Hello,
I want to order by a field that is a code, like 1,2,3,11,12,13, and i get the following error
"Only text pointers are allowed in work tables, never text, ntext, or image columns sql server"
Why do i get this, what can i do to overcome this?
Thank you
I wanted to use UNION and 'order by' in the same script but it keeps giving me error
eg;
select name,date
where name = 'sel'
union
select name,date
where name = 'ali'
order by name
I don't know where to put the 'order by'
Can anybody help me?
Hi
I have two tables which I'm combining.
Select employeeID as id, startDt as startDate from Table1
union all
Select CustomerID as id, startDt as startDate from Table2
order by startDt
This works fine, unfortunately, my problem is I only want to display the first latest customer. In a Union All, how do i distinguish whether I'm ordering the table it is trying to union or the actual unioned table tiself?
For example, this does not work.
Select employeeID as id, startDt as startDate from Table1
union all
Select top 1 CustomerID as id, startDt as startDate from Table2
order by startDt desc
order by startDt
hello,
I have 2 tables which contain a lot of articles, and they have same structure.
what I want to do is that, select top 10 articles from each table and then union those records to another table, also I need to order these articles in desc order by their added date before i union them.
what I know is that for union sql phrase , there is only one order by is allowed, so how could I order those 2 tables before i union them.
thanks

I am trying to use dynamic ORDER BY with UNION in a stored procedure but I keep getting this error message:
ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION, INTERSECT or EXCEPT operator.
The ORDER BY works fine without the UNION, and the UNION works fine without the dynamic ORDER BY (just putting an ORDER BY works fine)
Here is the whole query in case this helps, thank you

Hi,
I'm currently have a problem with a query using a top clause. When I run it by itself as a single query, I have no problems and the results are valid. However, if I try duplicate the query after a union clause, the order by ... desc doesn't order properly.
The following is the query I'm using along with the results. Then I'll have the query I was trying to unite and the results (date ranges selected were the same in both):

View 1 Replies View RelatedAll,I've seen several posts regarding using UNION or UNION ALL to mashtogether two or more resultsets into a single result set, but can'tseem to find enough info here to help me answer my particularquestion.I have a stored procedure that gets the column names in a particularformat (i.e. "chassis_id"|"chassis_description"|"modify_date") as wellas actual data for a given table (in a quote-separated, pipe-delimitedmanner i.e. "1"|"description for the chassis"|"2004-09-08").I'd like to get both of these resultsets and mash them together. Thisworks, but when I need to order the second resultset (i.e. select *from chassis order by chassis_id), SQL Server returns an errorcomplaining about the chassis_id column name (invalid column name'chassis_id') in the Order By clause.From what I can tell, I'm using the UNION and Order By in correctly,but I'm not sure exactly what's wrong with it. If I take out the OrderBy, everything works great. Although I would like to be able to ordermy second resultset (in the same sproc) if possible.The actual queries I'm running are actually quite long, but here's onethat's a bit shorter to help illustrate:SELECT '"app_group_id"|"app_group_name"|"create_date"|"create_by"|"modify_date"|"modify_by"'UNION ALLSELECT + ISNULL(CONVERT(varchar,app_group_id), '') + '|'+ SUBSTRING(RTRIM(LTRIM(CONVERT(varchar, 1))), 1,0)+ '"' + ISNULL(CONVERT(varchar(1000), +REPLACE(CONVERT(nvarchar(4000),app_group_name), '"', '""')), '') +'"|'+ SUBSTRING(RTRIM(LTRIM(CONVERT(varchar, 2))), 1,0)FROM app_grouporder by app_group_idThank for any help on this./bc

Hi all,
I have the following UNION ALL statement that is my attempt to gather data for the past 5 weekdays (adding a "dummy" row for today's data).
I want the final output to end up in descending order, so for today, I would want today first, then Tuesday, then Monday, then Friday, then Thursday (provided there is data for each sequential day - if not, you get the idea, I want to select back to get the latest 5 days, most recent to oldest).
This select fails, because it doesn't like the ORDER BY in the subqueryselect
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END AS Dow, 'N/A' AS Freight
UNION ALL
(select top 4
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END as DOW,
CAST(CONVERT(int, (Freight * 100)) as VARCHAR(10)) as Freight
from Northwind.dbo.orders where employeeid = 9 order by [OrderDate] desc )
I know you can't use an ORDER BY in a subquery, UNLESS the subquery also uses a TOP n (which this one does)...but does anyone know why this isn't liking my code?
I got the select to work the way I want it to by doing the following (really UGLY) code...SELECT U.DOW, U.Freight FROM
((select
GETDATE() as [OrderDate],
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END AS Dow, 'N/A' AS Freight )
UNION ALL
(select h.OrderDate as [OrderDate], h.DOW, h.Freight FROM
(select top 4
[OrderDate] as [OrderDate],
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Monday' THEN

WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Thursday' THEN

WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END as DOW,
CAST(CONVERT(int, (Freight * 100)) as VARCHAR(10)) as Freight
from Northwind.dbo.orders where employeeid = 9 order by [OrderDate] desc ) H)) U
order by OrderDate descbut am still confounded about why my original sub-select is rejected with such impunity.
My confusion seems likely related to understanding the set theory or basic concepts of the building of the select/Union rather than the way I am using the ORDER BY syntax, but I just can't seem to explain it to myself.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
This query works perfectly and orders by just as I need
Code:

However, when I use it in a Union All so I can pull data from 2 diff tables, the order by statement no longer works. How can I order by data in 2 tables?
Code:
Select
'1st' As [Type],
#Uno.ID
#Uno.Address,

Hi,
I'm trying to write a UNION statement with 2 selects and can't figure out for the life of me how to do it.
select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY dateJoined
UNION
select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY lastLogin
The union works fine without the order by's, but I really need the order by's in there and I don't understand why its so difficult to do. Surely there must be some other strategy?
Any help is much appreciated.. thanks!!

hi all,

now i want to ad a limit to this statement, but i can't get it working. i have tried this:SELECT * FROM (SELECT [Name], [EventID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], [Date], NULL AS [StartDate], [Date] AS [SortDate], [Type] FROM [Events] WHERE [TourID] IS NULL AND AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel UNION SELECT [Name], [TourID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], NULL AS [Date], [StartDate], [StartDate] AS [SortDate], '2' AS [Type] FROM [Tours]WHERE AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel) ORDER BY [SortDate] LIMIT 2
but i keep getting an error message saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword "ORDER". what am i doing wrong?

Hi!
I'm trying to get the results from three different tables, where they have some of the same results. I'm only interested in where they match and then trying to order by date (that's in three columns - M, D, Y). I read previous post in 9/07 but the result doesn't seem to order correctly. It does not have any rhyme or reason to the outputed results as it bounces back and forth through Oct, Nov and Dec posting and throughout all three tables. Here's my query below. Any ideas how I can get my ordering correct for all three tables to display all Oct, all Nov and all Dec?
Thanks so much

I have the following as part of a union query:
CONVERT(CHAR(8), r.RRDate, 1) AS [Date]
I also want to order by date but when I do that it doesn't order correctly because of the conversion to char data type (for example, it puts 6/15/05 before 9/22/04 because it only looks at the first number(s) and not the year). If I try to cast it back to smalldatetime in the order by clause it tells me that ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION operator. I get the same message if I try putting just "r.RRDate" in the ORDER BY clause. It's not that big of a deal - I can lose the formatting on the date if I need to to get it to sort correctly, but this query gets used frequently and I'd like to keep the formatting if possible.
Thanks,
Dave

SQL Server 2008 r2...
I have a query which does 3 selects and Union ALLs each to get a final result set. The performance is unacceptable - takes around a minute to run. If I remove the Union All so that the result sets are returned individually it returns all 3 from the query in around 6 seconds (acceptable performance).
Any way to join the result sets together without using Union All.
Each result set has exactly the same structure returned...
Query below [for reference]...

SELECT A.[PoleID], ISNULL(B.[IsSpanClear], 0) AS [IsSpanClear], B.[SurveyDate], ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY A.[PoleID] ORDER BY B.[SurveyDate] DESC) rownum

LEFT OUTER JOIN [UT_Surveyed_Pole] B ON A.[PoleID] = B.[PoleID]

I have a flat file source, OLE DB Source, and a Script component, all with output columns defined and loaded. The flat file source has a connection manager defined, as does the OLE DB Source. The Script is just a counter.
I'd like to put the value from each, into a row, then into an OLE DB Destination table. It seems harder than it appears.
Thanks for the look!
when i try to run this following query, i get an error message:

when i use UNION ALL, i get repeated rows. i need the select distinct on it.
please, help.
thanks in advance.

I am having an issue when trying to union all between two databases.
This is the error:
Implicit conversion of varchar value to varchar cannot be performed because the collation of the value is unresolved due to a collation conflict.
I have updated the collation in both DB to Latin1_General_CI_AS and I am still getting the error when running the query.
The queries run separately ok. why I am still getting the collation error.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems? I've been trying to use "Row number" from sqlis.com site with "Union All" but no lucks.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "Union All" (1840) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0x80070057.

Why the sequence different?
select * from (
select id=3,[name]='Z'
union all select 1,'G'
union all select 2,'R'
union all select 4,'Z'
) as t
order by [name]
--result:
---------
--1 G
--2 R
--4 Z
--3 Z
select * from (
select id=3,[name]='Z'
union select 1,'G'
union all select 2,'R'
union all select 4,'Z'
) as t
order by [name]
--result:
----------
--1 G
--2 R
--3 Z--changed
--4 Z
Here is an example of what I am exactly doing!! CREATE VIEW NamesAS SELECT ID, fName, lName FROM Table1 UNION ALL SELECT id, FirstName, LastName FROM TABLE2. On Executing this...I'm getting the following error.
The Query Designer does not support the UNION SQL construct:
