Hi there friends,
I have a pre-designed database and should work with that.
One of the columns of the table is DATETIME but just used for placing current time there.Every time I add just current time there the SQL SERVER adds date before that.
How can I just Fill current time there?
Best Regards -- Ali

Ignore the date portion or set it to fixed date. There is no Time data type in Sql Server.

Thanx buddy.
But Something surprizes me here. There are two applications in this system using this database seperatley. First One is in VB6 and uses ado.old and my application that is in C#.NET and using SqlDataAdapter,My records have Date And Time but their records Just have Time !!!
Any Ideas?
Kind Regards -- Ali

I would suspect that VB6 is doing a conversion locally. Sql Server does not have a Time only data type. You can always store the time in an integer field if this bothers you. Just convert it to seconds or microseconds since midnight.

I have a select query
select col1-tbl2,col2-tbl3,col3-tbl4 ,col4-tbl1,col5-tbl1 from tbl1where condition,
The above quey col1-tbl2,col2-tbl3,col3-tbl4 are from table1 only, but it have only id(ie) the foreign key references of tables 2,3,4
I want the column with their values to join with the tables 2,3,4.
Except USING CASE

Please Guide me

The syntax for table and column names in SQL is tablename.columnname
This can be extended to schemaname.tablename.columnname and databasename.schemaname.tablename.columnname and even servername.databasename.schemaname.tablename.columnname
Putting col1-tbl2 looks like you are tying to do a subtraction operation - which is confusing at best.
Your col1, col2, etc. are all referring to either primary keys or foreign keys in which case you should, for clarity, name them to indicate that which reduces an additional burden on those trying to help you. (I hope you don't write code like this in real life)
SELECT tbl2.col1
FROM tbl1
INNER JOIN tbl2 ON tbl1.tbl2FK = tbl2.PK
INNER JOIN tbl3 ON tbl1.tbl3FK = tbl3.PK.....

I don't know why you need all those joins - you don't seem to be using them. I'm assuming that somewhere the data that you are using in the case sits in another table.
For example:
SELECT InterimRentReceivableUpfrontTaxModeName
FROM InventoryProfile
INNER JOIN TaxModes
ON TaxModes.ID = InventoryProfile.InterimRentReceivableUpfrontTaxModeID
You need one INNER JOIN for each ID you want to turn into a name.

Please don't delete messages - it is impolite when someone has already replied.

hi
currently i m using following query for counting and grouping
select count(*), col1 from table group by col1 having count(*) > 1
this query returns result like
count(*)-----col1
2----val1
4----val2
now i want to find the number of rows of this returning table so that i can figure out how many col1 values have count > 1

Select Count(*)<br />
from<br />
(<br />
select col1 <br />
from table <br />
group by col1 <br />
having count(*) > 1<br />
) d<br />
Should do the trick

Without seeing the code to go along with the error messages it is a bit difficult to help.

Hi Exprets,
I am making an application using MS SQL Server and I need to know that what kind of relationships are existing between table e.g. 1-1 or 1-M. I can get the constraint's, coulumn, table, types information from INFORMATION_SCHEMA at this point but I still need to find the relationship types between tables.
I am using C# and ADO.NET and the version of Database Server right now is MS SQL Server 2000 but Finally I will be utilizing MS SQL Server 2005.
Any idea, suggestion, snippet?
Thankx

Hi, I am currently trying to get the SQL query that created a table in SQl server in the first place.I know you can right click on a table name and say Script to Object window as create.. but wanna know how this works? Is there an equivalent for get_ddl function of Oracle in SQL server?
Thanks a lot for the help in advance

I presume it looks up the various sys* tables (e.g. sysobjects & syscolumns) to find out what is in the database and create a script based on that.

I have a small c# application that connects to a sql server (msde, 2000 or 2005). At a certain point I scheduleld a database backup to a file like this :
BACKUP DATABASE myDatabase TO DISK = 'c:\test folder'
Nothing wrong if the server is on the computer that runs tha small application, but if the server is on a remote computer the file is saved on that one instead on the one that runs the application.
How can I save the file on the computer that acceses the sql server (na- how can I make the server interact upon backup-restore with an other computer over the network)?
protected internal static readonly ... and I wish the list could continue ...

That is correct because the command is running on the remote server so all disk access will be as seen from the SQL Server, not your local machine.

You don't. You backup on the remote machine then copy the file across the network.

Thanks for your answer!
Now I have another question, kind of offtopic... why didn't MS implemented the functionality to backup batabases to the terminals (remote pc's).
Security? I mean if you are able to backup a database you are able to querry it too, so there is noting to protect...
protected internal static readonly ... and I wish the list could continue ...

Not necessarily. You can assign a user account the the db_backupoperator role which permits only backing up the database (assuming no other permissions are granted).
Storing the backups on the local machine only means that you have to provide additional security rights in order to get the backup off the machine in order to restore it elsewhere.

One of our projects is using Enterprise Library for data access (i.e. Data Access block). I looked at the code and don't see what's the advantage of using Data Access Block...
But one big advantage I is, you don't need to "Close" connection.
Personally, I find NHibernate much more helpful in minimizing data access chores...

Right Now I have this code:
Private Sub add()
Dim firstvalue As String = txtName.Text
Dim secondvalue As String = txtSurname.Text
Dim conn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(strConnection)
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT Into tblMembers(Name, Surname) VALUES (?,?)"
cmd.Parameters.Add("Name", firstvalue)
cmd.Parameters.Add("Surname", secondvalue)
conn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
conn.Close()
End Sub
But an error is occuring telling me this:
Exception Details: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Operation must use an updateable query.
What do you thing this is?? Help me please!!
