Conditional Union Possible?
Dec 15, 2005
I'm trying to achieve something like the following:
SELECT 'page' as type, page_filename as filename, page_title as title, page_metadescription as intro
FROM tbl_pages
WHERE CONTAINS(*, @searchterm)
IF 1=1 BEGIN
UNION all
SELECT 'news' as type, 'thiswillbeafilename.asp' as filename, news_title as title, news_intro as intro
FROM tbl_news
WHERE CONTAINS(*, @searchterm)
END
IF 2=2 BEGIN
UNION ALL
SELECT 'resource' as type, resource_filename as filename, resource_longtitle as title, resource_summary
FROM tbl_resources
WHERE CONTAINS(*, @searchterm)
END
I'm pretty sure this isn't possible using the approach i have here, however is there an different method i can use to ahcieve the same effect other than using dynamic sql?
Cheers,

Is it possible to have a conditional union statement in a stored proc?Here's an example on the northwind database. If says there's a syntaxerror near the UNION statement. Looks like it doesn't like having theBEGIN directly in front of it.Is the only solution to create a dynamic sql string then call exec onit?Any help appreciated.Tom.CREATE PROCEDURE usp_test(@both int = 1)ASSET NOCOUNT ONSELECT * FROM territories WHERE regionid = 1IF @both = 1BEGINUNIONSELECT * FROM territories WHERE regionid = 2ENDGO

In this selection when there is particular segment found in the selection then need to add 2 records per segment otherwise just selected results
--Drop table #list
CREATE TABLE #LIST ( email varchar(20),Segment varchar(20), Addr1 varchar(20), City varchar(20),ST varchar(20), Code int)
--Drop table #subject
CREATE TABLE #Subject (Segment varchar(20), Fname varchar(20), LName varchar(20))
[Code] ....
---Selection results
SELECT L.Segment , l.email, l.Addr1 , l.City ,l.ST, l.code, s.Fname , s.LName into #expectedresult FROM #LIST L JOIN #Subject S ON l.Segment =s.Segment
--Now here what i am trying to get, union the below two record to the above "selection Results" for only segment ='VEC_BAL' or segment = 'PPC_BAL'
--2 records
SELECT l.segment , l.email , Addr1, City, ST, 999 as Code,'' fname, ''lname from #LIST l where email ='mmm@m.com'
SELECT l.segment , l.email , Addr1, City, ST, 888 as Code, '' fname, ''lname from #LIST l where email ='lrk@m.com'
--- expected results please execute below block ( per each segment 2 records will insert if there is segment ='VEC_BAL' or 'PPC_BAL' ). If there is no Vec_Bal or PPC BAL then no additional inserts, if there is only VEC_BAL no PPC_BAL then only 2 records insert
SELECT L.Segment , l.email, l.Addr1 , l.City ,l.ST, l.code, s.Fname , s.LName into #expctresults1 FROM #LIST L JOIN #Subject S ON l.Segment =s.Segment
union

I am writing a stored procedure that takes in a customer number, a current (most recent) sales order quote, a prior (to most current) sales order quote, a current item 1, and a prior item 1, all of these parameters are required.Then I have current item 2, prior item 2, current item 3, prior item 3, which are optional.
I added an IF to check for the value of current item 2, prior item 2, current item 3, prior item 3, if there are values, then variable tables are created and filled with data, then are retrieved. As it is, my stored procedure returns 3 sets of data when current item 1, prior item 1, current item 2, prior item 2, current item 3, prior item 3 are passed to it, and only one if 2, and 3 are omitted.I would like to learn how can I return this as a one data set, either using a full outer join, or a union all?I am including a copy of my stored procedure as it is.

SQL Server 2008 r2...
I have a query which does 3 selects and Union ALLs each to get a final result set. The performance is unacceptable - takes around a minute to run. If I remove the Union All so that the result sets are returned individually it returns all 3 from the query in around 6 seconds (acceptable performance).
Any way to join the result sets together without using Union All.
Each result set has exactly the same structure returned...
Query below [for reference]...
WITH cte AS (
SELECT A.[PoleID], ISNULL(B.[IsSpanClear], 0) AS [IsSpanClear], B.[SurveyDate], ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY A.[PoleID] ORDER BY B.[SurveyDate] DESC) rownum
FROM[UT_Pole] A
LEFT OUTER JOIN [UT_Surveyed_Pole] B ON A.[PoleID] = B.[PoleID]
[Code] .....

Hello everyone,
Is there a way in order to execute a subscribed report based on a certain criteria?
For example, let's say send a report to users when data exist on the report else if no data is returned by the query
executed by the report then it will not send the report to users.
My current situation here is that users tend to say that this should not happen, since no pertinent information is contained in the report, why would they receive email with blank data in it.
Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Larry

Hi all,
I have a Union All transformation with 4 inputs and one output when I debug the package the sum of the different inputs rows does not match the row count in output.
I don't understand, I've used the Union All transform many times and I've never seen this.
Any idea why this could happen ?

I have the following code in the color property of a textbox. However, when I run my report all of the values in this column display in green regardless of their value.
=SWITCH(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3, "Red", Fields!Wrap.Value < 3, "Green")
I already tried =iif(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3 , "Red", "Green") and got the same results.
Is it because this is a matrix report? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance . . .

Hi
I just found out that I can do an ORDER BY clause on entire records set retrieve from a query that combines several sub queries with UNION from different tables with the same structure... so this is great to know, BTW, is this a new feature of MSSQL 2K ? I don't recall being able to do this in MSSQL 7 or 6.5.
Anyway, the main question is, can I use the TOP command in a query that has UNION in it?? Meaning, there are two queries (or more) from two tables (or more) and I need to fetch the top 10 records by an ORDER BY clause from the combined results, when I try to add each sub query TOP 10 the results are not correct at all, when I try to add TOP 10 only to the first query hoping that the analyzer will refer to the whole query, it's selecting TOP 10 from the first query and combines it with all the records from the others...
So, can anyone help? I hope the problem is understood.
Thank you,
Inon.

Hi!
I am trying to join to different queries into one table ( I accomplished this)
Next I need to ADD or SUM the results of 2 rows to form a single row.
As you can see in the query below, I run 2 separate queries and use ' ' as a place holder for the UNION to work. I get duplicate rows, one with a value and the other with a '0'. I want to have a single row.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just a pet peeve....
From BOL:
By default, the UNION operator removes duplicate rows from the result set.
If you use ALL, all rows are included in the results and duplicates are not
removed.
Why is it assumed that one would want the duplicates removed by default?
Isn't that what SELECT DISINCT is for?

I was wondering if there is a way I could write this query as one query using union instead of 3 different queries?
SELECT columna as column,count(ID) as Applications
FROM tablea
GROUP columna
SELECT columna as column2, count(ID) as Approved
FROM tablesa where substring(APP_DATE,1,6) >'200304' and in 'Approved')
GROUP BY columna
SELECT columna as column3, count(ID) as Booked, sum(AMT) as amt, sum(AMT)/count(ID) as lavg
from tablea where substring(APP_DATE,1,6) >'200304' and STATUS in('book')

Hi All,
I am doing a UNION of 8 views(with 3 million rows in each view approx). I am sure that there is NO DUPLICATE data between the views. SO specifying a UNION ALL would be better than specifying a UNION in this case?
Thanks!

Hi folks,
I have a question about the performance of the following query:
(SELECT name, lastName
from Data
where salary >= 2200
)
union
(SELECT name, lastName
from Data
where salary >= 2200
) union
(SELECT name, lastName
from Data
where salary >= 2200
)
How that query works? Is it slow for a larger data? Does it do 3 queries and then combine them?
Thank you.

I want to know the top 5 patterns in sales, the report will like this:
Month Top1 Top2 Top3 Top4 Top5
2005-06 A1 A2 A3 A4 A5
2005-07 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5
2005-08 C1 C2 C3 C4 C5
--- --- ---
What I did is:
declare @StartDate and @EndDate, set @StartDate and @EndDate
Delete AAAA (AAAA is a table)
Begin
While (@EndDate<somedate)
Insert into AAAA(sales, Month, Pattern)
Select TOP 5 sales, Month,pattern from sometables order by sales DESC
increase @StartDate and @EndDate by a month
End
Select * from AAAA
It works fine. My question is: Can I get rid of table AAAA? Is there a better way that just use Top 5 combine with something say Union? ( I tried Union and failed )
Thanks in advance,

I have n Tables: T_1, T_2, ... T_n that all have the same exact fields/columns.
Ultimately, I want to search through ALL n tables and return a single table of relevant results from all tables, arranged in order by rank.
I'm not sure if this is possible. So far, I have:
1 SELECT RANK, field_1, field_2, ..., field_m FROM
2 (
3 SELECT RANK, field_1, field_2, ..., field_m FROM T_1,
4 CONTAINSTABLE(T_1, field_i,@searchText) searchTable
5 WHERE KEY = T_1.field_i
6 UNION
7 SELECT RANK, field_1, field_2, ..., field_m FROM T_2,
8 CONTAINSTABLE(T_2, field_i,@searchText) searchTable
9 WHERE KEY = T_2.field_i
10 UNION
11 .
12 .
13 .
14 UNION
15 SELECT RANK, field_1, field_2, ... field_m FROM T_n,
16 CONTAINSTABLE(T_n, field_i,@searchText) searchTable
17 WHERE KEY = T_n.field_i
18 )
19 ORDER BY RANK DESC
I haven't tried it yet, but it seems wrong. How do we actually do this?

Hi all
I'm new to SQL Server 2005 and its queries. I've created a DB that stores bonusses. For example, a person goes out with usually 4 other people, and does their work. The first person is the engineer, the second is the team leader, and the third and forth is the helpers. According to the number of notes they capture for that day, they get a bonus. if 3 notes has been done for the day, the enigeer gets 100 bucks per note, aka 300 bucks - 3 * 100 = 300. the team leader gets half of it, 150, and the helpers get each half of that, 75 and 75.
in a select query i did the match/calculation
now i want to add everything up to get a total, 300+150+75+75 - how does one do it, and write it to a table? Note: The amount of people can change, the role of the person can change, so a helper can be a team leader or engineer as well, and the amount also changes depending on performance.DECLARE @BonusID int;
SET @BonusID = '1';
SELECT bd.BonusDetailID, bd.BonusID, u.Name, u.Surname, r.Role, b.Notes * a.Amount AS Total, bd.DateModified
FROM tblBonusDetails AS bd INNER JOIN
tblBonusses AS b ON bd.BonusID = b.BonusID INNER JOIN
tblUsers AS u ON bd.UserID = u.UserID INNER JOIN
tblAmounts AS a ON b.AmountID = a.AmountID INNER JOIN
tblRoles AS r ON bd.RoleID = r.RoleID
WHERE (bd.BonusID = @BonusID) AND (r.Role = 'Surveyor')
UNION
SELECT bd.BonusDetailID, bd.BonusID, u.Name, u.Surname, r.Role, (b.Notes * a.Amount)/2 AS Total, bd.DateModified
FROM tblBonusDetails AS bd INNER JOIN
tblBonusses AS b ON bd.BonusID = b.BonusID INNER JOIN
tblUsers AS u ON bd.UserID = u.UserID INNER JOIN
tblAmounts AS a ON b.AmountID = a.AmountID INNER JOIN
tblRoles AS r ON bd.RoleID = r.RoleID
WHERE (bd.BonusID = @BonusID) AND (r.Role = 'Team Leader')
UNION
SELECT bd.BonusDetailID, bd.BonusID, u.Name, u.Surname, r.Role, ((b.Notes * a.Amount)/2)/2 AS Total, bd.DateModified
FROM tblBonusDetails AS bd INNER JOIN
tblBonusses AS b ON bd.BonusID = b.BonusID INNER JOIN
tblUsers AS u ON bd.UserID = u.UserID INNER JOIN
tblAmounts AS a ON b.AmountID = a.AmountID INNER JOIN
tblRoles AS r ON bd.RoleID = r.RoleID
WHERE (bd.BonusID = @BonusID) AND (r.Role = 'Helper')
ORDER BY Total DESC
