I have 2 tables:
Customer Table: ID, OrderID (composite key)
100, 1
100, 2
200, 3
200, 1
Order Table: OrderID, Detail
1, Orange
2, Apple
3, Pineaple
Assuming each customer always orders 2 items. I need to create a SQL query that shows as following (a view or a temp table is OK). How do I do that?
CustomerID, Order Detail1, Order Detail2
100, Orange, Apple
200, Pineaple, Orange
I have a view which works fine but I cannot display the data in the Report tool because its
CCSID is HEX. If I could create it to temp table
I think then there would be an easy way to get around this problem.
This is the code:
CREATE VIEW astlib.acbalmpk AS (
(SELECT LMLTPC, COALESCE(IRLOC1,'') as IRLOC1,
COALESCE(IRLOC2,'')
as IRLOC2, COALESCE(IRLOC3,'') as IRLOC3, IRPRT#, IRQOH#, IRWHS#,
'' as IEPRT#, '.00' as IEQOH#, '' as IELOC1, '' as IELOC2, '' as
IELOC3, '' as IERIDC, '' as IEWHS#

I have two SPs, call them Daily and Weekly. Weekly will always callDaily, but Daily can run on its own. I currently use a global temptable because certain things I do with it won't work with a local temptable or table variable.I have been trying to get code so that if the table already exists, itjust keeps going and uses it, but creates the temp table if it doesn'texist. Unfortunately, no matter how I try to do it, it always attemptsto create it, raising an error and breaking the code.create table ##load_file_log (id int identity(1,1),contentsvarchar(1000))insert into ##load_file_log (contents) values ('test record')IF object_id('tempdb..##load_file_log') IS not NULLprint 'exists'ELSEcreate table ##load_file_log (id int identity(1,1),contentsvarchar(1000))select * from ##load_file_logdrop table ##load_file_logIf I change it to IS NULL, the same error occurs (Server: Msg 2714,Level 16, State 1, Line 7There is already an object named '##load_file_log' in the database.)I have found one way to do it, but it seems a bit...clunky.IF object_id('tempdb..##load_file_log') IS NULLexec ('create table ##load_file_log (id int identity(1,1),contentsvarchar(1000))')I'll use that for now, but is there something I missed?Thanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an stp where I want to return a Recordset via a SELECT that joins 3 temp tables...
Here's what the temp tables look like (I am being brief)...
CREATE TABLE #Employees (EmpID INTEGER, EmpName NVARCHAR(40))
CREATE TABLE #PayPeriods (PayPeriodIndex INTEGER, StartDate DATETIME, EndDate DATETIME)
CREATE TABLE #Statistics (EmpID INTEGER, PayPeriodIndex INTEGER, HoursWorked REAL)
The #Employees table is populated for all employees.
The #PayPeriods table is populated for each calandar week of the year (PayPeriodIndex=0 to 51).
The #Statistics table is populated from data within another permanent table.
Some employees do not work all 52 weeks.
Some employees do not work any of the 52 weeks.
So, the #Statistics table doesn't have all possible combinations of Employees and PayPeriods.
I want to return a Recordset for all possible combinations of Employees and PayPeriods...
Here's a SELECT that I have used...
SELECT e.EmpId, e.Name, pp.PayPeriodIndex, ISNULL(s.HoursWorked,0)

LEFT OUTER JOIN #Employees e....
LEFT OUTER JOIN #PayPeriods pp ....
WHERE s.EmpId = e.EmpId

problem:
Have a table with Data and Dependencies(Foreign Keys) and Stored Procedures, views etc.
Need the Data in that table to put in different order.
For exampl, put older years in the begining or end so when sorted by year, you will get right data.
Question is: If i use view it will be based on the table with Wrong entry order and if i use Temporary Table
each time stored procedure is run, it will be created and overhead.
Example of the table is below with Wrong order.
I should have entered the old years first.
Note this is example and not the actual table!
ID Yr Title/Model Serial#

1 2005 Toyota Camery IXp12365555
2 2006 Honda Accord XJi9770009

4 2004 Honda Accord XJi9880009
5 2005 Honda Accord XJi9009009
6 2007 Honda Accord XJi9078009
If this example is not right, my bottom line is this:
I have entered the Data in a table and i'm getting wrong resutls when i order by Desc or Asc and now either have to delete all rows and re-enter it or have someother clever way!
If There are very lots of data to retrieve to show in any inquiry forms.each inquiry forms need to use a lot of table. There are two methods I thought First, Prepare data to Temp table when arise any transaction and Program then retrieves data from temp table. Second, Create view for retrieving data Which method is the better choice ? How ? (More fast, More performance or More flexible ? ) Please advise me....

i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?

Hi all!I have a problem with a temp table.I start creating my table:bdsqlado.execute ("CREATE TABLE #MyTable ...")There is no error. The sql string has been tested and when it'sexecuted in the sql query analyzer it really creates the table.After creating the table, I execute an insert statement:bdsqlado.execute ("INSERT INTO #MyTable VALUES(...) "It returns an error like this: "Invalid Object Name #MyTable"I don't understand what's wrong. If I execute both sql sentences inthe SQL Query Analyzer it works perfectly.I use the same connection to execute both statements and I don't closeit before the INSERT is executed.I think it may be something related to dynamic properties of theconnection, but I'm not sure. It's just an idea.Please I need help.Thanks a lot,

Hello
I have a local SQL2005 server with a linked SQL2000 server. I would like to know how to create a temporary table in the remote server in such a way that I can make an inner join as follows; my idea is to optimized a distributed query by doing so:
create table #myRemoteTempTable
insert into #myRemoteTempTable
select * from myLocalTable
update myRemoteTable
set
Value=#myRemoteTempTable.Value
from myRemoteTable
inner join #myRemoteTempTable on #myRemoteTempTable.ID=myRemoteTable.ID
Is there a way to find out what the datatypes of a temp table are?
Example:
select cust_code, cust_name, cust_state
into #customers
where cust_state = 'TX'
I would like to know what datatypes SQL used when creating #customers.
Thank you for all the help.
Hi all
I'm new to sql and could do with some help resolving this issue.
My problem is as follows,
I have two tables a BomHeaders table and a BomComponents table which consists of all the components of the boms in the BomHeaders table.
The structure of BOMs means that BOMs reference BOMs within themselves and can potentially go down many levels:
In a simple form it would look like this:
LevelRef: BomA
1component A
1component B
1Bom D
1component C
What i would like to do is potentially create a temporary table which uses the BomReference as a parameter and will loop through the records and bring me back every component from every level
Which would in its simplest form look something like this
LevelRef: BomA
1......component A
1......component B
1......Bom D
2.........Component A
2.........Component C
2.........Bom C
3............Component F
3............Component Z
1......component C
I would like to report against this table on a regular basis for specific BomReferences and although I know some basic SQL this is a little more than at this point in time i'm capable of so any help or advice on the best method of tackling this problem would be greatly appreciated.
also i've created a bit of a diagram just in case my ideas weren't conveyed accurately.

Hi
Folx,
I
am new to SQL Server and I am struggling.
Versions:
Microsoft
SQL Server Integration Services Designer Version
9.00.1399.00
Microsoft
SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.1399.00
I
would like to
01.
create a temp table
02.
load the temp table from a flat file
03.
insert into a destination table the rows from the temp table where NOT EXIST the
primary key of the destination table.
ISSUES:
Flat
File Source will not accept that a resource will be available that does not yet
exist (the temp table)
I
set the Flat File Source to €œIgnore Failure€? and ran the package. It ran with
warnings but did not insert the new rows.
The
€œIgnore Duplicates€? radio button is €œgrayed out€? because the index is clustered
Now
I could work around this thing by keeping a table just for purposes of this
process flow. I am opposed to that philosophically and would prefer to do this
in the way that I consider appropriate€¦is there a solution?
Thanks,
Bill
HI, Guys:
I've some AT_DATE tables (eg: AT_20080401, AT_20080402, ...) in SQLServer DB, and these AT_XX table have same columns. but table count could be variant, so I have to query sysobjects to get all of these tables. like this:
select name from sysobject where name like 'AT_%'
Now I try to create a view AT which is the union of all these AT_XX tables, such as:
Code Snippet
Create View AT as
select * from AT_20080401
union
select * from AT_20080402
union ...
but since I'm not sure how many tables there, it would be impossible to write SQL as above.
though I could get this union result via stored-procedure, view couldn't be created on the resultset of a procedure.
Create View AT as
select * from AT_createView() <-- AT_createView must be a function, not procedure
I've checked msdn, there is Multi-statement table-valued function, but this function type seems to create one temporary table, I don't want to involve much of insert operation because there could be more than 1million records totally in these AT_XX tables.
So is there any way to achived my goal?
any reference would be appreciated, thanks !
How do I know when to use a table variable, and when to use a temp table in my stored procedures? It seems that in most cases table variables are more efficient (in terms of execution time / CPU usage) but some of my stored procedures perform an order of magnitute better with temp tables instead.
Short of testing the stored proc both ways, how do I know what to do?
declare @Temp table
or
create table #Temp
I have a few hundred users, maybe a dozen or two active at any given time, accessing the same database via ASP. The database has many tables, one being a very large orders table with a few million records, in which I have created a view against. A view only because I need to allow the user to filter quite extensively against the results. The users typically only need to view records for the last 30 days and results for each user might be five thousand records or less.
My question is this. Would I be better off writing each user's resultset to a temp table for that user's session and allow the filtering and sorting by the user go against that temp table and increase my hardware requirements to accomodate that. Possibly to the point of creating a database cluster. OR would I be better off leaving it as is where each users uses the same view.
FYI...each user may need visibility to only a hand full of fields, but over all the view must maintain many fields.
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

How do I do this? I have two queries that create temp tables. I need to union them together and create one temp table. Anyone done this with success?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running SQL Server Best Practices on a SQL 2000database and it is recommending me to change the temptables inside SPs to table variables.I had read already in other places to use table variablesover temp tables. I also know I can't create indexes asI can on temp tables. Instead I'll have to create eithera primary key and/or a unique index on a table variable.One question I have is let's say I will be putting thousandsof records in a temp table, should i still choose a tablevariable over a temp table for this? Or is there arecommended limit where if I have to store certainnumber of records then it's better to store them ina temp table rather than a table variable? Or numberof records is not the factor to decide whether to usetemp tables or table variables?I would like to know when it's ideal or best to usetemp tables instead of table variables and vice versa.Thank you
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am using a SQL back end to dynamically populate an asp.net report/page.
As the data I'm interrogating is created from a tree control, I'm having to use a recursive function to retrieve the data into a series of ID values. This all happens at the moment in a DataTable manipulated with c# code. So my ID values end up in this datatable.
My problem is that I am then performing a crosstab query in SQL Server 2000 and these ID are required as part of that query.
Should I create a temp table and join this into the query or should i feed in a series of ID values into a where clause?
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks.

I have an Access app. that I am migrating the DB portion (queries, tables) to SQL server. I need to create a temp table that lasts as long as the user has the Access FE app. open. Idea is that the temp table stores the user's parameters (used for filtering data entry forms and report). The parameters allow the app. to only show the user his data (cannot view other users data). The SP shown below works OK, it creates a ##Temp table and updates it with the parameters sent by Access FE app. The issue I am having is that as soon as the SP finishes the ##Temp table is removed. I thought of using a regular table, but, I am currently testing this migration in my local SQL server instance, as soon as I move the database to production environment, then users will not be able to create tables as permissions are only read/write.

As of right now I have been limiting the names that are put into GradeID to Homework, Daily, Test, Quiz, and Bonus.

I have a real table with an identity column and a trigger to populate this column.
I need to import / massage data for data loads from a different format, so I have a temp table defined that contains only the columns that are represented in the data file so I can bulk insert.
I then alter this table to add all the other columns so that it reflects all the columns in the real table. I then populate all the values so that this contains the data I need.
I then want to insert into the real table pushing the data from the temp table, however this gives me errors stating that the query returned multiple rows.
I specified all the columns in the insert grouping as well as on the select from the temp table.
ANY thoughts / comments are appreciated. This is beginning to drive me nuts.
