Need Help In Copying A Temp Tables Contents To A Existing Table
I have a real table with an identity column and a trigger to populate this column. I need to import / massage data for data loads from a different format, so I have a temp table defined that contains only the columns that are represented in the data file so I can bulk insert. I then alter this table to add all the other columns so that it reflects all the columns in the real table. I then populate all the values so that this contains the data I need. I then want to insert into the real table pushing the data from the temp table, however this gives me errors stating that the query returned multiple rows. I specified all the columns in the insert grouping as well as on the select from the temp table. ANY thoughts / comments are appreciated. This is beginning to drive me nuts. Rob

Checking Contents Of Column And Replacing Contents If First Character Is A Letter
Hi All,I have come up against a wall which i cannot get over.I have an sql db where the date column is set as a varchar (i know, should have used datetime but this was done before my time and i've got to work with what is there). The majority of values are in the format dd/mm/yyyy. However, some values contain the word 'various'.I'm attempting to compare the date chosen on a c# .net page with the values in the db and also return all the 'various' values as well.I have accomplished casting the varchar to a datetime and then comparing to the selected date on the .net page. However, it errors when it comes across the 'various' entrant.Is there anyway to carry out a select statement comparing the start_date values in the db to the selected date on the .net page and also pull out all 'various' entrants at the same time without it erroring? i thought about replacing the 'various' to a date like '01/01/2010' so it doesn't stumble over the none recognised format, but am unsure of how to do it.This is how far i have got: casting the varchar column to datetime and comparing. SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE Cast(SUBSTRING(Start_Date,4,2) + '/' + SUBSTRING(Start_Date,1,2) + '/' +SUBSTRING(Start_Date,7,4) as datetime) '" + date + "'"Many thanks in advance!

Move A Table (and Its Contents!) To Another Database
Hi, I am relatively new to this stuff. I am using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express (9.00.1399.00) Can someone tell me the way to get a table and its content to another database (I use two at webhosts4life) Or perhaps a way to export the data of a table so I can do it at a later stage. Is that at all possible with this program or do I have to use the non-express version? Thanks in advance, Lex

How To Save Contents Of Text Box To Database?
Hi, For some reason I can't use the edit, update or insert features on my remote shared server, so I am looking to create a web page that has text boxes on it, that I can enter data into, that will be saved into my database. This is opposed to entering the data directly into the database itself. I want to be able to use a webpage, for simply adding new data, and saving it so that the new data updates and saves over the top of the old data. What are the steps involved in doing this? Any example code for just one text box would be appreciated, I could then extend it to suit my needs. Tia.

Change In Database User Perms When Copying Database
How to maintain Database User Permissions when copying the Database from One SQL Server to another(Either through backups or sp_detach). The reason is the login sid is different in the target server and as a result the database user is not able to map to the login existing in the target server. The only way I can correct this is through dropping and recreating the user's again and assign the permissions, or change the system catalog - sysusers to remap the login to the user in the database. I do not wish to use the sp_addalias as it is available only for backward compatibility. Is there a better way of doing this ?

Copying A Database
Hello,I'm trying to make a copy of a database with this code Code Snippet private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string dbname = @"D:Documents and SettingsBeheerderMijn documentenVisual Studio 2005ProjectsTest12Test12inDebugDatabase1.mdf"; string constr = string.Format("Data Source=(local)\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDBFilename="{0}";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True", dbname); using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(constr)) { connection.Open(); connection.Close(); } File.Copy("Database1.mdf", "Database1Copy.mdf"); } but once the code tries to execute the File.Copy line it comes with an error that the database is currently in use by another program, and also when I'm debugging the program and I try to copy this database with windows explorer it says that the program is currently in use.I've read up some stuff and found that you can stop the SQLServer Service, wich I did but then my program gave an error about not being able to connect to the database, when starting upand also detaching and attaching a database, wich I don't know how to do.So my question is are any of these above methods correct to do, and how do write the code for it? If not is there any other way to copy a database?Thanks in advance,Ruben Pieters

Copying One Database To Another
Hi all, New member here... I've used SQL2000 before (Enterprise Mgr, Query Analyzer), but, now I'm at a company without any DBAs so I'm on my own as far as administration goes which I haven't done before on SQL2000. We have a production database about 100MB in size. As of now there is no development DB. They won't pay for a new server, so I'd like to create a new development database on the same prod server. Then, I want to copy the existing prod database into the new dev DB. I've read up some on DTS, but I wanted to check with the community to see if anyone had other recommendations or if this is the best way to go about it. Also, is this a process that should run at off-hours? Would the copy of production lock the DB up? Thanks a lot...

Copying A Database From One Server To Another
Hi, Does anyone know how to copy a database from one server to another? I want to backup a production database and restore it to a different server (a test server) as a test. I used a sample from the MCDBA study book and all I got was two copies of Northwind on the same server. Any idea what I did wrong? Seems like you should be able to backup on one server and restore on another. Here's the code I used: BACKUP DATABASE Northwind TO DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' RESTORE DATABASE Northwind2 FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' WITH MOVE 'Northwind' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwind.mdf', MOVE 'NorthwindLog1' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwindLog1.ldf' GO Thanks for your help.

Copying Database Offline
I'm going overseas this summer with my laptop and I have to continue working on a project. Unfortunately that laptop only has Windows Vista Home Premium. I can't afford to get the upgrade but am in the position of having to copy a database from the server to my laptop so I can continue working on it. What I need to do is find a way to copy the database over but in the case where the two computers aren't connected over a network. Is this possible? I tried to simply copy the .mdb, but there were permissions errors (of course). Is there a way to do this? It's pretty important that I get it on the laptop one way or another. Thank you!

Copying Entire Database
Hi, Is it possible to copy a database from the existing database. I mean to say creating a duplicating database. Note: I can do it by using "Generate SQL Server Script Wizard" or "Database Publishing Wizard" which saves a some filename.sql and later executing this will create another database by assigning some xyzdatabase name. My main motive is copying a database in a single line script without using this lengthy sciprt. Example FirstDatabase (contains 10 tables 10 stored procedures) SecondDatabase (also contains 10 tables 10 stored procedures) If possible, can you write a script that attach a database from the C:MyTemporaryDatabase Because this i need through programming Visual Basic using SQL Server. I want to create some temporary database. Waiting for your reply. Thanks. Best Regards Kashif Chotu

Copying A Database From Web Host
Hi. I have a client with a database hosted on SQL Server 2005. I don't have a paid version of SQL Server at home so am just using SQL Server Express. I'm getting INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED that I can't use the "copy database" wizard from SQL Server Express. Am I just out of luck on this? I can't use the "copy database" feature since I'm using Express. I can't get the actual files since the database is on a shared server. I know I'm not the only person with this issue; I see people asking the question but I don't see any answers. Is there any way I can copy this database? Thank you very very much, - Andrew Clarke.

Copying SqlServer Database From Web Host
Hi, I have a hard time copying my db (or instance?) from a SQL Server 2000 db which resides at my web host. I have Sql Server 2005 Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express on my computer and, well, there is no "ftp-like" option so I don't have a clue about how to proceed. I've read many posts on the net on this matter but nothing seems to apply to this, in my mind, rather common, configuration. I have receieved Excel docs that should be appended to tables in my db. I have successfully installed DTS (see http://mobiledeveloper.wordpress.com/ for details - it's really simple but takes two hours) so I have a wizard for the actual import from Excel. My plan is now to 1. download/detach/whatever my table/db/part of the web host's db and download it to my computer. Then 2. fill the tables with the data from Excel. And finally, to 3. upload/attach/whatever my local db or table to the web host again. I'm sooo confused, please, please help me out here! Pettrer
