10 Random Records, 1 From Each Category
Dec 1, 2006
I'm not sure if this is a completely dumb question, but please humor me
:) I have a table of records, called Records, each of which has a
Category_ID that places it in a specific category; the details of the
categories are stored in another table called Category. What I need to
do is retrieve a recordset that contains one record from each category,
but where the records that are retrieved are random. I know how to
retrieve one or more random records using "order by NewID()", but have
not been able to work out how to get one random record from each
category.
Any assistance in this puzzler will be HUGELY appreciated!
Thanks

Hi,I need to extract randomly 5 records from the table "Questions". Now I useSELECT TOP 5 FROM Questions ORDERBY NEWID()And it works. The problem is that I need an additional thing: if SQLextracts record with ID=4, then it should not extract record with ID=9,because they are similar. I mean, I'd like something to tell SQL that if itextracts some questions, then it SHOULD NOT extract other ones.How can I do it?Thanks!Luke

I got 3 table below
Region
---------------
RegionID
ParentID
RegionName
Cuisine
--------
CuisineID
CuisineName
Restaurant
-----------
RetaurantID
CuisineID
RegionID
Data
RegionID RegionName ParentID
1 RN_1 Null
2 RN_2 Null
3 RN_1_1 1
4 RN_1_2 1
5 RN_2_1 2
CuisineID CuisineName
1 CU1
2 CU2
RestaurantID CuisineID RegionID
1 1 4
2 1 2
3 2 5
4 1 3
What I would like is to write a stored procedure to browse the restaurant by either regionname or cuisinename.
I tried to create the view from those three table and create the stored procedure to search from the view based on criterias
I tried to search for regionName = RN_1 & CuisineName = 2 the result is empty. It is true because there is no restaurant under that region however what I want to have is list all restaurants under that RegionName children e.g
RN_1 has RN_1_1 & RN_1_2 & RN_1_3 so the result should be displayed as
RestaurantID CuisineID RegionName ParentID
1 1 RN_1_2 1
4 2 RN_1_1 1
Could anyone help me to do so. Thank you

Hi,
I have a simple table:
Categories
----------
CategoryID
ParentID
Name
I want to associate my Products to a category so that I can search by category....ok. If I just have a simlpe table:
CategoryProducts
-------------------
CategoryId
ProductId
I can link a product to a category. Now, if I just link a product to a single category, such as the bottom leaf category:
Self Help / Personal Development / Spiritual / Meditation
I would link a product to the Meditation category. However if I
click on Self Help while browsing, I want to see all items underneath
Personal Development, Spiritual and Meditiation. So my question
is is this a good way to store the product-category relationships, or
should I put many entries into CategoryProducts to keep the queries
simlpe and faster? Are they faster doing it this way? In this way there
would be 4 entries for a product in meditation. My personal idea
is that adding all entries up a tree arm of a category path will be
cumbersome to manage, but it does solve the problem of clicking on Self
Help and seeing all products that exist within sub-categories. I
am sure an SQL query would be able to work this out, but I dont know if
performance would be something to consider on an ecommerce site? Are
there any patterns fo rthis stuff - seems a reasonably repeatable
pattern for business sites?
Thanks,
jr.

I need a way to select records at random from a SQL Server 2000 table. If the record I've selected at random meets a few simple conditions (column X <> 'A' and column Y == 'Z') then return this record and get the next. Ideally I'd be able to do this in a stored proc where I'd call it with:
parameter 1: table name
parameter 2: number of random records to get
parameter 3: value for condition 1
parameter 4: value for condition 2
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I've got a product table in SQL 2000 that contains say these rows:
ProductID intProductName varcharIsSpecial bit
I want to always return 4 random specials from a query and can do this fine by using:
SELECT TOP 4 ProductID,ProductNameFROM Products WHERE IsSpecial = 1ORDER BY NEWID()
This works ok if there are 4 products marked as specials but the problem is i always need 4 records returned but if only 2 products are marked as special then only 2 records are returned.
What i really need is something in there that says if <4 records are returned then just add random non-special products to make the total products returned up to 4. So it should always be 4 records but preference is given to specials if you see what i mean?
Is this possible?
Thanks

Hello,
Anyone have any suggestions on creating a query that will randomly select records from a table, but not use those records again. I have some code that does it, but it uses the same fields over again, and also throws in some blank records that I did not specify in the query. I am creating a test engine that has to randomly ask questions.

I have a situation where i am trying to run two query's and retrieveone record from each query, then using Union combine them into onerecordset. The First Query is strait forward and should just returnthe matching record however the second query needs to find a randomrecord and return it. The union is causing me some trouble. It seemsthat any method i try to find a random record just causes an error.Here is an example of a query that's causing the problem.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------declare @variable1 smallintdeclare @variable2 intset @variable1 = 10002set @variable2 = 1001211720select col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6from table1where col1 = @variable1 and col2 = @variable2unionselect col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6from table2where col2 = @variable2order by newID()--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I have also tried the following which does not provide an error but icannot find a way only to return one record from the second query--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------declare @variable1 smallintdeclare @variable2 intset @variable1 = 10002set @variable2 = 1001211720select newID() as colID, col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6from table1where col1 = @variable1 and col2 = @variable2unionselect newID() as colID, col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6from table2where col2 = @variable2order by colIDIf anyone has any ideas, fixes, or thoughts i would appreciate them...thanks in advance...FYI i am fairly inexperienced in SQL so please feel free to let me knowif you need more of an explination.

My overarching goal is to generate sets of random Symptom records for each Enrollee in a drug study, so that for each cycle (period of time), the code will insert a random number of random records for each enrollee.
I'm trying to return a number of random records from a table, but inside a table-valued function... (which could be my problem).
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.ufn_GetTopSymptoms (
@enrollID INT
, @CTCVersion VARCHAR(20)
, @NumRecords INT
)
RETURNS TABLE
[Code] ....
But that ORDER BY NEWID() clause is illegal apparently, because here's the error it throws:
Msg 443, Level 16, State 1, Procedure ufn_GetTopSymptoms, Line 13
Invalid use of a side-effecting operator 'newid' within a function.
I was hoping I could return a set of enrollmentIDs and then use CROSS APPLY to generate a random set of records for each enrollmentID... is this not possible with APPLY? I was trying to avoid using a cursor...
The idea is basically to create all the Symptom records for all the patients in treatment cycle at once by using Enrollee OUTER APPLY dbo.ufn_GetTopSymtoms(dbo.Enrollment.EnrolleeID)
but that's clearly not working. Is there a way to do this without resorting to a cursor?

I used to do this with classic asp but I'm not sure how to do it with .net.Basically I would take a table of Categories, Then I would loop through those. Within each loop I would call another stored procedure to get each item in that Category. I'll try to explain, Lets say category 2 has a player Reggie Bush and a player Drew Brees, and category 5 has Michael Vick, but the other categories have no items.Just for an example.. Category Table: ID Category1 Saints2 Falcons3 Bucaneers4 Chargers5 FalconsPlayer Table:ID CategoryID Player News Player Last Updated1 1 Reggie Bush Poetry in motion 9/21/20062 1 Drew Brees What shoulder injury? 9/18/20063 5 Michael Vick Break a leg, seriously. 9/20/2006 Basically I would need to display on a page:SaintsReggie BushPoetry in MotionFalconsMichael VickBreak a leg, seriously.So that the Drew Brees update doesnt display, only the Reggie Bush one, which is the latest.I have my stored procedures put together to do this. I just don't know how to loop through and display it on a page. Right now I have two datareaders in the code behind but ideally something like this, I would think the code would go on the page itself, around the html.

I'm using ASP and SQL Serv 2000. What I need to get from 2 tables (company & customers) is random 10 customers from random 20 comp.
Anyone got an idea how to do this??? I've spent 2 days trying to get stored proc. or T-SQL to work, but nothing good came out of it. I can get 1 comp and 10 cust, but not a grouped list of 20 comp. w/ 10 cust. each.
Help is greatly appreciated.

Let's say you a 1000 records in the Employees table, who are spread over 40 different cities.
How would you get a breakdown of how many employees in each city ?
Do I have to loop with a Count(*) for each CityID, or something ?
There must be a more straightforward method.

i am using this code :
SELECT MAX(user) AS lastuser, category
FROM journal
GROUP BY category
HAVING (COUNT(category) > 1)
it works but returns 1 line by category >1
i need all the user (all the rows) HAVING (COUNT(category) > 1) , not only 1
if 1 category has only 1 user i must not keep it
i am not shure to be clear :-)
thank you for helping
