enable or shortcut key for Auto Database or Table View while coding. When I wrote sample code like below
SELECT * FROM VENKAT.
When I type V then I need to know there is Venkat Database with pop Message below.
Hello Everyone,
I have a line of VB / SQL Server code as follows:
Dim Command As New SqlClient.SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER_MEET WHERE (MT_WEEK = CURRENT WEEK OF THE YEAR) AND (MT_DATE = TODAY'S DATE)", conn).
My problem here is how to code today's date in a format like this - October, 09 2007. The MT_DATE column on the database table has Varchar datatype - Varchar(21).
Your help highly appreciated. Thanks.
i'm using ms sql server 2008 r2 advanced express.
i have a select statement that generates my google shopping feed.
is there a way to get this statement run automatically and export the results to a tab delimited csv file?
i'm currently using an asp script to create an xml file for the feed, but it's putting too much strain on the server.
When I type Select statemet like below, Tables names are not populate auto. I need to type full lenght instead of selection in list.
Ex: I have few tables and database in my schema and need to select while coding.
select * from (Table Name) When i type first char in the table space it will not populate list of tables in my sql studio.
Along with the data that I am pulling back from query, I also need to provide an ImportID column with the following requirements:
YYMMDDGP0001, YYMMDDGP0002, YYMMDDGP0003, and so on. The 0001, 0002, and 0003 part could get big into the hundreds of thousands.
I have the YYMMDDGP part down with the following expression:
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(6), GETDATE(), 12) + 'GP' AS [ImportID]
Now I need to get the Auto Incrementing number part of this. I have been researching this trying SELECT INTO a temp table using the Identity Function and declaring different variables all with no luck.
Due to localization I have the need to make child tables, where there is a composite Primary Key, between the Id column and the LanguageSign column. On the parent table the Id column is Identity column with auto increment.
The problem is that during the select into query to copy columns from parent to child, this auto increment behaviour of the parent-Id is copied to the child-Id. However I do not want that, because the same Id will be used by different LanguageSign entries
Is there a way to use 'select into' without copying the auto increment, or is my only option to make a whole new column without auto increment on the child and copy the records?
btw I have used this statement
SET
IDENTITY_INSERT MyTable
ON , so that inserting into the Id column is possible. I can see however that this does not take away the auto increment...
I am wondering if there is a direct query in this case:
I am developing a program to a company which simply sells services
One service may have different prices for different types of clients
The price of any service for any client can change at any time, and I should be able to trace these changes at any time
I made the following tables (simplified): (asterisk for primary key)
(Table) (Fields)
CLIENT_TYPES : ID*, ClientTypeName
SERVICES : ID*, ServiceName
PRICES : ServiceID*, ClientTypeID*, Price, Date*
ORDERS : ID*, Date, ClientTypeID
ORDER_SERVICES : OrderID*, ServiceID*
The field in bold is the area of the question
This is a sample data in the PRICES table:
ServiceID ClientTypeID Price Date1 1 100 1/1/20072 1 150 1/1/20071 2 90 1/1/20072 2 135 1/1/2007
Now if I want to update a price of service 1 for clienttype 1, I add the following row:
1 1 100 1/1/2008
So one product for one client can have any number of prices with different dates
The following query:
SELECT * FROM PRICES WHERE ClientTypeID = 1
will retrieve all prices with repeats for a specific client (#1 here)
What I want is a query to retrieve the most recent prices for specific client for all products, even if a query on query
If there is commemts on table design please tell me
thanks for any one who provides help
I have a report that includes two multi-valued parameters.
In the Default Values section, I choose 'from query' and select dataset and value field.
In the Available Values section, I choose 'from query' select the same dataset and value field, and in the label field I select the relevant label field.
When I run the report my multi-valued parameters look like I selected the option 'select all' (all options are selected).
How can I keep the multi-valued parameters cleared from selections until the user select his choice? Thanks in advance.
This should be terribly simply, but I just can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong. I have a table that logs usage of a few software licenses in my division, so it has columns for the username, the license, and the date/time checked out and date/time checked in. I have written a quick SQL query that totals how much time all the users have spent in three of the licenses during this work week. It works fine. But now I just want to limit that query to those users who have used those licenses for more than two hours.
Sounds simple enough, but I must be overlooking something obvious. I have tried [Minutes]>120 in both a WHERE and a HAVING statement, but neither worked. I have also tried changing the name of the column to something other than Minutes in the off case that there might be some kind of keyword confusion, but it didn't work. I have also tried various other unlikely fixes but continually get the error "Invalid Column Name 'Minutes'".
Any help would be very appreciated since this is driving me nuts. The code that works is below.
Declare @datMin datetime
Declare @datMax datetime
set @datMin=DateAdd(mi,
-(DatePart(hh,Getdate())*60 + DatePart(mi,GetDate())),--Gets the current minute of the day
DateAdd(dd,-datepart(dw,GetDate())+1,GetDate()))--Gets First Day of the Week at this time
set @datMax=DateAdd(mi,
1439-(DatePart(hh,Getdate())*60 + DatePart(mi,GetDate())),
GetDate())
Select UserName, Sum(Case
When DateOut<@datMin and DateIn<@datMax and DateIn>@datMax
Then datediff(n, @datMin, DateIn)
When DateOut<@datMin and DateIn>@datMax
Then datediff(n, @datMin, @datMax)
When DateOut>@datMin and DateOut<@datMax and DateIn>@datMax
Then datediff(n, DateOut, @datMax)
Else datediff(n, DateOut, DateIn)
End) as [Minutes]
From [Log]
Where ((DateOut>=@datMin and DateOut<=@datMax)
or (DateIn>=@datMin and DateIn<=@datMax)
or (DateOut<@datMin and DateIn>@datMax))
And (License='Viewer' or License='ARC/INFO' or License = 'Editor')
--And ([Minutes]>120)
Group by UserName
--Having ([Minutes]>120)
Order by [Minutes] desc
Hi
Could anyone tell me how can I set auto increment to a field in MSSQL at design time? So that whenever I insert a new record from VB, it will insert that new record incrementing the field which is not a primary key automatically.
Thank you very much for everyone who are constantly helping me...

I've have a need with SQL Server 2005 (so I've no MERGE statement), I have to merge 2 tables, the target table has 10 fields, the first 4 are the clustered index and primary key, the source table has the same fields and index.Since I can't use the MERGE statement (I'm in SQL 2005) I have to make a double step operation, and INSERT and an UPDATE, I can't figure how to design the WHERE condition for the insert statement.

I have a (1) date field and (2) an auto-incrementing ID field that always throw me errors when I'm doing a programmatic insert.
(1) After doing many searches on the subject, I don't think I'm using the correct syntax for the date and can't find any suggestion that works. Would appreciate your knowledge on correct SQL syntax for inserting a "today's date" field.
(2) I'm using the following code to create a new auto-incrementing ID for each record but it seems that there should be a smoother method to force the field's value to auto-increment. Any ideas?

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I am writing a select query which produces huge xml data.Now i want to read that data from my web application a save it as xml file.
How can i do that.
I am using asp.net vb.net.
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

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

Hi,
ok, i'm building a page to display a list of courses, a user rating and 'last visited' date.
I have 3 tables -
course (a list of all courses)
review (a list of all ratings)
visit (user visits to each course)
I've put together an SQL statment that returns everything i need, however its not quite right.
SELECT course.courseID, course.courseName, course.courseURL, avg(review.fldRating) AS fldAverage, visit.visitDate
FROM course
LEFT OUTER
JOIN review
ON course.courseId = review.fldcourseId
LEFT OUTER
JOIN visit
ON course.courseId = visit.courseId and visit.userId = 2
GROUP BY course.courseId, course.courseName, course.courseURL, visit.visitDate
ORDER BY course.courseId, visit.visitDate DESC
The problem lies with the fact that each time a user enters a course a new record is inserted into the visit table - so the visit table will show how many times a user has entered a course and on which dates.
this SQL statment returns something like this:
------------------------------------------------
course1 | 5 stars | 10/02/05
------------------------------------------------
course1 | 5 stars | 03/02/05
------------------------------------------------
course2 | 4 stars | 01/01/05
because the user has entered course 1 twice, the list is now showing 2 course1's - how can I change the statemtent to only select the most recent user visit, but still keep the complete list of courses?
I'm a bit of an SQL novice, so appologies if I've not explained this very well,
Thanks in advance,

Hi I am trying to figure out how to use the DISCTINCT function in s SELECT Query for one particular column, but output more that the disctinct column
for example:
table 1
Alan Andrews 1 main st 07465
John Andrews 1 main st 07465
Erick Andrews 1 main st 07465
I want to select by disctinct last name, but on my results I want to see all the other fields as well, and not just the last name. In this case the first name address and zip code.
So is there a way of doing this in SQL?
It does not have to be with the DISCTINCT function, but I need to net down to 1 per last name in a select query.
Thanks in advance!

Hello friends,
I want to use select statement in a CASE inside procedure.
can I do it? of yes then how can i do it ?
following part of the procedure clears my requirement.
SELECT E.EmployeeID,
CASE E.EmployeeType
WHEN 1 THEN
select * from Tbl1
WHEN 2 THEN
select * from Tbl2
WHEN 3 THEN
select * from Tbl3
END
FROM EMPLOYEE E
can any one help me in this?
please give me a sample query.
Thanks and Regards,

I am attempting to run update statements within a SELECT CASE statement.
Select case x.field
WHEN 'XXX' THEN
UPDATE TABLE1
SET TABLE1.FIELD2 = 1
ELSE
UPDATE TABLE2
SET TABLE2.FIELD1 = 2
END
FROM OuterTable x
I get incorrect syntax near the keyword 'update'.
I have a webform that lists all items (codes) on the left and selected items (codes) on the right. A user selects an item on the left and clicks a button to move it to the right side. An update changes the bit from 0 to 1. This uses the bit column in the table to determine what is listed on the left (0) or right (1) sides.
Then I can filter in my stored procedure on the bit column WHERE (dbo.tblCodes.CodeSelect = 1)
My problem with this is that if two or more users are doing this process on different sessions, they can trip over each others selections.
I'm hoping someone has a suggestion on how I might avoid the users having this problem.
I am quite new in sql. I am writing a report which takes data of one same column and summing them according to the type as described in another column("TR_1"."TTYPE"). So far I have succeeded to get the sum of only one type at a time (by putting WHERE "TR_1"."TTYPE" = or not equal the desired type). For example: I want to create two columns, one showing the sum of the budget and the other the some of the actuals: here is my SQL instruction (the column "TR_1"."TTYPE" give the record type):
******************************************************************
SELECT SUM("TR_1"."AmountLCU")*-1 "Budget",rtrim("TR_1"."COSTCENTER") "Cost Centre",rtrim("TR_1"."ACCOUNT") "Account Num",rtrim("TR_1"."DONOR") "Donor Num", "TR_1"."AmountLCU"*-1 "Amount","TR_1"."TTYPE", rtrim("TR_1"."ACTIVITY") "Activity Code" FROM "scalaDB"."dbo"."A_GL0601_PREVIOUS" "TR_1"
WHERE NOT ("TR_1"."TTYPE"='' OR "TR_1"."TTYPE"='a' OR "TR_1"."TTYPE"='c') AND NOT ("TR_1"."COSTCENTER"=N'' OR "TR_1"."COSTCENTER"=N'0000') AND (("TR_1"."ACCOUNT">=N'26' AND "TR_1"."ACCOUNT"<N'7100') OR ("TR_1"."ACCOUNT">N'7100' AND "TR_1"."ACCOUNT"<=N'7999'))
GROUP BY "TR_1"."COSTCENTER","TR_1"."ACCOUNT","TR_1"."DONOR","TR_1"."ACTIVITY","TR_1"."AmountLCU","TR_1"."TTYPE"
**********************************************************************
Note: the report is written in Crystal reports and the database is SQL Server (not sure of the version)
Thanks in advance

I am using SQL 7 with an MS Access 2000 MDB front end, using bound formswith ODBC linked tables. In one form, the user needs to be able to check abox to select one or more records. This is accomplished with a local tablecontaining two fields: the primary key value of the SQL table and a booleanfield used for the check box.Since the local table used to contain the boolean field is local to the MDBfile, the result is a heterogeneous join in the underlying form query, whichdegrades performance. I would like to have the entire query be based on backend SQL data. However, each user needs to be able to make a unique set ofselections, without other users' selections affecting theirs.An idea I have is to port the selections table to the back end with anadditional field for machine name; create a view of the main table joined tothe selections table; link the view to the front end; and base the form onthe SQL: "Select * From MyView Where MachineName='MyMachine'".However, I wonder if there's a better approach. Any ideas would beappreciated.Thanks,Neil

I created a package using the import/export wizard in SSIS, that loads data from one database to the other. I am trying to find out how I can add and remove the tables that were originally selected when the package was created. I opened the package in BIDS, and I could not find that particular option. I know you can do this in 2000/DTS...

Hi All,
Don't think this can be done, but a user request, so thought I should ask anyway...
I have report with 11 filters (yes, I know thats overkill, but we aren't using analysis services) and the user has asked, if he wants to run it with the same selection criteria every month, can he do that without having to re-select them all?

This website describes how Merge statements should be optimized by the use of indexes on the target?source tables: [URL]..... It says that a clustered index should be created on the join column in the target and a unique covering index on the source table.
I have read in other articles that insert/delete/update statements perform worse on tables with clustered indexes as the leaf level pages will have to be reorganized.
Why in the case of Merge statement having a indexes actually improve the performance of insert/delete/update statements?
