Hi ,
I have a staging table which have two column...say A and B which have different values.
A B
FBAT 20
TRAINING 30
INPUT 40
Now I need to get a different view from this...My new table should look like
D E
AMP 90
Where AMP is FBAT+TRAINING+INPUT. Also I need only the total value in my new table and not the individual record.
Can someone help me to figure this out?

To start off, we are running Server 2008 R2 - SQL Server. We are using a remote backup service (gillware) to handle off site backups. Our backup process looks like this Trigger -> Scan -> Local Backup (With timestamps) -> Remote Backup. The problem we are running into, because of timestamps, our remote backup service is filling up quick. Our trigger runs a batch file, that carries out the local backup, is there a way to add a command to this batch file that will pull the newest backups, rename with no timestamp, place them in another folder and then we can just backup that folder?
FUNCTION [dbo].[GetTotalSalary1_func] ( @emplID int, @month VARCHAR(50) = NULL ) RETURNS int AS BEGIN Declare @BSalaryHour int, @TotalSalary int, @TotalHoursWorked int Set @TotalHoursWorked = (Select OverallTime from MonthlyRecord where EmplID = @emplID AND Month = @month ) Set @TotalSalary = @BSalaryHour * @TotalHoursWorked -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Return the result of the function RETURN @TotalSalary END select dbo.GetTotalSalary1_func(5,'2013-dec')
it throws error on this line:
Set @TotalSalary = @BSalaryHour * @TotalHoursWorked
when @totalHoursWorked returned are like this 192:22 or 105:01 i guess bcz it can't multiply :22, :01 part with @BsalaryHour.
so how to do it ?
Note:
OverallTime is basically varchar(13)
When I run my SSRS report on Internet Explorer then how can I shift control on the next parameter. Using TAB we can shift controls but how to select the parameters without using mouse. I just want to use keyboard
Thanks
I'm creating a snapshot replication to push replication to another machine. I've set up the Publication and the Subscription jobs using the wizard. For now, I've set it up to run under the SQL Server Agent service account (although, I understand this is not best practices). I selected to impersonate the process account to connect to the publisher.
The problem is that when I run this from my account, I get the Error "Cannot connect to <destination machine>" ... "Failed to connect to <destination machine>" ... "Login failed for user <my account>"
It appears to be trying to do this from my account instead of from the service account I specified.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing incorrectly?
Hi,
Any one can briefly tell about the basic interview question's for sql dba.

Hello,
I am having a hard time finding information on how to extend the amount of time a table in SQL stores data. My default, I believe this is set to 30 days, however I would like to retain my data for certain tables to 90 days. Is this possible? Is there an easy way to do this without needing to write custom queries?
I have a server 2008 with 24gb of RAM. On it, there are 5 separate instances; some SQL2008 and some SQL2012.
In my Oracle databases that are in Windows environment, I normally reserve 30% (about 7gb) of RAM for OS. So this is what I'm doing as well for this server.
I allocated 10% of the remaining (about 1.5gb) to the max server memory to each of the default instance, instance 2, 3 and 4.
I allocated 50% of the remaining RAM (11gb++) to the max server memory to instance1 because it has a numerous databases and one particularly huge database (> 5tb) and about 10-15k rows inserted daily.
Question 1: Is that how you allocate RAM? Based on database size and activity?
Question 2: I have a user reporting that when she has bulk insert (1000++ rows) from an 3rd party application; the application hangs and nothing will get inserted. Her database (DBXYZ) is in instance 4. Could this be related to amount or RAMs allocated to instance 4?
Question 3: I was reading http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/paul/how-to-examine-io-subsystem-latencies-from-within-sql-server/ and executed the 2nd query. The read/write latency forDBXYZ are 111 and 571 respectively. Is that too high?
Question 4: The article mentioned "read and write hot spots are and then drill into a database to see what’s going on, and if nothing out of the ordinary" - what am I suppose to drill on the database and what's out of the ordinary?
Thanks

I am new to both ASP.NET and SQL Server.
I have IIS8 installed on my Windows 8 PC, together with SQL Server Express 2012. Given my ignorance, I have just set everything up using default values.
I have a very small web site set up in its own folder and set up in IIS 8 as a virtual folder under the default web site. I have also set up a very simple database called 'StockControl' via SSMS, which contains one table called 'Colours' which has two columns.
One page in the website is a simple ASP.NET form which runs on localhost without any problems.
On the second page in the website I added a GridView ASP.NET control, letting Expression Web 4 generate the connection string and place it in a web.config file. I tested the SQL query and the connection as I went along and both came back as successful. So far, so good.However, when I try to run the page in the browser I get the error message:
An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below. |

I have spent two days trying to find out what I have done wrong and even uninstalled and re-installed SQL Server just in case i'd totally messed up and corrupted the database.
I would really appreciate some help please.
Hi,
When a query is executed what happens internally? How it give results?
when i execute my store procedure:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetEmailAdd_Sp]
@emplid int
AS
BEGIN
Declare @emplEmail varchar(50)
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
Set @emplEmail = (Select emailAdd from HrEmployee where EmplID = @emplid)
return @emplEmail
END
then it throws error when i execute:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'anyemail@precisetech.com.pk' to data type int.
