Hi there. Does anyone know of a why to perform several operations on a table within only 1 ALTER TABLE statement? I haven't found anything to date and don't even know if it's possible.
Thanks,

I created a report where collected payments are listed by each collector from month to date.Everything Looks ok on the reporting side until a requirement came up where I am Also supposed to list the total number of payments collected by each collector (the count) and also the (total sum). If you look at the attached excel you would see two tables, I am getting the first table, 2nd is the one I want expected). How do I perform sum and count operations?
ALTER PROC USP_PaymentsByCollector
(
@CollectorName AS varchar(20) = NULL,
@CollectorCode AS varchar(20) = NULL,
@LoanID AS varchar (20) = NULL
--@StartDate AS DATETIME = NULL,

I'd like to perform a number of different operations on my Common Table expression but I seem to be limited to only one operation. For example I cannot both delete duplicate rows and then perform a select statement. I can only execute one of the statements referencing the common table expression.
What is wrong with my syntax?
;With OrderedTable
AS
(
select Row_number() OVER (partition BY SSNumber order by Department_Id desc ) AS ROWID,* from Employee

delete from OrderedTable where RowId != 1

Hi all,
Lets say that i have 3 tables, they are already related together, information on each of the 3 tables and their relationship between eachother can be found below:I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Database in Visual Web Developer 2008 using VB programming (ADO.NET)The 3 tables are as follows:
FloorRoomLocation
Fields inside each of the tables can be found below:
Floor Table(PK) ID(Required) NameDisplayOrder
Room Table(PK) ID(Required) Name(PK, FK) FloorIDExchangeIDExtensionIPDeviceNameRemarks(Required) Equipment(Required) Floor2IDFloorLocationXFloorLocationY
Location Table(PK,FK) FloorID (Required) CountryName(Required) CityName(Required) BuildingName
The Relationships between the 3 tables are as follows:
ID field in Floor table is referenced by the field named FloorID in the Room Table
ID field in Floor table is referenced by the field named FloorID in the Location table
NOTE: Location Table serves only as an extension to Floor table thus they have a 1 to 1 relationship, due to My Projects Lead's instructions I am not allowed to consolidate the Floor Table and the Location Table as 1 whole table.
Floor Table has a 1 to Many Relationship with the Room Table.
I Have already done the physical relationships between each of the 3 tables in the Database Diagram, in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition under the Database Explorer
So i have created this form to accept user input:
this form is in a aspx page called AddRooms.aspx
Country Name:______________ (data sent to location table)
City Name:_________________ (data sent to location table)
Building Name:______________ (data sent to location table)
FloorID:[This is a DropDownList which is databinded to the Floor Table]
Room Name:_______________ (data sent to room table)
*Just imagine that the above is a form to accept user input
*With a hit of a submit button all data will be sent to their respective tables in the database
Now i know that i have to JOIN tables in my database in order for my application to work, but i have no experience performing JOIN, i need great guys like you to help me apply JOIN to the 3 tables mentioned above, do let me know if you have any doubts in what i am trying to do.
Do give me that code that i can either apply in the (VB environment Visual Web Developer 2008) and/or in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 environment
Just need the SQL Statment that i will need to construct to perform the JOIN i need to.
Please Help
Many Thanks : )
Hi guys,
If I have a temporary table called #CTE
With the columns
[Account]
[Name]
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
and I need to change the column type for the columns:
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
to integer, and set the column [RowID Table Level] as Identity (index) starting from 1, incrementing 1 each time.
What will be the right syntax using SQL SERVER 2000?
I am trying to solve the question in the link below:

I am trying to perform a query in SQL that will merge the contents of various table, using search criteria to narrow down the results. All of the tables have the exact same fields, and the search criteria is the same for all of them. What I am looking for is the most efficient way to perform this. I am using SQL stored procedures, and passing the results into my code. Note that in my real-world scenario there are more than three tables.
1) Merge all the tables into one and then perform the search criteria:
SELECT a, b, c FROM
(SELECT a, b, c FROM Table1
UNION ALL
SELECT a, b, c FROM Table2
UNION ALL
SELECT a, b, c FROM Table3) AS MY_MERGE
WHERE {SEARCH CRITERIA}
2) Perform the search criteria on each table and merge the results
SELECT a, b, c FROM
(SELECT a, b, c FROM Table1 WHERE {SEARCH CRITERIA}
UNION ALL
SELECT a, b, c FROM Table2 WHERE {SEARCH CRITERIA}
UNION ALL
SELECT a, b, c FROM Table3 AS MY_MERGE WHERE {SEARCH CRITERIA})
Here is the data:
ProjectId
Stage
StateStatus
ProjectId
ProjectName
StartDate
P1
S1
Completed
P1
P1Name
31/12/2015
[Code] ...
I want with PowerPivot to tell what stage is in progress for project. I looked at RElatedTable, LOOKUPVALUES, but I can't find a way to associate this to get working. I got however the one telling me which projects are Completed.
Result shall be:
ProjectName StageinProgess

we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage" table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have contract table which has built in foreign key constrains. How can I alter this table for delete/ update cascade without recreating the table so whenever studentId/ contactId is modified, the change is effected to the contract table.

Contract table DDL is

AGE INT
);
CREATE TABLE score(

SCORE INT,
FOREIGN KEY(ID) REFERENCES student(ID)

For the length of Column ID is not enough, So I want to alter its length.The alter statement is:
ALTER TABLE student ALTER COLUMN ID CHAR(20)
For the table student is referenced by table score, the alter statement can not alter the column of the table student, and the SQL Server DBMS give the errors.
But, I can manually alter the length of the column ID in SQL SERVER Management Studio. How to alter column length of the master table(student) along with the slave table(score)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedA customer wants to implement table partitioning on a replicated table.
They want to hold 13 months of data in the table and roll off the earliest/oldest month to an identical archive table. The table has a date field and partitioning by month makes sense all around.
So SWITCH PARTITION is the obvious solution to this, except for the fact that the table is replicated (transactional w/no subscriber updates).
What are his architectural or practical solutions to using table partitioning and replication?

Is there anyway to Insert a new column between two existing columns without creating a new table?

Hi,
is it possible to override the system when adjusting
columns. i.e. a system override setting.
For instance if I've got a column that is indexed and I
want to adjust it from varchar(50) to varchar(51) it lets
me. But if I then try and adjust the column to varchar
(49) I get the error below:
Server: Msg 5074, Level 16, State 8, Line 1
The index 'LastName' is dependent on column 'lastname'.
Server: Msg 4922, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN lastname failed because one or
more objects access this column.
I asked this question on another Forum and was told I had to drop the index first. Just thought I'd ask for a second opinion.
Thanks for the help.

Hi to all!
I have a silly problem, but I'm not able to solve it!
I know how to add a field in a table via Enterprise manager and I know also via ALTER TABLE command.
...But the problem is: I want to add a field NOT in the last position, but on the middle (for istance)
So, this is possible via Enterprise Manager but with the ALTER TABLE command? How can I add a field without put it in the last position?
...Thanks a lot!

p.s.: Sorry for my poor english..I hope you understand my question!
hello,
i am trying to add a column to every table in a database, if it (doesn't already exist), with the following code:
declare @name varchar(50)
declare c cursor for select name from sys.tables
open c
fetch next from c into @name
while @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
begin
if( (select count(*) from sys.columns
WHERE object_id IN (SELECT object_id FROM sys.tables WHERE name = @name )
and name='ins_id') = 0 )
begin
alter table @name add ins_id int
end
fetch next from c into @name
end
close c
deallocate c
and when i run the script i get the error message
Incorrect syntax near '@name'.
reffering to the alter table statement
So, my question is, how can i actually perform the alter table in this case?
thank you

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to insert some new rows in the table tbl_3, but the problem is that I don't know how to go along with the ID column. I want to insert new rows so that it gets appended at the end and new ID is automatically generated.
Looks like this had to be done while creating the table. The original table has the id assigned as 'Identity', but I have imported this table to my database and now it does not show that property in the ID column.
The Insert code that I am using is as follows and the tbl_3 has same no. of columns except it also has id.
Can I alter table without touching the previous IDs? The ids start at 28118 and ends at 28300.
Code Snippet
INSERT INTO [dbo].[tbl_3]
(3_name
,3_sort
,3_active
,3_display

GETDATE()
from dbo._MANUFACTURERS where upper(_MANUFACTURERNAME) not in (
select Upper(3_name) from dbo.tbl_3 join
dbo._MANUFACTURERS on Upper(3_name) = Upper(_MANUFACTURERNAME))
And the error it is returning to me is
Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
Cannot insert the value NULL into column '3_id', table '.dbo.tbl_3'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
hi,
i have table having just two columns. One of columns is defines as nchar(5).
Want to alter table like
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TestTable] ALTER COLUMN [Something] [nchar] (2)
COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL
GO
?
This script runs without problem till i have no data in table. When i add one row, this script fails with
Msg 8152, Level 16, State 13, Line 1
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
When i change the table in design mode, it says that data will be truncated and do the change (with truncating).
So is there any possibility (a switch or whatever) to update this table by script with letting engine truncate data?
Thanks for any response
