Hello!
I have a developer that is playing around with some SQL statements
using VB.NET. He has a test table in a SQL 2000 database, and he has
about 2000 generated INSERT statements.
When the 2000 INSERT statements are run in SQL query analyzer, all
2000 rows are added to the table. When he tries to send the 2000
statements to SQL Server through his app., a random number of
statements do not get executed. But, SQL Profiler shows that each of
the 2000 statements are getting sent to the server.
I suggested that he add a "GO" statement at the end of the INSERT
block, but the statement fails when that is sent to the server.
I know that this is not the ideal manner to insert bulk data to the
system, but now we are all just curious as to why SQL server doesn't
execute each individual INSERT.
Any thoughts? 3 6601
Hi Dmitri,
I have a developer that is playing around with some SQL statements
using VB.NET. He has a test table in a SQL 2000 database, and he has
about 2000 generated INSERT statements.
When the 2000 INSERT statements are run in SQL query analyzer, all
2000 rows are added to the table. When he tries to send the 2000
statements to SQL Server through his app., a random number of
statements do not get executed. But, SQL Profiler shows that each of
the 2000 statements are getting sent to the server.
How were the statements sent to SQL Server?
One batch with 2k statements or one statement per batch?
What about transactions (autocommit mode)?
What events were set to be captured by Profiler?
I suggested that he add a "GO" statement at the end of the INSERT
block, but the statement fails when that is sent to the server.
Wrong suggestion. "GO" is not an SQL statement and can be used only in
Query Analyzer (Enterprise Manager, Management Studio). It signals the
end of a batch to MSSQL utilities, SQL Server doesn't understand it at all.

Dmitri,
SQL Server doesn't just ignore transactions. If the statements are showing
up in SQL Server Profiler, then SQL is executing or attempting to execute
them. There may be other reasons why you are not getting the expected
results. Try these steps:
1. Backup the database.
2. Run a trace. Remove the Existing Connection and Audit events before
starting the trace. They are not necessary for this exercise and create
additional noise. You may want to set up a filter that captures only the
application being tested.
3. Save the trace as a SQL Script.
4. Restore the database.
5. Open the SQL Script and run it.
6. See if there are any errors or warnings that are not being trapped by the
VB.NET application.

Did he send one batch with 2000 statements, or 2000 batches? Without
seeing the code, it's difficult to know what we are talking about.
The most effective way of inserting data this way is:
INSERT tbl (....)
EXEC('SELECT ''thisvalue'', 1, ''thatvalue''
SELECT ''thisothervalu e'', 2, ''thatothervalu e''
...')
This keeps it down to one INSERT statement, but many small SELECT
statements that are easy to compile. (The alternative SELECT UNION
is very expensive to compile for 2000 rows.)

I have run into a strange problem with a site I am working on. My SELECT
queries work fine, but I just tried to add an UPDATE statement and it fails.
A test showed that INSERT fails also. I created a new table just for testing
called "blah" and it had the same results.
My statements:
"UPDATE GiftCerts SET Paid=1 WHERE CertSerial='2005-0001'"
and
"INSERT INTO blah (test) VALUES ('something')"

Hi,
I wonder if there is a nice bit twiddling hack to compare a large

If you first store them in an array, you can do:
for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
if (array != value) {
/* array differs from value, do something*/

which entries are to be run for that minute. The primary goal is, of
course, for the query to run as fast as possible.

Hi
I need to read in a large set of text files (9GB+ each) into a database
table based on fixed width lengths.
There are several ways to complete this, but I am wondering if anyone has
insight into the FASTEST way to read in the data and chop it up ahead of
posting it into the DB.
So far, things work, but they are far slower than expected.

Hello, is there is any snapshot element availble which could give the
no of uncommited Insert/Update/Delete stmts there were executed by an
application.
In the app shap I understand that this element "Update/Insert/Delete

executed after the connection has established.
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
I've been working on a large data extract and was wandering if anyone could take a look at the following code and offer any reasons why it takes such a long time compared to when i had it seperated out in steps with GO statements in a scheduled job.
It needs to:
1) delete all data on local tables
2) import all data from external source back into local tables
3) rebuild indexes on local tables

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
