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.
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) from Player INNER JOIN PlayerVisit on PlayerVisit.Player_ID = Player.Player_ID join Treatment on Treatment.Visit_ID = PlayerVisit.Visit_ID join Action on Treatment.Action_ID = Action.Action_ID group by Player.First_Name, Player.Last_Name, Action.Employee_Id;
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!
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.

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?
I 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?
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...
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 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?
thanks,
Marcus
PS: I'm a beguinner in this so I apologize if the question seems stupid, or wrong.
JobRequirements (A) JobID int QualificationTypeID int
EmployeeQualifications (B) EmployeeID int QualificationTypeID int
Employee (C) EmployeeID int EmployeeName int
I need to return a list of all employees fit for a specific job ... The criteria is that only employees who have all the JobRequirements are returned. So if a job had 3 requirements and the employee had just 2 of those qualifications, they would not be returned. Likewise, the employee might have more qualifications than the job requires, but unless the employee has all the specific qualifications the job requires they are not included. If an employee has all the job qualifications plus they have extra qualifications then they should be returned...
How to only return those records where all the child records are present in the other table..
I am using sql server 2005. I stuck out in a strange problem. I am using view in my stored procedure, when I run the stored procedure some of the rows get skipped out means if select query have to return 10 rows then it is returning 5 rows or any other but not all, also the records displyaing is randomly coming, some time it is displaying reords 12345 next time 5678, other time 2468.
But if I run seperately the querys written in SP then it returns all the rows. Please give me solution why it is happening like this.
There are indexes in the tables.
Once I shrink the database and rebuild the indexes, from then this problem is happening. I have rebuild the indexes several time, also updated the statistics but nothing improving.
When expoting data from excel to sql server table, using SSIS package, after exporting is done, how would i check source rows are equal to destination rows. If not to throw an error message.
How can we handle transactions in SSIS 1. when some error/something happens during export and the # of rows are not exported fully to destination, how to rollback the transaction in SSIS.
I have a conditional split in an SSIS package - one split is where if rows are returned according to a specific rule, then insert those rows into to a Recordset Destinationm which points to a variable of Object type.
How I can use this variable to email fellow users. For example, what I would like is if ANY rows are returned to the Object variable (1 or more), then I would like to execute an email SP that we have on our server.

Hello, I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row: user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3 For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer): user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3 How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row Thanx,Danny.
Hi i tried designing a SSIS package which loads only those rows which were different from existing rows in the table , i need to timestamp the existing row with an inactive date when a update of that row is inserted (ex: same studentID ) and the newly inserted row with a insert time stamp so as to indicate the new row as currently active, in short i need to maintain history and current rows in same table , i tried using slowly changing dimension but could not figure out, anyone experience or knowledge regarding the Data loads please respond.
example of Data would be like
exisiting data
StudentID Name AGE Sex ADDRESS INSERTTIME UPDATETIME 12 DDS 14 M XYZ ST 2/4/06 NULL 14 hgS 17 M ABC ST 3/4/07 NULL
New row to insert would be
12 DDS 15 M DFG ST 4/5/07
the data should reflect
StudentID Name AGE Sex ADDRESS INSERTTIME UPDATETIME 12 DDS 14 M XYZ ST 2/4/06 4/5/07
12 DDS 15 M DFG ST 4/5/07 NULL
14 hgS 17 M ABC ST 3/4/07 NULL
Please provide your input as much as you can even though it might not be a 100% solution.
I had created a trigger which sees that whether a database is updated if it is its copy the values of the updated row into another control table now I want to read the content of control_table into BIzTalk and after reading I want to delete it.Can any one suggest the suitable ay to do this?
I have the following variables VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime, OdometerReading, TransactCity, TransactState.
VehicleID is the unique vehicle ID, OdometerReading is the Odometer Reading, and the others are information related to the transaction time and location of the fuel card (similar to a credit card).
The records will be first grouped and sorted by VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime and OdometerReading. Then all records where the Vehicle ID and TransactDate is same for consecutive rows, AND TransactCity or TransactState are different for consecutive rows should be printed.
I also would like to add two derived variables.
1. Miles will be a derived variable that is the difference between consecutive odometer readings for the same Vehicle ID.
2. TimeDiff will be the second derived variable that will categorize the time difference for a particular vehicle on the same day.
My report should look like:
VehID TrDt TrTime TimeDiff Odometer Miles TrCity TrState 1296 1/30/2008 08:22:42 0:00:00 18301 000 Omaha NE 1296 1/30/2008 15:22:46 7:00:04 18560 259 KEARNEY NE

Problem & Info:
I am bringing in an Excel file. I need to first strip out any non-detail rows such as the breaks you see with totals and what not. I should in the end have only detail rows left before I start moving them into my SQL Table. I'm not sure how to first strip this information out in SSIS specfically how down to the right component and how to actually code the component to do this based on my Excel file here: http://www.webfound.net/excelfile.xls
Then, I assume I just use a Flat File Source coponent or something to actually take the columns in the Excel and split into an OLE DB Datasource to shove each column into a corresponding column in my SQL Server Table. I have used a Flat File Source in the past to do so with a comma delimited txt file but never tried with an Excel.
Desired Help:
How to perform
1) stripping out all undesired rows 2) importing each column into sql table
I am facing an issue that Data flow task failing after loading 29000 rows out of 2lakhs rows.
I am loading data from .csv file to OLE DB Destination.
This data flow task is placed inside For each loop container.
is this issue because of any performance issue in SSIS packages such as buffer size.
find the error below:

But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view

Hi, I need to write a query which I have never attempted before and could do with some help.... I have a Groups table and a Users_Groups look up table. In this model, users can only be assigned to 1 group. If a group is deleted, a trigger should fire and delete any rows in User_Groups having a matching Groups.Ref. Unfortunately, the trigger hasn't been firing and I now have a load of defunct rows in Users_Groups relating users to groups which do not exist.I now need to find all of these defunct rows in Users_Groups so that I can delete them. How can I find rows in Users_Groups where the parent rows and refs in Groups are null? I've tried searching the net for something similar but don't even know how to word the search properly to get any half relevant results. Cheers PS, I do realise I need to tighten the constraints on my database
I'm stuck. I have a table that I want to pull some info from that I don''t know how to.
There are two colomuns, one is the call_id column which is not unique and the other is the call_status column which again is not unique. The call_status column can have several values, they are ('1 NEW','3 3RD RESPONDED','7 3RD RESOLVED','6 PENDING','3 SEC RESPONDED','7 SEC RESOLVED').
The call_id could be any number, I only want the 6 PENDING rows where there are other rows for that call_id which have either 3 3RD RESPONDED or 7 3RD RESOLVED. If someone knows how it would be a great help.

helo.. I have 100,000 rows in the database and I want to read results for eg: from 5000 to 5050 by DataReader. I wrote this code to do this but its too slow:
Dim SlctStr As String = "select * from topicstbl where partID like '" & PagePartID & "'"
Dim ReadCom As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
ReadCom.CommandText = SlctStr
ReadCom.Connection = MainLib.MyConnection
Dim MyReader As SqlClient.SqlDataReader = ReadCom.ExecuteReader()
Dim StartTNum As Long = 5000
For IR As Long = 0 To StartTNum - 1
MyReader.Read()
Next
Do While MyReader.Read
StartTNum += 1
If StartTNum > 5500 Then Exit Do
'''''''''''''''''''
Loop
MyReader.Close()
is there another way to do the same thing better off than this code?

Hi I'm having a bit troubble by creating a SQL-sentence which substract the newest row from the second newest row in the same column. The table looks like this:
What I need is that the largest "Pricecalcid" that is 3100 equals "Price" 2500 and the second largest "Pricecalcid" eqauls 2800 results in a pricecalculation that substracts 2500 from 2800 for "Itemid" 100.
