Adding Rows to a Table

• INSERT Command
– INSERT INTO followed by table name
– VALUES command followed by specific values in
parentheses
– Values for character columns in single quotation
marks

The INSERT Command

(continued)
• To add new rows, modify previous insert
command
• Use same editing techniques as those used to

correct errors
5
Inserting a Row that Contains

Nulls
• Use a special format of INSERT command to
enter a null value in a table
• Identify the names of the columns that accept

non-null values and then list only the non-null
values after the VALUES command

Alternative way to add rows

• Upload from EXCEL thru GUI interface of
SSMS
• Special format of INSERT will allow data
to be pulled from another table
• Use the ‘EDIT TOP 100 ROWS’ option of
GUI of SSMS

Viewing Table Data

• Start script with USE database_name
• Use SELECT command
– Can display all the rows and columns in a table
• SELECT * FROM followed by the name of the

table
• Ends with a semicolon

9
Sample to add data from

another table
- Suppose we create another table in
COLONIAL database using the following:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CUST_phone]

([CUSTOMER_NUM] [char](4) NOT NULL,
[PHONE_TYPE] [char](2) NOT NULL,
[CUST_PHONE_NUM] [char](12) NULL,
Primary key clustered
(CUSTOMER_NUM, PHONE_TYPE))
10

• We could add a row for each row in the

customer table as follows:
11
Loading data from excel

• Delete the data from the trip table in the
Colonial database
delete * from trip
Work thru the GUI interface of SSMS to

reload the table
(right-click the database name, choose
TASKS, IMPORT DATA)

Correcting Errors in a Table

• UPDATE command is used to update a value in
a table
• DELETE command allows you to delete a record
• INSERT command allows you to add a record

Saving SQL Commands

• Allows you to use commands again without
retyping
• Save commands in a script file or script
– Text file with .sql extension
• Script repository
– Special location in Oracle
– Can download to local drive

3/15/2018
Saving SQL Commands

(continued)
• To create a script file in Oracle:
– Use Script Editor page
– Enter a name for script
– Type the command or commands to save in
script
– Save the script
19
Saving SQL Commands

(continued)
• Once a script file is created:
– Can view, edit, or run
– Can delete
– Can download from script repository to local drive
– Can upload from local drive to script repository

Saving SQL Commands

(continued)
• Access
– Does not use script files
– Save SQL commands as query objects
• SQL Server
– Can create scripts
– Can view, edit, run scripts
– Can delete scripts
21
Creating the Remaining Database

Tables
• Execute appropriate CREATE TABLE and
INSERT commands
• Save these commands as scripts
• Separate multiple commands in a script file with

a semicolon
22
11
3/15/2018
Describing a Table
• DESCRIBE command (Oracle)
• Documenter tool (Access)
• Exec sp_columns command (SQL Server)
exec sp_columns @table_name=customer
23
Describing a Table (continued)

Summary
• Use the CREATE TABLE command to create
tables
• Use the DROP TABLE command to delete a

table
• CHAR, VARCHAR, DATE, DECIMAL, INT, and

SMALLINT data types
– Access does not support DECIMAL
25
Summary (continued)
• Null value used when actual value for a column
is unknown, unavailable, or not applicable
• Use NOT Null clause to identify columns that
cannot have a null value
• Use INSERT command to add rows
• Use SELECT command to view data in a table
26

Summary (continued)
• Use UPDATE command to change the value in
a column
• Use DELETE command to delete a row
