When Access date/time data is transformed to SQL7, it seems to work fine as long as the data contains date information. But, if the data is time only, there is the 2-day diff. coming out of Access.
For date/time data in Access, day 0 is 12/30/1899--for SQL7 it is 1/1/1900.
So, it appears that DTS first converts Access date/time data to a date formatted string and then sends to SQL. This will only be a problem for times....8:00 AM is stored to SQL as 8:00 AM on 12/30/1899, not 1/1/1900. If I try to calculate hours or minutes from midnight (date/time 0) I get a negative number.
Has anyone else encountered this? I guess my choice is to modify DTS to correct for the dates or to run an update once the data is moved.
I would like to create a MSAccess97 front end for some SQL7 data. I created an odbc source system dsn for the server holding the SQL7 data. When I try to add a table to my Access97 database by linking it to a SQL7 table, the only choices presented me are tables in the default database for SQL7 on my server. How do I link to tables in another database on that server? Thanks.
I`m trying out SQLServer7, have installed it on my workstation, have been able to open access97 and link to sql7 tables I created. Want another user to use access97 to set up her own database and link to my sql7 tables. Do I need to install anything from the sql7 beta disk on her desktop? Right now she can`t link a sql7 table to her access97 db. Thanks.
Hi! Has anyone experienced this problem? Certain queries that work fine in SQL 6.5 and Oracle return inconsistent / inaccurate results in SQL 7 (with SP1). These queries include an IN clause with a range of values. For example, the following query: SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD FROM table WHERE columnD = 'I' AND columnA IN (1,2,3,11,19) go
returns a different result than this query: SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD FROM table WHERE columnD = 'I' AND columnA IN (1,3,11,2,19) go
The only way we have stumbled upon to get accurate results consistently is to order the range values from largest to smallest: AND columnA IN (19,11,3,2,1)
Have not seen this documented anywhere. We are in the process of re-ordering these ranges in our code, but I welcome any ideas or comments... Thanks!
I have migrated a database from Access to SQL. Promlem is that I cannot edit the records in the now linked tables. We are still using the Access front end. Why can't we edit the records?
Hi. Silly question time please. I'm a newbie when it comes to SQL7. I'm trying to connect via Access 97 VBA to a SQL server table. I can't seem to get it working at a basic level. Has anyone got the basic syntax or sample piece of VBA code to connect to a SQL server. I've been searching everywhere to no avail so far. Dave.
I have an Access 97 database that I would like to "mirror" in my SQL server 2000 database.
Basically I would like SQL server to keep a current copy of an Access 97 database table which exists on remote machine on our network. Any time there is a change made to the Access table, I would like the SQL server to be updated automatically.
Is this something that is possible to do with replication/synchronization, or do I have to push the data up with another app?
The website i'm building is using an access97 database. Actually the database isn't very big but i hope it will become. So i would like to convert it to SQL 7.0 which seems to be more powerfull. Is there a software which can do it automatically? What are the modifications needed by ODBC ?
I am trying to link a table from a MS SQL database into access97 thru ODBC. When I do this, I get the message "Can't define field more than once." When I look at the table in SQL, there are no duplicate field names, however, when I bring the table in to do a Crystal Report, I see there are 2 fields that have duplicate field names 6 times. (Evidently Crystal doesn't care about this as Access does.) Any clues on what is happening?
We have an Access97 database with 122 tables. I try to use import and export wizard to import the data from access into SQL 2005 database. I find an interesting problem. When select all tables, the wizard give following errors:
Pre-execute (Error) Messages Error 0xc0202009: {DBD1EAB5-7865-4B89-A7BB-DDC8507D8119}: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Unspecified error". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc020801c: Data Flow Task: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "SourceConnectionOLEDB" failed with error code 0xC0202009. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc004701a: Data Flow Task: component "Source 64 - PlanClasses" (5206) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020801C. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
But if I divide importing as 2 steps: 1. import all tables before PlanClasses, it works. 2. import all tables after PlanClasses including PlanClasses, it works.
If I just import PlanClasses itself, it works, but I can not import all tables at once. Interesting thing is if I just unselect PlanClasses, it will have same error at the class right after PlanClasses. Is there size limitation when doing import at once?
I recently rewrote an old ACCESS 97 application to work with MSSQL 7.
The program works fine until I use a form whiche opens several linked tables at the same time. When closing the Form I get (At unpredictable moments) an ODBC SQL SERVER DRIVER update failure error message.
All rights are set on the tables for Public and even then i keep getting this error at very odd moments. I also had a look in Access at the ODBC refresh rate which is set at 10sec , OLEDB refreshrate 10 sec, and refresh is set at 5sec.
I tried different combinations of timeout settings and even renewing the MDAC to version 2.7. Nothing helps.
Can anyone give me a tip as to look for the possible source of the error and how to fix it? Thanks! Vincent JS
I have an application written in Access 97 that connects to a SQL2000backend. One field is a description field that is a data type NTEXT in theSQL database. In my access form, I can not enter more than 255 characters.Before I converted the backend to SQL, the description field was a memofield in Access.What do I need to do to make it so I can enter more text into this field?
The above script works OK on a one-off basis but....
Basically, organisation_number_2 (i.e. 19219) always stays the same. However, I need to update organisation_number_1 several times (i.e. 2311 will then change to 2312, 2313, 2314 etc.).
Rather than pasting the script several hundred times and changing the organisation_number_1 value each time, is there a quick way to encompass all the organisation_number_1 values in one go?
I've tried e.g. VALUES (2311,2312), 19219, 'BRAN' etc. but this doesn't seem to work.
I have a table called WorkItem. It models a chunk of work done duringa working day.It has two columns that I'm interested in:Start (smalldatetime) - the TIME the work block is begunDuration (int) - the duration in minutes of the work block.In another table called OvertimeRates I have information about ratemultipliers and a column that tells me the TIME that the ratemultiplier kicks in.e.g.OTRateBegins (smalldatetime)In terms of calculating whether a particular work block starts afterthe OTRateBegins, I could (I presume) do something like:If CONVERT(smalldatetime, Start, 108) > CONVERT(smalldatetime,OTRateBegins, 108)However, would I be better off using DATEPART functions to get the hourand minute parts of both the Start and OTRateBegins, and using theminstead? For some reason, (probably paranoia!), I am suspicious of theCONVERT function.Apologies for not posting DDL, but I felt that the situation didn'treally warrant it.ThanksEdward
And while querying the linked server from the query analyzer using the following select command
SELECT * FROM REMOTE_OFFICE.RealEstate_Office1.dbo.E_GOV_RE_OK
I got the following error
Server: Msg 7312, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Invalid use of schema and/or catalog for OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'. A four-part name was supplied, but the provider does not expose the necessary interfaces to use a catalog and/or schema. OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error].
Hello, I have an issue where I need to format the way my times are stored in my table to the way I can compare those times with the current time given by: select right(convert(varchar,getdate(),100),7) this provides a result like: 2:10PM But my times are stored like: 2:10 P.M. so, Im thinking i need to format the saved time in order to compare it to the current time so I can do the following select: select * where startTime > ( select right(convert(varchar,getdate(),100),7) )
I AM HAVING A TABLE WHICH HAS INCREMENTAL COLUMNS,WHERE COLUMNS GETS ADDED EVERY MONTH TO THE TABLE AND THE TABLE THEN CONTAINS PREVIOUS MONTH AND PRESENT MONTH DATA ABOUT CUSTOMERS ,DETAILS AND TRANSACTIONS. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS DATA IS ,IF THE CUSTOMER IS NEW ,THEN IN PREVIOUS MONTHS HIS INFORMATION IS NULL,WHICH HAVE TO BE CODED HAS "NOT PRESENT".
NOW, HOW DO WE CONVERT ALL THE PREVIOUS COLUMNS FOR A PARTICULAR CUSTOMER HAS NULL AT THE SAME TIME ?.
HERE IS HOW THE PROC WRITTENED FOR IT GOES :-
DROP PROCEDURE DE_NAT CREATE PROCEDURE DE_NAT AS BEGIN DECLARE @MONMIN1 NVARCHAR(100),MON NVARCHAR(100),@YEAR NVARCHAR(100) , @MONYEAR NVARCHAR(100) SET @MONMIN1 = DATENAME((MONTH),DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GETDATE())) SET @MON = MONTH(GETDATE()) SET @YEAR = YEAR(GETDATE()) SET @MONYEAR = @MON + @YEAR
EXEC('select A.CUSTOMERS,B.*,CAST(A.RFM_40D AS FLOAT) AS R40 INTO TSD_' + @MONYEAR + ' from TSD_20 A LEFT OUTER JOIN SD20 ' + @MONMIN1 + ' B ON A.CUSTOMERS = B.CUSTOMER') END
THIS PROC JUST ADDS THE PRESENT MONTHS DATA TILL LAST MONTHS DATA.
BUT IF A CUSTOMER IS NEW, THEN HOW DO I REPLACE THE NULL VALUES FOR THE PREVIOUS DATA TO 'NOT PRESENT'
FOR EG :- IF THERE IS A NEW CUSTOMER ,HOW DO WE CHANGE :-
NOW, AS YOU CAN SEE, THAT FOR CUSTOMERS = '101023'. THE COLUMN DFGHHGFD IS, THIS MONTHS DATA , I WANT TO CHANGE ALL NULL VALUES PRESIDING IT AS "INACTIVE"
CAN I CHANGE , ALL COLUMNS FROM NULL TO "INACTIVE" , AT THE SAME TIME. ?
AS NEXT MONTH, AGAIN THE COLUMNS IS GONNA INCREASE WHICH WILL AGAIN CAUSE A PROBLEM .
PLS TELL ME A METHOD , SO THAT I CAN DO THE NEEDFUL.
Here is the sample data nType dCDServerTime 02006-05-12 03:50:46.770 12006-05-12 04:00:59.153 962006-05-12 04:01:23.827 962006-05-12 04:16:01.297 142006-05-15 05:02:46.857 202006-06-23 03:23:36.970
I am trying to find the time diff between dCDServerTime of the "first" ntype = 1 and the "first" ntype = 96. There can be any number of rows with 1 and 96 but rows with 1 always come before those with 96.
I tried by putting a subset of the above result into a table variable but don't seem to get ahead without declaring more variables.
declare @t table (Type int, ServerTime datetime) insert into @t select top 1 nType,dCDServerTime from tblEvent where nGlobalCaseID = 11901643 and nType = 1 UNION select top 1 nType,dCDServerTime from tblEvent where nGlobalCaseID = 11901643 and nType = 96 select * from @t
Hi - I am a bit of an amatuer, but I am trying to use the EMS data Pump to get all of the data out of an Interbase 6 DB into an MSDE DB. I have managed to instal an Interbase ODBC driver, and I ca connect to it and then automatically create the tables in my MSDE DB, but I get an error stating that there cannot be multiple Timestamp columns in the MSDE databse. Is this true ?
How can I copy a SQL 7 database from one server to another? Please tell me all the ways because I've tried the obvious and it doesn't work. (backup and restore - won't go from one server to another, DTS transfer object Wizard - does a whole pile of errors and doesn't do stored proceedures and trigures). Thanks for help in advance. Also, what is the email address to post to the listserv and where is the FAQ for SQL7? Most of my listserv's tell you where to post right at the bottom of the digest I get - any chance you guys would do that with this list? Thanks again.
hi all, In sql server 2005 i had created 2 tables,table 1 and table 2. Here is the detail of the table. table 1: tid--> int,identity,primary key tname-->varchar(200) table 2: sid-->int,identity,primary key tid-->fk (this tid is set as foreign key for the tid in table1) now when i'm inserting values into tname i have to insert the value of tid from table 1 into the tid of table 2 both at the same time. any one know how this is possible? if so please send me the code.. pls help me.. thanks swapna
As a DBA, I am working on a project where an ETL process(SSIS) takes a long time to aggregate and process the raw data.
I figured out few things where the package selects the data from my biggest 200 GB unpartitioned table which has a datekey column but the package converts its each row to an integer value leading to massive scans and high CPU.
Example: the package passed two values 20140714 and 4 which means it wants to grab data from my biggest table which belongs between 20140714 04:00:00 and 20140714 05:00:00.
It leads to massive implicit conversions and I am trying to change this.
To minimize the number of changes, what I am trying to do is to convert 20140714 and 4 to a datetime format variable.
Select Convert(DATETIME, LEFT(20170714, 8)) which gives me a date value but I am stuck at appending time(HH:00:00) to it.
As the Microsoft Time Series algorithm implementation is based upon the Autoregressive Tree approach described in:
C. Meek, D. M. Chickering, D. Heckerman. Autoregressive Tree Models for Time-Series Analysis. In Proc. 2nd Intl. SIAM Conf. on Data Mining, 2002 (SDM-02). SIAM, pp. 229 €“ 244. http://www.siam.org/meetings/sdm02/proceedings/sdm02-14.pdf.
The model estimated is refererred to as an instance of "... autoregressive tree models of length p, denoted ART(p). An ART(p) model is an ART model in which each leaf node of the decision tree contains an AR(p) model, and the split variables for the decision tree are chosen from among the previous p variables in the time series..." (see the last paragraph of p. 2 of the paper).
What is the value of "p" used in the Microsoft Time Series implementation -- specifically, how many previous time series variables are used in estimating the model? It doesn't appear that this value can be specified in the algorithm parameters -- is that correct?
Hi All, I have developed few charts - line graphs - and have checked the Numeric or time-scale values on the X-Axis. Now, when the graphs come out, they appear to have two datasets. For example, if the X axis has values from 1st march to 14th March, then there will be a line from 1st March to 14th March, but additionally there will be another one, pointing to different datapoint, and again starts from 1st March and ends at 14th March. Whereas I think it is because of the Numeric or time-scale values selection, but I am not sure. Also, is there a particular way to interpret such graphs??
Thanks a lot, I would have loved to give a picture, but I think I cannot give it.. I did not find an option..
I am trying to pull the records which are being affected i.e, comparing the values and if not same then populating the record.
I am using the below condition in where clause however i am getting runt time error as "Conversion failure when converting date and/or time from character string"
Condition in Where clause:
cast(isNull(tab1.Col1,'') as datetime) <> cast(isNull(tab2.col1,'') as datetime)Â
