DB Engine :: Joining 3 Or More Multi-tables Using Views
Sep 8, 2015
I am new to programming trying hard to learn. I made a code for Views in mssql for the 2 tables below:I am wondering if I could make it 3, 4 or more tables at the same time. How can incorporate in the following codes I made.
Create View vwEmployeeInfoByGender
as
Select FirstName, MiddleName, FamilyName, Gender, BirthDate,
MaritalStatus
from tblEmployeeInfo
join tblGender
on tblEmployeeInfo.GenderID
= tblGender.GenderID
I am learning the Optimizer from the book "Querying Microsoft SQL Server 2012" for certificate exam 70-461. I really cannot understand how it explains the number of possible ways to execute a query joining three tables. the pseudo-query is:
SELECT A.col5, SUM(C.col6) AS col6sum FROM TableA AS A INNER JOIN TableB AS B ON A.col1 = B.col1 INNER JOIN TableC AS C ON B.col2 = c.col2 WHERE A.col3 = constant 1 AND B.col4 = constant2 GROUP BY A.col5;
The book says:"Start with the FROM part. Which tables should SQL Server join first, TableA and TableB or TableB and TableC? And in each join, which of the two tables joined should be the left and which one the right table? The number of all possibilities is six, if the two joins are evaluated linearly, one after another."
Q1: How could it be six possibilities? From my understanding, lets say, if the SQL Server has to join A and B first, and then join C, in this case I can think of 4 possibilities, which are:
1. When A Join B, Left: A, Right: B. When Join C, Left: result of A join B, Right: C
2. When A Join B, nbsp; When Join C, nbsp;When A Join B, nbsp; When Join C, nbsp;When A Join B, nbsp; When Join C, "line-height:13.5px;">
Q2: The section following the previous question says there are 4 different types of join.."This already gives four options for each join. So far, there are 6 x 4 = 24 different options for only the FROM part of this query."
How can it be 6 x 4? My understanding is 4 is only for 1 join, but in our case, there are 2 joins, so it should be 6 x 4 x 4.
Hi, I am new to sql and I am trying to join 2 views using MySQL Query Browser. Here is my query and the issues I am having.
SELECT book_month, region_book, product_group as base_prod_group, cnt as base_cnt FROM collections.v_nonpay_trend_base a join collections.v_nonpay_trend_npdata b on (a.book_month=b.disc_check_in_month and a.region_book=b.region and a.base_prod_group=b.product_group)
Error - "Column 'product_group' in field list is ambiguous" and "Column 'cnt' in field list is ambiguous"
Both views have columns named 'product_group' and 'cnt'
Can someone please let me know what I am doing wrong?
create view myidtitlenew as SELECT c1.messageid_, c1.title_, c1.list_, c1.created_ FROM outmail_ c1 inner join (Select max(messageid_) as messageid_, max(title_) as title_ FROM outmail_ c1 where list_ = 'copd' GROUP BY substring([title_],1,charindex(' ',[title_])-1) ) c2
ON c1.messageid_ = c2.messageid_ go
create view mymembersum as select distinct list_, membertype_ , count(*) as cnt from Members_ where list_='copd' group by membertype_,list_ go
I have 2 views that I can join to give me the recordset I want. Both views are currently filtered on a particular column (ie 'WHERE colName = myValue')
The problem is that I want to use this from a web page with user input in which the user would specify myValue.
Is there any alternative to having two views? Can I combine them into one SQL statement? Access allowed me to do it by specifying an alias for a select statement, then joining this to another. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I guess what I want to do it specify one view then another, then join them - all in the same statement!
Something like this:
Code:
SELECT view1.*, view2.* FROM ((SELECT tbl1.*,tbl2.*,tbl3.* FROM tbl1 JOIN tbl2 ON tbl1.id = tbl2.tbl1_id JOIN tbl3 ON tbl2.id = tbl3.tbl2_id AND tbl3.id = myValue) AS view1) ((SELECT tbl4.* FROM tbl4 WHERE tbl4.id = myValue) AS view2) RIGHT JOIN view1 ON view2....
Hi guys,I detected a strange behaviour when doing an inner join of two views.There is table_Objects, table_Contracts and view_Objects, View_Contracts.Table_Objects: ID, PriceView_Objects: Select * from Table_Objects Where Price > 10Table_Contracts: ID, YearView_Contracts: Select c.ID, c.YearFrom Table_Contracts c Join View_Objects o on c.id=o.idQuiete simple so far, but it doesn't work. Imagine Object with id 3 that is shown in View_Objects and Table_Contracts but not shown in View_Contracts. How is that possible?EDIT: Sometimes its shown, sometimes notThx for your reply!
Ok, What I want to achieve is plain stuff, I want to join 2 views on a common key.It all works well with the SQL2000 Query Analyzer, but not trough ADO.NET or should I say my webapplication.With that I mean that my query return rows when executed from SQL2000 Query Analyzer, But not when used in my application or Executed from the Visual Studio Server Explorer.I have struggled with this one for several hours, I cant get this one right.So lets bring in the one who actually know what his doing View1: 1 select 2 cast((PS.RabattProsent/100.00)*PS.Pris AS decimal(11,2)) AS Rabatt 3 ,cast((PS.MVAProsent/100.00)*PS.Pris AS decimal(11,2)) AS MVA 4 ,cast(PS.Antall * ((PS.Pris*(100-PS.RabattProsent))/100)*((PS.MvaProsent/100.00)+1) AS decimal(11,2)) AS Belop 5 ,PS.* 6 ,K.Kunde_ID 7 FROM 8 tbl_ProduktSalg AS PS 9 INNER JOIN 10 tbl_Ordre AS O 11 ON 12 O.Ordre_ID = PS.Ordre_ID 13 INNER JOIN 14 tbl_Kunde AS K 15 ON 16 K.Kunde_ID = O.Kunde_IDView2: 1 SELECT 2 PS.Ordre_ID 3 ,SUM(cast((PS.RabattProsent/100.00)*PS.Pris AS decimal(11,2))) AS TotalRabatt 4 ,SUM(cast(PS.Antall * ((PS.Pris*(100-PS.RabattProsent))/100)*((PS.MvaProsent/100.00)+1) AS decimal(11,2))) AS TotalBelop 5 ,SUM(PS.Pris) AS TotalPris 6 ,SUM(cast((PS.MVAProsent/100.00)*PS.Pris AS decimal(11,2))) AS TotalMVA 7 FROM 8 tbl_ProduktSalg AS PS 9 GROUP BY 10 PS.Ordre_ID MyQuery/SPRC: 1 create procedure %PROC% (@Kunde_ID int, @Ordre_ID int) 2 as 3 begin 4 SELECT 5 v_PSD.* 6 ,v_OTS.TotalRabatt 7 ,v_OTS.TotalBelop 8 ,v_OTS.TotalPris 9 ,v_OTS.TotalMVA 10 FROM 11 v_ProduktSalgDetaljer AS v_PSD 12 INNER JOIN 13 v_OrdreTotalSum AS v_OTS 14 ON 15 v_OTS.Ordre_ID = v_PSD.Ordre_ID 16 WHERE 17 v_PSD.Kunde_ID = @Kunde_ID 18 AND 19 v_PSD.Ordre_ID = @Ordre_ID 20 21 end 22
Over the years I've read and experienced where joining more then 5 tables can lead to performance problems. This number can vary based upon the amount of data in each table, if and how indexes are used and the complexity of the query, but 5 has always been a good rule of thumb. Unfortunately I do not know what rule to apply in regards to joing views.
A developer has experienced timeout problems periodically when opening a view in EM or when running the code which makes-up the view. I decided to look at the view and noticed it references tables and views, which reference more views, which in turn reference other views. In all the initial view references 5 tables and 8 views directly and indirectly, with some of the views containing function calls. What are your thoughts on how many views and tables are too many when it comes to joins and query performance.
I have some simple views that bind to an Access forms for use in the detail side of Master/Detail forms.
The views are of the style:
SELECT *.OrderDetails, Products.TotalUnitsInStock AS UsefulReferenceInfo
FROM OrderDetails LEFT OUTER JOIN Products ON ..........
Using a database in SQL 2000, opening the view to directly insert values into the OrderDetails columns works perfectly, and Access correctly determines that there is an IDENTITY column that is the Primary Key. Insert works perfectly, form work perfectly.
Using the same SQL script to build a database in SQL 2005 the view doesn't detect that the column is an IDENTITY column so any attempt to insert data fails with the error "Invalid input parameter values. Check the status values for detail." Insert fails, form also doesn't work.
I have tested this in Access 2002, 2003 and 2007 B2TR and all give the same results so it seems to be a breaking change in SQL 2005.
It is easy to see when there is going to be trouble because the tell-tale '(Auto Number)' or more recently '(New)' text is missing from the appropriate identity column.
This is fairly inconvenient and breaks quite a lot of my Master/detail forms that use this design pattern.
Can anybody from the SQL team help shed some light on this for my.
We have are SQL 2014 Standard edition, I have a situation where-in I plan to partition a table now since table partition is not supported in standard version I thought about Partitioned views however now I am stuck where I cant make the view writable because of the identity column in the base table.
I wanted to know if there's a limit on how many targets I can manage in Multi Server Administration.In addition, are there any known limits regarding managing SQL instances with different versions (SQL 2005,2008,2008R2 and 2012).
When I right in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio on the database > Take Offline
Set offline failed for Database 'OperationsManagerAC'.
Transaction (Process ID 56) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. ALTER DATABASE statement failed. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1205)
So I am trying with some queries to pass the database from Single user to multi user but it fails

Rerun the transaction. Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 ALTER DATABASE statement failed.
I tried also
alter DATABASE OperationsManagerAC SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
IT FAILS AS WELL... with the same error... how to run the SQL Statements without using

I have created 3 views, which I then want to join to produce an overall result. The first view returns customer details, along with payment information. The next two views return values only when the customer has purchased extras outside our standard product i.e. if there is no purchase of an extra, then nothing is written to the extra's table. When I join the views together they only return values where data has been matched in all 3 views i.e. extra's have been purchased. Any data that did not match in all 3 view (i.e. no extra's purchased) is either ignored or dropped from the results. So I need my script to return all values even if no data exists in the two extra views.
My scripts are as follows: Main View SELECT CUSTOMER_POLICY_DETAILS.POLICY_DETAILS_ID, CUSTOMER_POLICY_DETAILS.HISTORY_ID, CUSTOMER_POLICY_DETAILS.AUTHORISATIONUSER, CUSTOMER_POLICY_DETAILS.AUTHORISATIONDATE, ACCOUNTS_TRANSACTION.TRANSACTION_CODE_ID, CUSTOMER_INSURED_PARTY.SURNAME, SYSTEM_INSURER.INSURER_DEBUG, SYSTEM_SCHEME_NAME.SCHEMENAME, CUSTOMER_POLICY_DETAILS.POLICYNUMBER, --TotalPayable IsNull(SUM(CASE LIST_TRAN_BREAKDOWN_TYPE.IncludeInTotal WHEN 1 THEN ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.AMOUNT ELSE 0 END), 0) AS TotalPayable, --NetPremium IsNull(SUM(CASE ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.Tran_Breakdown_Type_ID WHEN 'NET' THEN ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.AMOUNT ELSE 0 END), 0) AS NetPremium, --IPT IsNull(SUM(CASE WHEN SubString(ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.Premium_Section_ID, 1, 3) = 'TAX' THEN ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.AMOUNT ELSE 0 END), 0) AS IPT, --Fee IsNull(SUM(CASE ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.Tran_Breakdown_Type_ID WHEN 'FEE' THEN ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.AMOUNT ELSE 0 END), 0) AS Fee, --TotalCommission IsNull(SUM(CASE WHEN SubString(ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.Tran_Breakdown_Type_ID, 4, 4) = 'COMM' THEN ACCOUNTS_TRAN_BREAKDOWN.AMOUNT ELSE 0 END), 0) AS TotalCommission

Hi. I'm new to SQL, and need to join 2 tables... any hints??? table1:id (int)title(varchar(50))body(text) table2:id (int)title(varchar(50))body(text) somehow need to get the id, which table the record is from, and the title and body... so if the tables had the information: table1:id title body1 "first title" "first body"2 "second title" "second body"3 "third title" "third body" table2:id title body1 "first title" "first body"2 "second title" "second body"3 "third title" "third body" I would like to get... id table title body3 1 "third title" "third body"3 2 "third title" "third body"2 1 "second title" "second body"2 2 "second title" "second body"1 1 "first title" "first body"1 2 "first title" "first body" Does anyone know how to get this? I am fairly flexible if i need to change things... cheers, eh!
Hello everyone,I'm starting a new project right now and am trying to cut down on the number of stored procedures and tables I'm gonna have to use and I have run into a dead end.Up till now I have been doing the following: Say I had a PRODUCTS table with a DesignId column and ColorId column. I would then create a DESIGN table (Name, Id) and a COLOR table (Name, Id) to INNER JOIN with the two columns in my PRODUCTS table. And the same goes for all my other tables: ORDERS, CUSTOMERS, LINKS etc...... And in the end I would have a lot of tables and stored procedures for these category columns. So I thought, it would be nice to just have a Categories and Subcategories table for all my category columns for the whole website. That way every time I need to define a category column for any table I can simply just add the values to my Categories and Subcategories table instead of having to create a new table for every category column. Everything is fine and dandy except for trying to INNER JOIN these two tables with more than one column. To get values for one column is no problem:<code> SELECT *, _SubCategories.SubCategoryNameFROM _ProductsINNER JOIN _SubCategoriesON _Products.DesignId = _SubCategories.SubCategoryIdWHERE DesignId = COALESCE (@DesignId, DesignId)</code> But how do you INNER JOIN the ColorId column as well. Both DesignId and ColorId values are in my _SubCategories table. In a stored procedure: Is there any way to create a table and columns. Run a loop statement, with one INNER JOIN . Rerun another loop statement with a new INNER JOIN statement? Would that work or does any one else have an idea what would?Thank you guys for the help. It is much appreciated. Alec
Hello all, I have two datatables "customersReached " and "customersGuessed " and I want to combine them into one table only, the problem is that one table exeeded to the other by two fields, so what can I do??????? Mahmoudona
I've been trying to think about how I can do this. I have forums that I have written built around SQL Server. Basicly you have:
-A users Table -A Posts Table -A Replies Table.
Posts and replies have very similar structures. I'd like to be able to merge them and pick out the earliest post for said forum.
1 - is there a way to merge them so that the post date for both the replies and posts tables is contained in 1 column. If not is there a better alternative.
I'd also like to add indexing to the posts so I can do paging. Is there a way for me to add an index number to them while I can sort them anyway i want.
I am using MS SQL Server 2005 on Windows XP with SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP. I am having issues with my query on joining 2 tables I created using BETWEEN to restrict the Salary. Table 1 is called Employee and Table 2 is called Job_title. The column Job_title_code is the only column that is in both tables which is how I am joining both tables. Here is my SQL query:
Code:
SELECT Employee.*, Job_title.*
From Employee
INNER JOIN Job_title
ON Employee.Job_title_code=Job_title.Job_title_code
WHERE Salary
BETWEEN 50000 AND 500000;
The results I am getting back are:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 7 Invalid column name 'Job_title_code'.
I can't figure out how to fix this error. I feel like I have tried everything, so any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.
Hi, I have a table with fields as partnerid, contractno. The partnerid field has the Id number which can be a supplier or a customer. I need to get the partner id(supplier) and the partner id (customers) of that particular supplier only. I tried with self join but the data is data is replicating.
Data in table PId ContractNo 20045 1567 435 1567 123 1567 345 1678 1004 1678
I need to display the data in the following format.
jack 20 Melbourne AAA Nick 30 Bendigo BBB Russ 28 Sydney AAA Marty 31 Perth AAA
Table 3
name age city Position
jack 20 Melbourne Manager Nick 30 Bendigo Manager Russ 28 Sydney Clerk Marty 31 Perth Manager
Table 4
name age city datejoined
jack 20 Melbourne 09-09-2001 Nick 30 Bendigo 08-05-2001 Russ 28 Sydney 10-12-2000 Marty 31 Perth 11-11-1999
I want a query which extract the name, age and city from Table 2 (where name,age and city equals table1 values) and position from table3 where position is 'manager' else return null and date joined from table 4 only for the managers else return null.
so the result should be
name age city position datejoined
jack 20 Melbourne Manager 09-09-2001 Nick 30 Bendigo Manager 08-05-2001 Russ 28 Sydney null null
my query
SELECT b. name, b.age, b.city,b.company,c.position,d.datejoined FROM Table1 a, Table2 b, Table3 c, Table4 d WHERE a.age=b.age and a.name=b.name and a.city=b.city and b.age*=c.age and b.name*=c.name and b.city*=c.city and b.position='Manager' and b.age*=d.age and b.name*=d.name and b.city*=d.city
THE RESULT IS
jack 20 Melbourne Manager 09-09-2001 Nick 30 Bendigo Manager 08-05-2001 Russ 28 Sydney null 10-12-2000
When I try to join table4 with table i am getting a exception
Ps: as the original code was in SQL SERVER 6.5 I have to use *= for joins not keywords LEFT JOIN or RIGHT JOIN
I have a bit of an issue that I can not seem to figure out and was hoping to get some feedback/advice from you all.
First a little background. I have two databases and I am adding a new table too one of them. However I need to join the two databases but by columns and the columns I want to use to join them will use different data types and values.
Example database 1 column 1 will be groups.group.id and database 2 column 1 will be users.group.id. However in database 2 (users) the group_id will contain different data.
Database 1 group.id will contain a single integer and database 2 group.id I want to have it contain multiple integers seperated by a comma.
Example code: select groups.group.id, groups.group.name from groups, users where groups.disabled='1' and users.user_id = $user_id and groups.group.id ? users.group.id
The "?" is where I am having trouble. Does anyone know of a way to join two databases by columns using different data types?
Hi, i have some sql experience and can link tables but the link i am trying to get is not displaying how i need it to
here is the code i am using, which display logical results, but not the ones i need :P
qry = "SELECT * FROM wce_contact INNER JOIN wce_mailer_link ON wce_contact.UNIQUEID = wce_mailer_link.Contactid LEFT JOIN wce_mailer ON wce_mailer.uniqueid = wce_mailer_link.mailerid RIGHT JOIN wce_mailer_attachments ON wce_mailer_attachments.uniqueid = wce_mailer.fileid WHERE wce_contact.uniqueid = '"& Request.QueryString("id") &"'"
Ok i have these tables
wce_contact This has the contacts name and address
wce_mailer This holds the details of the mailer and a link to the wce_mailer_attachments, there would be multiple rows in wce_mailer_attachments table which link to 1 row in wce_mailer.
wce_mailer_link This holds the wce_contact uniqueid, and the wce_mailer uniqueid. there will be many contacts to many mailers
wce_mailer_attachments This holds an individual row for one attachment, but the uniqueid would be the same for multiple rows, Dependant on how many attachments the users adds. i.e. one mailer could have several attachments, they would all have the same uniqueid.
Basically the results i am getting using the join i built are displaying each attachment as a separate row when i display the mailers assigned to a contacts record. i need them to display in one single row where the uniqueids are the same in the wce_mailer_attachments and they match the only fileid in wce_mailer.
Hi all! I have a problem joining three tables. My tables are: rooms: room_id ¦ room_name computers: computer_id ¦ computer_name ¦ room_id bookings: booking_id ¦ computer_id ¦ date
I want to join them so that i get a listing that displays all room names, and if there is a booking for any computer in that room I also want to display the computer name and the booking date next to the room name. If one room has bookings for several computers I would like to display that room several times.
I have gotten a correct result with:
SELECT rooms.room_name, t.computer_name, temp.date FROM rooms LEFT JOIN (SELECT computers.room_id, computers.computer_name, bookings.date FROM computers JOIN bookings ON (bookings.computer_id = computers.computer_id)) AS temp ON (rooms.room_id = temp.room_id)
but I would like to use something shorter like: SELECT rooms.room_name, computers.computer_name, bookings.date from computers INNER JOIN bookings ON (computers.computer_id = bookings.computer_id) RIGHT JOIN rooms ON (computers.room_ID = rooms.room_ID)
That however gives me a list where every combination of rooms and computers is listed and bookings displayed when there is a match. I don't really get why this doesn't work and I've been staring at it for days. Could somebody help me out? (I'm using PHP and MySQL)
Let say i have 3 tables (tblA, tblB, tblC). I want to get all data in tblA. At the same time, i want to join the tables. If value in column aStatus equal to 1, it will get the value from tblB. If the column value is 2, it will refer to tblC. Else, if it 0, no need to refer to any table. just like inner join.. but i dun get the logic of how im going to do that.. can someone advise me on how to do the joining? please refer to picture below.
Not sure if this as straight forward as it sounds!
Everytime I create new fields on our DB it creates new tables(our customer units have changed). What I need to do is pull the customer units from both tables into the same column. Is there a way to do this?
I am having trouble building a query that joins three tables. The tables are:
Table------------key fields Organizations---org_KEY (all fields start with org_) Locations-------LOC_KEY--LOC_ORG_KEY (all fields start with loc_) Users-----------USR_ORG_KEY----USR_LOC_KEY (all fields start with usr_)
Every location record is tied to a record in the organization table. (Via loc_key=org_key) Each user record belongs to one organization and one location. (usr_org_key=org_key and usr_loc_key=loc_key) Not all locations have a user. So if there is no user for any location ,I need the address info.
I need a result that is of all organizations, Locations and users Not all locations have a user but they all have address information eg (loc_address1, loc_city, etc....)
OK this is probably a really simple question, but I need to join three tables and I dont understand which types of "JOIN"s to use or how to lay it all out. Just as an example, this is what i want to do:
(table_name | field1, field2,)
kids_tbl | id, first_name, hair, eyes
hair_tbl | id, hair_color
eye_tbl | id, eye_color
So I want to replace the hair and eye color in the kids_tbl (which are numbers corresponding with the ids in the other tables) with the actual word from the correct table.
I have been reading up on this but it just isn't making sense to me.
Hi! I am trying to join two tables and use BETWEEN to restrict record selection. I have a table called, employee and a table called jobs. How do I write a query where I join the two and restrict the record selection by using the employee's salaries?
