DROP DATABASE dbname. Of course that also drops the database, but without the tables, triggers, etc..., it's just taking up space anyway.

I generally try to keep all of an application's tables, triggers, procedures, etc.. owned by a user that I refer to as a schema owner. This provides the ability at some point to
<br />
DROP USER <application_name> CASCADE; and everything is gone. This can especially come in handy with creating a backup database, complete with up to date data using an export file from a production database.

Hi,
Lets say I have 2 tables, DEALER and CARS whereby DEALER describes the details of the car dealer and CARS describes the details of the cars
that are for sale in a car dealer. So this implies that DEALER has many details of car dealers and CARS has many details of cars. So am I right in suggesting this is a many to many relationship since more than 1 dealer can sell the same car? If so how do I convert my tables so that I only have a one to many relationship?
Thanks for any information.

The normal method is to use a link table. Here's an example:
(Table dealer)
DealerID (PK)
DealerName
(Table car)
CarID (PK)
CarName
(Table DealerCars)
DealerID (FK to Dealer.DealerID)
CarID (FK to Car.CarID)
Note that these are really terrible field names, but they serve to get the point across. The car and dealer tables have no direct relationships. Instead, the link table describes the relationship between the two.

When you break down a many-to-many relationship, you get two one-to-many relationships.

in the database i have a table for complains and to solve the complain 24hrs are given.if the time is expired i want to db to generate an E-mail and send it to manager .
i'm planning to do this by using a trigger. if it is possible to do how to impliment this other wise could you please suggest how to do it ,
|

Trigger's are probably used against a database operation like Insert, Update, Delete. Not when a job is failed.
Why not try with Sql Server Agent and the extended stored procedure xp_sendmail.
Sql server has the ability to send mail without being triggered from the application. you can set up a job through Sql Server agent that wakes up and check's at proper intervals whether any job is failed and if yes then send's email.

Hi all,
I have problem to pass a value from one parameter to other parameters on my report.
On my report I have 3 parameters, year as integer, DateStart as datetime, DateEnd as datetime.
Is anyone know how to set the display value of the Datestart as (1/1/selectedyear) and DateEnd (12/31/selectyear) bases on the selection of the year and the calendar control will show next to the DateStart and DateEnd?
btw, I am using SSRS 2005 reporting services.
Thanks for your help.

Anybody know of a good way to do this? Basically, I want to take something like the following table:
12/12/2005 10998
12/12/2005 11000
And return something like this:
12/12/2005 10998,11000
I'd love to see an aggregate, though I'm sure nothing like the following exists:
Select
[Date]
,Concat(id, ',')
From
Table1
Group By
[Date]

I want to study database from a to z coz i havegot a project any book

So what do you expect from us? Read the book. If you have a specific problem then why don't you ask it? Good luck with learning
|

So what? Are you expecting us to write it for you from scratch? Try reading a book and learning or finding tutorials on Google. These forums are for specific questions like "I'm getting an error with this query, here is my code" not for people who are to lazy to do the research themselves.

Which database do you think that you will be using (MS-Access, SQL-Server, Oracle, etc) and what programming language will you be using for the front-end application?

Have you tried sp_help 'tablename' ?

The best way to document a table is to generate the script that creates the table - that way you can be certain you've captured all the parameters. Right-click the table, then select all tasks -> generate SQL script.
