Error messae:

I was trying to execute a multiple INSERT to… So, I found a good solution, that’s sample, I’m using an Table Identity Column ID_XX on relationchip see:

- You will test a SELECT using a DECLARE after you INSERT, ex:

INSERT INTO TAB1 (Atribute_1, Atribute_2)
VALUES (‘Value 2′, ‘Value 2′);

– So on TAB1 the ID_XX is equals 1

declare @ID_XX AS INT SET @ID_XX = (select ID_XX from TAB1 where Atribute_1 = ‘Value 1′ and Atribute_2 = ‘Value 2′)

IF (@ID_XX) IS NOT NULL

BEGIN

INSERT INTO TAB2 (Atribute_1, Atribute_2)
VALUES(’1′, @ID_XX);

Any doubt?
You may do that a big sequence of insert on many tables using variables

I found this great query which helps document databases. I have two columns defined in one table in particular which are datetime fields. Since we don’t have plans to go to SQL 2008 anytime soon, I want to return the time, rather than the datetime and parse it out in C# (lazy?).

So I would like to implement that great query with the time conversion above, but the query says syntax error near ‘c’.

Hopefully this is just a simple no-brainer. I’ll keep banging away at it but perhaps somebody could simply look at it and say ‘Duh, you moron. You need to do…’

Here we go:

SELECT
column_name= case c.name when ‘OnlyBuildIfGreaterThan’ then
Convert(varchar(10) c.name, 108)
when ‘OnlyBuildIfLessThan’ then
Convert(varchar(10) c.name, 108)
else
c.name
end as c.name
datatype=t.name,
length=c.length
FROM sysobjects o INNER JOIN syscolumns c ON o.id = c.id
inner join systypes t on c.xtype=t.xtype
where o.xtype=’U’ and o.name in (
‘CancelDataWareHouseBuild’)
order by o.name,c.colid
