I haven't tried this for a text file, but give the Link Server a try in the enterprise manager. If I remember correctly the syntax is as follows: select * from linkserver...tablename.

Hi,
Where can I find the pros and cons of migrating from MS-SQL Server 2000 to MS-SQL Server 2005.
I was actually looking at the microsoft site, but was not able to find the exact one. May be I didn't go to the right page.
Thanks,

Hi,
Im using classic asp with an MS SQL server.
I have a table hosting a number of contact for a number of different users.
How do i go about deleting duplicate records in the table for a given user?
Obviously i need to keep 1 copy of every contact, and simply remove any additional records that might exist for this contact.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there,
Not sure exactly it's true or not. Should do a backup one first ...
- select distinct rows from table1 and copy into table1
- delete table1
- insert back rows from table2 to table1

Hi
not sure that would work. As each contact has unique ID yet several users might have a contact that is on someone elses contact list also.
Needs a more robust solution.
Thanks anyway.

Hi there,
So basing on what to consider that 2 records are duplicated?
<< >>
|
|
|
|
|
If one user has two contacts records the same eg:
where the AccountHolderID, FirstName, and Email are the same for two or more records.
|
|
|
|
|
just do what I suggest... what things do you worry about???
IMO, this can be done with sql script described above....
And remember to do back up first.

ConstraintException was unhandled:
Column 'cd_id' is constrained to be unique. Value '9463216602' is already present.
in my database this field [cd_id] in both tables aren't the primary key, are just simple fields ... what's i'm doing wrong, can someone help me please, i'm using this code:
the general variables:

SqlDataAdapter daCD, daTemas;<br />
DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet("MusicaTeca");<br />
DataViewManager myDVM;<br />
CurrencyManager cm;<br />
in the form_load:
<br />

"Server=(local)\\SQLEXPRESS;DataBase=musicateca;" +<br />
"integrated Security=SSPI");<br />
<br />
daCD = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tbl_cds", myConnection);<br />
daCD.TableMappings.Add("Table", "tbl_scds");<br />
daCD.Fill(myDataSet, "tbl_cds");<br />
<br />
daTemas = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tbl_temas", myConnection);<br />
daTemas.TableMappings.Add("Table", "tbl_temas");<br />
daTemas.Fill(myDataSet, "tbl_temas");<br />
<br />
myDVM = myDataSet.DefaultViewManager;<br />
<br />
DataRelation relCD_Tema;<br />
DataColumn parentCol, childCol;<br />
parentCol = myDataSet.Tables["tbl_cds"].Columns["cd_id"];<br />
childCol = myDataSet.Tables["tbl_temas"].Columns["cd_id"];<br />
relCD_Tema = new DataRelation("RelCD_Temas", parentCol, childCol);<br />
myDataSet.Relations.Add(relCD_Tema);<br />
<br />

txtGenero.DataBindings.Add("Text", myDVM, "tbl_cds.genero");<br />
txtID.DataBindings.Add("Text", myDVM, "tbl_cds.cd_id");<br />
<br />
dbGrid.DataSource = myDVM;<br />
dbGrid.DataMember = "tbl_cds.RelCD_Temas";<br />
dbGrid.Columns["reg_id"].Visible = false;<br />
dbGrid.Columns["cd_id"].Visible = false;<br />
<br />
cm = (CurrencyManager)this.BindingContext[myDVM, "tbl_cds"];<br />
}<br />
and the search button_click:
<br />
private void btnLocalizar_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
int intRow;<br />
<br />
myDVM.DataViewSettings["tbl_cds"].Sort = "cd_id";<br />
intRow = myDataSet.Tables["tbl_cds"].DefaultView.Find(txtID.Text);<br />
<br />
if (intRow > 0)<br />
{<br />
cm.Position = intRow;
cm.Refresh();<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
MessageBox.Show("Registo não localizado!");<br />
}<br />
}<br />
can someone help me please ... and forgive me my bad english.
Thanks

A field need not be a primary key to have a unique constraint. Sounds like cd_id has a unique constraint or index defined for it. Check the db definitions.

i think you have set up the relation between the two tables in the dataset memory, hence your parent table which contains is taken as the primary key.
Please check out this.

varbinary is unlikely to be large enough (unless you are using SQL Server 2005) as its maximum size is just under 8K. You need to create the column as an image (the 2Gb limit should be sufficient for office files.)

it as an image ?

Ok im sure this is simple but im new to SQL and dont want to mess things up so your assistance please.
Im using a MS SQL server, which holds client contact details. However in the email field some contacts do not contain properly formatted email adresses.
eg www.somewhere.com rather than someone@somwehere.com
So what sql statement would i run to delete these fields?
Is it as simple as:
Delete * From table WHERE email NOT LIKE %@%
(im looking for records without a '@' symbol)
Thanks!
|
|
|
|
|
try this
delete from table where email not like %@%
--this query deletes all rows in which doesnt exists character @
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah,
Thought so!
Thanks for confirming.

u are welcome

OK all. I installed VS2005 Pro with SQL Express. No problems. I went to the Microsoft Learning Center[^] web site for the Visual Web developer and started watching the videos. However, when I try to follow the Lesson 8 video, I can't get the Advanced SQL Connection options to show themselves (they are all greyed out). So when I try to add a control that allows data editing to an ASPX page, I can't turn on the editing feature. Is this something in SQL Express I have to configure?
