Concatenating Column Values In SELECT Statement
Aug 31, 2000
I'm puzzled as to how to express what I want in a stored procedure. Assume two columns, Surname and GivenName. The surname might be missing. When I originally wrote this app in Access, I used the following expression:
SELECT Iif( IsNull(Surname), GivenName, Surname + ", " + GivenName ) AS Agent
FROM Agents;
I've looked at the syntax for CASE but I can't figure out exactly how to say what I intend, particularly the AS Agent column aliasing.
Any help greatly appreciated. Please cc me privately so I receive your assistance at once!
TIA,
Arthur

I have an SQL Select statement that I need to add a column to called SalePrice, the SalePrice column needs to be calculated by adding together the values of 12 columns, then multiplying that value by the value in a another column to calculate margin. My issue is that I can only get it to add 7 column values together, if I add any more columns to the equation it just returns and null result. My DB is SQL 2005 Express SP2. My select statement is below: SELECT dbo.MFG_DATA_Machines.ID, dbo.MFG_DATA_Machines.MachineName, dbo.MFG_DATA_Parts_CPU.PartDescription AS CPU,

I have a customer who has recently migrated their SQL server to a newserver. In doing so, a portion of a stored procedure has stoppedworking. The code snippet is below:declare @Prefixes varchar(8000),declare @StationID int-- ...select @Prefixes = ''select @Prefixes = @Prefixes + Prefix + '|||'from Devicewhere Station_ID = @StationIDEssentially, we are trying to triple-pipe delimit all the deviceprefixes located at a specified station. This code has workedflawlessly for the last 10 months, but when the database was restoredon the new server, @Prefixes only contains the prefix for the lastdevice.Is there a server, database, or connection option that permits this towork that I am not aware of? Why would this work on the old server andnot on the new? (BTW - both servers are running SQL 2000 StandardSP4).Thanks!

Hello,
I have such a problem. Need to add additional column to my query. The column should consist of set of fixed number (same as number of query rows) values (text). At start thought it's simple but now Im lost. Is there any chance to do it. Apreciate any help. I need to tell that I have only access to select on this database so no use of operation on tables.

I am writing a query and have the bulk of it already written.
I am looking at a table that contains customer orders. There is a column named Customer_Order.Status Available values for this column is R, F, H, and C.
I'd like for my query to return all lines that have the value R, F, H.
My where clause is written like this
WHERE CUSTOMER_ORDER.SITE_ID = 'XXX' AND CUSTOMER_ORDER.STATUS = ('R','H','F')
I know I'm missing something....

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.

I have a table which has 4 fields, patientid,testdate,testtype,results.
I want to select the most recent testdate by a patient regardless
of the results, or the testtype. I do however need those fields for my query.
I tried the below, but I get more than 1 record if the person has had two different types of tests. For instance if patient 100 has the following 2 records I just want the most recent
patientid testdate testype results
100 01/02/2002 TBI ASYMP
100 02/02/2001 PPD 00000
select max(testdate)as testdate,testtype, other_id_number
from vw_cms_tb_lasttest
What am missing?
Thanks
group by other_id_number,testtype
order by other_id_number,testtype

I am running a select statement against a function that is giving me different values depending on how it is called. When I run it through sql server management studio, I get the proper results, the default value column has the parameters default value. When I call it through my web app, I get this in the default value column:

Hi,
I have SQL database 2000 which has one table Sheet1, I retrieved the columns in the ListBox, then chosed some of them and moved it to ListBox2.
The past scenario worked great, and I checked the moved values, it was succesfully moved, but when I tried to copy the values in ArrayList to do a select statement it didn't worked at all.
public string str;protected void Button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ArrayList itemsSelected = new ArrayList(); string sep = ",";
//string str;for (int i = 0; i < ListBox2.Items.Count; i++)
{if (ListBox2.Items[i].Selected)
{
itemsSelected.Add(ListBox2.Items[i].Value);
}
int itemsSelCount = itemsSelected.Count; // integer variable which holds the count of the selected items.
str = ListBox2.Items[i].Value + sep;
Response.Write(str);
}
SqlConnection SqlCon = new SqlConnection("Data Source=AJ-166DCCD87;Initial Catalog=stat_rpt;Integrated Security=True;Pooling=False");
String SQL1 = "SELECT " + str + " from Sheet1"; SqlDataAdapter Adptr = new SqlDataAdapter(SQL1, SqlCon);
SqlCommandBuilder CB = new SqlCommandBuilder(Adptr);DataTable Dt = new DataTable();
Adptr.Fill(Dt);
//return Dt;
GridView1.DataBind();
SqlCon.Close();
}
I did some changes and the new error message is
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'from'.
Thank you

Hi.
I have an sql table which contains a number and a name. I would like to create a select statement that will display these two fields in the format :
"number | name", but if there is a null value in the number it will display only the name and vice versa.
How can I do it ?
Any help is appreciated.

I would like to write a select statement where I specify a list of values in the 'Select' line, and would like the output to have one line for each element.
I tried using Case with no success.
For example:
Select a.id, a.timestamp, ('rowA','rowB') as 'Tag' from tableOne a where a.id = '1'
So the 'where' line would produce one row, however, the overall statement would produce two.
ID TimeStamp Tag
--------------------------------
1 2012-12-12 rowA
1 2012-12-12 rowB

Hi Guys,
I am converting Access queries to SQL. One query has a string of IIF statements that can concatenate several strings into one field. For instance:
IIf([Hot Dogs]=-1,"* Wants a Hot Dog ","") &
IIf([Hamburger]=-1,"*Wants a Hamburger ","") &
IIf([mustard]=-1,"*add mustard ","") &
IIf([fries]=-1,"*Include Fries ","") &
IIf([Chips]=-1,"*Include Chips ","")
Consequently the output could be:
*Hamburger *add mustard *Include Chips
I know I can use the ‘Case When Then’ statement but how do I concatenate?
Thanx

Hey everyone,
This is probably a very simple question, but I am just stumped. I am storing different name parts in different fields, but I need to create a view that will pull all of those fields together for reports, dropdowns, etc.
Here is my current SELECT statement:
SELECT m.FName + SPACE(1) + m.MName + SPACE(1) + m.LName + ', ' + m.Credentials AS Name,
m.JobTitle,
m.Company,
m.Department,
m.Address,
m.City + ', ' + m.State + ' ' + m.Zipcode AS CSZ,
m.WorkPhone,
m.FAX,
m.Email,
c.Chapter,
m.Active,
s.Sector,
i.Industry
FROM tblMembers m
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblChapters c
ON m.ChapterID = c.ChapterID
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblSectors s
ON m.SectorID = s.SectorID
LEFT OUTER JOIN tblIndustries i
ON m.IndustryID = i.IndustryID
WHERE m.DRGInclude = 1
My problem is that I don't know how to test for NULL values in a field. When you concatenate fields that contain NULL values, the entire contactenated field returns NULL. I am not aware of an IF statement that is available within the SELECT statement.
The first thing I would like to accomplish is to test to see if MName contains NULL. If it does I do not want to include + SPACE(1) + m.MName in the clause. Then, if Credentials contains NULL I do not want to include + ', ' + m.Credentials in the clause.
Can someone tell me what I am missing? Is there a function that I can use for this?
Thanks,

SELECT retval = 'Record Deleted', errorcount = 0, 0 AS affiliate_id
RETURN
END
GO
My question is how will I be able to return the retval? Will I need to do it within the code behind of the SqlDataSource Updated Event?
Thanks!

Hello,
This may be a strange request, but I am going to ask about it anyways.
Say for example if I have a table named TEST and in the table there is a column named NUMBERS, such that it is like this:
NUMBERS
1
2
3
4
How could I use a select statement in a way that a comma would seperate every return value, such that if I go 'Select NUMBERS from TEST' I would get:
1,2,3,4
Instead of:
1
2
3
4
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I got a really simple question here. Say I have a table with
ID, Name
1, A1
2, A2
3, A3
....
10, A10
Now I want to combine the names into another table grouped by their ID (say 1-5, 6-10), so this new table has two names instead of 10:
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5
A6 A7 A8 A9 A10
Is there a function that allows me to 'combine' the names from a select statement?
Thanks in advance,
Steven

Hi all
I have the following tables:
Code Snippet
CREATE TABLE #Lkp_Circle
(
ID INT ,
Abbreviation varchar(50)
)
GO
CREATE TABLE #Lkp_OtherCircles

INSERT INTO #Tbl_UserDetails VALUES(102,4)
INSERT INTO #Tbl_UserDetails VALUES(103,5)

GO
SELECT ISNULL(Circle,'Total') Circle, ISNULL(COUNT([HeadCount]),SUM(1)) AS [Total]
FROM
(
SELECT DISTINCT 'Circle' = CASE

----EXPECTED RESULT
--Circle HeadCount
--C3 2
--C4 1
--C5 2
--C6 0
--Others 0
--Total 5
--
----ACTUAL RESULT
--Circle HeadCount
--C3 2
--C4 1
--C5 2
--Total 5
The criteria for Others is that those circles which are not part of #Lkp_OtherCircles i.e. C1,C2,C3 and C7 clubbed together. I have tried checking for the condition ISNULL when for that circle there is no user but the end result is same. Can someone tell me where I am going wrong and how to correct it?

Hey guys,
This is what I think and hope is a fairly straight forward SQL question
Essentially, I have a table which has the following columns that are relevent to my question:
PROJID
ACTIVITY_NAME
COMPLETION_DATE
Rows in this table are, for example:
PROJID ACTIVITY_NAME COMPLETION_DATE
1 Prepro 10/12/2007 3:42:30
2 Prepro 10/13/2007 9:16:27
2 QA 10/13/2007 10:00:01
2 Delivery 10/14/2007 09:31:12
etc.
So, really the key is the PROJID & the ACTIVITY_NAME (really, there's a unique column ID, but for this question, I'll leave it at that).
(Though this should be much easier to accomplish in code, the system is not built that way so) Is there a good way that I could return a status for a given PROJID based on whether a row exists for a given PROJID). In other words, ultimately, I would like to return something like this:
PROJID LAST_ACTIVITY
----------------------------------------------
1 Prepro
2 Delivery
where the activity order (in this case) is Prepro, QA, Delivery. So because a Delivery row exists for PROJID 2, then the LAST_ACTIVITY would return "Delivery" and because only Prepro exists for PROJID 1, the LAST_ACTIVITY returned would be Prepro
I really appreciate the help
Thanks,
Steve

I have row group created here on Due Month & Sales Region & added total after Due Month. When a user clicks on particular amount I would like to send the Sales Region value to the new report as Parameter. So Instead of Total text , I would like to have all the sales regions concatenated and sent to the new report. writing an expression to get the report parameter? I have added the picture of how I want the values to be concatenated , instead of Total . Is this not possible in SSRS?

I have a gridview that is based on the selection(s) in a listbox. The gridview renders fine if I only select one value from the listbox. I recive this error though when I select more that one value from the listbox:
Syntax error converting the nvarchar value '4,1' to a column of data type int. If, however, I hard code 4,1 in place of @ListSelection (see below selectCommand WHERE and IN Clauses) the gridview renders perfectly.
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSourceAll" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT dbo.Contacts.Title, dbo.Contacts.FirstName, dbo.Contacts.MI, dbo.Contacts.LastName, dbo.Contacts.Suffix, dbo.Contacts.Dear, dbo.Contacts.Honorific, dbo.Contacts.Address, dbo.Contacts.Address2, dbo.Contacts.City, dbo.Contacts.StateOrProvince, dbo.Contacts.PostalCode FROM dbo.Contacts INNER JOIN dbo.tblListSelection ON dbo.Contacts.ContactID = dbo.tblListSelection.contactID INNER JOIN dbo.ListDescriptions ON dbo.tblListSelection.selListID = dbo.ListDescriptions.ID WHERE (dbo.tblListSelection.selListID IN (@ListSelection)) AND (dbo.Contacts.StateOrProvince LIKE '%') ORDER BY dbo.Contacts.LastName">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="ListSelection" DefaultValue="1"/>
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
The selListID column is type integer in the database.
I'm using the ListBox1_selectedIndexChanged in the code behind like this where I've tried using setting my selectparameter using the label1.text value and the Requst.From(ListBox1.UniqueID) value with the same result:
Protected Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim Item As ListItem
For Each Item In ListBox1.Items
If Item.Selected Then
If Label1.Text <> "" Then
Label1.Text = Label1.Text + Item.Value + ","
Else
Label1.Text = Item.Value + ","
End If
End If
Next
Label1.Text = Label1.Text.TrimEnd(",")
SqlDataSourceAll.SelectParameters("ListSelection").DefaultValue = Request.Form(ListBox1.UniqueID)
End Sub
What am I doing wrong here? Thanks!

Is there a way to retreive the SQL Statement with the values from the parameters merged together? I know how to retreive the SQL Select Statement and the parameters separately but I need to retreive the final SQL.
For example:
SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id = @id
I would like to retreive from SQLDataSource
SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id = 1
Thank you

If I try to run the code below, and even one of the values in the INNER
JOIN statements is NULL, the DataReader ends up with zero rows.
What I need is to see the results even if one or more of INNER JOIN
statements has a NULL value. For example, if I want info on
asset# 2104, and there's no value in the DriverID field, I need the
rest of the data to display and just have the lblDriverName by
blank. Is that possible?

Hello to all,
i have a problem with IN-Operator. I cann't resolve it. I hope that somebody can help me.
I have a IN_Operator sql query like this, this sql query can work. it means that i can get a result 3418:
declare @IDM int;
declare @IDO varchar(8000);
set @IDM = 3418;
set @IDO = '3430'
select *
from wtcomValidRelationships as A
where (A.IDMember = @IDM) and ( @IDO in (3428 , 3430 , 3436 , 3452 , 3460 , 3472 , 3437 , 3422 , 3468 , 3470 , 3451 , 3623 , 3475 , 3595 , 3709 , 3723 , 3594 , 3864 , 3453 , 4080 ))
but these numbers (3428 , 3430 , 3436 , 3452 , 3460 , 3472 , 3437 , 3422 , 3468 , 3470 , 3451 , 3623 , 3475 , 3595 , 3709 , 3723 , 3594 , 3864 , 3453 , 4080 ) come from a select-statement. so if i use select-statement in this query, i get nothing back. this query like this one:select *
from wtcomValidRelationships as A
where (A.IDMember = @IDM) and ( @IDO in (select B.RelationshipIDs from wtcomValidRelationships as B where B.IDMember = @IDM))
I have checked that man can use IN-Operator with select-statement. I don't know why it doesn't work with me. Could somebody help me? Thanks
I use MS SQL 2005 Server Management Stadio Express
Thanks a million and Best regards

I'm building a textbox with search functionality towards SQL 2000.
The textbox is to include various search phrases, like "phrase1 phrase2 phrase3". Sort of like search engines where all words are considered. Do keep in mind that it's SQL2000 and not 2005. I've got all the strings I want to perform the search against in one column but various values in this column.
The only thing I've come up with is to create "WHERE columnName LIKE @phrase1 OR columnName LIKE @phrase2" where I inject % as apropiate and chop up the string, but I'm hoping this is not the solution because it doesn't seem really clean (with 10 search words) and today I'm not having a 'bad-hack' day so I want it better.
Whats is the best way of doing this?
Cheers!
