Need Help To Create Tables Based On Word Doc Table
Nov 23, 2007
Hello,
I'm looking for the best solution for creating database tables based on
a Word Document with a table. I've attached part of the table from the word doc. This document is base on a template for audit reporting.
What I assume is I would need first to start of by creating two tables.
One table would consist of the fields of the horizontal upper most data e.g.
conformance, noncomformance etc. The other table would consist of the vertical fields of the word doc table, e.g. editorial, Auditee Name etc. If my assumption is correct, what primary key and foreign key would I need to have?
Can I dynamically (from a stored procedure) generatea create table script of all tables in a given database (with defaults etc)a create view script of all viewsa create function script of all functionsa create index script of all indexes.(The result will be 4 scripts)Arno de Jong,The Netherlands.
I have two tables: TestA and TestB. Both tables have 3 fields: ID,Name, and RunDate. I need to create a query which will join the twotables first on Name but then I need to match up the RunDates eventhough the RunDates won't be the same.CREATE TABLE TestA (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)CREATE TABLE TestB (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/3/2004 3:00PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:15PM')Here's a common scenario:User updates TestA data for Account 1 on 9/1/2004 at 12:00pm. Thenthe user updates TestB data for Account 1, 15 minutes later. I wantthese two records to match. The user must always update TestA databefore they update TestB data. Therefore, there might be more rows inTestA then in TestBHere's what the results should look like for the above data.Name TestA Date TestB Date---- ---------- ----------Account 1 9/1/2004 12:00pm 9/1/2004 12:15PMAccount 1 9/2/2004 1:00pm 9/2/2004 1:15PMAccount 1 9/3/2004 3:00pm (NULL)Account 2 9/5/2004 4:00pm 9/5/2004 4:15PMAny help would be much appreciated!!!!
I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely, Bryan Ax
Can someone give me a clue on this. I'm trying to insert values based off of values in another table.
I'm comparing wether two id's (non keys in the db) are the same in two fields (that is the where statement. Based on that I'm inserting into the Results table in the PledgeLastYr collumn a 'Y' (thats what I want to do -- to indicate that they have pledged over the last year).
Two questions
1. As this is set up right now I'm getting NULL values inserted into the PledgeLastYr collumn. I'm sure this is a stupid syntax problem that i'm overlooking but if someone can give me a hint that would be great.
2. How would I go about writing an If / Else statement in T-SQL so that I can have the Insert statement for both the Yes they have pledged and No they have not pledged all in one stored proc. I'm not to familar with the syntax of writing conditional statements within T-SQL as of yet, and if someone can give me some hints on how to do that it would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance, bellow is the code that I have so far:
RB
Select Results.custID, Results.PledgeLastYr From Results, PledgeInLastYear Where Results.custID = PledgeInLastYear.constIDPledgeInLastYear Insert Into Results(PledgeLastYr) Values ('Y')
I am using the following script to check existence of table in the Database and create it dynamically...
This is working when table not existed, it error-ed when the table existed...
This script i am using in the Exec Sql Task.....

What are the options to create a table of contents based on the report items in a List Control? Document Mapping works for online viewing. A table of content would make the report easier to read when it's printed.
where name comes from the info table, and number of items comes from the store table.
Query something like:
show the total number of items for all those users (in the fashion Name, Number of items)from the store table, for all those whose level=something and base=something in the auth table.
For example,
if there are 10 users whom match level=something and base=something in the auth table,
What I want displayed is: ------------------------ Name Number of Items ------------------------ user1 10 user2 15 user3 20 .... user10 30 -----------------------
which if broken up is: select name from info where aid=X select count(*) from store where aid=X ..
for all those whose base=something and level=something from auth.
I have a form to assign JOB SITES to previously created PROJECT. The JOB SITES appear in the DataList as it varies based on customer. It can be 3 to 50 JOB SITES per PROJECT. I have "PROJECT" table with all necessary fields for project information and "JOBSITES" table for job sites. I also created a new table called "PROJECTSITES" which has only 2 columns: "ProjectId" and "SiteId". What I am trying to do is to insert multiple rows into that "PROJECTSITES" table based on which checkbox was checked. The checkbox is located next to each site and I want to be able to select only the ones I need. Btw the Datalist is located inside of a formview and has it's own datasource which already distincts which JOBSITES to display. Sample: ProjectId - SiteId 1 - 5 1 - 9 1 - 16 1 - 18 1 - 20 1 - 27 1 - 31 ProjectId stays the same, only values for SiteId are being different. I hope I explaining it right. Do I have to use some sort of loop to go through the automatically populated DataList records and how do I make a multiple inserts to database table? We use SQL Server 2005 and VB for code behind. Please ask if I missed on some information. Thank you in advance.
What I need to do is merge the two tables into a single table based on the matching timestamp:
timestamp, servername1, servername2 as headers then values under "1/1/1-1:10:1" , "10" , "10" - as an example "1/1/1-1:20:1" , "20" , "21" - as an example "1/1/1-1:30:1" , "1" , "5" - as an example
Powershell or MSSQL 2008 queries work.
I have a powershell script atm that can create the table and then throw it back into the database but its very slow because of the amount of records.
The table is for some performance stat collection app.
Table #1 records a timestamp, the servername (which is the same over and over in the table) and the value of the performance object. Table #2 is the same collection but for a different server.
The layout in the database is terrible but this is what I get to work with.
I have a record in an Excel format (Excel 2010) and I would like to bulk import that into SQL Server 2008 and also while importing, SQL Server will automatically create a new table based on the header fields or row of the source file.
I am not sure if SQL Server 2008 has this capabilities.
Im trying to bring together two tables into one, but they're records dont always match, so im getting akward returned records. So now i want to combine the fields i need from these two tables to create a new one. How would that be coded.
I want to
SELECT
[Customer_Bill_Customer_No],
[Customer_Bill_Customer_No],
[Sales_Header_Order_DateTime],
[Sales_Header_Your_Reference]
from
[NavisionReplication].[dbo].[Tbl_Sales_Header]
and SELECT [Sales_Invoice_Header_No]
FROM [NavisionReplication].[dbo].[Tbl_Sales_Invoice_Header]
I know the word 'With' is a SQL Reserved; I created a SQL Script Generator that creates insert statements to copy data from one SQL Server database to another. If a row contains the word 'with' or 'With' the insert statement fails. Is there a way around this? The script is executed in the Query Analyzer window of SQL Server.
The record below is an example of a row that fails.
Insert Into [Contact] ([Active],[AddressID],[Birthday],[Birthmonth],[ContactType],[CreatedBy],[CreatedDate],[Description],[Employed],[FirstName],[HasResume],[LastName],[MiddleName],[ModifiedBy],[ModifiedDate],[Personality],[RowVersion])
Values ('False', 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, '', 'Wants to get back with Van Halen', 'False', 'David', 'False', 'Roth', 'Lee', '', '', '', '')
The error message shown is:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression or an xmlnamespaces clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
Player, Position, [From], [To], Fee, Type, ID, League, Window
I want to create a new table, EnglandFinal with all the data from the three tables although I'm guessing it would not be a good idea to copy the primary keys (ID column) as they would clash.
I have played around with CREATE and INSERT into and UNION but I get various errors. I'm sure I've done this before!
DDL and then write data using INSERT INTO ... DDL.
There are three strange things that i've encountered and will be glad to get help from anyone:
If I use as a table name expression with spaces, the name is changed to expression with underscore '_' symbol instead of spaces. I can not set trailing '$' when creating a table, but when inserting data I have to use the name with traling '$' otherwise the exception is thrown. Moreover, if i get the scheme of the Excel file later I am getting TWO tables instead of one: a first with the name without '$' and another the same with trailing '$'. Nedless to say that visually Excel shows only a name without '$' If I am trying to do same operations using OLEDB 12.0 (Office2007) I get invalid file. If anyone knows how I can overcome above issues, please write me a code. I am coding in C# but VB examples are as good as any other.
I am using VS2005 to construct a website. I have a sql database with 3 datasets. One of the table adapters is called Proudcts and has the following fields. ProductItem, Description, Price, ProductID, PackSizeI want to be able to see a summary of the products (there are thousands of them) using one or more words (or partial words) in one text box to search in only 3 fields (ProductItem, Description, ProductID, ). This needs to show only records which contain the search criteria in a gridview?This is such a basic requirement for a website, and can be found on many sites, but I haven't found how to do it.Thanks, Bri
We compulsorily use NOLOCK in our scripts on reporting DB and development generally forget putting NOLOCKS or schema names with tables.
Creating a script to search for a missing word or a phrase in SQL Server script.
Our format is <schema>.<table> <alias here> WITH NOLOCK <or alias here> or <schema>.<table> <alias here> NOLOCK <or alias here> or <schema>.<table> <alias here> (NOLOCK) <or alias here>
but generally developers write only <table> <alias>
Last year I created an online newsletter for my company using word (doc, not html) and sent it through send to: with Outlook to our staff. It worked great - however the width was always smaller than the viewable area. Not having a measurement of pixels or resolution to determine width in my layout - how do I accurately adjust my width in a word doc to adequately size to the viewable screen of my audience?
l've some excel files controlled by Vendor which changing frequently. The only thing does not change is the header name of each column.
So my question is, is there any way to create a new table based on the excel file selected including the column name in SSIS? So that l can use the data reader as source to select those columns l am interested on and start the integration.

Other than right-clicking on each individual table in SSMS and generating a CREATE script, is there a simple way to generate CREATE TABLE scripts for tables within a given database?
Background: I have a bunch of tables in one database, and I would like to add tables to a second database that have the same names and basic structures of some of the tables from the first database.
I do not need to transfer any data from the tables, this is a seperate project that will use a similar data structure. I just want to generate the CREATE TABLE scripts for 30ish tables within the first database, and then I'll tweak the scripts as appropriate and run them against the new database.
I am trying a create views that would join 2 tables:
Table 1: Has all the columns need by a view ( Name: Product Structure: ID, Attribute 1, Attribute 2, Attribute 3, Attribute 4, Attribute 5 etc Table 2: Is a lookup table that provides the names of columns Name: lookupTable Structure: tableName, ColumnName, columnValue Values: Product, Attribute1, Color Product, Attribute2, Size Product, Attribute3, Flavor Product, Attribute4, Shape
Can anyone tell me how to search an SQL database for a given key word in a textbox? I basically have a database that has a qualifications column and this column needs to be searched for the data given in the textbox. Which is the best method to search for the data? Is it a simple SQL query or an XML based search engine type? Can anyone give any suggestions regarding this? If XML is efficient then how do I use it to query my database, as I'm pretty new in XML based searching.Thanks

2 questions to ask: (1) How can I designate the Primary and Foreign Keys to these 3 dbo Tables? Should I do this "designate" thing after the 3 dbo Tables are done or during the "Importing" period? (2) How can I set up the relationships among these 3 dbo Tables?
