Adding a line to a chart

Hi,
Does anyone know how to manually add a line to a chart in whatever location
I want without using any sort of dataset? Or is this even possible?
ThanksIt depends.
(1) If you do NOT have any dynamic series groupings in the chart, it is
easy. Just add another item in the "Values" section of the chart properties
dialog / data tab. For the value you can use a constant expression like
=10000 to get a line at y-axis value 10000.
(2) If you have a series grouping (e.g. group by year), then you would have
one "Value" (i.e. static series) for the actual value to be shown and you
would add a second "Value" for the line. Since you would want this line to
only show up once even though there are several series groups at runtime,
you have use an expression to show a constant value only for one particular
grouping value and Nothing for all other grouping values of the series
grouping.
You will find an example at the bottom of this posting based on Northwind
data. The example will need some careful study to see how to make the
constant line appear only once in the chart. Note: the additional legend
entries cannot be removed. The only alternative here is to not draw any
legend on the chart and use an expression to show certain datapoint labels
inside the chart e.g. only on the first datapoint of every series.

Add records in a table

Hi:
I need to add some records in a table called location(primary key:
loc_id). What I want to do is for each location in the table, I add
the same record but with a different loc_id, which can be a random
string. All the other column should contain the same value. Can anyone
give me a hint on how to do this in SQL server 2000 enterprise
manager?
thx."Hamilton sucks" <caof@.mcmaster.cawrote in message

INSERT INTO location (@.loc_id, col1, col2, ...)

Maybe he is generating test data?

That does not look like it would work out. :-)

As I understand Hamilton, he wants each copied row to have each own
new id. Using newid() this would be:

INSERT location (loc_id, col1, col2, ...)
SELECT convert(char(36), newid()), col1, col2, ...
FROM location

Obviously, this will not work if loc_id is shorter than 36 characters.
Hamilton could use substring, but obviously the short loc_id is the
bigger the possibility for duplicates.

Thanks, david for your help. The reason for copying records is that I
need to change them to new records, which are exactly the same as the
old records except one column value. The loc_id is the primary key but
it's not really used for searching information. So basically I don't
care about the loc_id as long as they are unique, that 's why i want
it to be random.|||On Sep 8, 4:38 am, Erland Sommarskog <esq...@.sommarskog.sewrote:

Maybe I should consult about the design. The table location holds the
location info about the local schools, each of them is linked to a
test group and a set of students. If I want to add a new test group,
which contains the same set of locations except that they are linked
to the new group. Should I create a new table or add new records into
tbl_location? The same problem holds for tbl_students as well since in
the new group, all students' status must be reset.|||"Hamilton sucks" <caof@.mcmaster.cawrote in message

Then they are not exactly the same. Insert the new rows together including
the NEW column value(s). That way you can add any relevent candidate key
constraints to your table - something that wouldn't be possible if the table
had to support transitional "copies" of the old data. Example:

INSERT INTO tbl (col1, col2, col3)
SELECT col1, @.new_col2, col3
FROM tbl
WHERE ... ? ;

add linked server

Hi ,
I have tried to add a linked server(sql2000) residing
at location B from Location A (a server computer ,using
SQL 7.0) but i got the error "general network error , pls
check network documentation" I have gotten the correct
login id & pwd from the user at the other end.
have also configured the port#(under Client Utility)
correctly for client connection and also triedthe
sp_addlinkedservers & sp_addsvrlogin already
Is there any dll file needed ? such as DBNET.dll ? to
add linked server from sql ver 7.0 to sql2000 ?
Does it need any specific version of the odbc driver
for SQL Server ? current it's version is 3.70.10.63 i have
tried to add and odbc link but still have the same error
I have no problem when using Query Analyzer from my
client computer AND the user from the other end is able to
add my sqlserver successfully as a linked server. The odbc
driver for SQL Server is 3.85.xx.xx
Appreciate if somebody could help me out as i am doing
some data migration which i have set up some DTS jobs to
copy data daily over instead of one big chunks the day
before migration
many thksmaxzim
Can you show us your creation script?
This example works without creating a linked server
declare @.pid varchar(30)
set @.pid='2450'
select id from openrowset('sqloledb',
'server';'sa';'pass',database.dbo.table)
where id > @.pid

Probably this is a permission issue. Make sure that you have full

actual space used in data file

Hi all,
I'm having a problem need your help:
I can see all properties of datafile (FilegroupName, FileID, FileType,
Location, CurrentSize, Space Used) by Enterpise Manager.
Please tell me how do I see all those properties by SQL Query Analyzer.
I want to know actual space used in data file to shrink file.
Thanks in advanced,
TNsp_helpdb <your db>

yourself with the tools provided with SQL Server (of which profiler is one).
Each is documented in the SQL Server documentation; the appropriate section
of the documentation can be accessed directly from each application (for
those that are not command-line based) using the Help menu. In addition,
you can find answers to many basic and advanced questions by searching the
index or by searching the documentation just by guessing with appropriate
words. The online documentation shipped with SQL server is generally
referred to as BOL in the newsgroups (Books OnLine - which is the text of
the corresponding item in the Start menu).
