I need help figuring out how to consolidate duplicate records. For example We have a termed client same info until you get to the number of live because they are different. How can I take a both these lines and have them combined. There are other clients that are dups too. Please help if you can.

I have a table (thanks to r937 and others) that list the 3 closest stores to each customer. I now want to take this data and 'group by' the customer so it shows only one record with the 3 closest stores in separate fields within the record. I am still new with SQL so if this is not possible or extremely easy, i apologize. Thanks in advance.
What it looks like now:
Code:
Cust# ClosestStore
customer1 508
customer1 604
customer1 414
customer2 579
customer2 987
customer2 417
customer3 751
customer3 487
customer3 113
What I want it to look like:
Code:
Cust # closestStore1 closestStore2 closestStore3
Customer1 508 604 414
Customer2 579 987 417
Customer3 751 487 113
Let's say I have two tables:CREATE TABLE dbo.OldTable(OldID int NOT NULL,OldNote varchar(100) NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOANDCREATE TABLE dbo.NewTable(NewID int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1, 1),OldID int NULL,ComboNote varchar(255) NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOALTER TABLE dbo.NewTable ADD CONSTRAINTPK_NewTable PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED(NewID) ON [PRIMARY]GOOldTable's data looks like this:OldID OldNote----- -------1 aaa2 bbb3 ccc2 ddd4 eeeNewTable's data (which is derived from the OldTable) should look likethis:NewID OldID ComboNote----- ----- ---------1 1 aaa2 2 bbb + char(13) + ddd3 3 ccc4 4 dddHow can I combine the notes from OldTable where two (or more) recordshave the same OldID into the NewTable's ComboNote?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am about to move 8 SQL 2000 clusters instances residing on 2 seperate MCS clusters (4 instances each with 2 nodes each active/passive) to one single MCS cluster (2 nodes active/passive). The SQL Cluster VMs will have the same DNS names and IPs, however the MCS VM and nodes will have different names.
The planned method for moving the DBs is just to stop all SQL services copy the system and user MDF and LDF files and then restart SQL. From everything I have read this should be fine. However here are my concerns on a cluster platform:
Will the change in node names on the target cluster be a problem when moving the master DBs over from source SQL VMs? Are the cluster nodes listed somewhere in the Master DB?
A couple of the SQL instance VMs are invovled in transactional replication. If all of the SQL files are copied over and the target VM has the same DNS and IP name, will there be a problem with the transactional replication when SQL is restarted?
Thanks,

I'm using a query to see how many times an action was recorded on a person. The query works, it returns this:
John Smith 1
John Smith 1
John Smith 1
Jane Doh 1
Jane Doh 1
Al Johnson 1
but I need it to return totals like this
John Smith 3
Jane Doh 2
Al Johnson 1
This is the query I am using:
Select Player.First_Name, Player.Last_Name, COUNT(Action.Employee_ID)

PlayerVisit on PlayerVisit.Player_ID = Player.Player_ID

join Action on Treatment.Action_ID = Action.Action_ID
group by Player.First_Name, Player.Last_Name, Action.Employee_Id;
Hello All,
I have some groups set up in a matrix that basically group by transaction names. I am trying to consolidate all but one into the same group. Right now I have the expression of...
Code Snippet
=iif(Fields!TestName.Value="Name Search","Name Search","Logon Function")
this consolidates the aggregate results and group fine but it does not label the groups as expected. "Name Search" comes up as "Name Search" but instead instead of "Logon Function", It displays the rolled up group as the name of the fist group field. Is there a way to make an alias inside of an expression?
In many of my packages I have to translate an organizational code into a surrogate key. The method for translating is rather convoluted and involves a few lookup tables. (For example, lookup in the OrgKey table. If there is a match, use that key; if not, do a lookup of the first 5 characters in the BUKey table. If there is a match, use that key; if not, do a lookup of the first 2 characters... You get the idea.)
Since many of my packages use this same logic, I would like to consolidate it all into one custom transformation. I assume I can do this with a script transform, but then I'd lose all the caching built into the lookup transforms.
Should I just bite the bullet, and copy and paste the whole Rube Goldberg contraption of cascading lookup transforms into each package? Or is there a better solution I'm overlooking?
I am having a bit of a problem over here. I am trying to consolidate dates from multiple records into a time line that has no date overlap. I'll give you an example to make things clear.Let's say I have 3 data records:RowID BeginDate EndDate Price ($)----------------------------------------------------1 01/01/2008 01/10/2008 1.002 01/05/2008 01/15/2008 2.003 12/20/2007 02/01/2008 1.50 The result I would like to see should look like this: 12/20/2007 - 12/31/2007 the price was 1.5001/01/2008 - 01/10/2008 the price was 2.50 because row 1 and 3 overlap.01/05/2008 - 01/15/2008 the price was 3.50 because row 2 and 3 overlap.01/16/2008 - 02/01/2008 the price was 1.50 because of the row 3. Any idea on how I can automate generation of this data?I have a lot of code written for that but I can't get the result I want.I don't know if someone wants to see my code, I got around 500 lines of it.I would appreciate any help with this.Thanks!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was messing around with stored procedures and I was wondering if creating a SP that populates a single table for reporting is a good idea?
I have ~10 queries that I have to currently run manually and was hoping to drop them into a physical table and then leverage that single table to pull into excel.
Some of my queries use virtual tables or CTE's, this is to get the aggregate set correctly.
Essentially I am working out of a data warehouse and would like to eventually get all my queries in one SP or something similar and then call that query for a insert.
Speaking of which could you create a SP that has several selects than with that output drops the records into a single table by using an insert into query so the data from the all the queries would line up into the right columns?
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT LEFT([REPORTING_MONTH], 4)+'-'+SUBSTRING([REPORTING_MONTH],5,6) as REPORTING_MONTH, t.EMPLOYEE,
'' as COUNT_FTP,
CASE WHEN [MEDIUM_RCVD] = 'EMAIL' THEN COUNT(MEDIUM_RCVD) ELSE '' END AS COUNT_EMAIL
FROM [GPO].[dbo].[DW_SUBMISSION] as s
JOIN #TEMPActivity as t
[Code] ....
I'm trying to get the set to come out all on one line. REPORTING_MONTH, EMPLOYEE, COUNT_FTP, COUNT_EMAIL
But when I try null or '' it creates a second record and doesn't merge the two results.
I'm not quite sure if this is the correct forum to post this, if not please advise where should I post.
I have 7 databases with same structure, but different data in it, I need to have a query to consolidade some info from all of them in one report, is it possible just in onw script? how should I do it?

PS: I'm a beguinner in this so I apologize if the question seems stupid, or wrong.
Hi,
for some AP issue, the file I upload must be without the line feed/carriage return in the last line.
for example:
original fixed-length file (exported from SSIS)
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
4 <-- with line feed/carriage return in the last line
The file format that AP request. The file only has 3 records, so it should end in the third line.
line NO DATA
1 AA123456 50 60
2 BB123456 30 40
3 CC123456 80 90
Should I use script component to do it ? I am new for VB . Anyone would help me ?
Thank you all.
I need the Trend line for the following data in Line chart they are the following data. The following are the graph are my output and i need the trend line for these Key_gap value.

I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum (forgive me if I'm not) since I'm not sure if this is an issue with inserting an item into a db or the processing of what I get out of it. I wrote a basic commenting system in which someone my post a comment about something written on the site. I wanted to keep it very simple, but I at least want the ability for a user to have newlines in their comment without having to hardcode a <br /> or something like that. Is there a way for me to detect a newline if someone, for example, is going to their next paragraph?
Let me know if you need a better explanation.
Thanks in advance!

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a line graph which plots the actual data points (x,y), everything is working fine with this graph. Now we need to add a trend line to this existing graph after going thro. the articles we came to know that there is no direct option in SSRS to draw a trend line. So we need to calculate the trend values ourselves which we need to plot as atrend line. This trend line is similar to the trend line which comes in Excel chart, do anyone know how to calculate the trend values from the actual data points. We got through several formulas, but were not clear, have anyone tried out exactly the same, if so please help us out by providing an example to calculate the trend values.

Hi,
When creating a line chart, I would like to be able to show Markers for the data points, but no line between these points (as you can do in excel).
I have set the line setting to none (for the lines of interest), however the lines still show.
Is this a bug, or am i missing something obvious settings-wise?
Cheers,

Anyone have any idea how to make a line style dashed or dotted in a line chart please?
If I change the series style to dashed or dotted it still appears as a solid line, yet the legend displays a dashed or dotted line....
Thanks
My question is about coding style for specifying constraints when creating tables.
Two styles for defining constraints:
In-line:
CREATE TABLE Fruit
(
FruitID INT IDENTITY(1,1)
CONSTRAINT PK_fruit PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED,
FruitName NVARCHAR(50),
FruitTypeID INT
CONSTRAINT FK_fruit_fruit_types FOREIGN KEY
REFERENCES FruitTypes (FruitTypeID) ON UPDATE CASCADE,
DateCreated DATETIME DEFAULT GETDATE()
)
Out-of-line:
CREATE TABLE Fruit
(
FruitID INT,
FruitName NVARCHAR(50),
FruitTypeID INT,
DateCreated DATETIME
)
ALTER TABLE Fruit ALTER COLUMN FruitID INT NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE Fruit ADD
CONSTRAINT PK_fruit PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (FruitID),
CONSTRAINT FK_fruit_fruit_types FOREIGN KEY (FruitTypeID)
REFERENCES FruitTypes (FruitTypeID),
CONSTRAINT DF_fruit_date_created DEFAULT
GETDATE() FOR DateCreated
Which style do you prefer and why?
Hi
If i use this code i cant get the data showed, it show nothing."SELECT COUNT(DogImageDate) AS Amount, DogImageDate, DogImageID FROM EnggaardImages WHERE DogImageDate NOT LIKE (SELECT TOP 1 DogImageDate FROM EnggaardImages ORDER BY DogImageDate DESC;) GROUP BY DogImageDate ORDER BY DogImageDate DESC;"
But if i use this code i get data showed"SELECT COUNT(DogImageDate) AS Amount, DogImageDate, DogImageID FROM EnggaardImages GROUP BY DogImageDate ORDER BY DogImageDate DESC;"
Then i get Images(6)Images(1)Images(1)
But i dont want the first to be showed, therefor i use the Select TOP 1, so i get a look like this
Images(1)Images(1)
But i cant get it to work.
Hello all
Trying to delete some data from a SSCE (2005) DB produces the exception:
SqlCeException
There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 43,Token in error = C]
Here is the code I am using
string dsc = Application.StartupPath + "\FCDB07.sdf";
conn = new SqlCeConnection("DataSource = " + dsc);
conn.Open();
cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "DELETE FROM DataContainer WHERE FileName =" + dgContainers[0, SelRowIndex].Value.ToString();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); //There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 43,Token in error = C ]
conn.Close();
Any Idea on What causes this?

Hey all-
I'm trying to insert some values into an SQL Compact database on a WM6 device but there is something apparently wrong with my SQL statement...
The program is going to allow users to schedule an SMS message to be sent at a certain date and time. I'm using a database to keep track of the scheduled SMS messages. The database has 3 rows: phone number, message, and the date/time to be sent.
Here is the relevent code:
private void scheduleMenu_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//connect to DB and do our scheduling magic
string message = messageBox.Text; //should rename messageBox...
string phoneNum = phoneNumBox.Text;
string dataBase = @"Program FilesSMS_Scheduler2SMSDatabase.sdf";
//SqlCeEngine eng = new SqlCeEngine(dataBase);
SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source=" + dataBase);
conn.Open();
//insert phone number, message text, and date/time into DB
string cmd = "INSERT INTO Scheduler(phoneNum, message, date) VALUES("+ phoneNum + ", "+ message + ", "+ dateTimePicker1.Value +")";
SqlCeCommand cmdPhone = new SqlCeCommand(cmd,conn);
cmdPhone.ExecuteNonQuery(); //error occures here...
messageBox.Text = "";
MessageBox.Show("Message Scheduled!");
}
I'm guessing it doesn't like how I am trying to get the data from the different text boxes and the DateTimePicker to go inside the SQL command. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix my SQL command or how to get data from a textbox and DateTimePicker to be inserted into a database a different way?
Hi, i've got a table which holds a field called order.
Let's say it looks like this
ItemId Name Order
223 test 1 1
542 test 5 34
23 test 2 4
676 test 123 2
I'm building a website, which gets the records by the right order.
So it displays this on the website:
test 1
test 123
test 2
test 5
Now, I'm building a up/down function.
So when I click down on 'test 123' it should swap the order with 'test 2'
So the database will look like this:
ItemId Name Order
223 test 1 1
542 test 5 34
23 test 2 2
676 test 123 4
And the website will look like this:
test 1
test 2
test 123
test 5
And it should also work the other way around with the up button.
So my guess is, I have the order of the item I clicked on (2) and I should get the order of the previous or next record (depending on which button I clicked).
So how would I do that?

Hi,
I just started at a client's site and have found that the Books On Line has been removed (all other items are there in the program group instead of BOL). Is there a site at microsoft that mimicks BOL? (sybase has a 'sybooks on the web' which mimicks their 'Sybooks' product documentation.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello!
I have the database out of line, but it doesn't have suspect status.
As I know in SQL Server 6.5 I can run sp_marksuspect stored procedure
for this database and then try to reset suspect status. But I didn't find
sp_marksuspect in SQL Server 7.0. Do you know something about changes for 7.0
and do you have idea what should I do to put database back on line. I can even drop it to recreate and restore.
Thank you,
