Single Table Restoration
It appears that in SQL 2000 restoring a single table is a bit more tedious and less user friendly as in earlier versions (6.5). Can anyone explain in a nutshell the easiest/quickest way to restore a single table from a backup?
Thanks,
Christine

Trying To Return A Single Record For Each Client From Child Table Based Upon A Field Of Date Type In Child Table
I have table "Clients" who have associated records in table "Mailings" I want to populate a gridview using a single query that grabs all the info I need so that I may utilize the gridview's built in sorting. I'm trying to return records containing the next upcoming mailing for each client. The closest I can get is below: I'm using GROUP BY because it allows me to return a single record for each client and the MIN part allows me to return the associated record in the mailings table for each client that contains the next upcoming 'send_date' SELECT MIN(dbo.tbl_clients.client_last_name) AS exp_last_name, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.send_date) AS exp_send_date, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id) AS exp_user_id, dbo.tbl_clients.client_id, MIN(dbo.tbl_mailings.mailing_id) AS exp_mailing_idFROM dbo.tbl_clients INNER JOIN dbo.tbl_mailings ON dbo.tbl_clients.client_id = dbo.tbl_mailings.client_idWHERE (dbo.tbl_mailings.user_id = 1000)GROUP BY dbo.tbl_clients.client_id The user_id set at 1000 part is what makes it rightly pull in all clients for a particular user. Problem is, by using the GROUP BY statement I'm just getting the lowest 'mailing_id' number and NOT the actual entry associated with mailing item I want to return. Same goes for the last_name field. Perhaps I need to have a subquery within my WHERE clause?Or am I barking up the wrong tree entirely..

BCP A Single Table
I've managed to BCP in a single table form a backup DAT file into a database, but it took WAY to long (1 hour+ on a meaty server) and I can't understand why. The table only had a few rows of data and only had a few small dependancy tables. The table has a primary key, hence an index so the BCP becomes a logged operation but it still should not take this long. Here is the BCP command line that I ran :- bcp <dbname>.dbo.<tablename> in <DAT filename> /U sa /P /S <server> /m 1 /n Could anyone please shed some light on this. Is there anyway of 'fast' bcp'ing this table into the database overwriting the existing one. Failing that, is there any way of scripting the transfer of a table from one server to another. Many thanks. Dave

Restoration --URGERNT --Please Help
Please excuse my lack of understanding as I am not a SQL DBA. I have just received a database backup: "myDB_20005034400.bak" and have been asked to put a copy on my server. I am told that this was made from the Enterprise Manager's DB Maintenance Utility. The backup Administrator has left the company with the server in a crashed condition. How can I find out what "myDB_20005034400.bak" pertains to? (No msdb, etc. available). I am RESTORING TO A NEW SERVER. MAIN: HOW DO I RESTORE THIS FILE TO A NEW DATABASE; ie TestDB (TestDB.mdf; TestDB.ldf)? Thanks a trillion. Shelly

SQL 2005 Restoration
Hello all, I operate a website which runs on Server 2003 and SQL 2005 Express. Unfortunately my server experienced a hard drive failure, however fortunately I have a full backup using 2003's NT Backup. My new server is slightly different specification wise to my last server - but my question is, what are my options for restoring the database and how would I go about this? I do administor 2003 servers, but I'm not a database administrator. My initial thoughts are to update Windows and its components (such as IE) and SQL 2005 to the same equivalent versions, and to perform a full restore, but what if it breaks Windows? My second thought is to somehow extract the database from my backup file, but then I wouldn't know where to start how to re-import everything. All comments would be welcome! Many thanks, Mike

Deadlock On Single Table
We have one user who enters a transaction and then does a single rowupdate (updates all columns but only one is changing - this is due tothe way our sql is generated in the application), at this pointanother user enter a transaction and tries to update the same row (heunderstandably has to sit and wait while he is blocked by the originaluser). The original user then updates the same row again – at thispoint the second user is chosen as a deadlock victim and killed. If Itry and recreate this with any other tables(or pubs) I get my expectedbehaviour of the original user just doing 2 successful updates and thesecond user then completing his update once the original user haseither committed his changes or rolled back. The query plan indicatesthat a drop and insert of the row is happening (this is not the casewith any other tables where we get our expected behaviour). This onlyhappens when the index is clustered - if we use a non-clustered indexit does not occur.Is this expected behaviour? it seems dangerous to me as the firstuser has not commited or rolled back his updates. It was onlyhighlighted by a fault in our application that caused the secondupdate to be executed.I have some thoughts about it being something to do with a row lockbeing relased due to a delete / insest of the row in the second update(we see this in the execution plan).....Any help much appreciated as I am struggling to get my head round howthe second user was ever able to get hold of the resource.

Intersection On A Single Table
Hi all !

I would like to get a list of all the rows that have the same col1 and col2 BUT different col3 value. The result should return col1=001 col2=A but NOT col1=001 col2=B. I tried a lot of queries with EXISTS, HAVING, etc... but nothing seems to work. Anyone have an idea how I can do it ?

Single Table Restore
Hi! This morning, I needed to restore 1 table to a database because it had accidentally been deleted (don't ask). Each time I tried to restore the single table, I would select TOOLS| DATABASE BACKUP/RESTORE| RESTORE tab from Enterprise Manager, then I select SINGLE TABLE, but am only given the existing table names as choices to restore. This happens when I select to restore 'FROM DEVICE' as well. Am I doing something wrong or is this how MS SQL6.5 is supposed to work? Am I only able to restore a corrupt table and not a missing table? I ended up restoring the entire database... Thanks for your help! Toni Eibner

Single Table Load
I thought I had posted this question already, but didn't see it in the list. I apologize if this is a repost. I am running SQL Server 6.5 SP 4. I am attempting to load a single table from backup, but continually get the error about schemas not matching. Interestingly, it comes back with a status 4, and not the status 3 indicating a mismatch on Ansi_Padding. The statement I am using is load table demhist from internal_tape with file=5,nounload I have tried creating the table from scratch and using select * into... I have tried both above with both settings of Ansi Padding. The table I am trying to load contaings char columns which allow nulls. I have experimented with loading 2 other tables. One of the other tables loads and one doesn't. The one which does not load also has char columns which allow nulls, while the one that does load does not have char columns which allow nulls. Is it a known problem or limitation on the table load that it cannot reload tables that contain char columns which allow nulls?

Space Required For DB Restoration
Hi Folks: This seems like a pretty straightforward question, but since I've been trying to find this in BOL and not having any luck, I thought I'd ask some folks more experienced than I. How much room do I need on a SQL box to restore a 6.45 gig database? (it's going from a huge machine to a backup tape, then from the backup tape to a much smaller machine for testing an app, and we're trying to find out what we need to do to make it all work out.) I'm assuming that I would need significantly more than the 6 gigs of the db for the work of actually doing the restore, but can't find out how much more... Any ideas would be most appreciated. Many thanks in advance, Tom

Restoration Terminating Abnormally
Hi, This is the problem which we face now and then. There is an automated job that run everyday night to restore the Database for reporting purposes. Before running that job an NT Task Schedular stop starts the sql server. This is to make sure that all the connections are closed. Nobody uses it at Night. But some times the job fails with bellow error message... "Database in use. The system administrator must have exclusive use of the database to run the restore operation. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3101) Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013) Associated statement is not prepared [SQLSTATE HY007] (Error 0). The step failed." Should I make the DB option set to single user mode. I don't think that is the problem.. because it runs fine most of the time..but sometime it fails. Please help.. Thanks in advance :-) Shyam.

Users And Login Restoration
SQL Server 7 or 2000. I restore a database on a different server from a device file. This database has a user defined for it. In this case, 'privuser' is the name. No login has been defined. I can add the privuser login but cannot grant db access because privuser already exists in the db. I cannot drop 'privuser' because the user owns all the user objects in the db. How can I make the privuser login I create access the db using the privuser username in the db? Would having the login created before restoring the db as a new db work?

How To Check If A Single Value Exists In A Table
What’s the easiest way to check if a single value exists in a table column? I’m building a simple login page, and I want to get the username and check if it exists in my Users table. Here’s my SQL: SELECT UserID FROM UsersWHERE UserID = "admin" Could someone give me code to check for “admin” in my UserID column? Here’s some code I tried, using my SqlDataSource, but it returns an error “Could not load type 'System.Data.OleDb'” protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { // Retreive the results from the SqlDataSource as a DataReader OleDbDataReader reader = (OleDbDataReader) SqlDataSource1.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty); // Read in the value if (reader.Read()) { } // Close the reader reader.Close(); } I don’t have to use the SqlDataSource, but originally thought it might be easier. I know how to use SqlDataSource to fill a whole GridView but this is different.

Select 1 Row From Each Group In A Single Table
Hello everyone, I've got a bit of an SQL mystery that I'm not sure how to solve. For some reason I just cant get my head around it. Here's the scenario: Table A: _____________ BidID - Int identity AuctionID - int BiderName - varchar(50) bidAmount - money ______________________ Now obviously each Bid will have a Unique ID using BidID but the other rows will contain multiple bids per user, on many different items possibly. BidID AuctionID BiderName BidAmount 1 4005 joeblow 100.00 2 4005 janedoe 101.00 3 4005 joeblow 107.00 4 4006 joeblow 100.00 5 4006 janedoe 105.00 6 4006 joeblow 106.00 I need to find out which Auctions JoeBlow is bidding on, but I dont need a table with Rows for every single one of his bids, just a distinct auctionID for his top bid so in this case the only thing returned would be 3 4005 joeblow 107.00 6 4006 joeblow 106.00 Any clues? I've been through sub querys, and stored procedures, and I cant get anything to work quite right. Thanks in advance for your help.
