How to Script Muplitple SPROCS/VIEWS at one time

In Enterprise Manager one can select several SPROCS/VIEWS using the
CONTROL key and then Right-Click to script out those objects.
Alternativly, pressing CONTROL-C copies, to the clipboard, the T-SQL to
create the selected objects.
SQL Management Studio seems to only allow you to script one object at a
time.
Is there a way in SQL Management Studio to select multiple objects and
generate create or modify scripts?Hi, naviagte to the database node and script the objects using the
wizard, select only the procedures you want to script.

How to retrieve primary key columns from db?

Hello all. I need to extract the column names that form the primary key group on a table in SQL Server. I have a table called Account and it contains ten columns. The primary key consists of two columns - MasterAccountID, AccountID. This primary key is a unique constraint and is clustered (it acts as an index as well as a primary key group). I have tried the following to no avail:

exec sp_pkeys Account -> returns no rows

exec sp_helpindex Account -> throws an error stating that the object 'Account' does not exist

If I run the following SQL statement, I can see all of the PK_* constraints in the database, so I know they are there:

select * from information_schema.table_constraints
where constraInt_type IN ('PRIMARY KEY','FOREIGN KEY')

Again, I need to be able to specify a table name and have it return the columns (don't care if it returns extra fields) that make up the primary key fields for that table. Thanks!

Perhaps something like this:

select

*fromsyscolumnswhere id=object_id('yourTable')and colidin(select colidfromsysindexkeyswhere id=object_id('yourTable'))

|||

declare

@.TableNamevarchar(255)

set

@.TableName='tblPersons'

SELECT

CCU.*

FROM

INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Table_Constraints TCJOININFORMATION_SCHEMA.Constraint_Column_Usage CCUON CCU.CONSTRAINT_NAME= TC.CONSTRAINT_NAME

WHERE

CONSTRAINT_TYPE

='PRIMARY KEY'AND TC.TABLE_NAME= @.TableName

but this also works: look at the quotes ''

execsp_pkeys'tblPersons'

How to retrieve Data from SQL Server?

Let us suppose that there are 900 rows in One table, and that table contains neither primary key, nor Identity column.

How can I retrieve all the roows from 201 to 250?(like the middle limits)

In oracle there is a property called RowID, but is there any such item in SQL server?

Nope. All tables should have a primary key. If there isn't one, make one. If you can't make one, then you have a data design issue you need to fix.

How to retrieve all information abt all constraints inorder to drop and recreate

Hello,
I need to retrieve all the information about all the foreign key constraints,inorder to store them temporarily (to be deleted later)and then recreated after making the necessary modifications to the concerned tables.
The stored proc sp_helpconstraint shows all the constraint types, their user-defined or system-supplied name, the columns on which they have been defined, and the expression that defines them.But I don't know whether it can be manipulated to get what I want.I need to get it done programmatically..so that I can integrate it in my program which I'm building up progressively.
Any help or scripts would be appreciated!First step - dropping:

select 'alter table '+TABLE_NAME+ ' DROP CONSTRAINT '+CONSTRAINT_NAME
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
where CONSTRAINT_TYPE='FOREIGN KEY'|||i first need to store the information about the constraints before dropping them, so that they can be recreated later after the necessary changes have been made..i have 200+ tables...any tips?|||select *
INTO TempConstraintStore
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
where CONSTRAINT_TYPE='FOREIGN KEY'

select 'alter table '+TABLE_NAME+ ' DROP CONSTRAINT '+CONSTRAINT_NAME

where CONSTRAINT_TYPE='FOREIGN KEY'

INSERT INTO INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
SELECT * FROM TempConstraintStore

or something like that|||INSERT into system tables...hmmmmmmm

No thanks...

Just go in and Script the contraints and save the script

Do the drops, necessary changes have been made..then rerun the script

What are the changes?

If RI is out of wack the constraints will fail....|||i'm aware that scripting the constraints using EM would make life easier,but no such luck for me..it has to be done using TSQL..i'm using the information schemas to retreive info,like referential_constraints, columns,constraint_column_usage..is that enough??|||try to use SQL-DMO with something like that (VBS):

How to Re-Structure Form After adding an Identity

I'd created a dataform from a table stored in a SQL database, after that I changed the primary key field to be an identity, refreshed the dataset but when I execute the program, it raises an exception when I try to save the record after adding a new one asking me for the value of this field. What can I do to be sure it will be created automatically?

Move the thread here in order to get more helpful answers.

Hi Juan,

I'm not sure why this got moved here, it seems like a problem with the DataSet definition...

It would help to have the actual error you're getting, but my guess is that the field you added didn't acutally get the Identity proprty set correctly, so it is not generating new values automatically. When you try to add a new record, there is no value specified for your PK so you get the error. Verify that the field works correctly outside of your DataSet, if it doesn't, then you have a problem with the table, if it does, then there is something wrong with your DataSet.

Mike

|||Ok. I've got the answer. After change the datatype in the table as IDENTITY, and refresh the dataset, the identity atribute in the dataset field does not change automatically. Thanks Mike
