INSERT INTO <table1> SELECT * FROM <table2> [WHERE <condition>]
this will allow to select data from one table and insert into another.

I get several EDI Files from vendors that have small square at the en of the file on the last line, if I don’t delete them before running my stored procedure I get unexpected end of file error. Anyone know how to make the procedure ignore this?

Hi Brian
Most text editors show a small square to indicate that there is a non-printable control character.
If you can identify what the control-character is (I normally use a Unix hex dump) then you can use
REPLACE(MyColumn, CHAR(n), '') to get rid of it (where "n" is the character number). The most likely control-characters are CHAR(0) [ASCII NUL] and CHAR(26) [ASCII EOF].
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help but Im not sure how I use the replace statement in this content this is the code that fails due to the control character. Can I put the replace in with the bulk insert and how would I do this?
Thanks
declare @File varchar(1000)
declare @cmd varchar(2000)
declare @dealermark money
create table ##Import (prodnum varchar(20), lblabr varchar(4), lbl varchar(20), vendorname varchar(20), catnum varchar(20),config varchar(2),artist varchar(50),title varchar(50),mcat1 int,mcat2 int,mcat3 int,vidrate varchar(5),sellprice money,listprice money,UPC varchar(20),oldupc varchar(12),oldprod varchar(20),rlsdate datetime,disdate datetime, lastret datetime,specord varchar(1), modflag varchar(1), bioinfo varchar(1000))
select @File = @pFileName
select @cmd = 'bulk insert'
select @cmd = @cmd + ' ##Import'
select @cmd = @cmd + ' from'
select @cmd = @cmd + ' ''' + replace(@File,'"','') + ''''
select @cmd = @cmd + ' with (MAXERRORS = 1000, FIELDTERMINATOR=''","'''
select @cmd = @cmd + ',ROWTERMINATOR = ''' + char(10) + ''')'
truncate table ##Import
-- import the data
exec (@cmd)

Do you have an error message? I use the same sort of code in my application and it doesn't complain about CHAR(0) characters.
Otherwise, is it possible for you to clean the file using C# before loading it in?

In Access these four items would be sorted like this:
EIGHTY
'EIN EL-JARBA
EL-AJJUL, TELL
ELAM, ELAMITES
But in SQL Server they get sorted like this:
'EIN EL_JARBA
EIGHTY
ELAM, ELAMITES
EL-AJJUL, TELL
Is there a way to make SQL server sort like the Access database.

I kept waiting, hoping someone would reply, cause I don't know nothin about SQL Server; but since no one is stepping up to the plate...
What colation order are you using in Access? Look under Tools -> Options -> General -> "New database sort order".
My guess is that you have it set to "General", which I think uses the Western European Code Page. Try the following link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/dnarsqlsg/html/msdn_interntl.asp[^]
which discusses code pages etc. You're probably going to have to reset your code page within SQL Server to get it to work like Access; probably to Western European.

Hi All,
Few days back I posted a problem related to Pivot Table, and with help of people here I solved it. Thanks a lot. Unfortunately the script had some lack of generalization. Lest see the code first, -
<br />
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spDayBranchSummary<br />
<br />
@RepDate DATETIME<br />
<br />
AS<br />
<br />
SELECT <br />
-- 1.A & 1.B Branch Code and Name<br />
BCode, BName, <br />
<br />
-- 2.A Total Quantity of HH sold on that day<br />
((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty)<br />
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN (Sale INNER JOIN Vendor ON <br />
Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND<br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)<br />
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND<br />
Sale.SaleDate = @RepDate AND SaleLine.PCode = 'HH'<br />
)) AS HH,<br />
<br />
-- 2.B Total Quantity of HT sold on that day<br />
((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty)<br />
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN (Sale INNER JOIN Vendor ON <br />
Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND<br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)<br />
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND<br />
Sale.SaleDate = @RepDate AND SaleLine.PCode = 'HT'<br />
)) AS HT,<br />
<br />
-- 3 Sales on that day<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty * SaleLine.Price)<br />
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN (Sale INNER JOIN Vendor ON <br />
Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND<br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)<br />
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND<br />
Sale.SaleDate = @RepDate), 0) AS [Net Value],<br />
<br />
-- 4.A Total Payment on that day<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(VPH.CashAmount)<br />
FROM VendorPaymentHistory VPH INNER JOIN <br />
Vendor <br />
ON VPH.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND <br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode AND <br />
VPH.PaymentDate = @RepDate), 0) AS Cash,<br />
<br />
-- 4.B Total Coupons returned on that day<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(VCH.Quantity*VCH.Price)<br />
FROM VendorCouponHistory VCH INNER JOIN<br />
Vendor<br />
ON VCH.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND <br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode AND <br />
VCH.[Date] = @RepDate), 0) AS Coupon, <br />
<br />
-- 5 Total of 4.A and 4.B<br />
-- (Cash + Coupon) AS [Total Value]<br />
<br />
-- 6 Day's Balance<br />
-- ([Net Value] - Cash - Coupon) AS [Day Balance]<br />
<br />
-- 7 Previous Outstanding<br />
-- Previous Outstanding = [Previous Sale] - [Previous Cash] <br />
-- - [Previous Coupon] + [Total Opening Balance]<br />
-- 7.A Previous Sale<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty * SaleLine.Price)<br />
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN <br />
(Sale INNER JOIN <br />
Vendor ON Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND <br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)<br />
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND<br />
Sale.SaleDate < @RepDate), 0) AS [Previous Sale],<br />
<br />
-- 7.B Previous Cash<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(VPH.CashAmount)<br />
FROM VendorPaymentHistory VPH INNER JOIN <br />
Vendor <br />
ON VPH.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND <br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode AND <br />
VPH.PaymentDate < @RepDate), 0) AS [Previous Cash],<br />
<br />
-- 7.C Previous Coupon<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(VCH.Quantity*VCH.Price)<br />
FROM VendorCouponHistory VCH INNER JOIN<br />
Vendor<br />
ON VCH.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND <br />
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode AND <br />
VCH.[Date] < @RepDate), 0) AS [Previous Coupon],<br />
<br />
-- 7.D Opening Balance<br />
dbo.NZ((SELECT SUM(Vendor.OpeningBalance)<br />
FROM Vendor <br />
WHERE Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode), 0) AS [Opening Balance]<br />
FROM Branch<br />
ORDER BY BCode<br />
GO<br />
Now in this stored procedure 2.A and 2.B are rows in another table and taken as columns here. In future suppose rows in that table increase I will have to add lines here for new rows. Can this be automated? So that there is no need to add new lines for new rows?
Thanks in advanced

Phew - that's one long procedure. If I were you, I would introduce a table that contained the codes that you were interested in, and then in your select statement show the code and the total. The link is a simple inner join, so
((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty)
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN (Sale INNER JOIN Vendor ON
Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND
Sale.SaleDate = @RepDate AND SaleLine.PCode = 'HT'
)) AS HT, becomes
LookupTable.Code, ((SELECT SUM(SaleLine.Qty)
FROM SaleLine INNER JOIN (Sale INNER JOIN Vendor ON
Sale.VCode = Vendor.VCode AND
Vendor.BCode = Branch.BCode)
ON SaleLine.SaleCode = Sale.SaleCode AND
Sale.SaleDate = @RepDate AND SaleLine.PCode = LookupTable.Code
)) AS SumOfValues
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Hi all,
I have questions on SQL Express 2005 performance. Will it be faster if it is installed on Windows Server compared to on Windows XP? (I guess whatever the answer to this will apply to SQL 2005 (non-Express) as well).
The other question (since I am not IT guy): what exactly are different in Server hardware compared to Client hardware? (Usually they are much more expensive). Will the performance of Windows Server (and all its programs) suffer if it is installed on a client-spec hardware?
Thanks for any input.

I think the bigger issue with performance is hardware. If you have a single CPU system it is not going to be very good either way. If you have a multiple cpu system that is better. sql express 2005 is limited to the amount of ram and cpus it can use. The regular version is not. It is also limited to the size of the database. So if you want you database to be fast, have multiple CPU's lots of Ram and fast hard drives. It also can help to have your database and log files on different volumns (multiple hard drives).
Here's a link on sql express 2005 limitations

Hope that helps.

Are you saying that the performance of SQL Express on Windows XP will be the same with performance of full SQL Server on Windows Server 2003 if both of these are using the same machine (1 CPU, 1GB RAM) serving lets say, 5 clients? (I know that full version is the logical choice for serving large number of clients).
Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, according to their own details, it is the same thing just a smaller limited version. If you only have 5 clients and their databases will be under the limit then it sure is a lot cheaper.
Actually if you decided to install the Sql express locally on the PC that the application was running on sql express would be faster then the full version since it wouldn't have to go across the network.

Does anybody know if 1.1 supports the Failover Partner connection string clause? I'm just starting to investigate possibilities for mirroring a database accessed by a ASP.Net 1.1 project and can't find documentation stating that 1.1 supports it. I assume 2.0 does, but I'm not sure when the functionality was implemented, since it's new to SQL Server 2005.

hello all,
I have 3 tabels empployees(empid int,empname nvarchar 50),departement(depid int,depname nvarchar 50)and a table called intermediate(empid int,depid int) that join the other two tables I want to know the employees that doesn't belong to any departement.
I'v try the following:
select empname from emps join intermediate on emps.empid!=intermediate.empid
but it doesn't work as expected.

select empname from emps left join intermediate on emps.empid = intermediate.empid Look for any nulls in the Intermediate.EmpID column.

Hello friends,
Can anybody tell me about Hash table?
advantages of this table??
Thanks,

Google broken where you live ?
Hash tables have nothing to do with SQL. They are a container which allows you to store values against an index. Google will tell you more.

Google hashtable and collections. There are some good articles on the collections classes on the msdn website. A hashtable is a type of collection used for storing objects in memory and has no relation to sql or Ado.net classes.

Hi
Before filtering based on Date, you need to convert to a specific format.
For eg., Convert(nvarchar(12),@DateParameter,101) where 101 displays date in mm/dd/yy.
So if you want to display based on date.
Select * from Table1 where convert(nvarchar(12),DateCol,101) = Convert(nvarchar(12),@DateParameter,101)
Where @DateParameter is the parameter to be passed from front-end.
Hope this is clear.
