Copy Table Structure To A New Table

Apr 24, 2005

Hello everyone,

I have a local MSSQL server (I guess it's called MSDE), with some tables that I would like to use as a template for a set of new tables. I would simply like a Stored Procedure that takes these 3 tables, makes a copy of their structure (not data, since they will be empty), and name them by using a parameter given to the SP. I have made something that I thought would work, but after testing it a bit more, it seems to forget default values for the fields, which is of course not good enough :). I hope that someone can tell me how to duplicate these 3 tables, including every detail for the fields!

Copy The Table Structure

Nov 7, 2005

Hi,

In SQL Server, Is there any DDL available to copy a table structure alone and not the data,

I believe 'SELECT * into new_table from table1' will copy both structure and data as well.

Please advice,

Thanks,

Copy SQL Express Table Structure To SQL Server

Dec 16, 2005

How does one generate Transact-SQL for table structure in SQL server express 2005?
I have very limited access to an SQL server database (using rudimentary web based interface) for my hosted website.  I am ready to deploy an application that was developed with Visual Studio 2005 using SQL server express as the database.  I have four tables that I want to copy (structure only) from "express" to the hosted SQL server.  I think I need to generate Transact-SQL statements to "create" the table structure, then run these statements as a stored procedure on the web based SQL server.  I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to generate the code from SQL express 2005.  Anyone had any experience with this?
thanks.

Dbo.Table Of A Database In The .SQLEXPRESS Object Explorer: How To Copy The Dbo.Table To The Another Blank Dbo.Table?

Jan 9, 2008

Hi all,

The following dbo.Tables of Northwind.mdf in my .SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server Management Studio Express) are missing:
dbo.Categories
dbo.CustomerCustomerDemo
dbo.CustomerDemographics
dbo.Customers
dbo.Employees
dbo.EmployeeTerritories
dbo.Order Details
dbo.Orders
dbo.Products
dbo.Regions
dbo.Shippers
dbo.Suppliers
dbo.Territories.

But, I have these dbo.Tables in a different Database "xyzDatabase". How can I copy each of these dbo.Tables to the another blank dbo.Table of Northwind Database?

I right clicked on the dbo.Categories and I saw the following thing:
dbo.Categories
New Table...
Modify
Open Table
Script Table as |> CREATYE To |>
DROP To |>
SELECT To |>
INSERT To |> New Query Editor Window
File....
Clipboard
UPDATE To |>
DELETE to |>
From the above observation,I think it is possible to copy the dbo.Table from the one Database to the Northwind Database that needs to be repaired. Please help and advise me how to do this task or tell me where I can find the Microsoft document that gives the details of this X-copy thing.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

P. S. I am using VB 2005 Express to create a project to learn "Calling Stored Procedures with ADO.NET" (see Paul Kimmel's article in http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3438221) that needs the dbo.Tables of Northwind Database and my Northwind Database has been screwed up for quite a while and needs a big repair.

Database Automatically Creates Xxx_Temp Table While Modifying / Updating Table Structure .

Dec 16, 2007

Hello friends,

I am new to the SQL Server 2005 development.

From last 1 week or so, i have been facing very strange problem with my sql server 2005s database
which is configured and set on the hosting web server. Right now for managing my sql server 2005 database,
i am using an web based Control Panel developed by my hosting company.

Problem i am facing is that, whenever i try to modify (i.e. add new columns) tables in the database,
it gives me error saying that,

"There is already an object named 'PK_xxx_Temp' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider".

where xxx is the table name.

I have done quite a bit research on the problem and have also searched on the net for solution but still
the problem persist.

Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciated.

Transact SQL :: Table Structure - Inserting Data From Other Temp Table

Aug 14, 2015

Below is my table structure. And I am inserting data from other temp table.

CREATE TABLE #revf (
[Cusip] [VARCHAR](50) NULL, [sponfID] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, GroupSeries [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [tran] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [AddDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [SetDate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [PoolNumber] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Aggregate] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [Price] [VARCHAR](max) NULL, [NetAmount] [VARCHAR](max) NULL,

[Code] ....

Now in a next step I am deleting the records from #revf table. Please see the delete code below

DELETE
FROM #revf
WHERE fi_gnmaid IN (
SELECT DISTINCT r2.fi_gnmaid
FROM #revf r1, #revf r2

[Code] ...

I don't want to create this #rev table so that i can avoid the delete statement. But data should not affect. Can i rewrite the above as below:

SELECT [Cusip], [sponfID], GroupSeries, [tran], [AddDate], [SetDate], [PoolNumber], [Aggregate], [Price], [NetAmount], [Interest],
[Coupon], [TradeDate], [ReversalDate], [Description], [ImportDate], MAX([fi_gnmaid]) AS Fi_GNMAID, accounttype, [IgnoreFlag], [IgnoreReason], IncludeReversals, DatasetID, [DeloitteTaxComments], [ReconciliationID],

How Do I Copy / Insert A Primary Key Value Of One Table Into Another Table?

Dec 10, 2007

 

Hi i have set up  two very simple tables, I want a user to be able to create a basic account ( data stored in User_Profile  table with Id set as the Primery Key as Identity) I
want the user to be able to be able to return to their account at a later date
and then post multiple reviews of different bands they have seen at a later date.
I kept the tables in my example very simple so I could get my head
around the concept, but generally, I want to connect the Id (PK) value in
User_Profile table to the User_Id filed in the User_Review table,
so every review that user writes, will be connected directly to their Id.  

Any help you could give would be fantastic a i have no idea where to start!!!

  

User_Profile

Id   int,  ( as primary Identity Key)

Name

City

Country

 

I have a second table called User Reviews

 User_Revews

Revew_Id   int ,  ( as primary Identity Key)

User_Id  int, ( I want this to contain the Id value in
the User profile Table)

Review_Details

 

 

Thanks

I Can Really Use Some Help.Table Structure

May 4, 2004

How can I setup a table structure for the diagram shown in the attached bitmap?

1) I need to create a product using labour and materials.
2) I need to create hardware using labour and materials.
3) I need to be able to include some hardware in some products.
4) Some materials in the product are made of a culmination of materials. E.G., Concrete is made of sand, stone, and cement.

Any suggestions?

So far I have :


USE NORTHWIND

Create Table tbProducts (
ProductID int NOT NULL,
Product varchar(50)
)

go

ALTER TABLE tbProducts
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProducts_pk PRIMARY KEY (ProductID)
GO

CREATE Table tbMaterials (
MaterialID int NOT NULL,
Material varchar (50)
)

GO

ALTER TABLE tbMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (MaterialID)
GO

CREATE Table tbLabour (
LabourCode char (2) NOT NULL,
Labour varchar(50)
)

GO
ALTER TABLE tbLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (LabourCode)
GO

CREATE Table tbProductMaterials (
fkProductID int NOT NULL,
fkMaterialID int NOT NULL,
Quantity Float NOT NULL
)

GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkProductID, fkMaterialID)
GO

ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterils_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkMaterialID)
REFERENCES tbMaterials (MaterialID)

GO
ALTER TABLE tbProductMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductMaterils_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkProductID)
REFERENCES tbProducts (ProductID)
GO

CREATE TABLE tbProductLabour (
fkProductID int NOT NULL,
fkLabourCode char(2) NOT NULL,
Manpower int NULL DEFAULT(0),
Hours float NULL DEFAULT(0.0)
)

GO

ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkProductID, fkLabourCode)
GO

ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkLabourCode)
REFERENCES tbLabour (LabourCode)

GO

ALTER TABLE tbProductLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbProductLabour_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkProductID)
REFERENCES tbProducts (ProductID)

GO

CREATE TABLE tbHardware (
HardwareID int NOT NULL,
Hardware varchar(50)
)

go

ALTER TABLE tbHardware
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardware_pk PRIMARY KEY (HardwareID)
GO


CREATE Table tbHardwareMaterials (
fkHardwareID int NOT NULL,
fkMaterialID int NOT NULL,
Quantity Float NOT NULL
)

GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkHardwareID, fkMaterialID)
GO

ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkMaterialID)
REFERENCES tbMaterials (MaterialID)

GO
ALTER TABLE tbHardwareMaterials
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareMaterials_Hardware_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkHardwareID)
REFERENCES tbHardware (HardwareID)
GO

CREATE TABLE tbHardwareLabour (
fkHardwareID int NOT NULL,
fkLabourCode char(2) NOT NULL,
Manpower int NULL DEFAULT(0),
Hours float NULL DEFAULT(0.0)
)

GO

ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareLabour_pk PRIMARY KEY (fkHardwareID, fkLabourCode)
GO

ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour

REFERENCES tbLabour (LabourCode)

GO

ALTER TABLE tbHardwareLabour
ADD CONSTRAINT tbHardwareLabour_Product_fk FOREIGN KEY (fkHardwareID)
REFERENCES tbHardware (HardwareID)
GO



This table structure does not include anything about accounts and item 4) making materials from 1 or more other materials (E.G., Concrete).

Any hints how to incorporate these outstanding items?

Structure Table ..

Dec 13, 2007

I'm new in creating tables. and I was asked to create table(s) to capture information using SQL server 2005 (express edition)

please read below and share your thoughts and opinions o what's the efficient and best way to structure the tables.

I need to capture user's input daily and every hour, text can be from 20-100 characters, and my company is expecting to have 50,000+users in the future...Also the hrs's text can be stored for max 120 days, after that data would be deleted from the table(s)
An example is put all together, (not sure if it is the right and efficient way)

An example is put all together, (not sure if it is the rigth and effectient way) and if database would support that.. and if it will be fast enougth to search for data

(table structure) - (example with 3 users)
userId | timestap | message
1 12/12/2007 10:00 some message
1 12/12/2007 11:00 some message
1 12/12/2007 12:00 some message
1 12/12/2007 13:00 some message
1 12/12/2007 14:00 some message
2 12/12/2007 10:00 some message
2 12/12/2007 11:00 some message
3 12/12/2007 12:00 some message
3 12/12/2007 13:00 some message
3 12/12/2007 14:00 some message ...etc..

Best Structure For The Table

Feb 11, 2008



Hi,
I have one field "Status" with 15 different types of values. Like 1, 2, 3, 4 .. 15.
Now this Status field contains the values like this:
Id Status
1 1,2
2 3
3 1,2,3
4 13,15

What is the best way to organize this information in SQLServer table?
My idea is Create one table with the following volumns: ID, Status1, Status2, Status3, ... Status14, Status15.

Now the above data look like this:
Id Status1 Status2 Status3 ... Status13 Status14 Status15
1 1 1 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 1 0 0 0
3 1 1 1
4 0 0 0 1 0 1

So, In future If they add new column they can easily add column like status16.
And status table look like this
Status
StatusID Description
1 a
2 b
..
15

Thanks in advance

Question On Table Structure

Jun 24, 2007

 All,On my aspx page i have 2 sets of checkboxlists, each with a number of items and i am storing that info in my db. currently i have my table set up this way: InfoID--PK autoUserID-intCheckBoxList1ID-intCheckBoxList2ID-int  So a user can select more than 1 item in each checkbox, so this table will contain multiple user-ids and each id from the respective checkboxes. My question is, is there a better way to store this data? I hope this is clear, any input would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

Sth Confusing About Table Structure

Oct 27, 2007

Hi,I have a table for storing my picture albums here it is:CREATE TABLE [UserAlbum] ( [ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1)    NOT NULL , [UserID] [int] default(0) , [AlbumName] [nvarchar] (100) NULL , [Audience] [int] default(0) , [Date_added] [smalldatetime] NULL , CONSTRAINT PK_CmmNet_userAlbum_ID PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( ID )) ON [PRIMARY]GO
it has a field called "audience" as the name defines i want to choose who will see my albumsit is integer and as follows:0 value=everyone1=friends only2=private
as i started to write a query for it i came into this problem:  for exampleif i write SELECT * FROM UserAlbum where   audience=1 then only friends can see the infowhat happens to everyone with value of 0?when i set it to 0, friends should also be able to see the info because it is set for everybody
i noticed i should use "in cluase" like thisSELECT * FROM UserAlbum where   audience in ('0','1') > so in this way both everyone and also friends can see the info
or maybe i should add 3 different fields for private,public,friends
it seems to be simple but at the same time harddoes anyone have a  suggestion?

My question is how can i make the scenario above reflect in my table structure, would i need to create another table, if so what fields or columns should i place in this new table, thank you.
