I was asked to add an additional column to an existing query. I'm using Microsoft Query with a MS SQL 2000 server, and don't have much knowledge of SQL in general. Here's the existing query:
SELECT A.COMPANYCODE,
A.INVOICENUMBER,
A.LINENUMBER,
A.SONUMBER,
A.CUSTOMERCODE,
A.SHIPPERNUMBER,
A.INVOICEDATE,
A.ITEMCODE,
A.QUANTITYINVOICED,
A.UNITPRICE AS 'InvPrice',
A.QUANTITYINVOICED * A.UNITPRICE AS 'ExtInvPrice',
INVENTORY.UNITPRICE AS 'StdPrice',
INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST,
A.QUANTITYINVOICED * INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST AS 'ExtCost',
(A.QUANTITYINVOICED * A.UNITPRICE) - (A.QUANTITYINVOICED * INVENTORY.STANDARDCOST) AS 'GM$',
(INVENTORY.UNITPRICE - A.UNITPRICE) * -1 AS 'PriceListDiff'
FROM ABW.DBO.SALESANALYSISHISTORY A,
ABW.DBO.INVENTORY INVENTORY
WHERE INVENTORY.COMPANYCODE = A.COMPANYCODE
AND INVENTORY.ITEMCODE = A.ITEMCODE
AND ((A.COMPANYCODE = 'csp')
AND (A.QUANTITYINVOICED <>$ 0)
AND (A.INVOICEDATE BETWEEN '03/1/08' AND '03/31/08'))
ORDER BY A.INVOICEDATE,
A.ITEMCODE
They want a column added to the current query where if A.Unitprice is greater than or equal to Inventory.UnitPrice then populate the column with A.QuantityInvoiced*A.UnitPrice. I posted on another forum, and the advice I got was to add this:
SELECT NewColumn = CASE
WHEN A.Unitprice >= Inventory.UnitPrice THEN A.QuantityInvoiced * A.Unitprice
ELSE 'null'
END,
FROM ABW.DBO.SALESANALYSISHISTORY A,
ABW.DBO.INVENTORY INVENTORY
I'm not sure how to integrate it to the current query, so I've tried running it by itself, and I get the error: Didn't expect 'A' after the SELECT column list.
Any help would be greatly appreciated to modify the current query to display the new column.
I have a a Group By query which is working fine aggregating records by city. Now I have a requirement to focus on one city and then group the other cities to 'Other'. Here is the query which works:
Select [City]= CASE WHEN [City] = 'St. Louis' THEN 'St. Louis' ELSE 'Other Missouri City' END, SUM([Cars]) AS 'Total Cars' From [Output-MarketAnalysis] Where [City] IN ('St. Louis','Kansas City','Columbia', 'Jefferson City','Joplin') AND [Status] = 'Active' Group by [City]
Here is the result:
St. Louis 1000 Kansas City 800 Columbia 700 Jefferson City 650 Joplin 300
When I add this Case When statement to roll up the city information it changes the name of the city to 'Other Missouri City' however it does not aggregate all Cities with the value 'Other Missouri City':
Select [City]= CASE WHEN [City] = 'St. Louis' THEN 'St. Louis' ELSE 'Other Missouri City' END, SUM([Cars]) AS 'Total Cars' From [Output-MarketAnalysis] Where [City] IN ('St. Louis','Kansas City','Columbia', 'Jefferson City','Joplin') AND [Status] = 'Active' Group by [City]
Here is the result:
St. Louis 1000 Other Missouri City 800 Other Missouri City 700 Other Missouri City 650 Other Missouri City 300
I want to add an INNER JOIN based on a condition. If @Sports is not '' then I want to add the inner join statement...The following doesnt work:declare @Sports nvarchar(50)set @sports='1' SELECT DISTINCT tblUserData.UserName,tblUserData.UserCode,Description,IsDonator,IsVIP,BirthDate,IsMale,ShowAgeOnly,tblCountries.CountryPicture,case @LanguageColumnName when 'nl' then tblSexuality.nl when 'en' then tblSexuality.en when 'de' then tblSexuality.deendas sexualityname,tblCountries.CountryName,ThumbNailPicture,UserRanking,LastActivityDate,NearestBigCity,DistanceToNearestBigCity,ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY IsVip DESC,UserRanking DESC,LastActivityDate DESC) as RowNum FROM aspnet_UsersINNER JOIN tblUserData ON aspnet_Users.UserId = tblUserData.UserIDINNER JOIN tblCountries ON tblUserData.Country=tblCountries.CountryID INNER JOIN tblSexuality ON tblUserData.Sexuality=tblSexuality.SexualityID ,case @Sportswhen <>'' INNER JOIN tblUsersAndSports ON tblUserData.UserCode=tblUsersAndSports.UserCodeend
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN visit_type = 0 THEN visitor_id END) AS [New Visitors], COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN visit_type = 0 THEN visitor_id END) AS [Returning Visitors] FROM content_hits_tbl WHERE (hit_date BETWEEN DATEADD(mm, - 1, GETDATE()) AND GETDATE())
=======================
How do I add up both COUNT/CASE columns? Would it be: SUM([New Visitors] + [Returning Visitors]) AS Total
I tried this and it doesn't work. I get invalid column names error for both.
I have even tried: SUM([COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN visit_type = 0 THEN visitor_id END)] + [COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN visit_type = 0 THEN visitor_id END)]) AS Total
You would think that there would be some gui functionality in VS08 that would do this...
Why couldn't they make SQL syntax error mistakes a little less vague.
Anyway, I was wondering, is it possible to use a set in your case statement?
CASE ( select distinct tbhtg.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeGroupingCd from tblTrainingBlockHistory tbh inner join tblTrainingBlockHistoryType tbht on tbh.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeCd = tbht.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeCd inner join tblTrainingBlockHistoryTypeGrouping tbhtg on tbht.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeGroupingCd = tbhtg.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeGroupingCd where (select dbo.fnTrainingBlockStatus( 1234, getdate())) = tbht.TrainingBlockHistoryTypeCd ) WHEN 'S' then (COUNT(DISTINCT TRD.TrainingBlockHistoryId) = COUNT(DISTINCT SWT.TrainingBlockHistoryId)) end
This is giving me an error on the WHEN statement. The error is "Incorrect syntax near '='" Have no idea how to fix this. But the select statement seems to work, and as far as I can tell, that is how you write a CASE statement.
Also, this CASE statement is inside the HAVING clause - is that going to be a problem?
Hi everybody have this query that list all the duplicate records meaning the occurence of pubinfid in more than one row. This gets me fine. Iwant thought to insert a where clause that further filters the result where pubid between 30 and 33. I tried placing it after the FROM CLAUSE BUT DOESN'T GIVE me what I want it still includes records other than the between clause. Also I tried placing it after the HAVING clause but it includes records which has only one count.. Where could I place the where clause or is ther an alternative for this.
SELECT a.pubinfid, a.pubid, a.pubcount FROM pubssubscribe AS a INNER JOIN (SELECT pubinfid FROM pubssubscribe GROUP BY pubinfid HAVING (COUNT(*) > 1)) AS b ON a.pubinfid = b.pubinfid
I have a select statement and I would like to know which when clause(1st set of whens) was fired and the value of the then for further use in my query.

I need to pull one field from one table and one field from another table that is i need to pull 'eGroupName' field from 'Exception' Table and 'eGroup Description' field from 'eGroup' Table but there is no connection between these two tables means there is no forign key relationship between these two tables but i need to pull both fields . If i use INNER JOIN i need to mention relationship between both tables right? so how to write query for this , and one more thing is i need to add an extra column as "Location"which is not there in either of tables for that i need to use CASE Statement as if DataSource = 1 then "ABC" else "BCD" . pls help me out in writing SQL Statement??? is this correct ?? its showing me errors Select Exception.eGroupName, eGroup.eGroupDescription from Exception Inner Join eGroup ON ??? (case when 'DataSource =1' then 'ABC' then 'BCD' endcase) Where ..... Pls correct me Thanks
I am using a CASE statement within a SELECT query to sum up values for different customers.
SELECT CR_CUST.Customer_Code, 'General_01' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '01' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END, 'General_07' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '07' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END, 'General_08' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '08' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END FROM CR_CUST INNER JOIN CR_INVOICE ON CR_CUST.Customer_Code = CR_INVOICE.Customer_Code INNER JOIN CR_PROD ON CR_INVOICE.Product_Code = CR_PROD.Product_Code WHERE (CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 1 OR CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 7 OR CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 8) GROUP BY CR_CUST.Customer_Code, CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code
My question is this - is it possible to expand my SQL Query into a Sub Query so that each customers data appears on the same line of the results?, like so...
I can achieve this by writing my results into a temporary table and extracting the data with the following SQL Query, but I just thought it would be really cool if I could do it in one SQL Statement without using a temporary table.
SELECT Customer_Code, SUM(General_01), SUM(General_07), SUM(General_08) FROM #MyTempTable GROUP BY Customer_Code
I have the following query, that returns the proper count value I am looking for. I would like to modify it a little bit, but can't remember exactly how to do it.
select count(messageFromID) FROM tblMessage WHERE messageFromID = 1000) as OutBoundMessages
Basically now, it returns the "OutBoundMessages" column
I would like it to return "OutboundMessages_unChecked" and "OutboundMessages_checked" as well as "OutboundMessages_total" (I guess I could determine this value by adding the two values in the front end too. I definatley dont want to do a lookup to determine the total )
I determine if the column is "checked" or "unChecked" by a column in tblMessage
Can i use a CASE statement in a prediction query. the following query is throwing me an error
SELECT CASE [Sales Forecast Time Series].[City Code] when 'LA' then 'Los Angeles' WHEN 'CA' THEN 'California' ELSE 'OTHERS' END, PredictTimeSeries([Sales Forecast Time Series].[Sales Value],5) From [Sales Forecast Time Series]
ERROR: Parser: The statement dialect could not be resolved due to ambiguity.
Also
Is it possible to discretize the Sales Value column using a the CASE statement, the output column of PredictTimeSeries function.
Is there a link that can give me a comprehensive info on what can be achieved and what cant be using DMX queries
In SS 2000 I want to create a sproc that returns the correct address block for a contact. I want to concatenate AddressLine1 and AddressLine2 if AddressLine2 has a value. When I run the following query I get an error (below):

I've done this before but am completely stumped. Any ideas?
table A: | ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE | GOOD | -------------------------------------------- | 1 | orange | cabbage | no | | 1 | apple | lettuce | yes | | 1 | kiwi | broccoli | no | | 1 | pear | kale | yes |
table B: | ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE | ------------------------------- | 1 | apple | lettuce | | 2 | pear | kale |
If the fruit and vegetable in table A is found in table B, then set the GOOD column = yes, else no.
This is what I have so far.
update tableA set GOOD = (case when tableA.id = C.id then 'yes' else 'no' end ) from (select tableA.id as id from tableA A left join tableB B on B.fruit = A.fruit and B.vegetable = A.vegetable) C
How I am using a CASE statement within a WHERE clause to filter data:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetSomeStuff @filter1 varchar(100) = '', @filter2 varchar(100) = '' AS BEGIN SELECT
[Code] .
What I want, is to be able to pass in a single value to filter the table, or if I pass in (at the moment a blank) for no filter to be applied to the table.
Is this a good way to accomplish that, or is there a better way? Also, down the line I'm probably going to want to have multiple filter items for a single filter, what would be the best way to implement that?
I have a view where I'm using a series of conditions within a CASE statement to determine a numeric shipment status for a given row. In addition, I need to bring back the corresponding status text for that shipment status code.
Previously, I had been duplicating the CASE logic for both columns, like so:
Code Block...beginning of SQL view... shipment_status = CASE [logic for condition 1] THEN 1 WHEN [logic for condition 2] THEN 2 WHEN [logic for condition 3] THEN 3 WHEN [logic for condition 4] THEN 4 ELSE 0 END, shipment_status_text = CASE [logic for condition 1] THEN 'Condition 1 text' WHEN [logic for condition 2] THEN 'Condition 2 text' WHEN [logic for condition 3] THEN 'Condition 3 text' WHEN [logic for condition 4] THEN 'Condition 4 text' ELSE 'Error' END, ...remainder of SQL view...
This works, but the logic for each of the case conditions is rather long. I'd like to move away from this for easier code management, plus I imagine that this isn't the best performance-wise.
This is what I'd like to do:
Code Block ...beginning of SQL view... shipment_status = CASE [logic for condition 1] THEN 1 WHEN [logic for condition 2] THEN 2 WHEN [logic for condition 3] THEN 3 WHEN [logic for condition 4] THEN 4 ELSE 0 END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE shipment_status
WHEN 1 THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN 2 THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END, ...remainder of SQL view...
This runs as a query, however all of the rows now should "Error" as the value for shipment_status_text.
Is what I'm trying to do even currently possible in T-SQL? If not, do you have any other suggestions for how I can accomplish the same result?
I am having a server where replication is set up between 2 differnt databases. It is currently running. I want to add a couple of tables to the replication. I tried using sp_addArticle, but after executing it, in the properties of the publication it shows the new tables, but at the database level the tables are missing.
I tried with sp_addsubscription but I am getting strange error:
Server: Msg 14100, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addsubscription, Line 240 Specify all articles when subscribing to a publication using concurrent snapshot processing.
What can I do to publish the tables into the target database?
Hi! I want to add a word to a value if the value already exists in that field. How to do this? Please help me. In detail, i have 'id', 'name' and 'info' three columns in one Data Table. When I inserted one value to id field, if the value already exists it should add a word to that value and it should get inserted. Please help me to do this? Thanks in advance!

what is best and quicker way to add 500 columns to existing table having 145 columns already.
Is there any way to avoid manual work of adding columns one by one in design mode or using script.
I have a TXT file (comma delimited) that contains all those columns names as a first row,but I am not sure if i can use DTS package to create table design having such sourcre TXT file.
We currently have a 2 node Active/Passive 2 named instance SQL 2000 cluster. We will be chaning the configuration to Active/Active, basically moving 1 instance to the passive node (so we can take advantage of the resources on the passive node).
We would also like to add 3 nodes to the cluster making it a 5 node SQL cluster. What we are thinking of doing is basically making it an Active/Active/Active/Active with the 5th server being passive. The question I have is will I be able to add and install the 3 new nodes without having to redo the SQL cluster? Should I install the two new active nodes with the default SQL instace or do I have to install SQL with named instances? (actually I think the named instances is the way to go but then I wouldn't be posting here if I was sure about the answer).
I cannot figure out how to add a default constraint to an existing column. The syntax I'm using is :
ALTER TABLE table_name WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT column_name DEFAULT (0)
This gives me a syntax error.
The column was originally added with a default constraint of 1 to a 2.6 million row table. I dropped the existing constraint and need to add the new default constraint of 0 for that column.
Sorry I'm pretty new to SQL so I don't know if this is a simple question. I have a table, and I am trying to add a column to the table and populate this column using what would be called an 'IF' function in Excel.
Basically 'column A' has numbers in it. I want SQL to look at 'column A' and if the first 5 digits of the number in 'column A' are 00001, then put 'description A' into new column 'column B'. If the first 5 digits of the number in 'column A' are 00002, then put 'description B' into 'column A' etc.

Is it possible to add new data to an existing report. I already updated the SQL query, but the new data does not appear within the report. How can I modify the rows, columns and data fields???
I removed all constraints in order to load a bunch of data into a table, now I'm wondering if I can add an identity column to this table which does contain data or if I have to create a new table with the identity column and insert the data into that.
Is there an easy way to install reporting services on a machine that is already running sp1? When I initially isntalled Sql Server I did not install ssrs. Now, SP1 is installed and when I run the setup tool to install ssrs, it warns me regarding a "version change", presumablly because my media is not sp1, but RTM. Any ideas?
