thanks for answering me
actually I found out how to do that in msdn
the command which enables you to insert farsi(or any right to left languages) is:
INSERT INTO tablename(columnnames) VALUES(N'' ,)
like :
INSERT INTO Employees(FirstName, LastName) VALUES(N'شاهين',N'معصومي')
and the data type must be nvarchar
thanx

If you want to insert unicode text into text fields you need to make sure your fields are nvarchar, instead of varchar.

hi there,
i set identity specification to an column of my table with increament of 1
but i have a little problem
for example i have 4 rows in that table like this
1, ...., ......
2, ...., ......
3, ...., ......
4, ...., ......
and if delete 2 and 3 then when i reopen table it shows
1, ...., ......
4, ...., ......
and it must show like this
but i want to rearrange it, so is there any "sp" or any function in sql that
can do it? so that i can look like
1, ...., ......
2, ...., ......
thanks

For what purpose do you want to rearrange it. This is an expensive operation and if you want to hurt the performance of your SQL Server everytime you delete a row then go right ahead and renumber everything causing the relevant indexes to update, all foreign keys will need to be updated also (but you have to manage that) and so on. I would bet that it would take a lot of effort to do that correctly and the potential for getting it wrong somewhere is great.
So, unless you have an exceptionally good reason for renumbering your primary key* like that I'd suggest that you just ignore the "holes" in the number sequencing.
Well, I say primary key, although you didn't. I'm just assuming it is the primary key because identity columns are normally used as the primary key.

Well, if you really can't sleep at night because of holes in your identity sequence, then you can manually assign IDs to new records (although this might require turning off your sequencer, or removing the "IDENTITY" attribute, then re-initializing it afterward) and use-up those holes.
Some months back, someone much smarter than I (Michael Potter[^]) suggested something similar to the following to find holes within a sequence.
SELECT TOP 1 Missing.ID
FROM (SELECT (ID - 1) AS ID
FROM tblMyTable
WHERE ID > @startnum
ORDER BY ID) AS Missing
LEFT JOIN (SELECT ID
FROM tblMyTable
ORDER BY ID) AS Includes
ON Missing.ID = Includes.ID
WHERE Includes.ID IS NULL;
You could just turn off your sequence entirely, and use the return from the above when it is not null, then when it does return null, use the following.
SELECT MAX(ID)+1 FROM myTable;
However, there are issues with not using the DB provided sequencer. For example, you'll have to make sure concurrency works correctly. This may involve locking tables, etc.

i think i wont need sequencer because i got a trick from your last sql query
thanks man it may solve my problem

If this is a real project (and not a homework assignment), then I strongly suggest you re-read what Colin wrote. He is absolutely correct. Performance aside, a real problem with renumbering keys is making sure you GET IT ALL CORRECT (all the other tables that reference this key must also change). My previous post really dealt with adding new records to a table with holes in the identity field; not with RE-NUMBERING existing records.
EXERCISE CAUTION, and unless really necessary, follow Colin's advice and just live with the holes.
Good luck.

yeah i m still following Colin's advice.... but i just wanted to know that is there any inbuilt function or any sp in sql that can re-numbering... and i found no
so now, i can live with holes, but whenever i see my table with holes i get frustrated and think this isnt a good way to live with holes
one more question i have that is :
sql have any sp or function that can return the index of the numered rows ?
for example:
5,.....,........
8,.....,........
10,.....,........
i wanna know the index of 8 that mean it should return 1 (0 based index)
for 10 it should return 2
i dont think it will be, but just wanna know
thanks for keep repling

SQL databases don't have any concept of "intrinsic ordering". To the DBM, the example records you listed are just data -- they are not "record[0], record[1], record[2]". The DBM has no concept that "5,.....,........." is before "8,.....,........." is before "10,.....,........" etc.
You can specify the order in which records are PRESENTED TO YOU in response to your query by appending an "ORDER BY" clause. Further, some DBMs (or maybe all of them) can have a "clustered index" on a table. This index relates to the natural storage order of records within the database, but is more of an internal book-keeping thing than an exposed property for you to attempt to use. ANY field (even if it is not indexed) can have an ORDER BY clause attached to it within a query, and the order in which the records are returned will change in response to the clause.
The only reason you should be thinking about intrinsic ordering is if you are really concerned about performance, and are attempting to manually manipulate the clustered index (usually by properly selecting the primary key). Even then, you need to clearly understand the distinction between a database index, and intrinsic order. SQL databases store and use indices: NOT intrinsic order.
Again, good luck.

hey man at last i got a bit that what i wanted, a single line of 5 words can do that
yeyeyeye
however it wont rearrange but it can fills holes when new data insert
DBCC CHECKIDENT ("TeacherSubject", RESEED, 0)

Thanks for sharing it.
What language is that anyway? SQLServer? Oracle? I don't recognize CHECKIDENT() as a native SQL keyword. What exactly does CHECKIDENT() do?

i think it nothing do more than reseeding the identity, firstly i thought it will solve my problem but it solved my half problem not full
yeah its sql server language

Try adding:
PRINT @Ex
so that you can be sure of the SQL string that you are building up.

I think you should launch sp_executesql by providing a value for @serial
Ex :
Execute sp_executesql @Ex,@Par,@serial=0
But I don't get the point of your SP, maybe should @serial be an OUTPUT param ?

Hai all,
i had one column Emp_ID,location,.... in view(vw_Employee) and
one colmn Qurry_ID,location,Emp_ID in table(tbl_querries)
i just want to know,
how to find the count(Emp_ID) and count(Qurry_ID) by using innerjoin depending on distinct location
thanks in advance
Thanks
Subbu.

This is the syntax for doing a count of distinct records from a table:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT column(s)) FROM table

The background
I'm planning on setting up a secondary database at work which will act as a view only platform for our accounting system.
The reason behind this is that we have 32 licenses for our account system and by using replication I can create another database allowing view only permissions - hence doubling our licenses. In effect I will be creating a new accounting system which will be a replication of our live system(updated every hour).
I've done a fair bit of reading from both Microsoftt, Wrox "Professional SQL Server 2000 Programming" book,idiots guide to sql server etc...
However I still want something based a bit more on experience before I start setting up replication on my business server.
Replication tends to get presented in such a dry and theoretical manner!
Can anyone recommend a good link/article on the internet for me?
Or is the answer just to dive in and learn from practice?
Regards
Guy

Thank you for the link. 
My plan is to have the Publisher/Distributor and Subscriber on the same server.
We are doing things on the cheap here.
In your experience will this cause a marked slowdown in the the machine?
Thanks again
