I have 2 independent queries which run just fine, the 2nd one returns a dollar value. I need this dollar value as a column in my first query so that I can return it in a reporting program. The 2 queries are pasted below.
SELECT dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.InvoiceNumber AS "InvoiceNumber",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.TransactionType AS "TransactionType",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.Date AS "Date",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.DueDate AS "DueDate",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.CustomerName AS "CustomerName",
Basically I'm trying to add an extra column, so that whenever the GroupName is "Followup", then a 'Y' will appear in the CustomerPending column for all instances of that CallID. I tried with the following, but it only provides a 'Y' in the rows (not the CallId's) where "Followup" is found.
-------------------------------------- UPDATE dbo.Asgnmnt SET CustomerPending = 'Y' FROM dbo.Asgnmnt WHERE dbo.Asgnmnt.GroupName IN ('SD Followup')
ALTER Table Asgnmnt ALTER column CustomerPending varchar(1)
UPDATE dbo.Asgnmnt SET CustomerPending = 'N' FROM dbo.Asgnmnt WHERE dbo.Asgnmnt.GroupName NOT IN ('SD Followup')
ALTER Table Asgnmnt ALTER column CustomerPending varchar(1) ---------------------------------------
I need to add a column that has the datatype of integer with a seed and identity increment to a table that already exists and has data in it - and can't all NULLs. I have heard that this not possible if the table already exists.
I have downloaded the demo's of SQL Programmer and a couple of Embarcadero programs to see if that would help, but have had no succes to date.
and I need to create a session temp table (eg ##output) that translates the calculation (NewAmt - OldAmt) into categories such as
"decrease -201 to -500" "decrease -1 to -200" "no change" "increase 1 to 200" "increase 201 to 500"
so that my final output would look like this:
ID NewPer NewAmt OldPer OldAmt Change ChangeCategory 334 1/07/08 200 22/01/08 200 0 no change 2396 1/07/08 4000 10/12/07 3600 400 increase 201 to 500 7650 1/07/08 1100 07/07/06 1200 -100 decrease -1 to -200 . . . I understand how to add the "Change" column to my temp output table, but am struggling with the ChangeCategory column - can someone point me in the right direction?
i have the folowing databases DB1,DB2,DB3,D4,DB5........
i have to loop through each of the databases and find out if the database has a table with the name 'Documents'( like 'tbdocuments' or 'tbemplyeedocuments' and so on......)
If the tablename having the word 'Documents' is found in that database i have to add a column named 'IsValid varchar(100)' against that table in that database and there can be more than 1 'Documents' table in a database.
I have a matrix report with 2 column SaleAmount and ProfitAmounts by Month like
Sale Profit Dealer 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 A 100 200 300 20 25 15 B 200 250 50 30 45 19
how can i do following 3 things
1)Add Total column for Sale and Average column for Profit 2)Sort report by lastMonth of Sale (here 7/1/2007) High to low 3)if last month of sale(here 7/1/2007) is less than second last month here (6/1/2007) whole row should be red
Hi,Suppose I have a table containing monthly sales figures from my shopbranches:Branch Month Sales-----------------------London Jan 5000London Feb 4500London Mar 5200Cardiff Jan 2900Cardiff Feb 4100Cardiff Mar 3500The question I am trying to ask is this: in which month did each branchachieve its highest sales? So I want a result set something like this:Branch Month----------------London MarCardiff FebI can do a "SELECT Branch, MAX(Sales) FROM MonthlySales GROUP BY Branch" totell me what the highest monthly sales figure was, but I just can't figureout how to write a query to tell me which month corresponded to MAX(Sales).Ideas anyone?Cheers,....Andy
I have a pretty simple SQL query that has two columns that contains only numbers. Is there a way i can add an extra column that simply subtracts the number in one column from number in the other column.I query the data tables rather than have a live link so the .csv file gets overwritten every time i run the query.
I have a query that returns a list of results from the database and insert the results into a datatable. Is there any way to add a column to the query result that has autonumbers in it. for example the first record would have 1 the next 2, the next 3, and so on?
I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code: SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName, People_tbl.LastName, People_tbl.[Parent ID] FROM People_tbl RIGHT OUTER JOIN Student_ind ON People_tbl.[Family ID] = Student_ind.[Family ID] WHERE (People_tbl.LastName = @Enter_LastName) AND (People_tbl.FirstName = @Enter_FirstName)
I am attempting to create a simple recordset that would return thenumber of duplicates that exist in a table with a single column. Forexample if I had a table like the following:ID Reference Amount1 123456 1.002 123456 2.003 123 1.00I would like to get the following result:ID Reference Amount RecCount1 123456 1.00 22 123456 2.00 23 123 1.00 1Please help!Thanks,Shawn
I'll try to simplify the problem as much as I can.
There's survey. It has different types of question answer pairs, but the problem is in Multiple Choices, Multiple Answers questions, where user can choose, for example 3 checkboxes from 5 at the web form, for the question.
tbl_results IDresult (primary) IDquestion (foreign, to tbl_question) result (string based on CSV, may contain few IDanswers, because visitor may choose few checkboxes, for example it can be "4,6,7")
Inside those tables are data (I'll put here just two questions):
Example: tbl_questions IDquestion_question 1_________Which OS do you use? 2_________Which databases do you use? tbl_answers IDanswer_IDquestion_answer 1________1_________Windows 2________1_________Linux 3________1_________Mac OS 4________2_________SQL Server 5________2_________MS Access 6________2_________MySQL 7________2_________Oracle 8________2_________Other 9________2_________No, I do not use databases tbl_results IDresult_IDquestion_results ........ 23_______1________1,2 24_______2________4,6,7 ........ Is there a possibility to make query, using columns, but also the data inside the CSV format in results (varchar or char) column?
Result of the query would be: IDquestion_IDanswer_answer 1_________1________Windows 1_________1________Linux 2_________4________SQL Server 2_________6________MySQL 2_________7________Oracle
Further queries based on this query should be able to make statistics (GROUP BY).
I have a stored procedure which selects results based on some date calculations.
In my table I have a status column and two date fields (Approval Date and Signature Date) If the value in the status column says approved I want to select results where approval date - signature date is less than a certain number of days.
If the status is naything other than approved i want to select results where sysdate - signature date is less than the given number of days.
I have written a Query to Pivot this data like below:
SELECT WAREHOUSE,ITEM, QTY
FROM
(SELECT ITEM,WAREHOUSE,FOR1,FOR2,for3,for4,for5,for6,for7,for8,for9,for10, for11,for12,for13,for14,for15,for16,for17,for18,for19,for20,for21, for22,for23,for24 FROM mvxreport.tbldmsForecasttoMovex) p
UNPIVOT
(QTY FOR tbldmsForecasttoMovex IN (FOR1,FOR2,for3,for4,for5,for6,for7, for8,for9,for10,for11,for12,for13,for14,for15,for16,for17,for18,for19, for20,for21,for22,for23,for24))AS unpvt
I would like to add some more code to the query, so for each FOR% column, i can put a numeric value in it. The value will be the numbers ,1 - 24 . One for each line as this represents Months Forward.
I need to create a derived column for each row in a SQL dataset.
This derived column needs to be created by passing across two values from the SQL dataset and querying an Oracle table based on those parameters. If the Oracle query returns a record(s) then the derived column should be set to 1 otherwise leave it as default (0).
One of these parameters needs to check a date range so I can't use a Lookup Transformation...any ideas how I can accomplish this ?
I have a set of data spread across a number of tables regarding stock market data. An example of this follows:
Market Capitalization...
Date CompA CompB 01/01/11 100 5 02/01/11 102 4
Share Price....
Date CompA CompB 01/01/11 100 100 02/01/11 101 99
Event Data...
Date Company 01/01/11 CompA 02/01/11 CompB
Pretty simply, I need a way to retrieve the market capitalisation and share price data based on the event data. So for instance I say 'oh, there is an event on the 01/01/11 involving company A, the market capitalisation on this day was 100, then for the next event it was 4 for company B.
I can also transpose the data so that the company name is in the rows and the dates in the columns for the market cap and share price tables, but this leads to the issue that when I try and get the data, I don't know how to query the correct company for that date.
For instance: SELECT Event.Date, Event.Company FROM Event
how do I now say.....
SELECT MarketCapitalisation.Column WHERE Column = Event.Company AND MarketCapitalisation.Date = Event.Date.
I have played around with a few basic joins, but I am having issue with the principle of that second to last line of SQL (so only getting the correct column).
I still have a copy of the data in excel so can flip things around as needed, but that would only mean that I would have the issue of WHERE Column = Event.Date instead of Event.Company.
We have a table with a couple of computed columns. The value of the computed column represents a foreign key reference into another table. We're seeing a major performance problem doing a query joining between the two tables with one of the columns, but not the other. In other words, this kind of query is very fast:
select * from TheTable A, FKeyTable B where A.ComputedColumn1 = B.KeyColumn
but this one sends the CPU usage of SQL Server to 99% for a very long time:
select * from TheTable A, FKeyTable B where A.ComputedColumn2 = B.KeyColumn
The main difference we can see that the computed column that causes problems is based on a UDF, and the other one isn't (but again, both are computed). When I look at the execution plan, the slow query shows a Nested Loop (Inner Join) with a "No Join Predicate" warning, with the estimated # of rows being 70 million (which correponds to the product of 1016 rows in TheTable and 69K rows in FKeyTable). The fast query doesn't have that warning, and shows 1016 rows (the # of rows in TheTable).
Does anyone know why the usage of a UDF would induce this horribly inefficient join behavior? Anything we can do to fix it?
Hello all. I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to construct a SQL statement that will be run on a Dataset that I have. The trick is that there are many conditions that can apply. I'll describe my situation:
I have about 1700 records in a datatable titled "AISC_Shapes_Table" with 49 columns. What I would like to do is allow the user of my VB application to 'create' a custom query (i.e. advanced search). For now, I'll just discuss two columns; The Section Label titled "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" and the Weight column "W". The data appears in the following manner:
(AISC_Shapes_Table)
AISC_MANUAL_LABEL W W44x300 300 W42x200 200 (and so on) WT22x150 150 WT21x100 100
(and so on) MT12.5x12.4 12.4 MT12x10 10 (etc.)
I have a listbox which users can select MULTIPLE "Manual Labels" or shapes. They then select a property (W for weight, in this case) and a limitation (greater than a value, less than a value, or between two values). From all this, I create a custom Query string or filter to apply to my BindingSource.Filter method. However I have to use the % wildcard to deal with exceptions. If the user only wants W shapes, I use "...LIKE 'W%'" and "...NOT LIKE 'WT%" to be sure to select ONLY W shapes and no WT's. The problems arises, however, when the user wants multiple shapes in general. If I want to select all the "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" values with W <= 40, I can't do it. An example of a statement I tried to use to select WT% Labels and MT% labels with weight (W)<=100 is:
Code SnippetSELECT AISC_MANUAL_LABEL, W FROM AISC_Shape_Table WHERE (W <= 100) AND ((AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'MT%') AND (AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'WT%'))
It returns a NULL value to me, which i know is NOT because no such values exist. So, I further investigated and tried to use a subquery seeing if IN, ANY, or ALL would work, but to no avail. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? I know that if I can get an example of ONE of them to work, then I'll easily be able to apply it to all of my cases. Otherwise, am I just going about this the hard way or is it even possible? Please, ANY suggestions will help. Thank you in advance.

I am designing a dimension table which will include a short name column based on the (full) name column. For example say Product dimension where I will have ProductName and ProductShortName. ProductShortName will be the first 6 characters of ProductName. I could populate ProductShortName using:
Substring in the select when I select from the original system, e.g. SUBSTR(PRODUCT_NAME, 1, 6) AS ProductShortName
Create a derived column in the SSIS flow which does the same thing
Create the ProductShortName column as a computed column which uses substring on ProductName
Create a trigger that populates ProductShortName based on ProductName when a row is inserted or updated
Create a named calculation in the table in the Analysis Services project's data source view
Create a named query in the Analysis Services project's data source view
I usually use 1, and 5 or 6 would only be used if I only will create reports against the cubes. 3 seems easiest to maintain, so I am thinking about using that one, but maybe it is slow for the data flow as I imagine it must be something like using 4, or when is the column "created" at runtime, i.e. when the table is queried? Which approach(es) do or would you use? Pros and cons?
I have a excel file which has a column called "Code" and their values are A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H. I want to create a new column called "status" based on the values of "Code".
Code:
A B C D E F G H
If A,C,E,G then "status" = "Active" else if B,D,F,H then "Status" = "Inactive". I like to do it using "Derived Column".
What is the syntax for adding a column where you are adding a year to a date in a date format? For example adding a column displaying a year after the participation date in date format?
Using MDS 2012: I have an entity "XYZ_Entity". In "XYZ_Entity" entity I have 2 domain based Columns "DealerGroup" and "Dealer".
While inserting information into "XYZ_Entity" entity user can select the required dealer group from domain base Dealer Group values. Now for selecting Dealer he wants the dealers to be filter based on selected dealer group and he can select from the filtered list. reason to do that is he don't want to go through thousands of dealers and select an incorrect one.
I simply need the ability using SQL to add columns in an existing table before (or after) columns that already exist.
The MS SQL implementation of ALTER TABLE doesn't seem to provide the before or after placement criteria I require. How is this done in MS SQL using SQL or is there a stored procedure I can use?
I have two columns in a table:StartDate DateTime and StartTime DateTime.The StartDate column holds a value such as 07/16/2004The StartTime column holds a value such as 3:00:00 PMI want to be able to add them in a stored procedure.When I use StartDate + StartTime I get a date two days earlier than expected.For example, instead of 7/16/2004 3:00:00 PM StartDate + StartTime returns7/14/2004 3:00:00 PM.Can anyone point out wht I'm doing wrong with this one?Thanks,lq
I want to have an other employee table named employee_modified

[Code] .....
This query, less the case statement for BLAmt creates the dataset for the SSRS. Adding the Case statement for the BLAmt produces the error: "Invalid column name 'Negamt'."
