I'm trying to do a simple alteration to the table design of one of our
SQL 2k tables, simply changing an identity row so that its not 'not
for replication', and its taking absolutely ages to do so, and stops
the sql server from working.
Whilst it's attempting the update, no one can access the database, the
sqlservr.exe memory usage shoots up and enterprise manager reports a
not responding status. Eventually after about 10 minutes, it bombs out
reporting,
Unable to modify table
Could not allocate space for object 'Tmp_TableName' in database
'DBNAME' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full.
The table i'm attempting to change has only about 4000 records so
there's not a huge amount of data.
Any ideas what's causing this and how i can get around it?
A similar thing happens when i attempt to change the length of a
varchar too.
SQL Server 7.0 (SP1) Error: ------ OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time.
A column was deleted from the a table on the linked server and now this message appears when using the linked server definition to access the table. Deleting/Recreating the Linked Server has no effect. I found an earlier note on this...but it just kind of ended with no resolution. Anyone have any thoughts on this now.

Hi! I've added a column to a published table in the Publisher using SP_REPLADDCOLUMN. After doing this the replication triggers for that table(i.e. del_%,upd_%,ins_%) are doubled both at the Publisher and at the Subscriber. If i update anyone of the column in the table at the Subscriber; i get the following error:
Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure upd_3E6DE124B82D42A5AEB169557C0D757C, Line 60 Invalid object name 'ctsv_3E6DE124B82D42A5AEB169557C0D757C'.
Any ideas, what has gone wrong????
I have the following SQL setup. Publisher: Enterprise Edition, SP3. Subscriber: Standard-Edition, SP3. The error is at the Subscriber.
I'm wondering if an idea I'm playing with is feasible and if so, how you would recommend implementing it.
Let's say I have a Dictionary table, 2 columns:
Word | Definition
And I have a string - "The cat sat on the dog"
If there's a definition for "cat" in the dictionary table, I want to alter the string so it becomes "The >>cat<< sat on the dog"
At the same time, if there's also a definition for "dog" then my string now becomes "The >>Cat<< sat on the >>Dog<<"
The idea being that when I manipulate the data in my ASP I can replace() the >><< with specific HTML code. (I'm trying to recreate the "in text" advertising thing that lots of people seem to be using - but not doing adverts, just information for our users - Someone hovers over a highlighted word, and with a little bit of Ajax, I can pull the definition out...
I'm not sure (but I'm suspecting) that it would make more sense to do this as I'm storing the string in a table, rather than as I'm pulling it out ready for use (don't want to be slowing my end users down )
Altering a table which is having more than 100 million rows. Would like to know the best possible way to add a new column to this table without impacting the performance much.
I have a db1.tPersonJobHist where I have two columns
[WorkflowCoordinatorFlag] [dbo].[shrsFlag] NOT NULL, [HRBusinessPartnerCode] [dbo].[shrsCode] NULL,
Our developer mistakenly made HRbusinesspartnercode field as nullable. He now wants to change it to Not Nullable.
So there were 4 rows where the values were not null(not sure how). We edited those rows and changed those values to NUll. Now we have no Nulls in that column.
So we brought up the table designer and made the change but got the following error
'tPersonJobHist' table - Unable to modify table.
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'HRBusinessPartnerCode', table 'BD6578.dbo.Tmp_tPersonJobHist'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
Question is why wouldn't it let me alter the table design. and what is tmp_tpersonjobhist.?
it is used in an web application that seraches for all the rest of the information using an orderid and displays the rest of the details the size of the table currently is about 123000 records that is increasing by 20000 every week.
i have an archive of the same data that has 7,666,000 records that are also going to be placed into the same database.
my question is is that a good idea of doing this? are there any performance issues that i need to be aware of as currently the application runs quite quick?
Hello gurus:Hopefully someone can shed some light on some questions I have. I amtasked to build an application that will schedule and track tasks. Ifirmly believe in not reinventing the wheel however also feel thatcustomizing is certainly not out of the question.I am looking to build something in ASP (or .NET) that can allow anindividual to work "disconnected" from the network while stillaccessing a database (MSDE?) that will sync with SQL 2000 oncere-connected. I have built multiple db apps that are strictly webbased and consider myself somewhat knowledgeable (read.. dangereous)SQL/ASP dude. I understand that for a stand-alone client app I mayhave to use .NET and load the framewsork on the client in order to runthe dynamic pages for database updates. Here are my questions:1) Is there a way for SQL server to "replicate" its tables into aschema/data recognized by MSDE (i.e. generate the "mother ship" tablesand schema first, then use SQL Server to automatically create (export)the client MSDE tables)2) are there tools to manage MSDE so one can see what the heck is inthere? I understand Enterprise manager will not work in this regard.3) Are there any resources (documents, tutorials etc..) for datareplication (i.e. dbsync from MSDE up to MSSQL and vice-versa)4) Am I wasting my time doing this from scratch because there isalready something out there that does all this that is moderatelypriced and customizable?Thanks for your attention and consideration.Eric B
I am studying for the above exam and have got a new laptop with the basic version of Vista pre-installed on it. I've got an evaluation version of SQL Server 2000 I got from a Microsoft event but the basic version of Vista I have, will not let me install it.
Can anyone advise me whether SQL Server Express will be useful in studying for the SQL Server 2000 Design 70-229 Exam?
If not, I see my options as fork out for an older OS licence - XP pro to put on the laptop which would allow me to install the evaluation edition. Not my first choice but it would do...
How to alter all objects in database i want to find if can any syntax errors in my database after restoring from sql 2008 to 2012. I Can create as test and drop them but trying to find a way to alter proc , views and functions..
I'm in the process of building messaging functionality in to my application where by users can contact one another, look at it as a dating site, you click on someones profile, view their profile and then send that user a message.
I started to build the table which looked like this:
Id (PK) (Increments by 1)
ToUserId (FK) -- User who they're getting in contact with
FromUserId (FK) -- User who sent the message
Content (nvarchar(3000)) -- Message being send
Status (int) -- read / new / deleted / sent
EmailDate (datetime)
EmailDeleted (datetime)
But the problem with this setup is both user's maybe sending / replying to each other so I would have multiple entries / statuses in one table which may become a nightmare to manage / control.
I would like to create a table called product. My objective is to get list of packages available for each product in data grid view column while selecting each product. Each product may have different packages type (eg:- Nos, CTN, OTR etc). Some product may have two packages and some for 3 packages etc. Quantity in each packages also may be differ ( for eg:- for some CTN may contain 12 nos or in other case 8 nos etc). Prices for each packages also will be different that also need to show. How to design the table..
Product name : Nestle milk | Rainbow milk packages : CTN,OTR, NOs |
CTN, NOs Price: 50,20,5 | 40,6
(Remarks for your reference):CTN=10nos, OTR=4 nos | CTN=8 Nos

I have a requirement of table partitioning. we have 10 years of data on a table which is 30 billion up rows on 2005 server we are upgrading it to 2014. we have to keep 7 years of data. there is no keys on table or date column. since its a huge amount of data and many users its slow down the process speed. we are thinking to do partition on 7 years for Quarterly based. but as i said there is no date column on table we have to use reference table to get date. is there a way i can do the partitioning with out adding date column on table? also does partition will make query faster?
I have think three ways to do it. 1. leave as it is. 2. 7 years partition on one server 3. 3 years partition on server1 and 4 years partition on server2 (for 4 years is snapshot better?)

An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
How can I get the table sizes for data and transaction logs just like we had in SQL Server 7.0 on the first screen of the Entreprise Manager?
I remember having a bar showing used space in blue and unused in magenta. I bet there are a couple of functions that can be added in a script that will retreive this info.
