My Virtual memory size is increasing when i am using Insert operation and select operation.
which is leading to hang the system.
It is prompting that the virtual size is low. system will increase the virtual size.
Kindly help to come out of this problem.

Are you using transactions during this processing ? If so, you need to ensure that you are issuing a commit periodically.

Hi I am Doing Insert and Select operations.
And the 30 records per second will be inserted.

that really didnt answer his question, he was asking about logging, if you issue a commit the log should get truncated so it wont just keep growing. however i've only had problems with that makeing a system low on disk space not virtual memory or ram. if you are running SQL Server 2k it wants 2gb of memory and will take all it can find..the 64bit version wants 4GB..and i imagine the newer versions take even more.

no iam not doing any logging.

you might not be logging, but did you turn it off for the database on the server? it will automatically log inserts and updates, so that if you or something cancels the query that is bieng run it can roll back any changes. you can disable it but i've never done so and was told that it was a pain, and can cause issues. If you have any indecies on those tables you'll have to rebuild them unless your data is in order when its bieng inserted, either way the indecies will slow down inserts and if they've been corrupted will slow down any table scan, select, update etc..

i would have loved to use a chain saw on our damn dev server the other day..my boss was updating 3 columns based on a 4th column in a table with over 400M rows, and the database was 23gb w/ a logfile 36gb and the array it was sitting on had 8MB left on it, we were wondering why the command wouldnt finish...but thats on SQL Server 2k, hopefully the new ones do it differently. cant wait for the new dev server 2TB of storage.

Hello All,
I have a table with some Columns. I am inserting the records in this table by bulk insert query. The problem is that in the last column the data is inserted by name with FIELDTERMINATOR $. I just need to wirte a query by which I can remove this $ and just have name in that column.
Any suggestions...
Thanks in advance...

To this and your other question below.
What is the row delimiter used in the file? If it's a newline, just add
BULK INSERT dbo.tb_DEMO
FROM 'C:\DEMO08Q1.TXT'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR ='$'
ROWTERMINATOR = '$\n'
)
BTW, does your file have only 1 row?

hello SimulationofSai,
Thanks for the reply. Its working now. File contains almost 104411 rows.
I did this :
BULK INSERT dbo.tb_DEMO
FROM 'C:\DEMO08Q1.TXT'
WITH
(
FIRSTROW = 2
,FIELDTERMINATOR ='$'
,ROWTERMINATOR = '$\n'
)
FirstRow = 2 solved my first problem and ur suggestion helped me to solve my 2nd problem.
Thanks again...

Anyone know or use a tool that let's you point it at a table in a DB and it will then generate a SQL script for you that drops/creates all the indexes on the table? Thanks.

SQL Management Studio?
You've to script twice, once for drop and once for create. And when you script a table, it'll also script CREATE TABLE which you've to remove manually.
Yeah, it can't be done in one step. But it's not too complicated either...

Sorry, I should have mentioned that it's not for SQL Server, but for Oracle specifically, though I was hoping for a tool that would be database 'agnostic'.
I done lots of Google searching and found lots of scripts that will tell me how to determine what indexes are defined, but I'm searching for something that goes a step further and puts a drop/create script together for me. Though I also know that may be kind of tough when it comes to unique/primary keys for a table. Thanks, though.

There are a number of tools out there, TOAD is one, used to be for Oracle only but I think it is agnostic now. A goole search should turn up plenty (paid), I don't know of any free ones.

Yes, it also works with MS SQL Server now. A nice tool to have around

Preethi in your query there is error please put space between
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNSWHERE
thats why you getting error of '=' sign
declare @tablename varchar(20)
set @tablename = 'Customers'
SELECT COLUMN_NAME,DATA_TYPE,CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH,NUMERIC_PRECISION,NUMERIC_SCALE FROM
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = tablename ORDER BY ORDINAL_POSITION
Reasons are not Important but Results are Important.

I would assume you have SQL 2005, look into the information schema views, in management studio under views|system views
If you are in an earlier version you are going to have to make them up using sysobjects and syscolumns.
