Checking A Table To See If A Record Already Exists
Sep 19, 2007I've got two tables, one containing a list of company names(approx 10,000 records), the other containing a list of company employees (approx 30,000 records) joined by the CompanyID column.
I have a third table (approx 700 records) containing new employees to be added to the employee table. Each record in this table has the employees details plus the name of their company.
I want to write a query that will check each row in the third table to see if
a) the employee exists in the Employees table
b) the company exists in the Companies table and
c) the employee is listed under the correct company
The query should also handle any combination of the above. So if the company doesn't exist but the employee does, create the company on the companies table and update the appropriate record on the employees table with the new CompanyID etc. etc.
Oh, forgot to mention. The company names in the third table won't be exactly the same as the ones in the Company table so will need to use CharIndex.
Anybody got any ideas?

Checking Schema Of Source Table
Sep 23, 2007Greetings!!
I have a MsAccess db containing a table called Employees which i am transforming to Sql server 2005. Everything is working fine. I am using Foreach File enumerator and uploading the files one by one.
However I now plan to validate the schema of MsAccess before uploading it. For eg: My employee table in msaccess is as follows :
Employees
empId int,
empName varchar(60),
empAge int
Since the files come from different vendor, while looping, i want to perform a check if the empid or empAge are not of type long or are not null. If they are of type smallint,i have no problem.
However if they are larger datatypes than the the ones kept in Sql server, then the file needs to be logged in the db with the reason and moved to the error folder. In short, if the datatypes in access tables are smaller than those in Sqlserver, allow it, otherwise reject it.
THe schema of Sqlserver table is same as of that of Employees in msaccess.
How do I do it.
Thanks ,

Stored Procedure Checking The Values In Another Table
Mar 26, 2008I have two tables called A and B and C. Where A and C has the same schema
A contains the following columns and values-------------------------------------------PoId Podate Approved
2 2008-07-07 No 4 2007-05-05 No 5 2005-08-06 Yes 6 2006-07-07 Yes
Table B contains the following columns and values-------------------------------------------------TaskId TableName Fromdate Approved_Status
1 A 7/7/2007 No3 B 2/4/2006 Yes
Now i need to create a stored procedure that should accept the values (Yes/No) from the Approved_Status column in Table B and should look for the same values in the Approved column in Table A. If both values match then the corresponding rows in Table A should be archived in table C which has the same schema as that of Table A. That is the matching columns should get deleted from Table A and shoud be inserted into Table C.
Pls provide me with full stored procedure code.
It is very urgent.
Checking For Existence Of A Temp Table Before Droping It
Dec 31, 2003I'm familiar with how to check for the existence of a table before dropping it using the following command:
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[xxx]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[xxx]
How does one check for the existence of a temp table (using # syntax) before dropping it? I've tried various flavors of this command and none work. One flavor is
use tempdb
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[#xxx]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[#xxx]
CREATE TABLE #xxx (
NumID INTEGER IDENTITY(1,1),
Exhibitor_Id INTEGER NOT NULL,
Company_Id INTEGER NOT NULL
)
Thanks.

Point Of Information - Checking For Existence Of A Table In Another Database...
Feb 22, 2005Hi all,
While cleaning up some code, I ran across the following statement in a stored proc - the purpose of which is to determine if a table exists in the local database: SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[XML_PRINTDATE]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1of course I removed it from the IF just for testing purposes, but my quandry is this...
Why chose that select (converting table name to object ID) rather than just doing THIS:SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects where name = N'XML_PRINTDATE' and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1
I first thought it was to gain access to the "id" column value (and that may yet be the purpose of it), but the second code seems to work just peachy (I assume because the id column is present in the sysobjects table itself).
A follow-on question is this:
When I try to do the same check from another server (i.e.SELECT * FROM APRECEIVE1.DailyProd.dbo.sysobjects where name = N'XML_PRINTDATE' and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) it of course fails because OBJECTPROPERTY only looks for the id on the local database.
So, do I CARE if it is a user table? (I am reasonably sure it is, of course) and if so, is there a way to check on the remote server for the object type?
Bottom line is I Think I can just simplify things and check for the object name on the remote server, but just don't want to take away any "warm fuzzy feeling" generated by the original stored proc, if such a warm fuzzy is of any benefit (though don't get me started on the relativity of warm fuzzies, I wrote my Thesis on that ;) )
SQL Server 2012 :: Date Range Checking In Table
Mar 16, 2015I have a table with EmployeeID, StartDate, and EndDate with a PK of EmployeeID, StartDate. How can I check to see that there's no overlap for StartDate and EndDate for a given employee? That is, on any given day there must only be 1 row for an employee where Getdate() is Between StartDate and EndDate. For an active employee their EndDate is set to 06/06/2079.
I've tried it using Row_Number() with Over() but am returning too many rows indicating overlap when none exists.

Checking For Row Existence
Nov 1, 2006Can someone show me some C# code for detecting if a SQL row exists or not? This seems like a very typical action and I cannot for the life of me find a tutorial online that explains this step. In my code I'm either going to INSERT or UPDATE a record. I tried sending a SELECT command through a ExecuteNonQuery, but only got -1 as a response. Apparently ExecuteNonQuery does not work with SELECT. I then saw that T-SQL has an EXISTS keyword, but I cannot see anyway to use that from within C#.So...can anyone share the typical code they use to identify if a row exists or not within a database. I guess I was execting there to be some method available to do this sort of thing.

View 3 Replies View RelatedChecking Character Set
May 2, 2002I've forgotten the character set that I've chosen when I was installing the SQL Server 7. Is there a way to check?
I'm currently using US English version of Windows NT4 and SQL7. But interestingly, all the data is in Japanes characters. It's actually for a Japanese website, and the front-end application is written in ASP. I remember reading somewhere that it is impossible to do certain type of sorting (by some particular order for the Japanese language) as it is limited by the choice of the language of the NT OS.
The type of sorting that I'm looking at is the grouping of 5-characters. One example is in http://www.forest.impress.co.jp/aiueo.html
Would this be possible with my current setup? Or would it help if I migrate over to Windows 2000? (I'd rather not move to Japanese NT4)
Your feedback and advice would be very much appreciated!

Checking For A Range
Aug 5, 2004I want to do a check to see if a number falls within a range specified by the user. Basically, they enter in a min and max value and I return a hit if a number falls inbetween.
I have having trouble with my SQL statement:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT *
FROM Table
WHERE ( (0=0)
AND
(min.value <= Table.Value <= max.value) )
(This isn't my actual code, but just the logic)
It will return all the results everytime. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could be missing here?
Thanks in advance!
Checking Job Status Using SQL-DMO
Jun 27, 2004I have a question I hope someone can help me with.
My situation:
I have a single-step job in SQL Server, which runs a stored procedure, A. This stored procedure invokes another stored procedure, B. In B, one of the statements is a 'BACKUP DATABASE' command, and a database is backed up to a file.
The job is started by an application. Once started, the application then uses the SQL-DMO property CurrentRunStatus to periodically check the status of the job. When the property returns the value SQLDMOJobExecution_Idle (indicating the job has completed), the application code then continues processing, and attempts to access the .dat file produced by the 'BACKUP DATABASE' command.
My problem:
On occasion, the application will hit the problem where either the backup file cannot be located, or the file is still being locked by another process (Error=The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process).
Is anyone able to shed some light on this?
I assume that the job will only return a completed status after:
(a) both A and B have completed execution, and
(b) the BACKUP operation has completed
Is it possible that even though SQL Server indicates the job has finished, that the BACKUP operation still hasn't completely ended?
Thanks for any help,
Andrew

Way Of Checking To See If All SP's Work
Jul 25, 2007Our System currently has on the upwards of 300 stored procedures in it.
We have SP's that call SP's that call SP's and sometimes a Stored Procedure will return 10 ResultSets which are used by .NET.
Some of our developers do not check other stored procedures when they modify the SP parameters, and in doing so break the system until the testers find it.
is there a way to run a command to check ALL the stored procedures to see if they work, they match the SP they're calling, etc?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSecurity Checking
Nov 16, 2007SQL Server allows for a user to have SELECT permission on a View withoutthat user requiring an associated SELECT permission on the underlying tablethat the VIEW accesses, but the user can still access the data through theView. A similar arrangement holds true for stored procedures.So based on these initial known behaviours, I have a couple of questions:1. If a stored procedure A executes stored procedure B, does the user of Arequire execute permission for B also? Or will access to B be permittedregardless because the user was given access to A?2. Similarly, if a stored procedure A accesses a View, does the user of Arequire permissions on the referenced View?I guess to paraphrase what I am trying to determine is whether SQL Serveronly checks permissions at the "entry" point of a particular function, orwhether permission checks are performed "intra-function". My openingexamples imply they are only checked "on entry", but I am wondering if thisbehaviour is entirely consistent. Perhaps the SQL Standard mandates this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHelp With Error Checking
Nov 9, 2007I have built a procedure to send mail using OLE Automation and want to be able to trap error information when it doesn't work. So in an attempt to do that I have the following stored procedure that will return informaiton if the return value is <> 0. Here is how it is being used:
IF @return <> 0
BEGIN
EXECUTE sp_displayoaerrorinfo @handle, @return
END
ELSE
PRINT 'Success'
This works fine, but I would like to write the error message to a table and so I thought I could just alter to to be:
IF @return <> 0
BEGIN
EXECUTE sp_displayoaerrorinfo @handle, @return = @failure
END
ELSE
PRINT 'Success'
Where @failure is a variable I declared earlier. Then I could insert the value of this variable along with some other infomration into a table that would track the errors. However, when I do this I receive the following:
Error: Procedure or Function 'sp_DisplayOAErrorInfo' expects parameter '@HResult', which was not supplied. Number:201 Severity:16 State:4
So it isn't seeing that I am passing two variables into the stored procedure. I know I must be missing something simple but I've tried a bunch of different itterations and can't seem to get it right. Any help would be great. Thanks.
