Breaking Down A Number Column From A Query?
Sep 18, 2007
I’m okay with simple queries but as I’m no expert and have failed to find perhaps the correct wording to describe this method, if at all possible to do, so I have come to ask here.
What I would like to do is take a column from a query and then break down that column into separate results.
So the full query results:
36,18/09/2007 10:00:00,NULL,000102000304,NULL
The column I would like to brake down is (Unique Reference Number):
000102000304
And I would like to break it down to get the last 2 parts (0003 and 04):
0001 | 02 | 0003 | 04
Is this possible to do?
If so where should I be looking or what should I be looking at?
Many Thanks

Hi DBA's,
I need to break up a 34 byte column into several columns. Here is my problem.
Table A:
Col1..Col2..Col3..Col4..Col5..Col6..Col7..Col8..Co l9..Col10
Col 9 is char (2) and Col10 is char (34). It is this column that needs to be broken up into several columns depending on the value in Col 9.
Col1 to Col3 is the key to the record.
So say if record 1 has Col 9 value 'AA' then Col10 ( 34 bytes) is to be spilt into 10+10+10+4 (four columns).The value 'AA' can repeat for several records and the value in Col 10 can change for the same value 'AA'.
Now say record 27 has Col 9 value 'BB' then Col 10 is to be split as 5+25+4 (3 columns).
There are 15 such unique values of Col 9. I have the file layouts for Col 10 for each distinct value of Col 9. So using the file layouts and Table A which exists in my database how do I proceed.
Need I make 15 tables ( one each for the 15 unique Col 9 values). These structure
Col1..Col2..Col3...Col9 (the key fields and Col 9) will be common to every table. Plus the file layouts will serve as additional columns specific to each of these tables.
Kindly help.
Vivek

I have been working on a pretty ugly stored procedure recently, while debugging I added a char(10) to the end of each line of the SQL query so I could copy it to query analyzer(QA) and debug the SQL syntax output from of the stored procedure.
It had no effect on the stored procedure working, but when I copied the query to QA it got the error below, so I removed them all and added them in one line at a time to find the problem.
--Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
--Line 3: Incorrect syntax near ','.
Below are the 2 querys, the only difference is the Char(10) between Amt6 and Amt7!
http://www.rakbiz.com/download/broken.txt
http://www.rakbiz.com/download/working.txt
I also tried char(13) with same results.
any ideas why this is happening or how to add line breaks for readability without this problem?
Thanks for your help!

On a webpage, there are filters to choose from. Like date, amount, SSN (multiple filters can be choosen).I have a single query so far. SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT [column1], [column2], [column3], [column4], [column5] FROM [table] WHERE [column4] = 'condition4' AND [column5] = @total_bill AND [last_change] >= @txtStartDate AND [last_change] <= @txtEndDate ", Conn) ; cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@total_bill", total_bill1.Text)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@txtStartDate", txtStartDate.Text)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@txtEndDate", txtEndDate.Text)); I want to break the query so that it executes on the basis of different sets of conditions (filters). If I dont select date filter, then the above query will not execute properly.Please help.

Hi GuysI don't want to keep asking for your help all the time on each individualquery, so could you please help me to break the myths on the following:1) I have 2 tables. Once is called ACCOUNTS and the other ACCOUNTBUDGET.ACCOUNTS includes all of the usual details for customers and suppliers, egthe account code (as ACCOUNTID), the account name (as NAME), etc.ACCOUNTBUDGET basically holds a transaction line for each month and it'scorresponding year to store the turnover for that month, eg one row containsACCOUNTID, PERIOD (ie the month), YEAR and TURNOVER.Now a lot of the SQL 6.5 tables that I deal with are in this vein and theusual query is that I want to list all of the ACCOUNTIDs and NAMEs thatexist in the ACCOUNTS table and then show for example what their TURNOVER isfor a applicable PERIOD and YEAR, which are all held in the ACCOUNTSBUDGETtable.Now if I do a quick query using MS Query all I get are rows that haverelated values in both the ACCOUNTS and ACCOUNTSBUDGET table when I havespecified say a certain PERIOD and YEAR.The main point of my current reporting problem is that I want to show allthe ACCOUNTIDs and NAMEs in ACCOUNTS that have zero TURNOVER for aparticular PERIOD and YEAR.I'm positive that I have to create a 2 step query/join, but I don't know howto do it. What is the method? People in this NG, can rattle one up inseconds, but I just don't see the logic. Can you help me with this queryand let me know how you manage to fathom it.2) Are there any good web sites that explain in kiddie form how to do thissort of thing?I really appreciate your help on this.RegardsLaphan

Using c# in the compact framework, is there a way to do a parameterized query for counting the number of records where a specified column is null. I tried all of these, but none of them work:
cmd.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlInt32.Null));
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", DBNull.Value));
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlInt32.Null));
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
cmd.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", DBNull.Value));
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Int32));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = SqlInt32.Null;
cmdGetNumRead.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Int32));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = SqlInt32.Null;
cmdGetNumRead.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Int32));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = DBNull.Value;
cmdGetNumRead.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Int32));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = DBNull.Value;
cmdGetNumRead.CommandText = "select count(*) from TableName where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Variant));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = SqlInt32.Null;
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from Meter where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Variant));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = SqlInt32.Null;
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from Meter where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
md.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Variant));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = DBNull.Value;
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from Meter where IntColumn is not @IntColumn";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlCeParameter("@IntColumn", SqlDbType.Variant));
cmd.Parameters["@IntColumn"].Value = DBNull.Value;
cmd.CommandText = "select count(*) from Meter where not IntColumn = @IntColumn";
Whenever I use a "is not" in the query I get an exception, otherwise it returns a count of 0 which is not accurate. Any help will be appreciated.

Is it possible by any kind of workaround to break the 8kb limit on user-defines datatypes?
My datatype can contain an arbitrary number of double-precision points meaning that I in best case only can store 512 points (2 x 8 x 512). there's a few extra bytes used for something else, but this is roughly the maximum, which is far from what I in many cases need. I serialize the object myself to ensure that I only store what I really need.

Hi, I have a report that is frustrating me. I've built this report, and it is not yet used in production. What it does is page break in places that I don't understand.
The FIRST area it would break after a line that had wrapped text to the line below. Even though there was plenty of room to fit it, and the entire rest of the group on the page.
The second area I honestly have NO idea why it breaks.

I want to show a third-level overview of how many to-do items are in various statuses (pending declined and completed) for the third level individuals.
In this example there's 2 regional leaders (level3), each with local leaders (level2) and individual team members (level1)
Status "1" is a new or pending to-do item
Status "2" is a declined item
Status "3" is a completed item
Here's what I want the output to look like (I may need to add columns for the final report but it should look as follows):
LEVEL3 | Status 1 | Status 1 | Status 2 | Status 3 |
LEADER | TOTAL | 2012 | TOTAL | TOTAL |
-------|----------|----------|----------|----------|
paul | 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
roger | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
Here's some sample data similar to my live DB:
CREATE TABLE #items (id int, datestamp datetime, userid int, status int)
INSERT INTO #items (id,datestamp,userid,status) VALUES (1,'12/26/2011',1,1)
INSERT INTO #items (id,datestamp,userid,status) VALUES (2,'12/26/2011',2,1)
INSERT INTO #items (id,datestamp,userid,status) VALUES (3,'1/2/2012',4,1)
INSERT INTO #items (id,datestamp,userid,status) VALUES (4,'1/3/2012',1,2)
[Code] ....
I have a view called hierarchy that shows me the hierarchy for each level 1 user. Here's the source for the view:
SELECT
a.id 'level1',
b.id 'level2',
c.id 'level3'
FROM #users a
INNER JOIN #users b ON a.reportsto = b.id
INNER JOIN #users c ON b.reportsto = c.id
I've run into table/view limits when using a straight query and timeouts when trying to create a cursor that looks through all level3 users and populates a temporary table with an INSERT and multiple UPDATE statements to get the individual counts for each column for each user.
(Just a note on the actual database in case it's relevant: It has about 1000 LEVEL1 users, 50 Level2, and 15 Level 3 users. It will generate about 1400 to-do items per week.)

Hi all,
I'm having a problem and I cannot seem to find how to fix this anywhere on the web.
I have a stacked bar chart with my data labels showing down the x axis. My client wants me to put a bit of white space between the label and the actual chart. So I tried adding spaces to my data label but of course RS thinks they don't exist since they are not non breaking spaces.
How can I do the following in my chart label
=Fields!Myfield.Value & " "
As you can see I want to add a couple of spaces to my data label. I can't use , all the ampersands get confused. I tried & char(32) but RS doesn't like char(n). I tried ChrW(160) [I saw this in the web somewhere] but this didn't work either.
Is there anything I can do?
thanks in advance, I'm at my wits end (again)
