It does apply in the JOINED result

It is applied to the result of the join.
In the past I have tried to "optimize" such statements as:
SELECT * FROM table1 AS T1
JOIN table2 AS T2
ON T1.idtable1 > 10
AND T1.idtable1 = T2.idtable1
but saw no improvement.

I think that depends on the database you are using. MS SQL would apply the where clause before the join. And you caan check this by getting the query-plan.

AFAIK SQL Server applies it before or after the join depending on what it thinks would give you the quickest result.

CREATE one user and give that db permissions to that user only and remove grants for other users

Then use MS_Access. 
If not, what database do you intend to use?

Hi
There are a lot of free databases. I am using Firebird right now. But it does not have password protection to its database files itself. Anybody can open database file to view it. Anybody can give me a suggestion for firebird database security problem.
Is there any database that has password protected? Especially for the embedded application.
Best regards,

What exactly do you mean by password protected?
You can download SQL Server Express for free (4Gb data file limit). It has security - i.e. you need a login to get into the database.
Anyone can pick the MDf (data) file and attach it and use the data.... unless you encrypt the data with or write your own encryption algorithm.

Thank you very much for reply.
I want to protect my database structure. So nobody can easily open my user database to view my table structure. Minimum there is a password protection to open the user database file.
Which database can do it? MySQL? ACCESS?
Thanks,

Yes all of those databases allow you to 'password' protect yuor database in some manner, but the DBA on site always knows this password.

Hi,
I am trying to insert a new record into my table Products. The insert is done via a windows forms application that i am developing using vb.net.
I am having problems trying to insert a new record into the Products table. The SQL code is not functioning properly. The Products table has 2 foreign keys and this is where i am having the problem i think. The table structures are as follows:
Products:
PK_ProductID, ProductName, FK_SupplierID, FK_CategoryID, QtyPerUnit
LK_Categories
PK_CategoryID, CategoryName, Description
LK_Suppliers
PK_SupplierID, SupplierName, Address, PostCode
I have created a query call ProductDetails that is used to add a new product item. The user enters the details of the new product: ProductName, SupplierName, CategoryName, QtyPerUnit and the Products table should then be updated. I have used the CategoryName and SupplierName fields instead of the FK_CategoryID and FK_SupplierID as the ID's are just auto numbers and would bear no identity to the user.
However i am having extreme difficulty in getting an INSERT statement to work.
Please can someone help me?
|
|
|
|
|
Do the category and supplier exist before you try to add the product?
What code are you using to perform the insert?
|
|
|
|
|
yes they do exist. The LK_Suppliers table and the LK_Categories table have the values stored already. Both these tables are lookup tables, where the suppliers and categories details are stored. The products table uses the ID's from the LK_Categories and the LK_Suppliers tables as each product item has a category and supplier.
Currently the INSERT Statement that i am using is as follows:
'"INSERT INTO Products (ProductName, SupplierName, CategoryName, QryPerUnity)
VALUES('" & Trim(txtProdNameIns.Text) & "', '" & Trim(SupplierNameComboBox.Text) & "' , '" & Trim
(CategoryNameComboBox.Text) & "' ,'" & Trim(txtQPUIns.Text) & "')"
However when i run this code in my application the following error comes up:
"The INSERT INTO Statement contains the following unknown field name: 'SupplierName'. Make sure you have typed the name correctly, and try the operation again."
Any advise with examples would be most appreciated.
Thanks

It sounds like Products does not have a column called SupplierName. I suspect it is actually SupplierID if its a FK to the Supplier table.

Yes that is true. I have created a query that displays the category name and supplier name, i did this because the FK_CategoryName and FK_SupplierName in the Products table are auto numbers and would not mean anything to the customer. I have linked the Products table, LK_Categories, LK_Suppliers with the ID's however i want to display the category names and supplier names to the user.
Then when the user wants to add a product item i want it to insert a line in the Products table, but where i am going wrong is that the FK_CategoryID and FK_SupplierID are foreign keys in the Products table are that is not referenced in my SQL INSERT statement.
I hope you understand my point.
I am desperate to get this working, please help.

Before you insert the product you need to translate the category and supplier to get their IDs.
|
|
|
|
|
What you have done to display the nformation is correct, but what you need to do id translate the supplier and category names back to their ID values to insert into the product table. YOU have to do the lookup and supply the correct values for the insert.
Personally I would be doing the insert in a stored procedure and would look up any FK values in the stored proc.
Hopefully this makes sense

hi i was just wondering which is the better way to insert data into database when i got large amount of data to add in.
way 1
do
"insert into db1 () values()"
execute command
while()
or
way 2
do
string = string + "insert into db1 () values()"
while()
execute command
also if lets say way 2 somewhere in the middle of the insert command there is an error would the code before it still be added?
|
|
|
|
|
The first is better, but neither is as good as:
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO table ( ... ) VALUES ( @Param0 ... )" ;
(create and add parameters to cmd)
while ( ... )
{
(set parameter values)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() ;
}
And use a transaction if you need to.

"in the middle of the insert command there is an error would the code before it still be added?"
You can use sqlTransaction , and can rollback and commit transactions as well as can make commit points

Best way to see which is performing fast is to profile the application. I will go with the first method with the modifications what PIEBALDconsult suggested.
Second method would be good in performance but it is hard to troubleshoot when you get error in one of the inserts.

It will be added. If you want to ensure all the data gets added, run the queries in a transaction.

In my opinion both Pinal Dave (well i really appreciates his efforts He is not doubt a SQL Guru ) and on the other hand users are right on their respective end.
i will also use Sql server if i am in Microsoft env. and tools while will def. go for mysql in case of php and linux/unix platform

I think that that is the right way to think about it too.
