I get a 'Specified cast is invalid' error message when I use the following query statement which has a COUNT verb in it.
SELECT DATAFIELD COUNT(DATAFIELD) AS 'Count' FROM EETABLE BY DATAFIELD
I only get this error when running the query in my C# program which is using SQL SERVER 2005 under VISTA. If I manually submit a query in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio I receive no error. Also, I get no error if I run this program on an XP computer using SQL SERVER 2000. So where do I look for the source of the problem. Any help is appreciated.

No matter how I try to enter an automatic query parameter it just isn't recognized as such. I get missing expression errors from the SQL syntax check and no report variables are generated. There must be something incredibly simple that I am missing....
The most recent query string I've entered is
SELECT DISTINCT WRTE_ROUTE FROM WSMGR.WIPRTE WHERE WRTE_RT_GRP_1 = 'RULE_BASED' AND WRTE_FACILITY = @Facility
The following query returns a value of 0 for the unit percent when I do a count/subquery count. Is there a way to get the percent count using a subquery? Another section of the query using the sum() works.
Here is a test code snippet:
--Test Count/Count subquery
declare @Date datetime
set @date = '8/15/2007'
select -- count returns unit data Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) as PTCnt, -- count returns total for all units
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date) as TotalCnt, -- attempting to calculate the percent by PTCnt/TotalCnt returns 0 (Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) /
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date)) as AUPct -- main select
from tblVGD1_Master m
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v on m.SlotNum_ID = v.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m.Denom_ID <> 9
and v.Act = 1 and m.Active = 1 and v.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v.MnyPlyd = v.MnyWon and v.ActWin = 0)
and v.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date
However, as you can see, the original select query is run twice and joined together.What I was hoping for is this to be done in the original query without the need to duplicate the original query.

I have a pretty simple query: Select title, avg(score) from votes group by title order by avg(score) Desc This returns a result like this: Abbey Road 4.0The White Album 3.5Meet the Beatles 3.0 The values in the score field are always 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 What I really need from my query is 5 more columns (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) with a count of how many votes each of those columns received. So the result set might be like this. Abbey Road 4.0 0 0 1 1 1 The White Album 3.5 0 1 0 0 1Meet the Beatles 3.0 2 2 2 2 2 I have tried to use the count function, but it counts all the values in the field. I can't figure out how to just count the values that match a certain criteria. When I tried to create subqueries, I got an error that said my subqueries where returning a multiple result sets. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Chris

I have a table that is grouped by a date. Some records have the same date. I am just trying to return the total row count of the query.
Here is the sql:
SELECT ActiveWeek FROM wcWARS WHERE CreatedBy = 9034 AND FlagComplete = 1 GROUP BY ActiveWeek
I just want to return the total grouped column.... I thought Oracle had a ROWCOUNT function that returned the total rows of the query. I was unable to find one for SQL Server.
**Note: I already tried @@ROWCOUNT ~ This returns the total rows of the table.
Hello All, I have two tables A and B. A and B have column x in common. The relationship between A and B is one to many.

What I want, is to get the count of students that have holds, and the count of students that do not have a hold. From the data above, the students that do not have a hold have a NULL value on sprhold column. Also from this data, you can see that some students have multiple holds, but they should be counted as only once when the Count is performed. The desired result would look like the following:
I need to create a drill down report with counts at each level, I cant use matrix, i need to implement this using SQL query..The format looks like below

I am using MS SQL Server 2000. I am reading right off of microsofts web site under Trasact-SQL Reference, on how to use the MIN function. Yet when I try to use it, I get the error:
'min' is not a recognized function name
Here is the sql statement copied right out of Query Analyzer:
select name, count(name), min( case when not(var6 = '') then 7 else case when not(var5 ='') then 6 else case when not(var4 ='') then 5 else case when not(var3 ='') then 4 else case when not(var2 ='') then 3 else case when not(var1 ='') then 2 else 1 end end end end end end as cols ) from syitabs where dupef=0 group by name

Just installed SQL Server 2005 Express along with the Management Studio. The Management Studio, at least what I've seen so far, seems to work fine. But when I type "sqlcmd" at the command prompt, I get "sqlcmd is not a recognized internal or external command, operable program or batch file." What gives???

ok, so i have this table "SOLD_PRODUCTS" with this columns: idProduct (int), quantitySold (int)
so i want to know how many products i have sold.
i have this query
Code:
SELECT idProduct, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS GROUP BY idProduct
and get this 74 5 75 2 79 1 etc etc etc
this works correctly, but it doesnt counts the quantity sold, so i changed the query to
Code:
SELECT idProduct, quantitySold, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS GROUP BY idProduct
but it crashes, mssql says i must add quantitySold to the group by clause.
but if i put the query
Code:
SELECT idProduct, quantitySold, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS GROUP BY idProduct,quantitySold
i dont get the expected data, the idProducts appear more than once, they are no longer grouped by, the results in the count(idProduct) are wrong (i am not sure what they are counting now)
so now i dont understand how i can make my query, all i want is a query where in one collumn i have the product id, and in the other the quantity sold (that would be the count of all the product ids found multiplied by the quantity sold)
so now i am completelly lost, now i dont know what to do with my query.
