Converting IIF In Access Query To SQL Server

Jul 20, 2005

I am trying to upsize a database to SQL server (on which I am a novice). In
Access as part of a much more complex query I had the following (from sql
view)

SELECT
IIf(InStr([ItemName],"*")>0,Left([ItemName],InStr([ItemName],"*")-1),[ItemNa
me]) AS ShortName FROM corp_info

Which gives a return value for the whole of ItemName if there is no star in
it, or the portion up to the star if there is a star

I am having a nightmare trying to get an equivalent in SQL server. I've
worked out that Instr is charindex in sql and can adjust for that, but can't
work out how to get a conditional select statement working.

It may well be obvious, but any help much appreciated. Thanks.

Update SQL 2000 Query (converting An Old Access 2k Query To SQL)

Mar 30, 2006

Hello, I have the following query in Access 2000 that I need to convertto SQL 2000:UPDATE tblShoes, tblBoxesSET tblShoes.Laces1 = NullWHERE (((tblShoes.ShoesID)=Int([tblBoxes].[ShoesID])) AND((tblBoxes.Code8)="A" Or (tblBoxes.Code8)="B"))WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;The ShoesID in the tblShoes table is an autonumber, however the recordsin the tblBoxes have the ShoesID converted to text.This query runs ok in Access, but when I try to run it in the SQLServer 2000 Query Analizer I get errors because of the comma in the"UPDATE tblShoes, tblBoxes" part. I only need to update the tblShoesfield named Laces1 to NULL for every record matching the ones in thetblBoxes that are marked with an "A" or an "B" in the tblBoxes.Code8field.Any help would be greatly appreciated.JR

Converting Query From Access

Dec 6, 2007

Hi,I would like some help converting an access query to a SQL Server query.The access query is made up of the following and then repeated for each field:SELECT Sum(IIf([gender]='Female',1,0)) AS Female, Sum(IIf([gender]='Male',1,0)) AS Male...FROM dbo.applicants I have tried using the following to test out an alternative, but it brings back the incorrect figure:SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN gender = 'Female' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS FemaleFROM dbo.applicants I've looked at the table and should get back 350, but only get back 193.But using the following query I get the correct figure:SELECT COUNT(gender) AS FemaleFROM applicantsGROUP BY genderHAVING (gender = 'Female') Although I can't use the above query because I want to also count how many 'Male' applicants there are.How can I do this?Thanks

Error In Query Converting From Access To SQL

Dec 7, 1999

Hi,

I'm using a database through ODBC in an application designed on Macromedia Drumbeat 2000, and use the following query for one of the segments:

SELECT DISTINCTROW Books.ISBN, Books.Title, Books.Category, Books.Description, Books.Price, Books.Pubdate, Books.Keywords, Books.UnitWeight, Authors.au_lastname, Authors.au_firstname, Authors.au_midname, Publishers.pub_name, Books.Pub_No
FROM Publishers INNER JOIN (Authors INNER JOIN Books ON Authors.au_id = Books.Au_No) ON Publishers.pub_id = Books.Pub_No

It works fine if I use the MS Access version of the database through ODBC, but if I try using the SQL version, I get the following error for this query:

Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '.'. Statement(s) could not be prepared.

Why on earth is this happenning? I'm completely at my wits end...and pointers would be wonderful.

Thanks...

Converting Access App To Sql Server

Dec 14, 2005

Hope this makes sense.
I am trying to convert an Access based blog app to SQL Server but I'm having some trouble with some SQL.

The sql is as follows:
SELECT *, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tblComment WHERE tblComment.blogID = tblBlog.BlogID AND tblComment.commentInclude <> 0) AS TOTAL_LINKS
FROM joinBlog
WHERE BlogIncluded <> 0
ORDER BY BlogID DESC

The access version returns blog entries & the number of comments posted to each entry.

joinBlog is an Access query:
SELECT tblBlog.BlogID, tblBlog.CatID AS tblBlog_CatID, tblBlog.BlogHeadline, tblBlog.BlogHTML, tblBlog.BlogDate, tblBlog.BlogIncluded, tblCategory.catID AS tblCategory_catID, tblCategory.catName
FROM tblCategory RIGHT JOIN tblBlog ON tblCategory.catID = tblBlog.CatID;

I assume I need to make a view out of the Access query, I have done this & that appears to work.

The problem I have is when I try the 1st sql that is in my page with sql server I get the following error:
The column prefix 'tblBlog' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query.

I can make the following change which returns data but does not attach the blog comment counts to the proper blog entry, instead it returns the total comments in the query:
SELECT *, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tblComment,tblBlog WHERE tblComment.blogID = tblBlog.BlogID AND tblComment.commentInclude <> 0) AS TOTAL_LINKS
FROM joinBlog
WHERE BlogIncluded <> 0
ORDER BY BlogID DESC

Can anyone tell me how to convert this for SQL Server? This is my 1st access to sql server attempt.
Thanks.

SQL Server 2012 :: Converting Query Output To HTML Format

Mar 23, 2015

I am working on a code that will convert the query output into a html query output. That is the output of the query will be along with html tags so that we can save it as a html file.

The stored procedure that i have used is downloaded from symantec website and is working fine. Below is the code of that stored procedure.

/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] Script Date: 12/21/2011 09:04:30 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Table2HTML] (
@TABLENAME NVARCHAR(500),
@OUTPUT NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT,

[Code] ....

The code works fine and i am able to get the output with html tags. The problem occurs when i insert stylesheet in the code. I tried to enforce styles using a stylesheet for the table returned in my sql code, so that it will look good. below is the stylesheet code that i inserted between <head> and </head> tags.

<style type="text/css">table.gridtable { font-family: verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size:10px; color:#333333;border-width:1px; border-color: #666666; border-collapse: collapse; } table.gridtable td {border-width: 1px; padding: 8px; border-style: solid; border-color: #666666; background-color: #ffffff;}</style>

If I run the procedure without the style sheet code, it works fine. but when i run the procedure with style sheet code i am getting the below errors.

Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 98
Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '</table></body><'.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 98
Incorrect syntax near '</table></body><'.

[Code] .....

I checked the code and i am not able to find what is the mistake. I tried changing the quotation mark but it didn't worked.

Help With Converting Access VBA To Appropriate SSIS Solution

Help Required Converting From MS Access SQL To TSQL

May 20, 2008

Hello, I am fairly new to SQL Server so I apologise if this is the wrong forum. I have a Sales analysis table in a SQL Server 2000 database. The table is populated from various sources in our ERP system. via a DTS package For our French branch sales unit of measure is eachs (EA) for actuals, but the primary UOM and our forecast data is normally in cartons. I have a product master table which defines primary unit of measure, and a unit of measure conversion table. So if I wanted to convert the data all to the primary measure I would write the below in Access:

UPDATE (tblSalesReport INNER JOIN tblItemMasterERP ON tblSalesReport.fldProductNo = tblItemMasterERP.fldProductNo) INNER JOIN tblUOMConvertERP ON (tblItemMasterERP.fldShortItemNo = tblUOMConvertERP.fldItemNo) AND (tblItemMasterERP.fldPrimaryUOM = tblUOMConvertERP.fldUOM1) SET tblSalesReport.fldUOM = [tblItemMasterERP]![fldPrimaryUOM], tblSalesReport.fldQuantity = [tblSalesReport]![fldQuantity]/[tblUOMConvertERP]![fldConvFactor]
WHERE (((tblSalesReport.fldCompany)="00007") AND ((tblUOMConvertERP.fldUOM2)=[tblSalesReport]![fldUOM]) AND (([tblSalesReport]![fldUOM])<>[tblItemMasterERP]![fldPrimaryUOM]));

I have found that in the DTS I can add an SQL task, but it seems to only allow UPDATE if there are no joined tables. I found the same thing in Stored Procedures, the SQL designer would only allow me to use one table. I guess I am looking in the wrong places. Can anyone point me in the right direction to incorporate the above sql (or equivolent) into our DTS package. Unfortunately the company decided to dispense with the services of the person who designed the package.

Problems Converting Data From MS Access To MSSQL

Oct 15, 2007

Hi All,

I am converting an old MS Access database to MSSQL. While I do get some data into MSSQL, some weird things are happening that are beyond my capabilities.

The database I am trying to convert exists of several tables. The first few are converted perfectly, but one of the last is giving difficulties. What I do is:
SET @SQLQuery = 'INSERT INTO TableName ( ' +
'[field1], ' +
'[field2], ' +
'[field3], ' +
'[field4], ' +
'[Date], ' +
'[field6]) ' +
'SELECT ' +
'[field1], ' +
'[field2], ' +
'[field3], ' +
'[field4], ' +
'[Date], ' +
'[field6]) ' +
' FROM '+ RTRIM(@LinkedServerName) +'...TableName'

EXEC (@SQLQuery)

I do the same for each table, all with their own TableNames and field names. 80% of the tables have a date field, which is of type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP in Access and datetime in MSSQL.

As mentioned: the first tables are converted perfectly, however one fails with error message:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 8, Server XXXXXX, Line 1
Error converting data type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP to datetime.

If I leave the date field out of the query for that table, it all works (obviously, with an empty date column). The weird thing is that most of the other tables have a date column as well, they are the same data types as in this column and the conversion query is very similar as well.

I have Googled on the full error message and on DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP alone, but all results I get seem different to what I have. I have tried using convert to put the date in the correct format (format in the date tables is DD-MM-YYYY), but this doesn't help. Would have been funny if it had helped, as all other tables use the same date format, and according to the specs, DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP should be automatically converted to datetime anyway (which in all other tables works)...

Basically, what I am saying is: I have 8 extremely similar tables, which I all try to convert using the exact same method, 7 tables succeed and one fails...

Thanks in advance for your help!

Converting Stored Procedures Back To MS Access Queries

We decided to create the stored procedures into queries, would this be the best idea and if so does anyone know if there is a freeware software that can do this or will I have to painstakingly re-create the queries?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
