Correct Way To Insert Data Into Multiple Tables (Stored Procedure)
Nov 3, 2007
Hi
I am currently developing my first database driven application and I have stumbled over some quite simple issue. I'll describe my database design first:
I have one table named images(id (identity), name, description) and one table named albums (id, name, description). Since I'd like to establish a n:n connection between these, I defined an additional table ImageInAlbum (idImage, idAlbum). The relation between these tables works as expected (primary keys, foreign keys appear to be ok).
Now I'd like to insert data via a stored procedure in sql server 2005 and I'm not sure how this procedure will look like.
To add a simple image to a given album, I am trying to do the following:
* Retrieve name, description from the UI
* Insert a new row into images with this data
* Get the ID from the newly created row
* Insert a new row into "ImageInAlbum" with the ID just retrieved and a fixed Id from the current album.
I know how I would do the first two things, but I am not used to Stored Procedures syntax yet to know how to do the other things.
Any help is appreciated ... even if it means telling me that I am doing something terribly wrong
Hello I am building a survey application. I have 8 questions. Textbox - Call reference Dropdownmenu - choose Support method Radio button lists - Customer satisfaction questions 1-5 Multiline textbox - other comments. I want to insert textbox, dropdown menu into a db table, then insert each question score into a score column with each question having an ID. I envisage to do this I will need an insert query for the textbox and dropdownlist and then an insert for each question based on ID and score. Please help me! Thanks Andrew
Hi all,I have heard that we must insert into two tables simultaneously when there is a ONE-TO-ONE relationship. Can anyone tell me how insert into two tables at the same time, using SP? Thanks Tomy
I'm writing a Intranet web application to allow users to add presentation files to a web site for others to download. The presentations are to be grouped by categories, however I want them to be able to create additional categories if needed. I have created two tables.
On my web page I want to call a stored procedure to insert records into the PresentationFiles table. I have check boxes on the web form for all the possible categories that exist. A user can check each category that this presentation applies too.
In my stored procedure, how do I accomplish inserting a record for each category that is selected on the web form?
I'm guessing that I'll need to pass the categoryID's parameter into the procedure as a delimited string and then process this string for each categoryID and insert records into the PresentationFiles table using a While loop. I'm just not clear on how this is accomplished.
Any advice on how to do it differently or other resources that you can point me to is very much appreciated.
My stored procedure is giving me an error, it says "Unable to parse query text", and I'm certain the problem is with the SELECT statements. What am I doing wrong?
hi. can anyone help me, please. i am using vwd2005 express edition and sql server 2005 express. i want to insert data in multiple tables at once. the tales are linked to each other through primary key and foreign keys. for example i have one table with a primary key. when i add data to it, i have to retrieve the id of the newly inserted record and then introduce this id in another table as a foreign key. i have 10 tables linked in this way, and only one form to add data to the database. can you help me, please? i'd be very greatful. thanks.
Hi there!!! Trying to figure something out, I have searched this forum but no answer to my dilemma.
I have three tables on a database that I have to insert new data and update the old one. The structure of the tables is like this:
Table1 custid int primary key,identity fname varchar(30) lname varchar(30)
Table2 fileid int primary key, identity ssn varchar(11) custid int foreign key
Table3 statusid int primary key,identity title varchar(18) fileid int foreign key
This is very general but that's the idea. Now I receive a text file with the necessary info, I've already parse and break down the file into the correct fields.
Now for my question, how I insert the relevant data onto the tables from this one parsed file? and also how I go about inserting the primary keys from the different tables onto the foreign keys of each tables?
I tried relationships and key indexes, but it just spew a bunch of errors, that I'm investigating.
I know a sql stored procedure can return >1 tables. How can I use .Net 2.0 to read these tables one at a time, for example the first one could iterate Forum entries and the second one all internal links used in these forums... The idea is to use fewer backtrips to the sql server?
I have 3 tables: CUSTOMER, SALES_HEADER, SALES_DETAIL and there are no relationships / keys between these tables.
I want to INSERT into SALES_HEADER from CUSTOMER & SALES_DETAIL. Here is the query I used.
insert into sales_header (SALES_ID, CUST_ID, SALES_AMOUNT) select SALES_DETAIL.sales_id, SUM(SALES_DETAIL.prod_price) as sales_amount, CUSTOMER.CUST_ID from SALES_DETAIL, CUSTOMER where SALES_HEADER.sales_id = CUSTOMER.cust_id group by sales_detail.SALES_ID, CUSTOMER.cust_id;
It shows parsed correctly, but giving error: The multi-part identifier "SALES_HEADER.CUST_ID" could not be bound. How to insert from multiple tables when there are no primary / foreign keys & relationships.
Hi, I have a relational database with the primary table, table01. And 2 child/foreign tables, table02 and table03. All 3 tables shared the same key - [ID]. I am not sure if this is the correct approach but I am trying to create a stored procedure where if I were to delete a the row in table01 (primary), the procedure will automatically delete the common row in both table02 and table03. I have come up with something like that but it does not seems to be correct. CREATE PROCEDURE [sp_delete_test01_1] (@id [int]) AS DELETE [test01] DELETE [test02] DELETE [test03] WHERE ( [id] = @id)GO Your advise please. Many Thanks.
Hi I have asp.net page with approx 28 dropdowns. I need to insert these records using one stored procedure call. How can I do this while not sacrificing performance?
Hi all,can somebody help to write this stored procedure Table1 Table2LogID MigIDUserMove LogIDUserNew Domain User The two tables are inner join with LogID.If in Table2 LogID=NULL then create new dataset in Table1 (INSERT)and then Update LogID in Table2IF in Table2 LogID= 2 (or something else) then update the dataset in Table1 with the same LogID Thanks
I have an empty employee table and employee_details table. The temp table which i created say it has 10 columns of which 6 are from employees and 4 from employee_details. I have loaded some data into temp table say 10 rows.
Now the stored procedure using cursor should be created such that, it should fetch the rows one by one from temp table and insert the values into employee table(6 columns) and the rest in employee_details table(4 columns). This is the scenario.
Here is the column names of my temp table
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[temp]( [employee_id] [char](7) NOT NULL, [first_name] [char](50) NOT NULL, [middle_name] [char](50) NOT NULL, [last_name] [char](50) NOT NULL, [title] [char](5) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
Here the last 4 columns belong to the employee_details table. The stored procedure should fetch record by record from temp split and insert into employee and employee_details table.
I need some help with a stored procedure to insert multiple rows into a join table from a checkboxlist on a form. The database structure has 3 tables - Products, Files, and ProductFiles(join). From a asp.net formview users are able to upload files to the server. The formview has a products checkboxlist where the user selects all products a file they are uploading applies too. I parse the selected values of the checkboxlist into a comma delimited list that is then passed with other parameters to the stored proc. If only one value is selected in the checkboxlist then the spproc executed correctly. Also, if i run sql profiler i can confirm that the that asp.net is passing the correct information to the sproc: exec proc_Add_Product_Files @FileName = N'This is just a test.doc', @FileDescription = N'test', @FileSize = 24064, @LanguageID = NULL, @DocumentCategoryID = 1, @ComplianceID = NULL, @SubmittedBy = N'Kevin McPhail', @SubmittedDate = 'Jan 18 2006 12:00:00:000AM', @ProductID = N'10,11,8' Here is the stored proc it is based on an article posted in another newsgroup on handling lists in a stored proc. Obviously there was something in the article i did not understand correctly or the author left something out that most people probably already know (I am fairly new to stored procs) CREATE PROCEDURE proc_Add_Product_Files_v2/*Declare variables for the stored procedure. ProductID is a varchar because it will receive a comma,delimited list of values from the webform and then insert a rowinto productfiles for each product that the file being uploaded pertains to. */@FileName varchar(150),@FileDescription varchar(150),@FileSize int,@LanguageID int,@DocumentCategoryID int,@ComplianceID int,@SubmittedBy varchar(50),@SubmittedDate datetime,@ProductID varchar(150) ASBEGIN DECLARE @FileID INT SET NOCOUNT ON /*Insert into the files table and retrieve the primary key of the new record using @@identity*/ INSERT INTO Files (FileName, FileDescription, FileSize, LanguageID, DocumentCategoryID, ComplianceID, SubmittedBy, SubmittedDate) Values (@FileName, @FileDescription, @FileSize, @LanguageID, @DocumentCategoryID, @ComplianceID, @SubmittedBy, @SubmittedDate) Select @FileID=@@Identity /*Uses dynamic sql to insert the comma delimited list of productids into the productfiles table.*/ DECLARE @ProductFilesInsert varchar(2000) SET @ProductFilesInsert = 'INSERT INTO ProductFiles (FileID, ProductID) SELECT ' + CONVERT(varchar,@FileID) + ', Product1ID FROM Products WHERE Product1ID IN (' + @ProductID + ')' exec(@ProductFilesInsert) EndGO
Hi can anyone help me with the format of my stored procedure below. I have two tables (Publication and PublicationAuthors). PublicaitonAuthors is the linking table containing foreign keys PublicaitonID and AuthorID. Seeming as one Publication can have many authors associated with it, i need the stored procedure to create the a single row in the publication table and then recognise that multiple authors need to be inserted into the linking table for that single PublicationID. For this i have a listbox with multiple selection =true. At the moment with the storedprocedure below it is creating two rows in PublicaitonID, and then inserting two rows into PublicationAuthors with only the first selected Author from the listbox??? Can anyone help???ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedureTest2 @publicationID Int=null,@typeID smallint=null, @title nvarchar(MAX)=null,@authorID smallint=null AS BEGIN TRANSACTION SET NOCOUNT ON DECLARE @ERROR Int --Create a new publication entry INSERT INTO Publication (typeID, title) VALUES (@typeID, @title) --Obtain the ID of the created publication SET @publicationID = @@IDENTITY SET @ERROR = @@ERROR --Create new entry in linking table PublicationAuthors INSERT INTO PublicationAuthors (publicationID, authorID) VALUES (@publicationID, @authorID) SET @ERROR = @@ERROR IF (@ERROR<>0) ROLLBACK TRANSACTION ELSE COMMIT TRANSACTION

I need to call a stored procedure to insert data into a table in SQL Server from SSIS data flow task. I am currently trying to use OLe Db Destination, but I am not sure how to map inputs to OLE DB Destination to my stored procedure insert. Thanks
I have a table that has data and is indexed by the Visit #. Each month I receive new data from a text file that I have to import into this table. On all occasions the text file will have one of the existing Visit #'s contained in it.
I wrote a simple stored procedure that has the INSERT/SELECT statement but the problem I am having is when I execute the Stored Procedure and I run into a record from the text file that already exist in my table the stored procedure errors and stops at that point.
How do I write a stored procedure that will ignore that text record and continue reading the text file and insert records that do not exist?
Is there a best way of writing stored procedure to access data from multiple databases. we have an archive database and a live database. I need to retrieve the data from both and merge together, perform calculations and then display the data.

Following sp is not executing because an extra single quote is being inserted for the datetime parameter(@joined_date). This is suppose to be a single quote but there are two single quotes. I am calling this stored procedure from web application. sp is executed in sql server 2005. Can someone help me to solve this.
Hopefully someone can help me with this, or tell me if it's even possible for SQL Server 2005. I'm new to this and learning as I go along.
Here's what I want to do - I have a couple of queries running off a linked server. I want to take the results of those queries and insert them into a table in SQL Server, but first I want to delete the current contents of that table. I want to build a stored procedure that I can run monthly to temporarily store this data for review; once I'm ready to review the next month I want the procedure to delete the data in the table and then insert the next month's data. Hopefully that makes sense.
Is it possible to build? Anyone have any examples of such a thing, or can you point me someplace that might be able to help?

Im currently in the process of developing a new system in ASP.net. The system uses multiple tables from a SQL database. To link information from say the products table to the suppliers table a unique key from the suppliers table is stored in the products table to show which products each supplier has bought...simple so far.
From this I can then pull out any of the information relating to that product instead of just displaying the ID. Currently this is done by creating a stored procedure and then dragging the stored procedure onto the dataset layer to create the data adapter.
Im not 100% this is the best way to be doing this. Is it possible to simply just link the tables in the dataset layer to display a string from another table instead of an ID referencing number?!
any help on this would be much appreciated as I cant really continue untill I have sorted out the data structure problems.Thanks in advancedmowfo
I have a situation where I want to load some entities from one table lets say the table is customers and i would like to load all the customers with first name = dummy, not only this i would like to load all the orders and order details for these specific customers (these are two different separate tables) .

I received this stored procedure that I modified to run on my system. Specifically, I only changed the database and filter text and left the rest alone. When I execute the stored procedure, I get the error:
Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure ObjectNotesInsert, Line 18 Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'RefRowPointer', table 'pSCI_App.dbo.ObjectNotes'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated.
Here is the actual stored procedure I am running. I should add that I can execute each step and get results and if I hard code the resulting values into the procedure, the execution works.
USE [pSCI_App] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[_JAMTestSp] Script Date: 09/21/2015 11:32:09 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
I want to insert data calling a stored procedure and call this from a Data Flow destination object. Is it possible?
I understand that Ole Db Command transformation object can call stored procedure, but that will not rollback in the event of error in the middle.
I understand that Ole Db Destination object will rollback in middle of import, but I don't see how to do the insert by calling stored procedure. "Sql Command" option in Ole Db Destination object does not seem to present solution to the problem.
Am I missing something here or is Ssis / Microsoft demanding that Insert stored procedure not be used when using Data Flow destination object to insert data into target table?
