SQLSERVER_9: Insert, Delete and Update Command

SQLSERVER_9: Insert, Delete and Update Command

Insert, Delete and Update commands are the Data Manipulation Commands in SQL Server.

a.     Insert

Insert command is used to create new records / rows in the Table. The following command is a basic example of Insert Command.

Ø  Insert into Emp(Empno, Ename) values (101,'ABC')

The above command inserts into table named “Emp” and in columns “Empno”, “Ename” with values 101 and ABC.

The above command has following advantages:

a.      We can skip any column in which we don’t want to insert any data.
b.     We can also change the order of columns.

The another type of insert command:

Ø  Insert into Emp values (101,'ABC')

In the above command, we cannot change the Column Order and even we can’t skip any column value.

b.     Update

Update command is used to update existing values within the table.

Ø  Update Emp set Ename='New Name' where Empno = 101

In the above command we are trying to change the column name Ename to a new Value where Empno = 101

Ø  Update Emp set Ename='New Name', salary=Salary+100 where Empno = 101

In the above command we are trying to change the column name Ename to a new Value, increase salary with already salary + 100 where Empno = 101



c.      Delete

Delete command is used to remove a row or number of rows in a table.

Ø  Delete From Emp where Empno = 101

The above command will be used to delete row from the table where Empno = 101

Ø  Delete From Emp where Salary between 2000 and 10000

The above command will delete all the rows that have salary between 2000 and 10000. Be-Aware as it will delete a number of rows.

How to use QueryExtenderControl in ASP.NET with LINQ

Queryextender control is a control that helps in doing actions like filtration, searching, sorting etc. on the LINQ Data source with few steps. In fact we don’t have to write any code with this. Screenshot given below is just an example that can easily be achieved through this control. In the above screenshot, we can see that there is a GridView Control that has been binded to a LINQData Source Control. And we have a DropDownlistBox that is also binded to another LINQData Source Control and displaying only grouped jobs. The GridView display all the employees who are matching the Job Parameter. This is done through QueryExtender Control. Also we can search for any name in the employee name's through Query Extender control. The code in the HTML goes like: < form id ="form1" runat ="server">     < div >         Select Job: < asp : DropDownList ID ="Job" runat ="server" DataSourceID ="LinqDataSource2...

Using GUID or UniqueIdentifiers in SQL Server

In order to differentiate between two rows, we normally use primary keys or identity values which may be same across two tables. In order to overcome this problem we can use a special type named "GUID" . Its a hexadecimal number (Base 16) and the advantage is  that they are unique across all databases and tables.  In SQL Server the same concept is implemented through UNIQUEIDENTIFIER  data type. In order to generate a new value, we use the NEWID() function. For e.g.  a. Creating a table that uses the UNIQUEIDENTIFIER datatype Create table Test ( Empno uniqueidentifier, Ename varchar(20) ) b. Inserting rows in the tables with the use of NEWID() function insert into Test values (newId(),'ABC') insert into Test values (newid(),'XYZ') insert into test values (newid(),'MNO') c. Selecting the rows from the table. Select * from test  Empno                             ...

How to Delete Record through Knex.

This post is all about of deleting records through KNEX ORM in Nodejs. The following code shows how to achieve this: knex("depts").where("deptno","50").del() .then(function (count) {     console.log(count); }) .finally(function () {     knex.destroy(); }); The above code deletes a record from a table "Depts" where Deptno = 50. It has a "then" Promise attached that will show how many records were deleted with this command. Also "finally" is the method that will always execute and will close the KNEX connection. Happy Coding !!!
