I have a database with tables with the following schema...
Articles) ArticleID, Version
ArticlesVersions)ArticleID Version Title Body etc...
I use the articles table to simply map to a version. This allows for me to revert the article to a earliar version.
I want to cache all the articles including the versions, but with another feild that needs to be created durring the select to determine wether the article version is the active version. The feild needs to be a bit (boolean).
I was thinking maybe SELECT (IF test = test THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as IsCurrent.
Hi, I was wanting to know if it is possible to create a left join when selecting from 3 seperate tables.
Select p.Project_name, p.project_id, cp.email_display_name, te.Mon FROM tblProject p, tblCorpPerson cp, tblTimeEntry te WHERE p.Project_ID = te.Project_ID AND p.Person_ID = @PersonID AND cp.Person_ID = p.Person_ID
I need to return all rows from tblProject, and any matching project_id's from tblTimeEntry.
I would like have the default value for a feild to be the result of a call to System.Web.Security.Membership.GeneratePassword(12,4) How do I implement this? In a trigger? Do you have sample code? Thank you very much
I dont know what this is called in the technical world. But you know when you do a search on amazon or play.com and the search results contain the first sentance or so of the items describtion rather than the whole thing. How is this done? thanks si!

Here is some sample data. I hope someone can help.

Hi, I have a stored procedure and using various where condition and all have proper index(clustered). All columns are doing clustered index seek but only the date column doing index scan. If I forcing(hint) the index and getting better performance but still that doing cluster index scan.
Why I am having problem whith this date field? and How can able to make it index seek instead of clustered index scan?.
Let's say I have three fields in a table like this...
Name
Tell us about cats
Tell us about dogs
Now I have two records.
Name Billy Bob
Tell us about cats I do not have any Cats
Tell us about dogs "null"
Name Joe Slick
Tell us about cats "null"
Tell us about dogs they sure chase Cats a lot.
I want my report to generate like this:
Name Billy Bob
Tell us about cats I do not have any cats
Name Joe Slick
Tell us about dogs they sure chase cats allot.
How do I omit null fields in a report including the field description? I am pretty flexible and I am willing to explore using ASP.Net, asp, html, VS2005 ? Or please tell me a program to use. I have a lot of reports to create. The data base is MS SQL 2005. The reports need to be published to the web. Can anyone suggest the best method?
I've got a big problem that I'm trying to figure out: I have an address table out-of-which I am trying to select mailing addresses for companies UNLESS a mailing address doesn't exist; then I want to select the physical addresses for that company. If I get multiple mailing or physical addresses returned I only want the most recently edited out of those.
I don't need this for an individual ID select, I need it applied to every record from the table.
My address table has some columns that look like: [AddressID] [int] [LocationID] [int]
AddressID is a primary-key non-null column to the address table and the LocationID is a foreign key value from a seperate Companies table. So there will be multiple addresses to one LocationID, but each address will have it's own AddressID.
How can I do this efficiently with perfomance in mind???
A colleague of mine has a view that returns approx 100000 rows in about 60 seconds.
He wants to use the data returned from that view in an OLE DB Source component.
When he selects the view from the drop-down list of available tables then SSIS seems to hang without any data being returned (he waited for about 15 mins).
He then changed the OLE DB Source component to use a SQL statement and the SQL statement was: SELECT * FROM <viewname>
In this instance all the data was returned in approx 60 seconds (as expected).
This makes no sense. One would think that selecting a view from the drop-down and doing a SELECT *... from that view would be exactly the same. Evidently that isn't the case.
I am trying to select all entries from a database apart from the top/latest entry, via a stored procedure. Below is the code that i have but i am doing it wrong somehow.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,I have a gridview bound to a sqldatasource control. I have an emptydatatemplate setup. In the selecting event, I make sure that an actual select has been performed (and not on null data); however, I have cancelselectonnullparameters set to true to stop it, because initially it will be null.However, the selecting event runs, even when I cancel it, the emptydatatemplate shows up. How do I prevent that from occuring?

Hi, This is quite an obvious problem, but for some reason I can't think through the solution. I have two columns, a datetime (datecreated) and an id (FK) othertableid (id)what I would like to be able to do is select a list of id and datecreated, but only chose the latest row for each id.So I guess it's a bit like a distinct on the id column, but ensuring the date returned is the top date. Please help
Hi i was wanting to know how to select a record in a gridview. I have a gridview with firsname and lastname. I currently have select command on it but don't want it. I want to be able to select first name or last name and have it take me to that record on the database.

How can I select data between Mth row and Nth row from a specific search condition? for example , I want to get the 5th to 10th employee who is born in March and ordered by their name.
I have one table and it contains a column named ID Number, and a column named Date. I have a Do While statement that runs a SQL select statement a few times based on the number of records with the same ID Number. During the Do While statement the information is copied into another table and deleted from the old table. After I look at the results, I see that at the second Do While loop, the data was not selected and the Select statement did not run... so the old variable value from varValue is used again... Any reasons on why?
Here is a code snippet of what is going on: Do While varCount < varRecordCount conSqlConnect.Open() cmdSelect = New SqlCommand ("Select * From temp_records_1 where [id number]=@idnumber and date<@date", conSqlConnect) cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@accountnumber", "10000" ) cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@date", dtnow ) dtrdatareader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader() While dtrdatareader.Read() If IsDbNull(dtrdatareader("value")) = false Then varValue = dtrdatareader("value") End If End While dtrdatareader.Close() conSqlConnect.Close()
'#####The information above is copied to another table here '#####The record where the information was received is deleted.
I have a tbale with maybe 30 columns and I'm selecting all where a record number matches a parameter I've passed. That works fine, however is there any way to do some conversions to fields when selecting without having to list out each column? For instance this is what it looks like now:
SELECT * FROM Losses WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord ORDER BY Record ASC
But I want to convert say one column, is there a way to keep similar syntax instead of listing out each column?
SELECT *, CONVERT(varchar(15), [Losses]) as [Losses] FROM Losses WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord ORDER BY Record ASC
And the column I'm converting is of type 'money'. I'm converting it to get rid of the extra zeroes at the end. If you know a better way to do it I'd be interested in knowing.

I have a content management system that I am building. My CMS has a pages table which contains 60 fields, some are varchars, some are ntext some are dates etc. They have field names which match their purpose like varchar1, ntext3 etc. These fields are used up depending on which template is applied to the page.
The templatefields table holds holds the information about each field in a template. It's control type (rich text control, date control etc) and the field in the pages table that the data will be stored in (varchar1,ntext3 etc)
What I want to be able to do is loop through the templatefeilds table for a particular template and then using the field name for the pages table, go to the pages table and get the value to populate the control.
So to clarify, I would like to produce a stored procedure which outputs the page field name (varchar1) from the templatefields table and varchar1's value in the pages table. Maybe in a temporary table.
Hi -- What is the proper way to select results with a date in the where statement when the datatype of the column is datetime? select * from table where date_field = '3-23-2006' does not get any results.
We are developing an Access application that will be used to run adhoc reports against a SQL Server table. Selection criteria is entered on a form, a passthru query is built on the fly, and the results are formatted for output via an Access report.
There are 16 different fields on the query form. Two are date fields (from / to), the rest are text. The user is required to supply a date range for the report. They may specify any combination of the remaining query fields.
Examples: From/To dates, part number, work order number From/To dates, location, operation, sales order number, operator
What is the best scheme to use for the indexes? One index for each potential query field? Or, a single index that includes ALL query fields? Or, some other combination?
I should also mention that there will be no realtime updates to the table. On a weekly basis, we will import updates from a mainframe extract (dropping the indexes prior to the import, rebuilding them afterwards).
I have a database which has a field called fldTimes. basically this field records the number of hits a file gets. How can I choose the most 5 popular files with the greatest hits. Thanks
Can anyone help me in finding out the database name? For example, @@SERVERNAME gives you the name of the server on which you SQL Server is running. In the same way, is there any global variable which gives me the name of the database in the context in which I am running my queries or stored procs?
I have a query that returns a certain amount of results. How do I select the last row??? I know I can do the top row by doing (top 1). Basically I need the complete opposite. Please help...
Hello . Sometimes when i try to select data from a table (from a selected database) using SQL Query Analyzer (for exemple) i receive an error message : "The Object XX does not exist" . But when i prefix it by the Owner it work .
Does anyone know how to select rows by their position in a table. I need to be able to e.g return the 2,000th - 2,200th rows as a set. I will have many concurrent clients connecting to this table so I do not want to use cursors. The table is 800,000 in length. Any ideas people?
