Any Chance Of Using The AVG() Function To Ignore The Zero Value??

Dec 27, 2007

Hi! I'm wondering if there is a way to have the AVG() not to include the zero amount as part of the calculation. I'm looking
the field, PurchPrice and RepairCost that are used by the AVG() function...


Code:


SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase

WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style



I don't want to do this way...


Code:


SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase

WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
and (PurchPrice > 0 or RepairCost > 0)

GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style



because the PurchPrice would sometime be zero and the RepairCost wouldn't be zero.

Jan 23, 2002

Hello Everyone,

When i checked the machine this morning i saw that MS DTC service was stopped and when did start it, it was good for a sec or two then it stopped auto matically i was not sure waht was goin on...

Then i checked the Eventviewer, it said the log file is full i tried out to find ms dtc log reset or increase the size but could not find out..where can i find this.

One more thing what is the purpose of DTC, i know in sql 6.5 we have everything in enterprize manager but i can't see the same either in 7.0 or 2000 is the name changed or is it linked to some other source.

Like linked server , does this depend on MS DTC..how and what is the basic purpose of this..kindly tell me what i should do now...

I got to fix it asap..big hassle..

Thanks in advance,

How To Ignore Spaces?

Jan 31, 2008

I'm writing a store procedure to accept search strings from user on my site. Currently, this is what I have.




Code Snippet
@schoolID int = NULL,
@scholarship varchar(250) = NULL,
@major varchar(250) = NULL,
@requirement varchar(250) = NULL
--@debug bit = 0
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT * FROM [scholarship]
WHERE ([sectionID] = @schoolID OR @schoolID IS NULL)
AND ([schlrPrefix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrName] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrSufix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR @scholarship IS NULL )
AND ([Specification] LIKE '%' + @major + '%' OR @major IS NULL )
AND ([reqr1] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr2] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr3] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr4] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr5] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR @requirement IS NULL )





The problem is, somtimes the search doesn't work if there is a space behind or infront of the search string. I wonder if there is away to ignore any spaces and go right into whatever character comes next or after. If so, how do I implement that?

Ignore Error In Scheduled Job

Dec 28, 2001

I have a stored procedure that does several steps.
During the stored proc, error messages are produced when certain conditions warrant. But I want to continue anyway....
ex. in a loop in the proc...

SET @strSQL = 'Update Table1 SET col1 = ''' + @strVariable + ''''
EXEC (@strSQL)

--ERROR created by the exec statement.....

When I schedule this as a job, the first error message makes the job fail.
How can I force the proc to run completely, even if an error occurs?

Thanks in Advance..

Ignore Null Fields

Sep 29, 2005

Hi,

I have a query like this one

SELECT expense_id, CAST(expense_id AS char(10)) + ' - ' + CAST(trip_km AS char(5))+ ' - ' + CAST(expense_amount AS char(5)) + ' - ' + charge_centre AS ExpenseDesc

If charge center is null, I need to ignore this field. How can I achieve this? The reason is that if any of the field is null, it will return ExpenseDesc as null.

Thanks

Ignore Character In JOIN

Feb 26, 2008

Hi,

I have 2 tables in which there are 2 fields which hold the same piece of data. In one of the fields however there is a "_" character within the value.

So when comparing the 2 directly they will not be the same.

So the example is the following

Table 1, field 1 value is 1000220_1

Table 2, field 2 value is 10002201

So in table 1 the "_" is always in the 8th position.

Does anybody know a way in the JOIN statement how I can maybe ignore the 8th character in field 1 ? Or ignore any "_" it finds?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Michiel

BCP, Ignore Errors Problem

Mar 5, 2004

Hi,
I am trying to import data from a Text file into a database Table using SQLserver BCP utility. I am able to do that when I have all new records in my Text file. But I am getting primary key violation error when I am trying to import the record which is already existing in the table. This is correct, but I want my program to ignore these errors and import only those records which are fine.
I tried [-m maxerrors] option, but it is not working. My BCP program is getting interrupted at the first error itself, even if I give [-m100] option.
my command looks something like this,
bcp pub..employee in C:data.txt -b1 -m100 -c -t, -Sdatabase -Uuser -Ppassword

here -b1 is, processing 1 row per batch transaction
-m100 is, ignoring first 100 errors

please help.

thanks

Getting Avg To Really Ignore Null Values

Sep 2, 2005

Using SQL2000. According to Books Online, the avg aggregrate functionignores null values. ((3+3+3+3+Null)/5) predictably returns Null. Isthere a function to ignore the Null entry, adjust the divisor, andreturn a value of 3? For example:((3+3+3+3)/4) after ignoring Nullentry.If there's more than one null value, then adjust divisor accordingly.For example: ((5+5+5+4+Null+5+5+Null)/8) would be ((5+5+5+4+5+5)/6)after nulls ignored.Thanks for any help or advice.

Time-Out = 0 Being Ignore By SQL Server ?

Feb 11, 2008

I'm using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. I've created a view (very basic two field select with a inner join) -- I expect the query to take some time as there are about 1.7 million records in one table and about 3 million in the join table. Problem is, I always get a timeout error when I try to run the query.

I've checked the server settings and "Execution time-out" = 0 (no time-out). Checked this at the server and in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. So my question is why am I getting a time-out when I have it set to not time-out?

What is going on?

Thanks, Rob.

# May 15, 2008 12:12:12345
# col1|col2|col3
col1rec1data|col2rec1data|col3rec1data

Ignore Conversion Error

Aug 10, 2006

I have a table that has a date column formatted as char(6), MMDDYY.  The dates need to be converted to datetime.  I use the following command:

UPDATE  Table1
SET  CorrectedDate = CONVERT(datetime, SUBSTRING(Date, 5, 2) + SUBSTRING(Date, 1, 2) + SUBSTRING(Date, 3, 2), 1)

That works until it hits a date formatted incorrectly.  The date could have blank spaces, double zeros or an invalid month/day/year (e.g. 033986).  The command stops with a conversion error and no values are written to the CorrectedDate fields.

Is there a way to have the command skip the invalid dates and continue to write the datetime conversion for the dates that are formatted correctly?

Edit: Forgot to mention this is on SQL Server 2005 (not Express).

BCP To Ignore Newline Characters Within The Data?

Mar 9, 2000

I exporting a table of comments. There are some line returns in the comments. Some of these data are paragraphs of data! For some reason, when I am exporting the data, it treats the line return within the comment column as a new record. I am using a -c character data type so (newline character) is the row terminator. How do I get the BCP OUT to ignore a newline character within a record?

For example:
ID~Comment
-- -------
1~This is a comment
2~Hi,how are (user hit carriage)
you (you is part of next row in bcp out)
3~Next record

Thanks!
