I am creating update trigger(After) on a table.I want to catch an updated row and insert the values of this row into
a new table.How can i catch this row while creating a trigger after update.
I want to update several columns in different tables whenever an update is happend on specific table. I have a trigger for that which update all the relevant places when it fires.
I want to do this update only if certains columns were changed, otherwise - do anything, to reduce performance.
How Can I know which columns were updated inside the trigger? The tables has many columns and only if 2 of them were changed then I need to update other tables.
Im using a trigger to check updates on particular table and execute a email. it works but it doesnt show the right record im looking into one table called SiteInfo. here is my code Im using sql 2005, can someone look at my code or the select statement.
Hi guys, may I know is it possible to create an update trigger like this ? Assuming there are two database, database A and database B and both are having same tables called 'Payments' table. I would like to update the Payments records on database A automatically after Payments records on database B had been updated. I can't use replication because both tables might having different records and some records are the same. Hope can get any assistance here, thank you.
Hi, I have one problem when I try to update one record in the data base. Such error arises when I update a table and a trigger raises an error, I cant catch it within the Row_Updating event command and I dont know how to get it within the Row_Updated event, because the exception happes before that command. Also, I tried in the sqldatasource updating event but I got no results. Any idea? thanks in advance.
I was able to catch one update but not multiple updates or batch updates done to the table. I know the updated records are residing in inserted and deleted tables. Without using cursors, how can i read and compare all the rows in these two tables?
Hi SQL fans,I realized that I often encounter the same situation in a relationdatabase context, where I really don't know what to do. Here is anexample, where I have 2 tables as follow:__________________________________________ | PortfolioTitle|| Portfolio |+----------------------------------------++-----------------------------+ | tfolio_id (int)|| folio_id (int) |<<-PK----FK--| tfolio_idfolio (int)|| folio_name (varchar) | | tfolio_idtitle (int)|--FK----PK->>[ Titles]+-----------------------------+ | tfolio_weight(decimal(6,5)) |+-----------------------------------------+Note that I also have a "Titles" tables (hence the tfolio_idtitlelink).My problem is : When I update a portfolio, I must update all theassociated titles in it. That means that titles can be either removedfrom the portfolio (a folio does not support the title anymore), addedto it (a new title is supported by the folio) or simply updated (atitle stays in the portfolio, but has its weight changed)For example, if the portfolio #2 would contain :[ PortfolioTitle ]id | idFolio | idTitre | poids1 2 1 102 2 2 203 2 3 30and I must update the PortfolioTitle based on these values :idFolio | idTitre | poids2 2 202 3 352 4 40then I should1 ) remove the title #1 from the folio by deleting its entry in thePortfolioTitle table2 ) update the title #2 (weight from 30 to 35)3 ) add the title #4 to the folioFor now, the only way I've found to do this is delete all the entriesof the related folio (e.g.: DELETE TitrePortefeuille WHERE idFolio =2), and then insert new values for each entry based on the new givenvalues.Is there a way to better manage this by detecting which value has to beinserted/updated/deleted?And this applies to many situation :(If you need other examples, I can give you.thanks a lot!ibiza
How do you make an update cascade opperation if you want to set the PK to an excisting one? I have a table where to post are the same only the PK differs, now I want to delete one but transfer it's dependecies. i.e redirect its references to the other post. How can I do that using on update cascade/delete. I see a catch 22 coming up!
what i'm trying to do is when a record is deleted, it's not actually deleted in the table but only marked 1 (true) the Deleted field.. because i don't want to lose the relationship...
it's easy to do this on insert statement like this..
Create Procedure InsertCustomer(@param1 ....) AS IF NOT EXIST (SELECT * FROM tbl_Customer WHERE DELETED = 0) THEN // do insert statement here ELSE // Do nothing
GO
this is also easy if i create a index constraints on the table.. but this will violate my design idea..
so anybody can help me to create the procedure in update statement and insert statement
I use a storeed procedure to execure a dynamic sql string sent from an application. This string often contain a simple update. An update with anyting but one row affected is in this case to be considered an error/problem. As ut use the primary key in the where clause the and I want to store away the update values in anoter table
I want to act on the "(0 row(s) affected)" message. Is there a way to do that or do I have to query the database before I do the update?
I am a newbie creating triggers and I would like to know what is the name of the updated logical table. That is, since the are identifiers like "inserted" and "deleted" that represent the inserted and deleted rows, respectivaly, I presumed that "updated" existed - but it does not.
I have a table with a column named "UpdatedTimeStamp" which I would like to update anytime the other columns are modified. I intended to create the following trigger:
create trigger myTrigger on myTable after update as
update updated set UpdateTimeStamp=GetDate()
Of course, "updated" is not a valid identifier that represents the updated row.
Please, help me in creating this trigger. What is the correct way of doing a trigger like this?
Hi,I want to log updates to specific fields, storing the new and oldvalues. Is there any way I can iterate the collection of updatedfields within a trigger in order accomplish this?Thanks in advance,Julie Vazquez
We have a column syncUpdate in some tables and we need a trigger (or one for each table) which will set the current dateTime for the syncLastUpdate (dateTime) when either the row is inserted or updated (we have to ignore the syncLastUpdate column itself as this would be an infinite loop, I think).
I don't know much about DB but I think that is easly doable.
Hi All, I am using a trigger. I want to get the data of a row before updating inside this trigger and insert it into a backup table. Please anybody help me. Example with code is highly appreciated.
I am having a hard time understanding triggers. My goal is to put a trigger on table x where records are UPDATED or DELETED. When this trigger fires I need to take the record ID and put the ID modified record into table y with the date modified. so basically logging the recordid changed with the getDate()
I don't quite understand how to get the rowid of the modified record.
Hello, I am using SQL Server 2005 and ASP.NET 2.0. We have a very simple content management system where we have to keep track of date last modified for each row in all of our content tables. I know there's a "timestamp" datatype that is used for replication scenarios, but is there anything similar that I can use to set up a date_modified column for each of my content tables that will automatically update with GETDATE() whenever anything in a given row is updated? Or do I have to create a date_modified column of smalldatetime datatype and write a trigger on update for EVERY single table of content that I have in the database? It seems there should be an easier way to do this than to write 20 triggers for my 20 content tables. Thanks!
I'm having trouble with a Script Component in a data flow task. I have code that does a SqlCommand.ExecuteReader() call that throws an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' error. Thing is, the SqlCommand.ExecuteReader() call is already inside a Try..Catch block. Essentially I have two questions regarding this error:
a) Why doesn't my Catch block catch the exception? b) I've made sure that my SqlCommand object and the SqlConnection property that it uses are properly instantiated, and the query is correct. Any ideas on why it is throwing that exception?
I am looking to created a trigger that inserts records into a log table to show the stored porcedure that has updated a specific column to a specific value in a specific table
At present I have:
CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[trUpdaterTable] ON [dbo].[t_account]-- A DB level trigger FOR UPDATE --Event we want to capture AS IF update (document_status)
[Code] ...
However this doesn't appear to bring back the procedure that triggered the update...
The value the trigger should update on is document_status = 0
I wrote a stored proc to be implemented in a datagrid. I went and used it on a record to update some information and it updated THE WHOLE DATABASE WITH THAT ONE RECORD..
IF anyone could shead some light on what I'm doing wrong that would be great.

I know 2008 MS SQL Server has a timestamp data type that adds date and time when the rows are inserted. Is there a way to automatically update the date and time when the rows are updated?
I'm working on databases where statistics of some indexes (tables) are changing too frequently. Once I update them manually, one minute after they get 10-20% change, and five minutes after they get over 100% change. Tables get updated very frequently (multiple times in a second).
When I run a query to read from sys.stats, sys.dm_db_stats_properties and other dynamic views, I see that they were last updated when I did it manually, but the change rate overpassed the 500+20% (tables have multiples of 10K rows). Auto create and update statistics are set to true on all databases, and I don't know why sql server does not do that automatically.
I want to retrieve the last update time of database. Whenever any update or delete or insert happend to my database i want to store and retrieve that time.
I know one way is that i have to make a table that will store the datetime field and system trigger / trigger that can update this field record whenever any update insert or deletion occur in database.
But i don't know exactly how to do the coding for this?
