Hello,
We have an .NET client app working against SQL Server 2005 (clustered), do I need to do something special in the client app to make it cluster aware?
Thanks.
I'm using LINQ2SQL and I want to compare two tables and select all rows that are missing from one tables (based upon one of the column values).
In standard SQL I would write this as:
SELECT
FirstName,
LastName,
RefId,
Email
FROM
Users_ActiveDirectory AS ADU
WHERE
NOT EXISTS
(
SELECT
U.RefId
FROM
Users AS U
WHERE
U.RefID = ADU.RefId
)
However I'm not sure how to achieve the same result using LINQ2SQL?
I have two tables:
info: ID, fee_id
and
fee: ID, amount
and a reference between them (SQL Server 2008):
ALTER TABLE info WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT FK_info_fee FOREIGN KEY(fee_id)
REFERENCES fee (ID)
ALTER TABLE info CHECK CONSTRAINT FK_info_fee
GO
How to configure this reference that way so a record in fee will be deleted if info.fee_id becomes NULL
We have developers some developers who are developing against a SQL Server 2005 database, while others are using 2008.
We just discovered that generating the edmx against a 2008 database set the ProviderManifestToken to 2008, which means some queries won't work against a 2005 database.
While this is a known issue, is there any way to set this value at run time, based on a config file?
In Plone I have a Z SQL methood:
SELECT [aapp_qtitle]
,[aapp_mtitle]
,[aapp_sdate]
,[aapp_duration]
FROM [AAPP].[dbo].[M_PageBodyElement] where [aapp_id]=<dtml-sqlvar aapp_id type=int>
How can I set the value of aapp_id in my Plone page code?
Hi
Is there any way to massively alter primary keys(uid) to all tables with no primary primary keys in sql server database ? I have a lot of tables and most of them don not have primary keys.
Thanks in advance.
There is an example for today here
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2583228/get-row-where-datetime-column-today-sql-server-noob
I am primarily interested in 2008 only. For today it looked like
SELECT (list of fields)
FROM dbo.YourTable
WHERE dateValue BETWEEN
CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE) AND DATEADD(DAY, 1, CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE))
What literal value of date(s) or functions ( I need a format ) should I place there to make it work independent of local settings.
I have a MS SQL 2008 database in 3NF.
I must check if the db can support many concurent users.
Which is the best method ?
[Is there any free tool to do this ?]
Thank you very much.
Hi,
I have a SQL table with some normal fields and one xml-type field.
I need help with formatting the xml-type field. I want to display the the information in a gridview in asp.net but i want to apply formatting to it.
Does anyone know how I need to do?
Thanks.
PS. If it's to any help, I use a linqdatasource as source to my gridview.
Hi,
Can anyone please help me?
I am having bunch of .sql files. I want to parse (validate) those files before executing them on server.
I have many online sites which parse the code. But I want to parse the code using C#.
So please can you guide. If there is any tool, dll I need to use.
I just want to parse the file and not execute it
With respect to an application that has both a web and desktop client version:
What is the best practice for the desktop client which needs access to a SQL Server?
What are the benefits of connecting to the database from the application vs using a web service?
Which one provides better security?
What type of scope would call for one vs the other (enterprise intranet vs. web app, etc)
Are there any other considerations that are necessary when choosing on platform?
Convention has it that table names should be the singular of the entity that they store attributes of.
I dislike any T-SQL that requires square brackets around names, but I have renamed a Users table to the singular, forever sentencing those using the table to sometimes have to use brackets.
My gut feel is that it is more correct to stay with the singular, but my gut feel is also that brackets indicate undesirables like column names with spaces in them etc.
Should I stay, or should I go?
Is there a way I can set up combo box in an access form to list all the available sql servers and then an associated combo box to list the related databases? Can this be done in access?
For example,
the start date = '20100530' and
the end date = '20100602'
How can I write a SQL to display the below result?
month: may, 2 days
month: June, 2 days
I would like to understand how exactly does sql count work. Is it a whole table scan that happens or is it some property of the table that is read. However I feel a table scan would be an overhead in case of huge tables with lots of records.
Hi,
I have a database (SQL server express 2008) which has a column that is defined as text. When we try to store some text which is in chinese, it is not saved. I read that the field should be ntext. I will now have to a conversion to my table to create the column as ntext.
Would I have to do anything with the collation of the database which is set to Latin?

Hi Friends,
Could anybody help me by giving some good websites that are describing about T-SQL commands. I am a new guy in this field. thanks in advance..
Is there a clean way of cloning a record in SQL that has an index(auto increment). I want to clone all the fields except the index. I currently have to enumerate every field, and use that in an insert select, and I would rather not explicitly list all of the fields, as they may change over time.
I have table and I want to swap the values from two rows. I have the rows IDs of the two rows.
Is there any query to do that? Here is an example. Before the query I have this:
row1 : 1,2,3
row2 : 5,6,7
After the swap I want this:
row1 : 5,6,7
row2 : 1,2,3
I don't want write it in .NET code because I think an SQL query is easier than that.
I have a very simple INSERT statement being executed from a PHP script running on a Linux Apache web server. I can run the query fine from within SQL Management Studio and it normally runs fine from PHP as well. However, every once in awhile I get an error message from my PHP script that the query failed and the mssql_get_last_message() function returns 'The statement has been terminated'.
What sources can cause this message to be returned from MSSQL?
Using Linq to SQL:
if(!parentlist.childlist.Contains(row1))
parentlist.childlist.Add(row1);
else
How do I update the required childlist row with row1? Each row of the child list has a unique id.
parentlist implements IEnumerable and childlist is IList.
sorry if this is a repeat, i looked around some and didnt find what i was after so here goes
SELECT * FROM trees WHERE trees.`title` LIKE '%elm%'
this works fine, but not if the tree is named Elm or ELM ect... how do i make sql case insensitive for this wild-card search?
again apologies if this is repeated.
oh, using MySql 5 on apache
Good Morning,
I have connected to my SQL Server 2005 - and have managed to list all of the databases on that server. Now I would like to run a check on each database to see if I have permission to view that database..
How would I go about this?
Many Thanks,
Joel
