Hello, everyone:
I have a table with an indentity column as first column. At beginning it is continue such as 0-50. I delete last 20 columns by hand. The 0-31 is left. When the new data is inserted, I hope the new indentity column begin from 32. How to do that? Now the indentity column begin from 51 as the new data is inserted.
Thanks a lot

when I use the code
SET IDENTITY_INSERT tss_Cable ON
go
DECLARE @@nextidentval int
SELECT @@nextidentval = MIN(IDENTITYCOL) + IDENT_INCR(tss_Cable)
FROM tss_Cable t1
WHERE IDENTITYCOL BETWEEN IDENT_SEED(tss_Cable) AND 2147483646
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM tss_Cable t2
WHERE t2.IDENTITYCOL = t1.IDENTITYCOL IDENT_INCR(tss_Cable))
go
SET IDENTITY_INSERT tss_Cable OFF
I get the following error.
error line 2 Incorrect syntax near IDENT_INCR.
error line 6 incorrent syntax near IDENT_INCR.
I would like to reset the identity without droping the table. I'm using
sql 6.5. I looked at Mark Lessard 12/17/99 respose on this issue and changed
the code to match his version but the same error occured.
As an example I have three tables
Table1
ChildName (nvarchar)30
ChildID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™
Table2
ParentName(nvarchar)30
ParentID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™
Table3
ChildID (INT)
ParentID (INT)
I have the following code.
Dim dbcnn As SqlClient.SqlConnection = New SqlClient.SqlConnection(dbsettings.getDatabaseString)
Dim dbcmd As SqlClient.SqlCommand
dbcmd_AddDriverRoute = New SqlClient.SqlCommand("usp_Insert", dbcnn)
dbcmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
dbcmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ChildID ", cmb_child.SelectedItem)
dbcmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ParentID ", "@@IDENTITY")
dbcnn.Open()
dbcmd.ExecuteScalar()
dbcnn.Close()
basically what I want to do is when a child is added I want to be able to insert ParentID (INT) Set as €˜IDENTITY€™ value into table3 ParentID (INT) .
I have my sql statement in place I am not sure how to take an identity value stored in the db.
i have table with one column
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblTest](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL
how do i insert values.(i,e identity)
I am trying to remove the Indentity property from a column so I can do some clean up. Then will need to add it back. Adding Indentity property back is not a problem, but cant figure out how to remove it in the first place.
Any help would be greatly apprecaited.
Thanks

Hi All,
I had an interesting problem come up today. I have a report that when you preview on vs or click view report on the report server, the report continually refreshes itself. I cannot see that I have written anything different in this report than any other report.
I saw one other append here on a continually refreshing report but that was linked to a document map and this report has not document map.
Has anyone seen this problem of a continually refreshing report?
It's not a big deal as I figure I will just have to write it from scratch again, but I am interested to see if I can stop it before I re-write it.
Thanks in Advance

I am installing a new instance of SQL 2005 including reporting services and have a serious problem. All looks fine from the Reporting Services Configurations system, however, when attempting to browse to http://servername/reports I get an authentication challenge. All forms of credentials are rejected. The server is a Member server in the domain and SQL Server and the reporting services are installed on this server.
Any help would be appreciated as this is holding up the server installation and I have conducted exhaustive searches for a solution.
This problem is also reported in this thread, although, no solutions have been provided for a long time, so I am re-posting:

Hi(SQL Server 2000)I have an existing table (t) with a column that is NOT an identity column(t.ID), but it has manually inserted "row numbers". I want to make thiscolumn become an identity column. This column is a key field to othertables, so I want to keep the row numbers that are allready inserted.From the Query Analyzer, how do I do this?Thanks in advance!Regards,Gunnar VøyenliEDB-konsulent asNORWAY

How to display each customer in ONE row and list his account one next to another ?
for example:
custID, acct#1, acct#1Balance, acct#2, acct#2Balance, acct#3, acct#3Balance
how to do write SQl to achive it ?
This is chanllenging to me...
Your advise is greatly appreciated !
This is what I would like to do...
1. Alter Table Status
Add ConsiderOpenFlag int null
2. UPDATE values...
3. Alter Table Status
Alter ConsiderOpenFlag int not null
Steps 1 and 2 are easy. What I cannot figure out is step three.
I don't want to have a default on that column, though I wouldn't mind adding it and then dropping it later if it would help.

Hello, I have a table (publication) that has a primary key pubID which is an identity specification. This ID already has relationships to other tables.
I am having problems trying to make one of the other columns in the same table to auto generate. This column (bibNumber) is not related to any other table. All i want to do is when i create a new record in the table, auto generate a number for this column bibNumber.
How can i do this?

I have a table with a TEXT column that allows nulls.
Now I need to change it, and make it NOT NULL, but I Can't
ALTER TABLE BUSINESS_UNIT_LANG
alter column VISION text not null
And I get:
Server: Msg 4928, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot alter column 'VISION' because it is 'text'.
Is it impossible to make a text column NOT NULL when it accepts NULLS ?
All rows and columns are populated, in consequence there isn't any col with null values
Any idea?
Thanks!

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm making some reports that are made for getting printed. I currently have three groups of reports, each group having four charts (four A4 papers/group). To cut down on the sheer number of papers on the boards I've been asked to merge these charts so that we'll have all three groups in one chart. This works fine for three of the charts (two line charts and one column chart), where the results gets neatly organized in group order. Where I ran into problems was the last chart..
The last chart is a stacked column chart. With one group, it works quite well; the x-axis is by year/week, and for each week there's a bar where the lower part is "done" and the upper part is "failed".
Now when doing this graph with multiple groups (groups as series), it doesn't put the different groups beside each other as I would've wished, instead it piles them on top of each other as if it was a 100% stacked column.
So the question is; is there some way to make a stacked column graph with multiple series that are one stacked bar per group instead of having all of them stacked on top of each other? Am I just missing some small detail here?

The reason I say this is because a subtotal of a dollar amount will take up more space than other values. Right now, I'm forced to make all columns the same larger width because it appears to be all wrapped into 1 column width setting. I can try to change the value of the subtotal column, "matrixcolumn4", but it reverts to the other value after I press enter to apply the changes.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi folks!
I need to populate a table having an identity field with data (basically I want to make a copy of a table with identity column on another server). When I use BCP to insert data then the values in the identity field is not the same as in the data file but gets incremented from the original.
eg. if the records in the flat file are-
1, 'test1'
2, 'test2'
Now if i insert this into the table (say the last identity value was 100) then rows get inserted as-
101, 'test1'
102, 'test2'
Is there any way by which I can retain the values of the identity column to be same as in the file?
Thanks!
How do reset identity seed on table, for example I have table that has gap in the identity such as (1,2,3,5,6, etc..) and I want reset the entire table.

I am sorry if this is the wrong forum for this question but I can not find better fit.
I am using Visual Studio 2005 to write an asp.net web site which includes an SQL data base. In the databaseI have a table called 'ACCOUNTS' which has primary key column called 'ID' and a nvarchar column called 'Name'.
I want the values in the 'Name' column to be unique in the table so that all accounts have unique names. I don't want to make the 'Name' column the primary key because I want people to be able to change the name of their account after it has been created.
It seems to me there must be some way to add such a constraint to the table but I can find none. I have searched the documentation and seen loads of references to unique columns but I can't find any way to set a column to unique thru the IDE (or any other way). Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance for any help.
