Hi guys,
I have a large text that can have some ENTER character inside of it. The problem is that the text must be inserted into a txt file in a single row. So what I need is to find those ENTER character and replace them with a space so as to have the whole string in one row.
How can I build that formula in derivide column?
Thanks for your help
In 'MyTable' I have the following columns...
TotalNumber (numeric)
Weighting (numreric)
Hours (numeric)
Minutes (numeric)
Formula (nvarchar)
'Formula' column stores a literal string of the formula that may include some, none or all of the previous columns or be NULL.
Here are some examples of the actual strings it stores...
Weighting*Hours
Weighting+(TotalNumber*Hours)
Weighting*Hours)+(TotalNumber*2)
etc etc
All I want to do is create a UDF that will evaluate these strings as math formula and return the value depending on the values of the other columns in the row.
Bear in mind that there may not be a string formula at all for some rows, in which case the value of teh Hours column alone should be the result.
I can do this in vb using the 'Replace' function but am having difficulty in translating it over to T-SQL.
Here is the vb version i use in Ms Access...
getFormula(strDutyType As String, dblTotalNumber As Double, dblWeightingAs Double, dblHours As Double, dblMinutes As String, strFormula As Variant)
If IsNull(strFormula) Or strFormula = "" Then
getFormula = dblHours
Exit Function
End If
'Create the expression string with literal values
strExpression = Replace(strFormula, "TotalNumber", _
CStr(dblTotalNumber), , , vbTextCompare) _
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Weighting", _
CStr(dblPF), , ,vbTextCompare)
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Hours", _
CStr(dblHours), , , vbTextCompare)
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Minutes", _
CStr(dblMinutes), , , vbTextCompare)
'Evaluate the math of the literal expression
getFormula = Eval(strExpression)
-----------
Many Thanks
Im trying to build myself a report that recieves a values as worded text e.g
zero zero one zero zero
it would be nice if i write some clever bit of code that would convert this to

Has anyone come up against this before, or could point me in the direction of a tutorial, i would appreciate it
thank you in advance

I need to replace a portion of a url in a column as a result ofchanging servers. Is there a SELECT/REPLACE/UPDATE combination querythat can do this. The table has close to a thousand entries and wouldbe nice if a query can be set to do this. Tried the REPLACE examplein the BOOKS ONLINE but it creates syntax error, apparently because itdoes not like the characters in the url and/or wildcards. I don't needto replace the entire url, only the portion before ".com". Thanks inanticipation of your help.Pradip Sagdeo
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all I was wondering whether it was possible to remove or delete part of a String in a Field? Lets take for example I have:
- A Table called: Table_1
- A Field called: MyField
- MyField contains the value: Hello I am on the msdn forums
Is it possible to perform an UPDATE Query which deletes part of that sentence? If this was hard coded it would be rather simple but if the phrase was changing which would lead to the sentence also changing is it possible to do this?
Lets say I wanted to remove the part which said msdn forums. Then UPDATE the field again which should leave out the bit msdn forums.
Appreciate the responses, Onam.
So I have the following column named String in a table:
<key>Children</key><integer>2</integer>
This of course can vary for the different records. What's the best way to replace the 2 with the contents of my variable with TSQL?
declare @children int
set @children = 4
I want to do something like this:
SELECT <key>Children</key><integer>@children</integer>
I'm trying to replace a particular part of a row in a table with a new value.
The row is called "DataPath" and it has a lot of values like so:
mashOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
I want to run a query to replace the mash with our DFS namespace share name companysharesDepartments but keep everything else past the mash part of the original row.
I'm currently running this query, it says it is altering 30,000 rows, but it doesn't look like it's doing anything at all..
UPDATE dbo.Part
SET DataPath = REPLACE(DataPath,'company.localsharesDepartments','mash')
WHERE DataPath like 'mash\%'
So for example, it would change the mash above to
company.localsharesDepartmentsOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
Basically, I have a table with a column that stores mathematical formulas in string format. When my UDF is executed, it needs to select an appropriate formula from this table and evaluate it using values that are stored in local variables.
Look at the example below:
Suppose I have a string named @vcFormula that contains the following:"@dVar1 + @dVar2 / @dVar2"Now suppose I have a variable named @dVar1 that contains a value of 1.0, and variable @dVar2 contains a value of 2.5. I can use the REPLACE function to change my original string to look like this:"1.0 + 2.5 / 2.5"
Now I want to execute this string and find the numeric result, placing it in a variable named @dResult. The following works, but presents a problem:CREATE TABLE #Result (dResult decimal(20, 10))INSERT #Result EXEC('SELECT ' + @vcFormula)SELECT @dResult = dResult FROM #ResultThe problem with using this method comes from the fact that I need to be able to evaluate @vcFormula from within a user-defined function, but temporary tables are not allowed inside UDF's.
So I attempted to change the temporary table above into an instance of the TABLE data type. This didn't work either because EXEC cannot be used to populate instances of the TABLE data type. Then I came up with the bright idea to put the code above in a SP and call the SP from the UDF, but of course UDF's are not allowed to call SP's. Specifically, is there any way to execute a command/formula that is contained within a string other than by using EXEC?
Hi,I am trying to convert string entered in a field to uppercase usingits formula property.I know it can be done using trigger but still I want to use formulaproperty to achieve the same.Any help will be greatly appreciated.-Max
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a problem where I want to write a function to remove recurring characters from a string and replace them with a single same character.
For instance I have the string '12333345566689' and the result should be '12345689'. In Oracle I could do this with "regexp_replace('12333345566689', '(.)1+', '1')", but in T-SQL the only solution I could think of is something like this:
DECLARE @code NVARCHAR(255)
SET @code = '12333345566689';
SET @code = REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@Code, '1', '~1'), '1~', ''), '~1', '1');
and repeat this for 2 - 9. But I'm sure there is a more elegant version for this in SQL Server 2012.

I typed in the following: EXEC dbo.SalesByCategory @Seafood. I got the following box: Query attempt failed. Must declare the scalar variable "@Seafood". I am learning how to enter the string for the "SQL query programed in the subQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnQuery.Click" (see the code statements listed above). Please help and tell me what I missed and what I should put into the query string to get the information of the "Seafood" category out.

Hi, got a problem and can't figure this one out.
basically i've got a field containing a value '(14)(12)(33)(22)' and i want to compare it to a table containing those values in separate cells...
record 1 : (01)

and i want to compare this one field to those records to see whether that text string contains anything the table contains.
i've tried ContainsTable & IN but still can't figure this out.

I have a string of characters in my data flow and I need to add a derived column showing the # of times a certain character appears within that string. For example, my string in the data flow is:
NNNNNRJKSURNNNEJNNNN
Now I need to count the number of "N"s in that column. From the example above, I should get the integer 12, and that would be the value of my derived column. Any ideas?
I have a RPC which gives me multiple - single record rows like
Robert|K|Half|TX|1123823|1423904 -- This is one such record that i get in 1 Column
Now I need to split the above record into 6 Fields and populate in my local DB
I know i could use any .NET Language and accomplish this. But Iam limited to using SSIS/T-SQL Proc's
Any ideas / directions?
Hi all,
Am searching for a built-in function that retrives me the occurrence (counts) of a particular character inside a string.
For e.g. In the String 'SqlServer'. I want to find the no of the character 'e', which shud retrive the value as 2.
Can this be acheived through any function.

In the below procedure definition, i need to find a way parse the definition and get the list of places where the where clause is being used.
SELECT DISTINCT
FC.CASE_ID,
UPPER(FC.CASE_NUMBER) AS CASE_NUMBER,
UPPER(REPLACE(FC.CASE_SHORT_TITLE,CHAR(13)+CHAR(10),'')) AS CASE_SHORT_TITLE,
FC.CASE_STATUS_DESCR,
FC.CASE_TYP_DESC, FC.CASE_SUB_TYP_DESC,
[Code] ....
In the above query there are more than one places and the where clause may not have the same string the where clause it can be with a space between the "=" and the value in single quotes.
Result set should be in the below format:
TABLE NAME Column Name VALUE
CFG_ELEMENTS ELEMENT_NAME REPORT_CONSOLIDATEDCASES_CASERELATEDTYPID
I'm trying to find a specific string (a name) and replace it with another inside of a VARCHAR(7000) field. Unfortunately, there are names like Ted and Ken that I'm trying to replace. I would like to leave words like Broken, admitted, etc... intact.
UPDATEtbl
SETBody = LEFT(REPLACE(tbl.Body, pm.OldFirstName, p.FirstName), 7000)
FROM Table tbl
JOIN Person p ON p.PersonID = tbl.PersonID
JOIN PersonMap pm ON pm.PersonID = p.PersonID AND LEN(pm.OldFirstName) > 2
WHEREtbl.Body LIKE '%[^a-z]'+pm.OldFirstName+'[., ]%
'The problem I'm running into is that the '[, ]%' in the LIKE excludes any record that ends with the FirstName because it is requiring either a space, comma or period after the name. Is there some way to add an empty string to the list of acceptable characters as that would cover any scenario in the data? I would prefer not to add all characters except space, comma and period, but I guess I could do that.
Hi all can you help me please, I need the users to be able to enter in a date for a self generating report. Usually I use the @Enter_Date but I need them to be able to enter a start date and a end date
But when I run this query SQL gives me an error message Server: Msg 207, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Invalid column name 'Enter the Start Date'.
Server: Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'Enter the End Date'.
What should use in place of BETWEEN [Enter the Start Date] And [Enter the End Date]??
SELECT [Main Table].[IR Number], [Main Table].Date, [Main Table].Inspector, [Main Table].Area, [Main Table].Violation, [Main Table].[Violation Type], [Main Table].Loss, [Main Table].[Loss Type], [Main Table].Employee, [Main Table].Action, [Main Table].[Action Type], [Main Table].Notes
FROM [Main Table]
WHERE ((([Main Table].Date) Between [Enter the Start Date] And [Enter the End Date]))
ORDER BY [Main Table].[IR Number]
For inserting current date and time into the database, is it more efficient and performant and faster to do getDate() inside SQL Server and insert the value
OR
to do System.DateTime.Now in the application and then insert it in the table?
I figure even small differences would be magnified if there is moderate traffic, so every little bit helps.
Thanks.
I'm trying to execute a stored procedure within the case clause of select statement.
The stored procedure returns a table, and is pretty big and complex, and I don't particularly want to copy the whole thing over to work here. I'm looking for something more elegant.
@val1 and @val2 are passed in
CREATE TABLE #TEMP(
tempid INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
myint INT NOT NULL,
mybool BIT NOT NULL
)
INSERT INTO #TEMP (myint, mybool)
SELECT my_int_from_tbl,
CASE WHEN @val1 IN (SELECT val1 FROM (EXEC dbo.my_stored_procedure my_int_from_tbl, my_param)) THEN 1 ELSE 0
FROM dbo.tbl
WHERE tbl.val2 = @val2
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM #TEMP WHERE mybool = 1
If I have to, I can do a while loop and populate another temp table for every "my_int_from_tbl," but I don't really know the syntax for that.
Any suggestions?
Just wonder whether is there any indicator or system parameters that can indicate whether stored procedure A is executed inside query analyzer or executed inside application itself so that if execution is done inside query analyzer then i can block it from being executed/retrieve sensitive data from it?
What i'm want to do is to block someone executing stored procedure using query analyzer and retrieve its sensitive results.
Stored procedure A has been granted execution for public user but inside application, it will prompt access denied message if particular user has no rights to use system although knew public user name and password. Because there is second layer of user validation inside system application.
However inside query analyzer, there is no way control execution of stored procedure A it as user knew the public user name and password.
Looking forward for replies from expert here. Thanks in advance.
Note: Hope my explaination here clearly describe my current problems.
How do I replcae an 'enter' character with a space in a field? This extra spaces entered in the web form while populating the field is causing extra spaces in the field. What is the ASCII value for the 'enter' character? so that we can replace that with a space?

Hi,
I have two tables. Class & Faculty
"Class" table have column names ClassID, SchoolID and FacultyID(FacultyID column have just created therefore there is no data in the column)
"Faculty" table have column names FacultyID, SchoolID
In "class" table every SchoolID have 1 or 2 classID. Whereas in "Faculty" table every facultyID have more than 3 SchoolID.
Therefore when I update the table it only update the rows not entering new rows as per schoolID.
How can we add new rows in the class table according SchoolID,
Because I want to get data in the newly generated column FacultyID in "CLASS" table.
Thanks,

Hi i am trying to enter more than one value into my constructor field in my database, at the moment when the values are entered into the database through the front end, they appear in the database as seperate records however they have the same ID, the only thing that changes is are the data in the fields which i want in just one. This is the part of the stored procedure I am sure is causing this to happen;
IF @Access_Right_ID=8 or @Access_Right_ID=3 or @Access_Right_ID=9 BEGIN DECLARE @Delimiter char(1) SET @Delimiter = ',' DECLARE @CommaPos int SET @CommaPos = Charindex(@Delimiter,@Constructor_IDs) DECLARE @Remaining_Constructor_IDs VARCHAR(8000) SET @Remaining_Constructor_IDs = @Constructor_IDs DECLARE @Constructor_ID int WHILE (@CommaPos>=0) BEGIN
SET @CommaPos = Charindex(@Delimiter,@Remaining_Constructor_IDs) if @CommaPos >0 SET @Constructor_ID = ltrim(rtrim(Substring(@Remaining_Constructor_IDs,1,@CommaPos-1))) else SET @Constructor_ID = @Remaining_Constructor_IDs INSERT INTO tblUser_Constructor ( User_ID, Constructor_ID) VALUES (@User_ID, @Constructor_ID ) SET @Remaining_Constructor_IDs = SUBSTRING(@Remaining_Constructor_IDs,@CommaPos+1,LEN(@Remaining_Constructor_IDs)-@CommaPos) if @CommaPos=0 set @CommaPos = -1 END

I am using the Debugger in SQL Query Analyzer & want to set the value of a datetime parameter prior to executing the stored proc. The "Debug procedure" window allows me to specify the parameter values - but I can't get it to accept a datetime.

giving a use access to enter data into one database table.

This is a SSMS database, 2008.
I have been asked to write a query on SBO.It requires (among other) a reference to a budget, which does not exist anywhere now.It is a yearly budget that changes quarterly.I suppose I could add a table and update the no. each quarter - but will the history be kept?What would you recommend?Also, they require a quarterly comparison (all in the same report) is it possible for the user to enter a range of date (for sales data, for example) and also receive the data for that range only last year's?
