One To One Relationship
I created 2 tables with one to one relationship. if I add a record in
table A, how does table B record get created? Does SQL do this
automatically because it is one to one relationship? or do I need to
create a trigger? if i need a trigger, how do I get the ID of new
record to create the same ID in table B?
thanks for any help.

How Can I Create A One-to-one Relationship In A SQL Server Management Studio Express Relationship Diagram?
How can I create a one-to-one relationship in a SQL Server Management Studio Express Relationship diagram? For example: I have 2 tables, tbl1 and tbl2. tbl1 has the following columns: id {uniqueidentifier} as PK name {nvarchar(50)} tbl2 has the following columns: id {uniqueidentifier} as PK name {nvarchar(50)} tbl1_id {uniqueidentifier} as FK linked to tbl1.id If I drag and drop the tbl1.id column to tbl2 I end up with a one-to-many relationship. How do I create a one-to-one relationship instead? mradlmaier

Many To One Relationship
Hello I have need to write a query that I can pass in a bunch of filter criteria, and return 1 result....it's just ALL of the criteria must be matched and a row returned: example: Transaction table: id, reference attribute table: attributeid, attribute transactionAttribute: attributeid, transactionid Example dat Attribute table contains: 1 Red, 2 Blue, 3 Green Transaction table contains: 1 one, 2 two, 3 three transactionAttribute contains: (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (2,3), (3,1) If I pass in Red, Blue, Green - I need to be returned "one" only If I pass in Red - I need to be returned "three" only If I pass in Red, Green - nothing should be returned as it doesn't EXACTLY match the filter criteria If anyone's able to help that would be wonderful!

One-One Relationship
Hi,Do you guys know what's wrong with a one-to-one relationship?The reason I want to make it like this is that at the very end of the chain,the set of keys is huge. I want to limit the number of columns to be thekey. i.e. the [company] table has 1 column as the key. The [employee]table will have 2 columns as the key.e,g,If I add a [sale] table to the [company]-[employee] relationship, the thirdtablewill have 3 columns as the key -- "company id", "employee id", and "saleid".(e.g.)I have a company with many employees and computers. But instead of classifyall these, I just want to call all these as an entity. A company is anentity. An employee is just another entity. etc.So, instead of a one-to-many:[company]---*[employee]---*[sale]||*[computer]I make it one-to-one.[entity]---*[entity]If I want to know the name and address of the entity "employee", I will havea 1-to-1 table [employee] to look up the information for this employeeentity.[entity]---*[entity]||[company]||[employee]||[computer]||[sale]--[color=blue]> There is no answer.> There has not been an answer.> There will not be an answer.> That IS the answer!> And I am screwed.> Deadline was due yesterday.>> There is no point to life.> THAT IS THE POINT.> And we are screwed.> We will run out of oil soon.[/color]

Fk Relationship
Hi. I get this error when i try to create a relationship in a db diagram (sql 2005) "'tblActivedir' table saved successfully 'tblClient' table - Unable to create relationship 'FK_tblClient_tblActivedir1'. Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_tblClient_tblActivedir1' on table 'tblClient' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints. Could not create constraint. See previous errors." What i have is 2 tables. 1 named client 1 named activedir In the client table the columns i want to bind with activedirtable are FR1 and DC1 I want to bind them in the ID of the activedir table (both, in different fk relationships) so that they get the id of activedir. Fr1 has an fk relationship with activedir (pk is activedir' id) and DC1 exactly the same in another fk. So i want both columns to comunicate with activedir. If p.e. activedir has 3 elements (a,b,c) when i delete element a then werever FR1 or DC1 have this element(binded to it's id) then the element will also be deleted (id of the element) from both FR1 and DC1 I don't want to set Delete and Update action to none because i want the element changed or deleted from activedir, to do the same on Fr1 or DC1 or both. Any help? Thanks.

ERD 1:1 Relationship
I am trying to create a 1:1 relationship, but not primary key to primary key. In table 1 I have a uniqueidentifier as a primary key. In table 2 I have an int as the primary key and a column that takes the uniqueidentifier from table 1. Everytime I drag and drop the relationship line and link table 1 to table 2 it creates a 1:N relationship: ie. tbl1.primarykey links to tbl2.column2. So I'm not linking primary key to primary key however I still want a 1:1 relationship. How do I do that? Thanks in advance.

FK - PK Relationship Problems
HiI have a FK to PK relationship problem. I have 2 tablesQuickLinks<PK>QuickLinkItems<FK>So what I had this is I made a relationship. I put in the relationship options this. I turned off "enforce FK contraint" and I put for the delete rule "cascade". So I turned off the FK contraint since I don't think with it on the cascade delete would work. So now I tried it out. I launched my website and tried to delete something but no cascading happened. I then went to MS SQL and added some new values in and tried to delete it there(by clicking on the column and hitting delete). No cascadeing happened. What am I doing wrong?

What Relationship To Use Between These Two Table?
Hi I have two tables: 1.) Operator-OperatorID{PK, int, not null}-OperatorName{varchar(100), not null}-Enabled{bit, not null}-PasswordChange{bit, not null}-BirthDate{datetime, not null} 2.) Password-PasswordID{PK, int, not null}-Password{varchar(50), not null}-ExpirationDate{datetime, not null} I'm not sure how to design and layout these two tables. The layout of these two tables is completely flexible as the application has not been deployed. I'm open to any good suggestions. For each Operator I want to stored up to 3 previous passwords plus their current password. The password change field is so that if the operator's password expires or gets reset, they will be forced to enter a new password. This is a simple internal company application, so password encrypting is not necessary. The ExpirationDate indicates the date that the password will expire. Hope to hear from someone soon! Thank you!

How To Add Data Into A PK To FK Relationship?
HiI have 2 tables one is called QuickLinks and another called QuickLinkItemsQuickLinksQuickLinkID<PK> UserID QuickLinkName-------------------------- ----------- ------------------------1 111-111-111-111 QuickLink12 111-111-111-111 QuickLink23 222-222-222-222 QuickLink1 QuickLinkItemsQuickLinkID <FK> CharacterName CharacterImagePath---------------------- ------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- 1 a path11 b path22 d path32 e path43 a path14 b path 2 So thats how I see the data will look like in both of these tables the problem however I don't know how to write this into Ado.net code. Like I have made a PK to FK relationship on QuickLinkID(through the relationship builder thing). I am just not sure how to I do this. For the sake of an example say you have 5 text boxes 2 text boxes for inserting the character names and 2 text boxes for inserting the CharacterImagePath. Then one for the Name of the QuickLink. So how would this be done? Like if it was one table it would be just some Insert commands. Like if this was all one table I would first get the userID from the asp membership table then grab all the values from the textBoxes and insert them where they go to and the QuickLinkID would get filled automatically. The thing that throws me off is the QuickLinkID since it needs to be the same ID as in the QuickLink table. So do I have to first insert some values into the QuickLink table then do a select on it and grab the ID then finally continue with the inserts Into the QuickLinkItems table? Or do I have to join these tables together?Thanks

Relationship To UserId
Hi there everyone, this is my first post so go easy on me :) Basically I am trying to get my database to copy the value in the UserId (unique identifier field) from the aspnet_Users table to a foreign key UserId in a table called userclassset. I have made this field the same datatype and created a relationship between the two. Unfortunately, when I add a user using the ASP.Net configuration tool it does not automatically copy this value into my own custom table. I have noticed it is however automatically copied into the aspnet_Membership table. Any pointers on how to solve this would be great! Thanks :)

Strange FK Relationship - How, And Is It Right?
Hello all,I have a scenario in which there are three tables, A, B and C. A and Bhave PK columns, both are of the same type. C has a FK column, of thesame type as the PK columns of A and B, but the values in it should beeither in the PK column of A or in the PK column of B...I figured out I could do this by creating a check constraint along witha user defined function to make sure the master table (either A or B)has a corresponding row before a row is inserted or updated into C. ButI don't know how to handle deletions from A and B: how to make sure thecorresponding row in C is deleted first. Any help would be greatlyappreciated. Thanks.Now the more important question: C has 6 columns, and all these columnsare common to both A and B. That is, the common columns of A and B havebeen moved to a new table C. Apart from this, there is no purpose ormeaning to having the table C; if it were not for C, A and B would'vehad 6 additional columns. I know such factoring is common in the OOworld, but is it right in the RDBMS world? What else should've beendone? Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks a lot in advance.- Ramesh
