WE have a job that loads data from an Oralce DB into our SQL Server 2000 DB twice a day. The schedule has just changed so that now there is a possibility of having my west coast users impacted when it runs at 5 PM PST and my east coast users impacted when it runs at 7 AM EST. As a workaround, I have developed a DTS package that loads the data into temp tables instead of the real tables. IE. Oracle -> XTable_temp instead of Oracle -> XTable. The load sometimes takes about an hour to an hour and a half to load, so this solution works great, but I want to then lock the table, delete it and rename the temp table to table X. The pseudo code would be:
Begin Transaction
Lock Table XTable
Drop XTable
Alter Table XTable_temp rename to XTable
Release Lock XTable
End Transaction
Create XTable_temp
I see two issues with this solution. 1) I think if I can lock XTable that the lock would be released when the table is dropped and the XTable_temp was being renamed. 2) I can't find a command to rename a table.
Any ideas on a process that might help?
TIA,
A

How to prevent a stored procedure or trigger from being invalidated after renaming a table.
I used sp_rename but it does not alter the stored procs and triggers using the table ,is there any way to change all the dependent objects without manually generating the script and then changing it
In MySQL I would issue this standard(?) SQL command to rename a table:
ALTER TABLE tablename RENAME TO footable
How is this done in ANSI SQL?
Hi
I don't want to change datas in a table which I use, but want to change only the table's name with T_SQL statments.
As you know there are SPs for rename SP or view, but I can not find such SP for table.
If you know about it,
or have the another good method to rename table,
tell me please.
Thanks for reading.

Hi all.
I'm porting an application from eVB-ADOCE to VB.Net-SQL CE
In the old application there are some SQL statements like this:
"ALTER TABLE OldTable TO NewTable"
Is there an equivalent instruction or a simple way to rename a table?
I was not able to find anything simple to do the same.
I really need NOT to do something like
SELECT * INTO NewTable FROM OldTable
because the resulting table could go outside memory and/or spend too much time in elaboration.
Please let me know what I can do.
Many thanks !

hi,
Can you give the query in MS SQL Server 2005 which can be used to rename a existing table in database.
Thanks in advance,
I have a long query which I have set off and would like to stop, andrename one of the tables used.My query is due to my lack of understanding of the underlyingstructure of MSSQL-Server...So say and update updates TABLE_A and I stop it, whilst thistransaction is rolling back I attempt to rename TABLE_A to TABLE_A_OLDand rename a different table to become TABLE_A. I am assuming thatthe rollback actions will use the object reference of TABLE_A_OLD andcontinue to rollback the effects on the correct table and not corrupt'new' TABLE_A... or will it not allow me to rename TABLE_A until therollback is complete?Thanks for any help!Steve

SQL Server 2000:
Question 1
If you drop / rename a table and then recreate the table with the SAME NAME, what impact does it have on stored procedures that use these tables? From a system perspective, do you have to rebuild / recompile ALL the stored procedures that use this table?
I had a discussion with someone that said that this is a good idea, since the IDs of the tables change in sysobjects and from a SQL SERVER query plan perspective, this needs to be done...
Question 2
If you Truncate a Table as part of a BEGIN TRANSACTION, what happens if an error occurs? Will it Rollback? The theory is that it won't because Truncate doesn't utilize the logs where as Delete From uses the SQL Logs?
Thanks!

I'm working on creating a new version of an existing table. I want to keep the old table around, only with a different name. In looking this up I found there's a system routine named sp_rename, which looks like it will work fine.However in thinking about this I realized that the foreign key constraints defined on the table (there's 3 of them) are likely to not be renamed, correct?
If I'm correct, then I suppose I could rename the table, then drop the 3 foreign key constraints, and create them new using different names for those foreign key constraints.
