SQL Related Articles: Creating views with information about tables and columsn etc
2002-12-10 -- Andy Stapleton
 
Newsgroups: TopSpeed.Products.Drivers Editors note: Please not that the SQL code at the end may wrap. Here is a few views you may find interesting... Create view ViewTableColumn as select Table_Name,Column_Name from SYS.Systable,SYS.syscolumn where syscolumn.Table_Id = systable.table_id and systable.creator = 11 ! gives all of the Tables and Columns for a particular user that created it... alter view ViewTableColumnfilter as select st.Table_Name,sc.Column_Name,Trim(Su.Name) || '.' || St.Table_name as tTableNAme from SYS.Systable as st,SYS.syscolumn as sc,Dbo.SysUsers as su where sc.Table_Id = st.table_id and st.creator = 9 and Su.Uid = St.Creator ! creates the table name with the Owner attached and the columns... alter view ViewTableOwner as select su.Name,st.Table_Name,Trim(Su.Name) || '.' || St.Table_name as tTableNAme from dbo.sysUsers as Su,SYS.SysTable as st where Su.Uid = St.Creator and Su.Name not in('DBO','sys','Rs_SysTabGroup') ! shows all owners/ tables except for system stuff.... Find attached a SQL procedure, it takes a Table I created SeqTransColumns Finds the column in the SysColumns table and creates a statement on the fly to be executed..... the reason for this in this example is to build an update statement on the Fly for Prior changed fields, Each time a record is updated, I store the fieldName / Value into the SeqTransColumns tables, if I need to Rollback the changes later, or process it some way, I don't necessarily know the fieldnames that was changed, by using the syscolumns table and getting info from there, I can setup the Update statement on the fly... -- Andy <> Stapleton CIO DB|Wired.com / (ccs) Cowboy Computing Solutions www.dbwired.com Web and Clarionet hosting www.ccscowboy.com CCS SQL templates www.Paywire.com ACH / Credit Card payment processing "Arnor Baldvinsson" wrote in message news:3df63ae9.19146890@news.softvelocity.com... > Hi All, > > On Tue, 10 Dec 2002 18:49:16 GMT, arnor@icetips.com (Arnor > Baldvinsson) wrote: > > >datatype itself or to a table containing the datatypes.
