Case Statement Within A Select Where 2 Or More Instances Of The Record Exist.
Jul 23, 2005
Ok,
I have a data warehouse that I am pulling records from using Oracle
SQL. I have a select statement that looks like the one below. Now what
I need to do is where the astrics are **** create a case statement or
whatever it is in Oracle to say that for this record if a 1/19/2005
record exists then End_Date needs to be=1/19/2005 else get
End_Date=12/31/9999. Keep in mind that a record could have both a
1/19/2005 and 12/31/9999 instance of that account record. If 1/19
exists that takes presedent if it doesnt then 12/31/9999. The problem
is that the fields I pull from the table where the end_date is in
question change based on which date I pull(12/31/9999 being the most
recient which in some cases as you see I dont want.) so they are not
identical. This is tricky.
Please let me know if you can help.

The Orders table contains orders placed on all the dates. I want to obtain a list of orders for a particular date, if there is no order for a product on the requested date, I want to return null values for the Quantity and Price fields.

Where, there are a total of three products (A,B,C) in table Products. Product-C has no order on 10/16/2004, but I want it to return :

Hi everyone, I have the following problem withj this query:
SELECT DocNumber, Title,FirstName,LastName,Paper, ANNO,Location,Keywords, URL= case WHEN URL IS NULL THEN '|<a href=''https://illiad.library.nova.edu/illiad/FNN/illiad.dll?ILLiadRedirect=OpenURL&genre=thesis&isbn='+CONVERT(varchar,DocNumber)+'&title='+CONVERT(varchar,Title)+'&rft.pub='+CONVERT(varchar,Program)+'&rft.edition='+ CONVERT(varchar,Paper) +'&date='+ CONVERT(varchar,ANNO)+ '&aulast=' + CONVERT(varchar,Lastname) + '&aufirst=' + CONVERT(varchar,Firstname)+ '&url_ver=Z39.88-2004&rfr_id=info:sid/MARPS:Practicum''target=''blank'')> Order through ILLiad</a>' ELSE URL END FROM DocTable1 WHERE FREETEXT....

Hey guys, i'm trying to use a CASE within a select but i'm not sure how to get started.
Here is my select so far, i'm inserting into a temp table that is used within a loop to gather data from my trigger:
Code:
insert into @temp_par select CONVERT(varchar(20),d.PAT_ID), ep.EXT_PAT_ID, d.DRUG_DESC_ID, d.ALLERGY_CD, CONVERT(varchar(20),d.PAR_DT,120), ISNULL(d.PAR_TXT, 'NULL'), ISNULL(REPLACE(m.DRUG_NM,'"','^"'),'NULL'), ISNULL(m.DOSAGE_FORM_CD,'NULL'), ISNULL(m.STRGTH,'NULL'), ISNULL(m.STRGTH_UM,'NULL') from deleted d --PATIENT_PRIOR_ADVERSE_REACTIONS join EXTERNAL_PATIENT ep on ep.PAT_ID = d.PAT_ID join MEDNAME m on m.DRUG_DESC_ID = d.DRUG_DESC_ID
I would like to use a CASE for the d.ALLERGY_CD column. The data in this column is usually a 1,2,3,4,5 but i'd like to convert those to their real data, for example:
Limitations: Needs to be single sql statement for exec, no udf/stored proc Objective: select aggregate count from tblPerson grouped by s_fk, division,Desc, areaDesc with rollup for totals if mail_goes_to=1, get the s_fk value via tblPerson/tblAffiliation/tblOrg/tblCity/tblCounty if mail_goes_to=2, get the s_fk value via tblPerson/tblCity/tblCounty, skipping tblAffiliation/tblOrg
What's the best method? A case statement? Would a cross-join work? Thanks so much for any and all advice!

Hi,I am wondering how do I write a query that will take case sensitive into consideration. For example, I have "ABCD", "abcD", ABcd", "AbCd" in a table. I want to retrieve "AbCd" only from the table. This is the sql statement that I have:sqlSelect = "SELECT * FROM [al_table] WHERE [alphabet]= @alpha"Dim selectCmd As New SqlCommand(sqlSelect, myConnection) selectCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@alpha", "AbCd") From what I have it will return all those value. But that is not what I want. Thanks

I need a hand in this script. SELECT a.id ,value = CASE when (x1-x0) = 0 then ((Y2-Y0)-(Y1-Y0))/(0.000000001*(X2-X0)) ELSE ((-111.48277-Y0)-(Y1-Y0))/((X1-X0)*(32.72383-X0)) END ,value2 = CASE when (x1-x0) = 0 then ((Y2-Y0)-(Y1-Y0))/(0.000000001*(X2-X0)) ELSE ((-111.48277-Y0)-(Y1-Y0))/((X1-X0)*(32.72383-X0)) END FROM table_name a where value > 0 ORDER BY VALUE
The problem I'm having is in the where clause. Because the value is not a column name sql server is giving me an error. I need to evaluate the value returned. How can I get around this problem? Any sort of advise will help! Thank you in advance!
I am using a CASE statement within a SELECT query to sum up values for different customers.
SELECT CR_CUST.Customer_Code, 'General_01' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '01' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END, 'General_07' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '07' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END, 'General_08' = CASE WHEN CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = '08' THEN SUM(CR_INVOICE.Line_Value) ELSE 0 END FROM CR_CUST INNER JOIN CR_INVOICE ON CR_CUST.Customer_Code = CR_INVOICE.Customer_Code INNER JOIN CR_PROD ON CR_INVOICE.Product_Code = CR_PROD.Product_Code WHERE (CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 1 OR CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 7 OR CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code = 8) GROUP BY CR_CUST.Customer_Code, CR_PROD.Part_Class_Code
My question is this - is it possible to expand my SQL Query into a Sub Query so that each customers data appears on the same line of the results?, like so...
I can achieve this by writing my results into a temporary table and extracting the data with the following SQL Query, but I just thought it would be really cool if I could do it in one SQL Statement without using a temporary table.
SELECT Customer_Code, SUM(General_01), SUM(General_07), SUM(General_08) FROM #MyTempTable GROUP BY Customer_Code
Update ed_abcdeeh set category = case when name_of_school = '' then category = 'No Facility' else '' end,status = case when name_of_school = '' then status = 'Non-Compliant' else 'Compliant' end.
How to make this query right.. when name of school is blank i want to update my category to No facility, but if the name of school has data it will just make it blank. same to the status..
Hello everybody I have problem with CASE statement. Here is select it
Code Block select mev.Id ,mev.MetaElementId ,mev.ElementValue ,mev.DocumentId ,me.ElementTypeId ,castedValue = case when me.ElementTypeId =3 then cast(mev.ElementValue as integer) when me.ElementTypeId =4 then cast(mev.ElementValue as datetime) end from dbo.tbMetaElementValue mev inner join dbo.tbMetaElement me on mev.MetaElementId = me.Id where mev.MetaElementId =7
it returns
Id MetaElementId ElementValue DocumentId ElementTypeId castedValue
49 7 2006 28 3 6/30/1905 0:00
53 7 2004 30 3 6/28/1905 0:00
61 7 2006 36 3 6/30/1905 0:00
67 7 2005 38 3 6/29/1905 0:00
70 7 2004 39 3 6/28/1905 0:00
105 7 2003 63 3 6/27/1905 0:00
166 7 2006 109 3 6/30/1905 0:00
195 7 2005 129 3 6/29/1905 0:00

223 7 2006 151 3 6/30/1905 0:00
As you can see it should return castedValue as integer but it cast to datetime which is wrong. If I commented line
Code Block when me.ElementTypeId =4 then cast(mev.ElementValue as datetime)
it casts everything normal, but as soon as it has more than one condition in CASE it will choose anything but not right casting
Looks like I am missing something really fundamental. Any help is apreciated !
Hi, I have created a login page (webform1) that enables me to enter my user number and password and if correct it re-directs to webform 2 where all data related to the usernumber that was entered in the login page, appears. Now I want to be able to set different re-direct pages dependant upon different users as some may require more privileges then others. As for my query I have 2 types of users: staff and managers. I want to set the login page so that if staff logins in it goes webform 3 and if manager logins in it goes webform 4. My table in the Sql database is called Users & the fields are: unumber(pk), pwd, userRole, forename, surname. I have been advised to use CASE statements, yet I do not know how to use them. Below have left my code of a simple login without the userRole validation. Please help!

I have 20 rows in dbo.test so i will get 20 as my output, now i need to write a case statement here such that when count(*) = 0 then it should display text filed 'NO Data' else it should display the count.
I need to perform an update where there are multiple scenarios which determine the value that is entered. Below is a sort've psuedo code of how it needs to be.
Update MyTable SET MyColumn = CASE WHEN MyCol1 = 'Value1' Then NewValue Else WHEN MyCol1 <> 'Value1' And MyCol2 = 'Active' Then 'Value1'
In the scenario where MyCol1 <> Value1 and MyCol2 <> 'Active' then no update would occur and the original value would remain intact.
I am selecting the count of the students in a class by suing select COUNT(studentid) as StCount FROM dbo.student But I need to use a case statement on this like if count is less than 10 I need to return 'Small class' if the count is between 10 to 50 then I need to return 'Medium class' and if the count is more than 50 then 'Big class'.
Right now I am achieving this by the following case statement
SELECT 'ClassSize' = CASE WHEN Stcount<10 THEN 'Small Class' WHEN Stcount>=10 and StCount<=50THEN 'Medium Class' WHEN Stcount>50 THEN 'Big Class' END FROM( select COUNT(studentid) as Stcount FROM dbo.student) Stdtbl
I am fairly new with SQL and still learning. I have used a case statemtent for a column in my select list and want to use the results of that statement's field in my WHERE clause but it is not working for me. Here is the code I have so far:
SELECT l.loanid, p.investorid, l.duedate, case when pc.duedate >= l.duedate then pc.duedate end as RateDueDate, pc.interestrate FROM loan l inner join participation p on p.loanid = l.loanid inner join paymentchange pc on pc.loanid = l.loanid where p.investorid = '12345' and RateDueDate is not null order by l.loanid, pc.duedate
I want to put the results of this case statment in my where clause like highlighted above but it is not working because RateDueDate is not an actual column in the table. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have scenario where i have to pick one particular value from where condition. Here is the example:A store can have different types i-e A or B , A and B or either A or B.
Store Type Sales 11 A 1000 23 A 1980 23 B 50 5 B 560
I want to filter the store in "where clause" where
1)- if the store has type A and B, then assign only A 2)- if the store has type A associated with it then assign A 3)- if the store has type B associated with it, then assign B.
Select Store, sum(sales), Type from table1 where (TYPE]= (case when [TYPE] in ('A','B') then 'A' when [TYPE]='A' then 'A' else 'B'end)) GROUP BY [store], [TYPE]
The above statement is not working for when store has only Type B associated with it.
I HAVE A SELECT STATEMENT WITH TEACHERS AND STUDENTS AND SOMETHING ELSE TOO. FOR EACH TEACHER I ONLY NEED ONE(FIRST ONE) STUDENT. HOW THE STATEMENT SHOULD BE?
anyone can help me? i using sp to select a select statement from a join table. due to the requirement, i need to group the data into monthly/weekly basic.
so i already collect the data for the month and use the case to make a new compute column in the selete statement call weekGroup. this is just a string showing "week 1", "week 2" .... "week 5".
so now i want to group the weekgroup and disply the average mark. so i need to insert all the record from the select statement into the temporary table and then use 2nd select statement to collect the new data in 5 record only. may i know how to make this posible?
Is that possible to restrict inserting the record if record already exist in the table.
Scenario: query should be
We are inserting a bulk information of data, it should not insert the row if it already exist in the table. excluding that it should insert the other rows.
I have an Address column that I need to Substring. I want to remove part of the string after either, or both of the following characters i.e ',' OR '*'
Example Record 1. Elland **REQUIRES BOOKING IN*** Example Record 2. Theale, Nr Reading, Berkshire Example Record 3. Stockport
How do I achieve this in a CASE Statement?
The following two case statements return the correct results, but I some how need to combine them into a single Statement?
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(',',Address) =0 THEN LEN(Address ) ELSE CHARINDEX(',' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test'
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('*',Address ) =0 THEN LEN(Address) ELSE CHARINDEX('*' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test2'
Hey gang, I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query') I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling. Here's my current Query this works fine: Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#') What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note. I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
