Types Of Records In Sysobjects
Jun 29, 2006I have a question about the xtype field in the sysobjects view. What do these characters mean? I think I've found lists, but are they complete?
What is the difference between FN and FS?

Hi,
I have a flat file that contains 2 types of records - Dev and production. The Dev will be noted with an D and the Production with a P. These records are different - The dev records are in a different order and contain different info then the Production. I need to use SSIS to import the data into 2 different SQL Tables. How to do this?
Can any one help me
Thanks in advance
SQL Server 2000, ASP.Net 1.1
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the
conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data
to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the
datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i
need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem
with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me
to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order
to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve
them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date
in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a
string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better
off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring
Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with
the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work
manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my
issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some
direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's
got to be a better way...
Confused!
Thanks,

HI there , i have recently upgraded my publishers to 2005.
Transactional replciation seems to be running fine.
However in SS2000 i always used to query sysobjects on replinfo to see if a table was replicaed and how it was replicated, 1 = snapshot , 3 = transactional etc.
However after upgrading replinfo on sysobjects is 0 for all my articles, whats up with this ?
Must i use sp_helparticle only now? Also how does the system know if an object is replicated now , i used to think it used the replinfo column on sysobjects, how is this different in 2005?
Thanx
Hi all,
I have a question about accessing a specific column from the database.
I know when we use: select name from sysobjects would select all the table names and the constraints from the database. I want to select all the column names in each of the table. How can I go about doing this.
Thank you
Hi there,
Once in a while, I find down there are some missing objects in production database. Because we share the sa password with couple of developers, therefore, it's hard find down who did it. So, I try to create a trigger in sysobjects table to prevent this problem, however, I keep getting the error message "error 229: create trigger permission denied on object 'sysobjects'"
although I log in using sa. Can someone give me some suggestions how to prevent this from happening beside using trace profiler and also why do I get the denied message when create trigger on sysobject even with sa login.
Thanks in advance
hi,
can any one tell what is the difference between data in xtype and type columns in sysobjects?
Hello everyone.
I'm facing to a serious problem.
I wanted to migrate SQL 2000 -> SQL 2005.
First of all, I tried to attach my *.mdf file to SQL 2000. but It was not only failed but also SQL 2005 failed to recover my *mdf file.
Now, I think my *.MDF file has system tables for SQL 2005 because when trying to attach *.mdf to SQL 2000 engine send the following message :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Msg 906, Level 22, State 2, Line 1
Could not locate row in sysobjects for system catalog 'Sysobjects' in database 'rudol.net'. This system catalog should exist in all databases. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysobjects in this database.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, I tried again to attach the *.mdf to SQL 2005 but SQL 2005 doesn't really works.
Stupidly, I didn't back up the *.mdf file.
How do I attach it to SQL 2005 or recovery "sysobjects" table for SQL 2000?
Please answer.
P.S.
Forgive my terrible English. English is not my mother tongue.

Hi,I'm using "select [name] from sysobjects where OBJECTPROPERTY(id,N'IsUserTable') = 1" to get all user-defined tables(about 17000tables)and found out there are tables missing in sysobjects.How can I refresh/rebuild sysobjects table?is there a better way to get a list of user-defined tables?thanks,

Is there a reference to describe the relevance of the Category column in the sysobjects table? I'm trying to track down stored procedures that are set to automatically run at startup and the only thing I can find that is consistent about those that are set to autorun is that they have a value of 16 in the Category column. Is this consistent? What else may I glean from this column?
Thanks

I would like to know how can i check from SQL statement that
whether LinkedSERVER exists or not like we search a table from "sysobjects"
Is there a way where i can search my LinkedServer exists ?
if exists (select * from sysobjects where name = ['mylinkedserver'])
Hey all,
Not sure how I did this, but I dropped a table and it still shows up in sysobjects. This breaks a job that rebuilds indexes because the table doesn't exist. I tried recreating and dropping the table, but the extra entry is still there. Would it be okay to just delete the row from sysobjects? This has happened in a 2000 and 2005 db at the same time.
Thanks for any advice.

I've fully verified the correct existence of the table and how it links to the object ID by running statements like:
quote:select * from sysobjects where name = 'MyTable' and type = 'U'
select object_id('MyTable')
select object_name(55671246)
Odd that when selecting data from the table the error refers to the database by the table name. Running checktable on sysobjects shows no errors.
Running sp_help 'MyTable' works and shows the expected results as far as columns, indexes, and such. The table structure is fully visible in Management Studio and can be visually explored. Only when querying data is there an issue.
All tables are owned by dbo.
Ideally I need to recover these tables. If that is impossible, I'd like to remove the tables and cleanly free up all the related data pages.
Any thoughts?
Hi,I'm trying to determine with my program whether or not a given databasesupports a given feature set. To do this I'm querying for certain storedprocedures in the sysobjects table and if they are present, making theassumption the database will support the given feature. The problem is Ican't find a certain stored procedure in the sysobjects table, even though Iknow it exists and can see other similar procedures using:select * from dbo.sysobjects order by nameIts as if all of my other stored procedures are in the sysobjects tableexcept this one, the one I'm specifically querying for. Are there certainreasons why a proc won't appear in the sysobjects table? Is this somethingI need to fix?Thanks,Robin

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I've written a scalar function in C# for the MS SQL Server 2005 that has to have access to two databases in one instance of a server ("database1" and "database2"). I got information from database1, calculate the name of the database2 and got information from user's tables in the database2. But when I'm trying to get informatin from "sys.tables", "sys.columns", "sysobjects" I always get an error "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: This statement has attempted to access data whose access is restricted by the assembly."
All databases are inside one server, I can run this quieries in SQL Server management Studio - could anybody help me what should I set/change to get metainformation from another database in the same server (in fact I need a list of fields of a curtain table).
Thanks,
Alex Gerasimov
P.S. Atrribute [SqlFunction(DataAccess = DataAccessKind.Read)] is in the applicaiton.
All my online research has told me how to get info about a table field's data using the system tables, but I can't find anything that tells how to get that table field's data specifically. Could be that it's difficult to explain so difficult to search on but I know there has to be a way to do this and it can't be that difficult.
How do I use the system tables sysobjects and syscolumns to give me the data from a specific field in a third table?
Basically I don't want to know the field type for a tables field, I want to know that field's value.
Let's say I have a table called tblCompanies and that table has 4 fields. idCompany, companyName, companyState, and companyCountry.
How can I return the value as a command parameter for any one of the 4 fields using sysobjects and syscolumns?
If I were writing dynamic SQL I would do something like this:
set @valueToReturn = exec ('select ' + @fieldNameToReturn + ' from ' + @tableToSearch + ' where ' + @fieldToMatchOn + ' = ' + @valueToMatchOn)
But I don't want to use dynamic SQL, I want to use the existing system tables to write a straightforward query. My nonfunctioning/English version of this would be:
give me the value for the field name I send in as a string (@fieldNameToReturn)
from the table I send in as a string (@tblToSearch)
where (sysobjects.name = @tblToSearch) and (syscolumns.name = @fieldNameToReturn) and (@tblToSearch.@fieldnameToMatchOn = @valueToMatchAgainst)
I'm using sysobjects and syscolumns because that's where I can use my variables for table name and column name to link. I just can't figure out how to get hold of my actual data table and the values in it.
Does that make any sense to anyone? I'm sure someone has had to want something like this.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I think this should be a dead easy one.
SQL Server 200.
Can I query to find all the tables in a single schema? I can't for the life of me find this one out!
I'm currently using a dreaded cursor with an exists test to get the results I want but there is surely an easier way!

Greetings:I have to do a one-off forceful change of some data in a database. Ineed to disable some FK constraints, make the data change, and thenre-enable the constraints.My process will be:ALTER TABLE TABLE1 NOCHECK CONSTRAINT FK_TABLE1_TABLE2UPDATE TABLE1 SET COLUMN1=2 WHERE COLUMN2='Problem row'ALTER TABLE TABLE1 CHECK CONSTRAINT FK_TABLE1_TABLE2I wanted to get some evidence that the constraints were back up after Idid the 'check constraint' statements, so I looked in sysobjects.There's a status column for the constraints, but I can't make muchsense of the numbers. Most of the FK constraints that I have notchanged are of status 0, but when I NOCHECK a constraint, it goes to2304. When I CHECK it again, it's 2408.Can someone explain this, and suggest a way to double-check that myconstraints are in fact enabled once I run the CHECK statement?Thanks!!
View 2 Replies View Relatedhi all,i was using the system tables namely sysindexes and sysobjects in sql server 2000. But now sql server 2005 is using instead of sql server 2000. Since am using sysindexes and sysobjects, too much time is taking for the execution in sql server 2005. So I need to change the query suitable for sql server 2005.I have read in msdn that the system tables are replaced with corresponding catalog views in sql server 2005. The catelog view for sysobjects is sys.objects. plz check the link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187997.aspxCould anyone please tell me how to replace the sysindexes and sysobjects in the query without rewriting the query too much. If I can replacesysobjects with just sys.objects, then it will be very helpful. Is it possible? And what about sysindexes. Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated!
View 8 Replies View RelatedHi,
I granted all the rights on the database to the user (db_owner, public, db_datawriter, etc...) However, I didn't grant the "System Administrators" role. I also specifically granted the select on those tables (sysobjects and sysindexes) for the user and checked through ‘sp_helprotect sysobjects’ command whether there are no specific revokes for for that user.
However, the user is still getting the below error while trying to expand the "Tables" view in the Enterprise Manager.
ERROR 229: SELECT permission denied on object 'sysobjects', database 'My_test', owner 'dbo', SELECT permission denied on object 'sysindexes', database 'My_test', owner 'dbo'.
Also, the user claims that he can’t seem to do anything with the database, he can’t view any objects, and, when he goes to Query Analyzer, if he tries to run a SELECT query on a table (that he know that this table exists), he gets this error:
SELECT permission denied on object 'tblBillingTrans', database 'My_Test', owner 'dbo'.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I´m exporting an ms-excel file, then I use a lookup transformation to get a field from a SQL Server 2005 table. The Lookup transformation editor, after selecting the table, shows a warning that says:
at least one mapping between a column from available input columns ans a column from available lookup columns must be defined on the columns page.
So I try to make a relationship in the Lookup transformation editor's column tab where I find the Available input columns and the available lookup columns but I get the following error:
The following columns cannot be mapped:
[Department, DEP_CLEGALCODE]
One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.
The field in SLQ Server is varchar(10) and the input field is a derived column transformation; I have tried different Data Types but I always have the same error.
The DataFlow is: ExcelSource --> Derived Column --> Lookup --> Flat file destination
thanks.

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..
declare @table table (
ParentID INT,
ChildID INT,
Value float
)
INSERT INTO @table
SELECT 1,1,1.2
[code]....
This case ParentID - Child 1 ,1 & 2,2 and 3,3 records are called as parent where as null , 1 is child whoose parent is 1 similarly null,2 records are child whoose parent is 2 , .....
Now my requirement is to display parent records with value ascending and display next child records to the corresponding parent and parent records are sorted ascending

HI,
I have been trying to solve the locking problem from past couple of days. Please help mee!!
Scenario:
--------------
I have a SSIS package in which 2 data flow tasks. 1st data flow task deletes records from a 5 tables and the 2nd data flow task should insert records into 1 of the five tables after the success of 1st data flow task. This scenario runs in Transacation.
The above scenrio in the 2nd data flow task hangs in runtime. It does not complete. with sp_who2 command i could see that there is an intent share lock(LK_M_IS) on the table and the status is SUSPENDED.
I dont know how to come out of this locking. Please help.
Thanks ,

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).
