Comma Delimited List Of IDs To A Recordset From 2 Tables...
Jan 20, 2006
Have 2 tables in SQL Server 05 DB:
First one is MyList
user_id -> unique value
list -> comma-delimited list of user_ids
notes -> random varchar data
Second one is MyProfile
user_id -> unique value
name
address
email
phone
I need a stored proc to return rows from MyProfile that match the comma-delimited contents in the "list" column of MyList, based on the user_id matched in MyList. The stored proc should receive as input a @user_id for MyList then return all this data.
The format of the comma-delimited data is as such (all values are 10-digit alphanumerics):
d25ef46bp3,s46ji25tn9,p53fy76nc9
The data returned should be all the columns of MyProfile, and the columns of MyList (which will obviously be duplicated for each row returned).
PROCEDURE ListFilteredEvents @FilterList varchar(200) -- contains ‘3,5’ AS SELECT EventID FROM Events WHERE (any value in Categories) IN @FilterList
Result:
EventID ---------- 2
How can I select all records where any value in the Categories column matches a value in @FilterList. In this example, record 2 would be selected since it belongs to category 3, which is also in @FilterList.
I’ve looked at the table of numbers approach, which works when selecting records where a column value is in the parameter list, but I can’t see how to make this work when the column itself also contains a comma delimited list.
I have a complex query where each row in the final dataset is a product. However each product has a number of authors associated with it. What I would like to do is have a query/subroutine join the authors to the product, as a string:
ProductID Title Authors 1 The Sacred and the Profane John Rieggle, George Alexi 2 Dancing in the Dark Dan Brown, Peter Kay, Paul Dwebinski
Hello any MS SQL experts out there! please help if you can. i'm trying to run a subquery within a query to keep myself from having to loop over the original query on display and then run additional queries to get the further info. here's the setup. i have two tables:
persons table column: name (varchar) column: vehicleids (varchar)
vehicles table column: id (int pk) column: vehiclename (varchar)
- The persons table is a list of peoples' names and what kind of vehicle/s they own. - The persons.vehicleids field is a comma-delimited list of one or more integers which correspond to the vehicles.id field. - The vehicles table contains a list of vehicles like car, bicycle, motorcycle, etc, distinguished by the vehicles.id field.
The result i want returned by the query is:
NAME - VEHICLES Joe Somebody - car,bicycle Sheila Johnson - van,pogostick,motorcycle John Nobody - skateboard,car
The query i'm trying to run to get this result is:
Code Snippet
SELECT pe.name, ( SELECT ve.vehiclename FROM vehicles ve WHERE CAST(ve.id AS VARCHAR) IN (pe.vehicleids) ) AS vehicles FROM persons pe ORDER BY pe.name
It returns the persons names in the first column, but only returns vehicle names in the second column when there's a single id in the persons.vehicleids field. if there's more than one integer in the field, it returns an empty string.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I do have the option of table restructuring if its necessary, but I'm not looking for a stored procedure solution or a temp table solution. Any takers? I would be in the kharmic debt of anyone providing a workable avenue.
I am trying to pass a comma delimited llist of names to a stored procedure. I am getting a syntax error and I can't seem to figure out why. When i plug the names by hand into my select statement in query analyzer it all works fine. Just a little background so i don't have to put all the code in... the list of name is built dynamically. Below are all the code snippets. Thanks for your help in advance. The is the list of names and the call to the stored procedure:
SELECT ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME, ww.LAST_NAME + ', ' + ww.FIRST_NAME as employeeName, ww1.DIVISION + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER_DESC as department FROM WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_PEOPLE_V ww LEFT JOIN WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_DEPARTMENTS_V ww1 ON ww.DEPARTMENT_ID = ww1.ORG_ID WHERE ww.SEARCHABLE = 1 AND ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IS NOT NULL AND ww.PERSON_TYPE = 'Employee' AND (ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IN (@EMPLOYEE_LIST) OR ww.DEPARTMENT_ID IN (SELECT ud.department_id FROM USER_DEPARTMENT ud WHERE ud.nt_id = @CURRENT_USER)) ORDER BY ww.LAST_NAME, ww.FIRST_NAME
I have a stored procedure that I want to use to update multiple records. I'm using ASP and the request form collection is returning values in a comma delimited list. Example: name1 = value1, value2, value3, etc. name2 = value1, value2, value3, etc. name3 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
The second update is where the comma delimited list needs to be handled. The first update is only updating one field once.
Is there a way to write the procedure to handle the comma delimited list? Or, is the way I have the stored procedure okay and I just need to handle the comma delimited list within the ASP code? I'm not sure which way I can accomplish this?
Hi, all:I have a form which lets users choose more than one value for each question.But how do I insert each value as a separate row in my table (instead ofhaving the values submitted as a comma-delimited list)?Thanks for your help.J
As part of xml parsing, I use multicast to direct output of nodes to their corresponding relational tables and I do have a comma-delimited list for some nodes which basically needs to be converted into rows as illustrated below
I need some help with a stored procedure to insert multiple rows into a join table from a checkboxlist on a form. The database structure has 3 tables - Products, Files, and ProductFiles(join). From a asp.net formview users are able to upload files to the server. The formview has a products checkboxlist where the user selects all products a file they are uploading applies too. I parse the selected values of the checkboxlist into a comma delimited list that is then passed with other parameters to the stored proc. If only one value is selected in the checkboxlist then the spproc executed correctly. Also, if i run sql profiler i can confirm that the that asp.net is passing the correct information to the sproc: exec proc_Add_Product_Files @FileName = N'This is just a test.doc', @FileDescription = N'test', @FileSize = 24064, @LanguageID = NULL, @DocumentCategoryID = 1, @ComplianceID = NULL, @SubmittedBy = N'Kevin McPhail', @SubmittedDate = 'Jan 18 2006 12:00:00:000AM', @ProductID = N'10,11,8' Here is the stored proc it is based on an article posted in another newsgroup on handling lists in a stored proc. Obviously there was something in the article i did not understand correctly or the author left something out that most people probably already know (I am fairly new to stored procs) CREATE PROCEDURE proc_Add_Product_Files_v2/*Declare variables for the stored procedure. ProductID is a varchar because it will receive a comma,delimited list of values from the webform and then insert a rowinto productfiles for each product that the file being uploaded pertains to. */@FileName varchar(150),@FileDescription varchar(150),@FileSize int,@LanguageID int,@DocumentCategoryID int,@ComplianceID int,@SubmittedBy varchar(50),@SubmittedDate datetime,@ProductID varchar(150) ASBEGIN DECLARE @FileID INT SET NOCOUNT ON /*Insert into the files table and retrieve the primary key of the new record using @@identity*/ INSERT INTO Files (FileName, FileDescription, FileSize, LanguageID, DocumentCategoryID, ComplianceID, SubmittedBy, SubmittedDate) Values (@FileName, @FileDescription, @FileSize, @LanguageID, @DocumentCategoryID, @ComplianceID, @SubmittedBy, @SubmittedDate) Select @FileID=@@Identity /*Uses dynamic sql to insert the comma delimited list of productids into the productfiles table.*/ DECLARE @ProductFilesInsert varchar(2000) SET @ProductFilesInsert = 'INSERT INTO ProductFiles (FileID, ProductID) SELECT ' + CONVERT(varchar,@FileID) + ', Product1ID FROM Products WHERE Product1ID IN (' + @ProductID + ')' exec(@ProductFilesInsert) EndGO

Good evening! I have a problem. I have a namelist coming from a distribution list of an active directory. When I converted it to csv file, the members reside in just one column and separated by a comma. I want the names to be separated in a row one by one. I tried it on excel and I used the transpose column but to no avail. My last resort is to import it on sql but the names on the column was cut and not complete. Do you have any idea how to do this. Your help is highly appreciated.
Would like to have a view created to display the result at the bottom of this message. We will be using Dreamweaver to display the information from this view. Also, for the record, we are using sql 2000. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need to import comma delimited text files into sql tables. in one of the column, there is a comma in the string itself. e.g.
Cust_ID Name Phone Address1 Address2
Date that I have:
001,juia, anderson,4694568855,,Cedar Spring
The data does not have double quote as text qualifiers. but as you see, on the Name column, there is a comma, which is not a delimiter. can anybody give any suggestions on how i can deal with that? i would appreciate it so much.
Hi I'm pretty new to using Microsoft Visual C# .NET and I want to upload a comma delimited text file from my local machine into a table in an sql server database through a web app. How would I go about programming this and what controls do I need? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Is this possible? I find it hard to believe that this could be sooo difficult. I have a simple select stored procedure that has one parameter. My application is passing a comma delimited string of values to be used in the IN clause. Ex: Where x In(@parametername) the x column is an integer. How can one work around this??? Thanks!
I am trying to build a dynamic where statement for my sql stored prcoedure if len(@Office) > 0 select @strWhereClause = N'cvEh.chOfficeId in (select id from dbo.csfParseDeLimitedText( ' + @vchOffice + ',' + ''',''' + '))' + ' and ' + @strWhereClause In this case users can enter comma delimited string in their search criteria. So if they enter we1, we2, we3 then my sql statement should look like select @strWhereClause = cvEh.chOfficeId in (select id from dbo.csfParseDeLimitedText('we1', 'we2', 'we3'),',') My csfParseDeLimitedText function looks like this Create FUNCTION [dbo].[csfParseDeLimitedText] (@p_text varchar(4000), @p_Delimeter char(1))RETURNS @results TABLE (id varchar(100))ASBEGIN declare @i1 varchar(200)declare @i2 varchar(200)declare @tempResults Table (id varchar(100))while len(@p_text) > 0 and charindex(@p_Delimeter, @p_text) <> 0beginselect @i1 = left(@p_text, charindex(@p_Delimeter, @p_text) - 1)insert @tempResults select @i1select @p_text = right(@p_text, len(@p_text) - charindex(@p_Delimeter,@p_text))endinsert @tempResults select @p_text insert @resultsselect *from @tempResultsreturnEND
My problem is it does not put quotes around the comma delimited stringso I want to put 'we1' , 'we2'. These single quotes are not coming in the dynamic sql statement. How can I modify my query so that single quotes around each entry should show up. Any help will be greatky appreciated. Thanks
I have a row in a SQL table that has 4 numerical values, separated by comma. I'd like to take this and make it 4 separate columns. Values are not always the same length, but are always delimited by commas.
I posted this originally in the incorrect forum I believe so I am reposting this in here which I believe is the proper place.
I need to move essentially a flat file from one server to another one and export it into a database on the second server. Does anyone have an easy process to accomplish this? I am currently at a loss. Any advice would be much appreciated.
I'm trying to upload a small Web application with a one table database. The hosting company, GoDaddy requires that I upload the database as a comma delimited file. I created the database in Visual Web Developer Express but also have Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio Express. I can't figure out how to export the database into a comma delimited file using any of these tools. This should be simple like it is in Access but that doesn't seem to be the case. This is holding up deploying my Web Application.
I need to split a string, based on comma delimetrs, into columns of a table.
I am using SQL Server 2005. The plan is to use webmethods (Integration Software) to receive a flat file, loop through the records in that flat file and during each iteration of the loop call a SQL stored procedure that will split the record, based on comma delimetrs, into columns of a table.
A typical record will look like this: AP05-07,ACTUAL,ZA01,......
I have looked at some of the past solutions to this type of post, but am battling to understand....
So if its possible, is there a simple way to create a stored procedure that will do this?
Hi,On SQLServer 2000, I have a table with a following structure:MYTABLEcol1 char,col2 date,col3 numberMy Objective:------------Externally (from a command line), to select all columns and write theoutput into a file delimited by a comma.My method:---------1. Probably will use OSQL or BCP to do this.2. Use the following syntax:select RTRIM(col1) +','+ RTRIM(col2) +','+ RTRIM(col3)from MYTABLE;My 3 Problems:-------------1) If there is a NULL column, the result of concatenating any value withNULL, is NULL. How can I work around this? I still want to record thiscolumn as null. Something like say from the example above, if col2 isnull, would result to: APPLE,,52) The time format when querying the database is: 2003-06-24 15:10:20.However, on the file, the data becomes: 24 JUN 2003 3:10PM. How can Ipreserve the YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format? Notice that I also lost theSS.3) Which utility is better? BCP or OSQL?For OSQL, it has a "-s" flag which gives me the option of putting acolumn separator. But the result is:"APPLE ,14 JUN 2003 , 5"I don't need the extra space.While for BCP, there is no column separator flag.You will notice from my inquiry above that my background in SQLServer isnot very good.Thanks in Advance!!RegardsRicky*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
I have a table named People(#Code, Name, eMailList), where the column eMailList has a list of email addresses separated by commas, like "someone@hotmail.com,someone@gmail.com,someone@yahoo.com".
I would like that for each Person, extract the email address info in such a way that I can insert into the following table: EMail(#Code, #ID, Address), where Address has a single email address.
