Redesign database - Create or copy existed forms

Hello all,
My company redesign the database. I have about 20 forms that work with the old database. what is the best way for me to make all my forms work with the new database? Create all the forms or just copy what I need for the forms?
Thank you for answering the question
Jenny

Hi,
As you said the database is redesigned, if you copy the forms in such situation, the forms will refer to the old schema.
So according to me creating forms would be better option in this case.

Syntax error in Logical database created by copying standard PGQ

Hi guys.
I created a logical database ZMPQ_PGQ using the copy option from SE36 with the input PGQ (logical database used by QA33).
But it showing some syntax error Field "PGQ_SP" is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement.
How to resolve this?
Thanks in advance.

When checking the syntax of the LDB source code, go to the location of the syntax error (in include DBZMPQ_PGQSXXX), and change all internal table references of PGQ_SP to ZMPQ_PGQ_SP.

Is it possible to create a copy of entire database, not the data, but just database structure?

Greetings community,
This question is related to EXPRESS edition.
Let’s say that I have MyDatabase2014 and I’ve been populating it with some data during the year 2014. Before the end of the year, I want to prepare another database named MyDatabase2015, which should be empty, but of course it should have
all tables, relations, indexes and stored procedures just like MyDatabase2014. The idea is just to change a connection string and to continue using the same app for the same job.
So in SSMS, I right-clicked the database, choose script database as / create to / new query, but I didn’t get what I wanted. In query window I’ve got just create database statement, and below that few dozen of alter database set ansi this
or that statements, and set many other things. However, no table creation was scripted. Also, no stored procedures have been created, and about users, and other security objects better not to start to talk about.
I could have achieved that simply by right-clicking databases node and select new database. So what’s the point of “script database as”?
Does this work in SQL server editions other than EXPRESS?
When it comes to express edition, what’s the best practice to get the empty copy of a database?
Thanks for any help.

For scripting out the users and their permissions you can use this script

Create a copy of active database using T-SQL.

I have a requirement to create a copy of existing active (currently in use) database through code.
I need to copy all objects which include tables, stored procs, triggers, functions, foreign keys, constraints, primary keys, etc... from source DB to new DB.
Both databases can be in different servers where I have access to both the servers. I also need to copy data for some tables....
It is exactly what copy database wizard is doing... but I want to do it through T-SQL code.....
is it possible?

This doesn't sound like too easy task. I tried to search, but the best I found so far was Freeware SQL Script Generate utility
I do have a blog to generate all stored procedures
How to script all stored procedures in a database
but this is only a small part of the task. Brad Schulz has a blog to generate table creation/insert statements. I don't remember seeing the complete free T-SQL solution for all SQL Server database objects.

Error while creating connection pool "FATAL: database "null" does not exist

Hi,
Iam trying to create a XA connection pool using postgres driver (postgresql-8.3-603.jdbc3.jar) on Weblogic 8.1.6.0 from the Admin Console.
I have provided the following info in the JDBC config
Driver Class Name: org.postgresql.xa.PGXADataSource.
JDBC URL: jdbc:postgresql://192.168.192.112:5432/sample1
UserName: postgres
Password: Postgres
When i click Test Driver Configuration. Iam getting the following error
"FATAL: database "null" does not exist"
if i change the Driver Class Name to "org.postgresql.Driver", it is working fine. But as iam trying to create XA datasource i need to use the XA Driver class name.
Can someone tell me how to resolve this issue ?
The postgres version iam using is 8.3.1

Hi Joe,
The driver is in the classpath.

How to import database created in Excel to appropriate fields in a PDF form?

I am trying to use Database created in Excel to fill multiple PDF Visa application forms.
The fields in PDF forms are basically the same except the order of appearance on the
form could be different. However the field names remain the same in all PDF Visa Application forms.
Can anyone make me wiser?
Appreciate all suggestions.
Sajith Panduka

If you export to a tab delimited format and the first row contains the exact field names of the fields in the form (order doesn't matter), then you can import a row of data into the form using Acrobat. You can also automate the process using JavaScript in Acrobat.

Creating a copy of an existing JTable that does not have source code.

Hi
I am working on a java swing based application. We used a third party API for JTable for showing some data in a table format and also for printing function. As of now print button is printing the whole table being shown in the application. Our new requirement of printing is �Users don�t want to print all the columns being shown in the application and they wanted to have print of columns whatever they would like to see�.
The above requirement can be fulfilled if I can have a copy of the existing table. Unfortunately we don�t have the source code of the table being shown in the application as we are using 3rd party libraries. Had the source code been there I could have implemented cloneable interface or proto type pattern.
Can some body help me how can I create a copy of the existing table? Basically the high level approach I thought of is create a new object of the table class and copy the properties/attributes of the existing table to the new table object. But I don�t know what attributes should be copied so that I can have the copy of the original table and how to construct (code) this new table.
I would be very grateful if some one could help me with this.
Thanks & Regards
Srini

I understood your suggestion. But it would be very difficult to migrate as it requires lot of changes across different tabs of the existing application. This application was developed around 6 years ago. And this change would require lot of regression testing too.
Do you have any idea of creating the copy of the available JTable object?

Help plss Should a cursor be created in database or program unit in forms l

Where can i create a cursor should it be in database i.e isql plus using internet explorer or should i create the cursor in forms
forms can i create the cursor so that i can use the cursor in the post item trigger of the userid item of login page
Can i create the cursor in a package specification and how can i call that cursor into a post_text item trigger
details below
Iam working on a Online exam for students Dummy project using forms
The student 1st comes to a WELCOME page i.e form which asks him if he is a new student or registered stud
If he clicks registered pushbutton it takes him to a LOGIN page where there are two items userid and password.I am using a Validate_item OR Post_item trigger to fire after the student enters his userid.
I need to compare the entered userid with the userid stored in the database STUDENTS table which i created which consists of the registered students details.
Our project Guide suggested that we create a cursor and fetch each userid everytime into the cursor and compare the entered userid with the cursor.

hi Sqlstar,
Regarding to your all questions , i prefered that you search for a simple document or book in order to understand much more more about creating cursors.
however since this forum made to help people and to make a integerated community i would be glad to offer my help and going with you step bt step with your answers.
as for beginning
1) when you create the user_exists function in database , if you want to call it in the form level you would wirte a code like this
----WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM------------user_id item---------
IF scheme_name.procedure_name(:block1.userid)!='TURE' then
   message('User Name is not correct');
   raise form_trigger_failure;
end if;
2) it's not a waste of recourse to make 2 validation of both userid and password
and as same you create a procedure for useris you should create a procedure for password where the user id is the outcomming of userid item in the form.
3)you have all choices to create the 2 procedures on database side or in the program unit at design time for the form it's up to you and as a small hint for you ,
when you create them in the program unit and want to call the procedures in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger you should denote the procedure name with the name of package first as following
-------[Package Spec Code]-------
PACKAGE user_validation IS
function user_exists (p_user_id number) return boolean;
end ;
--------------[Package Body Code]------
PACKAGE BODY user_validation IS
function user_exists (p_user_id number) return boolean
is
user_number number;
cursor c_user_id is
select user_id from <user_table>
where user_id=p_user_id;
begin
open c_user_id ;
loop
fetch user_id into user_number ;
return (true);
exit when c_user_id%NOTFOUND;
end loop;
execption when others then
return(false);
end user_exists;
end;
-----Calling at Validation level-----------
IF (user_validation.user_exists(:block1.userid))!=TURE then
   message('User Name is not correct');
   raise form_trigger_failure;
end if;
i hope this could be helpful engouh to start your application
Good Luck .
Regards
Omar

Calc Scripts run a lot faster after I copy existing database

Hi,
I have user being setup as the Application Designer of the application and each time when he run scripts of the database, it takes a lot longer than myself (I'm the Supervisor). The database was built up from scratch, so it is not database copy version. Could this be user specific problem?
Today, I create another copy of the database within the same application, create a new Scenario, load data, run multiple similar scripts and the time to run all scripts were alot faster when I run from initial database. Is this a coincidence or the performance has indeed improved?
Your advice is much appreciated!
Between, Im running on Essbase 7.1.3.0
Thank you

So are you saying you are the one to run the scripts after initial DB load?
What are the index and page size before and after you run the scirpts?
It is somewhat normal for the inital dataload and agg to run faster than subsequent runs of the agg, this is because typically inital data load is level 0 only members. The agg of the database will then create blocks for upper level members, thereby increasing the DB size. So there are more index entries, as well as blocks to parse thru.
That being said, if there is considerable increase in agg time, there may be more to address (fragmentation, block size, dynamic calc on sparse members, etc).

Can I copy existing website (under Azure) and re deploy to create new one?
YCh7

Yes you can.
Install "Microsoft Web Matrix" on your Machine.
Then go to the portal>web apps and select the one you want to copy. Then click on WebMatrix in bottom right. Your WebMatrix will pop up. Click "Edit a Local Copy".
Thats the easy solution for creating a local copy and redeploying it.

How to create a copy of an existing statndad view

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement. I have to copy the view BP_DATA/AccountRelationshipsOV in the component BP_DATA and again use it in the component BP_HEAD. When i tried creating copy by right clicking on the view and selecting copy option its creating the copy of the view but when i am using the view in the component BP_HEAD by using the component interface of the copied view, its throwing some run time exception on the UI. Please help.
Also is there any other way of copying the view other than the one i used above?
Regards,
Udit.

Hi Udit,
Unfortunately there is no way to copy a view from one component another the way we understand copy-paste. However, if your requirement is to reuse BP_DATA/AccountRelationshipsOV (or its copy you already created) in BP_HEAD, then you need to do the following:
In BP_DATA component:
1. Create a new window.
2. Add the copy to this new window in runtime repository editor.
3. Expose this new window from runtime repository editor.
In BP_HEAD component:
1. Declare a new usage for component BP_DATA, view (new window you create above)
2. Add the usage view to the concerned view area.
You also need to make sure that the context nodes are properly bound for the data flow.
Regards,
Shiromani
P.S. What was the runtime exception?
