How To: Find Cols In A Table
Jan 12, 2002I'd like to know if I can make one proc/cursor that I can pass only a table name and it will determine what cols exist in the table?
AND, what is the syntax for such a query?
I will be receiving data back where I will receive the accountID and only the deltas will have values all other columns will be null.
My proc will update an existing record, updating the specific col when an accountID exists, it will create a new record if the accountID does not exist.
I'd like to search all the cols getting their names and values when not null.
I can construct a proc for each table searching each col by known name.
However, I'd like to know if I can make one proc/cursor that I can pass only a table name and it will determine the cols?
All my tables start with cols AccountID and end with RecID with any number of cols inbetween.
TIA

How Can I Get Primary Key Col And Other Two Cols In The Same Table Become One To One Relationship.
Jun 12, 2006For ex.
Table Match_List ( MatchID, UserID_A, UserID_B)
constraints like
MatchID primary key
UserID_A <> UserID_B
unqiue index (UserID_A,UserID_B)
but I wish to exclude duplicated rows like 1,1,2 & 2,2,1,
cause UserA to UserB, and UserB to UserA are the same thing.
How can I get this?
Last GASP On Insert Row In Table With Identity Field, And Get New Identity Back ?
Jul 9, 2006While I have learned a lot from this thread I am still basically confused about the issues involved.
.I wanted to INSERT a record in a parent table, get the Identity back and use it in a child table. Seems simple.
To my knowledge, mine would be the only process running that would update these tables. I was told that there is no guarantee, because the OLEDB provider could write the second destination row before the first, that the proper parent-child relationship would be generated as expected. It was recommended that I create my own variable in memory to hold the Identity value and use that in my SSIS package.
1. A simple example SSIS .dts example illustrating the approach of using a variable for identity would be helpful.
2. Suppose I actually had two processes updating these tables, running at the same time. Then it seems the "variable" method will also have its problems. Is there a final solution other than locking the tables involved prior to updating them or doing something crazy like using a GUID for the primary key!
3. We have done the type of parent-child inserts I originally described from t-sql for years without any apparent problems. (Maybe we were just lucky.) Is the entire issue simply a t-sql one or does SSIS add a layer of complexity beyond t-sql that needs to be addressed?

Insert Row In Table With Identity Field, And Get New Identity Back
Jun 30, 2006I want to insert a new record into a table with an Identity field and return the new Identify field value back to the data stream (for later insertion as a foreign key in another table).
What is the most direct way to do this in SSIS?
TIA,
barkingdog
P.S. Or should I pass the identity value back in a variable and not make it part of the data stream?

Display Row Data As Cols
Jun 6, 2006I have data in rows that I need to aggregate and display in a columnar fashion and I haven't been able to figure out how to do it. A simplified version of the data as it is stored in the table:
Station Month Day Reading
1 1 1 100
1 1 2 200
1 1 3 300
1 2 1 400
1 2 2 500
And I would like to create a query that returns:
Station Month Day 1 Day 2 Day 3
1 1 100 200 300
1 2 400 500
Any help you can provide or tips to steer me in the right direction are much appreciated.

Query Single Col Into Several Cols Result Set
Oct 24, 2004Hello,
I have a table with 1 column containing numeric values, and I need to create a query which displays the count of values for each set of conditions. For example, if the table contains the values 1,2,3,4,5 and 6, the output of the query should look like this:
L M H
-----------------------
3 2 1
(L are values below 4, M between 4 and 5, H is 6 and above)
Any suggestions?
TIA
SQl Query... Multiple Cols To Single XML.
Oct 12, 2006Hi I have a table which has couple of name cols and 10 varchar columns. The requirement was to retain the first two cols but convert the 10 cols into a single XMl.
the table has this schema;
ManagerName varchar
UserName varchar
TextField1 Varchar
TextField2 Varchar
TextField3 Varchar
TextField4 Varchar
TextField5 Varchar
TextField6 Varchar
TextField7 Varchar
TextField8 Varchar
TextField9 Varchar
TextField10 Varchar
I wrote a query like;
SELECT
TPD.[NameId]
,CrtdUser.[UserId]
from [Olddb_DB] TPD
join
[NewDB]..[Manager]CrtdUser
on
Crtduser.managerName = TPD.ManagerName
join
[NewDB]..[Users]Users
on
Users.[loginDetail] = TPD.[UserName]
to get the cols other than the XML
/*********/
SELECT
XmlDat.[textField1],
XmlDat.[textField2],
XmlDat.[textField3],
XmlDat.[textField4],
XmlDat.[textField5],
XmlDat.[textField6],
XmlDat.[textField7],
XmlDat.[textField8],
XmlDat.[textField9],
XmlDat.[textField10],
XmlDat.[textField11],
XmlDat.[textField12]
from
[olddb_db]..[DETAIL_DEF] XmlDat,[NEWDB]..[Detail_Def]TPD
where TPD.Name = XmlDat.Name
for XML AUTO, ELEMENTS
and this query to convert all the varchar cols to a XML. Now the problem is I am not sure of how to combine both these queries to Insert into the new table.
Can someone guide me in this
the destination table looks like
Name (Varchar)
UserId (int)
UserVal_XMl (XML)
Thanks in advance

Dec 23, 2013I just created a new table with over 100 Columns and I need to populated just the first 2 columns.

column2= P_CLIENT_D

GET IDENTITY FROM TABLE
Mar 16, 2006How do i get identity from stored procedure? I CANNOT GET THE ID I CANNOT RETURN ANYTHING AT ALL! WHY?
This is last three lines of stored procedure
SELECT ID = SCOPE_IDENTITY()

I get ABSOLUTELY nothing I can't get anything to come back from by stored procedure to my ASP page. I have a "RETURN_VALUE" parameter, that's not the problem. There's something really stupid about this stored procedure that since I've inserted records into a table then from that point on I cannot return ANYTHING! WHYYYYYY???
Sorry, I am SO VERY frustrated. Can anyone help me?

The Identity Of My Table
Mar 23, 2008Hello,
I created a table with the identity column "ID". It will increase by 1 when I insert a row to the table.
However, when I wanted to publish my database with my application, I deleted all the rows in my table. At this time, I wanted the identity to begin with 1 again. Can I do it in sql server management studio or is there other ways to do it?
Thanks.

Inserting With DTS In IDENTITY Table
Oct 12, 2006Hi
I need to insert values from a text-file to a table with a primary key as identity. In the text file I have no idea of the primary key values and i get "foreign key constraint violation" when trying to import null values into the column.
How can I solve the problem? With ordinary insert-statement there is no problem since the table generates identity- key values automatically. Is there a possibility to generate identity values with DTS-import?

I am trying to create a temp table with an identity column. Here is the code that I am using...

INSERT Into Table With IDENTITY Column
Jul 31, 2001I'm sure this is a common problem but I can't find any relevant info on this site
I have a table that I would like to insert values into. I want to take the values from a secondary table using a select statement.
e.g. a simplified version...
TABLE1
(
Id INTEGER IDENTITY,
UserName VARCHAR(50),
Description VARCHAR(50)
)
TABLE 2
(
UserName VARCHAR(50),
Description VARCHAR(50)
)
Runing the insert statement
INSERT Table1 (UserName, Description)
SELECT *
FROM TABLE2
results in the error
erver: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Id', table 'CDS_Live.dbo.Table1'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
I was under the impression that an identity column would be automatically inserted by SQL server. Now I know I could write a piece of anonymous Transact SQL which declares a cursor by selecting all rows from table 2 and inserting rows into table 1 on a row by row basis, but is there any way I could do the Insert with a single INSERT statement?
thanks

How To Add Identity Property To Existing Table?
Mar 2, 2004Has anybody ever tried to do this. I can't figure it out. All I want to do is take an existing table that already has values in the column that I want to change and add the identity property to yes and set the identity seed and increment to a specific number. I know you can do it in the CREATE TABLE statement but is there a way to use the ALTER TABLE command?
