Read up on Normalisation - this probably going to be the root issue. The common fields in the table should ONLY be IDs, if you are updating data in 3 different tables then your design is wrong.

In you are using SQL Server 2000 then this is not possible.
|
|
|
|
|
You can use SET @@rowcount or
create procedure ss(@s int)
as
EXEC 'select top ' + CAST(@s AS CHAR) + ' sno from summa1 order by newid()'

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of SET ROWCOUNT and not SET @@ROWCOUNT. @@ROWCOUNT tells you how many rows were affected by a statement.

I suspect you are in sql server 2000, which will not accept a parameter for the top clause. In 2005 it would work. You need to create and execute the sql dynamically for it to work in 2000.

in sql server 2000 try
create procedure ss(@s int)
as
SET ROWCOUNT @s
select sno from summa1 order by newid
SET ROWCOUNT 0
ROWCOUNT should turn pink..i havnt used it in a while so i may have typed it wrong. I do not believe that Rowcount is available in sql server 2k5, it was replaced with something but i dont remember what.
EDIT: ROWCOUNT is the correct one..@@ROWCOUNT wont work.
you could also use dynamic sql like
EXEC 'SELECT TOP ' + CAST(@s AS CHAR) + ' sno FROM summa1 ORDER BY newid'

I don't think this would work, I'm pretty sure @@rowcount is read only. I don't have sql server 2000 installed, but I have never seen @@rowcount being set, only ever read.
What I think is meant is set rowcount, but this cannot be set to a parameter, so you are back to dynamic sql
SomeGuyThatIsMe wrote: I do not believe that Rowcount is available in sql server 2k5,
Both rowcount (to set the number of rows returned) and @@rowcount (the number of rows affected) are both still alive and kicking in SQL Server 2005

It works fine i have it done in multiple places mostly in stored procedures, and in some other queries. SET ROWCOUNT it works well for randomizing the data you pull from a table with no PK. @@ROWCOUNT might be read only, ROWCOUNT is the correct one to use.

Sorry, you can set rowcount to a parameter, I just couldn't type when I tried it

Although be aware that as far as I know, ROWCOUNT is being deprecated in 2K5 and it is removed from SQL Server 2K8 (or perhaps the one after 2K8)

yep thats what i read...they are replacing it with something, but i dont think it works quite the same.

hi,
when i try to connect to a remote sql server 2008 from my application i get the below error.
'An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the
fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote
connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not
open a connection to SQL Server)'
but the remote sql server is accessible from other machines through the same application without any error.
thanks & regards

Check this link[^]. Is there any other error number (apart from 40)?

this was the complete error message. please note that i am connecting to sql server 2008 on a server and sql 2005 which is installed with visual studio 2005 is in the local machine.

Are you positive about this?
I am asking because it seems weird to me that the error message mentions SQL Server 2005 (When connecting to SQL Server 2005 ...) when you are connecting to SQL Server 2008.
|
|
|
|
|
ya i am sure about that. i have installed sql 2008 ctp5 "Katmai" in my machine and have VS 2005 along with it. when i try to connect to the database through my application i get this error message.
thanks & regards

Hello friends, Can we create record in sql server. (similar to record in oracle). to hold different datatype fields?
Amit
|
|
|
|

Well that has got to be one of the lamest questions I have EVER come across. PLEASE, please do some reading, do some reaserch, open your freakin eyes and THINK, SQL Server is a database, admittedly less robust/powerful than Oracle but right up there for functionality, how could it NOT support different data type in it's table format.
iamdking - you are an idiot. Sorry, could not resist and it may be unjustified but hey it's out there.

Thank You.
For your kind reply. I know I am idiot. But the fact is that I just started working on SQL Server and didnt found any record type variable in msdn. Thats why I ask such stupid question. Offcourse I didnt get answer ..But thanks for your quick response. 
Amit

See what you mean, I just tried searching msdn for datatypes and it took some finding. If you have enterprise manager the help in there is better for this, but the link below may be of help.

Hi all,
I am using MySQL 5.0 database. I need to transfer the data from one table to another within a mysql database based on the particular time interval. Is it possible to transfer data among the tables a database automatically. Please help me.
Thanks in Advance,
J. Mohan

Hmm I don't know about MySQL but most databases have no idea what time is. To do this you need a running process (to keep track of the time) and to periodically execute the transfer method. In SQL Server I would set it up as a job. If there is no concept of a job in MySQL then you may need to write an external process to do the scheduling for you.
