Have a View where I need to enter a conditional IF_THEN_ELSE statement in a new field (field has an alias). If this were an Access query I would do following:
IIf([dbo.AR1_CustomerMaster.EmailAddress] Is Null, "A", "B")
How can I accomplish same in View design??

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a stored procedure that performs a search function with params:@username nvarchar(50)@country nvarchar(50)and like 10 more.A user may provide values for these params optionally.So when the @username var is left blank, there should be no filtering on the username field (every field should be selected regardless of the username)Currently my statement is:select username,country from myUsers whereusername=@username and country=@countryWith this statement when a user provides no value for username the username field selects on ''m which returns ofcourse nothing...What can I do to solve this?Thanks!
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi, is it possible to do a conditional WHERE in T-SQL? I have a table with a column that consists of a reference that starts with either a single alpha character or two alpha characters followed by four numeric digits (the numeric portion is always unique but the alpha isn’t). E.g. A1234, AB1235, AB1236, C1237, HT1238. What I want to do is select a range of rows based on the numeric portion of this reference column. In other words I want to select say 50 rows starting from row 1000 (rows 1000 to 1050) regardless of whether there is one or two alpha characters preceding the numerics.The Stored procedure I have so far works (using COUNT for testing) for selecting a range of rows that has two alpha's at the start. However, if I simply add an OR to the WHERE to select rows where there is a single alpha in the reference column, when a single alpha reference is found it will fail the first logical check for two alpha's giving an error condition. Therefore, how can I incorporate a conditional WHERE using IF or some alternative method, so that it will also give me all the rows in the number sequence that start with either single or double alpha's within the same SELECT / WHERE statement?
Thanks for any help.ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Test]

Hi all,I have one for all the blackbelters out there: is there a way i canmake a stored procedure where i can control the where statement withvariables? I have to do some complex transformations to get compose afact table for MSAS and there a a lot of similarities between thequeries and a few differences because of different account methodsetc. (booking in starting date, booking stuff on order entry datesetc) I want to put a combination of different rules in differentmembers of dimensions.An example of what i mean:CREATE STORED PROCEDURE dbo.FILLFACT (@PAR1, @PAR2)ASINSERT INTO FactTable (blah blah)SELECTIF @PAR1 = 'OrderDate'SourceView.OrderdateELSESourceView.StartDate,etc etc...FROMSourceViewWHEREIF @PAR2 = 'WholeTable'1=1IF @PAR2 = 'Incomplete'EndDate IS NULL OR EXIST (SELECT * FROM Exceptions WHERE...., etc)This way i could fill my fact table withEXEC dbo.FillFact 'beginDate','Wholetable'EXEC dbo.FillFact 'begindate', 'Rulebook1'EXEC dbo.FillFact 'BeginDate', 'Exceptions'etcetera.This is not an actual SQL script i use, just an example of what i'mtalking about. Or maybe i could pass the where statement entirley as avariable? But i can't use SET @PAR1 = 'EndDate IS NULL' and then useWHERE @PAR1 can I?I hope i'm making sense. Does anyone know if this is possible? Rightnow i have a procedure that is composed of a dozen of sql scripts thatare mostly the same, but i have to copy it for every combination ofsituations and then, of course, new stuff has to be added on 12different places. Again and again.Any thoughts?TIA,Gert-Jan van der Kamp

I'm trying to gather some user statistics based on 3 conditions. First I want to check if the referring querystring is already in the database. If not insert it into the db. Second, if the querystring is already in the database, then check if the ip-address of the user is already in the database. If it is, then check if the ip address was inserted today. If not, update the "refCountIn" field with +1. The problem lies in the third condition where we check if the ip-address was inserted today and if false, update the "refCountIn" field with +1 and if true, do nothing.Below is the code I have until now: 1 Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

I'm learning SQL and here I'm trying to use two things that I'm not familiar with - IF statements and the Inserted temporary table.
Here's the background - skip this paragraph if you like. I'm working on a tasking system for the Help Desk - they get requests from the web site for various items and I break up the request into Software, Hardware, Accounts, etc tables and list the status of each item as "Requested". I'm also keeping a Tasks table to make work orders for each item requested. I've got triggers on the Accounts and Hardware tables that automatically make a new task for those items but the Software is more tricky because all software for a given request should be just one task. Software installs are all done by one person at the same time.
So I'm trying to make a trigger that creates a new Task when a new Software record is inserted. But if a task already exists with the same RequestID (meaning they requested two peices of software and this is the second one), then I just want to update the task already created. Here's what I got:
1 CREATE TRIGGER [NewSoftwareTask]
2 ON [dbo].[Software]
3 AFTER INSERT
4 AS
5 BEGIN
6
7 -- If a software task already exists for this request
8 -- then update it. Otherwise create a new task.
9
10 if exists(select TasksID
11 from Tasks
12 where Tasks.RequestsID = inserted.RequestsID and
13 TasksType = 'Software')
14 BEGIN
15 UPDATE [BGHelpdesk].[dbo].[Tasks]
16 SET [TasksDescription] = [TasksDescription] + vbcrlf + "Install " + inserted.SoftwareType + ". " + inserted.SoftwareComments
17 WHERE Tasks.RequestsID = inserted.RequestsID and
18 TasksType = 'Software'
19 END
20
21 else
22
23 BEGIN
24 INSERT INTO [BGHelpdesk].[dbo].[Tasks]
25 ([RequestsID]
26 ,[TasksType]
27 ,[TasksSubType]
28 ,[TasksTitle]
29 ,[TasksDescription])
30 SELECT
31 s.RequestsID
32 ,'Software'
33 ,s.SoftwareType
34 ,'New ' + s.SoftwareType + ' Account for Request ' + cast(s.RequestsID AS varchar)
35 ,s.SoftwareComments
36 FROM Software s join
37 inserted ON s.SoftwareID = inserted.SoftwareID
38 END
39 END
40 GO
It keeps balking at lines 12 and 17 saying "The multi-part identifier "inserted.RequestsID" could not be bound." The ELSE statement is what I use on the other tables and it works fine so the inserted temp record seems pretty straightforward but I must be doing something wrong...

Hello dbForumers,
Yet another puzzling question. I remember I saw somewhere a particular syntax to select a column based on a conditional predicate w/o using a user defined function. What I want to accomplish is this : SELECT (if column colA is empty then colB else colA) as colC from SomeTable. Possible ? Not possible? Have I hallucinated ?
Thank You!
Table with water consumption per month and customer.
I want to sum up total consumption per customer with a select statement
currently I am creating a total if the date is between two entered dates:
select sum(case when exigo_data_sync.orders.orderdate between @prevMonthStart and @prevMonthEnd then 1 else 0 end) as PrevMonthCount,
I need to check an additional column for ($1.00) or $1.00. If it contains $1.00 then proceed as normal and add to the total. If it contains ($1.00) then subtract one from the total. Any advice?
This is probably quite simple, but it isn't sticking out at me.
In a simple table with two groups, I want to conditionally set the color of the first group to red or green based upon whether ANY value for this field equals a particular string.
I know how to conditionally set the color of the field. However, the below code appears to only compare the FIRST value in Fields!myField.Value to the string "bad". I want it to return "Red" if ANY of the values for Fields!myField.Value = "bad".
Code Block=IIf(Fields!myField.Value = "bad", "Red", "Green")
myField is ouput in the detail scope if that makes any difference.
Is this possible?

Hi,I'm trying to do calculations in a SQL statement, but depending on onevariable (a.type in example) I'll need to pull another variable fromseperate tables.Here is my code thus far:select a.DeptCode DeptCode,a.Type Type,(a.ExpenseUnit / (select volume from TargetData b where b.type =a.type)) ExpenseFromcalc1 aThe problem... a.Type can be FYTD, Budget, or Target... and dependingon which one it is, I need to make b either FYTDData, TargetData, orBudgetData. I'm thinking a case statement might do the trick, but Ican't find any syntax on how to use Case in an MS SQL statement. EvenIf statements will work (if that's possible), though case would beless messy.Any suggestions would be much appriciative. Thanks...Alex.

Greetings,
After many hours search many forums and many failed experiments, I figure it's time to turn to the experts.
I need to execute a query that changes the returned data based upon a parameter's value. In my example below, the lob field contains both text values and nulls.
SELECT uniqueID, lob, xdate
FROM mytable
WHERE
CASE WHEN @myparam = 'ALL'
THEN
xdate >= '2007-09-01'
ELSE
xdate >= '2007-09-01' or
lob = @myparm
END
I've experimented with various forms of the LIKE function, checking for null/not null and keep coming up blank.
I thought about using an IF statement and creating different versions of the entire statement, however, in real-life I need to do this with four fields using four parameters (one for each field). The permutations are a little too much.
Any ideas?

Two questions:
1) I am unable to get a detail row of my table to suppress. I am using:
=Iif(IsNothing(Fields!Address2.Value), True, False)
2) I am not able to get an If/Then statement to work. I am able to use the followingl; however, ideally I would want to have multiple if/else statements:
=Iif(Fields!Taxschid.Value = "CUST", 0, Fields!Selling_Price.Value*.08)

hi
suppose that i have 2 tables:
TBCars(Keep information about one car like model,plaqueNo, owner,...)
&
TBServices(keep service information,like serviceType,serviceDate,..)
in this system, when a car for a first time enter to this system, i insert 1 record for it into TBCar, from second time, every time this car enter to system, one record inserted into TBServices(that refer to 1 record in TBCar,1-& relationship).
now i build a VIEW with these fields:
IDCar,Model,PlaqueNo,Owner,ServiceType,ServiceDate
the expected result from this view, return n record that n is number of records in TBServices. but i want 1 record in result for every car in TBCar.
in this result grid, serviceDate & serviceType is the last record inserted into TBServices.
& i want records in TBCars that dont have any child in TBServices come into my VIEW.
Is there a way to allow users to see the design view of a table withouthaving dbo permissions?Thanks

View 9 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I am trying to write a Transact-SQL statement and am having no success. I have a customers table that has some duplicate Customer Numbers in it, however the records do have a unique Reference Number. I am trying select all records that match a list of Customer Numbers but if there are more than 1 matching Customer Number I only want the one with the largest Reference Number.
My BASIC Select Statement is:
SELECT Cust_Ref_No, Customer_No, Customer_Name, Address1,
Address2, Suburb, State, Postcode, Phone
FROM Customers
WHERE Customer_No IN
(SELECT Customer_No FROM temp_Customers)
Much to my HORROR I found that what I am trying to do is simple in MS Access using the “First” Function – Such as below:
SELECT First(Cust_Ref_No) AS Cust_Ref_No, Customer_No
FROM Customers
GROUP BY Customer_No
ORDER BY First(Cust_Ref_No), Customer_No;
There appears to be no “First” Function in Transact-SQL. Is someone able to show me how to achieve the same results in Transact-SQL as I can get with MS Access (I’d HATE to think that MS Access has more functionality in querying data than SQL Server in any way at all)?
P.S. I really need to run the select statement as one step rather than splitting it up into parts.

Even though I select "Column Names" in Design View when creating a query (or view), only "* (All Columns)" appears in the table box.
In InfoPath, when I connect a combo-box, err drop down box, to the database, I am unable to connect directly to a table... no tables are shown. If I select a different database, these problems do not exist.
I can not find any setting to allow these columns to be shown in the design view or any setting that will "expose" the tables in InfoPath.
I tried creating a new database and exporting the data, tables and data, from the troubled DB to the new DB; however, the new DB exhibited the same behaviour.

I have a data model with 7 tables and I'm trying to write a stored procedure for each table that allows four actions. Each stored procedure should have 4 parameters to allow a user to insert, select, update and delete a record from the table.
I want to have a stored procedure that can accept those 4 parameters so I only need to have one stored procedure per table instead of having 28 stored procedures for those 4 actions for 7 tables. I haven't found a good example online yet of conditional logic used in a stored procedure.
Is there a way to add a conditional logic IF statement to a stored procedure so if the parameter was INSERT, go run this statement, if it was UPDATE, go run this statement, etc?
I have attached my data model for reference.
