Table/column Dependency Check

Dec 28, 2007

Hi All,

We have a very convoluted ETL system which is pulling unnecessary data. First thought is to restrict everything so that only the columns/tables that are necessary are brought back. We have a tons of reporting stored procedures that depend on ETL tables, is there anyway we can find out which column/tables these stored procedures are using?

Thanks!

Check For Column Existance Before Alter Table Statement

Feb 14, 2000

Hello all,

I am trying to add columns to several tables in a singular database. I want to check to see if the column exists in a given table first before executing the alter table command so that I can skip that command if the column already exists, and avoid aborting my script prematurely. I can't seem to find a way to check for the column's existance. Any suggestions?

SQL Tools :: Adding Column To A Table Causes Copying Data Into Temp Table

Sep 23, 2015

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.

DB Design :: Table Partitioning Using Reference Table Data Column

Oct 7, 2015

I have a requirement of table partitioning. we have 10 years of data on a table which is 30 billion up rows on 2005 server we are upgrading it to 2014. we have to keep 7 years of data. there is no keys on table or date column. since its a huge amount of data and many users its slow down the process speed. we are thinking to do partition on 7 years for Quarterly based. but as i said there is no date column on table we have to use reference table to get date. is there a way i can do the partitioning with out adding date column on table? also does partition will make query faster? 

I have think three ways to do it.
1. leave as it is.
2. 7 years partition on one server
3. 3 years partition on server1 and 4 years partition on server2 (for 4 years is snapshot better?)

Update Table A With Data From Table B Without Specifying Every Column

Mar 25, 2008

hello all,

I don't know how to update table A with data from table B without specifying every column.
These two tables have the same fields and same structure.

I know that it's possible to do the following:

update table A

set A.name = B.name,

A.job = B.job
from table B

But I have many columns and don't want to describe every column, is that possible?

Thanks!

How To Create Key Time Column And Key Column For A Case Table And A Nested Table For Time Series Algorithm?

Jun 18, 2007

Hi, all experts here,



Thanks for your kind attention.



I want to use time series algorithm to mine data from my case table and nested table. Case table is Date table, while nested table is the fact table. E.g, I want to predict the monthly sales amount for different region (I have region table related to the fact table), how can I achieve this?

Thanks a lot and I hope it is clear for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.

With best regards,

Questions On Key Column In Case Table And Key Time Column In Nested Table Using Time Series Algorithm

Jun 4, 2007

Hi, all experts here,



Thank you very much for your kind attention.



I am confused on key column of case table and key time column of nested table by using Time Series algorithm.

In my case, the case table structure is as below:

Territory key text (the ID is actually dimrisk_key, in this case, I use the name column binding to combine the Territory column of case table Dimrisks),

While the nested table structure is as below:

Cal_month key time (in this case, actually the ID is dimdate_key, again, I used name column bining property to bind the Cal_month to the ID)

So my question is, as the key column of case table has been set to be Territory, as a result, does the model training still cover all the cases (rows) based on the ID of the table?

Also, in the nested table, as the key time column has been set to Cal_month rather than Dimdate_key of the nested table, as a result, would the single series based on the cal_month?



Hope it is clear for your advices and help.

And I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.



With best regards,



Yours sincerely,

I created a PDF that contains information from a few different tables using VB.Net(ie name, date, etc). Once the PDF is created I stored it in a new SQL table (Form_001) in the varbinary max column. My issue now is to populate the other colums in Form_001 that conatins the data from the other tables. Is it possible to populate the columns even though the names are different with data from the other tables?

Nov 12, 2012

I am trying to exclude records from a table where the ID column is the same but the Mail code Column is multi-valued.For Example: (the table looks like....)

Move Data From One Column To Another In Same Table

Sep 12, 2004

Okay, after I got everything imported, I found that a few thousand columns had "Shifted" on me. So now I am trying to "Shift them over" to where they need to be.

I did this:
INSERT INTO dbo.TABLENAME (COLUMN_NAME_TO_BE POPULATED)
SELECT COLUM_NAME_OF_INFO_TO_BE_MOVED
FROM dbo.TABLENAME
WHERE MFG = 'MANUFACTURER_NAME' AND PN LIKE '8888888888'
GO

I populated the PN column with 8888888888 to use as a reference point, and the MFG column already was populated with the correct name, so I was using those as my unique reference points.

Other columns that have the same MFG name are correct, so I have to use two unique identifiers to specify the actual data that needs to be moved.

It inserted 'NULL' in the whole table after I ran it in the Query Analyzer. It appeared to disregard the WHERE statement all together
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong here?

Is there a way to move the data from one column to the next one over by specifying other WHERE criterias?

Data In Table Entered By Column Not Row

Jul 31, 2013

I have a table where the designer allowed time reporting for 8 different types of activity on each timecard, then stored the hours by activity in 8 separate columns in the database. Example:

Table A.
Column Headers: Employee|Date|Phase1Hours|Phase2Hours, etc...
Data: Fred Jones| 7/15/13 |3|3, etc...

The problem is there is no way based on this structure to get an employee's hours for the day in columnar form.

To get this data into columnar form I have used Select queries with Union All, for instance:

SELECT Employee, Date, Phase1
FROM Table A
UNION ALL
SELECT Employee, Date, Phase2
FROM Table A
,etc.....

Query is running slow (I am guessing it is because the same table is repeatedly being accessed).
