What Is A Good Tool For Modeling A SQL Server 2005 Database?

Nov 20, 2006

Hello,

I need a tool that will let me model a SQL Server 2005 database and then generate the tables, constraints, etc. from the model. I've never used a modeling tool so my knowledge is quite limited. I don't need to model or reverse engineer an application - my sole concern is on the SQL Server database side. I'm not concerned if the tool integrates with Visual Studio. And, of course, price is one consideration.

Are there any good tools that I should look at?

Thanks,

SQL Server 2012 :: Merging Two Tables Using Effective Start And Effective End Date Fields

Sep 10, 2015

I have two tables. Status and Fourhistory tables.Status table contains a status column with effectivestart and end dates as history. This column is having history at month level.

Fourhistory table maintains 4 columns as part of history with the use of effectivestart and end dates. Here history capturing is at day level.

Desired Result: I want to merge the status column into FourHistory table.Below i have given some possible sample scenarios which i face and the third table contains the expected ouput.how to achieve this in T-SQL query.

create table dbo.#Status(

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Finding Last Cost By Article And Compare With Invoice Line Cost?

May 28, 2015

I need to build TSQL query to return the Last unit Cost from my table of movement of goods SL (on CTE) but the MAX(Datalc) must be Less or Equal to my HeaderInvoice.

This is my script:

With MaxDates as (
SELECT ref,
MAX(epcpond)[Unitcostprice],
MAX(datalc) MaxDate
FROM sl

[code]....

the problem I have right now is that the Unitcostprice of my table of goods movements has a top date greather than the date of my bill.

Example:

invoice date : 29.01.2015 unitcost on invoice line = 13,599722
Maxdate (CTE) : 19.03.2015 unitCost from my table of movement of goods = 14,075

That ´s not correct because the MAxdates > invoice date and the unitCost of 14,075 is the cost on 19.03.2015 and not just before my invoice date.

SQL 2012 :: Cost Threshold For Parallelism - Subtree Cost

If so, I've read the cost threshold is measured in minutes but is the subtree cost measured in something else, the mysterious cost number? And if so, how are the two compared?

Triggers - Possible To Specify Effective Timeframe?

Oct 6, 2006

My gut tells me this can't be done quite the way I'm hoping, but maybe someone has a little insight...

Is it possible to specify a specific timeframe for which triggers should be effective? I have some make-shift replication tasks which are currently done via pure insert/update queries and various times throughout the day. In the am our "target" table is completely wiped and repopulated from our "source" table which resides on a different server.

I'm hoping to setup update triggers throughout the day to catch changes to our "source" table. These triggers should only be active for a six-hour period throughout the day. Unfortunately true replication isn't an option here.

I can think of a couple ways to take care of this such as checking GETDATE() from the trigger itself and deciding whether or not to do anything, or perhaps scheduling a job to enable and disable triggers at the appropriate time. Is there a way to setup such a schedule for the trigger itself?

Effective Permission For A Group

Feb 8, 2007

When I click on the properties of a 2005 sql server database and thenpermissions.If I select a group and then effective permission, I got an error,saying that "cannot execute as the principal server because the 'xxxgroup' does not exist, this type of principal cannot be impersonated,or you do not have permission (Microsoft SQL Server; Error: 15406)"I guess the error is valid, since the group does not exist in thedatabase as a user. If so, how do I get the effective permissions of agroup?

Dear SQL,

since I create some multi-language table - I want to allow finding unicode text

It will have a string that can include some words in different languages, so that I can find by using:

Working With Single Effective Date

May 20, 2008

I have a table with a single effective date, rather than both a start and stop date. I have to be able to match up this table to another one with service information in it and am not sure how to get the correct record selected.

So in table one I have a personID, effective date, and lots of other fields. There are also multiple records for each personID, so say personID 1 has records with effective dates of 1/1/2007, 6/1/2007, and 1/1/2008.

Table two has personID, Service Date, and lots of other fields.

So if I am looking to match up the effective row from table one to a record in table two with a service date of 8/1/2007, how do I get the db to locate and return the record with an effective date of 6/1/2007, and only this record?

Most Effective Method Of Managing The Data?

Mar 2, 2004

I have a large SQL Database im building, in the database there is a table for each user with certain things listed. One problem is, sometimes in a few collums, there will be like 100things listed, instead of one line.


For Example:

Products in that some users will have 1 product like "apples" but others will have many more products.

What is the most effective way of listing the data? Create new tables? Seperate the products with comma's or spaces?


How do I do it, and keep the overall db size smaller?

Thanks

As our customers demand that we tighten our IT security in the company,I've been asked to prepare a report quarterly showing, for each user inActive directory, what his effective permissions are for every table inevery database that he has permission for on our SQL Server 2000 server. Isearched a bit for a tool to do this, but all I found was the PERMISSIONS()function for showing effective permissions of the current user. Is thereany way to do it for an arbitrary user, without logging in as them?

Why Is Param Query Effective Against SQL Injection?

Reading about SQL Injection attacks I came across this example:

SSN="172-32-9999';DROP DATABASE pubs --"
SqlQuery = "SELECT au_lname, au_fname FROM authors WHERE au_id = '" + SSN + "'"

One remedy given was a parameterized query as follows:

Dim cmd As new SqlCommand("SELECT au_lname, au_fname FROM authors WHERE au_id = @au_id")
Dim param = new SqlParameter("au_id", SqlDbType.VarChar)
param.Value = SSN
cmd.Parameters.Add(param)

Why does this parameter which is defined as a varchar solve the problem? It's defined as a varchar, basically a string. Why is the result different in the solution? How is the query string in the second sample different from the one in the first? A simple question I know, but I've been wondering.

Thanks

Server Properties - Effective Permissions

Jun 10, 2007

In SSMSE, if I open Server Properties and then Permissions, I can highlight a user or user group and click the 'Effective Permissions' button.



For entries like 'BUILTINUsers' or 'BUILTINAdminsitrators' I get the following error message. I don't understand what it's telling me - can anyone explain?



TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
------------------------------

Cannot show requested dialog.

------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)

------------------------------

Cannot execute as the server principal because the principal "BUILTINUsers" does not exist, this type of principal cannot be impersonated, or you do not have permission. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15406)



Notes: as fara as I know, BUILTINUsers does exist, and I do have permission.

Lookup Transformation Using Effective Dates

Jul 13, 2006

Hi,

I need to perform a lookup based on a business key and a date in the source that must be between an effective from and effective to date in the reference table. I've been able to achieve this by updating the SQL caching command on the advanced tab but the performance is very slow. I have 6 lookups of this type in the data flow with a source SQL statement that returns approx 1 million rows and this package takes over 90 minutes to run.

The caching SQL command now looks like this

select * from
(select * from [ReferenceTable]) as refTable
where [refTable].[Key] = ? and ? BETWEEN [refTable].[StartDate] AND [refTable].[EndDate]

and I've set up the parameters so that the business key is the first parameter and the source date is the second.

I have another lookup in the flow that does a straight equality comparison using 2 columns and the Progress tab shows that this lookup is cached (even though I haven't enabled it on the Advanced tab of the transformation editor) but none of the other lookups (using the date) appear to be cached, even though I have enabled them to be.

Can anyone suggest how I can improve the performance?

Thanks.
