Hi All,
I am new to this group and this is my first doubt i am facing at
present.
I am doing data migration. In this sequence i need to alter few views.
Alter in the sense, inside the existing query of view i want to include
one more column.
I want to do it inside one single script. If i run the script all views
should get updated.
Any help on this will be greatful.
my mail id is Join Bytes!.
Thanks in advance
I had given one of our developers create view permissions, but he wants to also modify views that are not owned by him, they are owned by dbo.
I ran a profiler trace and determined that when he tries to modify a view using query designer in SQLem or right clicks in SQLem on the view and goes to properties, it is performing a ALTER VIEW. It does the same for dbo in a trace (an ALTER View). He gets a call failed and a permission error that he doesn't have create view permissions, object is owned by dbo, using both methods.
If it is doing an alter view how can I set permissions for that and why does it give a create view error when its really doing an alter view? Very confusing.
I have granted a developer the alter view permissions on some views in our production server which now allow him to open the view for modification. When he tries to save his changes he gets an error that he doesn't have create view permission. If seen this behavior before when you modify a table, does SQL Server 7.0 actually drop and recreate the object? If so, would he then need create permissions on views also?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHey Folks,
I have a View that I'm using to power a Crystal Report. I want to include an extra column that will be a string containing all the values from a single column of another table, seperated by comma.
So for example:
Project | Staff
----------------------
TestProject1 | "Jonathan, Greg, Joe"
Is this possible? Where do I do it? From the SQL Server end or in the report?
Hi,
I am using SQL 2000( Version: 8.00.000)
I want to ask can I add View in the stored procedure like the following:
Create Procedure sp_createTblLogReasonColorView
@m int,
@y int
AS
BEGIN
ALTER View vw_tblLogReasonColor
AS
Select * From tblLogReasonColor where Year(n_Delivery_Date) = @y AND Month(n_Delivery_Date) = @m
END
Thanks for you reply.
prerequisites:
MSSQL 2005 64bit as publisher (transactional replication)
MSSQL 2000 32 bit as subscriber (pull, read-only)
All objects are set to replicate except foreign keys and defaults.
There is a linked server DW on both the publisher and the subscriber that both can access (sa and user logins mapped)
The snapshot generation and loading is fine.
but then I issue this statement at the publisher:
ALTER VIEW [dbo].[v_Test] as
select * from DW.DW_DB.dbo.v_Test
but it fails to replicate at the subscriber with the message:
Category:COMMANDSource: Failed CommandNumber: Message: ALTER VIEW [dbo].[v_Test] asselect * from DW.DW_DB.dbo.v_TestCategoryQLSERVERSource: SubscriberNumber: 7399Message: OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' reported an error.
I tried the command on the Subcriber via Query Analyzer and it works.
What gives?
All suggestions are welcome!
I would like to alter view to add columns. My base table is populated by application and the base table name is always change. Is there any way to add some extra columns to this view.
One way is to create a sp to add columns and use the view inside the sp. But I would like to know is there any way to alter the view.
I have a VIEW which is dynamically generated through complex dynamic SQL. Unfortunately the dynamic SQL uses "Select * from table" to select the columns because the programmer did that to reduce the amount of code in the dynamic SQL string as the code can't be debugged if it's too long.
Therefore, I have a VIEW with columns in it I don't need, and want to remove them from the view - I need to remove all columns with column names matching the syntax '%1%_2' .
The view is called TEMP_EXPORT_1
I can either use the code below to return a list of columns that I want removed:
select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name like '%1%_2'
Or I can use the code below to return the list of columns that I want to keep:
select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name not like '%1%_2'
Now how would I go about altering TEMP_EXPORT_1 view so that it no longer has these columns? I know views don't have a drop statement...
Therefore I tried the following but I'm not sure of the syntax:
ALTER VIEW dbo.TEMP_EXPORT_1
AS
SELECT (select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name not like '%1%_2')
FROM dbo.TEMP_EXPORT_1
Am I on the right track? how can I ALTER this view to remove these columns? ... I want to keep this separate from the code that generated the view as I want it as an optional procedure that can be run if needed.
Background - I have a publication that propigates schema changes. I have a view in which I want to remove a column.
Error - Going by what the BOL says, I use Alter View and delete the column from my select statement. I issue the alter view command against the Publication database and it just "churns". I do not get any locking errors or any other type of error, but the statement never completes execution. I watched it run for 10 minutes and cancelled the query. Executing the same statement against a copy of the database that is not being published executes in 1, 2 seconds.
Here is what I am doing:
Old View: Select table1.record_number, table1.record_date, table1.status_code, table2.status_desc,
table2.txt_sort_order
FROM table1 join table2 on table1.status_code = table2.status_code
The query I am executing:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER VIEW myview
AS
Select table1.record_number, table1.record_date, table1.status_code, table2.status_desc
FROM table1 join table2 on table1.status_code = table2.status_code
In SQL Server 2005 SP2 I want to grant the ability to create views to a user but in order to do this it requires that the users has the ability to grant alter on a schema.
Is there any way to grant this privilage without granting alter on schema also?

Hi guys 'n gals,
I created a query, which makes use of a temp table, and I need the results to be displayed in a View. Unfortunately, Views do not support temp tables, as far as I know, so I put my code in a stored procedure, with the hope I could call it from a View....
I tried:
CREATE VIEW [qryMyView]

EXEC pr_MyProc
and unfortunately, it does not let this run.
Anybody able to help me out please?
Cheers!

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I tried to do this myself, but couldn't figure it out since I am very unfamiliar with sql. I have a script that exports data from our store database to a file that is used to update our webstore database. I want to add a chunk to the script that will copy an image file from one directory to another as it loops through the database. I want to copy a picture from directory1 to directory2 that has a name SKU.jpg.
I was told in this forum by Ray Miao that the format of the statement would be:
xp_cmdshell 'Copy c:directory1SKU.jpg c:directory2SKU.jpg'
My problem is that I don't know how or where in my script to place this statement so that it will work. If this is simplke and someone can tell me the setup that would be great. If not, I would be willing to hire someone to do what needs to be done to this script and send it to me. I can be reached at darren@jbjgifts.com or 217-369-2686.

Hi smart people!
I would like to know how to alter a column to have a default value. For instance I have a column AreaCode Char(3) in a table. I have data in the table and now I want to add a default value of '123' to the AreaCode column.
I tried the following but did not work.
Alter Table Phone
Alter Column AreaCode Char(3) Default '123'
Can we even do it using SQL?
