Hi,
Here is my scenario simplified.
tbl1
userid, secondaryid
tbl2
userID, secondaryID
tbl1 is already populated. I just want to transfer the secondary ID to tbl2 based on the userID. I don't want to store secondaryID in tbl1 anymore.
Hi all,
This is (probably) a simple question, but I'm new to SQL Server scripting.
What I want be able to do is move data from one table in a database to another table in the same database, once one of the fields (a date field) reaches a certain value.
Specifically, we are inserting rows into a table that are stamped with an insert date and an expiry date. When the expiry date is reached, we want to move the applicable row from the original table to an identically structured table.
Ideally, we want this to be a script that is run daily.
Does anyone have any ideas or examples that we could use.
Any help is much appreciated!

I imported a little over 9 million records into my database without "cleaning" the data.
I'm looking for suggestions on what would be the most efficient way to get all the fields to the correct types and to insert decimals on the fields that need them.
My only idea thus far is to make another table with the correct field types and append the data to the new table.
I need to move data from one table to another using variable percentages and business days.
Here is the basic idea:
Variables: varTable1, varTable2, varPercentage
Get varPercentage of rows of VarTable1 that have a date of "current business date -1" and place into varTable2.
In order to export data to a 3rd party provider, I build five separate tables to store the data. Every table has a different layout, except for the first four columns. They are record type, SSN, employee id and another id number.
Basically, I have to sort that data by SSN then by record type. Each employee will have multiple records.
However, that data will need to be "merged" into one table to be exported.
I have created a table that defines the first four columns, but then has one large "filler" field that will contain the rest of the data. How can I copy data from five different tables with five different layouts into one table?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve Hanzelman

Hello:
I am running on mssql 6.5, sp4. We have been trying to use EM transfer manager to move one test database on one server to another database on another server.
We are dealing with 135 tables on this database. The transfer works up until about the 80th atble and then just dies but the scheduled task says it failed and check error log. The transfer creates the tables on the destination database but only loads the data until this one table.
WE use all of the options in EM Transfer manager which are st as defaults.
THere is no one on the source or destination databases locking this table.
Other smaller databases were successfully transferred from one database on one server to the other database on the other server without any problems today and yesterday.
Has any one run across something like this?
THanks.

So I have two tables with similar columns etc, unfortunately the Insert to the History table fails. Noto sure how to format.
Source Table.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SKUCURRENT](
[UID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[SKU] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL,
[WHSELOC] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
[WEIGHT] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
I have looked far and wide and have not found anything that works to allow me to resolve this issue.
I am moving data from DB2 using the MS OLEDB Provider for DB2. The OLEDB source sees the column of data as DT_TEXT. I setup a destination to SQL Server 2005 and everything looks good until I try and run the package.
I get the error:
[OLE DB Source [277]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft DB2 OLE DB Provider" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

[OLE DB Source [277]] Error: The "output column "LIST_DATA_RCVD" (324)" failed because error code 0xC0209071 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "LIST_DATA_RCVD" (324)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: The PrimeOutput method on component "OLE DB Source" (277) returned error code 0xC0209029. The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput(). The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing.
Any suggestions on how I can get the large string data in the varchar column in DB2 into the varchar(max) column in SQL Server 2005?
Hi all, I am not over familiar with SQL, I am a VB programmer, simply I need to achieve the following within Enterprise Manager.
I have 2 tables, different designs, different number of rows, I simply need to check whether the contents of a column in the first table is in a column in the second table, just simply a table/column to table/column data check for the same data content.
Easy Peasy for you guys, any help would be appreciated.
I have a column of digits I'd like to copy into another column in thesame table. How would I do this?Thanks,Bill
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf on the source I have a new column, the script generated by SqlPackage.exe recreates the table on the background with moving the data into a temp storage. If the table is big, such approach can cause issues.
Example of the script is below: in the source project I added columns [MyColumn_LINE_1] and [MyColumn_LINE_5].
Is there any way I can make it generating an alter statement instead?
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_ms_xx_MyTable] (
[MyColumn_TYPE_CODE] CHAR (3) NOT NULL,

The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
I have a requirement of table partitioning. we have 10 years of data on a table which is 30 billion up rows on 2005 server we are upgrading it to 2014. we have to keep 7 years of data. there is no keys on table or date column. since its a huge amount of data and many users its slow down the process speed. we are thinking to do partition on 7 years for Quarterly based. but as i said there is no date column on table we have to use reference table to get date. is there a way i can do the partitioning with out adding date column on table? also does partition will make query faster?
I have think three ways to do it.
1. leave as it is.
2. 7 years partition on one server
3. 3 years partition on server1 and 4 years partition on server2 (for 4 years is snapshot better?)

I am studying indexes and keys. I have a table that has a fixed width of data to be loaded in the first column which is parsed in a view based on data types within the fixed width specifications.
Example column A:
(name phone house cost of house,zipcodecountystatecountry)
-a view will later split this large varchar string based
column b: is the source filename of the data load (varchar 256)
....
a. would there be a benefit of adding a clustered or nonclustered index (if so which/point in direction on why)
b. is there benefit of making one of these two columns a primary key (millions of records) or for adding a 3rd new column as a pk?
c. view: this parses the data in column a so it ends up looking more like "name phone house cost of house zipcode county state country" each having their own column.
-any pros/cons of adding indexes (if so which) to the view instead of the tables or both for once the data is parsed?
I am trying to create a table that holds info about a user; with the usual columns for firstName, lastName, etc.... no problem creating the table or it's columns, but how can I "restrict" the values of my State column in the 'users' table so that it only accepts values from the 'states' table?

hello all,
I don't know how to update table A with data from table B without specifying every column.
These two tables have the same fields and same structure.
I know that it's possible to do the following:
update table A
set A.name = B.name,
A.job = B.job
from table B
But I have many columns and don't want to describe every column, is that possible?
Thanks!
dear all
i have 2 tables, lets say table A and Table B
both tables has column ID
i wonder how can i find records that appears in B.ID and not appear in A.ID
what is the SQL command in this case???
Thnks alot
I created a PDF that contains information from a few different tables using VB.Net(ie name, date, etc). Once the PDF is created I stored it in a new SQL table (Form_001) in the varbinary max column. My issue now is to populate the other colums in Form_001 that conatins the data from the other tables. Is it possible to populate the columns even though the names are different with data from the other tables?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOkay, after I got everything imported, I found that a few thousand columns had "Shifted" on me. So now I am trying to "Shift them over" to where they need to be.
I did this:
INSERT INTO dbo.TABLENAME (COLUMN_NAME_TO_BE POPULATED)
SELECT COLUM_NAME_OF_INFO_TO_BE_MOVED
FROM dbo.TABLENAME
WHERE MFG = 'MANUFACTURER_NAME' AND PN LIKE '8888888888'
GO
I populated the PN column with 8888888888 to use as a reference point, and the MFG column already was populated with the correct name, so I was using those as my unique reference points.
Other columns that have the same MFG name are correct, so I have to use two unique identifiers to specify the actual data that needs to be moved.
It inserted 'NULL' in the whole table after I ran it in the Query Analyzer. It appeared to disregard the WHERE statement all together
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong here?
Is there a way to move the data from one column to the next one over by specifying other WHERE criterias?
I need to find a table and column name from some given data. I know what data i want to edit, I just need to know where it is located and the database is too big to manually go through. It is Microsoft sql server 2000. Any help is appreciated.
View 9 Replies View RelatedQuery to copy column data from one table and put it in another???
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a table where the designer allowed time reporting for 8 different types of activity on each timecard, then stored the hours by activity in 8 separate columns in the database. Example:
Table A.
Column Headers: Employee|Date|Phase1Hours|Phase2Hours, etc...
Data: Fred Jones| 7/15/13 |3|3, etc...
The problem is there is no way based on this structure to get an employee's hours for the day in columnar form.
To get this data into columnar form I have used Select queries with Union All, for instance:
SELECT Employee, Date, Phase1
FROM Table A
UNION ALL
SELECT Employee, Date, Phase2
FROM Table A
,etc.....
Query is running slow (I am guessing it is because the same table is repeatedly being accessed).

<td>@row.Most_Recent_Record2</</td>
