Error Using Case Expression In Order By Statement
Feb 22, 2008
I have been trying to get the following Selects to work using a case expression in the order by section.
I know I can easily separate out the two statements but I want to do a select using the case statement below ;
however, I keep getting error 16 --"Order by items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a union.
If remove the case statement and put order by "internalID desc" I receive no errors. Moreover, when I take out the union statement and execute the two select statements with each including the case expression it runs as planned.
Can anyone tell what the problem is here? I have combed the web looking for an answer, but it seems that the statement is valid.
Thanks
J
declare @date
set @date = '2001'
select internalID from section_data_v3
union
select internalID from section_data_v4
order by
case when (@date = '2001') then internalID end desc

The query below at the bottom works, but when I try to add the line below (a third line/argument in the CASE statement) then I get an error. It is not possible to have a table name and a DESC (sort order) in the same CASE line/argument. Are there other ways to accomplish this, because I would like to sort with both "h.ObjectType" and "h.ObjectType DESC"? WHEN @SortBy = 2 THEN h.ObjectType DESC SELECT weight, ObjectText.ObjectId, ObjectText.ObjectType, ObjectText.Title, ObjectText.ShortText FROM @hits h INNER JOIN ObjectText ON h.id = ObjectText.ObjectId AND h.ObjectType = ObjectText.ObjectType WHERE ObjectText.LanguageCode = @LanguageCode ORDER BY CASE WHEN @SortBy = 0 THEN weight WHEN @SortBy = 1 THEN h.ObjectType END DESCRegards, Sigurd

I use Order By Used with Case Statement and may be this is the reason for which i am getting error
Windowed functions can only appear in the SELECT or ORDER BY clauses.
Here is my complete sql where i use Row_Number function for pagination with sorting.
DECLARE @StartIndex INT
DECLARE @EndIndex INT
DECLARE @SortColumn VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @SortDirection VARCHAR(MAX)
SET @StartIndex = 1

I would appreciate assistance as to how I should correct the following CASE expression::
BilledCarrier = CASE LEN(cur_billed_carrier) WHEN >0 THEN cur_billed_carrier ELSE 'Not Billed' END
I want to return the cur_billed_carrier when its length is >0 but I can't find the correct syntax. My attempt returns an error at the '>' operator. Thank you.

I am trying to order by the field and direction as provided by input parameters @COLTOSORTBY and @DIR while using a CTE and assigning Row_Number, but am running into syntax errors.
Say I have a table called myTable with columns col1,col2,col3,
Here's what I'm trying to do
with myCTE AS
(
Select
col1
,col2
,col3
,row_number() over (order by
case when(@DIR = 'ASC') then
case when @COLTOSORTBY='col1' then col1 asc
when @COLTOSORTBY='col2' then col2 asc
else col3 asc
end
else
case when @COLTOSORTBY='col1' then col1 desc
when @COLTOSORTBY='col2' then col2 desc
else col3 desc
end
end
from myTable
)
Please let me know what i can do with minimal code repetition and achive my goal of dynamically sorting column and direction. I do not want to use dynamic SQL under any circumstance.
Thanks.

Hi All,
I've looked through the forum hoping I'm not the only one with this issue but alas, I have found nothing so I'm hoping someone out there will give me some assistance.
My problem is the case statement in my Insert Statement. My overall goal is to insert records from one table to another. But I need to be able to assign a specific value to the incoming data and thought the case statement would be the best way of doing it. I must be doing something wrong but I can't seem to see it.
Here is my code:
Insert into myTblA
(TblA_ID,
mycasefield =
case
when mycasefield = 1 then 99861
when mycasefield = 2 then 99862
when mycasefield = 3 then 99863
when mycasefield = 4 then 99864
when mycasefield = 5 then 99865
when mycasefield = 6 then 99866
when mycasefield = 7 then 99867
when mycasefield = 8 then 99868
when mycasefield = 9 then 99855
when mycasefield = 10 then 99839
end,
alt_min,
alt_max,
longitude,
latitude
(
Select MTB.LocationID
MTB.model_ID
MTB.elevation, --alt min
null, --alt max
MTB.longitude, --longitude
MTB.latitude --latitude
from MyTblB MTB
);
The error I'm getting is:
Incorrect syntax near '='.
I have tried various versions of the case statement based on examples I have found but nothing works.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance with this one. I've been smacking my head against the wall for awhile trying to find a solution.

Hi all,
How do i execute a stored procedure in the THEN CLAUSE of my CASE STATEMENT? Av been getting errors since.
Here is my code:
Alter PROCEDURE sp_getTxn (
@m1 int = Null,
@txn int = Null,
@p2 int = Null,
@amt int = Null,
@pAccountno varchar(50) = 'Null',
@DAcct int = Null,
@Balance Decimal(19,4) = NULL OUTPUT,
@pBalance Decimal(19,4) = NULL OUTPUT,
@RowsReturned smallint = NULL OUTPUT )
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
select CASE
WHEN @m1 = 200 THEN case
when @txn = 00 then ('exec dbo.CustOrderHist (@CrAcct int)')
when @txn = 01 then ('exec dbo.Sp_withdrawal')
when @txn = 31 then exec dbo.CheckBalance(@pAccountno varchar(50), @pBalance Decimal(19,4) OUTPUT)
when @txn = 38 then ('exec dbo.Sp_StatementOfAcct')
END
END
WHEN @m1 = 420 THEN case
when @txnType = 00 then ('exec dbo.Sp_reversal')
when @txnType = 01 then ('exec dbo.Sp_reversal2')
when @txnType = 31 then ('exec dbo.Sp_reversal3')
END
END
SET @Balance = @pBalance
Print @Balance
Or is there an alternative to the above CASE statement that is easier and faster?
Thanks

I am trying to write a Procedure in SQL 2005 that retreives a list of rows from the database. I pass to the procedure sorting parameters. This procedure works fine for all of the fields that I enter in the Order By, except for one.
The field that does not work is a varchar(500) field (named Description).
I am not sure what the problem is.
The error that I am getting is:

Attached is the T-SQL Code. The declare and set statements in the beginning are for informational purposes.

I have a view where I'm using a series of conditions within a CASE statement to determine a numeric shipment status for a given row. In addition, I need to bring back the corresponding status text for that shipment status code.
Previously, I had been duplicating the CASE logic for both columns, like so:
Code Block...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This works, but the logic for each of the case conditions is rather long. I'd like to move away from this for easier code management, plus I imagine that this isn't the best performance-wise.
This is what I'd like to do:
Code Block
...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE shipment_status
WHEN 1 THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN 2 THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This runs as a query, however all of the rows now should "Error" as the value for shipment_status_text.
Is what I'm trying to do even currently possible in T-SQL? If not, do you have any other suggestions for how I can accomplish the same result?
Thanks,
Jason

In the Portal1 case expression in the script at the bottom I would liketo replace where the result 1 is returned, with the substring functionreturned as Portal{SUBSTRING(Field1, CHARINDEX('tonep', Field1) + 4, (CHARINDEX('.txt',Field1) - 8) - (CHARINDEX('tonep', Field1) + 4))}However, I am experiencing errors. I think it is because The substringfunction will not return a number as the case expression expects so Imust incorporate cast or convert, but do not know how. Can you help???SELECT portal1 = CASE WHEN len(Field1) > 5 THEN 1 ELSE '' END,SUBSTRING(Field1, CHARINDEX('tonep', Field1) + 4, (CHARINDEX('.txt',Field1) - 8)- (CHARINDEX('tonep', Field1) + 4)) AS portal,Table.*FROM Table

I run the following query in SQL Server Mobile editor. When I remove "order by", I have no problem at all.

where Inv_StockIDP.PrdCode = Product.Code AND (Inv_StockIDP.ExecDate BETWEEN '13850602' AND '13850614')
group by PrdCode, Name)
order by PrdCode
When I run this query accompanied by "order by" expression, I receive the following error:
Expression evaluation caused an overflow. [ Name of function (if known) = ]
When I reduce the number of result rows by reducing the Date interval, the query will run without any problem.
What is the problem?

But my SQL Server gave me error: syntax error arround '>'.I did several search and many people can use the ">" sign or "<" sign in the Case expression, but I just can't use it in my SQL Server, I can't even use any boolean expression, I can only use values.can anyone help me out?

Hi,
Maybe this is just totally wrong but this is what I'm trying to do. I want to dynamically insert a value using a CASE expression while executing an external SP from my current SP.
EXEC uspAddMessage @UserId,
CASE @MyAction
WHEN 'DELETE' THEN 'DELETED TRANSACTION.'
WHEN 'APPROVE' THEN 'TRANSACTION APPROVED.'
WHEN 'REJECT' THEN 'TRANSACTION REJECTED.'
END,
@DateStamp
Keep in mind that this is in my stored proc that is doing the processing. I'm calling this common proc when I complete my transactions.
Thanks,

I am one very frustrated beginner. If it were not for wonderful information in this forum I would have taken early retirement by now!
Table contains information about new and departing computer and phone users in several departments which we support. This is an existing table which I'm trying to clean up.
The essential part:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[HelpDesk_NewUser](
[AutoNumber] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[SubmittedDate] [datetime] NULL,
[FirstName] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[LastName] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[Department] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[StartDate] [datetime] NULL,
[DepartDate] [datetime] NULL
[RequestedBy] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[UpdatedBy] [varchar](16) NOT NULL,
[CurrentStatus] [varchar](10) NOT NULL ,
[DateCurrentStatus] [datetime] NULL,
[FormType] [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
) ON [PRIMARY]
There can be more than one record per FirstName, LastName. FormType can be N for new or D for departing.
I want to do this for each record:
Read the FormType and Department from the record with the most recent activity (SubmittedDate) for each user
Convert Department to a 4 character department number
Update CurrentStatus with (FormType concatenated with the 4 character dept number) in all records for that user.
I have created another table called UserMostRecent which contains the most recent record for each user.
I have written a query to do this by brute force (read a record, set local variables, update a record), but I would like learn a simpler way to do it. I don't understand the syntax of CASE because it seems to change depending on where it is used.
Here is what I have tried that does not work. Error is "Incorrect syntax near word CASE"
UPDATE HelpDesk_NewUser
SET DateCurrentStatus = b.DateMostRecent,
CurrentStatus = (b.FormType + a.Department
CASE
WHEN 'Roads Department' THEN '3000'
WHEN 'Engineering and Survey Services' THEN '1900'
WHEN 'Waste Management' THEN '8999'
WHEN 'Kern Air Pollution Control District' THEN '9149'
WHEN 'Environmental Health' THEN '4113'
WHEN 'Building Inspection' THEN '2625'
WHEN 'Animal Control' THEN '2760'
WHEN 'Planning Department' THEN '2750'
WHEN 'Community and Economic Development' THEN '5940'
WHEN 'Resource Management Agency' THEN '2730'
WHEN 'Code Compliance' THEN '2620'
WHEN 'Roads Kern Regional Transit' THEN '8998'
END)
FROM HelpDesk_NewUser a JOIN UserMostRecent b
ON (a.LastName = b.LastName and a.FirstName = b.FirstName)
Thank you, forum participants. You are the best!

Is it possible? I have a request to create a stored proc that willdynamically add a range to a WHERE clause based on a numeric value of acomment type. If the incoming comment type request is say 10, thewhere clause needs to be set to IN(10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19)OR ifa 20 is passed in the clause would read IN(20,21.....)So I was thinking that a CASE expression within the proc would be thebest way to go, but have had no luck in finding an example or any otherrelated information regarding CASE exp in a proc.TIABill

I have a scenario where the End User is going to select two parameters. @AgentID and @Location If the End User selects @AgentID parameter, in my WHERE clause, I do not want to check the location condition. By default, the agent knows their location already.
If the End User select @Location parameter, in my WHERE clause, I still want to check the Agent condition.
@AgentID parameter would populate either with "All" or their actual agent# (76754 for example).
@Location parameter would populate either with "All" or their actual location (Birmingham or Bessemer for example)Sample of my current WHERE clause:
WHERE
gl.ReceiptDate >= @BeginDate and gl.ReceiptDate < DATEADD(D,1,@EndDate)
AND gl.AgentId = CASE WHEN @AgentID = 'All' THEN gl.AgentID ELSE @AgentID END
AND gl.Location = @Location

hi,
I can not get the right result from the following query
SELECT Equipment.AreaID AS AreaNo, Equipment.EquipmentNo
FROM Area INNER JOIN
Equipment ON Area.AreaID = Equipment.AreaID
ORDER BY Area.AreaNo, Equipment.EquipmentNo
i want to force Area.AreaNo in Order BY i.e. the resultset is sorted on the values from AreaNo column in Table Area, but it seems that Equipment.AreaID AS AreaNo values become Area.AreaNo and resultset is sorted on AreaId rather than AreaNo.
How can i force it to sort on AreaNo values in the Area table without changing Equipment.AreaID AS AreaNo to something else.

How would I convert an expression like on of these to all upper case first letters with remaining letters lower case? VB has a function for that but sql doesn't seem to. I thought about having a loop go through each character to check for spaces. I've written a couple of similar pieces of code in VB when a while ago, but is there a better way? Thanks :)
Just a couple of typical examples of how the data should appear ~
payment, credit card ==> Payment, Credit Card
