Advanced Join Question
May 12, 2008
I have a query in which I have constructed a bunch of left outer joins, however I need to also join one of the tables on the "right" side of one of those joins with an entirely different table. What I have is as follows:
select F.*, FRL.findingRiskLevel, E.entityName, G.gName, FRS.findingStatus, FCA.findingControlArea, A.aYear, A.aDesc
from Findings F
left outer join Audits A ON A.aID = F.auditID
left outer join Entities E ON E.entityID = F.findingEntity
left outer join Groups G ON G.gID = F.findingGroup
left outer join FindingsReportingStatus FRS ON FRS.findingStatusID = F.findingRepStatus
left outer join FindingsControlAreas FCA ON FCA.findingControlAreaID = F.findingControlArea
left outer join FindingsRiskLevels FRL ON FRL.findingRiskLevelID = F.findingRiskLevel
So I also need to join Audits.aTypeID on AuditTypes.aTypeID and pull back AuditTypes.aType
Any tips appreciated! My attempts thus far have failed me :)

I have two tables X and Y which need to join together. Table X has an ID field which connects to an ID field in Table Y. My problem is the ID field in Table X can contain multiple ID's EX:
Table X
ID
-------
2,1,4,
2,5,
1,
3,1,2,4,
ect...
whereas the ID field in Table Y contains one ID in each row EX:
Table Y
ID Color
------- -------
1 Green
2 Blue
3 Red
4 Yellow
5 Orange
ect...
Is there a way to join these two tables together? I need the output to be...
ID Color
------ -------
2,1,4, Blue,Green,Yellow
2,5, Blue, Orange
1, Green
3,1,2,4, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow
ect...

THIS LOOKS LIKE A LOT BUT I JUST WANTED TO GIVE ALL INFORMATION NEEDED FOR YOU TO EASILY ASSIST ME. I am not good with SQL so please bare with me. I will give a dumbed down table for us to work with:timestamp - DATA1 - DATA2 - MAXVALUENEEDED - DATA32006/8/12 12:00 123 125 1289 121 2006/8/12 12:05 124 128 1291 1232006/8/15 12:00 130 128 1190 1242006/8/15 1:00 131 127 1196 123 The columns labeled DATA do not really matter. The only important ones are timestamp and MAXVALUENEEDED but I do need the query to return all columns. What the query has to do: The query needs to find the MAX of MAXVALUENEEDED for a given DAY. Example Output- 2006/8/12 124 128 1291 1232006/8/15 131 127 1196 123As you can see the MAX values were grabbed for each given day and the unique records were returned on a per day basis. My current SQL Query is: SELECT CONVERT(varchar, timestamp, 101) AS Time, CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_AMPS_A_VAL0) AS AMPS_A, CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_AMPS_B_VAL0) AS AMPS_B, CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_AMPS_C_VAL0) AS AMPS_C,
CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_KVA_TOT_VAL0) AS KVA_TOTAL, CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_KW_TOT_VAL0), CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_VLL_CA_VAL0), CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_VLL_BC_VAL0), CONVERT(int,LV50AEPM_VLL_AB_VAL0)
FROM Table_1 T1
WHERE CONVERT(int,T1.LV50AEPM_KVA_TOT_VAL0) = (SELECT MAX(CONVERT(int,T2.LV50AEPM_KVA_TOT_VAL0)) FROM Table_1 T2 WHERE CONVERT(varchar,T1.timestamp,101) = T2.timestamp)
ORDER BY Time ASC The problem is it only returns the max value for one day instead of all days. Can anyone help me correct this? Thanks in advance for your help.

Here's one for one of you SQL genuises out there. I really appreciate any help that I can get. There are several steps to this.Step 1:I have a database that holds timesheet records for users. These records are by week. I need a query that will return the username of the people that have entered 0 time for all of their timesheets in the database.Step 2:I need a query that will delete and timesheets that have 0 time entered after the last timesheet with time entered. If they entered time in week 3 but have 0 time for week 4 and 5 and then are withdrawn at week 5 I need to remove timesheets for week 4 and 5. Note, they could have entered 0 for week 2 as long as week three has time entered.Step 3: - THIS IS THE MONSTER-Since the timesheets are by week, I need to find the date that the last time was entered. The timesheet has a start-date then suntime, montime, tuetime, wedtime etc. Sunday would equal the week start-date. So, if time was last entered on Friday, the date that I'm looking for is the start-date + 5. My problem is, How do I go about doing this? I've been trying to do it all in a query to no avail.I really appreciate any assistance that anyone can offer.Thank you,Still learning........-Scott

Hi
I'm new in Reporting Services and I have a task to solve. I wonder how to do it in Reporting Services.
For example I have few records:
ID
Year
Q1
Q2
Q3
Q4
1
2005
0
0
10
20
2
2006
20
20
35
35
3
2007
40
45
45
10 Now I create two parameters:
Q and Year
When I run this report I want to choose for example Year = 2006, and Q = 3
When I choose these values I need to calculate a field in report like this:
needed_sum = 0(Q1,year=2005) + 0(Q2,year=2005) + 10(Q3,year=2005) + 20(Q4,year=2005) + 20(Q1,year=2006) + 20(Q2,year=2006) + 35(Q3,year=2006)
I need to declare variables, like it is calculating on a section in other reports systems. Here I found only code for report where I can write some functions.
Anyway..
Did someone knows how to solve this problematic task??
Regards
Bashay

I was writing a query using both left outer join and inner join. And the query was ....
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
INNER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
[code]....
However ,the result that i got was correct.But when i did the same query using the left outer join in both the cases
i.e..
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
LEFT OUTER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
ON C.categoryid = P.categoryid)
ON
S.supplierid = P.supplierid
WHERE
S.country = N'Japan';
The result i got was same,i.e
supplier country productid productname unitprice categorynameSupplier QOVFD Japan 9 Product AOZBW 97.00 Meat/PoultrySupplier QOVFD Japan 10 Product YHXGE 31.00 SeafoodSupplier QOVFD Japan 74 Product BKAZJ 10.00 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 13 Product POXFU 6.00 SeafoodSupplier QWUSF Japan 14 Product PWCJB 23.25 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 15 Product KSZOI 15.50 CondimentsSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULLSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULL
and this time also i got the same result.My question is that is there any specific reason to use inner join when join the third table and not the left outer join.

All other rows are joining as expected.

Hi, Using Visual Web Developer and SQL Express, (coding in Csharp) I want to add a
advanced search facility to my site. Problem is I do not know how to begin.
The website is a business directory and displays company names and services that they provide.
Here is where I am at....
So far I have made one query which allows users to search the database by "town" such as if they enter "London" in the text box, it returns the relevant records into a gridview.
Rather than have a seperate text box for each query, I want to provide an advanced search box option so users can define their search and query the database by various criterias, such as geography, sector, name, number of employees in companies etc.
I have seen compact advanced search boxes on many sites!.
Replies greatly appreciated.

I want to query a database through a ASP.NET page and I want to set the page up like an advanced search page would look. My question is, how do I write the stored procedure and/or what value do I pass from ASP.NET to accomplish null or blank values. For instance, if someone wants to query by TRIP id and not vehicle ID then how do I write the where claue?

I have the following figured out, however what I want to do is almost come up with a new column based on if the row actually exists in the employeeeval column:
SELECT e.DeptID, e.LastName + ', ' + e.FirstName AS EmpName, e.EmployeeID, u.UserName FROM Employee e LEFT OUTER JOIN EmployeeEval ev ON e.EmployeeID = ev.EmployeeID LEFT OUTER JOIN [User] u ON u.Department = e.DeptID WHERE (u.RoleID = 'supervisor') AND (e.CompanyID = @CompanyID) AND (e.FacilityID = @FacilityID) AND (ev.PersonalScore IS NULL) ORDER BY e.DeptID, e.LastName
so in my select I want to add something like ev.approved which then that brings back either Null or 0. Then based on that create a variable to bring back as a string and if it = 0 make my string say 'In Progress' and if it's Null, say 'Not Started'. I would imagine I would need a Declare @Status nvarchar(15) --- but I get lost after that b/c wouldn't I need some sort of way to count throught the rows of my result set and do an IF statement? I can't quite figure this process out, after numerous attempts.

Hello.
I want to order a resultset from a table by two columns in another table. Here's how it looks:
[Books]
ID
Title
[linkBookAuthor]
BookID (Books.ID)
AuthorID (Authors.ID)
[Authors]
ID
Firstname
Lastname
AuthorOrder
As you can see it's a many to many relationship. Is there a way to order the books by Authors.Lastname (the first if there are several authors) with one query ? If not, what is the fastest way ? I don't need the names in the resultset so I only want to order the books by Authors.Lastname, not include Authors.Lastname.
Thanks for any help.

Here's a challenge for one of those database experts out there...
I want to join two tables in a Left Join format, with the first table being the one referencing the second table. Easy enough right? Well, I also want to be able to reference this second table from 3 different fields.
For example:
My tables
#1: video
id, description ...etc... award1, award2, award3
#2: award
id, description, image, etc...
As you can see, I want to be able to award more than 1 award from the "award" table to each video in the "video" table. I then want to be able to assign a variable to each field from the result of the SQL query so I can display all the information on one page for every video with every combination of possible awards.
I also, in my SQL Query, want a WHERE clause:
WHERE video.id = $vidid (a variable from a previous page so this page only displays the video I want)
My mind says surely this must be possible, but I have no idea how to go about it. Can anyone give me any hints/help/pointers/advice on this? Even if this requires two SQL queries, I may be able to work with that, but I need to know. If I'm posting at the wrong place, or nobody here knows how to do this, then I would also really appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
Thanks in advance to anyone who even reads this and thinks over it. This is for a free online fan site http://www.lostvideo.net/ that I'm helping with some redesigns.

I have been able to get several basic databases to function both in playingaround and functional ones on the web but they have all been pretty simple.I am now trying to develop a database for the web using Access. What I amreally needing help with is how to actually reduce the number of record setsthat I think i am going to need. Here is what I am trying to do.I am having people sign up and create teams. So you come to the site and yousee Team 1, Team 2... Team 8. (These numbers will later be replaced by realnames given by the team captains and replaced in the database, this will bedone by the captain through the web)You pick a team you want to be on, enterthe info and you are placed on that team (in the database) I have two tablesin the database TeamRoster (everyone on all of the teams) and Teams (Listthe captains and the names of their team)So when I query the database to fill the tables I am confused as to how Ishould go about the query. As I see it I need to build a RS (Record Set) foreach team to get the name of the team for the appropriate table, thenpopulate it with the players for that team (repeating region) if there areeight teams, that means 16 RS. This does not seem right.Am I making any sense?Thanks for trying to understand all of this.Houston

When one requirement says that MS SQL Server 2005 with Advanced Services is required, what does it mean by "Advanced Services"? Doesn't the full version of SQL2005 include all the advanced services? What are advanced services? I've seen the Express version with Advanced Services but this is the full version I'm talking about.

I'm having trouble with a multi-table JOIN statement with more than one JOIN statement.
For each order, I need to return the following: CarsID, CarModelName, MakeID, OrderDate, ProductName, Total ordered the Car Category.
The carid (primary key) and carmodelname belong to the Cars table.
The makeid and orderdate belong to the OrderDetails table.
The productname and carcategory belong to the Product table.
The number of rows returned should be the same as the number of rows in OrderDetails.

I have a merge join (full outer join) task in a data flow. The left input comes from a flat file source and then a script transformation which does some custom grouping. The right input comes from an oledb source. The script transformation output is asynchronous (SynchronousInputID=0). The left input has many more rows (200,000+) than the right input (2,500). I run it from VS 2005 by right-click/execute on the data flow task. The merge join remains yellow and the task never finishes. I do see a row count above the flat file destination that reaches a certain number and seems to get stuck there. When I test with a smaller file on the left it works OK. Any suggestions?

I'm using SQL Server 2005.
A piece of software I wrote starting timing out on a query that left outer joins a table to a view. Both the table and view have approximately the same number of rows (about 170000).
The table has 2 very similar columns, one is a varchar(1) and another is varchar(100). Neither are included in any index and beyond the size difference, the columns have the same properties. One of the employees here uses the varchar(1) column (called miscsearch) to tag large sets of rows to perform some action on. In this case, he had set 9000 rows miscsearch value to "g". The query then should join the table and view for all rows where miscsearch is set to g in the table. This query takes at least 20 minutes to run (I stopped it at this point).
If I remove the "where" clause and join all rows in the two tables, the query completes in about 20 seconds. If set the varchar(100) column (called descrip) to "g" for the same rows set via miscsearch, the query completes in about 20 seconds.
If I force the join type to a hash join, the query completes using miscsearch in about 30 seconds.
So, this works:
SELECT di.File_No, prevPlacements, balance,'NOT PLACED' as status FROM Info di LEFT OUTER HASH JOIN View_PP pp ON di.ram_file_no = pp.file_no WHERE miscsearch = 'g' ORDER BY balance DESC
and this works:
SELECT di.File_No, prevPlacements, balance,'NOT PLACED' as status FROM Info di LEFT OUTER JOIN View_PP pp ON di.ram_file_no = pp.file_no WHERE descrip = 'g' ORDER BY balance DESC
But this does't:
SELECT di.File_No, prevPlacements, balance,'NOT PLACED' as status FROM Info di LEFT OUTER JOIN View_PP pp ON di.ram_file_no = pp.file_no WHERE miscsearch = 'g' ORDER BY balance DESC
What should I be looking for here to understand why this is happening?
Thanks,
john

I have a table full of Latitudes, Longitudes, address, customername, etc. , I need to grab some input(Latitude, Longitude, range) from the user. So now I have a source lat, long(user) and destination lat, long(rows in dbase). I need to take the 2 points and compute a distance from the user given lat, long to every lat, long in the database and check that distance againt the range given from the user. If the distance is below the range, I need to put that row into a temp table and return the temp table at the end of the stored proc. As of right now I am completely lost and need some guidance. I would also like to be able to add the computed distance to a table.

Hi!
a) PROBLEM 1:
I have set up my main database like this (of course I'm showing an abbreviation):
company - int (identity)name - nchar
I have several companies stored in the previous table. Now I have another table with messages:
company - int (related with the company of the previous table)messageID - int (identity)contents - nchar
company and messageID are the main key of this table. I want to set the messageID column to change automatically. Since I declared it as identity it is working fine, but I was looking to start it on 0 on every new company:
Company messageID0 00 10 21 0 <- Here the company changed, so the messageID resets1 11 21 32 0 <- Again2 1
Any suggestions?
b) PROBLEM 2:I have my database stored locally on my computer. When I finished working with the database it has a lot of data for testing. I want to upload the database to my hosting provider or to my customer's. But the identity columns keep incrementing since the last value of my tests, so it's kind of annoying to see values as: 1250, 223, etc. when I expect to see 0,1, 2 and so on. Also, for receipts this is a very important issue.
How can I reset the identity fields?
Thank you very much for your attention and help.

(
@Arg1 nVarChar,
@Val1 nVarChar
)
AS
SELECT *
FROM Eleve
WHERE @Arg1 = @Val1
So you understand that i want to pass my argument (@Arg1) as a field of a column.
but it gives :
WHERE 'Nom' = 'Dupont'
but i want to have :
WHERE Nom = Dupont
for it to work.
Have you an idea to solve that problem ?
