Creating A Sequential Row Number In A Query Resultset --- Is It Possible?
Feb 17, 2005
Hello everyone,
I have a stored procedure that supplies rows for a front-end DataGrid that allows custom paging. The stored procedure must return the requested "page" of rows as identified by a sproc argument. Currently, I'm loading the the query's result set into a temporary table that has an identity column as primary key. I then run a second query against the temp table that uses the identity column value to strip out the requested "page" of rows and return them to the front-end DataGrid.
I'd like to eliminate the temporary table. To do so I would need to create the equivalent of an identity column in the query's sorted results and reference this value in the WHERE clause in order to return only the requested rows.
Does anyone know of a way to generate a sequential number (starting at 1) within a query (and after the rows have been sorted by the ORDER BY)? I don't think this can be done but I put it out for those who may know better.
Thanks for your help. If you know this is impossible, that would be helpful feedback as well.

Hello!
Got a problem I hope some clever people can help me out with..
I have a web form that displays a set of records in a grid. The grid is "paged" according to a PageNum column, with a dropdown box to change pages and buttons allowing the items to be moved up or down a list within a page or moved between pages. So the backend table (simplified) looks something like this
PageNum ItemNum ItemDescription
----------- ----------- -------------------
1 1 aaaaaaa
1 2 bbbbbbb
1 3 cccccccc
2 1 ddddddd
2 2 eeeeeee
2 3 ffffffffffff
3 1 ggggggg
3 2 hhhhhhh
3 3 iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
The problem is when I want to delete a page - I need the page numbers to automatically resequence themselves, so for example, If I delete "Page 2" (i.e. delete rows where PageNum = 2), all items on "Page 3" become "Page 2" (and any items on "Page 4" become "Page 3" etc).
This has proved straightforward to when deleting an item from a particular page, and can resequence ItemNum thanks to a clever bit of code found on SQLteam.com:
DECLARE @intCounter int
SET @intCounter = 0
UPDATE <Item Table>
@intCounter = ItemNum = @intCounter + 1
WHERE Pagenumber = <Currently Selected Page>
However I haven't been able to adapt this to resequence the Page number, as this involves resequencing blocks of numbers. The closest I can get is:
DECLARE @intCounter int
SET @intCounter = 1
UPDATE <Itemtable>
SET @intCounter = PageNum = CASE
WHEN @intCounter = PageNum - 1 THEN @intCounter + 1
WHEN @intCounter = PageNum - 2 THEN @intCounter + 1
ELSE @intCounter
END
But this doesn't quite work.
Anyone got any other ideas??
Thanks
Greg

We are integrating all our applications/databases into one application/database. During the transition phase, I need to create a number of views based on the new database that mimic the old tables of the old databases, so the old programs can continue to function until they are gradually replaced.
In one of the views, I need to generate a sequential number. The value is unimportant, as long as it is unique in the dataset; strictly spoken, it even doesn't need to be sequential:
eg:
SELECT * FROM myView
should give
Code:
col1col2...id
lalacar..1
bababike..2
....
zsrdpen..896
ghrtink..897
SELECT * FROM myView ORDER BY col2
should give
Code:
col1col2...id
bababike..1
lalacar..2
..
ghrtink..45
..
zsrdpen..396
....
The view is created based on a number of tables.

this is a slight change to a fequently asked question around here. Ihave a table which contains a "sortorder" column where a user canspecify some arbitrary order for records to be displayed in. Usershave sometimes ordered records the way we used to number lines in aBASIC program (10,20,30, etc.). I'd like to do an update query and fixthis so that every record is in sequential order. I found an examplein this newsgroup of how to do this.However, I have a slight problem! Sometimes, the users duplicated thesortorders. So for example, I might have two records were thesortorder is 20. The query I found in this newsgroup does not work inthat case. Here is some code so that you can see what I mean.create table sorttest (label char(5),sortorder int)goinsert sorttest values ('joe',20)insert sorttest values ('dan',10)insert sorttest values ('jim',44)insert sorttest values ('tom',20)insert sorttest values ('jan',50)-- data dumpselect label, sortorder from sorttest order by sortorder-- I'd like to fix all of the sortorder fields so that they aresequentialupdate sorttestset sortorder = (select count(*)from sorttest subquerywhere sorttest.sortorder <= subquery.sortorder)-- note that tom and joe BOTH HAVE SORTORDER = 4select label, sortorder from sorttest order by sortorderdrop table sorttestThanks in advance for any help.

Hello, I have a table where I'm deleting the contents before populating the table with new data. I have an ID column that is autogenerating a sequential number. I would like to reset this number back to 1 when I delete the contents of the table. How can this be accomplished?

I have two tables
1. Po (Purchase Order)
2. PoDet (PoDetails)
Po Table is having a datatime field called "ShipDate", OrderNo and a field called PoNo (which is having number of PO).
PoDet is child table having PoNo and PoQty
Suppose following records are in both tables
Po:-
OrderNo : 1
PoNo :- Po No 1
ShipDate :- Oct 5, 2007
OrderNo : 1
PoNo :- Po No 2
ShipDate :- Dec 5, 2007
OrderNo : 1
PoNo :- Po No 3
ShipDate :- Oct 5, 2007
PoDet:
PoNo :- Po No 1
PoQty :- 2000
PoNo :- Po No 2
PoQty :- 3000
PoNo :- Po No 3
PoQty :- 4000
I want to generate a Delivery No. which will be generated in this way :-
1. Earlier Shipdates should be assigned a Lower Number
2. If Shipdates are same, like in case of PoNo 1 and PoNo3, the higher Qty will be assigned a lower number
So meeting the above two conditions, a single SQL should return
PoNo :- Po No 3
DelNo : 1 (As Dates are same for PoNo1 and PoNo3 but PoNo3 Qty is higher, so this will come first)
PoNo :- Po No 1
DelNo : 2
PoNo :- Po No 2
DelNo : 3
Can anybody help on this.

The below data come from table table1. Instead of below result Ex1: I need output similar to the ex2.
Ex1:

How to get the result similar to Ex2, instead of Ex1. (ie., case-number is in sequential order then no need to break), And it should suit large dataset, I will finetune, if any performance issue.

Ok I have upgraded my works database from a poorly designed Access database to a SQL database. The previous system allowed NULL values and duplicates to be inserted into a field that should NOT ALLOW NULL Values or duplicates. Therefore, this issue has now been moved across to my new system as I cannot set these constraints on the field that has multiple NULL values.
My solution would be to use a sequential operator, so whatever = NULL would be changed to a sequential number that us as administrators would know was a bogus number starting at something like = 999999900 counting up from that. There are only 250 records that would require updating.
To make things more interesting this field is not a integer type, its a Nvarchar type as its a Hardware ID. Both numerical and characters are require.

I have a query which returns information about transactions similar to this:
Select account, trans_code, quantity
from ledger_table
This returns something like:
acct trans_code quantity
----- ---------- ------------
2 2 1000
2 3 500
2 3 300
3 2 100
3 2 500
etc.
What I need to do is add a lot number for each acct/trans code type. This is merely a sequential number for the transaction. This changes the output as follows:
acct trans_code quantity lot
----- ---------- ------------ ---
2 2 1000 1
2 3 500 1
2 3 300 2
3 2 100 1
3 2 500 2
3 3 1000 3
3 5 200 1
etc.
The lot number is reset for each grouping.
Does anyone have a way to do this outside of a cursor or temp table?
TIA, any help greatly appreciated.

Let's say I have the following table:entry product quality1 A 802 A 703 A 804 B 605 B 906 C 807 D 808 A 509 C 70I'm looking for a way to find the average "quality" value for aSEQUENTIAL GROUPING of the same Product. For exmple, I need anaverage of Entry 1+2+3 (because this is the first grouping of the sameproduct type), but NOT want that average to include row 8 (which isalso Product A, but in a different "group".)I'm sure it can be done (because I can describe it!), but I'll be amonkey's uncle if I can figure out how. I would imagine it wouldinvolve some sort of running tally that references the next record asit goes... to see if the product type has changed. Perhaps use of atemporary table?Muchas gracias!!Cy.

I have a database that is pre-populated with sequential part numbers.As people reserve the parts I update a flag to show the # is no longeravailable. Now they want the ability to take out a block of "x"number of sequential part numbers - say for example 5.If my database had the following numbers available:101104105110111112113114It should return 110 thru 114 and then I would write an update queryto change the flags to 1 (checked out).I have only been able to return the first "x" number of records - havenot been able to make sure they are stepped sequentially - with thefollowing:SELECT ID_ITEM From PARTNO_CHKOUT_SPECIAL M Where (Select Count(*)FROM PARTNO_CHKOUT_SPECIAL NWHERE N.ID_ITEM <= M.ID_ITEM) >= 0 AND TYPE_REC=1 ANDFLAG_CHECKED_OUT=0 {maxrows 5}The above would return 101, 104, 105, 110, 111I tried using an (N.ID_ITEM+1)-M.ID_ITEM=0 to try stepping and geterrors, probably incorrect syntax. Can I do this in an SQL statement?

I am creating a simple SSRS table report through Report Builder. My dataset is looking for the stored procedure . When I execute the Stored procedure through SSMS I get resutset for certain parameters. I execute the dataset  (Store procedure) through query designer in dataset properties and I get results back. But when I try to run the report and see the preview, I do not get any results displayed. I been looking on the same issue form last 3-4 days and have not found any clue.
Following is the stored procedure I am using. Also I am passing multivalued parameter through report as well, and I am using spilt function to seperate the libraryid I am reading from parameter values. This works fine. I have similar kind of four other reports and with different stored procedure which exactly follow the same method , like multivalue parameters and other criteria are also very similar. All other reports works just fine.. This perticular report has issue for displying results, following is the stored procedure I am usingÂ
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

Hi,
Can anyone tell me offhand the simplest/most elegant way of updating an integer column to a sequential column of numbers with a query?
e.g given
intval | Description| Cost
0 | Descvalue0| 4.32
2 | Descvalue2| 4.33
3 | Descvalue3| 4.34
8 | Descvalue8| 4.35
change it to:
intval | Description| Cost
0 | Descvalue0| 4.32
1 | Descvalue2| 4.33
2 | Descvalue3| 4.34
3 | Descvalue8| 4.35
I think it might need a stored proc..
Many Thanks

I wanted to know the best way to achieve the following results. I have a table that I need output sequential range of vouchers in a table. For instance I have the following data in a column called vouchers. The output will consist of a years worth of vouchers, so voucher numbers may contain gaps and so the need to have a sequential range that has a From and To output. The query needs to know the min and max within that numerical range and then output the next min and max range until it gets to the end.
The data looks like:
ABCD-001869202
ABCD-001869203
ABCD-001869204
ABCD-001869205
ABCD-001869209
ABCD-0018692010
ABCD-0018692011
ABCD-001869309
ABCD-001869310
ABCD-001869311
ABCD-001869312
ABCD-001869313
ABCD-001869314
Desired out put:
From To
ABCD-001869202 ABCD-001869205
ABCD-001869209 ABCD-0018692011
ABCD-001869309 ABCD-001869314
I have tried the following, but it does not quite do what I need it to do, so not sure if I am taking the right approach:
SELECT voucher vouchers,right(voucher, charindex('-', voucher) + 3) voucher
INTO #tempVoucher
FROM LEDGERJOURNALTRANS
where TRANSDATE between '10/1/2013' and '7/31/2014' and VOUCHER like 'APIN%'

I'm learning ASP.net, transitioning from ColdFusion. So far so go... but there is 1 thing that I can't seem to find a simple answer to. How can I do a simple output of a query resultset to the screen or to a label?
In CF it would be simple like this:
<cfquery name="getSomeData" datasource="somedatasource">SELECT somestuffFROM sometableWHERE something = something</cfquery>
<cfoutput>#getsomedata.somestuff#</cfoutput>
FYI: using the queryname.column returns only the first row in the CF query result
I have seen examples with:
label.text = somevarname
which doesn't work for the query... but what about the query result?

Hi All,
I am really in a great trouble. My requirement is quite complex, as I feel, it may be quite simple for some of you.
Here is my problem -
Actually I am doing a project, where client has a specific requirement. i.e. he want's to build a query on runtime for selecting particular record he wants, so that we have provided a user interface where he can select any datasource e.g. SQL, Oracle, Excel etc. He also specifies the database name. He is displayed all the tables and columns under those tables. He selects columns from those table boxes and write the query he wants, with where clause, if required.
I am saving these query in a table, storing column names in another table where we map those oringinal column names with columns of another table, wehre we want to store actual result set of the prepared query by the user.
for examaple ..
if user preapare query like - 'SELECT CUST_ID, CUST_NAME FROM CUSTOMER
WHERE CUST_ID = 10'
In case of above query I will store CUST_ID in column COL1 of table TAB1 and CUST_NAME in COL2 of table TAB1, like that we have such fifty columns in that table. Now question is here every thing is dynamic data provider, database, tables, columns and where clause, then how can get the result set out of those queries and store that query output in the that storage table with columns col1, col2 and so on, upto 50 columns.
Please help me on this, as it is so urgent.
I will be very much thankful to you people.
Thanks & regards,
Praveen Kadam

Hello,
I have the following query which grabs monthly usage data which is logged to a database table from a web page:
SELECT Button = CASE ButtonClicked
WHEN 1 THEN '1st Button'
WHEN 2 THEN '2nd Button'
WHEN 3 THEN '3rd Button'
WHEN 4 THEN '4th Button'
WHEN 5 THEN '5th Button'
WHEN 6 THEN '6th Button'
WHEN 7 THEN '7th Button'
WHEN 8 THEN '8th Button'
WHEN 9 THEN '9th Button'
ELSE 'TOTAL'
END,
COUNT(*) AS [Times Clicked]
FROM WebPageUsageLog (NOLOCK)
WHERE DateClicked BETWEEN @firstOfMonth AND @lastOfMonth
GROUP BY ButtonClicked WITH ROLLUP
ORDER BY ButtonClicked
The results look like this:
TOTAL 303
1st Button 53
2nd Button 177
3rd Button 10
4th Button 4
6th Button 18
7th Button 19
8th Button 21
9th Button 1
If a button is never clicked in a given month, it never gets logged to the table. In this example, the 5th button was not clicked during the month of December, so it does not appear in the results. I want to modify my query so it displays the name of the button and a zero (in this case "5th Button 0") in the results for any buttons that were not clicked. For some reason I am drawing a blank on how to do this. Thanks in advance.

I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value
----------- -----
colB 123
colA XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly..Below is what I have:
CREATE TABLE myTable (colA VARCHAR(3), colB VARCHAR(3), colC VARCHAR(3))
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('ABC', '123', '0X')
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('XYZ', '789', 'X0')
;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT CAST(PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC) AS SMALLINT) pos, STUFF(colC, 1, PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC), '') colC
FROM myTable

I have this query in a stored procedure. I will simplify it so that it shows the issue I am having.
I have two tables. One table has a PK called PRSubLineID. the other table has that in a foreign key.
I did a query like this using the IN Statement
SELECT PRSubLineID, PRSUBLINENumber, f2, f3,
FROM PRSUBLINES PRSL
WHERE PRSL.PRSUBLINENumber LIKE '%test%'
AND PRSL.PRSubLineID NOT IN
(SELECT CSL.PRSUBLineID FROM CtrSubLines CSL)
This is supposed to select those items from one table with a PRSubLineNumber containing the work Test which has a primary key that has not been used as a foreign key in the other table. However I am getting an empty resultset back.
But when I comment out the "And" and end the query after '%test%', Like this:
SELECT PRSubLineID, PRSUBLINENumber, f2, f3,
FROM PRSUBLINES PRSL
WHERE PRSL.PRSUBLINENumber LIKE '%test%'
I show a resultset containing three records whose PRSubLineID' s are 2384, 2385, 2386.
But when I add this query to the query window:
Select * FROM CtrSubLines CSL WHERE CSL.PRSubLineID in (2384, 2385, 2386)
I also get a null resultset. So hoping to decipher what was going on I changed the initial query to look like this.
SELECT PRSubLineID, PRSUBLINENumber, f2, f3,
FROM PRSUBLINES PRSL
WHERE PRSL.PRSUBLINENumber LIKE '%test%'
AND PRSL.PRSubLineID /*NOT*/ IN
(SELECT CSL.PRSUBLineID FROM CtrSubLines CSL)
And this still returned a null result set.
Basically this is saying that my PRSubLineIDs are neither included nor excluded in the set of all values of PRSubLineID in the CtrSubLines table. But that is simply impossible.

Hello,
I am inserting some data from a temp to an existing table. The existing table has a primary key that is a number that just appears to be number 1-460 (there are 460 rows in the table). The data type for the primary key is int.
When I insert from my temp table to the existing I want to be able to add the next number in but am not sure how I can set that up??
I have pasted my code below. I am inserting into Lab_test_add_conf and the primary key value is lab_test_conf_id. In my select statement where I am getting the values to input I just put a number for now but that isn't going to work. You can ignore the rest of the numbers I have inserted and commas with no values I actually need to go add those to the temp table and just set their default values but I just first wanted to determine how I can create an autonumber. This is a third party software so I don't want to change the actual datatype of the existing table.
Insert Into Lab_Test_Add_Conf
(lab_test_conf_id,system_id,labtest_key,value_code,
value_description,value_code_system,value_type,units,sequence_number,table_name,
field_name,created_by,create_timestamp,modified_by,modify_timestamp,row_timestamp)
select '460','2250',labtestkey,valuecode,value_description,'L',value_type,units,
sequence_number,table_name,field_name,'58',,'58',,
from #TempLabTestConfigImport

Database in:SqlServer builtin interface with VS05
Using:ASP.NET VISUAL STUDIO 2005
I want to create a unique ID that identifies a row.
Id:STU+(SeqNumber) for Student and
Id:EMP+(SeqNumber) for Employee
[Question]:But how can i create sequence number and store it for use like that of ORACLE
Current Idea:Based on registration info if type is student generate STU+seq num and insert to table along with username and other details and if employee like wise.
So a procedure will receive this from user and append that with seqnumber and stores that in the table

Hi. I am trying to figure out the code for sorting a manual (non-identity) number column in my table. the purpose is to
show the user's pictures in perfect order (1,2,3,4,5,6...).
The Jist of my problem... When a user first inserts six pictures, he gets:
|1|
|2|
|3|
|4|
|5|
|6|
All is good. But, say he deletes picture |3|. Now the list order looks like this:
|1|
|2|
<- |3| is removed
|4|
|5|
|6|
And, then he inserts two more pictures, now he his this:
|1|
|2|
|4|
|5|
|6|
|7| <- |7| & |8| are added
|8|
What i want to acheive is a "reshuffling" of the number order every time a picture is removed. So, when |3| is removed, |4| becomes |3|, |5| becomes |4| and so on. There should never be a gap in the order.
I am new to stored procedures, and have been trying to figure this out. Below is my guesswork:
Code:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.sp_NewPersonalPic
(
@photo_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_location VARCHAR(100) = NULL,
@photo_size VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@user_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_caption VARCHAR(150) = NULL,
@photo_default BIT = NULL,
@photo_private BIT = NULL,
@photo_number INTEGER = NULL,
@photo_date DATETIME = NULL
)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT @photo_date = CONVERT(DATETIME,convert(char(26), getdate(), 109))
END
BEGIN
SET @photo_number = 1
SELECT
@photo_number = (
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM dbo.PersonalPhotos b
WHERE
a.photo_date < b.photo_date
)
FROM
dbo.PersonalPhotos a
ORDER BY
a.photo_date
END
BEGIN
My thinking is that it would be a safe bet to use the "photo_date" column as a litmus for my "photo_number" column (ie, the most recent record inserted by the user will always be at a later date than the previously inserted record). So:
photo_number photo_date
|1| 2006-06-26 21:43:36.653
|2| 2006-06-26 21:43:50.000
|3| 2006-06-26 21:45:25.217
|4| 2006-06-26 21:45:33.763
|5| 2006-06-26 22:39:42.670
|6| 2006-06-26 22:39:49.200
If |3| is removed above, the numbers are reordered based on the time of entry sequence.
Any suggestions on how to acheive this in my stored procedure? Currenly, i get the correct order, but it goes crazy when i delete and add.
Thanks and sorry for the verbose post.

Can anyone help me figure out how to set up a new table using SSIS with a record field that will generate a unique number? The record number is also the primary key in the table. I did this about a year ago with a bit of help, but once you get the language right and initiate the creation, the text for defining the table is no longer available. I have seen a lot of references for MySQL and MS SQL 2000 and an AUTO_Generate or a UNIQUE ID. None of this works within MS SQL 2005 in SSIS.
Thanks!
Jim

Hi,
We are building an application with
a database that contains Jobs. These Jobs have properties like Name, Code etc.
and some custom properties, definable by the application admin. For bulk import
of Jobs, we want to allow the import of an Excel sheet with the columns Name,
Code and a variable amount of columns. If the header names of these columns in
the Excel sheet match the name of a custom property in the system we want to add
the value of that cell into the database as property
value.
In our Data Flow of our Import
Package in SSIS we added an Excel Source that points to a test excel sheet with
the Name and Code columns and €“ for this example - 3 custom property columns
(Area, Department, Job Family). When we configure the Excel Source in the Excel
Source Editor, we have the option to select the Columns from the Available
External Columns table. But here lays the problem, we do not know at design
time, what custom property columns to expect. We DO expect the Name and Code
columns, but the rest is uncertain at design-time.
That raises the question: Is there
some way to select all of any incoming columns (something like a SELECT * in
T-SQL)? This looks like a big problem since it would mean that the .DTSX XML that is
being generated at design-time would need to be updated at run-time to reflect
the variability of the columns that might be encountered while reading the excel
sheet.
Then, we thought, we could add a Script
Component to our data flow that passes some kind of DataSet (or DataReader) in
which we can walk through the columns ourselves? But then still, we miss the
option to include ANY of the columns while reading an Excel sheet (or any other
datasource by the looks of it)
We are aware of the option of
optional columns in combination with the RaggedRight option, but it seems that
we would have to put all of the columns of a row in just one column and then
extract all the columns later with Derived Columns. But then, since the source
import file is being prepared by an application admin, we want don€™t want to
burden him with this horrendous task of putting everything in one
column.
We would like to have some way of
iterating through all the columns, either in a Script Component or maybe with a
Pivot/Unpivot mechanism.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there other options we should have considered?
