Query A SQL Server Compact Table While Querying A SQL 2005 Server Table
May 21, 2008
Hi there,
I'm trying to run a query on a SQL Server 2005 table which has a WHERE clause that requires a query from my SQL Compact table.
SELECT * from RemoteDB.TESTDB.dbo.Objects
WHERE Last_Updated > '2008-05-21 10:51:00'
AND Object_PARENT IN (select Object_CODE from LocalDB.PDADB.dbo.Objects)
Basicallly on a linked system, this query would find all new objects in my main database where the same objects exist in my local database. This would work just perfectly, no problems.
Now, the local database is actually on a PDA running SQL Server Compact Edition. There is currently no support for creating a linked environment. I have the option of pulling the table off the local db and pushing it to the remote db and then running the above query from within the single db and then retrieving the list of new entries and pulling them down to the local db but that is a HUGE amount of bandwidth, even if I just used the single primary key column.
Would anyone maybe have a little advice for me on how I could possibly achieve the above result on SQL Server Compact please?
We have been using Sql Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.1 RDA synchronization method successfully on Sql Server 2000 database. Recently we moved the database to Sql Server 2005, sync doesn't work anymore, it just hangs on one table. On further investigation, we found out that it's the index on that table that causes this. We removed the index, it works fine. We are wondering the root cause, removing the index is not a solution for us. Any thoughts?. Thanks.
I have a table (we will cal DateTable) with several (20) columns, each being a date type. Another table's (Project) PK is referenced in the DateTable.
I am trying to write a query that will pull all dates for a specific project from the DateTable if they meet certain criteria(i.e. if the date is <= 7 days from now.
I started with a normal select statement selecting each column with a join to the project and then a where clause using
(DateTable.ColumnName BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE()) OR (DateTable.ColumnName BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE())) ...
The rest of the columns(all with OR between them).
The problem with this is that because I am using OR once one of the dates meets the criteria it selects all the dates that are associated with the project. I ONLY want the dates that meet the criteria and don't care about the rest.
Obviously because I have all the columns in the select statement... So I need something like
Select ALL Columns from DateTable d Join Project p where p.ProjectID = d.ProjectID AND only dates BETWEEN GETDATE() AND DATEADD(day, 7, GETDATE()))
I'm fairly new to SQL and am just setting up a Windows 8 app using an Azure SQL server. The issue I have is looking up a part number supersession and getting the latest number. One part number can have multiple supersessions (ie RTC5756 > STC8572 > STC3765 > STC9150 > STC9191 > SFP500160 ).The data I am supplied monthly has both the superseeded items and the supersession information in both columns and is not easy to decipher - for example:
The newest part number is kept in a separate table - called "source" - which in this instance is SFP500160. I need access to the latest part number but also to the part's previous numbers, due to the fact that some people may still be stocking them as an old part number and for them to search by. Is there an easy and efficient way of doing both a lookup for the supersessions and a join on the two tables to minimize the queries on the database?
I am setting up extended events more or less just fine, however I am a bit confused as to how to read and load them into a table for querying. In particular the offset part - is there a way to load just a given dates worth in?
I've got the files configured to be 20MB before rolling over, the XE is running all the time.
So if i load in the full file now, say that covers 2.5 days worth, when I load it again tomorrow to get the updated data I'm also reloading today, which is a waste?
I presume I am going about this wrong, but lack an example that really goes into detail of practicalities of loading this data.
I need help with a query, and I haven't seen anything like this in a SQL book.
I will use the Northwind database for this example. The tables I am using are Products, Order_Detail, and Orders. There is a many to many relationship between Products and Orders, that is resolved by the Order_Detail table. Suppose I want to find out which products are related to each order. How would I query the tables?
New to SQL Server Compact Edition and I am getting my feet wet with the following tutorial: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdntv/episode.aspx?xml=episodes/en/20060831MobileRB/manifest.xml
I follow the tutorial exactly, but the data I edit through the Edit Dialog Form is not saved to the SQL Server table even though all of the edits appear in the datagrid. They never make it back into the table.
After deleting all the test data from all tables in a SQL 2000 database, is there a way to reset all the auto-incrementing fields back to zero in one shot? In Access, you can run the Compact and Repair option. Also, in Sybase SQL, there was an "unload/reload" option to reduce the database size. Is there a similar function in SQL2000? Thanks for all the help
Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums
Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.
The query:
INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue ) SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue FROM Colors_Access;
Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.
There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.
I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.
Hopefully I am posting this question in the correct forum. I am still learning about SQL 2005. Here is my issue. I have an access db that I archive weekly into and SQL server table. I have used the dst wizard to create an import job and initally that worked fine. field I have as the primary key in the access db cannot be the primary key in the sql table since I archive weekly and that primary key field will be imported several time over. I overcame this initally by not having a primary key in the sql table. This table is strictly for reference. However, now I need to setup a unique field for each of the records in the sql table. What I have done so far is create a recordID field in the sql table that is an int and set as yes to Identify (auotnumber). That worked great and created unique id for all existing records. The problem now is on the import. When I try to import the access table i am getting an error because of the extra field in the sql table, and the error is saying cannot import null value into this field. So... my final question is how can I import the access table into the sql table with one extra field which is the autonumber unique field? Thanks a bunch for any asistance.
To avoid locking/blocking, or in transaction scope, we are trying make a common practice of writing coide for update commands in our all SPs based on primary key columns in where clause. I have a following scenario...
UPDATE [dbo].[TL_CST_Locker_Issuance] SET [isActive] = 0 WHERE LockerIssuanceId IN (SELECT LockerIssuanceId
[Code] ...
What is the better approach and should be followed to avoid locks and gain performance or best approach.
I am trying to run a UNION ALL query in SQL SERVER 2014 on multiple large CSV files - the result of which i want to get into a table in SQL Server. below is the query which works in MSAccess but not on SQL Server 2014:
SELECT * INTO tbl_ALLCOMBINED FROM OPENROWSET ( 'Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0' , 'Text;Database=D:DownloadsCSV;HDR=YES', 'SELECT t.*, (substring(t.[week],3,4))*1 as iYEAR, ''SPAIN'' as [sCOUNTRY], ''EURO'' as [sCHAR],
[Code] ....
What i need is:
1] to create the resultant tbl_ALLCOMBINED table
2] transform this table using PIVOT command with following transformation as shown below:
PAGEFIELD: set on Level = 'Item' COLUMNFIELD: Sale_Week (showing 1 to 52 numbers for columns) ROWFIELD: sCOUNTRY, sCHAR, CATEGORY, MANUFACTURER, BRAND, DESCRIPTION, EAN (in this order) DATAFIELD: 'Sale Value with Innovation'
3] Can the transformed form show columnfields >255 columns i.e. if i want to show all KPI values in datafield?
P.S: the CSV's contain the same number of columns and datatype but the columns are >100, so i dont think it will be feasible to use a stored proc to create a table specifying that number of columns.
I have a question about a problem that I cannot seem to tackle. I have installed the following programs on Windows Vista:
- SQL Server 2005 - Visual Studio 2008 - SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 - SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 Server Tools
I want to do the following:
1. I want to create a SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 database in the SQL Server Management Studio 2. I want my SQL Express server in SQL Server 2005 to be a distributor and publisher
About 1. In SQL Server Management Studio I cannot choose SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 . ABout 2. I tried to setup my server to be a distrubutor by running a stored procedure with the following name: sp_adddistributor. I get the following error: This edition of SQL Server cannot act as a Publisher or Distributor for replication.
I am using SQL Express 2005 server and sql compact edition for my PDA. For synchronization, which SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Server Tools installation package do I use?
Is it Sqlce30setupen.msi or sql2kensp4.msi or sql2kensp3a.msi? I know for sql server 2005 its Sqlce30setupen.msi. Is it the same for the SQL Express 2005?
I am very new to SQL Compact. I am trying to create one database which can work on the desktop application and also on a pda application. I want to create the database but I am unable to start without Management Studio. Can you guide me to the right tools so that I can create database, view it and manage it use something like Management Studio Express.
Also one more question is if my database needs to be at both places on the desktop and on pda how can i synchronise them. PDA will take using c# application data from RFID scans and then i need to sync that database on the desktop so that reports and other info can be generated from the desktop c# application. How to do this?
Please can you guide me to any webcasts or labs so i can clarify my doubts about the design.
Is there a way to use SSIS to copy data from a SQLServer CE database to a SQL Server 2005 database?
I have a database that has only been used on a mobile device, but now I want to use it among several devices, so I want to copy the structure and data to a SQL Server 2005 database and expand it's scope.
Hello, I am a SQL novice and I installed SQL Server Compact 3.5 and wanted SQL Server 2005 Express instead. I uninstalled the Compact version, but when I try to install Express, it still just installs the regular SQL Server 2005 Configuration tools. I have went so far as to uninstall all my Visual Studio Express apps and SDKs and even the .NET 3.5 framework, but it WILL NOT install the SQL Server 2005 Express. I am running 32-bit Windows Vista Home edition.
Can I run queries against a SQL DB that is running on SQL Server 2005 Enterprise from the Express edition? I just need to get the info in a table. I have been told I have windows authentication to the DB, but the DB does not show up in my Express' list of networked severs.
Your help is appreciated. I have only worked with MySQL so this is all new to me.
Hello, How are you? I have a problem when I try to create a new connection with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from Visual Studio 2005 IDE. When I€™m going to choose the data source, the SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition provider doesn€™t appear in the list. I installed the SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from this page http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=%2085E0C3CE-3FA1-453A-8CE9-AF6CA20946C3&displaylang=en. In the additional information says by installing SQLServerCE31-EN.msi installs the provider (System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll) in the GAC (global assembly cache) and registers the OLEDB provider (sqlceoledb30.dll). So, I don€™t understand why couldn€™t I create a new connection with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from Visual Studio 2005 IDE?
I was wondering if it is possible to continuously query a real-timedatastream using SQL Server. Does anyone have any experience of this? Ihave found LINUX based systems such as Borealis and STREAM. I wouldprefer to use a Windows based system as the program using the queryresults is Windows based.
Been following a video from Jim Wilson on merge replication between sql server 2005 and compact 3.5. The problem I have is that in the video, the subscriber types say SQL Server Compact, but on my 2005 server it says SQL Server Mobile. I have installed all the parts of Compact 3.5, so how do I get 2005 to use Compact and not Mobile?
I am using SQL Server 2005 and trying to create a linked server on Oracle 10. I used the commands below: EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'test1', @srvproduct = 'Oracle', @provider = 'MSDAORA', @datasrc = 'testsource' exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = 'test1', @useself = 'false', @rmtuser='sp', @rmtpassword='sp'
When I execute select * from test1...COUNTRY I get the error. "The OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "...." does not contain the table "COUNTRY". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table." The 'sp' user I am connecting is the owner of the table. What could be the problem ? Thanks a lot.
I would like some clarification regarding the specifications of SQL Server Compact Edition 2005 :
1)Is it required that .NET be installed in teh clinet for redistribution? 2)Will the database work even with the client not having any server (with IIS) to interact with ? 3)Does the database runs on 64 bit systems with the same binaries provided for 32 bit?
I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual (empno, accrued_vacation, accrued_sick_effective_date, accrued_sick, import_date)
End Sub this code worked well. we know sql7 is not compatiable with vista. please tell us how to connect it wiith sql2005 . we downloaded orcas express edition beta. we created a database also. please let u know how to connect with Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 (.NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5).
we've got a SQL Server 2005 which replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.5. Every 10 to 20 synchronisations we're getting the error mentioned above. A Soft reset of the device helps to make the synchronization working again.
Why is this error happening and how can we resolve this?
BTW, we've also running system that replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.0 without having this problems.
I want to write query to implement paging in sql server ce 3.0. But it seems it does not support TOP or LIMIT keyword. Can someone suggest alternative way to write a custom paging query in sql server ce 3.0.
Is there any way to deploy reports to a Report Manager in SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 if the reports query SQL Server 2000 databases? Or are only 2005 databases able to deploy to the web?
Also, if I have a report that queries both, can I deploy it to the web on the 2005 Report Manager with a linked server to the 2000 server?
An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
