Mapping Fields From Two Tables
Apr 1, 2004
Hi all,
I'm not sure how easy of a task this is, or how to go about it, so I thought I'd ask here. I am doing a major overhaul to my site and am re-programming the backend which involves re-formatting my tables, table names etc.
What I want to do is set up a new table in the format I want for the new site, but still be able to have the live data that is being submitted to the site now, be entered into the new table so that I don't have to shut down the site for days to transfer and reformat data. Example
CURRENT SITE
Table 1
Field1: Name
Field2: Address
NEW SITE
Table 1
Field1: Name
Field2: myAddress
Field3: City
I want to be able to somehow map the two together so that when data is entered into the Name field on the current site, that same name is also inserted into the new site table as well. Mapping like this:
(current site)Name -> (new site)Name
(current site)Address -> (new site)myAddress
The city field would be left unaffected as that data would only be entered once the new site is up and running.
I know I could do this from a stored procedure on the exiting site or by re-writting all of my SQL to insert into both tables, but right now all of the SQL is hardcoded into the pages and I have A LOT of pages. Is there a way to map the tables together from within SQL Server?
Cheers,
Jeff

I have a script and on one of the tables I keep loosing the mapping of the last 4 fields. If I go into the task it will ask me if I want it to automatically fix it and I say yes and remap fields but when I run it it bombs and comes back and when I go back into it it tells me there is a problem with same fields. It also rearanges the order and puts these fields last.
I have tried deleting and redoing the transformation only to have the same thing happen. Almost seems like a bug in software. I have seen this before but usually when I fix it it does not return.

How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu".
can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.

We have a Item table and a Price table. Structure is mentioned below. An Item need to be matched with the Price table (or vice versa is also fine) and get the Cost from the Price table. The challenge (which I feel :) ) is, mapping or Columns to be looked up between these two tables are not fixed.For an Item, Country, City and Number of Days columns can have a value or can be null. For ex, Paper, US, New York <10 days is one combination which should be matched to the Item table. For Paper, UK, NULL, <5 days is another combination which need to be checked. it is kind of dynamic look up of columns between the two tables.
Price Table
Item Country City Number of Days Cost
Paper US New York <10 100
Paper UK <5 150
Paper Chicago >10 200
Pen China <10 250
Item Table
Item Country City Number of Days
Paper US New York 5
Paper UK London 3
Paper US Chicago 15
Pen China Shangai 5
Paper China Beijing 15
Paper US Chicago 5

Hi Friends,
I have a small problem in parameter mapping for Execute SQL Task.
I am using a delete statement with 2 conditions.
Followed by another Execute SQL Task which contains commit statement.
delete from tname where c1 = ? and c2 =?
where c1 is number(4) datatype and c2 is of varchar2(20) datatype in oracle.
The connection manager i am using is ORacle OLE DB provider.
I am passing 2 global variables i.e g_v1 of Int32 and g_v2 of String Type.
In the parameter mapping of the Executing SQL task, i am mapping these 2 variables for
c1 and c2 and changed the datatypes inside parameter mapping as Numeric for c1 and Varchar for c2.
I also set the property as ByPassPrepare = True.
When i am executing the package i getting INVALID NUMBER ERROR.
i believe the SSIS is unable to perform the implict datatype converison.
For the next run, i changed the g_v1 varible datatype to Double and also i changed the parameter mapping for c1 as Doble datatype.
This time it is working fine. I can see the Green signal for the 2 SQL Tasks.
But when i connected to Oracle check the count in the table, the data is not getting deleted.
Also,
I set the property RetainSameConnection = TRUE for oracle connection manager.
I am not able to trace this logical error.
The same is working fine in my local machine.
But i am facing the problem when i deployed the same on the client machine.
Is there any problem with parameter mapping?
What should be equialent Datatype for Oracle NUMBER datatype that should be used inside the SSIS package while declaring the global variable and
inside the parameter mapping.
Any thoughts!

Hi All,
I need to get the names of tables and fields (or atleast the fields) from a database. Is there a query I can use that will return what all the db's tables and those tables fields are?

Hi,
I have a database with approx 95 tables. I would like to get a printout of each table, the fields contained therein and the field type
(i.e the information displayed when rightclicking a table in Enterprise Manager and selecting Properties).
I have tried to use the diagram function but due to the large number of tables the diagram is very complex and would have to be printed out on a huge sheet of paper to make it legible. I have also looked at the SP_HELP stored procedure but can't seem to get the syntax correct to display properties on all tables (info on one table is no problem).
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Tim H

I am working with the article that MAK wrote on SecurityLogs http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3515886
I have completed this, but I have made some changes to the database (for normalization to 3NF purposes). I now have problems with a query.
I am trying to "Insert a new record in a table if it does not already exist in the table". To try to clarify I perform the following query:
INSERT INTO Tmp_Event
SELECT DISTINCT EventID, EventType, EventTypeName from Tmp
Which gives me the Tmp_Event table consisting of EventID's etc. (no duplicates). What I then want to do, is compare the 'Tmp_event' table and an already existing 'Event' table. These two tables are in fact identical. I would like to insert any records from 'Tmp_Event' into 'Event' if they do not already exist in 'Event'.
This query gives me all records that do not exist in 'Event'
SELECT EventID, EventType, EventTYpeName from Tmp_Event
WHERE EventID NOT IN (SELECT EventID from Event)
How can I change this query into performing an INSERT INTO Event as well?
Hope this makes sense :)

If possible, I would like to create a view using two different tables, but with the fields merged (ie. create one table from two tables). The table structures are pretty much the same. Can you do this from a singe SQL statement? Any ideas? My only alternative is creating a temp file that inserts records from both tables, but I want to avoid doing that.

For example, I have 2 tables that have very similar fields
Table 1 Table 2
ShipRpt ShipRpt
invoice invoice
total sold total sold
Is it possible to compare each of these fields and return any record that has non matching data? I would join the tables on the shipping report or invoice and only compare the total sold field. If the invoices match and the total sold is different in each table, can I just return the 1 record?

I am using a hosted MSSQL 2000 database that powers the backend of mywebsite. Website visitors interact with it via ASP pages I havedeveloped. I also have an internal FileMaker 7 database thatperiodically synchs with it via Filemaker's ODBC functionality.Several times now, I have come in one day to discover that my ASP pagesdon't work. When I look into it, one of my MSSQL tables will be missinga few fields. There is nothing in any of my code that sends an ALTERTABLE command or any other command that affects table structure. Thesedeletions of fields is totally random.The most recent example was with a table called FreeTeacherSubs. I justdiscovered today that three fields went missing:HowDidYouHearAboutYES TEXTFollowUpCallOrEmail TEXTHowMaterialsFit TEXTSuffice to say I am baffled! Has anyone ever experienced fieldsdisappearing from their tables?Kevin

Hi there,
I have a fairly generic question regarding database design.
I am working on my first database using SQL Express.
I am testing the database by inserting records into the pre defined tables.
Sometimes I forget to input text into a non null field. When
this happens it displays an error and then skips a few rows
which makes my row numbering messy. For example say I have
Row 1, Row 2 Row 3 all nicely formatted but on Row 4 I make a mistake
this row then disapears and their is gap between 3 and 5 where 4 was.
Although I am just testing, I was wondering what happens in a real
scenario if an inexperienced data input person makes a few mistakes it
makes the database numbering systems look bad. In this case
is it common to make most fields NULL to allow for admin errors??

As part of a project documentation I want to list out the fields of all the tables to say Excel to plug in a description of the field and other notes.
Is there a tool in EM that would facilitate? Or, is there a utility that would work or a SQL script? Any recommendations is greatly appreciated.

Question.I have a new table that I am adding to a script that I wrote. Thistable has 3 fields, the first 2 fields are used in the on statement asbeing = other fields in the script.The first field always has data in it, but the 2nd field is sometimesnull.So my problem is if both fields have data in them and they both matchto the data in the fields that I am linking them to, then it returnsthe 3rd field without a problem. However if the 2nd field is null thenit is returning a null for the 3rd field. I have checked and the fieldthat I am linking to is null also.So if I haveselect t1.field1, t1.field2, t2.field1, t2.field2, t2.field3from table1 t1join table2 t2on t1.field1=t2.field1 and t1.field2=t2.field2with 2 records in each tabletable1: record1: data, datarecord2: data, nulltable2: record1: data,data,datarecord2: data,null,datawhat I get from the script isrecord1: data, data,data,data,datarecord2: data,null,data,null,nullI would expectrecord2: data,null,data,null,dataI hope this makes sense, I didn't want to post the entire actual scriptas it is about 150 lines long.Thanks in advance.

I have four fields in two different tables.
ID, field1, field2 and field3 in Table 1 has value 1 or 0. Type integer.
ID, field1, field2 and field3 in table2 are text fields.
If field1 in table1 has value 1, then there should be a text value in corresponding field in table2. That is, in field1 in table2.
However, if there is value 0 in field1 in table1 there should not be any value in the corresponding field in table2.
Now it is not always so, which do that I want to make a track of which fields miss match in these two tables.
How do I list them on the smartest ways? ID links the tables.

I have a general SQL design-type question.
I want to log errors to a table. If the error is with a URL, I want to store the URL. These URLs can be very large, hundreds of characters, but I only need to store it if it causes the error, which should be very infrequent. Which is the better design:
Create a large varchar field in the log table to hold the URL, or null if the error wasn't with the URL.
Create a foreign key field in the log table to a second URL table, which has a unique ID and a large varchar, and only create a record in this table if the error is with the URL.
One concern I have with design 2 is that there could be many other fields that are infrequent. Do I create a separate table for every one?

Hello.
i have a database with 300 tables. All the data types of the fields of my tables are custom. Ex. IFGint:int and stuff like that.
I want to know how can i through a stored procedure, change in batch mode all the fields of my tables. I don't want to modify by hand everytable. It's a lot of work and i think that maybe there might be a way for this programatically.

Hi My friends
I have develop big Database System in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and my DB System content more then 30 Table and also more then 150 Stored procedure and from that stored procedures I have call my the tables
But the problem when I change the name of any table, SQL Server don’t prompt my about the stored procedure that use that table .. so I cant remember witch Stored procedure use that table
By example if I am in programming language like C# or VB.NET when I try to change any name of any class the compiles catch all the error that coming from changing the name of the class and simply I will fix the problem because the compiler help me and list all the object content the error
But in SQL Server how can I search for stored procedure that use un existing table like compiler in any programming language ??
Or is there any why to solve my problem ??
And the above problem also there when I change the filed name
And thanks with my best regards

Table TeacherCard: field ID, foreign key on table Librarians and other fields, which we don't use
Query: Select the librarian's surname, which gave the most count of books.
I know, how to resolve, when i took datas only from one table, e. g. TeacherCard
SELECT TOP 1 WITH TIES Librarians.LastName, MAX(Librarians.CountOfBooks) AS Books FROM
(SELECT L.LastName, COUNT(*) AS CountOfBooks FROM Libs L, T_Cards T
WHERE T.Id_Lib IN (SELECT L.Id)
GROUP BY L.LastName) AS Librarians
GROUP BY Librarians.LastName
ORDER BY MAX(Librarians.CountOfBooks) DESC

Hi All
I hope someone smart can help me, it would be highly appriciated.
I am developing an SQL Serverdatabase and in on of the tables I need the primary key to consist of two pieces of data.
TblOrders: OrderNum, Orderdate, ....
TblDispatchers: DispatcerID, Dispatcher, DispatcherAddress
The OrderNum field in TblOrders need to be a composite of an AutoNum-field (incrementet by 1) and the DispatcerID from the tblDispatchers.
Can this be done, and how.
Many thanks
Kind regards

Consider a situation. There is a table of submitted 'documents'. They have some attributes. There are assignments to process the things, which have a date they were created. Finally there is a price list which specifies the price according to document features and date, so that the assignment to process a document created at different time will have a different cost. In other words, there is a relation
(assignment->document.attribute(s) + assignment.date) -> pricelist.price
Creating relations has the integrity advantages: it is not possible to create an assignment, which price is not defined in the pricelist; precludes the pricelist entry removal if it is referred by any assignments.
Should a view, which combines all the foreign fields into one virtual table, be created to make establishing the reference possible?
