Hi Niladri
Thanks for the article, it gives me a better understanding of Grouping and Rollup. I applied it by inserting Case Grouping on Payee and ClientName but still didn't yield the desired results. May be i don't grasp it quite clearly, but you see in the example in the article they had two columns (CustomerName and ItemName), so when grouping they just group by the two columns. In my case i have 10 columns and only have to summarise 3 columns (Payment, Accrual, CountMem) and group by Payee and ClientName only.
Please help me out here.

You have to check whether any users are connected to sql server database and if any user is connected to database, you have to disconnect the user(s) and run a process in a job. How do you do the above in a job?

Sounds like a homework question, but.....
Take a look at SP_WHO and KILL, but be warned, you need admin (sa) rights to do a kill.

not sure what you mean here. Run some sql? run a stored proc? what?
anyway, hopefully this will point you in the right direction.

how to insert multiple rows in sql

It depends where the data is coming from... Can you be a little more specific?
|
|
|
|
|
thanks for the response
i wanted to add around 500000 rows of data in a table as atemplate for my project
one field can be the primary key which will be auto incremented
all others are repeated values...
so is it possible for me to add multiple rows at one shot
|
|
|
|

If you have all of that data in a table, you can use:
Insert into DataBaseTable
select * from SourceTable
You can also use Bulk Insert[^] for doing this.

See my cartesian product answer below.

I figured he had no data, but wanted 500K records to test with...
|
|
|
|
|
My bad. I thought he needs to insert data from somewhere to his DB.

The easiest way is to use another table to create a cartesian product (ie: selecting from two or more tables with nothing linking them causes a cartesian product - one row for every possible combination).
The following select statement will return over a million rows on my test SQL Server:
select 'a'
from dbo.sysobjects as so1, dbo.sysobjects as so2
Extending this into an insert statement, you would do this:
insert into TABLENAME(FIELD1, FIELD2)
select 'a', 'b'
from dbo.sysobjects as so1, dbo.sysobjects as so2
which will basically insert the values a and b into your table a million or so times... If you have a table that autonumbers, then you will have a million consecutive numbers generated with which to test with.
Hope this helps.

If u are using
SQL SERVER 2008 , you can use
Table Valued Parameter .
Form your front end application(assuming .net), u need to send via a datatable to ur TVP.

How can I use the bulk insert function with an online stream of data?
Can I simply do:
Bulk Insert datatable
From 'http://www.websites/sample.txt'
or
Do I need to create a webclient, wrap it with a reader/writer (assuming "sreader") and do:
Bulk Insert datatable
From 'sreader'
Thanks!

I work with both SQL Server Express 2008 and Microsoft Visual Web Studio Express 2008. However the two programs don't seem to be "in sync" properly.
Probably this is because I set up the database wrong, but I'm not sure. I first add a new database and a table in VWD (Visual Web), which creates two files, a MDF and a log file under
Documents\VisualWebStudio2008Express\Websites\Website\APP folder.
Next, I tried attaching that database file in SQL Server Management Studio Express. Since the Express version could not access any document saved under My Documents (which I later found out), I copied the two files and pasted them directly under my C:\ directory, and successfully attached the database into SQL Server Management by pointing its path to the database under C:\.
Now here's where all the weird things started happening.
1. The file path of the newly attached database in SQL Server Management Studio shows that it's now pointing to
Documents\VisualWebStudio2008Express\Websites\Website\APP folder
instead of C:\, which was where I originally pointed to. Hmm, strange...
2. To test it out, I inserted some data into the database via SQL Server, and when going back to VWD and opening up the table, surprisingly the file is updated accordingly.
3. Thinking that I wouldn't need the two files in C:\ anymore, I deleted them. But now going back to SQL Server, I found that the database is now gone! Of course in VWD I could still open the database because it's pointing to the file under Documents\VisualWebStudio....
This is all very confusing, and I couldn't figure out what's pointing at what actually.
Could you guys please help me out? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!!

You should not delete MDF and LDF database files. You should only tell the database to limit log file sizes and shrink the log file if it is already too big.
|

Thank you Ted, though I'm still confused about why in SQL Server Management Studio, it shows that it's pointing to the database under the VWD folder rather than the C:\ folder, and when I delete the files in the C:\ folder, I don't see them anymore in SQL Server Management Studio?

Hi,
I have got a test table in A database with user details. Now i have imported temp table in B database with user details.
Now i want to match if test & temp table contains same set of users, if not then display the extra number of users in either of the table.
In temp and test table only matching value could be email id.
How can i achieve this ?
Thank You
Andyyy

Try something like this:
select emailID,'Missing from B' from db_A.dbo.table1 where emailID not in
(select emailID from db_B.dbo.table2)
UNION
select emailID,'Missing from A' from db_B.dbo.table2 where emailID not in
(select emailID from db_A.dbo.table1)
That should show you the differences.

Hi,
When a large transaction is updating thousands of rows in a table, other transactions that wants to insert/update data into this table waits until the former transaction is finished.
(Please verify if my understanding is incorrect).
I'm saying this in the context of web application with multiple functions updating the same table, some of which are "bulk updates" which users sometimes use to update a large amount of data which takes a good 30 minutes to run. In this case, all other users are stuck and could not use functions that updates the same table.
Is there a way to solve this problem (other than reducing the 30-min runtime)?
Thanks!
