Is it possible to generate a identityfield dynamically upon select, like this:
SELECT tempID AS identity(1,1), username FROM table1 ORDER BY username ASC
I want the output to be:
1 - Name1
2 - Name2
3 - Name3
The reason for this, is that i want to change the sort order in many diffrent ways, but i need to get the IDs from 1-?? even when the sort order changes.
Like:
SELECT tempID AS identity(1,1), username FROM table1 ORDER BY username DESC
Code Block SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02' FROM myTables WHERE Conditions are true ORDER BY Field01
The results are just as I need:
Field01 Field02
------------- ----------------------
192473 8461760
192474 22810
Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:
Code Block SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02' INTO AuxiliaryTable FROM myTables WHERE Conditions are true ORDER BY Field01 SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable The the results are:
Field02
----------------------
22810 8461760
And what I need is (without showing any other field):
Field02
----------------------
8461760 22810
Is there any good suggestion? Thanks in advance for any help, Aldo.

Hello, i am pretty new to asp. I am trying to do a select statement for sending an email to everyone who is not an admin. the code is below, i know it must be fairly simple, yet i do not know how to do it. With the code below, I select everyone. I want to know how to do it properly, similar to the second which does not work. Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("SELECT Username, Pass, Gender, FirstName, LastName, Email, NickName FROM tblUsers", conn) DOES NOT WORK: Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("SELECT Username, Pass, Gender, FirstName, LastName, Email, NickName FROM tblUsers WHERE Admin = 'N'", conn) Thanks in advance.

I have a field called "Starting DateTime" and I want to convert into my local time. I can convert it in the report with the expression "=System.TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.ToLocalTime(Fields!Starting_DateTime.Value)", but that is too late. I want to convert it in the Select statement of the query.
Hey gang, I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query') I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling. Here's my current Query this works fine: Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#') What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note. I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
In Code Behind, What is proper select statement syntax to retrieve the @BName field from a table?Using Visual Studio 2003SQL Server DB I created the following parameter:Dim strName As String Dim parameterBName As SqlParameter = New SqlParameter("@BName", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50) parameterBName.Value = strName myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterBName) I tried the following but get error:Dim strSql As String = "select @BName from Borrower where BName= DOROTHY V FOWLER " error is:Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'V'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'V'. Source Error: Line 59: Line 60: Line 61: myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() 'Execute the query
create table #test (id int ,color varchar(20) ) insert into #test (id, color) values (1, 'blue'),(2, 'red'),(3,'green'),(4,'red,green')
if I wanted to run a query to select any records that had red in the color field, how would I do that? Not the one with only red, but a query that would give me both record number 2 and record number 4.
While I have learned a lot from this thread I am still basically confused about the issues involved.
.I wanted to INSERT a record in a parent table, get the Identity back and use it in a child table. Seems simple.
To my knowledge, mine would be the only process running that would update these tables. I was told that there is no guarantee, because the OLEDB provider could write the second destination row before the first, that the proper parent-child relationship would be generated as expected. It was recommended that I create my own variable in memory to hold the Identity value and use that in my SSIS package.
1. A simple example SSIS .dts example illustrating the approach of using a variable for identity would be helpful.
2. Suppose I actually had two processes updating these tables, running at the same time. Then it seems the "variable" method will also have its problems. Is there a final solution other than locking the tables involved prior to updating them or doing something crazy like using a GUID for the primary key!
3. We have done the type of parent-child inserts I originally described from t-sql for years without any apparent problems. (Maybe we were just lucky.) Is the entire issue simply a t-sql one or does SSIS add a layer of complexity beyond t-sql that needs to be addressed?
I want to insert a new record into a table with an Identity field and return the new Identify field value back to the data stream (for later insertion as a foreign key in another table).
What is the most direct way to do this in SSIS?
TIA,
barkingdog
P.S. Or should I pass the identity value back in a variable and not make it part of the data stream?
I have a table with an integer field (contains test values like 2, 7,8,9,12,..) that I want to convert to an Identity field. How can this be done in t-sql?
I have a table named PERSON and a field named PERSON_ID. How can I set this field to Autonumber? I know I have to use the IDENTITY command, but when I view this field in "design" view, all the IDENTITY options are grayed out.
How can I set this field with the IDENTITY properties?

Hi: I created a small SQL Express database/ASP.net/C# application and in the learning process. Before I implement it I would like to re-set autonumber / identity field back to 1. Also, I need to start with the blank database. I am not sure how to approach that? Can you assist? Thanks
Hello friends, I had created a web application and uploaded the application. Now the problem is with the DB. I had created the DB on the server (using script). But the fields that have identity field yes is not been set Now how I can set the fields identity field to yes. Fields are already there. Only I want to set there identity field to yes.Let me know how this can be done. Thanks & RegardsGirish Nehte
Please, How can I get the value of the identity field of the register that I was including in the data base. I am using a stored procedure in SQLSERVER in a asp .net application and I need to show that for the user, it´s like the number of the reclamation.
If my table has an IDENTITY field, say, the table schema is: CREATE TABLE BBB( id int NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1), name varchar(20), job varchar(40)) My data file, which does not carry the IDENTITY field and its field terminator. The data file looks like this:
debbie cao,programmer John Doe,engineer Mary Smith,consultant
I tried to use a format file to bulk copy data from the data file to the table. Never had any luck. On the other hand, if I put a comma before the name field, say, the data file looks like the following:
then, bcp works fine. But, my data file is automatically generated. It does not suppose to have the leading comma. Without the leading comma, I have no idea how may I make bcp work. The SQLBOL says it can be done. Does anybody have an example to show me? Please help, thanks!
We are experiencing an identity problem on a table with 3.7 millions rows of data in the table. The identity field is not auto numbering any more and are wondering if anyone has a suggestion on how to get the auto number field working again without doing a bcp and restoring the table back to the database from bcp. Any suggestions?
Having an unusual problem - have created several (20) tables in a database. All of these tables have an identity field in them (defined as FIELDNAME int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL ). In most of the tables this works as expected, but in 2, so far, when I do the first load (an insert based on a different database) the identity fields are all zero. Have recreated the tables, changed the field name and location, etc. Anyone have any clues ?
I am inserting some values into a table with the following stmt
Insert into table(number,name) values ('12','name')
In the table I have one more identity column ID. I know that I cannot insert a value in that column and the value is automatically increased once I insert a record. After this insert statment, I need to get the value of the ID (the most recent one) in the next select statement.
ie Select @@identity from table (any condition????)
How do I get the most recent ID value? Actually I m inserting the records in a loop and the ID is increased for every insert.
Example of table (currently) PayID (Primary Key) PaymentNumber (Identity Field) John 1 Tim 2 Chris 3 John (same as John above) 4 Jack 5 Steve 6
Would like to see it work this way PayID (Primary Key) PaymentNumber (Identity Field) John 1 John (same as John above) 2 Tim 1 Chris 1 Jack 1 Steve 1
Can the identity column be setup to start the counter over depending on value of PayeeID...If another Jack was added then the Payment Number would be 2 for Jack since there is already a record with value 1....
I inherited a system with a SQL 2000 DB. We discovered an identity field named barcode with some values that are incorrect. About 1000 of the records contain a barcode field with 13 digits, not forteen as required. This field is a standalone field only used on an ID card. I would like to select those 1000 records and update the barcode field to 14 digits. Is there an easy way to do this? Thx
