Ambiguous Variable Name?

Oct 10, 2007

Hi,

I have a package that I migrated from DTS. There are several "execute SQL" tasks that take an Input parameter of "myVariable", which is a string defined at the package level and has a default value assigned to it.

However, the package is throwing this error:

Error 1 Validation error. Err LogComletion : Failed to lock variable "myVariable" for read access with error 0xC001F032 "The variable name is ambiguous because multiple variables with this name exist in different namespaces. Specify namespace-qualified name to prevent ambiguity.".

How come I cannot use this variable when defined at the package level? If I move the variable to the task level, it works fine, but I want to re-use the variable in several places in the package.

Thanks

SQL 2012 :: Ambiguous Column Name

Mar 21, 2014

I'm planning an upgrade to SQL Server 2012 and noticed the following.

We have a query that includes a duplicate column name in the SELECT statement. This query happens to work in a db we have that is set to SQL 2000 (80) compatibility level, but the same exact query fails when I set the db to SQL 2008 (100) compatibility level.

The error is (ColumnName is just an example):

Ambiguous column name 'ColumnName'

Ambiguous Values Returned

May 15, 2008

Hello,

I'm brand new to this forum and I'm stuck. We've got a query which queries three tables: booking, catheter and patients. The following (dodgy) query has pulled off the data for years, without problems:


SELECT
CARDIAC_CATHETER.CARDIAC_CATHETER_ID,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.OPERATOR1,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE,
BOOKING.STATUS,
BOOKING.TEST_DATE AS BOOKING_TEST_DATE,
BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.ITEM_NO,
CARDIAC_CATHETER.BILLING_CATEGORY,
PATIENTS.REFERRING_PHYSICIAN1,
PATIENTS.HOSPITAL_UNIT_NUMBER
FROM
(CARDIAC_CATHETER INNER JOIN PATIENTS ON CARDIAC_CATHETER.PATIENT_ID = PATIENTS.PATIENT_ID)
LEFT OUTER JOIN BOOKING ON PATIENTS.PATIENT_ID = BOOKING.PATIENT_ID AND 'CATHETER' = BOOKING.CLINIC AND BOOKING.STATUS <> 'CANCELLED' AND BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME >= (CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE - 1)
AND BOOKING.PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME < (CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE + 1)
WHERE
CARDIAC_CATHETER.TEST_DATE > '2005-04-01' AND CARDIAC_CATHETER.BILLING_CATEGORY LIKE '3%'


About 2500 perfect rows and 12 rows which have duplicate catheter id values. There are six pairs of duplicated records. It's only the cardiac_catheter.catheter_id and cardiac_catheter.test_date which are duplicated - the first row shown below contains correct values, the second doens't. The other values returned, on both rows, are correct. Here is some sample data:

CARDIAC_CATHETER_ID
cat_id1234
cat_id1234

CARDIAC_CATHETER_TEST_DATE
19/12/2005 13:17
19/12/2005 13:17

BOOKING_TEST_DATE
19/12/2005 13:33
19/12/2005 08:46

PROCEDURE_DATE_TIME
20/12/2005 10:30
19/12/2005 08:46

CLINIC
CATHETER
CATHETER

I know the query is rubbish. Has anyone got any idea how it can be improved and sorted so that we don't pull back ambiguous data?

Thanks,

Stewart

Ambiguous Column Name Error

Nov 16, 2006

Hi,

I am getting an ambiguous column name error, but I am aliasing the column in question. The problem seems to be that I'm trying to use the same column in 2 inner joins:

select trackprice.id from trackprice tp
inner join track tr on tp.trackid = tr.id
inner join trackstorage ts on ts.trackid = tr.id
inner join ... etc ....

.... gives me the error 'ambiguous column name trackid' - can this not be done with inner joins this way?

Thanks,
Alex

Ambiguous Length Varbinary Variable

Jun 24, 2008

Hi,

I'm trying simple code:

declare @varbinary varbinary(8000)
set @varbinary = 2592
print len( @varbinary )

number length
2590 4 bytes
2591 4 bytes
2592 3 bytes ????
2593 4 bytes

All number in range 1 - 9000 has length 4 bytes except these numbers:

32,288,544,800,1056,1312,1568,1824,2080,2336,2592,2848,3104,3360,3616,3872,4128,4384,4640,4896,5152,5408,5664,5920,6176,6432,6688,6944,7200,7456,7712,7968,8480,8736,8992

These numbers has length 3 bytes !

Why?

I´m using varbinary variable to transport ID values and parsing in loop

set @cnt = len( @binEmpIDList ) / 4 -- 4 length
....
insert into @List( ID ) values( substring( @varbinary, @i * 4 + 1, 4 ) )
...

but this algorithm malfunctioning in enumerated numbers.

Please help, how correct this.
ID values in @varbinary too much. I cannot using convert varbinary to bigint and convert bigint to string.

Aggregate Function/Ambiguous Trouble

Nov 18, 2007

I'm a newb and this has been giving me a trouble for a while.



Code Block
SELECT class.classcode, classname, instrFirst, instrLast, csDay, CONVERT(nvarchar(30), csStart, 8), CONVERT(nvarchar(30), csEnd, 8)
FROM class, class_section, instructor
WHERE class.classcode = class_section.classcode
Group By className
Order By classname, csNum;






Msg 8120, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Column 'class.classCode' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.


class and instructor and class_section are their own tables but classcode and instrID are foreign keys on the class_section table. If anyone can explain this as clearly as possible that would be great (the help examples are usually too complicated)

Random Ambiguous Column Name Error

Mar 7, 2008

Hi

I have a query that is exhibiting a strange behaviour on different databases.

I've got something like this ...


select a.col, ...
from tab1 as a inner join ...
union
select a.col, ...
from tab1 as a inner join ...
order by col

I know how to fix the problem, I make the last line read "order by a.col" ... that is understood.

However, on some databases I get an error and on others I don't. All databases are on the same server instance which is sql server 2005 developer (developer version isn't relevant as it happens on customer machines too).

I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas why it is 'random'. It's as though the statement is being compiled differently on different databases ... what is influencing that ?

I'm fishing for a way to create a workaround, so if anyone has any ideas it might push me down the road of understanding why.

The real code is way too big to include here and it's not really relevant.


As a clue to what I'm looking for, if I copy the database to another database using SSIS, the resultant database doesn't cause the error despite being logically the same.

Presumably it is some physical or security difference that is causing the error to occur.

Thanks if you have any ideas,

Richard.

Hi all,A (possibly dumb) question, but I've had no luck finding a definitiveanswer to it. Suppose I have two tables, Employees and Employers, whichboth have a column named "Id":Employees-Id-FirstName-LastName-SSNetc.Employers-Id-Name-Addressetc.and now I perform the following join:SELECT Employees.*, Employers.*FROM Employees LEFT JOIN Employers ON (Employees.Id=Employers.Id)The result-set will contain two "Id" columns, so SQL Server willdisambiguate them; one column will still be called "Id", while theother will be called "Id1." My question is, how are you supposed toknow which "Id" column belongs to which table? My intuition tells me,and limited testing seems to indicate, that it depends on the order inwhich the table names show up in the query, so that in the aboveexample, "Id" would refer to Employees.Id, while "Id1" would refer toEmployers.Id. Is this order guaranteed?Also, why does SQL Server use such a IMO brain-damaged technique tohandle column name conflicts? In MS Access, it's much morestraightforward; after executing the above query, you can use"Employees.Id" and "Employers.Id" (and more generally,"TableNameOrTableAlias.ColumnName") to refer to the specific "Id"column you want, instead of "Id" and "Id1" -- the"just-tack-on-a-number" strategy is slightly annoying when dealing withcomplex queries.--Mike S

Ambiguous Complex Type Definition With XML Source. Workaround?

Jan 19, 2006

Hi,

This could well be down to my _limited_ knowledge of XSD.



I have a document and SXD supplied by 3rd party.

Both documents are valid, according to XMLSpy.

When I give the document and xsd to SSIS XML Source it complains about ambiguous complex types.



In the XML doc there is an element called Allowance that has child elements.

There is also a group which references many other elements including Allowance.

When I remove the group, SSIS stops complaining about allowance.



Would the problem stem from SSIS creating an output called Allowance ('cause of it's children), getting to the group and again, 'cause allowance has children, try create another output called Allowance.

Is my understanding of this correct? Is there a work around for a situation like this?

The only thing I can come up with is deleting the group....

Possible to alias an element? Could alias the Group > Allowance g_Allowance.



Cheers,

Crispin

The Connection Is Not Found. This Error Is Thrown By Connections Collection When The Specific Connection Element Is Not Found

May 1, 2007

I've got a package which reads a text file into a table and updates another. I set up configurations so that I could import it into the SSIS store on both my dev and live servers. Now, I'm getting this error. I tried removing the configs and am still getting it.

I've been through each step and everything looks okay. Does anyone have any idea (a) what's wrong, (b) how to localise the error or (c) get any additional information? Or do I just have to recreate the package from scratch?

How To Match Usernames From A SP?

Mar 25, 2008

Hello,
I am writing a SP, inside the SP i have a select statement.
I also have another SP, when i run it, it sends a list back with all the users that are currently online.
Now in my first SP, i want to construct a select statement that returns a users data, but only for the users that are online.
 
This is the first SP (GetAllOnlineUsers), that produces a list with users online (just abit rewritten from the membership function total users online):
SELECT u.Username FROM dbo.aspnet_Users u(NOLOCK), dbo.aspnet_Applications a(NOLOCK), dbo.aspnet_Membership m(NOLOCK) WHERE u.ApplicationId = a.ApplicationId AND LastActivityDate > @DateActive AND a.LoweredApplicationName = LOWER(@ApplicationName) AND u.UserId = m.UserId
 
This is my second SP, in witch i want to get the online users data:
SELECT m.username, d.data1, d.data2 FROM m.userstable INNER JOIN data ON (data.username = m.username) WHERE (m.username IN (EXEC GetAllOnlineUsers))
Is it possible to exec a SP into a select statement?

Sysindexes Don't Match

Sep 7, 2004

It seems my sysindexes table is inaccurate on a nonclustered index. In my case the rowcount (rows and rowcnt) do not match the actual rowcount of the table. The command UPDATE STATISTICS doesn't change the rows or rowcount, adding 'FULSLCAN' won't budge rowcount either.

After I did a dbcc reindex, the number of rows matched, however, upon adding rows in the table both rows and rowcount are out of sync again.

It's a fairly straightforward table, no triggers, no computed fields, only integer, datetime, varchar and bigint columns. There's a clustered index on a bigint column and a nonclustered index on a integer column.

dbcc show_statistics show that the nonclustered index is updated and it's rows and rows sampled match the number of rows in the table (not in the sysindexes-table).

I'd like to know if I'm chasing ghosts here or if there's something very wrong here. What could be causing the counts being inaccurate? Anyone who could shed some light?

Match The Correct Value

Apr 25, 2008

I have this sql statement:

SELECT Countries.Name, Companies.ShortName, Persons.FirstName, Persons.LastName, PersonSkills.Skills
FROM PersonSkills INNER JOIN....

How can I choose a certain value from PersonSkills.Skills?

for example, I would like to choose a value from PersonSkills.Skills that matches a certain product. I can do the Max/Min value but the selected value needs to match the product.

The tables that I have are:
PersonSkills:
id, ProductID, Skills

Product:
id, ProductName

Ive been reading and playing around with this without success.

Select Where No Match

Mar 14, 2014

I want to select Property names or owner id from table A where there is no match between owner ID in table A and B , for example Property 3 in red. In table A only one person can be listed as owner of property. In table B many people can be listed as owner of the same property.

The way i script will return property 1 twice (as no match) because the owner ID from table A '123456' mismatch twice with owner ID from table B

'111111' and '222222'. I dont want Property 1 to be selected at all because the owner '123456' is listed as one of the owners in Table B

Match Value From Column In T1 To T2?

Nov 11, 2014

I have two tables in the same DB, one named “Client” one named “Case”.

-One column inside Client is “ClientID”, another is “ClientCode”.

-One column inside Case is “CaseID” and another is “ClientCode”, which corresponds to the ClientCode column in the previous table.

I need a file with output that looks like this CaseID+ClientID.

So, an example row from the “Client” table” could be ClientID = 123, ClientCode=999. An example row from the “Case table” could be CaseID=555, ClientCode=999. So, I need output of 555123 .

Extact Match

May 4, 2007

Scenario: 2 sets of data
Set 1 (200 records): firstname, lastname, address, city, phone
Set 2 (100 records): firstname, lastname, address, city, phone

I run a query using phone as criteria/condition (where xx.phone=yy.phone). I got 75 matches based on the phone numbers

However, if I deleted the phone numbers from set 2 data, used below query, the return result is only 45 matches. My question is what technique that I can use to optimize the result just based on criteria like first, last, and address.

select xx.firstname, xx.lastname, yy.Firstname, yy.Lastname, xx.address, yy.address, xx.city, yy.city, yy.phone
from set2 xx, set1 yy where
substring(soundex(xx.Firstname),0,3)=substring(soundex(yy.Firstname),0,3)
and substring(soundex(xx.lastname),0,4)=substring(soundex(yy.Lastname),0,4)
and substring(xx.address,1,7)= substring(yy.address,1,7)
and xx.city=yy.city;


Thank you

Match In Two Tables

Dec 28, 2007

Hi, hope someone can help.

I have a table of employees and two sites. Most employees only do shifts at the one site but may occasionally work at the other site. What i want is the details of those who have worked at both sites.

for e.g.

Employees
1 Dave
2 Peter
3 John

Site 1
Mon John
Tue Peter
Wed John
Thu John
Fri Peter

Site 2
Mon Dave
Tue Dave
Wed Dave
Thu Dave
Fri Peter

So the answer should be 2 Peter. Hope this explains the problem. Probably very obvious but it has me stumped.

Thanks

Mix And Match Rows

Jul 14, 2006

In the trading (stock market) industry there is a practice of rolling up (merging) multiple trades into a single trade in an effort to save on ticket charges. The way this is done is performing a SUM() on the quantities and calculating an average price. (Average price is the SUM(Qty * Price) / SUM(Qty).

So, given :

Qty     Price
20      $5
20      $10


You get:

40      $7.5           -- 20 + 20 and SUM(20 * $5, 20 * $10) / SUM(20 + 20)

Here is my dilema: If given a set of trades, I need to loop through them and check every combination to determine which one matches the expected rolled-up final trade. In other words,

If I know that the final trade is:

15     $10

And I have the following trades in my set:

TradeId     Qty     Price
1                10       $10
2                 7         $20
3                5          $10

I need to check the roll-up of trades (1, 2), (1, 3), and (2, 3) and determine that it final trade was made by rolling up trades 1 and 3.

In the real situation, the number of trades that I need to check is not set to a specific number.

Any help would be appreciated. Cursors, temp tables, functions, recursive calls, .NET (I am running SQL 2005 so have access to CLR) are ALL acceptable solutions...







Here is a sample SQL code (table and data) to work with.

USE [tempdb]

DROP TABLE [Trades]
GO

CREATE TABLE [Trades] (
[TradeId] INT,
[Quantity] INT,
[Price] DECIMAL(6,2)
)
GO

-- need to find trades that rollup to quantity 30 and average price 7.5

INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (1, 10, 10)
INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (2, 10, 5.0)
INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (3, 25, 7.5)
INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (4, 10, 10.0)
INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (5, 2, 2.0)
INSERT INTO [Trades] VALUES (6, 10, 7.5)

SELECT
[TradeId],
[Quantity],
[Price],
[Quantity] * [Price] AS [MarketValue]
FROM
[Trades]

-- need to find the trades that roll up to quantity 30 with an average price of $7.5
-- Trades 2, 4, and 6 are the solution

SELECT
SUM([Quantity]) AS [TotalQuantity],
SUM([Quantity] * [Price]) / SUM([Quantity]) AS [AveragePrice]
FROM
[Trades]
WHERE
[TradeId] IN (2, 4, 6)

-- what I need to get back is the SET of rows that make up the rolled trade, so I want to see

SELECT
*
FROM
[Trades]
WHERE
[TradeId] IN (2, 4, 6)


Thank you for any and all help in this.
