Basically every quarter, using link table i update the figures in my table using basic cut and paste. However this will not work now as the table has become out of order due to the ID'S not beeing in numeric order.example
ID
1

23
24
15
16
2
3
8
34
I am desperate to get these collums back into order so i can paste my data in how do i do this. i want it to be like this
ID
1

3
4
5
ECT
PLEASE HELP
THANKS

For a variety of reasons we need to change the default sort order in a SQL7 installation on about 25 servers. It's currently case insensitive, but we need to change it to case sensitive. To do this we propose to deinstall and reinstall SQL. In order to preserve the data in the tables can anyone suggest the correct procedure.
Thanks

Hi!
Has anyone experienced this problem?
Certain queries that work fine in SQL 6.5 and Oracle return inconsistent / inaccurate results in SQL 7 (with SP1). These queries include an IN clause with a range of values.
For example, the following query:
SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD
FROM table
WHERE columnD = 'I'
AND columnA IN (1,2,3,11,19)
go
returns a different result than this query:
SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD
FROM table
WHERE columnD = 'I'
AND columnA IN (1,3,11,2,19)
go
The only way we have stumbled upon to get accurate results consistently is to order the range values from largest to smallest:
AND columnA IN (19,11,3,2,1)
Have not seen this documented anywhere. We are in the process of re-ordering these ranges in our code, but I welcome any ideas or comments...
Thanks!

Hi All,
When i try to open tables under any database i get an error message that says
" An unexpected error happened during this operation. [Query] Query designer encountered a Query error: Unspecified error".
I uninstalled the Client from my desktop and reinstalled the client.When i try the same operation on the server where the SQL server is installed, i get the same error message.
I have sp2 installed.Would it help if i install sp3?
TIA

I understand that triggers are not allowed against system tables for SQL 7.
Does anyone know if there are third-party solutions for setting triggers against system tables?
Or how one may possibly detect changes against system table without running a scheduled job?
Our requirement dictates that we detect real-time changes to system tables, for example, whenever a new table is created, or column name changed.

Sorry to break the threay i started earlier but once again I need this to work and I have spent al day on it with no luck.
SCOPE:
I need to copy my database from my sql server 7 platform to another office on
another server that also has sql 7. DTS will not work for me due to network traffic and so forth I would get messages saying that it failed. i tried it off/ peak time but still the same.
Now in the days of 6.5 I would be able to creat a new db device for LOAD then I would copy the dump over there and run LOAD database blab blah .. No brainer.
I have tried the following ideas some of you have mentioned such as back up the db (I would zip it copy it over there ) unzip it and tried to RESTORE it but I get the following: "The backup set holds a backup of a database other
than the existing 'mydb' database. Backup or restore operation terminiating abnormally."
I would also try restoring from FILE and I would get the similar message.
Sp_attach and detach no good either.
What am I missing. i would create a new 'mydb' then try the restore all of the above is all I get...

Can anyone tell me of an EASY way to migrate a a database from a SQL 7 server to a SQL 2000 server (two different machines)?
Everything that I have found is only for upgrading SQL 7 to SQL 2000 and this isn't what I need.
Two groups in our company merged into one. The first group has a SQL 7 server that the lease is about to expire on and the second group (mine) has a newer SQL 2000 server that we need to move all of the databases to.
I have tried DTS. It failed. I tried backing up the 7 server and restoring to the new server. It failed.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve

Since the database server was removed to a new Windows Advanced Server 2000, I restored a database from the backup file. When I tried to create a new Login under Security, I got the following error message:
Error 15023: User or role 'MyDatabaseLoginName' already exists in current database.
But I checked it and it doesn't exist. I even could not create a system DSN without the Login. Someone told me to create a new one with another name, but I do not want to change the connection string in my ASP files. Does anyone has any idea about it? Thanks in advance.

This query works perfectly and orders by just as I need
Code:
Select
'1st' As [Type],
#Uno.ID
#Uno.Address,
#Uno.shippingInfo
FROM #Uno
[Code] ....
However, when I use it in a Union All so I can pull data from 2 diff tables, the order by statement no longer works. How can I order by data in 2 tables?
Code:
Select
'1st' As [Type],
#Uno.ID
#Uno.Address,
#Uno.shippingInfo
FROM #Uno
[Code] ....

The data file is a simple Unicode file with lines of text. BCPapparently doesn't guarantee this ordering, and neither does theimport tool. I want to be able to load the data either sequentially oradd line numbering to large Unicode file (1 million lines). I don'twant to deal with another programming language if possible and Iwonder if there's a trick in SQL Server to get this accomplished.Thanks for any help.Mark Leary----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==----http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! >100,000 Newsgroups---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---

Hi,
I'm trying to look for an efficient way to select records from two tables, combine them (not just one set above the other) and also efficiently page the results as well as dynamically order by specific columns. So far I have this....
DECLARE @Temp TABLE
(
IDINTNOT NULL,
NameNVARCHAR(128)NOT NULL,
TypeCHAR(1)NOT NULL
)
INSERT INTO @Temp
SELECT i.ID, i.Name, Type = 'I' FROM Item i
UNION
SELECT p.ID, p.Name, Type = 'P'FROM Package p
SELECT * FROM @Temp
ORDER BY Name ASC
I was going to then implement some sort of of ROW_NUMBER like paging and ordering on the @Temp table variable. Problem is there could be potentially 1000's or more Items and Packages and they would all go in this single Temp table before having records 1 to 10 returned. Is there a more efficient way of doing this before I proceed any further?
Many thanks for any help! :)

Hi!
I'm trying to get the results from three different tables, where they have some of the same results. I'm only interested in where they match and then trying to order by date (that's in three columns - M, D, Y). I read previous post in 9/07 but the result doesn't seem to order correctly. It does not have any rhyme or reason to the outputed results as it bounces back and forth through Oct, Nov and Dec posting and throughout all three tables. Here's my query below. Any ideas how I can get my ordering correct for all three tables to display all Oct, all Nov and all Dec?
Thanks so much
select date3, date2, date1, who, what
from
(
select date3, date2, date1, who, what from shows
union
select date3, date2, date1, who, what from shares
union
select date3, date2, date1, who, what from soiree
)
a order by date3, date2, date1

We have an app that uses triggers for auditing. Is there a way to know the order that the records were inserted or deleted? Or maybe a clearer question is.... Can the trigger figure out if it was invoked for a transaction that "inserted and then deleted" a record versus "deleted and then inserted" a record? The order of these is important to our auding.
Thanks!

I have a table that sometimes has modifications to column(s) comprising the primary key [usually "end_date"]. I need to audit changes on this table, and naturally, turned to after triggers.
The problem is that for updates, when the primary key composition changes, I'm not able to relate/join using the primary key - obviously, it no longer matches across INSERTED and DELETED. Now, for a single row update, it's easy to check for updates on PK columns and then deduce what changes were made...
So the real question is: are rows in INSERTED and DELETED always in matching order (1st row in INSERTED corresponds to the 1st row in DELETED...)?
I don't want to put a surrogate key (GUID nor IDENTITY) on the base table if at all possible. INSERT... SELECT from the inserted/deleted tables into a temp table with identity column is fine, and is what I'm currently doing; I would like MVP or product engineer level confirmation that my ordering assumption is correct.
Testing using an identity surrogate key on base table, and selecting from the Ins/del tables, and the temp tables without an order by clause seems to always return in proper order (proper for my purposes). I've tested under SQL 2005 RTM, SP1, SP2, and SP2 "3152".
FYI, I've lost the debate that such auditing is better handled by the application, not the database server...
Aside: why doesn't the ROW_NUMBER() function allow an empty OVER( ORDER BY() ) clause? Will SQL ever expose an internal row_id, at least in the pseudo tables, so we can work around this situation?
Thanks
Mike
