In a stored procedure I dynamically create a temp table by selecting the name of Applications from a regular table. Then I add a date column and add the last 12 months. See attachment.
So far so good. Now I want to update the data in columns by querying another regular table. Normally it would be something like:
UPDATE ##TempTable SET [columName] = (SELECT SUM(columName) FROM RegularTable WHERE FORMAT(RegularTable.Date,'MM/yyyy') = FORMAT(##TempMonths.x,'MM/yyyy'))
However, since I don't know what the name of the columns are at any given time, I need to do this dynamically.
how can I get the column names of a Temp table dynamically while doing an Update?
Hello,I am interested in dynamically creating temp tables using avariable in MS SQL Server 2000.For example:DECLARE @l_personsUID intselect @l_personsUID = 9842create table ##Test1table /*then the @l_personsUID */(resultset1 int)The key to the problem is that I want to use the variable@l_personsUID to name then temp table. The name of the temp tableshould be ##Test1table9842 not ##Test1table.Thanks for you help.Billy
I was wondering if anyone has an idea of how we could find the table names and column names of the tables in our Sql server database at runtime/dynamically given our connection string? Please let me know.
I have consistent column names that load into a grid view. I now need to change the names in the grid view programatically. I was originally trying to get cute with SQL to do this, but I've been told my below solution will not work and I'm better off to do this in the presentation layer. If this is true, remember I'm still wet behind the ears here...how do I do this in vs2005? Here's my post to the SQL devs to give you an idea what I'm trying to do. I have a query that grabs fields from a denormalized table. The result is column names Week1, Week2, Week3....Week26. Users want to see the actual date instead of Week#. So I have a table (lkpdatecaptions ) that contains the fields "fldfieldno" and "Fldcaption". fldfieldno Fldcaption----------- --------------11 9/07/200712 9/14/200713 9/21/2007So fieldno 11 represent week1 and so on. So my hope is to update the alias with a query like: Select fldcaption from forecast.tlkpdatecaptionswhere fldfieldno = 11That quey returns the value of 9/7/2007 and is the value I need to represent the coumn alias name.My current query looks like this:SELECT SUM(forecast.tblforecastdenormalized.fldwk01) AS WEEK1,So can I do something like the following?SELECT SUM(forecast.tblforecastdenormalized.fldwk01) AS (Select forecast.tlkpdatecaptions.fldcaption from forecast.tlkpdatecaptions where fldfieldno = 11), ...
We are using UnPivot task to convert the columns into rows using the Excel File as source. But the Excel file column names are changing frequenly sometimes its having only 4 columns sometimes its 10 columns.
Everytime we are checking and unchecking the column list in Unpivot Task.
can anybody help us to solve this issue that Unpivot task should take the column name dynamically.
it runs over night, pulls 10.5m rows. Inserts into a table, from a select (so "insert...select", rather than "select into"), from many tables, grouping on a max. It's complex. During the day, it runs fine - maybe 25 minutes. At night it *sometimes* runs fine, but then sometimes takes 4hours.Checking this morning there were 230 threads open for this one query. Checking sys.dm_os_tasks and sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks there were no other wait types on that session_id. None at all. Checking activity monitor, most of the existing threads were suspended on the insert.
There are 24 cores, but NUMA'd. We have maxdop on the server of 8. The maxdop option on the query is 12, just to speed up the select. Index and Stats refreshed daily. We've eight identical tempdb data files, on a separate spindle. Checking those, they are filling up using the round robin correctly
Would the delay be due to SQL trying to combine so many 'select' threads into one 'insert' thread (as it can't insert in parallel; 2014 can, apparently. Upgrades not available!)Should i change the SP to run the select into a temp table (table variable?) with a maxdop of 12, then do the insert into the actual table using a maxdop of 1. Checking the execution plans for a table variable implies the subtree cost comes down from 2.5m to 357k. What's best - temp table or table variable?
I am working on a dtsx package wherein i am sending the data from OLE DB Source (SQL Server) to OLE DB Destination (Oracle). For development purpose i use DEVLOPMENT environment on oracle but for unit testing i have to use QA or Some other Schema. when i use DEVELOPMENT Schema in ole db destination, tables are accessed under Schema name eg. "DEVELOPMENT"."EMPLOYEE", but when i m chenging schema name to QA table names are not changing as "QA"."EMPLOYEE". Data Flow Task is pushing the data to DEVELOPMENT environment only.
Can Anyone suggest me any remedy for it ? Or this is one more BUG in SQL Server 2005.
If 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,
[Code] ....
The same script is generated regardless the table having data or not, having a clustered or nonclustered PK.
The SP UserPersist_GetByCriteria does a "SELECT * FROM tbl_User WHERE gender = @Gender AND culture = @Culture", so why am I receiving this error when both tables have the same structure?
The error is being reported as coming from UserPersist_GetByCriteria on the "SELECT * FROM tbl_User" line.
Hi all, By using below query i can get no of tables having the give column name in a particular database, SELECT COUNT(*) AS CounterFROM syscolumnsWHERE (name = 'empno') but i want to know the table names too? any one please suggest me how to find table names too...... In other words i know the particular column name and right now i want to know the table names in which this column name exists.
I was wondering how would I get the column names from a table? Not the results just a listing of column names. What is the command to get this information? I am using MS Access, but I posted here because MS SQL is the closest thing on this forum and the syntax is usually similar.
All, is there a way of getting all table names that contain a columnname?I'm looking at a DB that has 125+ tables and I'm interested in findingall table names that contain the column order_date.How can I do it?TIA,Sashi
I created a temp table in my stored procedure and then added a new identity column to it. However, I am not able to use this new column immediately, it says column not found. SELECT * INTO #temp FROM table_name ALTER TABLE #temp ADD __Identity int IDENTITY(1,1) SELECT * FROM #temp WHERE __Identity >= 10 Here __Identity column is not found. If I just did SELECT * FROM #temp without the where clause, the final result does have the __Identity column correctly added to the table. Why can't I query it? Thanks!
I am trying to create a temp table with an identity column. Here is the code that I am using...
SELECT UserId, IDENTITY(int, 1, 1) AS colId INTO #User FROM MyUserTable WHERE UserId = 1
I am getting an error though.
Server: Msg 8108, Level 16, State 1, Line 9 Cannot add identity column, using the SELECT INTO statement, to table '#User', which already has column 'UserId' that inherits the identity property.

I wasn't sure whether or not to post this in the .NET or MsSQL forum, mods please move accordingly.
Say I have two tables: Store, and Area that have the following columns: Area: AreaID, AreaName, Description
Store: StoreID, AreaID, StoreName, Description
When I run the following query : SELECT * FROM Area, Store WHERE Area.AreaID = Store.AreaID, the following columns come back from the .NET SQLDataReader
Even though the Description fields are different there is no differentiation between which one is which (other than an integer index)
Is there a way to form the SQL query so the columns come back Area.AreaID, Area.AreaName, Area.Description etc...
I was hoping to do something like the following Select Area.* as 'Area.'.* ...
but that wasn't liked by the SQL server, any ideas?
Note: The actual tables are more complex than this, and the table names aren't static. Individually aliasing columns won't work, nor will checking the alias.
I would like to list all the column names against each record of the table and and would like to keep track whether the column is empty or nonempty. How can I write SQL query for this?
I am using the following to extract the column names of a table. I would like to do this for the whole database. Currently I am cutting the results into an excel spread. Is there a better way of doing this? Here is the query

SELECT TOP 100 text, query_plan, cp.plan_handle, qs.last_execution_time FROM sys.dm_exec_cached_plans cp CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(cp.plan_handle) CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_query_plan(cp.plan_handle) JOIN sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs ON cp.plan_handle = qs.plan_handle WHERE objtype='Adhoc'
I have below output:

I'm new to this whole trigger 'thing', so forgive me if this question has been asked and answered a few times already.
I'm in the process of writing a trigger that will send an e-mail to an application admin when any table within a given database is altered (IE, a column is added or deleted). I can get the e-mail to fire off when that happens without any issue, but I'd like to be able to let the admin know which table was tweaked and what new column was added.
Is this a relatively easy thing to do and I'm just not finding the right built-in variable name, or does something more need to be done?
I would like to use variables to set the table name and some column names of a SQL Query in a stored procedure (the variable values will come from a webpage)... something like this:ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SelectWorkHours @DayName varchar,@DayIDName varchar AS BEGINSELECT @DayName.InTime1, @DayName.OutTime1, @DayName.InTime2, @DayName.OutTime2 FROM @DayName INNER JOINWorkHours ON @DayName.@DayIDName = @DayName.@DayIDName INNER JOINEmployees ON WorkHours.WorkHoursID = Employees.WorkHoursID END RETURN ...is this possible?? if so how? Thanks
