A Basic Question: Removing Duplicate Results From Max Function
Jun 10, 2006
Hi,
Say I have a table Job with columns name, date, salary . I want to get
the name ,date and salary for the date when that person earned maximum
salary. I am using something like
SELECT X.name,X.date,X.salary
FROM job X
WHERE X.salary IN
(SELECT MAX(Y.salary) FROM job Y where Y.name= X.name);
The problem is ; if a person earns maximum salary on two dates, both of
the dates are printed. I just want to get any one of those two rows.
I tried
SELECT X.name,Min(X.date),X.salary
FROM job X
WHERE X.salary IN
(SELECT MAX(Y.salary) FROM job Y where Y.name= X.name);
but it gives error.
Can anybody please suggest a solution?
I am trying to get people from my table that have closed accounts. However, in my table many people have more than one account. They will have multiple closed accounts and some active accounts. I need to get the people with only closed accounts.
Values in the table
Code: name surname status Closed Number ----------- --------- ----------- ------------- ---------------------------- Jeff Burns closed 2012/01/01 142 Tina Drewmor closed 2008/05/20 546 Jeff Burns active 1900/01/01 354 Kyle Higgin active 1900/01/01 851 Tina Drewmor closed 2009/04/14 154
The query I am using so far is:
Code: select d.name, d.surname, s.status, s.closed, s.number from d d inner join s s on d.number = s.number where s.status = 'closed'
What I need to see in the results
Code: name surname status Closed Number ----------- --------- ----------- ------------ ----------------------------- Tina Drewmor closed 2008/05/20 546 Tina Drewmor closed 2009/04/14 154
Hi, I have a web form that lets users search for people in my database they wish to contact. The database returns a paged set of results using a CTE, Top X, and Row_number(). I would like to give my users to option of removing individual people from this list but cannot find a way to do this. I have tried creating a session variable with a comma delimited list of ID's that I pass to my sproc and use in a NOT IN() statement. But I keep getting a "Input string was not in a correct format." Error Message. Is there any way to do this? I am still new to stored procedures so any advice would be helpful. Thanks
Hi all, I have one table in which one column contains duplicate values. My question is how i can use T-SQL so that i can retrive values for all columns in the table which are distinct and retriving the single value from column which contains duplicate values.
Please give the DML to SELECT the rows avoiding the duplicate rows. Since there is a text column in the table, I couldn't use aggregate function, group by (OR) DISTINCT for processing.
Table :
create table test(col1 int, col2 text) go insert into test values(1, 'abc') go insert into test values(2, 'abc') go insert into test values(2, 'abc') go insert into test values(4, 'dbc') go
I want the output like this,it should take only Min Datecreated FormCodeRefCodeSerialnoDateTime R1-196H1-68A12232138/6/2007 19:38:14 R1-205H1-67XS23124148/6/2007 19:36:08 R1-220H1-66F433365348/6/2007 19:30:27 R1-400H1-64ER53436648/6/2007 19:24:23 R1-408H1-65TE4626268/6/2007 19:24:23
1 7530568 87143 OESCHD 1/5/2006 6:31:58 AM 1 7530568 87143 OESCHD 1/5/2006 7:02:36 AM
for each 7530568 ordernumber there should only be one OESCHD status.
This is the query I'm using to insert the data sent to me.
INSERT INTO ORDER_EVENTS SELECT d.division as division, dt.orderNum as orderNum, dt.poNum as poNum, dt.statusCode as statusCode, dt.statusChangeDate as statusChangeDate FROM dt_Order_Events dt INNER JOIN division d ON dt.division = d.divisionShort INNER JOIN status s ON s.division = d.division AND s.statCode = dt.statusCode WHERE directive <> 'C' AND dt.orderNum IN (SELECT orderNum FROM ORDER_HEADER)
This works fine when used with in the hourly transactional update. But When I ran it for the Bulk UpDate (so we'd have historical data) it allowed orders to have statuses to many times.
I am not a SQL guru, I have no idea how to write a sql statement or stored proc that will remove the duplicate records. or how to change what I have to prevent further ones.
I am having a 1st listbox which is populating production lines, 2nd combobox to populate the production units. From here , the user will be able to select multiple production units from the combobox and hence populate the variable in listbox 3.
This is the query that I'm using to query on the variable table: 'SELECT DISTINCT PU_Id,Var_Id,Var_Desc from Variables where PU_Id IN (@ProductionUnits)'
The problem now is that this would return all the variables for the selected production units and for those variables that have the same name, they would appear in the listbox as duplicates.
I wonder if there's any way to filter off or remove the duplicates in the listbox 3 by using sql query?
Hi, I have results from a survey in a table, every entry is assigned a unique ID. I want to remove duplicate entries based on the survey data but not on the unique ID (obviously). So far I have...SELECT DISTINCT RespondantID, Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8, Q9, Q10, Q11, Q12, Q13 FROM Results But that gives...
1 - Anonymous 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2 - Anonymous 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
3 - Martin 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 I.e. in the above example, it would seem that 'Martin' submitted his data once and then submitted it again with his name. How can I remove the '2 - Anonymous' frrom the data set? Thanks!
I have regular work that requires me to extract a bunch of customer records from our database, and then remove duplicate address destinations (so we dont mail the same address more than once).
I can currently achieve this using a combination of my poor SQL skills and Excel, but it's really not working out for me, so looking for SQL wizardry necessary to do it just in SQL.
Relevant fields: Member.AddressBarcode (This is a unique barcode (Text representation of a base-3 number) based on the customer address. So if there's more than one record in the pulled records with the same barcode, we then look at Member.MemberTypeID to determine whether to include this record in the results or discard it as a duplicate. Note that AddressBarcode may be blank if the mailing address couldn't be validated, if it is blank we don't discard it since there is no easy way to detect duplicate addresses without the barcode)
Member.MemberTypeID (This is the type of member account. We have 3 types - Single, Joint Primary, Joint Secondary, represented in this field by the numbers 1/2/3. This is also the order of preference of who to mail. So if there is a Joint Primary and Joint Secondary with the same mailing barcode, we want to discard the Joint Secondary from the results, so that the Joint Primary is the record we include in the results of who to mail.)
Member.ID (Unique numeric ID for each customer. Kind of irrelevant here, but it's a key)
So some pseudo code for what I'm trying to achieve is:
(Member.MemberTypeID = 1) OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1) OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 3 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
Below is a snippet of MS SQL inside some VB that retieves Commodity info such as product names and related information and returns the results in an ASP Page. My problem is that with certain searches, elements returned in the synonym field repeat. For instance, on a correct search I get green, red, blue, and yellow which is correct. On another similar search with different commodity say for material, I get Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic, Glass, Sand. I want to remove the repeating elements returned in this field. IOW, I just need one set of Plastic, Glass and Sand. I hope this makes sense.
Below is the SQL and the results from the returned page.
PS I tried to use distinct but with no luck I want just one of each in the example below.
Thanks in Advance!

hi All, I have to remove non-useful and duplicate records containing NULL , Blanks and extra spaces (either on left or right side of the column values) etc from all the tables in my server's DB XYZ weekly thru a a scheduled job with the help of a Stored Proc, that s i guess called Purging og DB. Plz help how i can do it with T-SQL.
Also i have to find out and remove all the duplicate DB objects(tables) from the DB .e.g. a table existing with name TABLE_TEST or TABLE_DEBUG etc for an original table TABLE , making sure no any of the base table is dropped.
Hi, Please help me with an SQL Query that fetches all the records from the three tables but a unique record for each forum and topicid with the maximum lastpostdate. Please provide separate solutions for SqlServer2000/2005. I have four tables namely – Forums,Topics,Threads and Messages in SQL Server2000 (scripts for table creation and insertion of test data given at the end). Now, I have formulated a query as below :- SELECT Forums.forumid AS ForumID,Topics.topicid AS TopicID,Topics.name AS TopicName,LastPosts.date as LastPostDate,LastPosts.author AS Author, (select count(threadid) from Threads where Threads.topicid=Topics.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums JOIN Topics ON Forums.forumid=Topics.forumid LEFT OUTER JOIN ( SELECT Topics.forumid,Threads.topicid,Messages.date,Messages.author FROM Topics INNER JOIN Threads ON Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid INNER JOIN Messages ON Threads.threadid=Messages.threadid WHERE Messages.date=(SELECT MAX(date) FROM Messages WHERE Messages.threadid = Threads.threadid) ) as LastPosts ON LastPosts.forumid = Topics.forumid AND LastPosts.topicid = Topics.topicid Whose result set is as below:-
forumid topicid name LastPostDate author NoOfThreads
5 17 General NULL NULL 0 I want all the rows from the Forums,Topics and Threads table and the row with the maximum date (the last post date of the message) from the Messages table as shown above. When I use the query by using only three tables namely Forums,Topics and Threads, I get the correct result. The query is as:- SELECT Topics.forumid AS ForumID,Forums.name AS ForumName,Topics.topicid as TopicID,Topics.name as TopicName, LastPosts.author AS Author,LastPosts.lastpostdate AS LastPost, (select count(threadid) from threads where Threads.topicid=Topics.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums JOIN Topics ON Forums.forumid=Topics.forumid LEFT OUTER JOIN ( SELECT Topics.forumid, Threads.topicid, Threads.lastpostdate, Threads.author FROM Threads INNER JOIN Topics ON Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid WHERE Threads.lastpostdate IN (SELECT MAX(lastpostdate) FROM threads WHERE Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid) ) AS LastPosts ON LastPosts.forumid = Topics.forumid AND LastPosts.topicid = Topics.topicid Whose result set is as:-

I have a stored procedure that returns a single row based on a parameter of employee ID. This particular procedure uses a CTE to traverse our org structure. One of the columns is returning a delimited string of Windows login values and due to the business rules, it can contain duplicate values. I need to have that column contain only unique values - no dupes.
For example, this one column could contain something like this:
I have tested the code below to remove duplicate table entries based on the field IntOOS. This code works; however, I want to ensure I am removing the oldest entries and keeping the most recent entry. The field to key on this would be something like Max(ID). What would be the best way to ensure I keep the most recent table entry?
/*** Removes duplicate rows from ampfm.rpt_AdtVisitDiag table
by Chuck King 20070928
***/
;WITH CTE

SELECT
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (Partition By IntOOS Order BY IntOOS) AS ROWID
I need write a query for removing duplicates, for Example in my table I have columns
A_ID name id 1 sam 10 2 sam 10 3 sam 10 4 sam 10 5 ccc 15 6 ccc 15 7 ccc 15 8 fff 20 9 fff 20 10 fff 20
So now I have duplicates values in id column so now I need to take only one value of each and delete the remaining. I need to take first id value 10,15,20 so only 3 rows should be there in my table.
It seems that there should be a solution for my situation, but for the life of me I can't seem to figure it out.
I need to compare two "like" tables, containing similar data. Tbl 1 is "BOOKED" (which is a snapshot of inventory) and tbl 2 is "CURRENT" (the live - working inventory table). If I write my query as follows the the subsequent result is "duplicate" data.
Code Block SELECT booked.item, booked.bin, booked.quantity, current.bin, current.quantity FROM BOOKED LEFT JOIN CURRENT ON booked.item = current.item
No matter what type of join I use, there is duplicate data displayed for each table. For example, if there are more bins in the BOOKED table that contain a certain product then the CURRENT table will repeat data and vica versa.
As follows:
Item Bin Quantity Bin Quantity
12345 A01 500 A01 7680
12345 B01 6 A01 7680
12345 C01 20 A01 7680
54321 G10 1032 E15 1163
54321 G10 1032 F20 523
54321 G10 1032 H30 750
98765 Z20 7000 Z20 8500
98765 Y15 2500 Y15 3000
98765 X10 1200 Y15 3000
What I would like to do is display Bin and Quantity only once and the repeating values as NULL or [BLANK]. Or, to display all of the bins from both tables and only the quantities from each table in relation to the bin found in that table, returning a "0" if no quantity exists.
This is what I'm after:
Item Bin Quantity Bin Quantity
12345 A01 500 A01 7680
12345 B01 6 B01 0
12345 C01 20 C01 0
54321 G10 1032 E15 1163
54321 F20 0 F20 523
54321 H30 0 H30 750
98765 Z20 7000 Z20 8500
98765 Y15 2500 Y15 3000
98765 X10 1200 X10 0
Is this possible? If so, how?
I also might add that it is ok for each table to contain multiple entries for any given item. This is basically being requested as an inventory variance report - inventory before physical count and immediatly after physical count - and will only be run once a year.
----------------------------------------------- Just thinking out loud here: What if I created three subqueries, the first containing only BOOKED information, the second containing only CURRENT information and the third being a UNION of both tables? Something like this:
Code Block SELECT q3.bin, q1.item, ISNULL(q1.quantity, 0) as QTY_BEFORE, ISNULL(q2.quantity, 0) as QTY_AFTER
FROM
(select item, bin, quantity from BOOKED)q1 Left Join
(select item, bin, quantity from CURRENT)q2 on q1.item = q2.item Left Join
(select bin, item from BOOKED UNION CURRENT)q3 on q1.item = q3.item
Order By q1.item
I don't know if I wrote the UNION statement correctly, but I will have to try this when I get back to work...
I'm trying to construct a query that takes results from a table (zip codes, essentially) and strips out the results so that it's just the first 4 digits (rather than the first 4 digits + '-.....'). Which function would allow me to do this in management studio?
I'm new to SQL and tried to develop a simple query on multiple tables of a database. The query works but returns duplicate records even though there aren't duplicate records in the database.
Here is the script:
SELECT LelyDevice.iAddress, LelyDeviceVisit.tEndVisitDateTime, LelyCow.dBirthDate, LelyCow.iUserNumber, LelyAstronautVisit.lRefusal, LelyAstronautVisit.lFailedMilking, LelyMilkVisitData.nMilkYield, LelyLactationProduction.dCalvingDate FROM LelyDevice INNER JOIN LelyDeviceVisit ON LelyDevice.PK_LelyDevice = LelyDeviceVisit.FK_LelyDevice INNER JOIN LelyCow ON LelyDeviceVisit.FK_LelyCow = LelyCow.PK_LelyCow INNER JOIN LelyAstronautVisit ON LelyDeviceVisit.PK_LelyDeviceVisit = LelyAstronautVisit.FK_LelyDeviceVisit INNER JOIN LelyMilkVisitData ON LelyDeviceVisit.PK_LelyDeviceVisit = LelyMilkVisitData.FK_LelyDeviceVisit INNER JOIN LelyLactationProduction ON LelyCow.PK_LelyCow = LelyLactationProduction.FK_LelyCow
WHERE LelyDeviceVisit.tEndVisitDateTime BETWEEN '2006-07-29 03:20:00.000' AND '2006-08-03 08:58:59.000' AND LelyAstronautVisit.lFailedMilking = 1 ORDER BY LelyDeviceVisit.tEndVisitDateTime DESC
and here is the result: 13012006-08-03 08:57:39.0002002-07-03 00:00:00.000209015.12005-06-02 00:00:00.000 13012006-08-03 08:57:39.0002002-07-03 00:00:00.000209015.12004-06-06 00:00:00.000 13012006-08-02 20:21:54.0002002-07-03 00:00:00.000209012.72005-06-02 00:00:00.000 13012006-08-02 20:21:54.0002002-07-03 00:00:00.000209012.72004-06-06 00:00:00.000 11012006-08-02 19:26:44.0002002-11-20 00:00:00.000221010.02005-03-27 00:00:00.000 13012006-08-02 19:16:33.0002002-11-20 00:00:00.000221012.32005-03-27 00:00:00.000
As you can see the first 2 lines are the same date and time and the next 2 and so on.
I have the following query. I want it to find how many minutes used by MDN (which is the column for the phone numbers in my database). It keeps giving me duplicate MDN's. How can I get it to give me the total minutes used by an MDN per day?
SELECT DISTINCT MDN,sum(ceiling((Cast(DurationSeconds as Decimal)/60))) as Minutes FROM VoiceCallDetailRecord WHERE Durationseconds >0 and CallDate >= '02/19/2007' and calldate < '02/20/2007' and NOT (Left(Endpoint,3) IN ('011') or (Left(Endpoint,4) IN ('1340','1876','1868','1809', '1246','1242','1780','1403', '1250','1604','1807','1519', '1204','1506','1709','1867', '1902','1705','1613','1416', '1905','1902','1514','1450', '1418','1819','1306','1867'))) AND (((CONVERT(varchar, CallDate, 108) Between '07:00:00' AND '20:59:59')) AND DATEPART(weekday, CallDate) in (2,3,4,5,6)) Group By MDN UNION SELECT DISTINT MDN,sum(ceiling((Cast(DurationSeconds as Decimal)/60))) as Minutes FROM ZeroChargeVCDRecord WHERE Durationseconds > 0 and CallDate >= '02/19/2007' and calldate < '02/20/2007' and NOT (Left(Endpoint,3) IN ('011') or (Left(Endpoint,4) IN ('1340','1876','1868','1809', '1246','1242','1780','1403', '1250','1604','1807','1519', '1204','1506','1709','1867', '1902','1705','1613','1416', '1905','1902','1514','1450', '1418','1819','1306','1867'))) AND (((CONVERT(varchar, CallDate, 108) Between '07:00:00' AND '20:59:59')) AND DATEPART(weekday, CallDate) in (2,3,4,5,6)) Group By MDN order by mdn
I'm a developer, not a DB admin. I'm writing a .NET app that usescrystal reports.The table I need to output is built inside a stored procedure. Nochoice, it makes use of some temporary tables. (Believe me I've triedto get around that.)Crystal reports seems to only know about tables and views. It lookslike a view cannot call procedures. It can call functions, but in turnthey also can't call procedures. I am hosed, what now?Performance is not a factor here, small data sets, I just gotta get thething working.
ALTER PROCEDURE discussions_GetTopics(@board_id as int)ASSELECT discussions_Topics.*, discussions_Posts.*, user_1.UserName AS Topic_Author_Username, user_1.UserId AS Topic_Author_ID, user_2.UserName AS Post_Author_Username, user_2.UserId AS Post_Author_IDFROM discussions_Topics INNER JOIN discussions_Posts ON discussions_Topics.topic_id = discussions_Posts.topic_id INNER JOIN aspnet_Users AS user_1 ON user_1.UserId = discussions_Topics.topic_poster INNER JOIN aspnet_Users AS user_2 ON user_1.UserId = discussions_Posts.poster_idWHERE (discussions_Topics.board_id = @board_id) I am simply trying to return a result for each topic, that has user info for both the author of the topic and the author of the last post (user_1, user_2) The problem is, it will return multiple datarows with the same topic, and each of them have a different last post author.. when there can only be one last poster... idk.. im confused.. help?
I have duplicate results in from my query. I am using the distinct clause but this does not seem to be working. In the example below, I do not want the 79.15 to repeat multiple times eventhough the first column has all distinct values. I am using distinct in my select but this is not stopping the duplicates on the second row. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I have to write a query which extracts everyone from a table who has the same surname and forenames as someone else but different id's.
The query should have a surname column, a forenames column, and two id columns (from the person column of the table).
I need to avoid duplicates i.e. the first table id should only be returned in the first id column and not in the second - which is what i am getting at the mo.
This is what i have done
select first.surname, first.forenames, first.person, second.person from shared.people first, shared.people second where first.surname= second.surname and first.forenames = second.forenames and not first.person = second.person order by first.surname, first.forenames
and i get results like this
Porter Sarah Victoria 9518823 9869770 Porter Sarah Victoria 9869770 9518823 - i.e. duplicates
Query should only return less than 3000 records but its returning over 4M. It needs to show all duplicates records.... All the info are on the same table VENDFIl, so I used a self join but it seems to be looping..
SELECT A.FEDTID, B.VENDOR, C.NPI_NUMBER FROM VENDFIL A, VENDFIL B, VENDFIL C GROUP BY A.FEDTID, B.VENDOR
I have three tables, Accounts, AccountCustomer and Customers, and the data-relationshiop between are defined according to the image below:
I created also a query (the sql-query below), displaying the customers for every account that is on the table "Accounts", and I got the results, as we can see in the image below:
SELECT A.AccountID, c.CustomerNo, c.Surname, c.Name, c.TaxNum FROM Accounts A left join AccountCustomer ac on ac.AccountID = A.AccountID left join Customers c on c.CustomerNo = ac.CustomerNo order by A.AccountID;
As we understand, an "AccountID" have multiple customers, so I want to transform tha multiple results to one row, grouping by AccountID (one account belongs to one or many Customers), like the image below:
I tried to use row_number()-expression to get this, but I didn't make it. So my question is, how can I alter my sql-query to get the final result like image above?
I have a results table that was created from many different sources in SSIS. I have done calculations and created derived columns in it. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to remove duplicate rows from this table without first writing it to a temp sql table and then parsing through it to remove them.
each row has a like key in a column - I would like to remove like rows keeping specific columns in the resulting row based on the data in this key field.
I have a query that uses the PIVOT function and works fine in SQL 2012. I've been asked to move the query to a database that has the compatibility level set to 80(SQL 2000). I receive an "Incorrect syntax near" error when I try to excute the query on the SQL 2000 database. I would like to duplicate the exiting PIVOT functionality in SQL 2000.The existing query retrieves employee names and the order that the employee should be displayed from a table. The names will appear on the report according to the order that is retrieved from the database. Also, the users have requested that only 5 names appear on each row of the report. This is why the PIVOT function was needed. Below is an example of how the existing query works.
Table CREATE TABLE [dbo].[EmpGuest]( [Guest_ID] [int] NOT NULL, [Guest_Name] [varchar](80) NULL, [Display_Order] [int] NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
