Counting No Of Words In A Column

Sep 13, 2006

Hi,


for some reason, i had to write a function to count the number of words in a particular column in a table. (pl find the attachment). i would like to know whether there is any other mechanism with which we can count the number of words in a particular column.

for example, if the column data is,'This Is A Test', the function, will return 4.
pl suggest any other efficient strategies to accomplish this


thanks

Counting Multiple Values From The Same Column And Grouping By A Another Column

Sep 16, 2004

This is a report I'm trying to build in SQL Reporting Services. I can do it in a hacky way adding two data sets and showing two tables, but I'm sure there is a better way.

TheTable
Order# Customer Status

STATUS has valid values of PROCESSED and INPROGRESS

The query I'm trying to build is Count of Processed and INProgress orders for a given Customer.

I can get them one at a time with something like this in two different datasets and showing two tables, but how do I achieve the same in one query?

Select Customer, Count (*) As Status1
FROM TheTable
Where (Status = N'Shipped')
Group By Customer

 So, how many Distinct SawRunNumbers had no passing wafers? In trying to do this I've come up with:"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT SawRunNumber) AS BouleCount FROM dbWafer_Slicing WHERE (SawDate >= @MinDate) AND (SawDate <= @MaxDate) AND (Pass = 1) HAVING (COUNT(DISTINCT WaferID) > 0)" but that doenst work. It still counts records where pass = 0 for distinct SawRunNumbers even if one record within that SawRunNumber is passing. From the above sample data I should get a result of 1 not 2 or 3. Can I do this with this set of data? I'm using SQL Server 2005 EE.Thanks for your help.

Using Reserved Words In Column Names

Jan 8, 2008



Here we go,


I have a great question for all of you.

What is the problem in using reserved words in table columns name? Any one have a compeling reason not to use?

Here is an exemple:

/ ******** Table ********/
Entity
EntityId
Name


When you query this table you should use the [ ] like this:

SELECT EntityId,[Name] FROM Entity

Anyone have any objection to this, with actual facts?

The question why use this?

This about the programing object in C#

Entity oneEntity = new Entity();

oneEntity.Name = "Test Entity";

It could be:

oneEntity.EntityName = "Test Entity";


Any one???

Wildcards In Words

Apr 28, 2005

Hi I'm using the full-text indexing on a table and I'm trying to implement a search where users can search for words and use wildcards themselves. However I'm working on a method so that can enter a wildcard in the middle of a word to get records where they are unsure of the spelling etc.
For instance, a search of 'Ste*en' should return results like 'Steven' and 'Stephen' etc. So if they are searching for word 'establishment' they can search for 'estab*ment' and it should return all the records using this query:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*ment"')
If I do a wildcard at the end e.g: SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*"')
I get the results I am looking for. But the middle wildcard does not seem to work as expected even though it is the syntax used on MSDN and other SQL info sites.
Is there something I am not doing properly?

Ignored Words Nightmare!

Jan 10, 2006

Hi There,
I've created a couple of search pages which look at sql server. whenever words or values like "?@~:&£^" etc, or words like for, the and so forth, the page the nasrty error page:
Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words.
In short: is there a way I can stop it doing this. It looks rather horrible. I've looked at form validation but cant find anything that seems to fit. I would imagine there is a simple solution, but I haven't been able to find it so far.
Many thanks
Stuart

Searching For Whole Words?

Dec 21, 2005

How can you search for the occurance of a whole word in a string? but not return any results that have the word as a substring.

For instance, if I search for the term 'scene' in a column. Then it will only return rows that have the word 'scene' and not those with the word 'scenery'. I've tried the following sql, but it relies on having text either side of the word as well. If the word 'scene' is on the begining or end of the cell then it is not returned.


SELECT Name, Description
FROM tblWine
WHERE Name LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z]scene[^a-zA-Z]%'
OR Description LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z]scene[^a-zA-Z]%'


Any ideas?

Searching With Ignored Words

Oct 24, 2007

Hi,

Is it possible with SQL Server 2005 to include ignored words in a full-text search? For example, searching for "in force as of"? This gives the same results as searching for "force" only. I've tried to empty the ignored words list (noiseENG.txt), but this does not seem to have any effect.

Also we want to be able to search for strings such as "205/1305-2". Searching with punctuation characters in a query seems to be a problem.

What are the possibillities in SQL Server 2005 with regard to these problems?

Select First 10 Words

Aug 28, 2007

Can someone point me in the right direction to write a select query to return the first 10 whole words from a table?

For example, table "testtable" contains a field named "description" with value "here is some test data in order to select the first full ten words from."

The SELECT statement would return the value "here is some test data in order to select the".

Thanks in advance!

Searching For A List Of Words

Oct 21, 2005

I need to build a search function for my site. So there is a single text box for the users to type in their search string. I have been asked that I need to break the user's search string into separate words. So if the user enters: "This is my search query", I need to break it into: "This" "is" "my" "search" "query" and then search for all these words.- Can I break a string into separet words using SQL?- How do I remove funny / dangerous characters from the search string?- If I have to break the search string using a programming language, I would have to run the search query for each word. If I run the search query for each word, How do I combine the search result for the user. For instance, if I search for "my" and find some result, then search for "search" and find some results, how do I display a SINGLE search result to the user.thanks

Regular Expression For Whole Words

Feb 8, 2006

I am try to build a query which only matches whole words and so far I've got this.


Code:

SELECT *
FROM tblSearchWords
WHERE CorrectSpelling LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z0-9]blah[^a-zA-Z0-9]%'



This will return rows which contain the string 'blah' without any numeric or alphanumeric characters beside it. However it doesn't return the rows where 'blah' is either at the start or end of the string as it expects any character except a-zA-Z0-0.

Is there any way to accept string when there is nothing on either side as well?

Thanks,
Goran

Unique Words Statement

Sep 22, 2004

Hello all. I've been pulling my hair out for the last few weeks trying to come up with a statement that will do what I want. I'm hoping someone can lend some help.

Basically I have a table of articles with titles. I want to go thru the titles and find out what words show up the most. For example, if I had these two article titles in two records:

Microsoft develops new software for NASA
NASA blames software problem on Microsoft

I would get the following results - the word and the number of times it appears:

Microsoft 2
NASA 2
Software 2

The statement should ignore those words that only appear once. It would be nice to skip static words like the, and, a, etc.. (Or words 3 characters or less)

I have fulltext query enabled on the table which works great for searching, but not for what I want it to do.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

So, I'm looking for a big table of words - random, glossary terms, etc. Does anyone have anything like this? (A flat file that I can import would be fine.)

Is There A Way To Have List Of NOT Words With Containstable?

Nov 6, 2007

This works when @searchString is used in containstable (provided searchString has value)...

set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchString + ' AND ' + @searchStringNoneOfWords

This does NOT work when @searchString is used in containstable...

set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchStringNoneOfWords

I understand it is because the syntax is AND NOT, but what if I have a list of words that I do not want included? How do I start out with a NOT using containstable? It is kind of like Google's advanced search except that if you enter a word in the "without words" section with the other fields blank it would return everything under the sun except for things found with those words.
