I have a query that must return information for an invoice. It is not straight forward though. Some things need to be displayed from the if something else is happening...
For example...declare @id int
declare @chargeid int
set @id = 1
set @chargeid = 9
declare @pp bit, @pages int, @pagefee money, @pagecharge money
set @pp = (select perpage from tblmainfees where mainfeesid = @chargeid)
if (@pp = 1)
begin
set @pages = (select pages from tblcharges inner join tblrequest on requestid = fkrequestid where requestid = @id)
if (@pages > 0)
begin
set @pagefee = (select perpagefee from tblmainfees where mainfeesid = @chargeid)
set @pagecharge = (@pages * @pagefee)
end
end
...
select @pagecharge as PerPageCharge
Or should I do some complex query with only one select?

What i got working was to put the query in a temp table called #temp1 and then run this: select sum(theoreticalTime) from #temp1;
SET @EventName = 'DIVIDEND' SET @Ticker = 'IBM' SET @Cusip = ''
SET @Filter = 'Name like ''' + @EventName + '%'' AND Ticker Like ''' + @Ticker + '%'' AND Cusip like ''' + @Cusip + '%'''
Select * from eventdatadetails where @Filter
I want to execute the above SELECT statement and the filters in the where clause should come from the @Fitler variable... but query analyzer gives an error. If i replace the data in the @Filter with the variable in the query, everything works fine ...

Ive got the following SQL query and i want to return only distinct [ReviewID]'s, however SQL Server is complaining about it. This is the query:
SELECT DISTINCT Top 5 [ReviewID],[ReviewType],[ReviewTypeName],[LoginID],[LoginForename],[LoginSurname],[Approved],[ReviewDate] ,[Stars],[RelatedProductID],[Title],[Copy],[Rating], [Image1], [Image1Width], [Image1Height], [Image1AltText], [Image2], [Image2Width], [Image2Height], [Image2AltText], [CategoryL4] FROM [feManagedReview]
This is whats its complaining about:
Msg 421, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable. Msg 421, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable.

I have create a sales delivery printout with the following example information example below gives a delivery and the two sales orders that delievry is related to.
Two tables are T1 = delivery, T2 = orders
Delivery (T1)
linenum Item delievry Qty Ordernum orderlinenum DeliveryNumber 1 A 10 600 1 5001 2 B 5 600 2 5001 3 c 12 605 1 5001 4 P 1 5001
ORDER (T2) number 600
linemum Item OrderQty orderno 1 A 20 600 2 B 10 600 3 A 5 600 ORDER (T2) number 605 linemum Item OrderQty orderno 1 C 20 605 2 B 20 605 3 F 5 605
I want to print a delivery note with the all items on that delivery (delivered items) plus other items on orders which ware not delivered. so the result of the query should look like below
Result NO Item delievry Qty Ordernum orderlinenum ORDER QTY 1 A 10 600 1 20 2 B 5 600 2 10 3 c 12 605 1 20 4 P 1 5 A 600 3 5 6 B 605 2 20 7 F 605 3 5
You can ignore the first column of results which is just the row number.
other conditions
1. Some times the delivery is not based on any sales order 2. Delivery can base on 0,1,2,3 or any number of sales orders. 3. result should provide all rows from the delivery and all rows from sales orders except the rows in the delivery.
I'm sure there is a way of cracking this, but I can't think of a good solution. Right now I am not happy with the solutions I come up with, one of which takes 4 minutes to run on SQL Server The scenario: User is presented with search page where one or more search terms can be entered/selected. There are no required parameters. It can be any or all of the possibilities presented. Below is a model of the search parameters presented. The user will either select to show more options under Profile ABC, or go down to Profile STU or Profile XYZ to show more options, or even select all Profiles and then select from Type 1 and either a. or. b. or. c. or ALL of the above. I cannot predict what a user will make part of the search query so I have to have a stored procedure ready which can handle any or all of the parameters a user may select. Am I biting off more than I can chew (it seems so)? Or is there an elegant way of handling the unknown combination of search parameters that a user might throw into my sql query? I'm running this under ASP 1.0 and SQL Server 2000.
[check to show the options below] Profile ABC [check to shore more options] Type 1

I have 2 tables, say table1, and table2. There is a DocID (primary key) in table1. In table2, DocID is the foriegn key. There can be more than 1 DocID.
how do I join these two tables, such that I get all the otherID's for each DocID. ie., DocID OtherID 1 2 and 10 and 13 and 25 2 3
i am writing this query to display search results on a search page (with keyword search) and so, if I display the result in more than one row, then the user might think that there is more than document...whereas the case is that there is only one document with more than one other ID's.
is there any way I can do this? display...more than 1otherID in the same row for the same DociD? Currently, I am using a left outer join of table1 and table2.

I might have to redesign the tables for this, but I'll ask anyway. I have a table with the following fields:
Email - VarChar Seminar - Int PeckingOrder - Int.
As I add addresses to the table, each one has a Seminar, and then each Seminar has a Pecking Order Value. If an email address shows up for more than one seminar, it can have multiple records. IE:
for address, seminar, and pecking order would be sample entries into the table. Give or Take 1000 records in the table at any given time. What I want to pull out is:
Distinct Email Addresses For each Email Address - The Max(PeckingOrder) And the Seminar that's associated with Max(PeckingOrder)
For the sample data set above, I'd want to see these two records returned by the query:
email1 - 1523 - 424 email2 - 1524 - 235
I can't seem to get the Having / Where clause right to pull those two records properly. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks, --Daniel
Edited - Didn't realize the BB removed email addresses.
SELECT goto_last_name as 'Manager', advisor_name, advisor_ao_number as 'AO', COUNT (CASE advisor_termination_date WHEN '<Null>' THEN 1 END) as '#Advisors', SUM(Weekly_TOS_GDC) as 'TOS GDC' FROM weekly_condensed_tb WHERE advisor_platform_number = 1 AND report_date BETWEEN CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR,'9/11/2007',112) AS DATETIME) -28 AND CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR,'9/11/2007',112) AS DATETIME) GROUP BY goto_last_name,advisor_ao_number,advisor_name HAVING COUNT (CASE advisor_termination_date WHEN '<Null>' THEN 1 END) > 1
In the query above i select a range from the date - 28 days and do a sum on the TOS GDC column. What i am trying to do is have another query where the range will be - 56 and maybe - 86 so i get the SUMS for that as well. I need to display this in SQL Reporting Services and i can only have one DataSet returned otherwise i will not be able to bind it to one table.
How can i go about this so i return one set of data for 3 different date ranges.
I'm struggling with a syntax error in my sp. I'm hoping someone can give it a fresh look and straighten me out. Thanks. Background: 1. The innermost query (using the dynamic statements) will run fine on its own. 2. I can wrap that in another query (with the innermost as a DERIVEDTBL) and it will run fine UNLESS I apply the GROUP BY. Then I get syntax errors. 3. Also, the entire query runs fine as a view (with hard coded vals for column and value). 4. I don't know what kind of formatting this message will apply, so just know that I've checked my line truncations and they all include a trailing '+. Also, I know that Occured is misspelled. That is the correct object name. Not all our DB admins are lit majors.
I have a sql table with corpcode, EmpName, rate, reportdate and Amount fields. I need to write a query that can return corpcode, EmpName, rate and sum of Amount for January, Sum of Amount for Feburary, Sum of Amount for March, Sum of Amount for April, ..........., Sum of Amount for December, Total for All months, Average for all months.
I tried few option, it didn't work for me, Is it possible to do? Have some tried like this earlier?
Hi, I want to create a query with which I must compare the production demands with the production results. The production demands can be get by the join of two tables. The production results can be get from an aggregate of 4 tables. The connection of these two objects rely on two fields that exist in both two objects. In order to show all the production demands I must left join the two fields from the demands object to the two fields exist in the aggegate production object. In MsAccess the only way to do it is to create 2 queries one for the demands and one aggregate for the production and in a third query create two left joins from the demands query to the production query and get the right results. How can I do it with MSSQL Server with a query??
BLOG --POSTER_ID --POSTED_BY (a FK refer to USERID) --UPDATED_BY (a FK refer to USERID)
USER --USER_ID --NAME
I want to retrieve the info for all posts that posted and updated by different users, also the query returns both user names for every posted and updated action.
I can write two queries to do that
select B.POSTER_ID, U.NAME from Blog B inner join USER U ON B.POSTED_BY = U.USER_ID
select B.POSTER_ID, U.NAME from Blog B inner join USER U ON B.UPDATED_BY = U.USER_ID
Then write some code to combine the result for the posted and updated user name. But this is not efficient.
I am wondering how can I write one query to archeive that?

I have tried various combination of Joins, but unable to get the desired result as the tables have many-to-many relationships, therefore I get many duplicate rows in the result. UNION will not solve the problem, as that will add the additional rows for the third table. Although I can achieve this by writing few lines of code, but I have to create a SQL Query for getting this result. Kindly tell me the way for creating the required Query for this. Many Thanks for your help.
Now, i have a project in ASP.NET and SQL Server 2005. let's call the project an image gallery, in my project i have a table named "Category" in which all the categories are in this table. also while adding a new category a new table will be created automatically with the name of that category.
now, what i want is that to build a query that reads the contents of the tables that the tables name are the names of the each record in the "Category" table.
Table Name: Story Table Columns: user_id, date, name, yr_left, city_origin, country_origin, yr_arrival, city_arrival, state_arrival, address, city, state, zip, AorV (audio or video), filename, approved
I need to create two queries. One based on date in descending order, and one based on country_origin in alphabetical order. For both of these queries, the approved field has to = Y for yes, and when I return results I need it to return everything in the table EXCEPT for the name.
I'm a beginner at SQL queries so I was hoping someone could shed some light and help me??? Thanks a bunch!
ID, EntryDate and Comment are all easily returned from the [Journal] table. The problem I am having is with the Income and Expense fields. For the Income field, I want to SUM the Journal_Split.Amount fields where Journal_Splts.JEID = Journal.ID AND where Journal_Splits.Type = 1 (1 being the code for Income). The Expense field is just the same, except the Journal_Splits.Type will be equal to 2. When the query is done there should only be as many rows as there are in the [Journal] table, for the [Journal_Splits] table can contain up to 3 records for each [Journal] record. [Journal_Splits] just holds the individual amounts split out to different income/expense categories for a single transaction.
This to me has a lot of conditions that I can't even seem to build with access's query builder (yes I am using access for now.. will change over to sql at a later time).
Anyone have a good idea how to do this? Or have a better idea for structuring the database to make is easier to query? Right now I have it working, but instead of an Amount field, I have 1 Income and 1 Expense field, but since a transaction can only be either income or expense, one field will always be 0, which seems like a waste of space.
That may be a bit confusing so let me know if I can clarify. Much appreciated.
