Design Question About Status And Expire Date
Jul 23, 2007I have a design question that I was hoping you all can help with.
When I normally design a table I always make sure to include a status field. This way I can "delete" a record without actually having to delete it, just update the record to a status which signifies deleted. This ensures my users have an undelete capability as well as safesguarding against the "mad clickers" which click right through the "You are deleting this record..." alerts.
I have been recently adding tables which have temporary records and are meant to expire at a certain date. I have designed these tables to have an expiration date field AND a status field.
My question is this: What is the normal convention relating to these types of records/tables? Should queries using these types of tables query them using the status AND the expiration date? Should you create a job that updates the records status based on the expiration date being passed. Should you use a view that only displays current records based on expiration date?
I just want to make sure Im following standard practice as I design these types of tables.
Thanks for your help!

Date Picker Bug - Drops The Default Value And Displays Default Value As Todays Date
Apr 3, 2008
Hi,
Does anyone have a workaround or know of a fix to this problem:
Default value set to 'date pick' from date currently within field by setting value equal to that field . ie if date is 01/01/2010 date picker opens in Jan 2010 - works ok.
However, once published to Sharepoint and run through browser the Date Picker ignores the default value and the date picker opens for today. ie April 2008.
Any words of wisdom gratefully recieved,
Howard Stiles
Default Date(current Date) Function W/ Update?
Mar 10, 2008I have a reference table that currently has no web front-end. It's a small table(<10 rows) that's not going to change very often (maybe once every few months).
We manually update rows on the table via the GUI table interface in Enterprise Mgr., not in T-SQL.
What I'd like to do is have SQL Server automatically update the "Last_Modified" column with the current timestamp. I can do it on an Insert using the GetDate() function, but if I update a row, this doesn't work.
Is there a function I can use that can auto-populate for both insert and updates?

Make Password Expire
Apr 29, 2008Hi all,Suppose I have a SQL database table called Customer Info which contains six fields namely Customer ID, Address, First , Last Name , Password, and Time Remaining. The Time Remaining field contains the amount of time that a customer has before his or her password expires. I would like info in this field to be in hours and minutes and when it reaches zero, I would like the password to be deleted from the database. So I have two questions and please take into consideration that I am using dot net 2.0.1) Can this be done without having to write a custom function?2) If this can only be done by creating a custom function, how would I get the function to communicate with the database, in other words how would I let the function know that a customer's time is up? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance for your help.

Dec 7, 2005Hi, I probably do something stupid, but I cannot figure out how to set the date as deault when
inserting a record in a table. I have created a Default in the database, giving it a name and the Value = GetDate() and bind it to the desired column.
When I insert a record without filling in a value in this datefield, the table shows me "01/01/1900" in stead of Today.
What am I doing wrong ?
Help is appreciated, Ger.
Default Date
Jan 11, 2002I am trying to insert a row in a table. One of the column has been defined as smalldatetime datatype.
The insertion is successful but some default date is getting inserted in the date field. The default date is 1/1/1900.
I haven't given any default date.
I want to insert null in that field. I don't want any default date to get inserted.
If you have any solution to this please reply urgently.
Thanks.

View 1 Replies View RelatedDefault Date
Apr 17, 2008I am developing reports against OLAP cube. I can select the date (calendar year) or Month Name from the date dimension to display as a parameter to the report. But, when I show that parameter drop down, how do I default the value for the current month or year? I tried the default values in the report parameters as a non-queried value writing an expression, but whatever I write there, it ignores when showing drop down. Any ideas?
Please remember again that this is against Date dimension and also that Month and Year are two separate parameters (thus constituting two separate combo boxes and they are not multi-value).

Default Table Owner Using CREATE TABLE, INSERT, SELECT && DROP TABLE
Nov 21, 2006For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

How NOT To Expire The ReportSession And ControlID In The Request
Feb 22, 2007This question is related to VSTS and above parameters in the request. Question is:
A script created with VSTS for testers has hard coded values for ReportSession and ControlID in the requests, These IDs are expired after some time and scripts fails to run after few hours. Can some one tell me how to set the session expiration time on these ID's in the Report server so I can increase the value to 60*24*365 (1 year) this would solve my problem with hard coded values in the scripts for above mentioned IDs.

Need Assistance In Determining Expiring (and Soon To Expire) Sql Accounts
Jul 31, 2007I have a question regarding notification of password expirations.
Background: My workplace will soon be enforcing the password policy and password expiration facilities in SQL Server 2005. My understanding (and correct me if I am wrong) is that the period of validity for a password before expiration occurs comes from either active directory, or where there is no AD, the local machine security policy.
Because we are on a Novell network our SQL2K5 servers are all mixed authentication. For development purposes we are each given a separate account. Our applications, too, use sql accounts (not windows accounts) for database access. Having a development account expire unexpectedly is no problem; we'll change those passwords as they need to be. What I am concerned with is the accounts our applications use to access the database server; like most IT shops, our applications need to be available with interruptions in service as minimal as possible.
I would like to create and schedule a report to run every morning listing those accounts that are about to expire, or have expired, so that those passwords can be changed with little to no interruption in service.
Question: Where do I pull this data from? I couldn't find anything in the BOL, or online (so far), giving the details of how to determine when a particular account is nearing expiration, or has expired.
I would appreciate any advice anyone has to offer.
Best,
B.
Default Date Output Format
Sep 19, 2001Hi Kids,
I've just upgraded a 6.5 database to version 7.0 and I'm having a problem with default date output formats.
Under 6.5 the output format was: Sep 2 2001 12:00PM
Under 7.0 the same field is output as: 2001-09-02 12:00:00.000
Is there a way to permanently set the default output format for dates on a database or server wide?
Thanks

SQL Server 7 Default Date Format
Jun 28, 2000Hi Dear All DBAs
Does anyone know whether you can specify date format(EG dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy) for SQL server when you install it?
It seems to me that it always assume US date format when converting a date string to a datatime variable.
You can easily try this by running query
Select convert(smalldatetime, "30/5/2000"). It would say "...out of range..." until you use "5/30/2000". It does not seem to relate to NT regional setting(I already set it to our local setting dd/mm/yyyy).
You can use "set dateformat" in the application to get around it.
But I would like to change the default format to dd/mm/yyyy.
Any solution? (EG reinstall SQL server?)

Default Date Format Used By Mssql
Nov 18, 2006Hi there,
What is the default date format used by transact sql? Would YYYY-MM-DD HOUR:MIN:SECS format work on Mssql?
I am working on a project that needs to work with atleast two databases (Mysql/Mssql). I use the above date format and while it works perfectly on all Mysql databases, it gives me trouble in some Mssql setups.
Most of the trouble arises when I am doing INSERT or SELECT queries.
How do I handle this? Is there some way that I can tell Mssql that I am using the yyyy-mm-dd format or should I find out what format that particular mssql is using and adopt it?
Last Monday Date As Default Parameter Value
Dec 3, 2007
I have a stored procedure that grabs the Region key from the user, and the date. But i want to set up 5 reports, for day of the week. So i want to make the second parameter a defualt parameter set by me in each report. which is better then having to create 5 stored procedures with the same info just different dates.
when i try to enter the same data i have in my stored procedure to get Mondays date, i get an error.
Here is what i entered in the report parameter default expression box for the date :
=DATEADD(dd, - 6, DATEADD(dd, 1 - DATEPART(w, GETDATE()), CONVERT(varchar, GETDATE(),
101))))
but i keep getting an error that says:
The Value expression for the report parameter €˜Daily_activity_statistics_datetime€™ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'dd' is not declared.
Build complete -- 1 errors, 0 warnings
whats wrong with it? This works fine in the stored procedure for the where clause. Please help! this would save me alot of time.
