Changing Data Format On Select
Jul 20, 2005
Hey all,
I have a basic table that looks something like this.
CREATE TABLE MyTable
(
ID INT IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
Company_ID INT NOT NULL,
Round VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
Details VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL
)
It has a few rows of data that look like this:
Identity Company_ID Round Details
--------------------------------------------
1 5 A Blah, blah.
2 5 B Generic data, blah blah.
3 5 WERT More generic blah blah.
Now what i'm trying to do during my select statement is select all the rows
that belong to company_id 5 but if any of the rows round value contains the
text "WERT" convert that text into just a "--" for presentation purposes,
but still select that row. I can't seem to figure out how i would transform
the text in the select statement? My immediate thought was substring /
replace but i would need to combine it with an if else statement which i've
no idea how to make work in a select (sub-query maybe?) statement. Is this
possible? Perhaps i'm stuck iterating through the returned data within the
client application before presenting?
Any help, as always, would be greatly appreciated.

Hello all,
I am trying to modify the output of a SELECT statement in a VB asp.net page that pulls data from a SQL DB. I only need to modify one column in the gridview, but I'm having some issues.
Here is the situation:SELECT TOP 24 ID, RecID, Timestamp, Answered, Holds, Dropped, Waits, Voicemail, Busied, LiveWaitsFROM mTrafficORDER BY Timestamp DESC
The Timestamp column returns a number value (i.e. 564566).In terms of a date, 564566 doesn't mean anything to the user, so I need to convert this number into a recognizable and accurate date.
The formula I need to implement is Timestamp/1440 - 1
The following SELECT statement returns the number as a date, but makes all records the same date:
SELECT TOP 24 ID, RecID, Convert(datetime, Timestamp/1440 + 1) as Timestamp, Answered, Holds, Dropped, Waits, Voicemail, Busied, LiveWaitsFROM mTrafficORDER BY Timestamp DESC
What do I need to do to implement this function dynamically into my gridview?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
Its probably easier to draw this problem than describe it, so here goes:
I have a sales forecast table (A,B,C are products [PRODUCT], the dates refer to the month for which the forecast is [FORECAST_DATE], and the integer is the forecast sales qty [FORECAST_QTY])
A 01/03/2004 30
B 01/03/2004 28
C 01/03/2004 24
A 01/04/2004 11
B 01/04/2004 09
C 01/04/2004 41
I need to convert the table into a more sensible format, like this:
(NB ...Dots are just there to help with formatting - basically I'm talking about a field for FORECAST_03_2004, FORECAST_04_2004 etc etc)
........ 01/03/2004....01/04/2004
A..........30..................11
B..........28..................09
C..........24..................41
I'm really no t-SQL guru, and I can't seem to get any joy out of BOL. It must only be a tiny bit of code. Can anyone help?
Thanks very much
Sam

Howdy,
I live in Australia and use the date format of - dd/mm/yyy, but when i do a query in SQL Management it seems to want its inputs in US format mm/dd/yyy.
For example it errors when i do a search and one of the dates is 27/11/2007, ie there is no 27th "US" Month.
I have checked my local settings (regional and language in control panel), and it all points to Australian formats, it just seems the SMS wants the dates in US.
Any Ideas?

SQL 2k w2k server sp2
When I first installed the SQL server on my server, the default date
format was mm/dd/yy. Now I need to change that to dd/mm/yy in
regional settings, but its still not reflected in the DB's in SQL (its
still mm/dd/yy).
Is it possible to change it in SQL without a complete reinstallation
of the server?

Hi,
I have a dts package which is reading from a sql table and writing it to an excel file, its working fine except that I have a decimal field in the sql table but in excel file its writing it as string field.
The way I create this package is that I create a template file and I format that column to a "Number" format. Then I take this template file, rename it, export all the data to this file.
But when I open this file that decimal field is displayed as a string column and its left aligned.
Is there any way to fix this problem?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have to generate a daily report of survey answers by users? My question is there a way to reformat the query so it generates a table or report with it showing the rows as columns instead.
Here is my initial query.
SELECT
dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.DateCreated AS DateCreated
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.questionid AS QuestionID
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.surveyid AS SurveyID
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber AS OrderNumber
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.userid AS UserID
,dbo.Reporting_User.LastName1 AS LastName
,dbo.Reporting_User.FirstName AS FirstName
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionText AS QuestionText
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.QuestionAnswer AS QuestionAnswer
FROM
dbo.Reporting_Surveys
INNER JOIN dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions
ON dbo.Reporting_Surveys.surveyid = dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.surveyid
INNER JOIN dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers
ON dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionID = dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.QuestionID
INNER JOIN dbo.uvwReporting_User
ON dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.userid = dbo.uvReporting_User.userid
WHERE
dbo.uvReporting_SurveyAnswers.surveyid = 1125
Order by dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.DateCreated
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber
Select
dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber AS OrderNumber
, dbo dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionText AS QuestionText
To complicate matters, some of the users did not answer some of the questions and some of the questions are duplicated in the rows because the database assigned them one answer each.
Example. Question 18 says "Name all the industries you have worked in. Check all that apply.
What happens is lets say the user checks 4 different boxes. In the query results, it will show 4 rows with question 18 with each answer they checked off.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Is it possible to change the format of the identity column? i.e. I have and integer value that will be the ID for the records to follow in the database. Instead of the values being 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 etc I want them still to be in sequence but I want the format to be 001,002,003,004,005,006,007,008,009 etc.
Is it possible to do that in SQL when you're creating the table?

I have a table: it contains a list of data belonging to a name, however the field 'name' defines the source.
name |field1 |field1data |
test1 |in |123
test1 |out |345
test2 |in |123
test2 |out |456
test3 |in |123
test3 |out |456
I'm trying to get the data out of the database in a columed format, I would be quite comfortable doing this if 'in' and 'out' where there own field. The output i'm trying to get is:
name |data |data |
test1 |123 |456
test2 |123 |456
test3 |123 |456
in an ideal world i'd like to be able to have the header the name of the field data - eg
name |in |out |
test1 |123 |456
test2 |123 |456
test3 |123 |456
I can use - select name,field1data from table where field1 in ("in","out")but this returns each piece of data as a new row - eg:
name |field1data |
test1 |123
test1 |456
test2 |123
test2 |456
test3 |123
test3 |456

I cant seen to change the Select command for a SQL Datasourcetry #1 SqlDataSourceProfilesThatMatch.SelectCommand = strSQLForSearch SqlDataSourceProfilesThatMatch.SelectParameters("ProfileID").DefaultValue = pProfileID SqlDataSourceProfilesThatMatch.SelectParameters("LoggedInUsersZipcode").DefaultValue = pUsersZipCode SqlDataSourceProfilesThatMatch.SelectParameters("ZipDistance").DefaultValue = pDistance
NewProfilesThatMatchGridView.DataBind()

No errors but no rows show in the gridview. If I debug and get the value strSQLForSearch and paste it into a new SQL query window I get results.
Any ideas????

the cursor at the bottom iterates only to print the number of rows.The problem is in the select. This takes 30 seconds to iterate through 1242 records.But if I add a TOP 1000000 or whatever number to the select, the same iteration takes less than a 1 second.I've tested each query without cursor, and both have the same cost and performance. (Not exactly the same plan)Note that I got the same performance improvement declaring the cursor as STATIC.Why the top is affecting the cursor iteration so much?
Declare @query varchar(512)
DECLARE Itera CURSOR --LOCAL STATIC READ_ONLY FORWARD_ONLY
FOR
select --TOP 1000000

I have a fairly simple data flow task that loads data from one table (OLE DB Source) into another table (OLE DB Destination). The data type for one of the pairs of columns is nVarChar(120) and it contains version information that looks like a decimal. When I run the export, the destination has a trailing zero added after the decimal point as if it were a numeric column which invalidates our comparisons (string 1.0 is not the same as string 1.00). There is no cast or convert done to this column, it is a straight copy. Any ideas what could be causing this or how to fix?

I have created a SSIS package that transfer data from a Foxpro database to an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. I used the wizard to create the package but I load and execute the package within a custom application that I have written in C#.
The way the custom application is intended to work is that the user can have the database in any location on the computer and all he has to do is specify the location then the application programatically changes the location of the source on the package that it has loaded and then execute it. When I initially run the package the first time (using the original path), it works fine and transfers the data. However, every subsequent time I run the application and specify a different path, the database on the SQL Server side gets created as expected but the data is not transfered!
Where am I going wrong? Do I need to save the package after I modify the source then reload and run it again or do i need to change something else in the Data Flow to make this work?
