DatePart Function In ANSI SQL
Jan 17, 2007
Hi folks,
How can I re-write the following code in ANSI SQL code:
select cast(datepart(month, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar) + '/' +
cast(datepart(day, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar) + '/'+ cast(datepart(year, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar), event_instance_id, max(time_stamp)
from usmuser.usm_sli_event_data
where event_instance_id=10019
group by cast(datepart(month, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar) + '/' +
cast(datepart(day, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar) + '/'+
cast(datepart(year, dateadd(second, time_stamp, '1/1/1970 00:00:00')) as varchar),
event_instance_id
order by event_instance_id
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I'm curren't writing a stored procedure for my sql server express database and need to display the year part of a date field as '04' but using the DatePart function it will only display as '2004'? Is it possible to get the Year part of the date to display showing the last 2 digits of the Year only? I don't require another part of the date field just the Year part. All help is well come.
Code been used is shown below:

The function "DATEPART(wk, [valid_date])" appears to have the following bug:
DATEPART(wk, date) returns week 53 for the following dates (checked years 2000, 2001, 2002):
year 2000: 12-24-2000 through 12-30-2000 inclusive
year 2001: 12-30-2000 through 12-31-2001 inclusive
year 2002: 12-29-2002 through 12-31-2002 inclusive
DATEPART(wk, date) returns week 54 for the following dates:
year 2000: 12-31-2000
SQL2000 SP1.
Are there any known workarounds/fixes/patches for this (other than just hand-coding the function?)
Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to calculate the duration of time in minutes:
DATEPART (DAY, (time_out-time_in))
where
time_out = 2007-02-12 08:00:00.000 and
time_in = 2007-02-26 13:45:00.000
it returns '15' as the results which is actually a round up from 14 days 5 hrs and 45 mins = 14.23958 days
My question is: Is there a better way to calculate the duration (in minutes) in order to get my expected results, i.e. 14 days, 5 hours, and 45 minutes instead of just the rounded up number?
Thanks.

A question for everyone:
With the introduction of SQL 2005, we now have to use ANSI-92 T-SQL Syntax and I was wondering if anyone had written a tool to convert queries from old ANSI SQL to the new syntax.
We have some code that has to change for the outer joins, but we also have a lot of code that should change for the inner joins. It doesn't seem that difficult to write something that parses an old piece of code and at least suggests a new version. Especially if the conversion code wasn't SQL code.
Thanks, in advance,
Brian

I am getting wrong output when assigning a datepart function to a variable. I should get 2006 but instead I get an output 1905.
Below is the code and output. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
DECLARE @FiscalStartCurrYear datetime
SET @FiscalStartCurrentYear = DATEPART(year, GETDATE())
select @FiscalStartCurrYear
Output

I've been using this syntax for years on SQL Server and now comes the time to convert to SQL 2005 (90 compatibility). This syntax returns four rows. Basically it returns one row for each servername/component/context/property/value even when there does not exist a property of 'fff' since it's a left join:
Code Block
select t1.* from tblconfiguration t1
,tblconfiguration t2
where t1.component = 'AdjProcessUtility'
and t1.servername *= t2.servername
and t1.component *= t2.component
and t1.context *= t2.context
and t1.property = 'proc'
and t2.property = 'fff'
Result:
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility DuplicatesReport Proc Adjustment.dbo.prcDuplicatesReport
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile Proc Adjustment.dbo.prcAdjExtractMFFiles
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationProcess Proc prcAdjValidations
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport Proc Adjustment.dbo.prcValidationReport
When the converted (using SQL enterprise Mgr) runs it returns no rows:
Code Block
SELECT t1.*
FROM dbo.tblConfiguration t1 LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.tblConfiguration t2 ON t1.ServerName = t2.ServerName AND t1.Component = t2.Component AND t1.Context = t2.Context
WHERE (t1.Component = 'AdjProcessUtility') AND (t1.Property = 'proc') AND (t2.Property = 'fff')
I don't really see how to change this query to make it work. I've searched the web and I really don't see any examples of left joins which use more than one column.
Here's the table definition:
Code Block
CREATE TABLE dbo.tblConfiguration
(
ServerName VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
Component VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
Context VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
Property VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_tblConfiguration PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED( ServerName, Component, Context, Property ),
Value VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL
)
I use this table to define reports and there attribues. The rows repeat themselves except for the Property and Value columns
Here is some of the data:
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile Proc Adjustment.dbo.prcAdjExtractMFFiles
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile RunTime 13:25
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile Schedule 2,3,4,5,6
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile FixedRecLength 71
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile WriteFileHeader Y
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ExtractAdjFile WriteTempTable Y
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationProcess Proc prcAdjValidations
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport ReportClass ReportCSV
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport Ids Validation
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport RunTime 15:06
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport Schedule 2,3,4,5,6
SQLEDEV1 AdjProcessUtility ValidationReport DefaultFileName Adj_ValidationReport_MMDDYYHHMM.csv
etc.
Any help is greatly appreciated,

1) What is the restriction on the max no. of tables that can be used in any one query in v7.0? In 6.5 it was a max of 16 :(
2) Are non-ANSI-style joins permitted in v7? Just that we're thinking of upgrading but 50% of our stored procs/views have the old *= syntax
Thanks,

ok people, this is getting seriously frustrating! Please help!
As mentioned in a previous post, one of my batch jobs is printing fields with padding added, even when
the table column is defined as varchar.
I've been to the knowledge base, read the article on ansi padding, ran the test scripts.
But when I ran the select to display the columns,
THE OUTPUT FOR BOTH TABLES WAS IDENTICAL!!!
Apparently the SET ANSI_PADDING ON/OFF option had no effect!
What am i doing wrong? What is missing? Do i have to run the Set Ansi Padding option in the Master DB
context? Have I unknowingly overridden the option somewhere else? Must I brush up on my COBOL
for a career change?
HELP!

My question here is whether or not MS SQL is processing joins according to the ANSI SQL standard. The situation is this, a friend of mine has the following query (The definition for the tables and the data in them are at the end of the message):
SELECT t.*, v.*
FROM Table3 T LEFT OUTER JOIN
TableView V ON T.tx = V.tx
WHERE V.tx IS NULL and V.part IN (1,2)
My friend is implying that the OUTER join takes precedence over the WHERE clause and should return ALL rows from table3 that don't exist in the view. The view, as you will see below, is a partitioned view. My contention is that the proper join processing is to join the tables first and then apply the WHERE clause to that result set (regardless of the join type). In my friend's case, he expects this query to return four rows. My expectation is that it will return zero rows, because in the result set after the join is performed there are no rows that have a NULL in the v.tx column AND 1 or 2 in the v.part column. The actual ouput agrees with my premise and my friend is sure that this is not proper ANSI SQL join processing. Is this proper ANSI join processing or is MS SQL deviating from the standard?

I have a 6.5 and 2000 db that allows over flow of data to be entered into the
fields, but I have another 2000 db that does not allow over flow of data to
be entered. How can I check the ansi_defaults in the db's? I went through
the book ol but it didn't explain how to see those values. Only how to set
it using the SET option. Which was SET ANSI_DEFAULTS off go. Does it set it for the whole db or just my session? I need to
change it for all logins to be consistant. Thanks

Help....I have a DB I'm working with that I know doesn't work with theANSI-92 JOIN SYNTAX....I'm not sure how much this limits my ability todeal with the following situation, so I'm soliciting the help of aguru....I apologize for the lack of scripted table structure, but thisdatabase is embedded in an application that I have no true schema for.I have a crude diagram of the tables and some of the relationships, butI've managed to have manually mapped some of the fields in the tablesI'm working with.What I have is a table(A) that I need to join with 10 othertables.....I'm joining on an identifier in the (A) that may exist manytimes in any of the other 10 tables...and may not be in ANY of thetables.When I run this query:SELECTSAMPLES.PK_SampleUID,UDFSAMPLEDATA02.AlphaData,UDF SAMPLEDATA01.AlphaData,UDFSAMPLEDATA03.AlphaData,UDFSAMPLEDATA05.AlphaData, UDFSAMPLEDATA06.AlphaData,UDFSAMPLEDATA07.AlphaData, UDFSAMPLEDATA08.AlphaData,UDFSAMPLEDATA09.AlphaData,UDFSAMPLEDATA10.AlphaDat aFROM SAMPLES, UDFSAMPLEDATA01,UDFSAMPLEDATA02,UDFSAMPLEDATA03,UDFSAMPLEDATA05,U DFSAMPLEDATA06,UDFSAMPLEDATA07 ,UDFSAMPLEDATA08, UDFSAMPLEDATA09, UDFSAMPLEDATA10WHERE UDFSAMPLEDATA02.AlphaData<>' ' ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA01.FK_SampleUID=SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA02.FK_SampleUID=SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA03.FK_SampleUID= SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA05.FK_SampleUID = SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA06.FK_SampleUID = SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA07.FK_SampleUID = SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA08.FK_SampleUID = SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA09.FK_SampleUID=SAMPLES.PK_SampleUID ANDUDFSAMPLEDATA10.FK_SampleUID = SAMPLES.PK_SampleUIDI return what appears to be the gazillion COMBINATIONS of all thefields in all the tables....they query doesn't even finish before theODBC driver I'm working with crashes my VBscript....Is there some way to take the multiple returned rows from a join andwork them all into ONE row per identifier?Any help I can garner would just make my week!TIA!J

I've mentioned this before, but now it's got me stuck. I have atable-valued function that was created using QA in SQL 2000. I can'tedit it using 2005 Mgt Studio, because the property AnsiNullsStatusisn't set (apparently SQL 2000 forgot to set it when creating thefunction). Now I find I really want to edit it in SQL 2005 MS withoutgoing to SQL 2000 QA on my laptop. So, using SQL 2005 MS, I droppedand re-created the function, having obtained the code from SQL 2000 QA.That should fix this, right? When SQL 2005 re-creates the function, itwill specify whatever it needs. But no, I still can't edit it! Theproperty is still not set!Can anyone help? Please?Thanks,Jim Geissman

I need to write a stored procedure where I need to joing 3 tables A, B and C having approximately 200K, 500K, 800K rows respectively.
Query:
1) If I use ansi-syntax (inner join) as against non-ansi syntax (A.col1 = B.col1), I get a better performance.
Any idea why?
2) If I write a query (shown below), it tries to join table A and B returning large number of rows.
Select A.Col1, A.Col2
from A, B
where A.Col3 = 'xyz'
Why does it try to join the table B with A though there is no join specified.

Having problems rewriting my join condition using the "inner join" syntax.
My query, working with an intersection table:
SELECT Description, EmailAddress
FROM Accounts_Roles r, Accounts_Users u, Accounts_UserRoles ur
WHERE
r.RoleID = ur.RoleID
AND
u.UserID = ur.UserID
This works fine, but i want to write it using 'inner join' style, so I tried:
SELECT Description, EmailAddress
FROM Accounts_Roles r, Accounts_Users u
INNER JOIN Accounts_UserRoles ur
ON
r.RoleID = ur.RoleID
AND
u.UserID = ur.UserID
which gives me an error (The column prefix 'r' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query.)
Any ideas as to how I'm screwing this up would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi
When I was using Enterprise Manager (SQL 2000) and stored my query result (to file), it was stored in Ansi Encoding.
After I upgrade to SQL Server Management Studio (2005), it seams that when I store the query result to file it's Unicode Encoded. This give me a lot of trouble, when I use other program who I must read this file. For small result set, I can open it in Notepad, save it as ANSI, and then use it in my other program. When the result set is so big that Notepad not can help me, I can't use the stored result set.
There must be a way to store my Query result in Ansi encoding, but I don't know how I can do it. Hope some one know, and can help me solve this big problem.

Hi,
This might sound obvious, or a newbie question, but how are trailing blanks treated by SQL2005 on varchar columns?
I have a column where two rows only differ by a trailing blank. If write a select and a where clause on the column, anly trailing blanks seem to be trimmed. I tried the ansi padding setting but it doesn't change anything. Is it a question of collation? I have default collation on the server set to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS...
The problem also seems to arise when I try to create a unique index on the column, where both values are considered equivalent...
I give here a sample based on the BOL for set ansi_padding. I was expecting each of the select statements below to retrun only one row...
Cany somebody please explain why they all return two rows?
PRINT 'Testing with ANSI_PADDING ON'
SET ANSI_PADDING ON;
GO
CREATE TABLE t1 (
charcol CHAR(16) NULL,
varcharcol VARCHAR(16) NULL,
varbinarycol VARBINARY(8)
);
GO
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ('No blanks', 'No blanks', 0x00ee);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ('Trailing blank ', 'Trailing blank ', 0x00ee00);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ('Trailing blank ', 'Trailing blank', 0x00ee00);
SELECT 'CHAR' = '>' + charcol + '<', 'VARCHAR'='>' + varcharcol + '<',
varbinarycol

I have a question relating to the ANSI_PADDING setting on some existing tables in a SQL Server 2008 R2 database I am working with. When I generated the tables originally I basically programmatically created them by building CREATE scripts within my code. Since I did not explicitly set ANSI_PADDING to ON all these tables they seem to have been created with ANSI_PADDING as OFF. Some of these tables, which I now need to add columns to, contain varchar(n) and varbinary(n) columns.
When I try to alter the tables through Management Studio, SQL Server gives me a warning: "One or more tables have ANSI_PADDING 'off' and will be recreated with ANSI_PADDING 'on'" - this seems to be generated by the ALTER statement which by default sets ANSI_PADDING to ON. Another iteration of the same warning - "Columns have different ANSI_PADDING settings. New columns will be created with ANSI_PADDING 'on'".
From what I read regarding ANSI_PADDING it seems ON is definitely the way to go. I just need to know if changing the value may result in any of the existing data in the table to be changed or may have any other unintended side effect, as this may cause problems for me.
