I have one table namely consumer with approx 50 columns.
I have created one same table with audit prefix including 2 more column for action n timestamp fields.
My question is that if user change only 10 column data at a time: i want to add only that particular column data rather to add entire row. Currently I am adding entire row in audit table but now scenario is change to update only updated column data.
I am populating oracle source in Sql Server Destination. after few rows it fails it displays this error:
[OLE DB Destination [16]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description:
"Invalid date format".
I used this script component using the following code in between the adapters, However after 9,500 rows it failed again giving the same above error:
To convert Oracle timestamp to Sql Server timestamp
If Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUST_IsNull = False Then
If IsDate(DateSerial(Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUST.Year, Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUST.Month, Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUST.Day)) Then
dt = Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUST
Row.CALCULATEDETADATECUSTD = dt
End If
End If
I don't know if my code is right . Please inform, how i can achieve this.

I have a table with above values, I am looking for a sql query to find AvgTimeTaken at different time stamps and total count of each time stamp
Output

For starters, please feel free to move this if it is in the wrong forum.
The issue I have is this. I have been asked to delete all information from a table that was inserted before May 12 this year. The issue is that when the DB was created, whoever designedd it neglected to add a timestamp column for the user data table (the one I need to purge). Does SQL, by default, happen to store insert times? Would it be something that might hide ina log file somewhere?
Hello:
I am running into an issue with RS2k PDF export.
Case: Exporting Report to PDF/Printing/TIFF
Report: Contains 1 table with 19 Columns. 1 column is static, the other 18 are visible at the users descretion. Report when printed/exported to pdf spans 2 pages naturally, 16 on the first page, 3 on the second, and the column widths have been adjusted to provide a perfect page span .
User A elects to hide two of the columns, and show the rest. The report complies and the viewable version is perfect, the excel export is perfect.. the PDF export on the first page causes every fith column, starting with the last column that was hidden to be expanded to take up additional width. On the spanned page, it renders the first column on that page correctly, then there is a white space gap equal to the width of the hidden columns and then the rest of the cells show with the last column expanded to take up the same width that the original 2 columns were going to take up, plus its width.
We have tried several different settings to see if it helps this issue or makes it worse. So far cangrow/canshrink/keep together have made no impact. It is not possible to increase the page size due to limited page size selection availablility for the client. There are far too many combinations of what the user can elect to show or hide to put together different tables to show and hide on the same report to remove this effect.
Any help or suggestion on this issue would be appreciated

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I just started using SQL and i don't really know too much syntax.
I have an ASP page that is inserting data into a table called YellowAlerts.
The first field in this table is AlertDate. I thought I read somewhere that there is a timestamp feature. If anyone could help me out that would be great.
Thanks.
How can I add a timestamp column to a table that will let me know when
a record was inserted? (perhaps by setting a default to that column?)
For some reason, @@currenttimestamp gives me
some binary garbage.
Please help with any suggestions.
How do I "disable" the timestamp so that when I copy my data into a new
database it will use the timestamp from the last time the table was effected?
Thanks,

Hi All,
I believe that all created tables have got by default a timestamp field.
I tried to find out how to read this field with a Transact-SQL statement.
And so I don't know the syntax, is anyone can help me ?

If i have a table with a 3 fields and one of them has a timestamp as a field type and I want to do an insert or update what is the value I am inserting for the column timestamp.
Help appreciated
hello I put a time stamp in one of my column and it says binary data in the field. How do i make that binary data turn into a real date and time. If this is possible how do I separate the date from the time in the results or would I have to do this myself. Also, I need to sort the results by date can this be done?
Sorry for the stupid questions my sql book (sql demystified) does not elaborate. Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi there,
When inserting into a table with a timestamp column without explicitly setting the column_list you get the following.
ie.
insert into Table_A
select *
from Table_B
Cannot insert a non-null value into a timestamp column. Use INSERT with a column list or with a default of NULL for the timestamp column.
I was wondering if there's a way to overcome this without specifying the column list?
Thanks.

Hi folks, I am binding a gridview to a SQLDataSource that contains a timestamp column. My SQLDatasource contains an update method (via a stored procedure) that takes all of the data fields from the grid as input parameters. I am getting an error stating 'sql_variant is incompatible with timestamp' . The parameter definition for the update method specifies the timestamp column as type 'Object'. <UpdateParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="timestamp" Type="Object" /> ... </UpdateParameters> When the data is initially retrieved, the timestamp column is converted to a System.Byte[] however I cannot specify System.Byte[] in the parameter definition (different error) I have read other post with this issue but none seemed to have been solved (while still using SQLDataSource and binding).I have tried other datatypes and they do not work as well. Any help would be greatly appreciatedThanksTom
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a database that I don't want to lock. I decided that before any updates can occur I would check a timestamp value and ensure that nobody else updated before I did (avoiding the 'last update wins' scenario).
I have a problem, I can read the Timestamp from the db when I read the record. I currently use the data to pre-fill a form (gee go figure ;) ) and the user changes some values and updates.
I don't know what to DO with the timestamp value while I am holding it. I have tried putting it into a hidden field on the form but the value does not seem to translate back and forth.
Do I have to store it as in memory as part of the session or can I somehow convert to and from text??
I have about 0 experience working with byte arrays so the best answer is one with an example.
Thanks.
Hi world,I would like to know how to maintain a table with a "timestamp" column. I mean a column that automatically set the current datetime when the row is updated.I don't want to go trought my application and set that in the update or insert command. I would like to know if there is a possibility of putting a trigger or something.thx

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table in SQL server 6.5 which has two columns. One is a timestamp column and another is an int column. Now I need to change the int column to numeric (16). For this I cannot use the alter table statement as it is not there in sql server 6.5. I tried creating another table with two columns- one as numeric(16) and the other as timestamp. I transferred the data from he old table to the new table and dropped the old table and finally renamed the new table as the name of the old table. But the problem is that the timestamp column now contains data that is different from the data that was there in the original column. I cannot update the timestamp column as that is done automatically neither can I insert the values. How do I make sure that the data in the timestamp column remains the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

can i convert a timestamp data type
View 1 Replies View RelatedActually 'TIMESTAMP' is used to monitor the INSERTION AND UPDATION on a table.Based on that 'TIMESTAMP', is it possible to extract any details by appling some QUERY in QUERY ANALYZER?. If anybody gives a solution to this I will be thankful to them.

I'm having trouble converting a timestamp value passed into a stored procedure as a char to binary(8). For example, the value passed in is
'00000000000002CA'. I want to convert to a binary(8) value so I can use this in the where clause of a query.
I can't seem to get the conversion to work correctly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
How can I check the timestamp on the table last updated?
View 1 Replies View Relatedhi all,
I have a desktop edition of SQL server installed on nt.4.00.sp 5
from what i know..a timestamp field should insert current date & time...right?
So..
if i run these statements:
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[T1] Script Date: 12/7/99 10:45:49 AM ******/
if exists (select * from sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[T1]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[T1]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[T1] Script Date: 12/7/99 10:45:51 AM ******/
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T1] (
[column_1] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[column_2] [varchar] (30) NULL ,
[column_3] [int] NULL ,
[column_4] [timestamp] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
INSERT INTO T1 (column_2,column_3)VALUES ('new', 123)
INSERT INTO T1 (column_2,column_3)VALUES ('new1', 1234)
INSERT INTO T1 (column_2,column_3)VALUES ('new2', 12345)
go
SELECT cast(column_4 as smalldatetime)
