Find approximate values

Mop the floor, but fix the leak. Add a CHECK (foobar LIKE '[A-Z][A-Z] [A-Z]') to the table so that the bad data never gets into the database. Let the applications do data scrubbing on their side of the system.

ah - you mean the "don't" rely on the ordering of the rows one. That's been in the product for a long time and its best avoided unless all the criteria are met like uniqueness on the keys and stuff but I don't think using it in this way is good practice.

transaction log file growth
Published (2009-11-05 15:17:00)
Mike, If you have a long-running transaction that remains open, it prevents the log space from being reused, which can cause the log file to grow. Log space can only be backed up and reused back to the oldest still open transaction in the database. You can investigate using DBCC OPENTRAN to see if that is the case. (Note that even if the transaction is small, it still holds the log space prisoner for all the other...

AdventureWorks database
Published (2009-11-10 21:33:00)
Hi Sql book I’m reading uses extensively AdventureWorks database. But it’s very difficult to follow since I don’t know what exactly the tables and their columns represent ( I realize each column has a descriptive name like RevisionNumber, TaxAmt …but many of these terms are confusing, especially when not seeing the larger picture ), and how these tables ( aka what they represent in real world ) are semantically related to each other....

Also, you mentioned in your original post that you wanted to keep running totals, I assumed for the year, and each month. Your solution only keeps running totals by SKU by month and restarts each month. Does that meet your requirements? -Eric Isaacs

Hi Klem, Simple - because that are the limitation the development team chose to put in place. <speculation mode on> Allowing these options would probably allow users to write queries that were too hard to figure out how to do, or that would require more development time than was necessary.

I suspect this is a "how do I do this in Delphi", which is not easy to assist with, since I don't know Delphi.

Correct. However, you seem to not quite grasp the difference between char and varchar. BOL should be your first visit. > Likewise, if there are more than 23 and 25 characters, > then the data will not be inserted into those two fields. Also correct?

The sales data doesn't change after the period is expired, so rather than an indexed view, why not a permanent table to keep these values in? Consider a table like this...

Hi Jon, It may be because of isolation level setting. The client may be using read uncommited isolation level. If so ask the client to use read commited isolation level Regards, Balaji >I have a T-SQL stored procedure that inserts a row into one table, then >inserts a row into another table, both tables in the same database.

Mike, What is the point in wrapping each file upload into transaction? Each INSERT is atomic transaction already, lasting the length of insert. If you always had 3 related files coming and you needed to upload them as unit, and ensure that all are loaded or all fail, then explicit wrapper transaction is a valid approach. If you have appropriate size SQL Server, this should be no problem. if...

Are you using bulk loading (called "fast load" in SSIS, I believe) in your OLE DB Destination adapter? I don't think you can track particular errors with bulk loading on. If you turn off "Fast Load", the adapter will have an error path you can use to redirect error rows elsewhere. The error path adds "Error Description" and "Error Code" columns to the flow, which you can interrogate for FK ...
