And I want to delete all those items from another table.. What is the
best way to do that? If I use two IN clauses it will do it where it
matches anything in both, not the exact combination of the two. I can't
do joins in a delete clause like an update, so how is this typically
handled?
The only way I can see so far to get around it is to concatenate the
columns like CAST(ProjectId as varchar) + '-' + Description and do an
IN clause on that which is pretty nasty.
Ok, I want to write a stored procedure / query that says the following: Code: If any of the items in list 'A' also appear in list 'B' --return false If none of the items in list 'A' appear in list 'B' --return true
In pseudo-SQL, I want to write a clause like this
Code:
IF (SELECT values FROM tableA) IN(SELECT values FROM tableB) Return False ELSE Return True
Unfortunately, it seems I can't do that unless my subquery before the 'IN' statement returns only one value. Needless to say, it returns a number of values.
I may have to achieve this with some kind of logical loop but I don't know how to do that.
I have a select list of fields that I need to select to get the results I need, however, I would like to insert only a chosen few of these fields into a table. I am getting the error, "The select list for the INSERT statement contains more items than the insert list. The number of SELECT values must match the number of INSERT columns." How can I do this?

I have a a table that holds a list of words, I am trying to add to the list, however I only want to add new words. But I wish to return from my proc the list of words with ID, whether it is new or old.
Here's a script. the creates the table,indexes, function and the storeproc. call the proc like procStoreAndUpdateTokenList 'word1,word2,word3'
My table is now 500000 rows and growing and I am inserting on average 300 words, some new some old.
performance is a not that great so I'm thinking that my code can be improved.

I am trying to find a way to add into a table a flattened (comma seperated list) of email addresses based on the multiple columns of nformation in another table (joined by customer_full_name and postcode.
This is to highlight duplicate email addresses for people under the same customer_full_name and Postcode.
I have done this using a loop which loops through concatenating the email addresses but it takes 1minute to do 1000. The table is 19,000 so this isn't really acceptable. I have tried temp tables, table variables and none of this seems to make any difference. I think that it is becuase i am joining on text columns?
How to find out that a table has changed. For example if a table has 50K rows, and if any update, insert, or delete was made it should be captured without using any trigger. Is it possible to get such information from any of the system table or DMVs?
I need to create a stored procedure that takes a list of product numbers(541, 456, CE6050,...) and selects only the customers that have all product numbers in the list. I have a product table that has the following schema:
So a customer can have more than one product, but I need a select statement that takes the product numbers and selects them against the product table and returns only the customerNumbers that have the entire list of product numbers. I have tried doing a join on the product list and productNumber, then join with the customer table on customerNumber, but that gets any entires found in the list not the entries that have all the product numbers. Thanks in advance for any help.
I have an issue where I am storing various international characters in nvarchar columns, but need to branch the data at one point of processing so that ASCII characters are run through an additional cleansing process and all non-ASCII characters are set aside.
Is there a way to identify which nvarchar values are within the ASCII range and can be converted to varchar without corruption? Also, the strings may contain a mix of english and international character sets, so the entire string must be checked and not just the first character.
Select * from myTable where myTable_ID in (2,6,7,9)
I want to build the list of values that are in parenthesis, in my VB code and pass it in through a parameter, so it's like this:
Select * from myTable where myTable_ID in (@myValues)
Is this possible? I tried it where myValues = '2,6,7,9' but am getting a conversion error. I'm starting to believe it's not possible to do what I'm trying to do. Is there another way?
Hi, I am a newbie, this is my first post (please go easy).
Iam at the moment trying to set up a query for someone looking for a property on an estate agents website.
From a drop down menu, the user can: select an area (where they may like to live) from a list of areas. select an amount of bedrooms from a list of bedrooms select a minimum price from a list of prices select a maximum price from a list of prices.
The query I worked out for this is as follows: $data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM property WHERE area like '$area' and bedrooms like '$bedrooms' AND price BETWEEN '$min_price' AND '$max_price'") or die(mysql_error());
This seems to work fine and shows all the properties that meet the criteria onto my webpage.
However, I then thought, someone may not care which area they live in and want to see all properties in all the areas, so I decided to add the option 'All areas' to my 'areas' list, I then did the same for the other lists, eg 'all bedrooms' option to my bedrooms list and so on.
I am now trying to write a query that incorporates where the 'all..' option is selected and have become very stuck! Can someone set me off in the right direction for this. I hope that makes sense?!?!
I am trying to insert into a database Checkbox list items, I get good values up till the checkBox List and then it gives me all O's, My fields in my database are bit columns so I need the checkbox list itmes to be converted to this format. This is what i have so far. One thing is I don;t think I am inserting into the correct database columns. bitLOD, bitInjury, bitIllness, bitreferral are the database fileds.Private Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click 'Check for the page ID to make sure not an update page then either insert new data or update existing data.

In a multi-user environment, I would like to get a list of Idsgenerated, similar to:declare @LastId intselect @LastId = Max(Id) From TableManiaINSERT INTO TableMania (ColumnA, ColumnB)SELECT ColumnA, ColumnB From OtherTable Where ColumnC > 15--get entries just addedSELECT * FROM TableMania WHERE Id > @LastIdThe above works fine, except I'm assuming it will not work in amulti-user environment. Is there any way to get the set of Ids thatwere just added in the previous statement (similar to @@IDENTITY)without doing all of this in a serializable transaction or making atemp table of every single Id before the insert statement?
App developers are complaining that a blocking report I sent them today does not have enough info to troubleshoot and fix the root cause of the blocking.(I used SQL Sentry to get the report and send to the users, but I think my question is more fundamental than just using one 3rd-party tool.)The reason for the complaints is that the top blocker is a SELECT stmt on TableA that is not the Wait Resource of the blocking (TableB).
I explained that this is likely because the "blocking" SELECT stmt on TableA is part of a larger explicit tran that includes TableB, and that they need to look through their code to identify the SQL stmt that is the root cause of the blocking.They would like that root statement identified in the blocking report, but I don't think it is possible to get to that through DMVs.
I am generally a C programmer and have little experience with DB programming, so I apologize right from the start.
I have a table that allows a registration item with a verification item that will be NULL when the item is created. What I wish to do is delete these if the verification item is still NULL after a specified time (say 24 to 48 hours).
I would prefer to do this with some sort of trigger in one of two ways and any suggestions are much appreciated. 1. Have a stored procedure or function (not sure which is best to utilize) that runs every 2 days which checks the table for the NULL values and deletes any older than 48 hours. 2. Create a stored procedure or function when the registration is made that will check if the verification is still NULL for that particular record 24 hours later. I would think the first would be the simplest, but am not certain.
Again, forgive my inexperience with DB programming and again I appreciate any advice given.
I have a report based on our product names that consists of two parts.Both insert data into a temporary table.1. A single grouped set of results based on all products2. Multiple tables based on individual product names.I am getting data by calling the same stored procedure multipletimes... for the single set of data I use "product like '%'"To get the data for individual products, I am using a cursor to parsethe product list.It's working great except that I have no idea how to identify theresults short of including a column with the product name. While thatis fine, I'm wondering if there is something that is like a header ortitle that I could insert prior to generating the data that would looka little tighter.Thanks in advance-DanielleJoin Bytes!
What are the options to create a table of contents based on the report items in a List Control? Document Mapping works for online viewing. A table of content would make the report easier to read when it's printed.
I want to get the list of items present in that order based on the confidentiality code of that product or Item and confidentiality code of the user.
I display the list of orders in first grid, by selecting the order in first grid I display the Items present in that order based on the confidentiality code of that item.
whenever order in 1st grid is selected i want to display the items that the item code should be less than or equal to the confidentiality code of the logged-in user other items should not display.
If the all the items present in the order having confidentiality code greater than Logged-in user at that time the order no# should not display in the first grid.
I know I can do a JOIN(parameter, "some seperator") and it will build me a list/string of all the values in the multiselect parameter.
However, I want to do the same thing with all the occurances of a field in my result set (each row being an occurance).
For example say I have a form that is being printed which will pull in all the medications a patient is currently listed as having perscriptions for. I want to return all those values (say 8) and display them on a single line (or wrap onto additional lines as needed).
Something like: List of current perscriptions: Allegra, Allegra-D, Clariton, Nasalcort, Sudafed, Zantac
How can I accomplish this?
I was playing with the list box, but that only lets me repeat on a new line, I couldn't find any way to get it to repeate side by side (repeat left to right instead of top to bottom). I played with the orientation options, but that really just lets me adjust how multiple columns are displayed as best I can tell.
Could a custom function of some sort be written to take all the values and spit them out one by one into a comma seperated string?
I can have a user that has multiple emails but I need to return them all in one row in addition to the name, office and phone. And I need to do this regardless of the number of emails they have. Please, can anyone help the newbie?
I have a multiselect checkbox list in my UI. I pass the list items to my stored proc as comma separated parameter and then I have a function which converts this parameter to a table with separate rows.
E.g. : a,b,c,d
Converted to result table
result a b c d
I want to insert each row of the result table into another table. How to do that.
E.g., the table after the function is :
CREATE TABLE #result ( Subject varchar(100) )
insert into #result values ('a') insert into #result values ('b') insert into #result values ('c') insert into #result values ('d')
I have a sample view with some dates. How would you find the numbers of items open per month. Say between OpenDate and CloseDate I want to find how many were open for January, February,?
What I need to do in seperate a group of numbers into two different categories based on a phase code. I have acheived this through two conditional statements, but when I try to total the numbers that were returned for each group I receive an #error.
This is an example of the switch statement I used in order to return the correct values for the Implemenataion.
I've tried substituting a 0 in for the "" at the end of each statement. I've also tried to take the first statement and put it into its own table field named ImplementationLedger, and them summing it. ie. =SUM(Fields!ImplementationLedger.Value)
Now I would like to sort these by using the Interactive sort functions - but I have seen elsewhere that this is not possible..(I'm also getting an error when trying..)Is there not a way that I can bypass this (using Code function or similar) ? The datasource for the data is a OLAP cube
HiI am working on a site right now. Basicly how it works is they choose from a list of checkboxes what they want to be quized on. This all gets stored in an arrayList. Once they done that they have an option to save there settings so they don't have to go through the list and choose everything again if they want to come back and do that same quiz. So I am trying to take all those options in the arrayList and put them into the database. So I have 4 questions. Question 1.This is how I was thinking my database design should be.This table that all this stuff is going to be inserted into is called QuickLinks. Originally I was thinking of having a PK to FK relationship with the Asp membership table called Membership(or User Table was another posibility). I am now thinking that is a waste of time and pointless. My first reasoning was well this way I can get the UserID from that table but now I realize no I actually need the UserID to be in the QuickLink table before I try to join the two tables together. With joining the 2 tables I don't get anything out of it since if I just do a check if the User is logged in before I insert the data into the database I can just slip the userID in there as well. Then the QuickLink table should have everything it needs. So My question is I am thinking of having the quick Link talbe to operate like this. Say you have 50 items in the array(this is all from the same item). Each item will gets its own row that will have the UserID,CharacterName,CharacterImagePath, QuickLinkName plus the LinkID.So when I need to call that information I just have to look at 2 pieces of information. Find all the rows that have the same QuickLink name and UserID. So is this a good way to store the data? Question 2.Currently right now I have UserID as unquieIdentifer but I am guessing if I have 50 rows with the same UserID it won't like that very much since its not Unquie. Should I just change that to a varChar?LinkID UserID CharacterName CharacterImagePath----------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- --------------------------------------------------1 15bde69a-c6fe-4159-b60f-405a013ae4c3 hi image2 15bde69a-c6fe-4159-b60f-405a013ae4e2 hi image3 15bde69a-c6fe-4159-b60f-405a013ae4c3 hi imageFind it actually kinda weird that it allowed 2 of the same UserIDs in. Question 3.Right now my primary key is LinkID. I just made that up but right now I have no use for it since I can't think of anything that would be useful to be a primary key but I figured I need a primary key. So does anyone have any ideas if I should leave that as the primary key or not have one? Or what I should do?Question 4I been playing around on a new webpage I made so I don't have so much cludder code to get in the way I don't screw anything up(I just find it sometimes easier to make a watered down version of what I want and get that work before I tackle the big version and have no clue what is going on. I am not sure if this is the best approach). So right now I have text box that I type in the UserID into(I have gotten the part to work where it checks the login of the user and grabs it but I don't want use it for now since it might complicate things a bit).I have then a textbox where you type in the image path and then 2 other textboxes that you type in the characterName. Those 2 textBoxes for the characterName gets stored in array(so it is almost like the real thing I want to do). I then tired to put my code in a for loop and tired to keep inserting it in until everything from the array was out. However it does not work. I get this errorThe variable name '@UserID' has already been declared. Variable names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure. I am not sure what it means or wants. My code. ArrayList InsertCharcter = new ArrayList(); InsertCharcter.Add(TextBox1.Text); InsertCharcter.Add(TextBox2.Text);
SqlCommand comm; string holdInsert = "INSERT INTO QuickLinks (UserID, CharacterName, CharacterImagePath) VALUES (@UserID,@CharacterName,@CharacterImagePath)"; comm = new SqlCommand(holdInsert, getConnection()); Guid userID = new Guid(txtuserID.Text);
comm.Connection.Open(); for (int i = 0; i < InsertCharcter.Count; i++) { comm.Parameters.Add("@UserID", SqlDbType.VarChar); comm.Parameters["@UserID"].Value = txtuserID.Text; comm.Parameters.Add("@CharacterName", SqlDbType.VarChar); comm.Parameters["@CharacterName"].Value = InsertCharcter[i].ToString(); comm.Parameters.Add("@CharacterImagePath", SqlDbType.VarChar); comm.Parameters["@CharacterImagePath"].Value = txtImage.Text;
