Complicated Query - SQL Gurus Help Please
Mar 20, 2008
Hi,
I am positive some SQL Gurus can help me with this complicated query. I am not sure if it is possible with a single query or needs multiple queries.
I have 3 objects. First, PaintOrder; Second, Combination; and Third, Material. Each Paint Order can have multiple Combinations and each Combination can have multiple (from 0 to 5) Materials. All the data is stored in single table called paintMatCom.
Here is the sample Data
PaintOrderId CombId MaterialId
1000 1 1
1000 1 2
1000 2 3
2000 1 1
2000 2 3
2000 2 4
3000 1 1
3000 1 2
3000 2 3
3000 3 4
3000 3 5
I have a Search Screen where user can select multiple Materials (upto 5) to search for the appropriate PaintOrders. Also, use has the option to select AND/OR between materials. Please look at the attached image for clear understanding.
Some of the sample searches are as follows (Combination IDs are not needed in the Output; just PaintOrder IDs).
1. Find PaintOrders with MaterialIDs 1 AND 2 OR 4
2. Find PaintOrders with MaterialIDs 2 OR 3 OR 4
3. Find PaintOrders with MaterialIDs 3 AND 4 OR 5 OR 1
Hope you got the idea. I think it would require some Joins and GROUP BY which I am not expert at. I would appreciate any help.

Probably this will be a silly question?
1. How can I Put all the Q documents from Microsoft that are related to SQL server? So that I can search fast.
2. How can I search SWYNK for all the ANSWERS that MAK/CRAIG/RAY replied to the threads. Its so weird that I answered someone and now I forgot the answer what I posted. Now I am having the same problem. I cant search.
3. I wanna put all SWYNK's Questions responses in one database say SQLSERVER, so that I can search all the threads.
I had sent many emails to SWYNK. No reply so far.
Any inputs r well appreciated!!!!!!

Hello
I am trying to write and SQL query...
I have a table with 4 columns, ID, Key, Value and SiteID.
SiteID can be Null or an int.
As an example I could have these four rows,
ID=1, key=colour, value=red, siteID=Null
ID=2, key=colour, value=green, siteID=2
ID=3, key=font, value=arial, siteID=2
ID=4, key=size, value=6,siteID=Null
My query will pass in a siteID and I need to bring back all rows with that site ID plus any rows whos key I haven't already got who's siteID =Null.
The Null site ID is default, so it always needs to bring back the null if a key doesn't exist with a siteID.
Does anyone know if that is even possible with just a straight SQL query?
Thanks
Becky

Hi I have been tearing my hair out trying to resolve this problem.
A form is submitted with a number in to checkthe database for the items with that number of items in the quantity field(s) and display them.
There are 2 relevant Tables in the 2005 server SQL Database, One called "Products" the other called "ProductDetails"
In both tables is a field called Quantity, this hold a numerical value for the quantity of the product.
Some products have additional attributes such as sizes or colours and these are stored in the ProductDetails table.
Every product is stored in the "Products" table and has a unique ProductID, where a product has additional attributes, these along with the ProductID and the quantity for that particular attribute are stored in the ProductDetails table.
I am trying to loop through the database and produce a list of all the items and if they have any additional size or colour attributes then display these too, and if they dont have additional attributes then just display the product details and quantity stored in the Products table.
What I have actually done instead is produce a list of every item and every attribute in the database, but for example Where product 1 doesnt have any attributes, and neither does product 2, but product 3 and product 3 do, when the details are displayed on the page (Using ASP),
Rather than displaying product 1 details and the quantity in the "Products" table, product 2 and the details & quantity in the Products table, then product 3 and each of the attributes & Quanity pertaining to that item in the "ProductDetails" table, and so on, it shows every item as having every combination of attributes,
so although products 1 and 2 have no attributes, it will show product 1 with the first attribute of the other products and then show another product 1 with the next attribute from another product and keep going untill all the attributes in the whole of the Product details table is shown , then do the same thing with product 2 and then product 3 and so on.....
Also the products that have no attributes are not only shown with the attributes that they dont have, they are not shown without attribues and with the correct details in the list.
Here is my string, which has changed a million times, I am just learning as I go along so if it is obvious please be pateient with me and help me out...
rsResults.Source = "SELECT DISTINCT Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName, Products.ProductPict, Products.Quantity, ProductDetails.ProductDetailID, ProductDetails.P_Size, ProductDetails.P_Color, ProductDetails.Quantity FROM Products, ProductDetails WHERE Products.ProductID = Products.ProductID AND Products.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & " OR Products.ProductID = ProductDetails.ProductID AND ProductDetails.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & " Order by Products.ProductID asc "
Can anyone see why it is doing this instead of only showing the attributes next to the items that have attribues?
Please help
Warm Regards,
Joe

I am trying to use ssis (sql query or .net-script task)
to transfer data from one table to another.
I have difficulties to make the query:
i have one table tbl_games which fields are :
type ,startDateTime, EndDateTime, playerId.
I need to check every 1/2 hour according to the startDateTime,
How many times a person is playing and to show it in a new table
tbl_collectData like this:
TimeplayerId Games_0-30_secondsGames_30-50_seconds
8-8:30 A 3 2
8:30-9B 2 10
9-:30C 20 7
The length of the game is measured by the StartDateTime -EndDateTime,
and only games type # 2 is being collected.
The number 3 example is: 3 games that lasted between 0-30 seconds and were played between 8-8:30 by player A, and the game type is 2.
I tryed to start by doing something like this , but it is not a complete query:
INSERT INTO tbl_collectData
(Time, playerId, Games_0-30_seconds)
SELECT '12 / 26 / 2007 4 : 53 : 03 PM' AS Expr1, playerId, COUNT(DATEDIFF(ss, StartDateTime, EndDateTime)) AS numberOfCalls_0_30
FROM tbl_games WHERE (Type = 2) AND (DATEDIFF(ss, StartDateTime, EndDateTime) < 31) AND (StartDateTime > '12 / 26 / 2007 4 : 53 : 03 PM') AND
(StartDateTime < '12 / 26 / 2007 5 : 23 : 03 PM')

Hi,I have two tables Trade table and Cons table. Records are inserted inboth the tables independent of each other. There are fields likeExc_Ref, Qty, Date in both the tables.I need to write a query which should give me records :1. Where there is missing Exc_Ref value in either of the table. i.e.If Trade table has a Exc_Ref value but missing in Cons table then thatrecord should be displayed. Similarly if Cons has a Exc_Ref valuewhich is not found in Trade table then that too should be displayed.2. In case where both the tables have matching Exc_Ref data then itshould display the record only when the remaining column does notmatch like Qty or Date.Please help me to resolve this complicated query.ThanksNick

Hi Guys
I Have not been able to solve this problem from quiete a while now.
I am using sql server 2005.
I have got a table which contains these columns - start date, end date and volumes
if the month in the start date is same as that of end date, the volume remains same, else if the months in the two dates are different, then i have to distribute the volume in such a way that some part will go in the first month and the rest in the other month.. i have to somehow calculate (or prorate) the volume according to the no of days in each month
I have to perform a query on this table so that I can group the volumes for different months and different years.
Here is the sample data...

I'll start by giving the basic idea of the data structure I'm looking at in the database (pardon my MS Paint skills!):
And this all starts with a root plan. So (taking projects out of the picture for the minute), it could be a structure going any number of levels down like so: plan -> goal -> strategy -> plan -> goal -> strategy -> plan -> goal -> strategy, etc.And not forgetting, that a strategy can also have any number of projects, and all these relationships are one to many, so it ends up being like a large tree structure.
What I am trying to accomplish is user security related, in that I need to enforce rules set to say whether a single user is allowed to view a project. You can define the rules at any level in the structure above. So if for instance, a user is given a rule that they can access anything from a goal, they can see any projects that exist in any strategies underneath that goal in the tree structure. I hope this is making sense so far... The rules can also just be defined at a specific project level.
These rules (at the moment, I'm more than happy to change if this is a silly way of doing it) are set in a table that has the columns:user_id intplan_id intgoal_id intstrategy_id intproject_id intallow bitEvery row will have a user_id value, and one of either a plan_id, goal_id, strategy_id or project id (which I thought would be a simple way to pull out what kind of rule if needed), and the allow column just defines if it's an allow or deny rule (a specific deny rule on any object lower in the tree structure will override any cascaded allow rule).
The way my application needs to grab this information, is to simply have some way of returning a list project_id values for which the current user is allowed to access. I'm basically stumped. The closest I have gotten (which still didn't quite work) was going to end up using quite a large number of cursors... Which is bad. It can be inefficient to an extent, as once these values are gathered once, I can store them in a Session variable, so it's not grabbing them every time the user tries to load a project.
Thanks for any help!

You can display both by referring to their position in the recordset or by aliasing them in the query and referring to the alias in your code.
Note that in order to put Products.Quantity or ProductDetails.Quantity in just one column you'll have to add some logic in the query, using a coalesce, like:
sql Code:
Original
- sql Code
SELECT
Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName, Products.ProductPict,
COALESCE(Products.Quantity, ProductDetails.Quantity, 0) Quantity,
ProductDetails.ProductDetailID, ProductDetails.P_Size, ProductDetails.P_Color
FROM
Products
LEFT OUTER JOIN
ProductDetails
ON Products.ProductID = ProductDetails.ProductID
WHERE
Products.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & "
OR
ProductDetails.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & "
Order by Products.ProductID asc;
SELECT Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName, Products.ProductPict, COALESCE(Products.Quantity, ProductDetails.Quantity, 0) Quantity,ProductDetails.ProductDetailID, ProductDetails.P_Size, ProductDetails.P_ColorFROM Products LEFT OUTER JOIN ProductDetails ON Products.ProductID = ProductDetails.ProductID WHERE Products.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & " OR ProductDetails.Quantity <= "& +rsResults__var1 & " ORDER BY Products.ProductID ASC;
Untested, beware of syntax errors!
In this case you'll have just one Quantity colum and you won't have to change anything in your asp code.

I have run into a problem, I have 2 fields in my database, both key fields:
Table 1
=====
Field X <key>
Field Y <key>
In field X, there are say about 3 records for each unique Field Y. I let my users query the data base like follows:
Enter the Codes you want: 1000 and 3000 and 8500
So I want to pick up records where there will be the above values for All Y values. i.e 1000/AAA, 3000/AAA, and 8500 for AAA - if there is even ONE of the X values not matching a record without a matching X value, leave it out.
i.e:
X=1000,Y=AAA
X=3000,Y=AAA
X=8500,Y=AAA
X=1000,Y=BBB
X=3000,Y=BBB
X=8500,Y=BBB
X=1000,Y=CCC
X=3000,Y=CCC
X=9999,Y=CCC
When the query runs, I want to see the following records:
X=1000,Y=AAA
X=3000,Y=AAA
X=8500,Y=AAA
X=1000,Y=BBB
X=3000,Y=BBB
X=8500,Y=BBB
BUT NOT:
X=1000,Y=CCC
X=3000,Y=CCC
X=9999,Y=CCC
because one of the X values was not matched (the last X value =9999 and not one of the requirements of the search)
So I guess I want something like this:
SELECT X,Y from TABLE1 WHERE ALL Y VALUES HAVE ALL OF THESE X VALUES (X=1000,X=3000,X=8500) IF ANY X VALUES ARE MISSING SKIP RECORD
^^ Hope the above makes sense... but I am really stuck. The only other way I think I could do it is, copy all records that match all 3 X values into a temp table, and weed out any that are missing any one of the X values after they are copied but, I am running this on MYSQL 5.0 Clustered, and there is not enough room in memory for it probably... and query time has to remain under a second.
Anyhelp would be appreciated...

Hi,
hope someone can help or suggest something to help me with the issue.
I have a list of projects. this list contains all master (parent) and all subprojects(child). when I click on a project I want to be able to retreive information about that project and it's subprojects. here is my delema. I want my sql query to check if project is master or sub. if master then get all data for this project and its subprojects but if it's sub then get data only for that sub. below is a sample data that I hope it clear things up
parent_ID child_id Type projname
-----------------------------------------------
100 100 P parent_X_proj
100 25 C child_X_proj
100 29 C child_X_proj2
200 200 P parent_Z
300 300 P parent_Y
etc................
this is how my table is constructed. my application passes child_id and what I want is if someone clicks on parent_X_proj I want to be able to retreive the three projects (100,25,29) but if someone clicks on child project (29) then I want only that project.
so I want my query to look for the type and if my type is P (parent) then get all project where parent_id = 100(for example) but if type= C then get child_id = 29.
I know it could be done in stored procedure buy my application cannon executre SP but only sql statements.
Thank you for any help

My boss has a crazy idea that he want to implement using SQL 2005 and ASP.NET 2. Its something like this... If a user retrieve a record and someone is updating that same record a control on a asp.net page would warn that user that its being updated. Just like a stop light, green for go, yellow for warning, and red for stop. Were implementing optimistic here not pessimistic. Is this possible? I know pessimistic can lock that certain record. But what about in optimistic? Is it possible to monitor or know if a certain record or row in SQL 2005 is being access, updated, and deleted? How?

I want to insert a row from tab2 if its not there in tab1.
And I want to update col3 of tab1 from col6 of tab2 if col1+col2 matches col4+col5.
Any thoughts on doing these 2 tasks. I am sure these will be 2 differnet commads.

Hi,I have a table in which two fields(FirstID, SecondID) together make theprimary key for the table. Let's look at the following example:FirstID SecondID******* ********2 22 32 55 55 78 79 1011 12Here is what I am trying to do. For a given FirstID (say, 2) find allSecondID with this FirstID (2,3,5). Now for these second ID's is therea FirstID other than 2? (Yes, 5). I would say FirstID=2 is related toFirstID = 5. Extending the logic FirstID = 5 is related to FirstID = 8.I am trying to write a SQL (some kind of self join, I think) which willgive me all related FirstID for a given First ID. For First ID = 2 theSQL will give me 5 and 8 in the above example. For First ID = 9 the SQLwill give me 11.Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!-Raj

Perhaps you can help with something that I consider kind of omplicated? (I am SO hoping that I am NOT going to have to do this manually!!!)
I have a table (about 3000 rows) where two of the columns have Domain User information.
COL1 has DOMAINUsername and COL2 has (or SHOULD have) DOMAIN@username.com
I need to look at each field in COL1 and if exists DOMAINusername, I need to populate COL2 with username@DOMAIN.com
Is this possible???

The low down:
Local Web Server on Windows 2003
Local SQL Server on Windows 2003
Hosting dynamic website tied to inhouse Access Application
Ok, basically, how it is set up, people can login to our website and enter data (insert record), on our end, we have an Access application where we can play with the data that was entered via the website. Currently, we do not have either server set up as a Mail server.
What we need to be able to do:
When a customer enters data on our website, their supervisor, and about 2-3 other people related to the transaction need to be emailed to be notified that an order was submitted. So how do I code that? On the page with the Insert Record? OR after Insert Record redirect them to another page that sends the mail out?
Which server do I enable the mail?
I was reading about SQL Mail etc, which would be good since we do mass emails to clients weekly, but I have no idea how to set that up and I look crossed eyed at any tutorial.
Do I want to set up theSQL server to also be a Mail Server that way we can use the SQL database to email as well as data entered from the website? But then again, the website points to the Web Server which pulls data off the SQL server (so unless the Web Server is a mail server, nothing will be sent, am I right?)
*sigh*
I know very little about SQL and I'm being asked to impliment this and I am 100% confused. I'm a graphics artist not a programmer! LOL
Thanks in advance to anyone who can/will help me.

We need to return the results of a query as a single string.For example if the query returns 10 rows,all the 10 rows should be concatenated and put it in an output @returnstring. Is that possible in SQL stored procedures ??
Thanks!

SQL Server Load Balancing -- Any ideas?
There is no inherent mechanism available in SQL Server (replication, log shipping, or clustering) which allows you to load balance you database server.
Clustering is only useful for a failover situation and does not allow active/active balancing.
Is is possible to use merge replication between two identical OLTP servers
and manage transactions via MSMQ? Will this mechanism allow for a load balanced OLTP server?
Will this work? If not, why not?
What will work? Will federated servers work for an entire database??

I need to determine the differences between two tables with the same structure. The primary key for these tables would be a combination of all the columnhs. They use the ID field to join all their records. (i know ID is a reserved word - the client made the tables) Below is the structure of the tables.
TableA
and
TableB
----------
ID int
ComBank int
inboth int
EqorMA int
TranType int
I need to know the rows that Are different in TableA from TableB.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
James

Hi there!
I'm trying to insert a MSWord/Bitmap/Powerpoint file into a table in SQL 2000. Unfortunately, I haven't had the luck to get it work. Here is my table structure :
Create table tbl_blob (
doc_id varchar(20) not null,
doc_blob image null )
My question is, do you have any script on how I can insert a MSWord/Bitmap file in my blob table. I will be running the script using Query Analyser.
thanks!

i realize i am starting to ask a lot of questions here so, thanks to all who tolerate me.
In my previous post, i figured out (with the help of r937) how to create a non-identity column using a cursor. I now have some resulting questions.
1. where do cursors live? there is no folder like triggers or stored procedures. is a cursor its own file or is it embedded in a stored procedure?
2. how do i get my cursor to "act" upon my stored procedure? I want the values in my cursor's "relativeposition" column to replace the values in my stored procedure's photo_number column. how do i do this?
BELOW IS MY STORED PROCEDURE:
Code:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.sp_NewPersonalPic
(
@photo_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_location VARCHAR(100) = NULL,
@photo_size VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@user_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_caption VARCHAR(150) = NULL,
@photo_default BIT = NULL,
@photo_private BIT = NULL,
@photo_number INTEGER = NULL,
@photo_date DATETIME = NULL
)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT @photo_date = CONVERT(DATETIME,convert(char(26), getdate(), 109))
END
--SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF
INSERT INTO PersonalPhotos
(photo_name, photo_location, photo_size, user_name, photo_caption, photo_default, photo_private, photo_number, photo_date)
VALUES (@photo_name, @photo_location, @photo_size, @user_name, @photo_caption, @photo_default, @photo_private, @photo_number, @photo_date)
--SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON
END
RETURN
AND HERE IS THE CURSOR:
Code:
DECLARE RelativePositionCursor
CURSOR LOCAL FAST_FORWARD FOR
SELECT photoId, photo_date
FROM PersonalPhotos
ORDER BY photo_date ASC
OPEN RelativePositionCursor
DECLARE @curs_id INT
DECLARE @curs_date DATETIME
DECLARE @totalRows INT
DECLARE @firstRow INT
SET @firstRow = 0
DECLARE @Results TABLE
(
curs_id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
curs_date DATETIME,
RelativePosition INT
)
FETCH NEXT FROM RelativePositionCursor
INTO @curs_id, @curs_date
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @totalRows = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM PersonalPhotos)
WHILE(@firstRow <= @totalRows)
BEGIN
SET @firstRow = @firstRow + 1
BREAK
END
INSERT @Results
VALUES (@curs_id, @curs_date, @firstRow)
FETCH NEXT FROM RelativePositionCursor
INTO @curs_id, @curs_date
END
CLOSE RelativePositionCursor
DEALLOCATE RelativePositionCursor
SELECT *
FROM @Results
ORDER BY curs_date

The Scenario:We have some data that can be in three states. One is a saved state,a temporary state, and a complete state.The complete state is the bulk of the data. This data will berequested 1% of the time, maybe even less.The saved state and temporary state will only number 10-15 records.This data will be used 99% of the time, very frequently.So to summarize there will be 10-15 records that will be used ALL thetime…. And 50,000-100,000 that will be used very infrequently.The programmer that I work with wants to combine the tables. I wantto keep the tables sepperate.My logic is that it will be much faster to work with 10-15 recordsthan sift threw 50-100k most of which are unnecessary to 99% of therequests. Also there are frequent deletions/modifications in thetemporary table(10-15 records). The complete table can NOT havemodifications or deletions (50-100k records). The optimization forthese tables is also very different.He says that since the structures are almost identical they should bein the same table, that we should just use a field to denote thedifferent types of records. He insists that my view is wrong and thatI know nothing about databases.I may be new to SQL, but am I really that out to lunch? Would it notmake sense to keep these tables separate?(Thank you for taking the time to read this)Sat
