I have two tables in MS SQL 2000 that I need to combine into one. they will share 3 columns and the rest will stay the same. the existing tables are very large and I REALLY don't want to plug in all the data by hand...Any nifty tricks??? I found software but dont want to spend $$ on it.
Here is my dilemma, i'm trying to combine the results of two different tables. Both tables are very similar but the data returned must be sorted before they are combined because I'm only returning the top xx records based on a hits column.
I have tried the following union query which combines the two RS's then sorts the data: SELECT Top 2 ID, Song, Hits FROM Table1 UNION SELECT Top 2 ID, Song, Hits from Table2 Which would return the first two records from each then sort them like this: 2 - tb1SONG 2 - 1459 1 - tb2SONG 1 - 412 1 - tb1SONG 1 - 356 2 - tb2SONG 2 - 85
I would like to sort based on the hits column then combine the RS producing this: 3 - tb2SONG 3 - 2035 2 - tb1SONG 2 - 1459 4 - tb1SONG 4 - 965 5 - tb2SONG 5 - 745
Any ideas or solutions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Im trying to combine 2 unrelated tables to create a new table with all the data. Both tables have the same number of rows. if i have 2 tables with 1 column each and 5 rows in each column, eg.
tb1 c1: 1 2 3 4 5
tb2 c2: a b c d e
if i run the query
SELECT tb1.[c1], tb2.[c2] INTO tb3 FROM tb1, tb2
i get tb3: c1: c2: 1 a 1 b 1 c 1 d 1 e 2 a 2 b 2 c ........
I'm wanting to migrate an existing customer's database into a new products db. The previous contractor used seperate tables for each product type, where I chose to use one "products" table.
My challenge has been that the previous db uses attributes that aren't common across all products. Would it be best to do a products_attribute table? If so, how would I query the previous products db and seperate the information during an insert between "product A" and "product A attributes"?
I am new to SQL Server development, but I use the automated features in Enterprise Manager a lot.
I have a table with a specific format already existing in a SQL Server 2000 database. This is generated once a day from a flat file received from an outside vendor. I am now receiving a similar flat file from another vendor which is nearly identical, but with two differences.
First, the new flat file is missing two columns (not critical data).
Next, there is one column that is out of order in comparison to the other flat file (aside from the 2 missing columns).
I need a generic example of how to remove specific records from a table and add these new ones (from the new flat file) through the SQL Server. My intention is to have a job run at a specific time through the SQL Server.
Any help is appreciated. If you know of a good tutorial or something out there, I would be more than happy to check it out. Thank you so much for your help!
If i have to get the statuses from four different tables but want to get first table disabled , second table active and also have statuses field from the 3rd and 4th table how would i do that?
ALM, PV, AD, ACE
select * from all tbls where alm.id = pv.id and alm status = 'disabled' and pv status = 'active'
I want to include the status field from 3rd and 4th table.
I have 2 tables. first table contains name and age and the second table contains class and roll num. I have a 3rd table which contains all these 4 columns. Now I want to fill the 3rd table with the 1st and 2nd table's data.
How to write a sql to combine the 4 tables into one without repetitive records? The 4 tables have exactly the same fields.
The tables do not have primary key. The fields to identiry the rows is name and dob. In the case the name and dob is same for two records, the one with latest date_created is selected.

I need a query to publish the front page of a blog. Each blog post needs to show BlogTitle, BlogText, PublishDate, PublishBy, Primary Image and number of comments. I would like to be able to do this in one sql statement, if possible.
The table structure is below, you can assume the first image returned from the image table is the primary image.
I have a query currently that looks like this . @Month and @Year are supplied as parameters
SELECT -- select the sum for each year/month combination using a correlated subquery (each result from the main query causes another data retrieval operation to be run) (SELECT SUM(SalesofProductA) FROM #ABC WHERE [Year]=T.[Year] AND [Month]=T.[Month]) AS [Sum_SalesofProductA]
[Code] ...
Right now I see an output like this : for a particular value of @Month and @Year
SalesofProductA, SalesofProductB, SalesofProductC What I would like to see is :
I am TRYING to write code to combine two tables and then return the maximum value of one table, but SQL Server keeps telling me that the column is not valid.... I have added attached screenshots to show that it IS a valid column, so I cannot figure out what is the retarded issue!!
I have 2 SQL server 2000 machines, I need to take a table from each one and combine them together based on a date time stamp. The first machine has a database that records information based on an event it is given a timestamp the value of variable is stored and a few other fields are stored in Table A. The second machine Table B has test data entered in a lab scenario. This is a manufacturing facility so the Table A data is recorded by means of a third party software. Whenever a sample is taken in the plant the event for Table A is triggered and recorded in the table. The test data may be entered on that sample in Table B several hours later the lab technician records the time that the sample was taken in Table B but it is not exact to match with the timestamp in Table A. I need to combine each of these tables into a new SQL server 2005 database on a new machine. After combining the tables which I am assuming I can based on a query that looks at the timestamp on both Tables A & B and match the rows up based on the closest timestamp. I need to continuously update these tables with the new data as it comes in. I havent worked with SQL for a couple of years and have looked at several ways to complete this task but havent had much luck. I have researched linked servers, SSIS, etc Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can use the IN with the WHERE clause as example:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME IN ('FULLER','KING')I want to use the IN and LIKE at the same time:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME LIKE ('A%','B%')I know this is a simplistic example, but the members for the IN will bemany, 5 to 10.I'm trying to avoid:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME LIKE 'A%' OR LASTNAME LIKE 'B%'OR LASTNAME LIKE 'FU%' OR LASTNAME LIKE 'JON%' <...>and so forth.Any Ideas?TIARob
I have a table with multiple rows with the same ID. a) How do I combine all columns into one row with the same ID? b) Is this better to do the combine in the store procedure/trigger or a sub that involked by some sort of datarepeater, datagrid controls? Since I am trying to brush up my sql. I appreciate any examples on top of conceptual solution.
Combine 3 Databases, Not tables. Let me spell this out -- I have 3 databases (they are in isolation when in use, its a field app) that need to be merged into 1 "masterDB" database. I've discovered I can use something like this to get to each DB in a query... 1 USE [database1]2 SELECT table1.Name, table1.Location, table1.Date, table2.Blog3 FROM table2 INNER JOIN4 table1 ON table2.ID = table1.ID5 ORDER BY table1.Date and then just repeat for database2 and database3. Ok, fine, rah rah. My question is how do I "merge" all of these into 1. No data on each db will be identical, at all, ever so that is not a concern. I just need all the data from db1, 2 and 3 into masterDB. Ideas? Direction?
Hello, I have these variables on my page: userid = "10101" RequestHost = "example.com" What would be the best way performace wise to first check if the userid 10101 exists in my sql server db. If it does exist I would then need to check if "example.com" exists for the userid in the userdomains table. If these both exist I would then like to query some additional data. I was hoping its possible to combine this into one query somehow. I dont think this is the best solution: sqlcommand.CommandText = "SELECT UserId From Users Where UserID = '10101'" Conn.Open() dr = sqlcommand.ExecuteReader if dr.hasrows then sqlcommand2.CommandText = "SELECT UserDomain From UserDomains Where UserID = 'example.com'" dr2 = sqlcommand2.ExecuteReader if dr2.hasrows then sqlcommand3.CommandText = 'Select Additional Data dr3 = sqlcommand3.ExecuteReader 'read values conn.close else conn.close 'do something end if else conn.close 'do something end if Thanks Very Much!
I have an stored procedure that returns 3 columns. Month, Date, and Total Number of Calls.
