I have a script that is supposed to run thru 2 joined tables and update a field in the 3rd table. The script works but takes approx. 4 hours to run against 250k records.
UPDATE a
SET Con_Mailings = STUFF((SELECT '; ' + c.ListName
FROM [server].[xxxxx_MSCRM].[dbo].ListBase c with (nowait)
INNER JOIN [server].[xxxxxx_MSCRM].[dbo].[ListMemberBase] b with (nowait)
ON b.ListID = c.ListID
WHERE b.EntityID = a.TmpContactID
FOR XML PATH('')),1,1,'')
FROM [xx_Temp].[dbo].[Lyris_CombinedTest] a
I should end up with something like this in the con_mailings field:
'Mailing1, Mailing2, Mailing3'
I'm managing an amature online university and I've been charged with creating a deans list. I have a table for exam results for each course.. currently totaling 5. I have an employeeID column and a total_points column in each table. Sooooo I need to join all the tables and get an average for total_points where the employeeID matches across tables. I have no idea how to write this select.. any help?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two tables: eg. a person-table (no nulls allowed), with an idand so on, and a person_course table (an intermediate table in amany-to many relationship between person table and courses tables),with two fields person_id and course_id.But I want to make ONE multipurpose stored procedure, which has ONLYoptional parameters on all fields in the person table AND the fieldcourse_id in the person_course table.I have no problems making optional parameters on the person table (eg.P.ID=ISNULL(@PersonID, P.ID ) ) BUT the problem is, when I try to addan optional parameter on the field course_id it dosn't produce theright results. Some times the course_id is null (because some personshavn't joined a class yet).Is there a way around it?Ole S. Pedersen

Hello all,
Iv been making a lot of progress on my first functional webapp, but I cannot get this bit of code to work correctly. I think my UPDATE SQL statement is where the problem is. It works fine the first time through when there is no Session("estimateid") set, but after that is set it gives me error this on line 40:

Guys - sorry for the long post - hope it's clear
DDL/DML below
I want to update the startdate column (for all rows) so that when period is 0 then the new value
is a hardcoded value (say '01-Dec-2000') but for all other rows it takes the value in the
enddate column for the row of the previous column (with the same freq)
ie the startdate column for period 1 takes the enddate value for period 0 and so on for a particular freq
create table #periods (period int , startdate datetime , [enddate] datetime , freq int)
insert #periods ( period , startdate , enddate , freq)
select 0 , '01-Jan-1900' , '31-Jan-2001' , 1

Hi
i have a view that contain multiple tables from my database and i want to view it on datagridview and update it's data
some people says you can update joined tables using instead of triggers
how is that ?is there any example ?
thanks in advance.
Each row of my datagrid comes from two tables, A and B, which are (left) joined: not every row from table A has a corresponding row in table B. I think this is quite a common scenario.If I want to edit a row in my datagrid which contains data from both Table A and Table B then presumably I can just use an UPDATE statement behind the scenes.But what happens if I want to edit a particular row in the datagrid which contains data from Table A but no corresponding data from table B? I can't use an UPDATE statement because the record in Table B doesn't yet exist. So what do I do?Does anyone know the answer to this, or could you point me to a good tutorial please?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a query written that filters on joined table data. The SELECT looks like this:
SELECT *
FROM tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')
ORDER BY a.bol_number DESC
If I want to do an UPDATE query that uses those filters in the WHERE clause, how do I go about doing that? It doesn't look like you can used joined tables in the UPDATE line like this:
UPDATE tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
SET accrueamt='1348'
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')
I am trying to get a SQL statement to work with both Access 2000 and SQL Server 2000.
The statement that works in SQL Server is:
---
UPDATE [myTable2]
SET
[myTable2].[FieldA] = 'Hello',
[myTable2].[FieldB] = 2,
[myTable2].[FieldC] = 'xxx',
[myTable2].[FieldD] = 0
FROM [myTable1] INNER JOIN
(myTable2 INNER JOIN [myTable3]
ON [myTable2].[FieldX]=[myTable2].[FieldY])
ON [myTable1].[FieldZ]=[myTable2].[FieldY]
WHERE ([myTable2].[FieldY]=1)
And ([myTable3].[FieldZ]='xxx');
---
(names have been changed to protect the innocent)
The statement that works in Access is:
---
UPDATE [myTable1] INNER JOIN
(myTable2 INNER JOIN [myTable3]
ON [myTable2].[FieldX]=[myTable2].[FieldY])
ON [myTable1].[FieldZ]=[myTable2].[FieldY]
SET
[myTable2].[FieldA] = 'Hello',
[myTable2].[FieldB] = 2,
[myTable2].[FieldC] = 'xxx',
[myTable2].[FieldD] = 0
WHERE ([myTable2].[FieldY]=1)
And ([myTable3].[FieldZ]='xxx');
---
It seems that neither will accept the other format. Can anyone suggest how I can rearrange the statement so that it works in both?
Hello
Is it possible to insert data into a temp table with data returned from a stored procedure joined with data from another table?
insert #MyTempTable
exec [dbo].[MyStoredProcedure] @Par1, @Par2, @Par3
JOIN dbo.OtherTable...
I'm missing something before the JOIN command. The temp table needs to know which fields need be updated.
I just can't figure it out
Many Thanks!

I want to update a field with a trigger only if a specific field is updated.
When I try the code below, it updates the field when any field in the record is updated. Is there a way to only make look at picked_dt?
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[UpdatePickedDate]
on [dbo].[oeordlin_sql]
after update
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
[Code] .....
If I have a table with 1 or more Nullable fields and I want to make sure that when an INSERT or UPDATE occurs and one or more of these fields are left to NULL either explicitly or implicitly is there I can set these to non-null values without interfering with the INSERT or UPDATE in as far as the other fields in the table?
EXAMPLE:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MYTABLE(
ID NUMERIC(18,0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
LastName VARCHAR(50) NULL,
[Code] ....
If an INSERT looks like any of the following what can I do to change the NULL being assigned to DateAdded to a real date, preferable the value of GetDate() at the time of the insert? I've heard of INSTEAD of Triggers but I'm not trying tto over rise the entire INSERT or update just the on (maybe 2) fields that are being left as null or explicitly set to null. The same would apply for any UPDATE where DateModified is not specified or explicitly set to NULL. I would want to change it so that DateModified is not null on any UPDATE.
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
VALUES('John','Smith',NULL)
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName)
VALUES('John','Smith')
INSERT INTO dbo.MYTABLE( FirstName, LastName, DateAdded)
SELECT FirstName, LastName, NULL
FROM MYOTHERTABLE

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn Access, you have a combo with column designations for example me.combofield.column(x) and you can update another field with those column(x) values.
How do you do it in MS SQL?
I didn't mean "from a 'combo' field'" in SQL(!) I just want to reproduce the equivalent of an Access combo box.

I am trying to update a field in a temptable with the count of items in another table. To illustrate, CustomerID=23 and I want the number of occurences in the temp table. Here's the code which DOESN'T work:
INSERT INTO TempTable
(
CustomerID,
FirstName,
LastName,
DateAdded,
AlbumPicture,
LayoutCount
)
SELECT
Albums.CustomerID,
Customers.FirstName,
Customers.LastName,
DateAdded,
AlbumPicture,
COUNT(*) FROM Layouts WHERE Layout.customerID = Albums.CustomerID
FROM
Albums JOIN
Customers on (Albums.CustomerID=Customers.CustomerID)
Please take a look at the COUNT line. Here I want to count the occurences of a specific customerid in another table and put in into th LayoutCount field.
SQL server reports "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'FROM'". Any ideas how to achieve this?
Many thanks!!

Hello,
I am updating three fields (defined as decimal(18,4) NULL) in
a 1.7 million record table to 0.
This table is also very wide (meaning lot of columns). A simple
query like this -
Update Table1
Set [Decimal Field1] = 0,
[Decimal Field2] = 0,
[Decimal Field3] = 0
is taking forever (1+ hours) to run.
Either I may be doing something stupid here or I am missing
something vital.
Thanks for any help.
Hi,
I'm trying to use the Update command to change a field value. I only know the field name at run-time, how do you write this command. This is what I have done which just sets the variable @cFieldName to the value and not the field within the table.
UPDATE [Atable] SET @cFieldName = @aValue WHERE ([Id] = @Id_1)
Thanks
Hi all,
I have a table with millions of records, table has three fields: case_id,line_no and notedata field, notedata field is 60 chars long, datatype varchar.for each case_id there could be as many as 2000 line_no meaning 2000 notes. I need to compress these notes into one note by case_no, For example case_no 1 could have 2000 lines of notes but my comressed table shoul have only one line containing all 2000 notes in line_no sequence.
my compressed table contains two fields case_no and notetext, notetext is a text field.
here is the script I am trying to use to accomplish the task but it does not append more than 8000 chars in one case, so my notes are chopping of, how should I do this, please let me know of any suggestions..

Here is what Im trying to do if you can understand this.
Update Tbl1
SET tb1ID = B.tbl2_ID
FROM tbl1 AS A JOIN tbl2 AS B
ON A.tbl1Param + A.tbl1Value = B.tbl2Param + A.tbl2value
This is my curren code for updaing ESN number. But this is incorrect.
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ESNTrackingDataSource"
UpdateCommand="UPDATE [ESNTracking] SET [EsnNumber] = @EsnNumber WHERE [EsnTrackingId] = @EsnTrackingId"
OnInit="ESNTrackingDataSource_Init"
OnUpdating="ESNTrackingDataSource_Updating"
OnUpdated="ESNTrackingDataSource_Updated"
runat="server">
<UpdateParameters>
<asp:Parameter Type="String" Name="EsnNumber"></asp:Parameter>
</UpdateParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
this is the Select statment I am trying to use so that I can update the Asset in Assets table and the ESN number in the ESN table. But using ESNId and AssetId.
This is my query that returns the ones are not assigned to and
Asset
SELECT DISTINCT EsnId, EsnNumber
FROM dbo.ESNTracking
WHERE (EsnId NOT IN (SELECT EsnId FROM dbo.EsnAsset))
Hi All,
I will be doing stress test for my app.
Loading thousands of records to the DB through bulk insert.
There's one field NText which I have left NULL because it will be hard to gen dummy flat file to it.
I have another table which has the Ntext Value which i will want to copy and duplicate to the other table.
what is the way to do it?
simply said i want to update a record with NULL value from one table with NText field with the value from another table..
I would like to append information to a varchar field with an update statement, for example the field currently contains a name (Mark) and I would like to add information to name for business purposes, to update it to Markqw215, is this possible to do with an update statement?
Thank you.

ok, so we have a field in one of our db's, a do_not_synch field. this field has a datatype of char...
the following sql statement does not update the field..
update contacts
set do_not_synch = 'Y'
where id=1
and if i open up the table in sql server management studio, and cannot type in and save the value Y...yes i can update other fields in this row...so its not a permissions issue?
is there anything special i should have to do?
Cheers,
Justin
dear sirs,
this is my first contribution at you reputable forum ..
I have a serious problem which is .. I want to create a trigger which runs at the begining of each month .. so I created a table which has a field --> formula --> month(getdate()) i tested it by changing the month in the windows calender and each time i change the month it is updated in the table when I crated a trigger i checked if update(sal_month)
the trigger is as follows
========================================
create trigger tr_update_loan
on salary_month
for update
as
if update(sal_month)
begin
update hr_emp_loan
set payed = payed + one_loan , rest = rest - one_loan
end
=========================================
it returned an error "Column 'sal_month' cannot be used in an IF UPDATE clause because it is a computed column."
I tried to not to use if update() but when I change the date in the calender it is not updated in the other table
can any one help my in this because I'm doing my graduation project
