I am generating xml from my C# application which look like
<Broker Code=\"ML\" IsAllowEstimate=\"False\" ReviseDate=\"01-16-2018\" BrokerEarnings=\"4Q2017 Pre\" BrokerName=\"BofA Merrill Lynch\"></Broker>
<TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitem>
<Ticker />
<TickerID />
<TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitemValues>
<TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitemValue>
<TabName>Consensus Model</TabName>
<StandardDate>1Q 2010</StandardDate>
<BRTab>Income Statement</BRTab>
<BRLineItem>NET REVENUES</BRLineItem>
<Action>Extracted</Action>
<StandardLineItem>Net Revenue</StandardLineItem>
<StandardValue>329.623</StandardValue>
</TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitemValue>
</TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitemValues>
</TickerBrokerStandardDateLineitem>
</Broker>
i guess due to \" character sql server not able to parse my xml. i tried lot to remove back slash from my xml in c# but failed.
so tell me what kind of changes i can do in my below xquery code as a result \" will not cause any problem
here is my full code

Hi again!
I have a doubt:
Let's say I have a tasks table:
---------------------
Tasks Table
---------------------
id : INT (PK)
idProject : INT
idUser : INT
idTaskType : INT
idInvoice : INT
date : DATETIME
start_time : DATETIME
end_time : DATETIME
pricePerHour : FLOAT
notes : LONGTEXT
---------------------
Then I have a types of tasks table:
---------------------
Tasks types table
---------------------
id : INT (PK)
name : VARCHAR(45)
---------------------
Then I have a types of tasks table:
---------------------
Tasks types table
---------------------
id : INT (PK)
name : VARCHAR(45)
---------------------
Also a users table
---------------------
Users table
---------------------
id : INT (PK)
idGroup : INT
name : VARCHAR(45)
---------------------
And a projects table
---------------------
Projects table
---------------------
id : INT (PK)
idCustomer : INT
notes : VARCHAR(200)
---------------------
And a reference prices table
---------------------
Reference prices table
---------------------
idProject : INT (PK) -> foreign key to Id at projects table
idUser : INT (PK) -> foreign key to Id at users table
idTask : INT (PK) -> foreign key to Id at tasks types table
pricePerHour : FLOAT
---------------------
My idea is to have specific prices depending on the project, the user and the task to be performed.
As you can see there are two pricePerHour fields (one in the "Reference prices table" and one in the "tasks" table).
I've found that in some projects prices change during the project... so it would be able to change the prices on the fly...
What do you think if my GUI uses the reference price as basis to assign the task price?
That way I would be able to change the price of each task if needed (renegotiating...).
Is there any better way to do that?

Based on that design, you can't have an entry in the reference prices table until you have an entry in the tasks table. So you wouldn't be able to use the reference price (that doesn't exist yet) to set the price when you create the task.
Wouldn't it make more sense for the reference prices table to link to the task types table?

WHOA! yes, that's a typo, I've done like this in the MySQL Workbench...
I did not wanted to paste all the SQL script here... maybe too much...
Knowing you are right and that I had like this in my original design, do you think it can work well?
PS: already modified the original post.
Thanks Richard!

It sounds reasonable. We use a slightly more complicated version of something similar in our airport management software.

Slightly you say... 
It's been years since the last time I designed a database and it was at school, so well... I preferred to ask for advice here before...
Thank you for checking it!

Hello All,
First time using a database of any kind. I am using SQLite with a VB.net application. Currently I store/retrieve data from an excel workbook and I want to replace that method with the database.
I have the code working to generate the database tables but want some expert opinions on best practices when laying out my tables. In the workbook I have a sheet for each drawer in several large containers 10 containers with 100 drawers each. Each drawer holds bins of different parts for a specific machine so each one is unique. So my excel sheet looks like this:
"Sheet Name = Container_1_Drawer_1"
"Sheet Row 1 = Pins"
"Sheet Row 2 = Clips"
...
"Sheet Row 100 = 1/4-20 x 1 Bolt"
My first though is to have a table for the drawer that is referenced by a table of containers but having no exp with databases I am not sure if this is the best approach or if I could do something more elegant.
Thanks in advance.

My gut feel says that you need to have a table for the parts themselves - I doubt there is only one machine that uses Pins or Clips or that size bolt.
Part
- PartID - a unique identifier (int or guid)
- PartName
- Other information as required Parts go into Bins and I'm assuming here that each bin can only contain one type of Part so
Bin
- Bin_ID - unique identifier
- Drawer_ID - Foreign key to Drawer table
- Part_ID - Foreign key to the Part table
- Information about the bin e.g. number of parts in this bin Bins go into Drawers but note that the Drawer table doesn't reference the Bins, the Bins reference the Drawer, it's "owner" if you like. The same applies to the Drawer referencing it's Container
Drawer
- Drawer_ID
- Container_ID - Foreign key to Container table
- Other info about the Drawer e.g. Machine reference?
Container
- Container_ID
- Other info about the container e.g. location It's very easy to over-engineer database design. For example I'm tempted to introduce a Machine table but that's probably over-doing it.

Thank you both. I looked at the links and they will help a lot. I think I trying to make it harder than it needs to be..I guess that is the engineer in me.

Hi all,
I'm thinking on making a small application to keep track of my working hours, billable or not...
I'd install it in my NAS to be able to access it from everywhere.
The database will be a MySQL database.
I'll do the programming in PHP (don't know any other thing for web).
I've been far away from databases for a long time and wanted to make a question about the right data structure...
I plan to have:
------------------
Table 1: CUSTOMERS
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Name : string
Address : string
------------------
Table 2: PROJECTS (1 customer can have N projects)
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Customer ID : number
Description : string
------------------
Table 3: TASKS_IN_PROJECT (1 project will have N tasks).
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Project ID : number
Person ID : number
Description : string
Date : timeDate
Start time : time
End time : time
Price per hour : number
------------------
Table 4: TASKS (N Tasks_In_Table will have 1 task).
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Description : string
------------------
Table 5: PEOPLE (N Tasks_In_Project will have 1 person).
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Person name : string
------------------
Table 6: EXPENSES_IN_PROJECT (1 project will have N expenses).
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Project ID : number
Note : string
Date : timeDate
Cost : number
------------------
Table 7: EXPENSES (N Expenses_In_Project will have 1 Expense).
------------------
(PK) ID : autonumeric
Description : string
My idea is having this database structure and then make a small PHP web page that would allow me to introduce customers, projects assigned to customers, tasks and persons for each project (those should be available from a combobox selecting from a list of available tasks (tasks table) and people (people table)), and also I would like to be able to add expenses to the project too in the same way... those expenses should be selected from a list coming from the Expenses table...
Do you think this is a good structure?
Have I done something terrible?
My objectives are:
1. storing all the worked hours.
2. being able to get some reports (total hours in a project, lists of tasks done...)
Thank you very much for your time and advice!

No, it's not VB6 nor JavaScript.

Decent
Just a few questions;
Joan M wrote: (N Tasks_In_Table will have 1 task)
I don't see that table's structure?
Joan M wrote: Price per hour : number
Are you going to lookup a price and enter it manually for every task? How about a table with base-tasks and pricing to choose from? Perhaps with an additional column for discounts or extra?
Also, you use autonumbers for your keys; That means you can enter a customer twice, without problems. I'd prefer a unique constraint on the autonumber, and a PK on the customers name. It's a nice way to ensure that there's a single unique identifyable customer for each project. It'd also mean that a project would require a unique constraint on its autonumber for quick reference, but also a decent PK; the combination of the username and the projectname.
--edit
Free tip; if you're unsure about a structure, populate your example with mock-data and try some queries

Quote: and a PK on the customers name. It's a nice way to ensure that there's a single unique identifyable customer for each project.
It's nice until you end up with two customers with the same name!
In my case I also can't use part of the address as I have a Father/Son scenario with the same name living at the same address (besides, people do move house occasionally).
So we have autonumbers - the onboarding process does the necessary checks for duplication

You, like the computer, and the cashier, need to be able to distinguish between the two, even in a listview. Wouldn't want to bill the father for the son's purchases

in sql server there is a group problem statement: DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY TABLUONGNV3.HOVATEN) AS STT
How to write in sql access issues in groups? I'm not writing well: (Select Count (*) FROM [TABLUONGNV3] as Temp WHERE [Temp].[MANHANVIEN] < [TABLUONGNV3].[MANHANVIEN]) + 1 AS STT
SELECT (Select Count (*) FROM [TABLUONGNV3] as Temp WHERE [Temp].[MANHANVIEN] < [TABLUONGNV3].[MANHANVIEN]) + 1 AS STT, TABLUONGNV3.HOVATEN, TABNHANVIEN.IDNV, TABLUONGNV3.MACANV, TABNHANVIENCA.CANV, TABLUONGNV3.N01, TABLUONGNV3.N02, TABLUONGNV3.N03, TABLUONGNV3.N04, TABLUONGNV3.N05, TABLUONGNV3.N06, TABLUONGNV3.N07, TABLUONGNV3.N08, TABLUONGNV3.N09, TABLUONGNV3.N10, TABLUONGNV3.N11, TABLUONGNV3.N12, TABLUONGNV3.N13, TABLUONGNV3.N14, TABLUONGNV3.N15, TABLUONGNV3.N16, TABLUONGNV3.N17, TABLUONGNV3.N18, TABLUONGNV3.N19, TABLUONGNV3.N20, TABLUONGNV3.N21, TABLUONGNV3.N22, TABLUONGNV3.N23, TABLUONGNV3.N24, TABLUONGNV3.N25, TABLUONGNV3.N26, TABLUONGNV3.N27, TABLUONGNV3.N28, TABLUONGNV3.N29, TABLUONGNV3.N30, TABLUONGNV3.N31, TABNHANVIENCA.TIENMOTCA, TABLUONGNV3.TONGLUONG, TABLUONGNV3.PHAT, TABLUONGNV3.TAMUNG, TABLUONGNV3.THUCNHAN, TABLUONGNV3.GHICHU

WHERE TABLUONGNV3.LUONGTHANG = #06/01/2019#

As you are not explaining this very well try the following:
1. Simplify your query down to the bare bones to demonstrate your problem e.g. remove all but one of the columns from TABLUONGNV3 from the select.
2. Supply us with some sample data for each of the tables left in your simplified query
3. Provide the results that you expect from the sample data provided.
Don't link to files - we won't download them, besides mediafire is a blocked site on my work computer.

This site has no support for sending attachments, so I use mediafire to send attachments, if your computer is blocked you can bypass the firewall using psiphon3.exe software, you can download this software at address Download Psiphon 3 for PC Windows 7/8/8.1/10 or XP Laptops

No - I cannot bypass the firewall using some dodgy download. What makes you think our corporate security is so weak it would allow me to do that
Why not just do what thousands of other members do - type in the details into a post?

My data SQL Server is reported this error, How does this error fix you ?
SQL Server detected a logical consistency-based I/O error: torn page (expected signature: 0xaaaaaaaa; actual signature: 0x5555aaaa). It occurred during a read of page (1:210768) in database ID 7 at offset 0x00000066ea0000 in file 'G:\Database\MyData.mdf'. Additional messages in the SQL Server error log or system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
During redoing of a logged operation in database 'MyData', an error occurred at log record ID (30182:834:13). Typically, the specific failure is previously logged as an error in the Windows Event Log service. Restore the database from a full backup, or repair the database.
Could not open new database 'MyData'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 824)

You need to do what the message tells you and restore the database from your backup. It is impossible from the above to know what caused the page error.

The information you provided me cannot correct the error
