Transact SQL :: Convert City Name To Upper / Lower
Jul 7, 2015In the database, most of our cities are stored in all upper case. For reporting purposes, I need to have them returned as upper/lower.  I used the below function, which works great for one word cities.  However I can’t figure out how to get it to capitalize the 1st letter of each word, for addresses containing multiple names such as Rancho Santa Margarita.Â
Upper(left(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY,1))+lower(substring(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY, 2, LEN(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY)))As ADDRESSCITY
This returns back: ‘Rancho santa margarita’; I need it to return ‘Rancho Santa Margarita’. Is this possible to do at the query level?
Convert Text Pulled From SQL Databse To UPPER And Lower, Etc
Aug 29, 2006I'm still haven't resolved the issue with displaying information from a SQL database. The text I'm displaying is in ALL CAPS in the SQL database, and I'm trying to convert it so that when I display it in gridview, The First Letter Of Each Word Is Capitalized, as apposed to ALL CAPS. I've tried the text-transform feature of CSS, but I noticed in a SQL book there are LOWER() & UPPER() string functions. The ideal thing to do then, would be to do some select statement that converts all the incoming text to lowercase, then use the CSS text-transform: capitalize , to convert the first letter of each word to caps. Basically, I need a select statement or something that converts my sql material to lowercase. Thanks.

JOIN Onto Itself And Contains The Lower Date
Jun 2, 2008Hello,
I have been having a hard time with this issue. I am attempting to join a table onto itself to get the closest date onto a single row.
What i mean is:
I have the following data
id date
1 10/07/08
2 10/06/07
3 10/06/03
4 10/06/03
the new table should have the current id and the one closes to it as so.
1 10/07/08 2 10/06/07
2 10/06/07 3 10/06/03
3 10/06/03 null null
4 10/06/03 null null
but i am getting duplicates do to the 10/06/03.
1 10/07/08 2 10/06/07
2 10/06/07 3 10/06/03
2 10/06/07 4 10/06/03
3 10/06/03 null null
4 10/06/03 null null
i want so that if there is a duplicate i can take the id thats higher. I cant figure it out.
This is my current sql:
SELECT PB.ID,PB.StartDate, PB2.ID, PB2.Startdate
from table PB
left outer join table PB2 on PB.keyID = PB2.keyID
and PB2.StartDate < PB.StartDate
and PB.StartDate = (select top(1) StartDate from table PB3 where PB.keyID = PB3.keyID
and PB2.StartDate < PB3.StartDate order by PB3.StartDate asc)
Thanks for the help.
How To Find A Lower Date
Jan 4, 2007I have following problem:table includes times for startup and end of operation as datetime fieldrelated to daily shift operations:dateid date starttime endtime458 2006-12-29 22:00 23:15458 2006-12-29 00:15 01:30459 2006-12-30 20:00 21:10459 2006-12-30 22:15 23:35459 2006-12-30 23:30 00:40459 2006-12-30 01:50 02:30records are inserted for a date related to begining of the shift, althoughsome operations are performed also past the midnight (actualy next day, ex:2006-12-31), but belongs to same shift (group)Now I need to build a function that corrects (updates) the date of everyoperation recorded after midnight to a date+1 value, so all records relatedto same groups (458, 459, etc) that starts after midnight has correct date.The procedure has to update already exiting table.Any solution?Grey
View 8 Replies View RelatedSum At A Lower Level Of Granularity
May 19, 2008Hi all,
I have a big problem with the design and the queries of a couple of tables. I have to calculate the weighted average of the number of days between an invoice and the sum of its payments (rateal payments), weighting this number with the invoice's amount, and only when the sum of the invoice's payments equal invoice amount.
I have designed two FactTables to accomplish this:
Example:
data in the fist table (FactInvoice) looks like this:
CustomerId, InvoiceDate, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 1000.00
1234567 2008-04-10 150 2000.00
and data in the second one (FactPayments) looks as below:
CustomerId, PaymentDate, InvoiceNumber, PaymentsAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 500
1234567 2008-03-15 123 500
1234567 2008-04-20 150 800
1234567 2008-04-23 150 1200
Let's suppose that I'm querying the cube for the customer 1234567, at the date 2008-05-01. I need to sum the payments for the first invoice multiplicating it for the count of days elapsed, then divide the number by the InvoiceAmount (or PaymentsAmount, is the same) : (0 days * 500‚¬ + 5 days * 500‚¬ + 10 days * 800‚¬ + 13 days * 1200)/3000‚¬ = 8,7 days of weighted average to cash an invoice.
How can I do this with Analisys Services ? Is it too complicated ? Here, in the southern Italy, the problem of customer's debit is heavily felt, and total like this are really important!
Any help or suggestion will be really appreciated.

My database is case insensitive. However, the application is case sensitive for the data in the table.
I need to find out the data from the table where the data is stored in lower case.
Here is the sample data:
Table: inv_manager
column: sku varchar(5)
Data: 1134X
1135x
1123a
b145Y
I just need query to return row 2, 3, 4.
Here is my query:

The problem is it returns all the rows from the table including first one.
How can I return just the data with lower case ?

Unique INDEX With Upper/lower Case

SQL 2012 :: Buffer Cache Size Much Lower Than Max Memory Config And Low PLE?
May 22, 2014I have a virtual server (VMware ESX) with 64GB RAM running a single instance of SQL 2012 SP1. The max memory config is set to 59392 (58GB).
The Page Life Expectancy for this server has been averaging well under 10 mins for the last few days, according to our monitoring.
I have been checking the amount of data in the buffer cache periodically during the day with the below query, which seems to show that there is never more than about 10GB of data at any one time, frequently dropping below 5GB:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS BufferPages,
CONVERT(decimal(10, 2), COUNT(*) / 128.0) AS BufferMB
FROM sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptorsWhy would the amount of cached data be so low (and cause so much churn)?
I am aware that other things will require some of that memory (plan cache etc.) but with Max Mem of 58GB, I would expect there to be a much higher amount of actual cached data at any one time. I did the same checks on another VM with the same amount of RAM/Max Mem setting, and there was 50GB of data in the cache, with PLE measured in hours.

I know direct restore is not possible, I have to use either import or export option or generating script,but i want to know is there any easy step to do so.
