Flattening A Dataset
Jul 5, 2007
Hello,
I have a dataset that looks like this:
event_id
answer_id
answer
10001
20500
Red
10001
20501
Yes
10001
20502
No
I want to be able to turn this into a single row, so that my report output looks as follows:
event_id
answer_20500
answer_20501
answer_20502
10001
Red
Yes
No
10002 Blue Maybe No
Can SSRS do this kind of transformation? For reasons not worth going into here, I'd rather not do this in SQL (although I CAN if I had to).
Thanks,
Michael

Hi All,
I have a database that stores some data from two questionnaires. Table One has been created in a fairly straightforward manner. It has the following fields:
ID, variable1, variable2, variable3, ..., variablen
Table Two is a bit more complicated. I'm guessing whoever created it wanted to do things a bit more "efficiently" and it has the following fields.
ID, variable, response.
If I wanted to, say, extract variables 2, 3 and 5 from Table One I could write:
SELECT ID, variable2, variable3, variable 5 FROM TableOne
I don't know how to do a similar thing with Table 2 using only one statement. ie, I can only think of doing:
SELECT ID, Response FROM Table2 WHERE variable = 2
SELECT ID, Response FROM Table2 WHERE variable = 3
SELECT ID, Response FROM Table2 WHERE variable = 5
This isn't much good to me as I need the data from Table Two in a single table. Once I've done that, I need to join it to Table One. Ordinarily I'd know how to do that, but I don't know how to do given the format of Table Two.
So... I was wondering if anyone could offer advice on how to "flatten" Table Two?
I would like to be able to do something like:
SELECT t1.ID, t1.variable1, t1.variable2, t2.variable6, t2.variable7
FROM TableOne t1 JOIN TableTwo t2 ON t1.ID = t2.ID
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hey all,
I have two different databases that store the same info. Sometimes the data doesn't match, and I have been asked to come up with a query to find the decrepencies.
That data is an employees payrates for StraightTime OverTime and Double time. The problem is they store the data differently.
System 1 stores it
EmployeeID - Name - StraightTime - OverTime - Doubletime
System 2 Stores it
EmployeeTable:
EmployeeID - Name
RateTable
EmployeeID - Rate - RateType
Id like to return the data in a single row:
EmployeeID - Name - System1StraightTime - System2StraightTime- System1OverTime - System2OverTime ...
I tried Left Joining the System2.RateTable 3x, but it will only return the first join's records, and then the second and third join's records appear ONLY if the the record if also wrong with the first joins rows.
Is there a way to do this in SQL, of do I need to bit the bullet, and run the query 3x, and then assemble them in code with a loop?
Thanks

We have a table with 500+ columns. The data is non-normalized, i.e. there are four groups of fields for for "people", followed by data that applies to all people in the row (a "household").For ad-hoc queries, and because I wanted to index columns within each person (person 1's age, person 2's age, etc.), I used UNION:
SELECT P1Firstname AS FirstName, P1LastName as LastName, P1birthday AS birthday, HouseholdIncome, HouseholdNumber of Children, <other "household" columns>
UNION
SELECT P2Firstname AS FirstName, P2LastName as LastName, P2birthday AS birthday, HouseholdIncome, HouseholdNumber of Children, <other "household" columns>
I could get at least the P1... P2... P3... columns with PIVOT, but then I believe I'd have to JOIN back to the row anyway for the "household" columns. Performance of UNION good, but another person here chose to use PIVOT instead.I can' find any articles on PIVOT vs. UNION for "de-flattening".

I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.

I have a small number of rows in a dataset, Table 1. There is a CLOB on a large dataset, Table 2. They join on a PK. I would like to retrieve this CLOB and add it to the data flow for Table1. In short I want to emulate the following:
Table 1: Small table without CLOB, 10 rows.
Table 2: Large table with CLOB, 10,000,000 rows
select CLOB
from table2
where pk = (select pk from table1)
I want this to return the CLOBs for the small number of rows in Table 1. The PK is indexed obviously so it should be a fast look up.
Table 1 and Table 2 live on different Oracle databases. How do I perform this operation efficiently in SSIS? It seems the Lookup and Merge Join wont do this.

Hi,
I have a stored procedure attached below. It returns 2 rows in the SQL Management studio when I execute MyStorProc 0,28. But in my program which uses ADOHelper, it returns a dataset with tables.count=0.
if I comment out the line --If @Status = 0 then it returns the rows. Obviously it does not stop in
if @Status=0 even if I pass @status=0. What am I doing wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[MyStorProc]
(
@Status smallint,
@RowCount int = NULL,
@FacilityId numeric(10,0) = NULL,
@QueueID numeric (10,0)= NULL,
@VendorId numeric(10, 0) = NULL
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL OFF
If @Status = 0
BEGIN
SELECT ......
END
If @Status = 1
BEGIN
SELECT......
END

Hi,
I have two datasets in my report, D1 and D2.
D1 is a list of classes with classid and title
D2 is a list of data. each row in D2 has a classid. D2 may or may not have all the classids in D1. all classids in D2 must be in D1.
I want to show fields in D2 and group the data with classids in D1 and show every group as a seperate table. If no data in D2 is available for a classid, It shows a empty table.
Is there any way to do this in RS2005?

Using this IIF statement:
=CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!Released_DT.Value = Fields!Date2.Value, Fields!Name.Value,
Nothing))
Released_DT = a date - 09/03/2015 or 09/02/2015
Date2 = returns another date value in this case 09/03/2015
What I'm trying to do is: count distinct number of people (Fields!Name.Value) if the Relased_DT = Date2.My IIF statement is returning a zero value.

I want that statTime and endTime are select by the user via a calendar for example...
now idIndicator and idEq was result of an other dataSet from a xml datasource...
But I don't how integrate dynamically... I try to enter a parameter via the param tab, and create and expression :
=First(Fields!idEq.Value, "EquipmentDataSet")

Hi experts,
I'm not sure my design is normal or not. Please give me some advice.
I've a dataset and query by a field name 'companyid'.
select * from companyid where companyid = @icompany which @icompany is a input field.
if user select all, i'll send 0 to @icompany then I need to select all records.
question 1. How can I get all records? (i think about this query select * from companyid <> 0)
if user select for example companyid = 1, i'll send 1 to @icompany and the query work fine.
question 2. How can I change the query to adopt this 2 condition?
Thanks a lot,
Jeff

I am faced with a common situation but there is a little twist that makes it unique and has me stumped. Hopefully someone can point me to a solution or give me enough guidance to figure it out.
Here is the situation, I am loading an XML file into a Dataset and need to update SQL tables from that Dataset but the tables are slightly different than in the DataSet. I am using C#, asp.net 2.0, visual studio 2005 and sql server 2005.
When I loaded the XML into the Dataset, the Dataset contained 19 tables. I individually loaded each table from the Dataset and determined from that which tables I needed and didn't need as well as determinined which fields I needed or not. I used this information to create my SQL tables.
Briefly, when creating the SQL tables, I used the dataset table name as the SQL table name and used the same column names as well. the only difference from the Dataset tables and SQL tables is 1 column has a different name (or to be more specific, a column exists in the datset that does not exist in the sql table and a column exists in the SQL table that does not exist in the dataset table). Also, some tables in the dataset do not exist in the sql Database.
I know that I can spin through each row of the tables I need in the Dataset and create an insert command from the row data and insert that into the SQL table but I have 11 tables to do that with. I would like to take advantage of ADO.NET and push the datset information into sql data but I am confused on how to do this.
I am confused because not all tables in the dataset are represented in the sql database and though the tablenames and most of the columns have the same name, it is not an exact fit.
Can anyone point me to a solution or give me a good game plan that I can search on to help me load my dataset info to a sql DB.
I appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks.

Hey,
I am using the following stored procedure, but as it is now it returns 2 datasets. I need it to return only 1.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.Test2
(
@Location varchar(250),
@FromDate datetime,
@ToDate datetime
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
CREATE TABLE #Temp1 (themonth varchar(12), theyear varchar(12), averagedaystofilltotal float, averagefillratetotal float,
delaytimetotal float, responsetimelagtotal float)
INSERT INTO #Temp1(themonth, theyear, averagedaystofilltotal, averagefillratetotal, delaytimetotal, responsetimelagtotal)
EXEC rptStatsGraphicalYEARoverYear @Location, @FromDate, @ToDate
Create table #Temp2(averagedaystofilltarget float, averagefillratetarget float, responsetimelagtarget float)
INSERT INTO #Temp2(averagedaystofilltarget, averagefillratetarget, responsetimelagtarget)
EXEC Test1
SELECT * FROM #Temp1
Select * from #Temp2
drop table #Temp1
drop table #Temp2
Would anyone have any suggestions on how to modify this procedure so that it returns only one dataset, but yet still keeps the data seperated? Or is this even possible?
Thanks

I have come into a company where my predesessor used a TON of differently named RDS files to connect to the same SQL Server Database; the same connection string, login id, etc. My suspicion is that he thought that datasources were the same as datasets and created one for each. I can't find a difference in any of them; except their name.
Is there any good reason to do this?
Should they all have been changed to be something generic like "ConnectTo{servername}Production.RDS (instead of {Report Name}.RDS)??? What is the easyiest way to change them all to the same RDS file?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

I have a dataset that uses generated stored procedures to do its select, insert, update, delete. I am inserting a row to that dataset, and after the update, using the ID of newly created row. This worked just fine until I added triggers to some of the tables on my DB, and now, when I insert a row, the row's ID is not available after the update (it's 0) Any idea what happened / what I have to do to fix this? Thnx!
