I need to update the data in one table with dat from another.
i have a table called tblclients and a column called intethnicity. I also have a table called tblethnicity. The column in the table intethnicity should be the primary key integer for the corresponding ethnicity. So since most of the clients are caucasian, and the id for caucasian is 4, the intethnicity column should be 4.
Here is the problem:
I have a table of 1300 hundred records and the column intethnicity now has the actual ethnicity in it instead of the corresponding id for the ethnicity. I need a way to update all the records so that the intethnicity column has the id for the corresponding ethnicity, not the actual ethnicity itself.
I know I can go uodate tblcients set intethnicityid =4 where intethnity ='white', but that would take too long.
I need a way to update the column based on the id from the table ethnicity.
I am very new to SQL Server 2005. I have created a package to load data from a flat delimited file to a database table. The initial load has worked. However, in the future, I will have flat files used to update the table. Some of the records will need to be inserted and some will need to update existing rows. I am trying to do this from SSIS. However, I am very lost as to how to do this.
From last 1 week or so, i have been facing very strange problem with my sql server 2005s database which is configured and set on the hosting web server. Right now for managing my sql server 2005 database, i am using an web based Control Panel developed by my hosting company.
Problem i am facing is that, whenever i try to modify (i.e. add new columns) tables in the database, it gives me error saying that,
"There is already an object named 'PK_xxx_Temp' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors. Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider".
where xxx is the table name.
I have done quite a bit research on the problem and have also searched on the net for solution but still the problem persist.
Hi All, I have a Problem while updating one table data from another table's data using sql server 2000. I have 2 tables named TableA(PID,SID,MinForms) , TableB(PID,SID,MinForms) I need to update TableA with TableB's data using a single query that i have including in a stored procedure.
Im trying to create an update statement which references two tables (join) and has a CASE clause attached. Not sure where im going wrong...
Using T-sql!!!
update import set import.gone = from import inner join stat ON stat.id = import.id CASE WHEN stat.A = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.A WHEN stat.B = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.B WHEN stat.C = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.C WHEN stat.D = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.D WHEN stat.E = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.E WHEN stat.F = import.field2 THEN import.gone = sec.F ELSE import.gone = null END
I am trying to update a table in one database with data from a temporary table which i created in the tempdb.
I want to update field1 in the table with the tempfield1 from the #temp_table
The code looks something like this:
Use master UPDATE [dbname].dbo.table SET [dbname].dbo.table.field1 = [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield1 WHERE ( [dbname].dbo.table.field2= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield2 AND [dbname].dbo.table.field3= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield3 AND [dbname].dbo.table.field4= [tempdb].dbo.#temp_table.tempfield4)
I get the following error: Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield2" could not be bound. Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield3" could not be bound. Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 The multi-part identifier "tempdb.dbo.#temp_table.tempfield4" could not be bound.
I want to write trigger code to update values in table1 to table2. ALTER, CREATE, DROP cannot be used in a trigger, I guess.
Tabel1 ID, Name, Asset, Date, Active --------------------------------- 1, A, 10 , 01/08/04 Y 1, B, 16 , 06/08/04 Y 1, C, 12 , 07/08/04 Y 1, D, 13 , 10/08/04 Y 2, E, 10 , 15/08/04 Y 2, F, 11 , 16/08/04 Y 2, Y, 12 , 01/08/04 N 2, G, 15 , 17/08/04 Y 3, H, 13 , 19/08/04 Y 3, I, 15 , 02/08/04 N
As you can see, code must select only active('Y') names in table1 arrange in descending order of asset for each ID and updates(or insert into?)table2. Please help me with code

from mwm.jf_candidates C, mwm.jf_candidates_corrupt X
I know this is probably really obvious but I am trying to insert values into columns into a table if a client exists and I can't for the life of me figure out the syntax. It is something like this:
table A Client_Id Field 1 Field 2
Insert (Field1) into Table_A Select field1 from table_B Where Table_B.Client_Id = Table_A.Client_id
Whenever I run this query Iget the following error message. Can anyone tell me why. I get the same error with or without the "Distinct"
Query:
update Clients set Clients.Siccode = (Select distinct updateSIC.siccode from updateSIC where Clients.accountnumber = updateSIC.accountnumber)
Error Message:
Server: Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression. The statement has been terminated.
Ok this may be really simple but I am totally not seeing this at the moment. I have a table and I need to update this table with records from another table but I need all the rows from both tables and those that match.
Table A ID Data1 A 100 B 200
Table B ID Data2 B 333 C 345
Results should be ID Data1 Data2 A 100 B 200 333 C 345
When I insert data in my table, it don't update untill I click on the "!" execute button. I need my table to update as sonn as I insert information in there. Could some one tell me how to do this. Thanks.

I€™m in the process of rewriting several AbInitio graphs into SSIS and ran into something that I€™m not sure how to handle in SSIS. In AbInitio when you use their update component you can redirect records that aren€™t used in the update command. How would I do the same thing in SSIS?
Right now I€™m using the OLE DB Command component but don€™t see how I can take the records that didn€™t update anything and capture them in a flow out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I’m a complete newbie so forgive this question. If i have 2 tables Table 1 has the columns for NNAME, PHNUM, SSN, DOB, JOB, UPDATED however the Job description is emptyTable2 has the columns for SSN and JOB The question is, how I write an update statement that looks at the SSN in table2 matches it to SSN in table 1 and fills in the job description for that person in table1 and adds yes to the UPDATED field. I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 25,000 records to update.any help would be greatly appreciated.Thank YouAdam
If I have a table with three fields (A, B, C) and 'A' is a primary key, 'B' and 'C' do not have any content and another table with the same number of fields contains the same fields(A, B, C) and the fields do contain data.
I want to populate the first table with the data from the second table where the primary key 'A' is equal.
I have a temp table called #JOB which i know contains data (i can select from it and it shows about 30 rows). The problem is when i am trying to update another table with the contents of the temp table...........query analyser tells me no rows have been updated.
here is the code i am using:
UPDATE JOB SET JOB.JOB_REF = #JOB.JOB_REF FROM #JOB
Does anyone have any ideas where i am going wrong? Cheers in advance.
Is there a way to short cut through the fields in a table when updating them or inserting? ie. I have a table with 78 fields and could grow with time. Is there a way to run the UPDATE or INSERT TO [table](blah....) without listing all the table fields?
I'm having a bit of problem putting together a query that will update records in one table from another table. I've got 2 tables lets call them tblA and tblB.In tblA there is EID(int), QID(int), OID(int) and in tblB OID(int) and QID(int). Also there is an input parameter @EID.What I want to have happen is when someone inputs @EID then tblB gets updated from tblA. To give you a heads up there are no PKs or FKs in either of the tables.If there is an OID in tblA it takes the QID from tblA and places it in tblB where OID from tblA and tblB match.Hopefully this makes sense I thought that I could do something like this:CREATE PROCEDURE test3(@EID int)AS UPDATE tblUsedSET QuestionID = (select QuestionID from tblExamQuestions where ExamID = @EID)WHERE OrderID = (select OrderID from tblExamQuestions where ExamID = @EID)GOBut I get an error that says that there are to many records being returned by the subqueries.

I have to update a table in my sql database with data exported (csv, txt or xls) from another source. The source data and my table have a matching unique field. The source data may contain records I already have and need to updated with any changed data in the source file or new records that need to be inserted into my sql table. I am using SQLExpress, SSMSE, ASP.NET 2.0, and VWD Express. I am relatively new to this environment. Can anyone suggest a solution or where I can find a solution? I could do this when I was building apps in Access. Thanks George
There are 2 different SQL Servers, SQLSvr1 and SQLSvr2(both of them are SQL Server 7.0). On SQLSvr1, I have 3 tables and 1 stored procedure and on SQLSvr2, I have 1 table.
Now, I want to know is it possible for me to update table on SQLSvr2 using a stored procedure on SQLSvr1. Assuming I have all rights and permissions on both servers.
hi i want to update column with new value in a table is it possible to do so in stored procedure . the name of the column will be an input to stored procedure ie at the time of writing the stored procedure i dont know which column the user will be updating
Does anyone know of the SQL statement to add additional comuns to an existing table. I know i can do it through enterprise managaer, but I want to see if I can do it from query analyzer or some script to add columns without having to recreate the table. Or a way to save off the data and recreate the table then placing data back in? I hope that makes sense. I am thinking of this from the sens of doing all updates through source safe
Hi I'm using some DevExpress components in C#, though I think the problem isn't in the DevExpress components. Using sqlConnection, sqlDataAdapter, dataSet, gridControl (a Datagrid) and controlNavigator (to choose insert record, edit record etc.).
When I make my program I can see all the data in the table appearing in the gridControl. Using the controlNavigator I can add records, delete them etc.
I use Microsoft SQL server 2000 (is there maybe a setting in MS SQL that prevents updating??).
I understand that my program loads a local copy of the database and at the end I have to let the program know that the real table in the server now needs to be updated.
I made a button under which I can test some commands. So I make some changes and than press this button.
I tried sqlDataAdapter1.Update(dataset11) and sqlDataAdapter1.Update(DataSet11,"films") (where films is the name of the table) also I tried dataSet11.acceptchanges().
No matter what I try each time when I quit the program and restart the program, my table is empty so no recors are added and the records I added and than changed are missing(PS only adding a record pressing the button and than quiting and restarting the program doesn't help).
Looking in some books I find an Commit statement, but this is used in conjunction with transactions, which I'm not using. The components like sqlDataAdapter do not have the commit command (or I cannot find it).
What do I need to do to effectivly change/update the real table??
I would like a solution where I can input/change data in the datagrid using the controlNavigator and then by adding somewhere some extra code make the changes permanent.
