Is There A Way To Simply Programticly Create A SQL Server Table And All The Fields?

Mar 26, 2008

I am developing a asp.net app and I have a long, very long list of data fields.

The values of the data fields have to be saved to a SQL database. The list is so long that it a pain in the ass to have to write all the code even to declare an object and all its properties by hand. So...

I made a list of all the field names and types and load it all up in an array. Then I wrote a bunch of macros to write all the properties one by one with the corredt type for the object I needed to create instead of doing it all one by one by hand.

I want to do the same thing with the Database. I dont want to have to hand define all the fiedls 1 by 1 by hand in the IDE. I want to write a simple macro, a loop theat loops thru my array and creates a field with the field name and type that it says in the array.

Simple enough.. Now I have the table defined already since that was simple enough. It is the 200 ++ fields that I dont wanna do.

So, please what is the code I need (in VB) to create 1 simple field in an existing table. Say the table is called "Table1" in the database "Database1" and the field I want is to be called "Field1" and to be 250 chr string..... ???

 Thank you Marc

How To: Create A Table That Only Allows NULL Fields To Be Updated.

Feb 26, 2008

I need to create a table that only allows fields to be updated if the field value is NULL. Is there anyway to configure a table in this manner?

In the example below the record will be created with a serial number and verification ready flag set to true. Other processes down stream will update the remaining fields as needed but should not update fields that have already been initialized.

Table Definition

USE [DB_AUTOMATED_PACKAGING_SYSTEM]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TBL_LABEL_VERIFICATION](
[SerialNumber] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[VerificationReady] [int] NOT NULL,
[VoidLabelImage] [image] NULL,
[VerifiedBy] [varchar](50) NULL,
[VerifiedDate] [datetime] NULL,
[Verified] [int] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_TBL_LABEL_VERIFICATION] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[SerialNumber] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]

GO

Very Simple Question: Cannot Create Table With Identity Fields Using SQL Sentences

Jan 26, 2007

Hi, I'm trying to build a several tables using sql ce 3.1
I refer to the manual on Create Table:
ms-help://MS.SSCE.v31.EN/ssmprog3/html/143cad25-5c1d-4c96-bd8b-6a95dbfb1b00.htm

The sample:
CREATE TABLE MyCustomers (CustID int IDENTITY (100,1) PRIMARY KEY,
CompanyName nvarchar (50))

just simply doesn't work displaying this error:

SQL Execution Error
Executed statement: CREATE TABLE MyCustomers (CustID int IDENTITY (100,1) PRIMARY KEY,
CompanyName nvarchar (50))

Error Source: SQL Server Compact Edition ADO.Net Data Provider
Error Message: There was an error parsing the query. [Token line number =1,
Token line offset 40, Token in error=IDENTITY]


I tested against a SQL Desktop, everything is OK.
What's wrong with the sentence?
Please some advise or workaround will be appreciated
Thanks

SQL Server Query, Are You Able To Bunch Together Child Table Fields.

May 24, 2008

Hi all,

I'm using SQL Server 2005 along side Visual Studio 2005, using VB to create a web application at work.
Now I'd like to bunch together some child fields in a gridview when displayed. Have a look at the attached pic to show what I would like.

Is this possible via a query or would I need to set something up on the gridview to do this?

Cheers,

SQL Server 2008 :: Percentage Of Fields Used In A Table - Query?

Oct 28, 2015

I have tableX with columns colA, colB, colC, colD and there are 2256 rows in the tableX.

I would like to find out the percentages of colA, colB, colC, colD that hold data (where it is not an empty string or NULL value).

So out of 2256 rows in the table, the user has stored data in colA 1987 times, colB 2250 times, colC 2256 times and colD 17 times.

So the report would say:

colA: 88.07%
colB: 99.73%
colC: 100%
colD: 0.01%

We have an application that has a bunch of fields that we believe are not being used and would like to remove them, but we need to prove this by looking at the data.

I know I could run a query, one at a time and change the column name, but this would take a long time as there are a lot of columns in this table. I am hoping there is some way to do this in one query.

Missing Fields In MSmerge_history Table Under SQL Server 2005

Sep 5, 2006

Hi,

I have a query that uses the following fields from MSmerge_history:

MSmerge_history.start_time, MSmerge_history.runstatus and MSmerge_history.duration

Below is the query that I am using:

SELECT

MSmerge_agents.subscriber_name AS SubscriberName,

MSmerge_history.start_time AS SyncTime,

MSmerge_history.runstatus AS SyncStatusID,

MSmerge_history.comments AS Comments,

MSmerge_history.duration AS Duration

FROM distribution.dbo.MSmerge_agents MSmerge_agents INNER JOIN distribution.dbo.MSmerge_history MSmerge_history

ON MSmerge_agents.id = MSmerge_history.agent_id

WHERE MSmerge_history.runstatus IN (2, 6) AND publisher_db = DB_NAME()

AND MSmerge_agents.subscriber_name + CONVERT(nvarchar, MSmerge_history.start_time) NOT IN

(SELECT SubscriberName + CONVERT(nvarchar, SyncTime) FROM SyncActivities)

My query runs fine under SQL Server 2000 but when I run it in SQL Server 2005, it doesn't work any more. Looking at MSmerge_history table under SQL Server 2005, this fields have been removed. Does anyone know where I can access those fields? Is it in another table?

thanks

Using LIKE To Find Any Of Fields In One Table In Fields Of Another

Jul 31, 2013

I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).

Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.

SQL Server 2014 :: Find Multiple Entries In Two Fields One Table?

SQL Server 2014 :: Alter Table Add 2 Fields Takes Too Long

Sep 25, 2015

We have a proc that adds some fields to a few tables of ours and normally there are no issues. For one of our client databases this process is taking anywhere from 5-10 minutes to add the fields. This causes an issue where the app will timeout waiting. After plugging around and looking at the proc and trying different items i found it to only be for this one database and ONLY when there is data in the table. If i truncate the table and run the same procedure everything is fine. Tables all have same index on 4 columns and the columns being added are not indexed because of the stupid hoops we have to jump thru to pre-pivot data for our reporting package.

i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?

--create the procedure and insert into the temp table without creating it.
--no compilation error.
CREATE PROC testTemp

ODBC, ADP, Or Simply The VB Route.

Jun 8, 2004

Hello All,

I have an application running off an Access database. Im trying to convert the application to a server-client architecture and thus moving everything to SQL Server 2000.
I have read alot of articles about ways to accomplish that but I've still yet to decide on which approach is the best (best as in robust and scalable).

I pretty much eliminated the ODBC route due to all the layers of translation a request has to go through to reach SQL Server, although this route seems to be the quickes to accomplish.

Mind you I have plenty of time on hand and am willing to re-write the whole thing from scratch if it means a better app.

Now should I go the ADP route and keep Access as the user interface or should I rebuild the whole front End in pure Visual Basic that interacts with SQL Server? Im leaning towards the latter solution.

I haven't read any articles talking about rebuilding the whole app. using VB and SQL Server instead of just using ADP. Why so and which solution do you think is a better solution for a client-server architecture??

Thanks in advance for any replies to my questions.

Can't Create A Foreign Key Using Non_primary Key Fields

Aug 9, 2004

Howdy all !
I'm just a bit on the frustrated side cause I want to create a foreign key but SQL Server won't let me. :(

I have table A with a primary key of main_id
I have table B with a primary key of another_id

Table A has a corresponding field called another_id.

I'm trying to create a foreign key between Table A & Table B on another_id but since it's not the Primary Key in Table A I get the following error:

There are no primary or candidate keys in the referenced table 'A' that match the referencing column list in the foreign key 'fk_classB_classA'.

Am I missing something totally obvious here? Why should I have to create a foreign key on a primary key?

What I find interesting is that I can create the relationship from enterprise manager but when I script it out is when I run into problems.

Here's the script I'm using:

Begin Code

alter table B add
constraint fk_classB_classA foreign key
(classB) references A (classB)
on delete no action
on update no action

End Code

Any help is greatly appreciated.
