Complex SELECT Statement Help
Aug 30, 2007
Hi All,
My sql is a little rusty, i ve been trying to do few things but still no luck. I m trying to query some data in one column based on certain . Here is my puzzle:
I have 7 tables: categories, characteristics, configs, rm_cat, rm_chars, rm_conf and rooms.
And here are the details on these tables:
- categories: {cat_id, cat_name}
- characteristics: {char_id, char}
- configs: {conf_id, conf}
- rm_cat: {room_id, cat_id}
- rm_chars: { room_id, char_id}
- rm_conf: {room_id, conf_id}
- room: {room_id. room_name}
I m trying to select a "room_name" based on a certain cat_id, char_id and conf_id and i don't know how to do this.
Sincerely,

There are 3 tables, VendorLists, Vendors, and Referrals.
VendorLists is a linking table. It has VendorListID, VendorID, and ListID fields.
Vendors is linked to VendorLists through the VendorID field (one to many)
Referrals is linked to VendorLists through VendorListID (one to many)
I'm given a value for ListID and have to pull records from both the Vendors and Referrals table (a referral is a description of a vendor, one to many).
I am able to do this with the following SQL select statement:
SELECT Referrals.Description, Vendors.Company
FROM Referrals CROSS JOIN Vendors
WHERE Referrals.VendorListID IN
(SELECT VendorListID FROM VendorLists WHERE (ListID = lid))
AND
(Vendors.VendorID IN (SELECT VendorID FROM VendorLists WHERE ListID = lid))
ORDER BY Vendors.VendorID
This pulls all the appropriate records and values that i need and orders them by the identifier for the vendor. However, I want to randomly order the vendors but still group them together by company, so, if the VendorID is 1 for "joe's crab shack" and 2 for "billy's ice cream shop", the above will always list joe's crab shack first and all it's referrals. i want to be able to randomly order the vendors, but still keep the referrals of those vendors grouped together so that when i iterate over them, they're grouped.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this? I'm stumped!!

I have a pretty complex SQL statement that looks like this:
SELECT aspnet_Employers.active, aspnet_Employers.accountexecutiveusername, aspnet_Employers.created, aspnet_Employers.Title AS Contact, SUM(aspnet_Employers.EmployeeCount) AS [# Emps], COUNT(aspnet_Signups.account) AS [# Email Addresses], COUNT(aspnet_ContactMe.username) AS [# Contact Me], COUNT(aspnet_AppsSubmitted.account) AS [# Apply Now]FROM aspnet_Employers LEFT OUTER JOIN aspnet_AppsSubmitted ON aspnet_Employers.UserName = aspnet_AppsSubmitted.account LEFT OUTER JOIN aspnet_ContactMe ON aspnet_Employers.UserName = aspnet_ContactMe.username LEFT OUTER JOIN aspnet_Signups ON aspnet_Employers.UserName = aspnet_Signups.accountGROUP BY aspnet_Employers.accountexecutiveusername, aspnet_Employers.created, aspnet_Employers.Title, aspnet_Employers.active
It does work the way i want it, but the problem is, on my Gridview when i change the Employers accounts "Active" status either way, it changes the username field from the username of the account, to "null".
Why does it do this?
What would i change to prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

I may not be seeing the forest through the trees here but here goes. I've got a table of computer configurations with columns for cpu, ram, m/b, hdd, etc. The values in those columns are related to the id field in another table named parts. The parts table has columns, id, partnumber, description, and cost. What I want to do is be able to pull a record from the computer configurations table and instead of getting the integers in the cpu, ram, etc. fields I want to put the corresponding description field from the parts table. For example:I want this...id Name CPU RAM MB HDD ... 1 Fast Machine Fast CPU Big RAM Greate MB Huge HDDNOT this....id Name CPU RAM MB HDD ...
1 Fast Machine 1 3 2 7 Below is a screenshot of my actual table relationships.Thanks in advance

Hi,
Code Snippet
This is difficult to explain in words, but the following code outlines what I am trying to do:
with myTableWithRowNum as
(
select 'row' = row_number() over (order by insertdate desc), myValue
from
(
select table1Id As myValue from myTable1
union
select table2Id As myValue from myTable2
)
)
select * from myTableWithRowNum
Can anyone think of a work around so that I can use the Row_Number function where the data is coming from a union?

i have a complex sql statement and i think that my structure looks good but apparently not because i keep getting the same error, i was wondering if anyone knew how to correct this problem.
SELECT A.*, B.Name, C.SIName, D.IID,
(Select [LastName] , [FirstName]
FROM E INNER JOIN F ON E.SID =
F.SID , A
WHERE F.Emp='Service' AND E.Lead=1 AND E.ID=[A].[D])
AS Service,
(Select [LastName] , [FirstName]
FROM E INNER JOIN F ON E.SID =
F.SID ,A
WHERE F.Emp='Industry' AND E.Lead=1 AND E.ID=[A].[D])
AS Industry
FROM A , B, C
WHERE (1=1) AND B.SID = C.SID AND A.ID = B.ID
i always get this error: Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.
does anyone know how to fix this query?

I have this stored procedure that returns a rowid, distance. It has a latitude, longitude, and range as inputs, it takes the latitude and longitude and computes a distance with every lat/long in a table PL_CustomerGeocode. Once that distance is computed it compares that distance with the range, and then returns the rowid, distance if the distance is <= range. I have the SELECT statement down, but now i just need to enter this information into a seperate table PL_Distance with (rowid, distance) as columns. The sql statement is as follows, and i cant figure out where the rowid part is an the distance part is: DECLARE @DegreesToRadians float SET @DegreesToRadians = Pi()/180 SELECT rowid, Cast(distance As numeric(9,3)) AS distance FROM (SELECT rowid, CASE WHEN @srcLat = geocodeLat And @srcLong = geocodeLong THEN 0.0 WHEN ABS(Arc) > 1 THEN 0.0 ELSE 3963.1 * 2 * asin(Power(Arc, 0.5)) END AS distance FROM (SELECT Power(sin(DLat/2),2) + cos(@srcLat*@DegreesToRadians)*cos(geocodeLat*@DegreesToRadians)*Power(sin(DLong/2),2) AS Arc, rowid,geocodeLat,geocodeLong FROM (SELECT @srcLong*@DegreesToRadians-geocodeLong*@DegreesToRadians AS DLong, @srcLat*@DegreesToRadians-geocodeLat*@DegreesToRadians AS DLat, rowid, geocodeLat, geocodeLong FROM dbo.PL_CustomerGeoCode) AS x) AS y) AS z WHERE distance <= @range

I have what is turning out to be a very complex T-SQL query to build.
I'm porting an App from Access to SQL Server... one of the Access queries used a function made in VBA to return a value.
For the life of me, I can't figure out how to make this work using only SQL Statements.
I'm not even sure how to even ask this. So here I go.. I've really simplified the SQL statement to help out with this. There are initially two tables.
Container and TraceRecord
Container is a table of Cargo Containers (the truck trailers you see on the highways)
TraceRecord is a table of location records as the containers move from city to city on the railroad.
The Containers move on fixed routes (ie.. Long Beach to Chicago, Long Beach to New York, etc...).. in the Container table there is a field called Route which records which Route the container is moving on and is related to a table of routes which I'll get to later.
[This is the old Access query.. notice the IIF statement and the function call to "IsOnTime"]
SELECT c.ContainerID, c.IngateDate, t.Location, t.Status, t.EventDate, t.EventTime
IIf(IsNull(c.IngateDate) Or IsNull(t.Location),"No Ingate Rail Record Captured",IsOnTime(t.Location,t.Status,t.Rail,c.Ro ute,c.IngateDate,t.EventDate, t.EventTime)) AS RailSch,
t.Rail
FROM c Container LEFT JOIN t TraceRecord ON c.ContainerID = t.UnitNumber
For each route there is a scheduled travel plan.
Example.. when a container is taken to the BNSF railroad in Long Beach that is called an "Ingate" and is considered Day 0 (zero). As the container moves on the railroad from Long Beach to Chicago, it will pass through other cities, and the TraceRecord table will record where the container is and what time and day.
What I need to do is determine, based on the latest TraceRecord record, by how many hours is the Container "on time".
There is a routing table which lists the predefined travel path for each route.. listing the number of days and hours a container should be a certain place since the day the container was taken into the railroad at the origin "Ingate".
What the IsOnTime function did was take the arguments and do some math with the routing tables and find out how many hours a unit is or is not on time.
Here's a copy of the function from Access 97 using DAO. I don't know if any of this is going to make sense to anyone.. but I'm stuck and don't know what else to do.
Function IsOnTime(strLocation As String, strStatus As String, strRail As String, intRoute As Integer, _
dateIngateDate As Date, dateCurrentDate As Date, dateCurrentTime As Date) As Variant
On Error GoTo errorh:
Dim rs As Recordset 'Rail Schedule Recordset
Dim db As Database 'Current Database
Dim sqlFind As String 'Search String to find city transit time
Dim dateScheduleDateTime As Date
Dim dateDifference As Integer 'Hours difference between trace and schedule
Dim varvar As Variant
If dateIngateDate = Null Then
IsOnTime = -9999
Else
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tTransitTimeTable", dbOpenSnapshot)
sqlFind = "([RouteID] = " & intRoute & " AND [City] = '" & strLocation & "' AND [StatusCode] = '" _
& strStatus & "' AND [Rail] = '" & strRail & "')"
rs.FindFirst sqlFind
If rs.NoMatch = False Then
If (rs!daymarker = "" Or IsNull(rs!daymarker)) And (IsNull(rs!daymarker) Or rs!cutoff = "") Then
IsOnTime = "Finished"
rs.Close
Exit Function
End If
dateScheduleDateTime = DateAdd("d", rs!daymarker, (dateIngateDate + rs!cutoff))
dateDifference = DateDiff("h", dateScheduleDateTime, (dateCurrentDate + dateCurrentTime))
If dateDifference <> 0 Then
IsOnTime = -dateDifference
End If
If dateDifference = 0 Then
IsOnTime = 1
End If
Else
IsOnTime = -9999
End If
rs.Close
End If
Exit Function

Hello, currently I have a query like this:
PHP Code:
SELECT *
FROM relations INNER JOIN
paths ON relations.path = paths.path_id
WHERE
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '162%') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '161%') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161;162%') OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162;161%')
ORDER BY relations.node1
Don't pay attention to the 161 and 162 things, is just test data, now my problem is that I want to transform that into a DELETE statement, but I can't find the right way to do it, so far I managed to do something like:
PHP Code:
DELETE relations
FROM relations INNER JOIN
paths ON relations.path = paths.path_id
WHERE
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '162%') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '161%') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161;162%') OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162;161%')
But that would delete only from the relations table and not from the paths table. I need to delete from both tables.
Can anyone help me please? Its kinda urgent.
Thansk!

Hi all
I im trying to write a SELECT query to display a set of my logged in user's 'Friends'. Although the way that i have designed my tables means that its very complex, and im hoping someone out there can tackle it!
To start ill show you how i contruct friends:
Friends
FriendshipID Incrementing PKInviteeID Unique UserID of person who offered the friendship linkInvitedID Unique UserID of person who was invitesApprovedBInvitee True/False - sets to 'True' by default (probably isnt needed come to think of it )ApprovedByInvited True/False/Declined - an nvarchar
Next, I have my UserDetails table:
UserDetails
UserID Unique UserID PKUserName Unique Username (foreign key from aspnet_Users as created by aspnet_regsql.exe)Avatar Integer which represents an image name in a photos folder
So, on the myFriends.aspx i firstly set an invisible label's text property to the unique UserID of the logged in user. This gives me a control paremater for the select statement.
The information I want to display is just the UserName and Avatar of all users who are friends with the logged in user.
I know that to get the records where the logged in user is either that Invited or the Invitee, I do this:WHERE (@loggedInUser = Friends.IniteeID) OR (@loggedInUser = Friends.InvitedID)
(that will show the logged in user as his own friend but i dont mind that)
After that I am stuck more or less... it seems to become very complex... maybe i need 2 queries?
If anyone can help i would be very very grateful

Hi.
I have two tables. The first is a price proposal table which contains fields like the index of the proposal, proposal decription, proposal date etc. The second table contains data about the products associated with a certain price proposal. This table has a proposal index field and other fields like the index of the product (a unique identifier), product catalog number, price of the product etc.
I want the rows which returned by my select query to display the following:
The Proposal index, description, date, product catalog number grouping, the number of products with a certain catalog number in this proposal, the sum of the prices of these products.
Example:
PriceProposalTable : ProposalIndex = 1 -----> ProductsTable: ProposalIndex = 1, ProductIndex = 1, CatalogNumber=A, Price=100
ProposalIndex = 1, ProductIndex = 2, CatalogNumber=A, Price=90
ProposalIndex = 1, ProductIndex = 3, CatalogNumber=B, Price=80
PriceProposalTable : ProposalIndex = 2 -----> ProductsTable: ProposalIndex = 2, ProductIndex = 4, CatalogNumber=C, Price=100
I want the select query to return:
ProposalIndex ProposalDescription ProposalDate CatalogNumber NumOfProducts SumOfPrices
1 ... ... A 2 190
1 ... ... B 1 80
2 ... ... C 1 100
I hope the example is clear enough. I would appreciate your help on this.
Thanks.

Ok, I have a table with two columns in the group by clause, ServerID and Database ID. I have 9 unique ServierIDs and 117 unique DatabaseIDs. I need a query that says gimme the 5 highest database id hitcount totals for each server id. I would like to do this without a #temp table or a cursor.
here's what I have:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
create table #server_hitcount_summary(
SID int not null,
DBID int not null,
ORD int not null,
SUM_HITCOUNT bigint not null,
SUM_MAXWRITES bigint not null,
SUM_MAXREADS bigint not null,
SUM_MAX_DURATION bigint not null,
SUM_MAX_CPU bigint not null
)
declare @id int
set @id = 1
while (@id < 20)
begin
insert #server_hitcount_summary
select top (@top)
SID,
DBID,
ROW_NUMBER() over (order by sum(hitcount) desc) as ORD,
sum(hitcount) as SUM_HITCOUNT,
sum(MAX_WRITES) as SUM_MAXWRITES,
sum(MAX_READS) as SUM_MAXREADS,
sum(MAX_DURATION) as SUM_MAX_DURATION,
max(max_cpu) as MAX_MAX_CPU
from
hitcounts_table group by SID, DBID having SID = @id and DBID <> 1 order by sum_HITCOUNT desc
set @id = @id + 1
end
select
SID,
DBID,
ORD,
SUM_HITCOUNT,
SUM_MAXWRITES,
SUM_MAXREADS ,
SUM_MAX_DURATION,
SUM_MAX_CPU
from #server_hitcount_summary order by SID asc
drop table #server_hitcount_summary
-------------------------------------------------------------------
What d'ya think? is there a better way to do this?

hi!
i have two tables: Pictures (PictureID, UserName, UserID, DateAdded, Comments int) and UserVisits (VisitID, UserName, UserID, PictureID, NewComment bit)
if a new comment is added on a picture with PictureID = 4, i update NewComment from UserVisits with 1 (true) where PictureID = 4 to all rows,
and if a user visits a picture with PictureID = 5, NewComment will be set to 0 back where pictureID = 5 (something like asp.net, when a reply is added to a therad)
i need to make a stored procedure with UserName input parameter witch selects ALL pictures from Pictures table and selects NewComment (true or false) from UserVisits witch corresponds with that UserName
!!! Is possible that in UserVisits to not have yet any column where UserName corresponds with the user who visits if the user did not visited that picture yet (this stored procedure will be used on a Repeater witch lists all the pictures)
if i was not clear please tell me, sorry i am verry bad at T-SQL language
thanks in advance

I have a very confusing/complicated query that I am trying to run and getting not the results that i want.
Essentially I have three tables (t1, t2, t3) and I want to select data from two of them, but there are conditions on the data where I need fields to match across pairs of tables.
When I run my select query I am getting far too many records - it's giving me all possible combinations, instead of the proper combinations that I want.
Select t1.*, t3.field2, t3.field3
FROM, t1, t2, t3WHERE t2.field4=t3.field4 AND t1.field5=x AND t1.field6=t2.field6
I suspect there is plenty wrong with this query - where should I start correcting it?

I have web forms with about 10-15 optional search parameters (fields) for a give table. Each item (textbox) in the form is treated as an AND condition.
Right now I build complex WHERE clauses based on wheather data is present in a textbox and AND each one in the clause. Also, if a particular field is "match any word", i get a ANDed set of OR's. As you can imagine, the WHERE clause gets quite large.
I build clauses like this (i.e., 4 fields shown):
SELECT * from tableName WHERE (aaa like '%data') AND (bbb = 'data') AND (ccc like 'data%') AND ( (xxx like '%data') OR (yyy like '%data%') )
My question is, are stored procedures better for building such dynamic SQL clauses? I may have one field or all fifteen. I've written generic code for building the clauses, but I don't know much about stored procedures and am wondering if I'm making this more difficult on myself.

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

Hi guys,
I have the query below (running okay):
Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
The results are just as I need:
Field01 Field02
------------- ----------------------
192473 8461760
192474 22810
Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:
Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
INTO AuxiliaryTable
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable
The the results are:
Field02
----------------------
22810
8461760
And what I need is (without showing any other field):
Field02
----------------------
8461760
22810
Is there any good suggestion?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Aldo.
