I need to split a string in two if there are lowercase characters at
the end of it.
For example:
'AAPLpr' becomes 'AAPL' and 'pr'
'Ta' becomes 'T' and 'a'
'MSFT' becomes 'MSFT' and ''
'TAPA' becomes 'TAPA' and ''
I am using SQL 2000. I read about "collate Latin1_General_CS_AS" but
not sure if I can use that outside of a select statement.
Thank you in advance for any help.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
My database is case insensitive. However, the application is case sensitive for the data in the table.
I need to find out the data from the table where the data is stored in lower case.
Here is the sample data:
Table: inv_manager
column: sku varchar(5)
Data: 1134X
1135x
1123a
b145Y
I just need query to return row 2, 3, 4.
Here is my query:
select sku from inv_manager where sku like lower('%[a-z]%')
The problem is it returns all the rows from the table including first one.
How can I return just the data with lower case ?
Thanks
Currently i have 2 type of data
A and a
But when i try to:
select * from tableA where col = 'a'
then all record with A and a will be selected, any way to avoid it and select only record with col ='a'?
Hi
I can't create unique index like that:
1 - create table abc ( colZ varchar(10) )
2 - insert into abc values ( "test")
3 - insert into abc values ("Test")
4 - create unique index idx_abc on abc ( colZ ) -- This doesnt work
.... duplicate key was found for object name abc......
Is not there difference between "Test" and "test"?
Can I work around this?
cheers,
Hello,
I have a table in sql server that has a field with numeric characters, i would like to select some but not all characters from this field and insert it into a new field. The field that i want to get some characters from has other characters that i dont need, It has a lot of zero's next to the numbers that i need. so far i created a stored procedure, but its not working. I want to extract the characters and insert them into a new field in the format "000.00" or "00.00". The values are either hunderths or tenths, which makes it difficult for me to decide which characters to ignore. Please see my SP created so far below:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spUpdatePaymentDetails
AS UPDATE dbo.PaymentDetails
SET NewAmount = SUBSTRING('00' + TransactionAmount, 1, LEN('00' +TransactionAmount) - 2) + '.' + SUBSTRING('00' + TransactionAmount, LEN('00' + TransactionAmount) - 1, 2)
GO
the character "." is not in the original field so therefore i would like to insert it into the new field.
Please help urgently.
Tnx
I've the following data:
<Hour>11</Hour><Hour>12</Hour><Hour>15</Hour><Hour>18</Hour>
And my goals is to the extract the following example:
11,12, 15, 18
How Can I do That?
SQL Query. What i need is to be able to extract specific characters from data.
Eg name
1.2-KPIA1-App-00001 this is a name i require, but i also require the '1.2' and the 'KPIA1' to be displayed in new columns in the results
i.e. 1.2-KPIA1-App-00001 1.2 KPIA1
*I need this in part of a script as there is thousands of rows of data.

Using SQL2014 I need to use a Chinese collation. I have been told that even with a Chinese collation Latin characters are there. Is there a Chinese collation that will provide Latin case-insensitive behavior?
I have a table PLACE with a character column CODE
[Code] [nchar](4) NULL
I need to left pad the column with 0 if it is less than 4 characters long and extract the first 2 characters on the left into a new column COUNTY_CODE.
How can I do that in transact SQL?
I tried:
   Â
SELECT Â RIGHT(RTRIM('0000'+ISNULL([Code],'')),4) Â Â Â
  FROM [Place]
  WHERE [Place Code]='B' and [Code]='627'
And I got 0627. And how do I extract the first 2 characters?

Hello,
I have been having a hard time with this issue. I am attempting to join a table onto itself to get the closest date onto a single row.
What i mean is:
I have the following data
id date
1 10/07/08
2 10/06/07
3 10/06/03
4 10/06/03
the new table should have the current id and the one closes to it as so.
1 10/07/08 2 10/06/07
2 10/06/07 3 10/06/03
3 10/06/03 null null
4 10/06/03 null null
but i am getting duplicates do to the 10/06/03.
1 10/07/08 2 10/06/07
2 10/06/07 3 10/06/03
2 10/06/07 4 10/06/03
3 10/06/03 null null
4 10/06/03 null null
i want so that if there is a duplicate i can take the id thats higher. I cant figure it out.
This is my current sql:
SELECT PB.ID,PB.StartDate, PB2.ID, PB2.Startdate
from table PB
left outer join table PB2 on PB.keyID = PB2.keyID
and PB2.StartDate < PB.StartDate
and PB.StartDate = (select top(1) StartDate from table PB3 where PB.keyID = PB3.keyID
and PB2.StartDate < PB3.StartDate order by PB3.StartDate asc)
Thanks for the help.
I have following problem:table includes times for startup and end of operation as datetime fieldrelated to daily shift operations:dateid date starttime endtime458 2006-12-29 22:00 23:15458 2006-12-29 00:15 01:30459 2006-12-30 20:00 21:10459 2006-12-30 22:15 23:35459 2006-12-30 23:30 00:40459 2006-12-30 01:50 02:30records are inserted for a date related to begining of the shift, althoughsome operations are performed also past the midnight (actualy next day, ex:2006-12-31), but belongs to same shift (group)Now I need to build a function that corrects (updates) the date of everyoperation recorded after midnight to a date+1 value, so all records relatedto same groups (458, 459, etc) that starts after midnight has correct date.The procedure has to update already exiting table.Any solution?Grey
View 8 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I have a big problem with the design and the queries of a couple of tables. I have to calculate the weighted average of the number of days between an invoice and the sum of its payments (rateal payments), weighting this number with the invoice's amount, and only when the sum of the invoice's payments equal invoice amount.
I have designed two FactTables to accomplish this:
Example:
data in the fist table (FactInvoice) looks like this:
CustomerId, InvoiceDate, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 1000.00
1234567 2008-04-10 150 2000.00
and data in the second one (FactPayments) looks as below:
CustomerId, PaymentDate, InvoiceNumber, PaymentsAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 500
1234567 2008-03-15 123 500
1234567 2008-04-20 150 800
1234567 2008-04-23 150 1200
Let's suppose that I'm querying the cube for the customer 1234567, at the date 2008-05-01. I need to sum the payments for the first invoice multiplicating it for the count of days elapsed, then divide the number by the InvoiceAmount (or PaymentsAmount, is the same) : (0 days * 500‚¬ + 5 days * 500‚¬ + 10 days * 800‚¬ + 13 days * 1200)/3000‚¬ = 8,7 days of weighted average to cash an invoice.
How can I do this with Analisys Services ? Is it too complicated ? Here, in the southern Italy, the problem of customer's debit is heavily felt, and total like this are really important!
Any help or suggestion will be really appreciated.

I am trying to get this code to work: (left(religion,1))+ lower(right(religion,len(religion)-1))As Religion
I am getting this error:
Invalid length parameter passed to the RIGHT function.
In the database, most of our cities are stored in all upper case. For reporting purposes, I need to have them returned as upper/lower.  I used the below function, which works great for one word cities.  However I can’t figure out how to get it to capitalize the 1st letter of each word, for addresses containing multiple names such as Rancho Santa Margarita.Â
Upper(left(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY,1))+lower(substring(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY, 2, LEN(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY)))As ADDRESSCITY
This returns back: ‘Rancho santa margarita’; I need it to return ‘Rancho Santa Margarita’. Is this possible to do at the query level?
I'm still haven't resolved the issue with displaying information from a SQL database. The text I'm displaying is in ALL CAPS in the SQL database, and I'm trying to convert it so that when I display it in gridview, The First Letter Of Each Word Is Capitalized, as apposed to ALL CAPS. I've tried the text-transform feature of CSS, but I noticed in a SQL book there are LOWER() & UPPER() string functions. The ideal thing to do then, would be to do some select statement that converts all the incoming text to lowercase, then use the CSS text-transform: capitalize , to convert the first letter of each word to caps. Basically, I need a select statement or something that converts my sql material to lowercase. Thanks.

Hi everybody,
I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?

I have a virtual server (VMware ESX) with 64GB RAM running a single instance of SQL 2012 SP1. The max memory config is set to 59392 (58GB).
The Page Life Expectancy for this server has been averaging well under 10 mins for the last few days, according to our monitoring.
I have been checking the amount of data in the buffer cache periodically during the day with the below query, which seems to show that there is never more than about 10GB of data at any one time, frequently dropping below 5GB:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS BufferPages,
CONVERT(decimal(10, 2), COUNT(*) / 128.0) AS BufferMB
FROM sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptorsWhy would the amount of cached data be so low (and cause so much churn)?
I am aware that other things will require some of that memory (plan cache etc.) but with Max Mem of 58GB, I would expect there to be a much higher amount of actual cached data at any one time. I did the same checks on another VM with the same amount of RAM/Max Mem setting, and there was 50GB of data in the cache, with PLE measured in hours.
Good day experts,
I wonder if i got an answer for this.
