Counting Duplicate Values

Nov 12, 2004

I know this question has been asked before but this is a little different and I can't seem to get my head around it right now.
What i have is a table like so:

ID1 ID2 DESC
100 24 something1
100 24 this is a test
100 24
100 25 somethingelse
101 36 something
101 37 something else altogether

What i need is to determine which ID1 value has the same ID2 value listed more than once WITH the description filled in. If there is no description filled in even though the ID2 may be listed twice on one ID1, then it's ok and don't want it displayed in the query.

So, in this case, ID1 of 100 has ID2 24 listed twice with a description on both ID2's (of 24). this is what I need to show up in the query like so:

ID1 ID2 DESC
100 24 something1
100 24 this is a test

Could someone give me a hand with this? I've found similiar problems...but haven't been able to apply those answers to this.

Thx

but for all the datarow
(he has more than one BeginDate and EndDate (for each job he has one))

SQL XML :: Server Is Removing First Character Of Values If It Is A Space

Jun 3, 2015

I'm creating a table using a XML string and a stored procedure to the SQL Server. I'm having problems in just one field, it is a nvarchar(10) type. This field's string XML Schema is also nvharchar(10) type. It is called CodCanalPrice.

Today, the only values this field can assume are AA or BB or CC, (...), ZZ or (space)A, (space)B, (...), (space)C. Note that (space) is actually a space character. They all have 2 characters.

The XML data string of one data row is showed below:

<row id="1" (...many fields...) CodCanalPrice=" A" />

When the statement is executed, SQL server removes the first space (so in this case it is updated to A without space in the table). The others values that don't have an space before like AA or BB are updated fine. All others fields are also updated correctly.

So far I tried to replace the first space for   but SQL Server doesn't accept this tag.

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

I have the following scenario, The contents of main file are like :

And I need the output in the following form:

ServerCentral=forum=is=the=best
so=be=on=it

The logic being that multiple and consecutive occurrences of the special character, here - pipe , should be replaced by a single special character.

Read Chinese Character From SQL(SQL Server 2005) Database Table Column And Display Chinese Character

Feb 1, 2008

Hi!

I have a table like this below and it doesn't only contain English Names but it also contain Chinese Name.
CREATE TABLE Names
(FirstName NVARCHAR (50),
LastName NVARCHAR (50));
I tried to view the column using SQL Query Analyzer, It didn't display Chinese Character.
I know that SQL Server 2005 is using UCS-2 Encoding and Chinese Character uses Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) Encoding.
I want to read the FirstName and LastName columns and display in Window Form Data Grid and ASP.NET Grid View.
I tried to use this code below and it didn't work. It convert some of the English Name to Chinese Character and it display the chinese character and some still in the original unreadable characters.
Does anybody know how to read those character from SQL Table and display the correct Chinese Character without converting the English Name into Chinese also?
Thanks

int codePage = 950;
StringBuilder message = new StringBuilder();
Encoding targetEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(codePage);
byte[] encodedChars= targetEncoding.GetBytes(str);
.
message.AppendLine("Byte representation of '" + str + "' in Code Page '" + codePage + "':");
for (int i = 0; i < encodedChars.Length; i++)
{
message.Append("Byte " + i + ": " + encodedChars);
}

message.AppendLine(" RESULT : " + System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetString(encodedChars));
Console.Writeline(message.ToString());

Counting In SQL

Oct 24, 2007



I am working on writing a query to use with Reporting Services where I am pulling grades from a school grade book trying to see what students qualify for Honor Roll.
I have one Honor Roll done but am still working on the other. The qualifications I am trying to get is that a student has a gpa >3.0 and can have one C grade. I've got the 3.0 and the C's down but how to get the query to pull anyone having at the most one C. It doesn't matter whether it is C+, C, or C- but the student can't have more than a count of one.

Here is what I have


SELECT DISTINCT s.lastname+','+' '+s.firstname AS Student, s.studentnumber,e.grade,t.name AS Term,

gs.score, c.name AS Course, se.teacherdisplay

FROM GradingScore gs

INNER JOIN student s ON s.personid = gs.personid

INNER JOIN v_TermGpa tg ON tg.personid = s.personid

INNER JOIN enrollment e ON e.enrollmentid = s.enrollmentid AND e.calendarid = gs.calendarid

INNER JOIN scheduleStructure ss ON ss.calendarid = gs.calendarid

INNER JOIN Termschedule ts ON ts.structureid = ss.structureid

INNER JOIN Term t ON t.termscheduleid = ts.termscheduleid

INNER JOIN section se ON se.sectionid = gs.sectionid

INNER JOIN course c ON c.courseid = se.courseid

WHERE gs.calendarID = 20 AND t.name ='1st 6wk' AND tg.term1gpa >=3.0 AND s.enddate IS NULL

AND gs.score <='C-'

AND (select gs1.personid, gs1.score

from gradingscore gs1

inner join enrollment e1 on e1.personid = gs1.personid

Inner join schedulestructure ss1 on ss1.calendarid = e1.calendarid

Inner join termschedule ts1 on ts1.structureid = ss1.structureid

Inner join term t1 on t1.termscheduleid = ts1.termscheduleid

where gs1.score IN('C','C+','C-') and (count(score)= 0 or count(score) < 2))

ORDER BY s.[student]

I can get it to work all the way up to where the And (count(score) starts then there is something about the way the count is in there that I haven't figured out yet.

Thanks in Advance for any help or advice

Auto Counting In SQL

Oct 5, 2007

Hi all,
I would like to have my SQL statement result to return an additional "column", automatically adding an "auto-increasing" number with it.
So if I for example select all Dates older than today's date, I would want something like this:




1
10/12/2006

2
10/18/2006

3
10/20/2006

4
10/22/2006

5
10/30/2006
Keep in mind that it's not my intention to fysically insert the "counting" column into the table, but rather do it "virtually".
Is this possible? And if yes, how ? :)
 
Thanks in advance
Nick

I'm Stuck With COUNTING

Jan 31, 2008

Sorry for all the code below. I am realizing that my DB design is bad but I already have 7 pages built around it that work fine...until now, so I would really like to not change the DB if possible. My table has 22 columns: iID which is the identity colum. Then there is iAsmtID which is the assessment ID. Lastly there are 20 colums- q1 through q20, each of which will have a 1, 2, or 3, depending on the radio buttons the user clicked. Nows my problem. I have to find a percent for the assessment. It works like this. 3s are NA so we are not worried about them now. I need to find the number of ones and the number of twos for each assessment ID. Then add those together and divide by the number of ones. How can I find the number of the ones and twos. I have below but its not working. Says there is incorrect syntax at the ',' which is a different color below.

Counting Problem

Mar 15, 2004

Hi everyone,

another problem:

I'm trying to count the number of rows but it's not working. Here's my code:


SELECT 'TOTAL number of rows', count(*) --This counts 4! The total number of rows in [Activites]
FROM [Activities]
WHERE [Person ID] IN
(
SELECT DISTINCT [Person ID] --This brings back 2 rows (two specific people)
FROM [Activites]
)


As my comments say, I'm wanting to count the two rows but it's counting every row. Obviously I'm doing something wrong but I can't work it out.

Any help?

Counting Items

Jun 22, 2004

Hi,

I'm trying to include the COUNT(*) value of a sub-query in the results of a parent query. My SQL code is:

SELECT appt.ref, (Case When noteCount > 0 Then 1 Else 0 End) AS notes FROM touchAppointments appt, (SELECT COUNT(*) as noteCount FROM touchNotes WHERE appointment=touchAppointments.ref) note WHERE appt.practitioner=1

This comes up with an error basically saying that 'touchAppointments' isn't valid in the subquery. How can I get this statement to work and return the number of notes that relate to the relevant appointment?

Cheers.

Counting Problem...

Nov 29, 2006

Hi. I have a small problem that i just can't seem to figure out. I'm trying to generate a report for a case management system. The problem I am having is trying to exclude some of these results. Here is my query:

SELECT COUNT(DefendantCase.ProsAtty) AS CountOfProsAtty
FROM DefendantCase LEFT JOIN DefendantEventPros ON DefendantCase.VBKey=DefendantEventPros.VBKey
WHERE DefendantCase.StatusID=17 AND DefendantCase.ProsAtty=55
AND DefendantEventPros.EventDate BETWEEN DATEADD(DAY,-60,GETDATE()) AND GETDATE() AND DefendantEventPros.EventID=9


This query is trying to find the total amount of cases where the statusid=17, the prosatty=55, the date is between today and 60 days ago, and there is an eventid=9.

now, i'm not getting errors in the query itself; it's just that it's inflating the total number. If a case has more than one eventid=9, it will include that extra in the results. I do not want to include those in the results. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Counting A Pyramid Db

many relation with its self
------------
| UserID |
------------
|FatherID|
------------

UserID = FatherID
it looks like this
o
/// \
ooo ooo
//\ ///\
oo ooo ooo
I want to get all the nodes that has 256 children and grand children and each node is limited to have 6 nodes under it.
any ideas ? the DB isn't filled with data yet so we can add more fields
to the table if it helps.

I could write a trigger that increments a counter in each node but it will be a recursive trigger so it can go from the child to its father and the father to its father upating them and so on.

Counting Rows With Value?

Oct 11, 2013

T-SQL counting rows with a value:

My query is like this:

SELECT
Name,
A,
B,
C,
D
FROM
Table
ORDER BY
Name

The query result looks like this:

Name A B C D
Bert 2 0 0 0
Bert 3 6 0 1
Mark 0 0 1 0
Mark 0 8 8 0
Mark 5 6 3 0

I want my result to count the cells with a value and group them on name Like this:

Name A B C D
Bert 2 1 0 1
Mark 3 2 3 0

COUNT() gives back every row from a name.

SUM() adds up the values

I have tried many things with sub queries and combined functions, but up until now with no results.

How do I do this ?

Counting Corresponding Rows

select statement joining file1 to file2. File 1 may have 0, 1, or many corresponding rows in file2. I need to count the corresponding rows in table2. Table2 also has a Boolean column and I need to count the number of rows where it is true. So I need to count the total number of matching rows and the count of those that are set to true. This is an example of what I have so far. I had to add each column being selected into a Group by to make it work, but I do not know why. Is there some other way this should be set up.

SELECT c.CarId, c.CarName, c.CarColor, COUNT(t.TrailerId) as trailerCount, (add count of boolian, say t.TrailerFull is true)
FROM Car c
