Can someone point me towards a resource or show me an example of a good way of writing sql statements in php.
Most statements seem so ugly and unreadable.
I have a SSIS package that I plan to deploy on my SQL Server 2008 machine.
I need to call this SSIS package remotely and synchronously from .NET. Obviously I need to pass parameters to this package as well.
How could I do that?
Thanks,
Alex
If I have a Parent and Child table in MySQL related by a foreign key, is it possible using a SQL statement to move certain rows from Parent and the related rows from Child into archive tables (e.g. Parent_Archive and Child_Archive) in an atomic manner?
Lets say there is some code that executes the following SQL query:
set rowcount n
But n is unknown. Is there any way to know what n was? I'm using Sybase.

PHP & MySQL

We have two tables:
Vehicle: Id, RegistrationNumber, LastAllocationUserName, LastAllocationDate, LastAllocationId
Allocations: Id, VehicleId, UserName, Date
What is the most efficient (easiest) way to update every row in Vehicle table with newest allocation? In SQL Server I would use UPDATE FROM and join every Vehicle with newest Allocation. Oracle doesn't have UPDATE FROM. How do you do it in Oracle?
I am making a windows service to be able to run operations on a sql server database (insert, edit, etc) and invoke Stored Procs.
However, is there a way for me to know the type of the SP? When invoking from C#, I need to knof if it is returning 1 value, or more, or none (so I can use executereader, scalar, etc)?
Thanks
Has anybody done any benchmarking/evaluation of the popular open-source embedded SQL DBs for performance, particularly write performance? I've some 1:1 comparisons for sqlite, Firebird Embedded, Derby and HSQLDB (others I am missing?) but no across the board comparisons... Also, I'd be interested in the overall developer experience for any of these (for a Java app).
I have the following table :
alertID inspectorID datelive dateread
1 none 2012-11-06 10:36:03.350 NULL
2 none 2012-11-06 10:36:25.043 NULL
3 none 2012-11-06 10:36:42.433 NULL
1 31030 2012-11-06 10:37:19.193 2012-06-11 10:34:47.000
I want to select the alerts that dont have the inspectors ID against it AND where the alert ID doenst match the one that has the inspectorID against it, ie inspector has read alert 1 so i only want it to return alerts 2 & 3
Am using Classic ASP and MS-SQL

I am going to generate XML file based on the data returned from SQL Server, but there are some special characters like  and  (there may be other characters like these), which will fail the XML.
Is there any way to escape them?
Thanks!
For what x is
The expression x IS NOT NULL is not equal to NOT(x IS NULL), as is the case in 2VL
(quote from this answer, which is quoting Fabian Pascal Practical Issues in Database Management - A Reference for the Thinking Practitioner -- near the end of that answer)
My guess is when x IS NULL is NULL, but I cannot guess when that would be (i.e. I haven't checked the SQL standard).
I tried session.createSQLQuery("ALTER TABLE People MODIFY address VARCHAR(1000);").executeUpdate();
but this throws org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute native bulk manipulation query
After a lot of googling, the recommendation is to use HQL instead of SQL query to do bulk updates. Not sure how to use HQL to accomplish this. There seems to be no decent HQL documentation for updating column length in a table.
Thanks so much for the help.
I have this sql query:
SELECT
S.SEARCH,
S.STATUS,
C.TITLE AS CategoryName,
E.SEARCH_ENGINES AS Engine,
S.RESULTS,
S.DATE,
S.TOTAL_RESULTS AS Total,
S.ID
FROM
PLD_SEARCHES AS S
Join PLD_CATEGORY AS C ON C.ID = S.CATEGORY_ID
Join PLD_SEARCH_ENGINES AS E ON S.SEARCH_ENGINES_ID = E.ID
ORDER BY S.DATE ASC
I want to identify if S.STATUS is either 1 or 0 and according to those values to return COMPLETE or PENDING in the query results
Hi,
I got used to the xml support and recursive common table expressions of sql server 2005. I am just wondering whether any free dbs like mysql support these requirements nowadays? Thanks.

My database has about 30 views, most of which have a reference to another database on this server (call it DB1).
Now, without going into the reasons why, I need to update all those views to DB2, also on the local server.
I would hate to have to do this manually on each view. Is there some SQL query I can run that will replace all occurrences of the string 'DB1' with 'DB2' in all my views?
I'm querying a view and filtering the results with a column named status. I'd like to query it so I can search for rows with different status, by using the IN operator as I'd do in SQL.
As so:
SELECT * FROM VIEW WHERE Status in ('....', '.....')
How can I achieve this?

How can I do this?
Having a bit of difficulty figuring out how to create a named_scope from this SQL query:
select * from foo where id NOT IN (select foo_id from bar) AND foo.category = ? ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1;
Category should be variable to change.
What's the most efficient way the named_scope can be written for the problem above?
hi,
i have to create window service which read the xml file and and take the node's value to connect the sql server and create the log file i have already created window application for that but i don't know how to create win services.
Here's the situation. I have a bunch of objects that implement Serializable that I want to store in a SQL database. I have two questions
Is there a way to serialize the object directly into the database
Is that the best way to do it or should I
Write the object out to a formatting String and put it in the database that way and then parse it back out
Write each member to the database with a field that is unique to each object
