Intersect?
Feb 2, 2004Dose SQL 2000 support the intersect function? If so....could someone show me an example. If not...how do you work around the problem.
Thanks,

Intersect In Sql

Oct 18, 2006I want to be able to intersect many tables. I am building my query from vb code in asp .net based on key fields entered in a search engine box.my query should look like this, which will return the rows that will have the values var, var_2, var_3 in any columns. All three must be in a row for it to be a hit. I cant get this to work in ms sql. I don't know if it supports this feature.select * from t where column1 Like '%var%' or column2 like '%var%' or column3 like '%var%'intersect select * from t where column1 Like '%var_2%' or column2 like '%var_2%' or column3 like '%var_2%'intersectselect * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%' I also googled around and found a where exists... But cant seem to figure out how to do multiple tables:select * from t where exists (select * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%') i would like to add multiple conditions to the where exists table. Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Feb 27, 2008I have: 4 tables and 1 table variable.
CCenters (ID, Name)
Campaigns (ID, Name)
Rel (ID, CCenterID, CampaignID) - [many to many]
and @SCampaigns (ID, CampaignID) - represents the selected campaigns by the user
performing the commands below I would get the centers associated with the campaigns selected.SELECT CCenterID
FROM Rel
INNER JOIN @Campaigns ON @SCampaigns.CampaignID = Rel.CampaignID
But what I really want are the common centers to the selected campaigns.

WHERE Operators
Mar 18, 2005Hello,
I am trying to filter records according to an exact string case match and the operator = does not seem to do the job.
Executing,
SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE kUserId='admin' AND strPw='abcd'
and
SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE kUserId='admin' AND strPw='aBcD'
always fetches the same record.
So, how do I do about employing case-exact filtering?
Thank you very much.

Usage Of INTERSECT - Keep Getting Errors :(
Dec 21, 2003Hi everyone, I'm trying to run the following script but it keeps giving me errors (Syntax near the work INTERSECT).
SELECT [stuff], [things], [others], [everyone]
FROM [TABLE] JOIN (
(SELECT [stuff]
FROM [TABLE]
WHERE [item] = '1' )
INTERSECT
(SELECT [stuff]
FROM [TABLE]
WHERE [item2] = '1' )
) temp ON temp.[stuff] = [stuff]
NOTE: If I replace the word INTERSECT with UNION it works fine, just that I'm wanting an intersect not a union!!
Can anyone help me out with this?

Minus And Intersect Functionality
Jul 20, 2005Hi,I've used the minus functionality which is available in Oracle andi would like to use it in SQL server, but i don't know how to. Thefolllowing is how it works in OracleSelect symbols from symbol_tableminusselect tsymbols from tradeIt returns a list of all the symbols from symbol_table which are notpresent in trade.Similarly, the intersect will return only those which are common toboth.I was wondering if someone throw some light on this problem for me.Thanks in advance,Sumanth

SQL Server 2012 :: INTERSECT Over INNER JOIN
Jan 13, 2014These two T-SQL statements return the same results.
If Microsoft deemed it necessary to add the EXCEPT command, then what are its advantages over an INNER JOIN

USE AdventureWorks2008R2;
GO
SELECT ProductID
FROM Production.Product
INTERSECT
SELECT ProductID

Nov 14, 2007Hi people!!!
First I'll introduce my situation.
I have the folowing tables:
1.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1001
2.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1002
Both servers run SQL Server 2000 Edition.
What i need to perform is a check that compares the data stored in both tables in order to know if there is any difference between them. Of course, the structure of both tables are the same.
I use the SP sp_addlinkedserver to link the servers, but the problem is that EXCEPT and INTERSECT didn't work.
Anyone can help me?

Statement, Operators, Operation.
Mar 21, 2007Hi I just got a paging procedure from the internet and it’s working just fine, but I would like to return the numbers of pages too. So I used the Count() function to retrieve all records on the table and divided by the page size, but even I doing with float number, this is returning a integer number. I just started with SQL Server, does some knows what is wrong with the following code? or knows a better way to do it.
Declare @Records int,
@Pages float,
@hey int
Set @Records = (Select Count(*) as 'Friends' From friends
Set @Pages = ((@Records) / (@PageSize))
Set @hey = (@Pages)
if @Pages > @hey
begin
@Pages = @Pages + 1
end
return @Pages
Thank you very much.

Conditional Operators In SQL Statements
Oct 28, 200595% of our DB Calls are in STored Procedures, however there are a few that we're finding hard to convert.
Example:
string strSQL = "Some Big *** SQL query with 8 inner joins";
If(Some Variable == something)
strSQL += "AND ...':
if(Something == somethingElse)
strSQL += " AND (this > that OR this <= other + 1);
so on and so forth.
Is it possible to put these types of statements in a Stored Procedure so I can get this out of code?

Overloading Add/subtract Operators For CLR UDT
Oct 13, 2006Hi,
I have an implementation of the UDT - 3-dimentional vector. In my code I have implemented add, subtract and multiply methods for the type. I have also implemented overloaded operators for +/-/* in my C# code. Those overloaded operator are working as expected in C# tests. However when I€™m trying to use +/-/* operators in T-SQL over my UDT it returns the following error:
Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals add, type equals Vector.
The following fragment does work:
DECLARE @v1 Vector, @v2 Vector, @v3 Vector;
SELECT @v1 = CAST('1,1,1' as Vector), @v2 = CAST('2,2,2' as Vector)
SELECT @v1 'v1', @v2 'v2', @v1.[Add](@v2) 'v1 + v2'
And this fragment does not work:
DECLARE @v1 Vector, @v2 Vector, @v3 Vector;
SELECT @v1 = CAST('1,1,1' as Vector), @v2 = CAST('2,2,2' as Vector)
SELECT @v1 'v1', @v2 'v2', @v1+@v2 'v1 + v2'
I guess that SQL Server is not aware of the operators€™ overload I have implemented in the C# code. Is there any way to instruct SQL Server to use overloaded operators in the T-SQL so the code will look naturally @a + @b instead of @a.[Add](@b) and as a result use standard summary functions SUM() instead of writing user defined aggregate function for the Vector type field?

Alerting Operators For All Jobs
Jan 26, 2007Hi there,
I'm not sure which section this really comes under and I think 'availability/disaster recovery' is probably the most applicable, sorry if it isn't.
I have SQL Server 2005 set-up and about 50 jobs listed, now, these jobs were configured before an operators with alerting by email was set-up... so, none of the jobs when fail alert an operator.
Is there any way I can automate a solution so if any job fails a designated/or default operator will be emailed and told what happened? Or would I need to edit each job manually to set this?
Thanks

Using Comparison Operators In Query Expression
Sep 14, 2006I'm trying to put an expression into a view query column. I've already created a column which contains the results of a calculation in the form of an expression. What I don't know how to do is use comparison operators to return a boolean value for display. I'll give some examples of what I'm trying to do, using literal values just to simplify things...
So say I want to display the result of an expression in a view query column, as a boolean value (or BIT), as True or False. I've tried putting the following expressions into the column and none work:
4 < 5: Access converts this to the string '4 < 5' and it's just displayed as a string.
CAST( '4 < 5' AS BIT ): When run, the query displays the error 'Syntax error converting the varchar value '4 < 5' to a column of data type BIT.
Although I'm using Access 2003, It's just a front end for a SQL Server 2000 database. The actual SQL statement containing the latter SQL function is:
SELECT dbo.Tapes.No, dbo.Tapes.Status, dbo.Tapes.LastWrittenDate, dbo.Tapes.Pool, dbo.Tapes.Location, dbo.TapeJobs.No AS Expr1, dbo.TapeJobs.JobNo,
dbo.TapeJobs.TapeNo, dbo.Jobs.No AS Expr2, dbo.Jobs.Date, dbo.Jobs.Successful, dbo.Jobs.RetentionRule, dbo.RetentionRules.No AS Expr3,
dbo.RetentionRules.Name, dbo.RetentionRules.Description, dbo.RetentionRules.RetentionPeriod, dbo.RetentionRules.RetentionCycles,
dbo.Jobs.Date + dbo.RetentionRules.RetentionPeriod AS AgedJob, CAST('4 < 5' AS BIT) AS Expr4
FROM dbo.RetentionRules INNER JOIN
dbo.Jobs ON dbo.RetentionRules.No = dbo.Jobs.RetentionRule RIGHT OUTER JOIN
dbo.Tapes RIGHT OUTER JOIN
dbo.TapeJobs ON dbo.Tapes.No = dbo.TapeJobs.TapeNo ON dbo.Jobs.No = dbo.TapeJobs.JobNo
I'm new to SQL. I think the CAST function is the way forward, but I just don't know how to force it to resolve the expression '4 < 5'.
Can someone please help ?

I want know where can I find information about valid expresion types for each one of de Arithmetic Operators, Bitwise Operators, Comparison Operators, Logical Operators, Unary Operators in SQL server. I want something like this.
for (+) ADD, syntaxis -> expression + expression
expression Valid? result type

int + int ok int
int + bigint ok bigint
char + char ok char <- (+) works like concatenation
char + int ok char???
image + bit error -
binary + int ok binary???
for (*) MULTIPLY, syntaxis -> expression * expression
expression Valid? result type
-----------------------------------------------------------------
int * int ok int
int * bigint ok bigint
char * char error -
char * int error -
image + bit error -
binary + int ok binary????
for (<) LESS THAN, syntaxis -> expresion < expression
expression Valid? result type
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sp_trace_setfilter Mixing AND/OR Operators In Profiler
Jul 24, 2007 Hello, how do you setup a Profiler filter, that has mixed AND/OR operators. Thru the Profiler GUI, I don't even see how you would ask for any statement/proc with READS over 10,000 OR DURATION over 1000ms. How do you do an "OR" thru the GUI?
Forgetting the GUI and doing traces thru scripts, the @logical_operator isn't too logical, and I can't find any description for setting this parameter. If you only have one filter, it doesn't matter if you set it to 0 (AND) or to 1 (OR)... But if you want multiple filters, so one filter is Reads >= 10,000 and the other filter is Duration >= 1000ms., how do you do that? I tried it with the @logical_operator of "1" on both, but then I also got other events with a NULL value in READS.
Code Snippet
-- @traceID = 1
-- @columnID = 13 (Duration)
-- @logicalOperator = 1 (OR)
-- @comparison_operator = 4 (greater or equal)
-- @value = 1000000 (1000 ms)
sp_trace_setfilter 1, 13, 1, 4, 1000000
-- @traceID = 1
-- @columnID = 16 (Reads)
-- @logicalOperator = 1 (OR)
-- @comparison_operator = 4 (greater or equal)
-- @value = 10000 (# Reads)
sp_trace_setfilter 1, 16, 1, 4, 10000
Looks like DURATION is never NULL for these events>>>
RPC:Completed
SP:Completed
SPtmtCompleted
SQL:BatchCompleted
SQLtmtCompleted
but the READS value cane be null (for SP:Completed at least).
Any ideas on how to mix AND/OR operators in multiple filters of one trace?
Thanks, Bruce
Transact SQL :: Queries To Simulate INTERSECT And EXCEPT But With Records In Same Table
Jun 5, 2015I have a table (let's call it MyTable) that consists of four fields:
Id, Source, FirstField, and
SecondField, where Source only takes one of two values:
Source1 and Source2.
The records in this table look as follows:
Id
Source
FirstField
Secondfield
1
Source1
Product 3 name
Product 3 description
[code]...
I need to return, using 3 different T-SQL queries:
1) Products that exist only in Source2 (in red above)
2) Products that exist only in Source1 (in green above)
3) Products that exist both in Source1 and Source2 (in black above)
For 1) so far I've been doing something along the lines of SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source1 AND FirstField NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT (FirstField) FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source2)
I have read about INTERSECT and EXCEPT, but I am a little unclear if they could be applied in this case out of the box.
Syntax Of Operators And Common Functions In Expressions
Apr 4, 2008Hi all, real basic question:
I can't seem to find a basic reference that tells me the syntax and allowable values of parameters in common functions such as Format or CDate when editing a Field Expression in Visual Studio (Report Definition Language?). Where would I start?
For example, I've discovered that the Format function "Returns a string formatted according to instructions contained in a format String expression.", and the string expression can have values like "D" and "d" which produce different results, but where would I find out what the allowable string expressions are and their meaning?
I have also been guessing at the syntax of the CDate command with no luck. I need a reference that tells me what the different function parameters mean.
thanks

Analysis :: Doing Intersect When Filtering Multiple Values On Single Dimension
May 29, 2015Link : [URL] .....
This provides a good example for my situation. In this example, you will see a Movie dimension with four attributes; Genre, Language, Movie, and Theme. I have a similar setup except mine is Top Level Hierarchy>Categories>Values which are all under the one hierarchy.
My Question: I have the dimension setup as a multi-value parameter in one of my reports. When I filter on a value in Genre and in Language, it provides all values from that genre and all values from that language. I really only want the values that include both.
Genre - Western: Movie1, Movie2, Movie3
Language - English: Movie2, Movie4, Movie5
If I filter on Western and English, I get Movie1-5 when all I really want is Movie2 only. Is there any way to have this do an Intersect within the same dimension or do I have to build each one out into its own dimension?
Attempting To Select A Range Of Values Using Wildcard And Between Or Logical Operators?
Mar 16, 2014I am in the midst of writing a query to return a range of product BIN LOCATIONS from a warehouse stock levels program.I know the start and end BIN LOCATIONS for the warehouse, e.g.: Start - #00000, and End - Z10000.However I cannot hard code these into the program, instead I want my operator to designate the first letter of both the start and end BINS locations, and then hit the 'go button'.Towards this end I have declared a couple of variables in my SQL, as follows -
Code:
declare @strBin varchar(10)
set @strBin = ''
if @strBin = ''
set @strBin = '#%'
declare @endBin varchar(10)
if @endBin = ''
set @endBin = 'z%'
My challenge is writing a relevant WHERE clause for my select statement, I have tried the following -
Code:
where BINLOCAT.BINLABEL between @strBin and @endBin
order by BINLOCAT.BINLABEL
Whilst the clause above does not cause any errors, neither does it return any results.My first thought is that the BETWEEN operator does not accept wildcards. But if this is correct then how do I go about allowing an operator to enter the start, and end BINS without typing the entire BIN string (e.g.: #00000)? I have tried >= @strBin and <= @endBin, but I am having a similar issue with no errors, and no data returned.
