    View Created in db1.table? Select out of db2.leases?

    Back again, I'm trying to write this View and it continues to fail. I honestly don't know what is going wrong. As I mentioned earlier. I'm having to create the View in one db and then query the data to another db. The tables in both db's are different. I'm just trying to get to the second db to...

    View Created in db1.table? Select out of db2.leases?

    Greetings, I'm trying to write a view that resides in one db1."table" (that doesn't contain the same table as db2) and selects from db2.Lease table. Both db's are in the same SQL Server. I thought I read somewhere that a view you are executing (selecting) from an application had to have reside...

    Group By Problem

    Greetings, I'm pretty slow at SQL for as long as I've been associated with SQL Server. But non the less... I have a query that runs correctly until I attempt to add a group by. I know it must be something not too difficult, but, I'm at a loss. select [Entry No_], [Sale No_], [Posting Date]...

    DB Migration and dbid Mismatch

    I'm using DBArtisan's DataUpload wizard and I have moved the dumps from the other machine to the new SQL Server's local machine . The reason I had to move the dumps (memory key migration, the new "sneaker net") is that a non-sa/dba web designer kept moving everything around before I arrived in...

    DB Migration and dbid Mismatch

    Approx. 7 years ago when I was a full-time, large systems dba, dbid's had to match or the system catalogs wouldn't link the db to the system's objects and nothing would recover (this was Sybase: MS SQL Servers source code). If this isn't the case, then how does the SQL Server function currently?

    Need to Migrate db's to a new machine and SQL Server ...

    I'd love to use it or DBArtisan 8.0, but I can't get to the machine on the Domain. I can access it locally, but I can't perform any network(ing) connectivity to migrate objects (dbs).

    select * - slow

    If nothing else, SELECT * is selecting all the data from all of your rows. That is 70,000 rows x 28 columns = 1.96 million / 4 minutes (240 seconds) = 8,16666...7 rows per second. It also depends on your system and if it is dedicated to the SQL Server or sharing resources.
