Creating A Select Statement With Subqueries To 3 Other Tables...

Jul 23, 2005

I have four total tables.


Table One (Documents)- List of Documents. Each record has two fields
related to this issue. First field (Document_ID) is the ID of the
document, second field is the ID of the record (Task_ID) it is
associated to in Table Two.

Table Two (Activities)- List of activities. Each record has two fields
related to this issue. First field (Activity_ID) is the ID of the
activity, the second field (Group_ID) is the ID of the record it is
associated to in Table Three.

Table Three (Groups) - List of groups. Each record has two fields
related to this issue. First field (Group_ID) is the ID of the group,
the second field (Stage_ID) is the ID of the record it is associated to
in Table four.

Table Four (Stages)- List of Event Stages. Each record has two fields
that is related to this issue. The first field (Stage_ID) is the ID of
the stage of an event, the second record is the ID number associated to
the event. This last ID is a known value.

20000024 = the Event ID

I'm trying to come up with a list of Documents from the first table
that is associated to an Event in the Fourth table.

Query Analyzer shows no errors within the script. It just doesn't
return any data. I know that it should, if it does what I'm wanting it
to do.



SELECT Document_ID FROM Documents as A where ((SELECT Event_ID FROM
Stages as D WHERE (D.Stage_ID = (SELECT Stage_ID FROM Groups as C WHERE
(C.Group_ID = (SELECT Group_ID FROM Activity as B WHERE (B.Activity_ID
= A.Activity_ID))))))= '20000024')

Multiple Tables Used In Select Statement Makes My Update Statement Not Work?

Aug 29, 2006

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly.  My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys.  So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys.  I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit.  I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it.  I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates.  When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template.  This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value.  So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors.  I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode.  I make my changes and then select "update."  When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing.  The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work.  When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again.  Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People].  My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list.  If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database.  It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed.  If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can.  This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go.  I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

SELECT-Using Correlated Subqueries: Just Name In Results && 0 Row Affected In One Of MSDN2 SELECT Examples

Jan 11, 2008

Hi all,
I copied and executed the following sql code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE):
--SELECTeg8.sql from SELECT-Using correlated subqueries of MSDN2 SELECT Examples--

USE AdventureWorks ;

GO

SELECT DISTINCT Name

FROM Production.Product p

WHERE EXISTS

(SELECT *

FROM Production.ProductModel pm

WHERE p.ProductModelID = pm.ProductModelID

AND pm.Name = 'Long-sleeve logo jersey') ;

GO

-- OR

USE AdventureWorks ;

GO

SELECT DISTINCT Name

FROM Production.Product

WHERE ProductModelID IN

(SELECT ProductModelID

FROM Production.ProductModel

WHERE Name = 'Long-sleeve logo jersey') ;

GO

=========================================
I got:
Results Messages
Name o row affected
========================================
I think I did not get a complete output from this job. Please help and advise whether I should search somewhere in the SSMSE for the complete results or I should correct some code statements in my SELECTeg8.sql for obtaining the complete results.

Thanks in advance,

Creating A Date Range Using Correlated Subqueries

Apr 1, 2008

I have a 7 million line table named SecurityID with the following data:
Date, Security, Identifier1, Identifier2, Identifier3

I am trying to reduce it to a table newSecurityID in the following form:
FromDate, ToDate, SecurityId, Identifier1, Identifier2, Identifier3

This new table will have the first instance for each securityId with the identifying information. New rows will be added If any of the 3 identifying information changes. This isn't as simple as querying for the maximum and minimum value given each distinct group of identifiers because identifiers can change from an initial set and then change back to the initial values.

My plan was to first select all distinct (Security, Identifier1, Identifier2, Identifier3) into a temporary table. Then query the table SecurityID for the minimum date available which matches these 4 fields and find the corresponding maximum value.
This doesn't seem to working as I had planned as I am getting one row for each date rather than when identifiers change. Plus its taking a really long time to finish.

Any help will be appreciated!

Here is my code:


select distinct SecurityId, Identifier1, Identifier2, Identifier3 into #DistinctSecurityID from SecurityID



insert into


newSecurityID (FromDate, ToDate, SecurityId, Identifier1, Identifier2, Identifier3 )

select


FromDate=min( a.Date),

ToDate=isnull((


select min(b.Date)

from


SecurityId b

where


b.SecurityId=a.SecurityId

and b.Date>a.Date

and (a.Identifier1!= b.Identifier1


OR a.Identifier2!=b.Identifier2

OR a.Identifier3!= b.Identifier3)

),'20991231'),

#DistinctSecurityID.SecurityId,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier1,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier2,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier3

from


SecurityID a,

#DistinctSecurityID

where


#DistinctSecurityID.SecurityId=a.SecurityId

and #DistinctSecurityID.Identifier1=a.Identifier1

and #DistinctSecurityID.Identifier2=a.Identifier2

and #DistinctSecurityID.Identifier3=a.Identifier3

group by


#DistinctSecurityID.SecurityId,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier1,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier2,

#DistinctSecurityID.Identifier3,

a.SecurityId,

a.Date,

a.Identifier1,

a.Identifier2,

a.Identifier3

order by


a.SecurityId,

min(a.Date)

Querying Multi-tables? Joins? Subqueries?

Jul 20, 2005

Hi, all:This is probably a simple problem, but, as an SQL newbie, I'm having alittle trouble understanding multi-joins and subqueries.I have the following tables and columns:MemberTable-----MemberID (primary key)MemberNameAddressCountryFoodsTable------FoodID (primary key)FoodNameMusicTable-----MusicID (primary key)MusicNameMoviesTable-----MoviesID (primary key)MoviesName....and their linking tables...Members2FoodsTable-----MemberID (foreign key)FoodsID (foreign key)Members2MoviesTable-----MemberID (foreign key)MoviesID (foreign key)....and so forth.Now what I'm trying to do is retrieve a specific MemberID, his address info(from the Members table), and get a listing of his favorite Movies, Foods,Music, etc. I know I probably need to JOIN tables, but where do I JOIN thetables? Do I have to JOIN the various Music/Foods/Movies tables or is itthe Music/Members2Music and Foods/Members2Foods, etc. tables? And I assumeI would probably need to perform a subquery somewhere?I realize I'll need to first filter the Members, Members2Music,Members2Foods, etc. tables by the MemberID, and afterwards, retrieve alisting of the actual Music/Foods/Movies names. I'm just confused how to dothat. (By the way, I have a total of 10 other tables or in addition toMusic, Foods, etc. so it's a lot of table JOINing.)If someone could please help me out with the actual SQL coding, I'd reallyappreciate it!Thanks for the help!J

Joining Tables In A VIEW SELECT Statement

Jan 11, 1999

Wuddup,

I am trying to create a view that encapsulates some specific info from many different tables. I have about 30 tables all with exactly the same field names and field types. I want to take 3 of the fields from every table and put them together into one 'VIEW' so I can run more efficient queries. SQL however, doesn't let you 'combine' 2 columns from different tables into one column in the view. (making sense?)
I tried running a 'UNION' but you are specifically NOT allowed to run a union in a create view statement. Anyone have any ideas?

Creating SQL Statement

Mar 4, 2007

Alright, so let me explain the details first.I have two tables. One is the default aspnet_users table that themembership class builds. that has GUID, username, lowereduser, and such.then I have another table called "UserSkills". That stores the GUID of the member, then the skills they have. so in that table i have. userID as GUID, then about 12 languages in 'bit' format.. (thats becuase in the webpage when they fill out there profile, all these are checkboxes.  Basically all of the info is here http://www.listofcoders.com/profile.aspx?name=fenixsn.  so there are a couple of bit fields, 1 text, and couple of varchars.anways, so i wanna build a powerful search thingy. where the users have the option to search a user that only does for ex say php, asp, asp.net. and is from location "Canada". ok so when they fill out the info,  I want my SQL statement to do the following search the userskills table for the required fields. there might be more then 1 person that has the same profile, but different GUID. and then maybe using "Join" or another sql statement, grab there username, and last activity date from the users table that memberhship createes. so in short, how do i make a dynamic sql statement.

Having Problems Creating An SQL Statement

Oct 28, 2007

I  am having trouble getting the SQL statement to return stats from a survey the way I want them. The table is set up as: 
ID Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 
Responses for each question (Columns Q1 – Q4) will be a numerical value between 1-5. I want to count how many 1s, 2s, 3s, etc. I have tried different joins, self joins, unions and sub selections but cannot get the correct output.  
I would like to get the output for each question as a single record, and if possible have a  final column with an average for the question. But I can do that in the data binding if needed. Qs        Ones    Twos    Threes  Fours   Fives
Q1       #of 1s   #of 2s   #of 3s   #of 4s   #of 5s
Q2       #of 1s   #of 2s   #of 3s   #of 4s   #of 5s
Q3       #of 1s   #of 2s   #of 3s   #of 4s   #of 5s
Any tips or SQL sample statements would be greatly appreciated.

Multiple Tables Select Performance - SQL 2005 - Should It Take 90 Seconds For A Select?

Dec 4, 2007

I have a problem where my users complain that a select statement takes too long, at 90 seconds, to read 120 records out of a database.
The select statement reads from 9 tables three of which contain 1000000 records, the others contain between 100 and 250000 records.
I have checked that each column in the joins are indexed - they are (but some of them are clustered indexes, not unclustered).
I have run the SQL Profiler trace from the run of the query through the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor". That just suggested two statistics items which I added (no benefit) and two indexes for tables that are not involved at all in the query (I didn't add these).
I also ran the query through the Query window in SSMS with "Include Actual Execution Plan" enabled. This showed that all the execution time was being taken up by searches of the clustered indexes.
I have tried running the select with just three tables involved, and it completes fast. I added a fourth and it took 7 seconds. However there was no WHERE clause for the fourth table, so I got a cartesian product which might have explained the problem.
So my question is: Is it normal for such a type of read query to take 90 seconds to complete?
Is there anything I could do to speed it up.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

search.asp has the following.

Form Name: searchForm
Set to: Post
Action: results.asp
Text Field: Keyword
Drop Down: CategoryTable
Drop Down: Location
UserName Session Variable: MM_UserName

results.asp has the following SQL which pulls all the results.

SELECT SupplierName, Location, ShortDescription, TimberSpecies, CategoryTitle, Country, CustomerType
FROM Query1
WHERE TimberSpecies LIKE '%MMColParam%' AND CategoryTitle LIKE '%MMColParam2%' AND Location LIKE '%MMColParam3%' AND CustomerType = 'Trade/Retail'
ORDER BY CategoryTitle, TimberSpecies ASC

The database & form I want to insert into.

tblSearcheResults
idSearch (AutoNumber)
location (Text) "Want to insert the 'Location' result here"
category (Text) "Want to insert the 'CategoryTable' result here"
user (Text) "Want to insert the UserName Session Variable result here"
result (Text) "Want to insert the 'Keyword' result here"

Please ask if u need more info.

Mally
