to hard-code the column name in the trigger.
Thanks,
Rob
