How not to get dubs

  • Hello, I need to insert data from table 1 and table2, table 2 table is not accepting dubs,

    That tables has 4 fields uniq. but 5 fields is is not uniq.. Can someone help me please.

    Thank you

  • Krasavita, you're going to be a lot more explicit in your problem for specific assistance.

    Basically you'll have to dedupe your data into table 2 from table 1 to get it to insert.

    If you want more help, you'll really need to post DDL for the two tables, including constraints and indexes, sample data that shows the issue, and what you'd like it to do.

  • What is the insert statement that you are trying to use?

  • insert into table2

    SUN_DB, CODE, [NAME]

    select

    SUN_DB, CODE, [NAME]

    from table1

  • There must be duplicate data in Table1 or rows already exist in Table2.

  • CONSTRAINT [PK_SUN_Vendors] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

    (

    [SUN_DB] ASC,

    ASC

    )WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]

    Here's the reason you're not able to insert dupes. So, you'll need to find any dupes in table 1, and also make sure they don't already exist in table 2.

    So:

    SELECT sun_db, code from table1 group by sun_db, code having count(*) > 1

    That will let you find dupes in the table1 on the key for table 2. You'll have to then go in and clean up the data.

    Next:

    select t1.*, t2.* from table1 as t1 join table2 as t2 on t1.sun_db = t2.sun_db and t1.code = t2.code

    That will show you dupes between the tables.

    You'll have to decide what you want to do about that, too. You could where clause them out, use a left join, etc.

  • Thank you, but what I need if I enter data from t1 to t2 and there is a record like that in t2 don't enter and insert next one.

    Thank you

  • I'd use either a LEFT OUTER JOIN or a NOT EXISTS subqry.
