Concatenate Values From Same Column But Different Record In Single Row
Mar 26, 2008
Hi, I have a difficult case that I need to solve. I will try to be the very clear explaining my problem:
I have a sql query which brings me many records.
This records have a column in common which have the same value (COL1)
There is a second column (COL2) which has different values bewteen these records.
I need to concatenate values from the second column in records with same value in COL1. And I need only one record of the ones that have the same values. If two records have the same COL1 value, only one row should be in my result.
Let me give you an example:
COL1 COL2
RECORD1 1-A HHH
RECORD2 1-A GGG
RECORD3 1-B LLL
RECORD4 1-B MMM
RECORD4 1-B OOO
RECORD5 1-C NNN
Me result should be:
COL1 COL2
RECORD 1-A HHHGGG
RECORD 1-B LLLMMMOOO
RECORD 1-C NNN
It is clear what I need? I dont know if I can solve it through sql or any function inside SSIS.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
I have a query that I'm stumped on. The data has about 6000 records, of which about 460 of those have distinct dealer names and ids.
I am trying to condense this data so that there is only one record for each dealer, but my 3rd column has different values which is why some dealers have only 2 records, and others may have 10.
I know how to select distinct values, but what I want is to return a list of comma separated values for my 3rd column which consists of all the unique values from that 3rd column for that dealer.
For instance, say I have a dealer with 8 records. They have a unique ID and Dealer Name, but the 8 records appear because the dealer has 8 entries for its activity. The activities may or may not be unique.
So for example I have dealer ABC who has an id of 54, their name is ABC, but for their activites they have 8 entries (apple, orange, banana, pear, apple, banana, mango, peach).
I wnt to be able to select the distinct id, name, and distinct activities so that when my query is returned and displayed the record appears as such:
HiI want to achieve the following transformation of data using a storedprocedure.Sourcecol1 col2(varchar)-------------------------1 1.11 1.22 2.12 2.22 2.3=================Desired Resultcol1 col2(varchar)--------------------------1 1.1 | 1.22 2.1 | 2.2 | 2.3=====================Thanks in advance. :)- Parth
The 2 digit number that appears on line 1, 7 and 13 (only in this example) i need to have added to the begin of each value below it until the next 2 digit number is encountered. The desired result set would look like:
I want to concatenate the column_names with the respective values.
Create table #test1 (Id int,Name varchar(10),Country varchar(10))
insert into #test1 values ( 1,'JOHN','USA'), (2,'SAM','CANADA'), (3,'HO','CHINA'), (4,'RAM','INDIA')
select * from #test1
I have temp table with columns (Id,Name, Country). I want to concatenate column_name with their respective values; means i want column_header with every value for the column and then i want to concatenate multiple columns. I am looking for something like below:
ID values 1,NAME-john-COUNTRY-USA 2,NAME-SAM-COUNTRY-CANADA 3,NAME-HO-COUNTRY-CHINA 4,NAME-RAM-COUNTRY-INDIA
Note: This is just a sample .i am looking something dynamic because i have around 50 tables.i can do with query below but since i don't have static columns and table i am looking for something dynamic
select ID, (a+'-'+B) as Value from ( select ID,'NAME'+'-'+NAME as a,'Country'+'-'+Country as b from #test1
I have a table with 10 rows with a varbinary column
I wish to concatenate all the binary column into a single binary column and then write that to another table within the database. This application splits a binary file (Word or PDF document) into multiple segments (this is Column2 as below)
I'm working on a social network where I store my friend GUIDs in a table with the following structure:user1_guid user2_guidI am trying to write a query to return a single list of all a users' friends in a single column. Depending on who initiates the friendship, a users' guid value can be in either of the two columns. Here is the crazy sql I have come up with to give what I want, but I'm sure there's a better way... Any ideas?SELECT DISTINCT UserIdFROM espace_ProfilePropertyWHERE (UserId IN (SELECT CAST(REPLACE(CAST(user1_guid AS VarChar(36)) + CAST(user2_guid AS VarChar(36)), @userGuid, '') AS uniqueidentifier) AS UserId FROM espace_UserConnection WHERE (user1_guid = @userGuid) OR (user2_guid = @userGuid))) AND (UserId IN (SELECT UserId FROM espace_ProfileProperty))
numbers 2 4 2Above is an example of my table with a single column. My problem is how to add all the numbers in that column to make it 8? The rows are also dynamic. Your help is highly appreciated.
I have a table that has multiple postal codes in one of the columns. Those have to be split up one per line and stored in another table. The zip codes are comma seperated. Is there a function that can do this...?
Example data in ZipCodeTable. (Name and ZipCode are 2 columns in a table)
I joined these two tables and it pulled up the proper amount of records. If you check out the image you will see what the results are for this query.
Now all I need for this part would be to roll these up where I have one row per ProgramID and all the AttributeNames' together in a AttributeNames column for each id.
EXAMPLE: All in one row.
ProgramID | AttributeNames 887 | Studydesign, Control Groups, Primary Outcomes.
I have attached an image of the SQL VIEW that I need to modified so it does this.
THE QUERY:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.tblProgramAttributes.ProgramID, dbo.tblProgramAttributes.AttributeID AS PAattributeID, dbo.tblAttributes.AttributeID, dbo.tblAttributes.AttributeName FROM dbo.tblProgramAttributes INNER JOIN dbo.tblAttributes ON dbo.tblProgramAttributes.AttributeID = dbo.tblAttributes.AttributeID WHERE (dbo.tblProgramAttributes.AttributeID NOT LIKE '%ProgramType%') ORDER BY dbo.tblProgramAttributes.ProgramID DESC
I have a stored procedure that returns a single row based on a parameter of employee ID. This particular procedure uses a CTE to traverse our org structure. One of the columns is returning a delimited string of Windows login values and due to the business rules, it can contain duplicate values. I need to have that column contain only unique values - no dupes.
For example, this one column could contain something like this:
I need to write a select query that gets the values of all columns but only returns unique sites because some sites are load balanced across several servers and where this is the case I don't want the site to appear multiple times in the list.
Suppose that I have a table with following values Table1 Col1 Col2 Col3 ----------------------------------------------------------- P3456 C935876 T675 P5555 C678909 T8888
And the outcome that I want is: CombinedValues(ColumnName) ---------------------------------------------- P3456 - C935876 - T675 P5555 - C678909 - T8888
where CombinedValues column contains values of coulmn 1,2 & 3 seperated by '-' So is there any way to achieve this?
If a Select is done on a column whose data type is nvarchar(16) and contains only numerals (UPC numbers) the select does not return the record.
1. Query with numerals in nvarchar column works as long as multiple records are returned (LIKE '012%') 2. Numeric (INT only one tested) columns works as expected 3. String columns with alpha data works as expected 4. Problem only exist when running in Device Emulator and/or actual device. 5. Same test on desktop app runs as expected. 6. Windows Mobile 6, Vista Ultimate 7. Same results when when connection to device from SSMS 8. SQL Servers comes on
Previous thread discussion of this problem (I thought that Parameters corrected problem, but not in all cases???)
12.) Now you have two different tables - each with two columns.Table #1Single Column2 rows with a value equal to 1 and 2Table #2Single column2 rows with a value equal to 2 and 4Construct a statement returning in a single column all the valuescontained, but not the common values.This is another question that I got in an interview, I missedit.......Thanks,Tim
I am trying to count a column field in a single table and return two count values as one record set using group by.
field1 = group by (department) nvarachar field2 = count (closed) datetime
I have tried using derived tables with no luck getting the desired result.
field2 is a datetime field as indicated I want a count for two conditions
1. WHERE field2 is null 2. WHERE field2 is not null
End Results would like this ====== Department | OpenItems | ClosedItems Department1 | 32 | 24 Departmnet2 | 87 | 46 Department3 | 42 | 76
=======
I got it *almost* working with derived tables, but the group by function was not putting the department as one single row. I was getting multiple rows for departments.
I realize this is probably a simple answer and I am making this a lot harder than it actually is....
Hi, I have a table called geofence. It has a primary key geofence_id. Each geofence consists of a set of latitudes and latitudes. So I defined two columns latitude and longitude and their type is varchar. I want to store all latitude/longitude values as a comma separated values in latitude/longitude columns So in general how do people implement these types of requirements in relational databases?
i have a report with contains preview of percentage columns example of percentage of student marks in perticular subject like 95%. and if suppose any student not attend any test i have to dispaly like not attended statement.
so i have display two fields like 95% and not attended statement in same column, i given Cstr(Fields!Data.Value), it gives two fields with contains not attended statement of perticular query and it dispalys 0.95 % . but i need 95% and not attended statement for perticular query in same column.
is there any solution for dispalying string and percentage values in single column for given perticular query and those two values are disply same result compare with preview at the time of export to excel sheet
I have both positive and negative values in a single column, where I want sum total of positive values & negative values. Is there any Expression for this to sort out.
How do I pass a single column of values from a successful merge join to an EXECUTE SQL statement so it can be used with an "IN" criteria of the WHERE clause? Â Here's an example of my update statement with two random key values:
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK IN ("XYZ123", "DEF890")
Is this even possible in SSIS, or am I better off using a loop and running the update EXECUTE SQL Statement for each individual key value, as in the following example?
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "XYZ123" UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "DEF890"
I have a scenario which I am not able to figure out how to do it better for quite some time.
Assume I have a few rows of data : RunningID Date WOid 1234 1/23/2007 23 1236 1/24/2007 23 1239 1/2/2007 24 1222 1/4/2007 23 1321 2/4/2007 22
My objective is to merge all RunningID into a single cell when WOid is the same (this will most probably use a "group by" to get the different WOid out). Maybe some aggregate function that can do it as: select ReturnConca(RunningID, "#") as RunningID_str, max(Date) as MaxDate, max(WOid) as WO from tableXXX group by WOid
I have created a single FULLTEXT on col2 & col3. suppose i want to search col2='engine' and col3='toyota' i write query as
SELECT
TBL.col2,TBL.col3 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col2,'engine') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key] INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col3,'toyota') TBL2 ON
TBL.col1=TBL2.[key]
Every thing works well if database is small. But now i have 20 million records in my database. Taking an exmaple there are 5million record with col2='engine' and only 1 record with col3='toyota', it take substantial time to find 1 record.
I was thinking this i can address this issue if i merge both columns in a Single column, but i cannot figure out what format i save it in single column that i can use query to extract correct information. for e.g.; i was thinking to concatinate both fields like col4= ABengineBA + ABBToyotaBBA and in search i use SELECT
TBL.col4 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABBToyotaBBA"') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key] Result = 1 row
But it don't work in following scenario col4= ABengineBA + ABBCorola ToyotaBBA
SELECT
TBL.col4 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABB*ToyotaBBA"') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
Result=0 Row Any idea how i can write second query to get result?
We have SharePoint list which has, say, two columns. Column A and Column B.
Column A can have three values - red, blue & green.
Column B can have four values - pen, marker, pencil & highlighter.
A typical view of list can be:
Column A - Column B red  - pen red - pencil red - highlighter blue - marker blue - pencil green - pen green - highlighter red  - pen blue - pencil blue - highlighter blue - pencil
We are looking to create a report from SharePoint List using SSRS which has following view:
          red   blue  green   pen       2    0    1   marker    0    1    0   pencil      1    3    0   highlighter  1    1    1Â
We tried Sum but not able to display in single row.
