I want to find out which records were created within a given period of time per user. For example I want to know if the user "georgev" (or any users) has created more than one record in this table within a 2 minute period.
Hopefully thsi will warm your brains this cold Monday morning :p
In a report there are following in parameters: from date, to date, from time and to time.
I need to match these search criteria€™s against start time and stop time in assignments. The trick: How to write SQL that meets all different cases that can arise.
The query need's to traverse through every assignment, and see if its start and stop time is in the interval given by the user.
It should then return the minutes from the assignment that is within the interval.
I'm thinking of packaging the minute "extracting" logic in a Scalar-valued function.
It should then take the in parameters from the user, and start time and stop time from the assignment as arguments.
To consider: Crossing midnight.
E.g. the user puts in
From date: 2008-05-24
From time: 22:00:00
To date: 2008-05-26
To time: 02:00:00
Since the user wants to evaluate a time span that crosses midnight,
I'll have to look in to time spans like:
2008-05-24 22:00:00 - 2008-05-24 23:59:59
2008-05-25 00:00:00 - 2008-05-25 02:00:00
2008-05-25 22:00:00 - 2008-05-25 23:59:59
2008-05-26 00:00:00 - 2008-05-26 02:00:00
Furthermore the start- and stop time can be partially in the above interval.
E.g. an assignment starts 2008-05-24 21:46:11 and stops 2008-05-24 22:36:05.
This would then yield from the time spans above 36 minutes.
Consider a table that holds Internet browsing history for users/machines,date/timed to the minute. The object is to tag all times that are separatedby previous and subsequent times by x number of minutes or less (it couldvary, and wouldn't necessarily be a convenient round number). This willenable reporting "active time" for users (a dubious inference, but hey).There are a lot of derivative ways of seeing this information that might begood to get to. What's the fist and last of these sets of times? Whatpercentage of a given period is spanned by active times, and not? What isthe average duration of such periods? What is the average interval betweenweb hits during such periods? During other times?Blah, blah. The basic problem is my principal problem. I don't have muchexperience with cursors, but from what I understand it would be very goodindeed to spare them, given the number of records I anticipate workingwith.I'd be glad of any pointers.--Scott
I can easily find user created stat in a databaseSELECT * FROM DB.sys.stats WHERE user_created=1But how do I determine what tables those stats are in? with over 6000 tables I don't feel like looking through all the tables.
Hi,I have a table in SQLServer2000 where e.g. the actual time is insert forevery record (smalldatetime). But how do I select every records newerthan 90 minutes?/Chris
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[table_Data]') AND type in (N'U')) DROP TABLE [dbo].[table_Data] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[table_Data] Script Date: 04/21/2015 22:07:49 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[table_Data]') AND type in (N'U'))
I searched for all the posts which covered my question - but none were close enough to answer what i'm trying to do. Basically, the scenario is thus;
Table1 contains values for UserID, Account code, and Date.
My query (below) is trying to find all the accounts assigned to a particular user ID, but also those duplicate account codes which belong to a second user ID. The date column would be appended to the result set.
The query I'm using is as follows;
select acccountcode, userid, date from dbo.table1 where exists (select accountcode from dbo.table1 where accountcode = table1.accountcode group by accountcode having count(*) > 1) and userid = 'x-x-x' order by accountcode
What I think this produces is a list of all files where a duplicate exists, but of course it leaves out the 2nd UserID...which is crucial.
Hopefully this makes sense. Any insight my fellow DBA's can share would be greatly appreciated!
I need to create a table that would be the result set of a comparisonbetween table a and table b? Table a and b first 2 fields will always bethe same (CustomerName and CustomerNumber). But if the Address1 fieldchanges in table a, I would like to throw that whole row into mycomparison table. Almost like a Select Into with a sub query that wouldinclude a WHERE TableA.field <> TableB.field. I would need to do thiscomparison for about 8 fields. Help appreciated for my syntax is prettybad.

Here's what I'd like to be able to do: I have a queue that holds any number tasks, so something like this here:
queue_1 task_a
task_b task_c task_d
Workers are assigned to teams, Red team, Blue team, Green team. What I need to do is identify instances where all tasks for a given queue have been handled by one team. Once a task has been assigned to a queue any team can work on it, but when only one team has completed every task in a queue a bonus should be awarded.
I'm looking for this to award a bonus: queue_num task_num team queue_1 task_a red task_b red task_c red task_d red
No bonus for any team here queue_num task_num team queue_1 task_a red task_b blue task_c red task_d green
So the red team earns a bonus. Now, I have thousands of queues each containing any number of tasks. Using T-SQL how can I find all queues where only one team was responsible for completeing every task assigned to the queue? Do I have to use a cursor and eval each task coming through or is there a faster, more efficient way to handle this in SQL?
I need to find the name of the user that signed in to the web page. For this, I have a web page with a text box, the program should access a SQL database use, use the userID and return the name. My code (working) does the following:string mySqlQuery = ""; string strCnn = "";SqlDataReader myDataReader = null; mySqlQuery = "SELECT c_name FROM database WHERE c_user='demo'"; //connect to the databasestrCnn = "Data Source=" + connectionServer + "; Initial Catalog=" + connectionDatabase + "; user id=" + connectionUserID + "; password=" + connectionPassword + "; Integrated Security=false";cnn = new SqlConnection(strCnn);
try { cnn.Open();MessageBox.Show("Success Opening the Database"); } catch {MessageBox.Show("Problems with the database"); }SqlCommand sqlSelectCommand = new SqlCommand(mySqlQuery, cnn);
tbName.Text = "me"; cnn.Close();
This works, I just need to retrieve the value of c_name. Any help, thanks
Does anyone have a good query that would return records from two tables that are found in one, but not it the other table? In my situation I have 2 tables that are duplicate tables and I need to find an additional 3000 records that were added to one of the tables. I also have a composite key so the query would have col1, col2 and col3 as the composite key. So far I have tried concatenating the 3 columns and giving the result an alias and then trying to show the ones that were not in both tables, but have been struggling. Thanks..
When records are initially created, they are given statuses of New, Pending, Closed
By default, the status is New.
If no action has been taken after 15 days since the records were created, users are sent a reminder.
I have this part working.
The problem is that as long as the status is not equal to closed, start sending reminders every 10 days.
Here is what I am working with:
SELECT [ID] , [Name], [Email], Status FROMmyTable WHERE Status_Name != 'Closed' AND Status_Name IS NOT NULL and Status_Name = 'New' and Status='Pending' AND CONVERT(Char,DateAdd(day,-15,getdate()),101) = CONVERT(Char,Date_Entered,101)
I have a CRM database that has a lot of tables and would like to be able to extract the last 'x' records in descending order from each table based on a common a field 'modifiedon' that is in every table and is auto populated by the system.
I have this 40,000,000 rows table... I am trying to clean this 'Contacts' table since I know there are a lot of duplicates.
At first, I wanted to get a count of how many there are.
I need to compare records where these fields are matched:
MATCHED: (email, firstname) but not MATCH: (lastname, phone, mobile). MATCHED: (email, firstname, mobile) But not MATCH: (lastname, phone) MATCHED: (email, firstname, lastname) But not MATCH: (phone, mobile)
create table dbo.customer ( customer_id int identity primary key clustered, customer_name nvarchar(256) not null ) create table dbo.purchase_order ( purchase_order_id int identity primary key clustered customer_id int not null, amount money not null, order_date date not null )
Implement a query for the report that will provide the following information: for each customer output at most 5 different dates which contain abnormally high or low amounts (bigger or less than 3 times SDTDEV from AVG), for each of these dates output minimum and maximum amounts as well.
trying to get a new database created then running a script to created the tables, relationships, indexes and insert default data. All this I'm making happen during the installation of my Windows application. I'm installing SQL 2012 Express as a prerequisite of my application and then opening a connection to that installed SQL Server using Windows Authentication.Â
E.g.: Data Source=ComputerNameSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=SSPI; Then I run a query from my code to create the database eg: "CREATE DATABASE [MyDatabaseName]".
From this point I run a script using a Batch file containing "SQLCMD....... Myscriptname.sql". In my script I have my tables being created using "Use [MyDatabaseName]   Go  CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTableName] .....". So question is, should I have [dbo]. as part of my Create Table T-SQL commands? Can I remove "[dbo]."? Who would be the owner of the database? If I can remove the [dbo]., should I also remove dbo. from any query string from within my code?
Hey :)I'm facing a lot of troubles trying to create a new pause/break-system. Right now i'm building up the query that counts how many records that is inside 2 fields. Let me first show you my table: ID (int) | stamp_start (Type: DateTime) | stamp_end (Type: DateTime) | Username (varchar)0 | 17-03-07 12:00:00 | 17-03-07 12:30:00 | Hovgaard The client will enter a start time and a end time and this query should then count how many records that are inside this periode of time. Example: The client enter starttime: 12:05 and endtime: 12:35.The query shall then return 1 record found. The same thing if the user enters 12:20 and 12:50.My current query looks like this:SELECT COUNT(ID) AS Expr1 FROM table WHERE (start_stamp <= @pausetime_start) AND (end_stamp >= @pausetime_end)But this will only count if I enter the exact same times as the one inside the table.Any ideas how I can figure this out?Thanks for your time so far :)/Jonas Hovgaard - Denmark
writing the query for the following, I need to collapse the continuity. If the termdate for an ID is one day less than the effdate of the next id (for the same ID) i need to collapse the records. See below example .....how should i write the query which will give me the desired output. i.e., get min(effdate) and max(termdate) if termdate is one day less than the effdate of next record.
I have a job where the first step starts and checks for a condition. If its not true, I want it to reset itself and start again in 10 minutes. I'm using sp_stop_job and sp_update_jobschedule and, initially, it looks like it works. But since it's a Daily job, the 'Next Run Date' increments to the following day. Even though I'm using sp_update_jobschedule to keep the active_start_date as the same day, it still increments. I've tried updating sysjobschedules directly, but get the same results.
Any thoughts much appreciated! Here's my code: USE msdb
--This is the part that goes in the job step --and increments the next_run_time if the condition is true.
If (Select count('x') from mytable (NoLock) Where PublicationDate > getdate()) < 1 BEGIN Declare @ActiveStartDate int Declare @ActiveStartTime int
Select @ActiveStartDate = active_start_date from msdb.dbo.sysjobschedules (NoLock) Where schedule_id = 61 Select @ActiveStartTime = active_start_time from msdb.dbo.sysjobschedules (NoLock) Where schedule_id = 61
I am trying to develop a sql statement that will create a recordset of the min (or max) values in x minute increments over a period of time.
e.g. over a period of 7 days, I have data that was collected in 1 minute intervals. I need to know the min (or max) value in each 10 minute interval over that same period of time.
hey all, i need to find the ratio of difference in 2 datetime variables and the difference of another 2 datetime vars. I figured the best way to do it is to convert the difference in both numerator and denominator to number of minutes.
I am runing from .NET application an SQL Query it normally return the rows in 10 seconds but time to time the application turn 2 or 3 minutes and nearlly crash (or crash)
I have a result that comes out in number of seconds, but need to see it converted to minutes and hours and seconds. Is there a convert function that would do this?
