RE: SQL Global String Replace
I agree with Ben...this is something that you should be running in SQL Management Studio. ColdFusion is not meant to run this kind of stuff (unless you set the timeout on your templates to 0). The code attached below will loop over all of the user tables, and then loop over all of the text type columns for that table while writing out an update statement. Send your results to Text in the query window. Then you can cut and paste the text results into a new query window and run it. Make sure you change the text values to be changed and what they are going to be changed to. Also, if your tables follow a naming convention, you can add that to the first cursor declaration as an additional where clause... DECLARE @tableName NVARCHAR(255), @objectID BIGINT, @columnName NVARCHAR(255), @TextToReplace NVARCHAR(1000), @ReplaceTextWith NVARCHAR(1000) SET @TextToReplace = 'www.mysite.com' SET @replaceTextWith = 'www.mynewsite.com' DECLARE userTables CURSOR FOR SELECT name, object_id FROM sys.tables WHERE [type] = 'U' OPEN userTables FETCH NEXT FROM userTables INTO @tableName, @objectID WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN PRINT 'UPDATE ' + @tableName + ' SET ' /* Select the columns from the table where the data type is a text type column Text- 35 sql_variant - 98 ntext - 99 varchar - 167 char- 175 nvarchar- 231 nchar - 239 */ DECLARE userColumns CURSOR FOR SELECT name FROM sys.columns WHERE object_id = @objectID AND system_type_id IN (35,98,99,167,175,231,239) OPEN userColumns FETCH NEXT FROM userColumns INTO @columnName WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN PRINT '[' + @columnName + '] = REPLACE([' + @columnname + '], ''' + @TextToReplace + ''', ''' + @ReplaceTextWith + '''),' FETCH NEXT FROM userColumns INTO @columnName END CLOSE userColumns DEALLOCATE userColumns PRINT '1=1' PRINT 'GO' PRINT ' ' FETCH NEXT FROM userTables INTO @tableName, @columnName END CLOSE userTables DEALLOCATE userTables Original Message > From: "Robert Harrison" > Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2014 7:19 AM > To: "cf-talk" > Subject: RE: SQL Global String Replace > > Actually, that's the kind of operation that you'd not want to perform in CF (or PHP or any other database client).

RE: SQL Global String Replace
Take a look at the sys.tables and sys.columns tables in your SQL database. You should be able to write a couple of cursors to loop over each and just print out the SQL to run separately (or you can get fancy and generate the SQL statement and run it via EXEC sp_executeSQL functions). I don't have my SQL server handy but can take a look later. -- Jeff -Original Message- From: Robert Harrison [mailto:rob...@austin-williams.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2014 6:56 AM To: cf-talk Subject: SQL Global String Replace Does anyone have an update program that can update a text string in all tables/rows/columns of an MS SQL data base?

Re: sql injection attempt
Yes indeed. We had some attempts to injection attack via a fake useragent variable in the CGI scope, as we were logging visiting useragents in a database table. Luckily they were not able to execute any code thanks to tight SQL permissions, but the code they were trying to execute was written to the table. I'd not even thought of that method till we saw it. But something to have an eye on. Regards, Ian.

Starting with SQL Server Express 2008 R2 (and maybe some prior versions), you can download an installer that includes the SSMS tools, which I think includes SSIS as well. -Carl V.

We use Tomahawk Backup on some of our web servers to back up the website code and images to both local and off-site storage.

Re: SQL Query Problem
Right, but if that table grows and columns are added, the overhead on your query will grow. Having a small table makes it even easier to define the columns in your select list. And, if you have any dynamic code that relies on your column list it will likely break if you end up adding columns to the table. Or if you have to hand off your code to another developer they can't simply look at your query statement and glean what's being returned without having access to the db or without dumping the query.columnList. There's just so many reasons why defining your column list is a good idea, and none where not defining it is. Not trying to preach, but this bit of "convenience" is just so unnecessary and has such potential for problems that it's not even worth considering in my opinion. It's just such a horrible habit. Anyway, as you were. :) On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 5:15 PM, Jenny Gavin-Wear < jenn...@fasttrackonline.co.uk> wrote: > > I was waiting for a comment on that. > > It's a very small table :) > > >>-Original Message- > >>From: Michael Grant [mailto:mgr...@modus.bz] > >>Sent: 21 June 2011 19:46 > >>To: cf-talk > >>Subject: Re: SQL Query Problem > >> > >> > >> > >>Off topic, but the "Select *" made me shudder. > >> > >> > > > > ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:345510 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: SQL Quandary
It can be. Taking your last example: IF (SELECT checkProjected FROM tbl_Params WHERE siteID = 1) = 1 select projected from tbl_stockItems where projected > 10 else select projected from tbl_stockItems where projected <10 This can be written as: select projected from tbl_stockItems where ( (SELECT checkProjected FROM tbl_Params WHERE siteID = 1) = 1 AND projected > 10 ) OR ( (SELECT checkProjected FROM tbl_Params WHERE siteID = 1) <> 1 AND projected < 10 ) Since the subquery clause can only be true for one of the AND clauses, only one set of results will be returned. -- WSS4CF - WS-Security framework for CF http://wss4cf.riaforge.org/ On 23 May 2011 09:29, Jenny Gavin-Wear wrote: > > because the intention is not a simple WHERE search expression. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344832 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

RE: SQL Quandary
Thanks Russ, I agree, I can't see a way around it using CASE or JOINS. The closest I can get to what I want is this: IF (SELECT checkProjected FROM tbl_Params WHERE siteID = 1) = 1 select projected from tbl_stockItems where projected > 10 else select projected from tbl_stockItems where projected <10 That SQL isn't exactly it, of course, but it demonstrates the aim. I have this nagging feeling it could be done in a better way, but at least this solution means the work is done by SQL and not after it gets to CF.

Re: SQL Quandary
if there is no relationship between tableC and the other tables, which seems to be the case, then there is no way to JOIN then thus I cannot see how you can directly influence the result set. If you are simply needing to change the query based on a single value, then you could do it as a stored procedure and then pass in the value from table C as a parameter to dynamically build your where clause using CASE statements this way.

RE: SQL Quandary
Hi Russ, Thanks for the reply ... 3 tables, for example. Table A, productsm Table B product options, linked on the stockID. Table C, some site parameters. So it's: Select stuff from Table and Table B, but if a value changes in a column in table C, run a different selection. IF table_C.column = "this value", add something to the WHERE, but IF table_C.column = "some other value", add something else to the WHERE. Like I say, doing it by returning all the results to CF and then using CFIF/where clauses works fine, I just want it all to happen in SQL, if possible.

It would be easier to refer to this 3rd table if you supply the table.columnname so we know what were talking about. what is the relationship between this table and the other tables in the query, and from where does the value come that you want to compare it with.

Re: SQL selecting distinct items by date?
You could add the fields you need to your query then do a GROUP on the CFOUTPUT. That will then be able to weed through the duplicates caused by differences in the data. Also could/should eliminate the need to add queries within your loop.

I should have addressed that first before attempting to add anything else to the mix. I'm done installing my Windows updates for the evening, so I'll tackle this again in the morning.

Not ColdFusion itself, but the database drivers used by ColdFusion and the cached (pooled) data source settings. Changing the Datasource to not used pooled settings might eliminate the caching of the database columns and types.

When that is done, database drivers are know to cache the columns and datatypes of the SQL queries. Then somebody comes along and changes the database structure, like you adding a field. Now the database structure does not match the cached structure stored by the database driver and this type of disconnect occurs. The solution: Replace those p.* and pt.* short cuts with that actual columns you need in your record set. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:341804 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: SQL query question
This might be an issue I've had to deal with before. Do something to change the "fingerprint" (no idea what the correct term would be) of the query - or restart cf. By change the "fingerprint", it could be something as simple ad swapping p.* and pt.* (swapping as in their ordinal position in the select clause). In the past, what has happened is I'll have some query with at least one * in the select statement followed by one or more columns and I add a column to whatever I was selecting * from. If the query stays the same, it uses the same result-set template (again, im making up words - no idea what its really called) It doesn't know to check the underlying structure of the table. But the newly added column gets returned by the db - offsetting all the columns in the rest of the result set. So as crazy as it sounds - just change something in the sql, and give it a try. It doesn't have to actually change anything about what the query does - adding ,getdate() as helloworld will fix it - and then you can undo the change after one successful run. I assume this is something on CF's side - as restarting the CF service also fixes it.

Ugh That just means that the field is in both (multiple) tables and the database wants you to tell it which table you want to use to get the value for this column to use in this record set. Just prepend that column name with a table name. You seem to be doing that in all the fields except the 'Make' field in the ORDER BY clause.

Re: SQL Join Woes
I guess it could be both. While some part numbers can fit multiple years, makes, and models of a vehicle others just fit one. The top 200 are our best selling radiators. In theory, i want to hit the master table, pull out all the information on the radiator based on the part number being supplied from the top 200. Here is a query with all the fields from the Master table, and the Top 200 table has nothing but a part number: SELECT GriffinDataRevised.PartNumber, GriffinDataRevised.Make, GriffinDataRevised.Model, GriffinDataRevised.Year, GriffinDataRevised.Engine, GriffinDataRevised.Edition, GriffinDataRevised.TransCooler, GriffinDataRevised.OilCooler, GriffinDataRevised.HorsePower, GriffinDataRevised.Comments, GriffinDataRevised.Outlets, GriffinDataRevised.TubeSize, GriffinDataRevised.Rows, GriffinDataRevised.CoreSize, GriffinDataRevised.Revision FROM GriffinDataRevised INNER JOIN Top200 ON GriffinDataRevised.PartNumber = Top200.part_number WHERE GriffinDataRevised.PartNumber = Top200.part_number ORDER BY Make DESC Does that help? Thank you so much for bearing with me. On another not, the query that brought back 98 results may have been working right, i found another 78 records in another table for race car radiators, i'm almost guessing that the last few are in another table that would make the total 200 records. But i'm now getting an error that the part_number field is ambiguous. Ugh Thank you!

Re: SQL Join Woes
Hello Ian and thank you! I have tried both the left and right joins, the RIGHT join brought back the 15k results again, the LEFT join was bringing back so many that i killed the browser before it hurt something :) JOINS: SELECT * FROM GriffinDataRevised LEFT OUTER JOIN Top200 ON GriffinDataRevised.PartNumber = Top200.Part_Number --This one seemed like a infinite loop was happening, crashed browser from results. SELECT * FROM GriffinDataRevised RIGHT OUTER JOIN Top200 ON GriffinDataRevised.PartNumber = Top200.Part_Number 15k results again So if i know that its true that the Top200 table has 200 distinct part numbers and that the information table may have all 200 part numbers why how would i accomplish just getting the matching results for the 200 part numbers in the GriffinData table? It may be possible that the 98 results are the only parts that exist in the larger information table. But my query was still running wrong, correct?

Re: SQL Join Woes
a standard join looks like this.. select foo from a join b on a.id = b.id So yours would look something like SELECT PartNumber FROM GriffinDataRevised d JOIN Top200 t on d.partnumber = t.part_number You're not technically doing a join, you're doing a sub query.

The return of 98 recrods would indicate that there are only 98 values of 'partnumber' that are in both tables. If that is expected and known behavior then what you want is an OUTER JOIN that says return all records from one table PLUS any records from the other table IF they match.

Re: SQL 2008 standard vs. web
A primary question to answer is whether you need the business intelligence tools that are part of the SQL Server platform, notably SSIS, which is not available in the Web edition. I use SSIS and SSRS extensively, so I have to use at least the Standard edition. You can always start with a cheap version and switch to the more expensive version later on, unless there is a feature of the Standard version that you know is essential, such as the disaster recovery features that only exist in the more expensive versions. -Mike Chabot On Wed, Jan 5, 2011 at 2:16 PM, Michael Dinowitz wrote: > > There are a few different versions of SQL 2008.

Has anyone used this and > have they had any problems? The engine itself should be essentially the same between editions, the main differences will be in the cost and licensing (how many CPUs, memory it can use, etc.). My understanding is that the Web edition is targeted at larger web hosting companies that need to offer SQL server as a back-end, or for larger single customers who have a large web infrastructure. It is only available under a volume licensing plan, so if you just want one copy you're likely better off purchasing standard (assuming that SQL Express doesn't meet your needs for free). -Justin ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340476 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: SQL 2008 standard vs. web
They're close, but not quite the same. The primary difference is the licensing . The other differences are around mirroring (web can only serve as a witness), publishing (web can only subscribe), and perf (web does not come with SQL Profiler).
