I have a XML column in my source DB. Is there any way possible using SSIS to convert the XML to ordinaty cols (varchar) in the destination db.
I am using Sql 2k5.
thanks in advance
my table
id; part_name ; part_desc
01; xpto ; descr
02; qwerty ; azerty
03; azerty ; descr xpto
I want to search from two columns
something similar to :
SELECT * FROM tools WHERE (part_name LIKE @parameter_search or part_desc LIKE @parameter_search);
If i search for "xpto" only the first line would show.
How can i solve/go around this?
I'd like to know if I can make one proc/cursor that I can pass only a table name and it will determine what cols exist in the table?
AND, what is the syntax for such a query?
I will be receiving data back where I will receive the accountID and only the deltas will have values all other columns will be null.
My proc will update an existing record, updating the specific col when an accountID exists, it will create a new record if the accountID does not exist.
I'd like to search all the cols getting their names and values when not null.
I can construct a proc for each table searching each col by known name.
However, I'd like to know if I can make one proc/cursor that I can pass only a table name and it will determine the cols?
All my tables start with cols AccountID and end with RecID with any number of cols inbetween.
TIA

I have data in rows that I need to aggregate and display in a columnar fashion and I haven't been able to figure out how to do it. A simplified version of the data as it is stored in the table:
Station Month Day Reading
1 1 1 100
1 1 2 200
1 1 3 300
1 2 1 400
1 2 2 500
And I would like to create a query that returns:
Station Month Day 1 Day 2 Day 3
1 1 100 200 300
1 2 400 500
Any help you can provide or tips to steer me in the right direction are much appreciated.

Hello,
I have a table with 1 column containing numeric values, and I need to create a query which displays the count of values for each set of conditions. For example, if the table contains the values 1,2,3,4,5 and 6, the output of the query should look like this:
L M H
-----------------------
3 2 1
(L are values below 4, M between 4 and 5, H is 6 and above)
Any suggestions?
TIA
For ex.
Table Match_List ( MatchID, UserID_A, UserID_B)
constraints like
MatchID primary key
UserID_A <> UserID_B
unqiue index (UserID_A,UserID_B)
but I wish to exclude duplicated rows like 1,1,2 & 2,2,1,
cause UserA to UserB, and UserB to UserA are the same thing.
How can I get this?
Hi I have a table which has couple of name cols and 10 varchar columns. The requirement was to retain the first two cols but convert the 10 cols into a single XMl.
the table has this schema;
ManagerName varchar
UserName varchar
TextField1 Varchar
TextField2 Varchar
TextField3 Varchar
TextField4 Varchar
TextField5 Varchar
TextField6 Varchar
TextField7 Varchar
TextField8 Varchar
TextField9 Varchar
TextField10 Varchar
I wrote a query like;
SELECT
TPD.[NameId]
,CrtdUser.[UserId]
from [Olddb_DB] TPD
join
[NewDB]..[Manager]CrtdUser
on
Crtduser.managerName = TPD.ManagerName
join
[NewDB]..[Users]Users
on
Users.[loginDetail] = TPD.[UserName]
to get the cols other than the XML
/*********/
SELECT
XmlDat.[textField1],
XmlDat.[textField2],
XmlDat.[textField3],
XmlDat.[textField4],
XmlDat.[textField5],
XmlDat.[textField6],
XmlDat.[textField7],
XmlDat.[textField8],
XmlDat.[textField9],
XmlDat.[textField10],
XmlDat.[textField11],
XmlDat.[textField12]
from
[olddb_db]..[DETAIL_DEF] XmlDat,[NEWDB]..[Detail_Def]TPD
where TPD.Name = XmlDat.Name
for XML AUTO, ELEMENTS
and this query to convert all the varchar cols to a XML. Now the problem is I am not sure of how to combine both these queries to Insert into the new table.
Can someone guide me in this
the destination table looks like
Name (Varchar)
UserId (int)
UserVal_XMl (XML)
Thanks in advance

Hello ,
I need to make the automatic subtotal column in most right position in a matrix wider than the data columns , i faild so far and discovered that its width is proportional to the data column width , its logic for the total column to be wider since its value is sum(all left data columns)
any way around this ?
thanks

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi, I have the following script segment which is failing:
CREATE TABLE #LatLong (Latitude DECIMAL, Longitude DECIMAL, PRIMARY KEY (Latitude, Longitude))
INSERT INTO #LatLong SELECT DISTINCT Latitude, Longitude FROM RGCcache
When I run it I get the following error: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#LatLong__________7CE3D9D4'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#LatLong'."
Im not sure how this is failing as when I try creating another table with 2 decimal columns and repeated values, select distinct only returns distinct pairs of values.
The failure may be related to the fact that RGCcache has about 10 million rows, but I can't see why.
Any ideas?
I need to run a SELECT DISTINCT query acrossmultiple fields, but I need to add another field that is NON-DISTINCTto my record set.Here is my query:SELECT DISTINCT lastname, firstname, middleinitial, address1,address2, city, state, zip, age, genderFROM gpresultsWHERE age>='18' and serviceline not in ('4TH','4E','4W')and financialclass not in ('Z','X') and age not in('1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','0')and (CAST (ADMITDATE AS DATETIME) >= DATEDIFF(day, 60, GETDATE()))ORDER BY zipThis query runs perfect. No problems whatsoever. However, I need toalso include another field called "admitdate" that should be treatedas NON-DISTINCT. How do I add this in to the query?I've tried this but doesn't work:SELECT admitdateFROM (SELECT DISTINCT lastname, firstname, middleinitial, address1,address2, city, state, zip, age, gender from gpresults)WHERE age>='18' and serviceline not in ('4TH','4E','4W')and financialclass not in ('Z','X') and age not in('1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','0')and (CAST (ADMITDATE AS DATETIME) >= DATEDIFF(day, 60, GETDATE()))ORDER BY zipThis has to be simple but I do not know the syntax to accomplishthis.Thanks
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I have written a small asp.net application, which keeps record of the proposals coming from the branch offices of a bank in a tableCREATEd as a TABLE Proposals ( ID smallint identity(7,1), BranchID char(5), Proposal_Date datetime )
This app also calculates the total number of proposals coming from a specific branch in a given date bySELECTing COUNT(BranchID) FROM Proposals WHERE BranchID=@prmBranchID AND Proposal_Date=@prmDateand prints them in a table (my target table).
This target table has as many rows as the result of the "SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) FROM Proposals"and excluding the first column which displays those DISTINCT Proposal_Dates, it also has as many columns as the result of the"SELECT DISTINCT BranchID FROM Proposals". This target table converts the DateTime values ToShortDateString so that we are able to see comfortably which branch office has sent how many proposals in a given day.
So far so good, and everything works fine except one thing:
Certain DateTime values in the Proposals table which are of the same day but of different hours (for ex: 11.11.2005 08:30:45 and11.11.2005 10:45:30) cause some trouble in the target table, where "SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) FROM Proposals" is executed, because (as you might already guess) it displays two identical dates in ShortDateString form, and this doesn't make much sense (i.e. it causes redundant rows)
What I need to do is to get a result like (in a neat fashion :)
"SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) <<DISTINCT ONLY IN THE DAYS AND NOT IN HOURS OR MINUTES OR SECONDS>> FROM Proposals"
So, how to do it in a suitable way?
Thanks in advance.

Okay, I've been working on this for a couple of hours with no success. I'm trying to find the number of telephone numbers that are associated with multiple students at different school sites. I've created a temp table that lists all phone numbers that are associated with more than one student. I'm now trying to query that table and count the number of telephone numbers that are associated with more than one site. Essentially, I'm looking for parent/guardians that have students at different sites.
Here's an example of what I'm hoping to accomplish:
*In this example, I'm just trying to get a count of the different/distinct school sites associated with each number. If I can, at the same time, limit it to a count of > 1 (essentially excluding parents with students at the same site), even better :)

If I know this SELECT will get me unique username to configname records:Select DISTINCT configname, username FROM EtechModelRequests
JOIN CC_host.dbo.usr_smc ON
username = user_id
JOIN Webservices.dbo.PartNumberPricingImport ON
PartNumber = configname
Where RequestDateTime > '9/26/2007' And country = 'US' And interfacename Like '%download%' And result = 0
How do I show the other fields I need? The field I need is List Price but I don't want to DISTINCT on it too.
Hi I have two tables linked by MemberID and I'll like to produce a list from the two tables but also want to specify one table to only use the Top 50 distinct records
Table 1 (top 50 Distinct)
Memberid (distinct)PictureDateTakenGalleryID
Order By DateTaken
Table 2
MemberidFirstNameLastNamePrivatelist
MemberidPictureFirstNameLastNameGalleryIDPrivate
I have a query and it is bringing up multiples of the same data
what i would like to know is if there is a way to use something like Distinct that i can use as a clause
such as
Select *
from Table
Where Distinct ColumnName
I know that distinct doesnt work in this situation
I would like to know if there is a command to do this or a way to fix it
if i use this
select distinct columnName,columnName2
from table
it returns the rows where columnName and ColumnName2 both are not the same
My purpose is that i need to select more than one column but i would like non duplicates based on ONE column name
thanks for any help
I have 6 fields in my table and I want to display only distinct values from one of those columns. However, I also need to use the fields from the remaining 5 columns in my asp page. For example,
Columns:
CompID
CompanyName
Ticker
Industry
CEOName
MarketCap
In one table on the page, I want to display only unique entries for 'CompanyName' which I've been doing with this statement:
SqlText = "SELECT DISTINCT CompanyName FROM [tablename] WHERE UserID=" & intUserID & ""
However, I also need to use the other values associated 'CompanyName' in my asp page after opening my recordset. I need to display <%=Rs("CompID"%>, <%=Rs("Ticker"%>, <%=Rs("Industry"%> etc. while maintaining the DISTINCT portion of my statement.
Thanks again.
I have 3 records in a db..
Table
id
file_name
category
Records
1
bob.jpg
male
2
rob.jpg
male
3
pam.jpg
female
I am trying to grab the distinct category so only 'male and female' is output, but i am also needing to grab the id, file_name to use later on the page as well.
When i try
select distinct category, id, file_name
from tbl_pictures
it outputs all the records since there is no exact match in all 3 fields,
but i am wanting this to happen
select distinct category
from tbl_pictures
but i am still needing to grab the other two fields because i need to use them in the next part of the page
how can i go about doing this
What is the difference between distinct and group by please?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have data in several tables and Im having trouble filtering the data.
This is statement that Im executing:
1. SELECT DISTINCT Countries.Name, Companies.ShortName, Persons.FirstName, Persons.LastName, PersonSkills.Skills
This is the statement that gives me the results I want:
2. SELECT DISTINCT Countries.Name, Companies.ShortName, Persons.FirstName, Persons.LastName
The problem with this is I need to have Persons.Skills in the statement and DISTINCT doesnt filter the data the way I need it to because the data in Persons.Skills is different which results in I get duplicated results.
Is it possible to do something like
SELECT DISTINCT column1,..,column5,(SELECT Persons.Skills)
by this I mean to apply distinct to some of the columns in the SELECT statement?
I require only the distinct objects that were depend on my stored procedures

Is there some way to use the distinct keyword so that it applies ONLY to a subset of the items in the select list???
For example, suppose I want to
select col_1, col_2, col_3, col_4
but I do not want distinct applied against all 4 items...
Maybe I want all 4 items in the selection list,
but I want distinct to use only col_3 as its filtration criteria...
I know the syntax shown below is not valid, but I am showing it anyway because I am hoping it will illustrate what I am looking for...
Is there a VALID syntax that is something like this???
select col_1, col_2, (distinct col_3), col_4
or
select col_1, col_2, distinct (col_3), col_4
I am trying to pull information out of a table using distinct, but instead of just pulling a certain column I want to pull multiple columns in a row?
However when I use the command below I only get the "workitem_number" column available, where there are approx. 4 other columns that I need (workitem_title, workitem_comment, ETC) When I add the additional columns (after the distinct statement) it doesn't work due to the type of data.
"SELECT DISTINCT workitem_number from workitem_cost_view where assigned_to_worker_nt_id = '" & Request.QueryString("Name") & "' AND workitem_start_on = '" & Request.QueryString("schDate") & "' order by workitem_number"
Is there any way to pull multiple columns, based only on distinct for one column?
I hope I'm explaining this correctly.
Thanks.
