How to create sql for retrieving 10 records per time in .NET

I want to create sql for retrieving 10 records per time but need to know the total result matches.
And I have previous and next button for retrieving previous or next 10 records.
ThanksAs a great man once said: Huh?

I'm sure that your posting made sense to you, but I don't even have a clue what you meant. Could you try to repost and fill in a few of the details that I'm missing? I'd like to help you if I could, but at the moment I don't understand enough of what you want to have a chance!

-PatP|||Hi,

as Pat said, this isn't very clear and you really should repost. I just want to comment on what you may need to consider mentioning.

Almost all databases are used by multiple users at the same time. Selecting the 10 first records in a particular order makes perfect sense, as does selecting record 11 to 20 of that same recordset. But selecting 10 and then (at a later time) selecting "the ten next" doesn't have any clear meaning since the data may well have changed in the meantime. So perhaps it's a good idea to clarify how you want your system to deal with the different change scenarios: records may have been added, removed or updated, or any mix of the three between the two queries.

One way to "page in the database":
Initialize:
- establish a single orderby column for your query (if you have several columns, combine them into one column yielding equivalent sort order)
- select the top 10 records
- persist the value of the orderby column for the last record. In ASP.NET, use ViewState for this.

Each round trip:
- use the value of the last record in the previous result set to select the next ten:
SELECT TOP 10 ... WHERE ... AND ordCol > @.lastValue ORDER BY ordCol
- persist the last value again

Of course, if you require to page the other way (previous page) you must also persist the value of the first record. Furthermore, since there's no BOTTOM keyword to mirror TOP, you must use reverse sort order (otherwise, if you did SELECT TOP 10 ... WHERE ordCol < @.firstVal, the first page would be returned even if you tried to get the previous one from, say, page 5). Since you still want to display in-order, fix this by selecting into a temp table and then select in-order from that one:

SELECT TOP 10 INTO #page ... WHERE ... AND ordCol < @.firstVal ORDER BY ordCol DESC
SELECT * FROM #page ORDER BY ordCol

I hope this helps!

Dag|||Or you could just set-up paging in a datagrid...|||Huh?

Just a guess...

You want to do paging

Make sure to say hi to Jeff for me
__________________|||I meant that you could use a .NET DataGrid control that allows you to view a recordset one page at a time. You can define how many records you want displayed on each page. Of course this deals with paging at the Application level - don't know if that's what he wants but just thought I'd mention it.

I don't have a clue about paging at the SQL Server level...:-)|||Sorry for unclear question. Yes, what i want to do is paging.

How to create reports dinamically?

Hello. Can I make a report for example with all the columns and make a
program in asp.net in which the user can select the columns he wants to see?
Thanks.Yes of course, unless RDL is a open Language you can stick your parts
together as the User wants. But I would keep in mind that there are already
thrid party tools to do that, therefore looking at these will eventually
save you time and money fordeveloping that on your own.

how to create primary keys on compound fields?

Hi everyone,
I am now getting seriously into VB.Net development as a front end to SQL
server. After working about 20 yrs with DBF's and various xBase
programs (dBase, FoxPro, Clipper, etc), I am now convinced VB/SQL is the
way to go
I have a few questions:
I've successfully imported DBF files into SQL server (MSDE) but I can't
seem to create a data adapter (in VB) unless I have a primary key
defined. Do tables require primary keys be defined prior to dragging
them onto a forms and working with datagrids?
How can I create a primary key on a compound field? For a simple key
(one field), I know to open the server explorer, go into design mode,
then right click the field and set primary key. This works well ... but
... what about a 'details' table where the only unique key is a
combination of many fields (might be mixed type too), ex: customer
(char) + item (numeric) + color (char). How does one do that?
Thanks in advance

In the table design high-light each column name you want to make PK and
click the PK icon (a gold key symbol) in the toolbar. You high-light
each column by holding down the control key and clicking the square to
the left of the column name.
You could also use a DDL statement to create a PK:
ALTER TABLE table_name ADD CONSTRAINT PK_table_name PRIMARY KEY (col1,
col2, col3)
The coln are the column names that will comprise the PK.

|||Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I never noticed the gold key icon, I was using
the right click popup menu While it appears to work, when I try to
save the changes to the file, I get the same error message...
'PRODUCT' table
- Unable to modify table.
ADO error: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'PREF', table
'sterilite.dbo.Tmp_PRODUCT'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
I imported the DBF files via SQL servers' tools. I thought everything
was ok as in the server explorer, I see the database with all the tables
(foxpro files) inside it. I can also browse the data. I did notice the
'allow nulls' column was checked. I tried unchecking it but I get the
same error.
The foxpro file originally had a 'pref' C4 (for the 'prefix' code, a
character field, width 4) and I don't know what to try next.
In DBF syntax, the unique fields are:
pref, C4 (prefix of item)
item, C4 (item code)
color, C2 (color code)
cu_code, C4 (customer code)
All these fields get translated into 'varchar' type with the appropriate
widths and the allow nulls checked.
Any ideas?
Thanks

In RDBMS (SQL dbs) each row's Primary Key columns require data, i.e.,
they cannot be NULL. The error you're getting means that the PREF
column has NULL values in some, or all, of the imported rows. This
means the columns you've selected for PKs are not a good choice, or you
need to fix the data so there is a value in the PREF column for each
row.
It would seem that the columns item, color, cu_code, would be good
candidates for PK if they always have values per row, and, the 3 column
values, taken together, represent a unique value in the table.
Is the PREF column useful as part of a unique identifier (PK)? If so,
then it should have data.

They would still be unique as if an item only comes in one colour, the

Thanks for figuring out what the problem was!

You can change all values of one column, but that will not fix your
problem. For the PK, what you need to do is pick one, or more, columns
whose values uniquely identify the row. Each of these columns MUST have
data for every row. There cannot be rows where these columns have equal
values. E.g. (the 3 columns that make up the PK):
item colour cu_code
1 2 9988
1 3 9988
1 2 9988 <- PK constraint violation 'cuz equals 1st
row.
It would seem that this table would have a Date column. You could
include the date column in the PK & have something like this:
item colour cu_code order_date
1 2 9988 20040115
1 3 9988 20040115
1 2 9988 20040120 <- now OK 'cuz order_date makes
row different from 1st row.
If the columns you pick as the PK have rows w/o data then you will have
to do, what is known as, "Data Clean Up." Which should be done by your
client since they are the ones who created this mess to begin with.
I suggest you get a good book on database design to help you figure out
construction of primary keys, foreign keys, indexes, etc. I've
recommended _Database Design for Mere Mortals_ by Hernandez.

have collected quite a library over the years and I'm always reading

I'm aware of the requirement of a unique value for each record, it is
just some records, when imported from DBF (Foxpro/DOS) have null values.
In DBF format, spaces were stored. I'm not sure why importing the
files into SQL tables cause them to change to <nulls> Maybe I didn't
check off some option during the import process?
Ex:
ItemColourCu_code... more fields here
11Walmart
12Walmart
13Walmart
2<null>Walmart <- problem here, it was blank in the DBF,
some items have a single record that is blank,
it will still be unique, just one " " value
for that cu_code/item combination
31Walmart
32Walmart
Your idea to incorporate another field is a great idea. You are right,
I will have the same problem elsewhere unless I add an orderdate (or
invoice #) to the key. I don't know how to get rid of the <nulls> for
the blank DBFs that were imported into SQL/
I was thinking of replacing the blanks in the DBF with a dummy symbol
(say *) before importing into SQL format. Then I'd use OSQL to replace
the dummy with " ". Is there an easier way?
Thanks again.

It would seem that replacing the "*" with a space would be redundant,
since you're just inserting a "holding character" until you get valid
data, and that holding character can be an asterisk as easily as a
space.

There must be some OSQL statement that I can use.
In anycase, is there a simple way to change all the <null> values to
blank spaces? I know I can use the server explorer to browse and edit
values, but certain tables have 1000's of <null> values in certain columns.
Thanks

You can change NULLs to another character(s) using an update like this:
UPDATE table_name
SET column_name = '*'
WHERE column_name IS NULL
I'd use an actual character, 'cuz some query results thru other
applications (MS Access) will seem to be a space (blank), but, in fact,
will be a NULL.
What I was trying to get at is this may not enable a PK to be
established on the columns you want to make a PK, because, putting a
character in the column may not make a unique PK. E.g.:
BEFORE:
item colour cu_code
NULL 1 9998
2 NULL 9998
NULL 1 9998
AFTER:
item colour cu_code
* 1 9998
2 * 9998
* 1 9998 <- violates PK constraint 'cuz equals row 1.

how to create parameterised views?

I am using SqlServer2005 and asp.net 2005. I have a large database for which I have to provide reports for it. I need a report that user will specify a date, and the report will be run, from this month & year and I will calculate the first day of the month and the last day of the month and these will serve as the input parameters for a long SELECT query.

For my previous reports i've used views . But for this functionality i need a parameterized view, which i cant create.

Please help me how to create a parameterized view...

Thanks in Advance...

Use a stored procedure.

|||

Given a date and if you need to find the first day of the month/last day of the month here's how you can do it.

DECLARE @.DdatetimeSET @.D =getdate()SELECT ,DATEADD(dd, -DATEPART(dd,GETDATE()) + 1,GETDATE())'First day of the month' ,DATEADD(d, -DAY(DATEADD(m,1,@.Date)),DATEADD(m,1,@.Date))AS'Last day of the month'

You can use the same in a view as follows:

SELECTFROM dbo.vwSomeViewWHERE DatecolumnBETWEEN @.begDateAND @.EndDate

|||

You can't create a parameterized view. You can create a view and then filter it. Or you can create a table valued function, which is pretty close to a parameterized view.

how to create my Validate Login SP IN sql 2000 ?

hi,all:

I'm new to Sql 2000,now I have a login asp.net page and I used the sql 2000 database.

my login page included a user id and password need user inputed. if the user input the correct userid

and password ,IE will transfer to main page,or there will show eorror message in login page.

my SP like this:

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Usp_Accounts_ValidateLogin
@.userid char(4) ,
@.EncPassword binary
AS
if (select count(*) from hhmxUserData whereUserid=@.userid andUserPWD=@.EncPassword) >0

return 1

else

return 0
GO
my asp.net code like this:

dim result As Integer

dim rowsAffected as integer

myConnection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = BuildIntCommand(storedProcName, parameters)
rowsAffected = command.ExecuteNonQuery
result = CInt(command.Parameters("ReturnValue").Value)
myConnection.Close()

Return result

I test it in sql 2000,it's ok.but when I performed it and retrieve the "returnValue", it still return 0 .

so how can I create my correct SP ?

thanks so much.

Change your datatype of userid from char(4) to varchar(4). When you use CHAR, if your user enter the userid which is less than 4 characters in length spaces will be added at the end and your search query may not look like what is should be.

|||

Yes,my UserID is fixed 4 characters length (like: 1012,1008),I think it's not problem,the point is I'm always get the wrong returnValue in my asp.net code when I performed my SP.

So maybe my SP has problem ?

|||

I would recommend you use OUTPUT parameters. check out Books On Line for more info.

check the 2nd part inthis articleto retrieve the output from OUTPUT variable.

How to create a assembly

Hi,

I have one ClassLibrary three member functions.I have the dll for this...Can some one please tell me how to create a Assembly in .NET.

I need to create a simple private assembly with the dll that i have.

Thanks

Did you check out the CLR programmability samples? See below link:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160894.aspx

You can use CREATE ASSEMBLY DDL to create assembly in SQL Server or use the Visual Studio GUI. See Books Online for more details.

|||

I am guessing that this is for SQL Server.

create assembly AssemblyName
from '<path>\AssemblyName.dll'
go

--Then you can declare the objects within using syntax like:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[DeployName](@.ParameterName [nvarchar](4000))
RETURNS [nvarchar](4000) WITH EXECUTE AS CALLER
AS
EXTERNAL NAME [AssemblyName].[RootNamespace.ClassName].[FunctionName]
GO

Or do you mean what you have to do to build the code to make the assembly ready for SQL Server?

Your idea i had to try first! Just here, I change my line of code from <Add key> to a connection string to myserver for instance hereby. But nothing looked good and still got the above problem. Could you pls show me the detail of creat a database and publish it to my Web Server. And i am waiting for anyone give me the BEST. God bless all of you!

How to count a very large volume of request

Hello,
What is the best way to accomplish the following.
1) An ASP.NET program (consiting of one file somepage.aspx) receives about
25,000,000 requests pay day.
2) The requests come from a limited set of IP addresses.
3) How to count the total number of request from each IP address per day.
SQL Server 2000 is used on the backend.
Currently we used the following architecture:
* Each request to somepage.aspx generates an INSERT into a LogTable1
* There is a clustered index on the LogTable1 on the dateStamp field which
is of the type smalldatetime
* The dateStamp field has a default that sets it to the getdate()
* At the end of each day at 12:01AM there is a simple query that runs and
does a group by to count the number of requests from each IP in the given
date range (past 24 hours). This query works great and takes only 2 minutes
to run.
Is there a better way to accomplish this without having to do INSERTS into
the LogTable1 for each request?
It would not work to have the ASP.NET program execute an UPDATE each time to
increment the total number of request, since this would cause LOTSSS of
locking in the database layer.
Thanks in advance.
ArsenYou could store the data in your Application Cache, and update it
periodically to the database.

|||Hi,
What about using the IIS log file?
you could set it in the way you need it, basically the client IP and maybe
the time, if you configure it to update daily all you have to do at 12:01
is run a process that read the file generated and do what you need.

|||Hi Kevin,
Do you suggest storing the TOTALs in the Cache?
Or storing the actual requests: date and ip
Would there be a locking problem?
How to do the "periodic updates" to the database from the Cache?

|||Hi Arsen,
You could put a DataTable in the Application Cache, and add records to it
with each Request. As for periodic updating, you could put a routine in the
Session_OnStart Sub that checks an Application DateTime variable, and at
certain intervals, inserts all the records from the DataTable into the
database and clears out the DataTable.
To be safe, you would want to add code to your Application_OnEnd sub to
update the database if the Application stops or times out; however, with 25M
requests per day, that might not be necessary.

how to copy sql database?

Hi there
I make a database called "TEST" for the template in ms sql 2000 server, and
I want to run VB.net to create another database called "TEST_COPY" in same
sql 2000 server and I want to transfer anything the "TEST" has (like tables
with data, views,stored procedure, trigger, role etc), how can I make a copy
in VB.net?
Thanks
Tony
Tony,
If you want everything (as it seems you do), then the easiest (assuming that
you have the needed rights) is to issue the following commands.
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO TestBackupFileName
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM TestBackupFileName WITH REPLACE

|||Dear Russell
when I use this you suggested
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO TestBackupFileName
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM TestBackupFileName WITH REPLACE
I change the first one to
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO disk='C:\TestBackFileName'
and it is works
and then when I use second one,
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM disk='C:\TestBackFileName' WITH REPLACE
I got Error as follow:
Server: Msg 1834, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The file 'C:\TEST.mdf' cannot be overwritten. It is being used by database
'TEST'.
Server: Msg 3156, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

'TEST'.
Server: Msg 3156, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

to identify a valid location for the file.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

When I use with move as follow:
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM disk ='C:\TestBackupFileName' with Recovery,
move 'TEST.mdf' to 'C:\TEST_COPY.mdf', move 'TEST.ldf' to 'C:\Test_copy.ldf'
I got other error as follow
Server: Msg 3234, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Logical file 'TEST.mdf' is not part of database 'TEST_COPY'. Use RESTORE

How can I keep doing with the copy like you suggested?

Sorry that my shorthand answer was not specific enough.
You will also need to use the option (from the BOL):
MOVE 'logical_file_name' TO 'operating_system_file_name'
Specifies that the given logical_file_name should be moved to
operating_system_file_name. By default, the logical_file_name is restored to
its original location. If the RESTORE statement is used to copy a database
to the same or different server, the MOVE option may be needed to relocate
the database files and to avoid collisions with existing files. Each logical
file in the database can be specified in different MOVE statements.
This keeps the file from trying to overwrite the active database.

how to copy sql database?

Hi there
I make a database called "TEST" for the template in ms sql 2000 server, and
I want to run VB.net to create another database called "TEST_COPY" in same
sql 2000 server and I want to transfer anything the "TEST" has (like tables
with data, views,stored procedure, trigger, role etc), how can I make a copy
in VB.net?
Thanks
TonyTony,
If you want everything (as it seems you do), then the easiest (assuming that
you have the needed rights) is to issue the following commands.
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO TestBackupFileName
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM TestBackupFileName WITH REPLACE

when I use this you suggested
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO TestBackupFileName
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM TestBackupFileName WITH REPLACE
I change the first one to
BACKUP DATABASE TEST TO disk='C:\TestBackFileName'
and it is works
and then when I use second one,
RESTORE DATABASE TEST_COPY FROM disk='C:\TestBackFileName' WITH REPLACE
I got Error as follow:

Sorry that my shorthand answer was not specific enough.
You will also need to use the option (from the BOL):
MOVE 'logical_file_name' TO 'operating_system_file_name'
Specifies that the given logical_file_name should be moved to
operating_system_file_name. By default, the logical_file_name is restored to
its original location. If the RESTORE statement is used to copy a database
to the same or different server, the MOVE option may be needed to relocate
the database files and to avoid collisions with existing files. Each logical
file in the database can be specified in different MOVE statements.
This keeps the file from trying to overwrite the active database.

How to copy db to production server

I've developing a small asp.net app that is using SQL Server (developer
edition on my PC). I am ready to deploy my app on my web server/space (that
I am renting from a hosting company) for further testing before we go live.
I need to copy my database from my sql server instance to a sql server
instance at my host's facility. I am able to connect to that server via
enterprise manager. Is the Copy Database Wizard the way to go here, or
should export a script and then run that on the web sql server instance? I
do not have much data in my db, so I don't have to copy the data, but it
would be nice.

I would put all code under version control, and that includes any data
you may have tables that you pre-load. (Fixed lookup tables and such).
Then I would install the database on the production server from those
scripts.
