Getting Matching Records
Jun 14, 2006
Hi,
I have the following table:
***********************************************************************************************
Sheet --- Cycle
Init SC --- 89
Post NCOA --- 89
Post Supp --- 89
Revised Final State Counts --- 89
Revised Final State Counts --- 94
***********************************************************************************************
Since "Revised Final State Counts" appears in both cycles 89 & 94. How can I query the table so that I only get that 1 record?
Thanks

Hi All
I have a strange request that might not be possible based on the laws of relational databases but I thought I'd give it a try.
I have three tables which for simplicity I will call A, B and C. Table A contains my master records, Table B contains user details and the final table contains some extra data
In my initial search when joining A and B, I return 100 records. I then need to search in table C for these 100 records based on a criteria. the expected result should return all 100 rows for the ones that match and also the ones that do not match. The problem is that in Table C, not all the 100 IDs exist, so there will not be a corresponding record. Unfortunately, our users still want to see all 100 records in the output. Is this possible
As always any help or direction would be appreciated.

Hi,
This is a where clause I am using in a search.
WHERE (ADDRESS_STREET LIKE '%' + @Search + '%' )
I am trying to do a search which returns the most matching record. For example if I have a record with Denver as text . If I search for Denvr the spell error is intended , I will not get the result. How can I create a stored procedure to counter probable spelling errors and return matching results in a ranked order.
Thanks

There is something I don't understand. When I use join
SELECT r.CHECK_NUMBER, i.orig_file
from (AP_INVOICEDOCS i join AP_DETAIL_REG r on r.PAYABLE_ID= i.PAYABLE_ID)
I am getting 76 orig_file records
But when I do
SELECT r.CHECK_NUMBER, i.orig_file
from (AP_INVOICEDOCS i right outer join AP_DETAIL_REG r on r.PAYABLE_ID= i.PAYABLE_ID)
I am showing only 8 records under i.orig_file column and I am not sure why. What I need is to get all the AP_INVOICEDOCS in the matching orig_file records.

Here is a very basic question that I have.
I have two tables, A and B. Both have a customernumber and a batchid. This combination is unique in both tables.
How can I pull back the records from table A that do not have a corresponding combination in B?
I know I could find the ones that do match and then exclude them using an inner join and subquery, but is there a simpler way?
THANKS!

How to return only non matching left join records. Currently I am doing a traffic management database to learn sql.
I am checking for all parishes with no associated drivers. Currently I only have 2 of such.
The regular left join
select parish.name, driver.fname from parish left join driver on driver.parish=parish.name
Returns the all the names of the parishes and the first name of the associated drive, followed by the matches, however the two parishes with no matches have null for the first name.

I have an 'update' query that looks like this:
update wce_contact
set blank = 'missing'
where website in ('www.name1.co.uk','www.name2.co.uk','www.name3.co.uk')
I know this query will set 'blank' to missing when it matches the above websites. However if i wanted to set blank to 'missing' where mail1date is not null and mail2date is not null (keep going to mail18date not null) how exactly would i go about this?
I guess it would be a case of adding another bracket somewhere but im unsure?

I have a table (tblA) that records the RecordID, UserID andLastViewedDate (DateTime) of each record opened in tblB where RecordIDis the PK in tblB. I want to construct a query that groups all recordsin tblA by RecordID, filters by UserID and keeps only the most recent25 RecordIDs and deletes the rest.This gets me a recordset of all RecordIDs filtered by UserID in tblAbut I can't figure out how to sort it by LastViewedDate DESC and toeliminate those not in the Top25:SELECT RecordIDFROM dbo.tblAWHERE (UserID = 1234)GROUP BY RecordIDAny help is appreciated!lq

Hello,
I have a database with thousands of records that contain personal details of customers. Some of these records pertain to the same customer - however, they have been submitted by different people, so they differ slightly in detail.
I've been looking to see if any of the data mining tools provided by Business Intelligence Studio in SQL Server 2005 will enable me to achieve a high degree of accuracy in matching records that pertain to the same customer. From what I can see, these tools seem more suited to making general predictions based on large groupings rather than the kind of precise prediction I am looking for.
So I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me if there is any way I could use Business Intelligence Studio to match these 'duplicate' records together, or whether I will have to create a more SQL-based solution which attempts to match the customer records using SELECT statements and making assumptions about the data.
TIA,
Kweri

Problem:
I am working on a price comparison system which matches the best prices for a purchase (or an order) from exisiting purchase data.
The order is stored in multiple tables including order details (stores major items purchased: e.g., PC) and order sub-details (optional items purchased with the major items: e.g., speakers, backup device, webcam etc.).
There could be a number of major items in an order and each major item could have multiple related sub items. The other variables that affect the price include trade-ins if any, sales going on at the time of order, number of units etc.
Now, for any new configuration (major items/related sub items), the system should be able to return a list of previous purchases made with similar configurations, and similar variables (quatities, trade-ins etc). Even if the same model is not present, similar pcs by the same vendor should be considered. etc etc.
Questions:
Is this possible using Data mining?
If yes, which algorithm is recommended?
Also, can I assign/modify any kind of weights to certain variables (if same model: .6 ; if same model not available but pcs made by same manufacturer available: .3 ; by other manufacturers: .1)?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jojy

Hi Gurus!!!
I have two tables tabl_a and tbl_b
now tbl_a has some records which are not in tbl_b. I want to update tbl_b with records in tbl_a
eg:
tbl_a tbl_b
a a
b b
c c
d d
x
y
z
Now I want to update tbl_b with records 'x', 'y', 'z'. I want to keep the matching record just untouched.
Something similar.
How can I do that???
Thanks in advance!!!

I am doing some analysis on our customer base and their payment profiles. I have generated two profile strings, one for whether the balance of an account has gone up or down and one for the size of the balance in relation to the normal invoice amount for the customer. So (for example) the balance movement string will look like this:
UUUDUUUDUUUD-D00 Where U = Up, D = Down, - = no change and 0 = no change and no balance
I want to analyse these strings in two ways. The first is that I want to find customers with a similar pattern: in the example below the first and last patterns are the same, just one out of sync but should be considered the same
Movement Multiple CountRecords
UUUDUUUDUUUD1230123012301175
------------0000000000001163
UDUUUDUUUDUU3012301230121082
The second type of analysis is to find customers whose pattern has changed: in the examples above the patterns are repeated and therefore 'normal' in the records below the patterns have changed in that the first part does not match the second part.
Movement Multiple CountRecords
UUDUUUDUUUUU-----------07
UDUUUDUUUUUU------------7
good way to approach this without either a cursor or a hidden REBAR. The challenge as I see it is that I have to interrogate every string to find out if there is a repeating pattern and if so where it starts and how long it is (heuristic because some strings will start with a repeating pattern and then the pattern may change or deteriorate) and then compare the string for N groups of repeating characters to see if and when it changes and I can't think of an efficient method to do this in SQL because it is not a set based operation.

My Tables are in SQL 2005. I was thinking to read the Category records in a Data Reader and within the While Loop, call a SP to retrieve the matching records from Products Table. If matching records found, call System SP_Mail to send the E-mail. The drawback with that for every category records (Within While Loop) I need to call my SP to get Products Data. Will be OVERKILL? Ideally I would like extract my records with one call to a SP. Is there any way I can run a while loop inside the SP and extract Child Data based on Parent Record? Any Help or sample URL, Tutorial Page will be appreciated. Thanks

I have an Excel file which contains some data. I want to load that into a SQL server Table. Here are my conditions :
1. If the table doesn't have any matching records from the Excel file, then my DFT should load the data from that Excel to the Dest Table.
2. If the table has even one or more matching records, then the DFT should not process at all, instead I should send an email to the business stating that there are some matching records and hence the package is not process...ed.
P.S. If i use Lookup, I have two matching and non-matching output. which will process the non matching records into the table and matching can be redirected to any flat/Excel file. But i don't want to do this. I just want to lookup the Sql Server table and excel.
It'll be good if there is an additional option in the Lookup "Fail component on matching records".

Following is the query that I'm running:
create table a (id int, name varchar(10));
create table b(id int, sal int);
insert into a values(1,'John'),(1,'ken'),(2,'paul');
insert into b values(1,400),(1,500);
select *
from a
cross apply( select max(sal) as sal from b where b.id = a.id)b;
Below is the result for the same:
idname sal
1John500
1ken500
2paulNULL
Now I'm not sure why the record with ID 2 is coming using CROSS APPLY, shouldn't it be avoided in case of CROSS APPLY and only displayed when using OUTER APPLY.
One thing that I noticed was that if you remove the Aggregate function MAX then the record with ID 2 is not shown in the output. I'm running this query on SQL Server 2012.

Okay I've posted something like this in another area but it doesn't seem to be focused towards the right people. I need ya'll SQL experts!
I have a database table that has 5 columns: Time Status Message Source IP
The Status column has only two choices "up" or "down"
I'm looking for some kind of advanced query that will do the following:
I need the query in my application to pull the table and then match up IP, Status, and Message columns. It should only find One match and then once it has found a match it needs to recognize that one is an "up" status and one is a "down" status and then remove them from the database.
Does that make sense? Is it impossible?

My company is going to start a Cancel web site so customers can cancel their future orders by simply filling out a form. I was wondering what would be the best way to compare the cancel db to db that is used to store customer information and order information.
The cancel website will only hold the name, address, and Credit Card Number used. There will not be a customer/order number. The simple Credit Card to Credit Card search will be easy but I was more worried about comparing the rest of the information in case the Credit Card search fail. I was told the "standard" look up was to take the first 3 letters of the first name and the last 3 letters of the last name. If that comes up with more then one record, take that set and see if the zip code matches up and/or part of the street address matches up (counting we do not have very reliable people inputting the information into the system is not going to help this search).
Anyway, any suggestions on comparing the data would be great.
Thanks ahead of time

I have a table which contains 4 columns each of which are NULL or contain a 6 digit code.
Here is a sample of the table content:
COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4
----- ----- ----- -----
452359 NULL NULL 347406
NULL NULL 347406 347406
592319 NULL 347406 347406
592319 150009 347406 347406
592319 150010 347406 347406
Through out the table any number of the columns can be null.
I wish to remove rows from this table where the columns values are contained in another row i.e Row 2 above is contained within row 3. Similarly, row 3 is contained within row 4.
So, the only rows I want from the sample data above are rows 1, 4 and 5.
I hope I have explained my query adequately, and any help would be great appreciated. (Before I go mad...!)
Regards,
Katherine

Hi everyone. I'm developing a web search engine using asp and SQL Server 2000. I need to return records that matches with a string entered by users. In example, suppose my database to have this structure and it's filled like this:
ID NAME KEYWORDS
--- ------- -----------
AA025 NAME1 attached, atic, common, business, hotels
AA026 NAME2 headache, medicin, aspirins, heat, health
AA027 NAME3 at, services, music, electronics
suppose that user enters 'at'. By now, i'm using this pattern '%<input_text>%'. So in this example, pattern would be '%at%'. As i remarked in the fields above, the three fields matches, and that's not what i'm looking for. I want that the result of that query be just the last field, with 'AA027' ID.
Thanks in advance guys.
Cheers.

What can be done with Sql Server for this problem?
In this query:
select A, B, C
from
(select A, B, C from table1) as G1,
(select A, B, C from table2) as G2
where G1.A = G2.A
and G1.B = G2.B
and G1.C = G2.C
a record in table1 can be matched with more than one record in table2, and I don't have any other field in the tables that helps me link one G1 record to a specific G2 record.
What can I do to match each G1 record to only one (if any) G2 record (if there are two records in table2 which are identical, I want the query to choose one of them and leave the other one unmatched)?
Another question: is there a way to count records and attribute them a unique number? What is an index?
Thanks in advance

I have a piece of code that uses LIKE matching to check for the existence of a set of characters in a string as follows
SELECT a.Name, a.Market
FROM Table a
Where a.Name LIKE 'DAVIEL%'
I have the following sample data in a look-up table
AddID Name_Full
100 DAVIEL
101 DAVIEL
102 DAVIELT
103 DAVIELT
104 DAVIELT
105 DAVIEL
When I write the above query, I want to exclude the AddIDs that have a Name_Full of DAVIELT. In the Name_Full column the only difference between the two strings is the "T" in DAVIELT.
Please note that it has to use a LIKE statement. The code is already written that way and I do not have control over it.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Hello friends,
We are in initial phase of designing an application whose primary purpose is to match a list of loan defaulters with bank's customer database.
Let me make the picture more clearer to you,
There is a list of defaulters which contains about 1500000 names (Primary names and Aliases e.t.c), related to a person.
On the other hand there is database which contains bank's customer's (about 20, 00000 records) data.
We will have to run batch a scan for name matching against defaulters list to the current customer base of bank to check if any of existing customer is in defaulter's list.
This whole exercise of name matching should be finished in 4 to 5 hours (as required by user/client).
How can I optimize my data base design or processing logic to achieve this goal,
Should I use full text query or I should load data related to names in memory than carry out some logic for name match. These are two my primary thoughts.

I'm on SQL Server 2005.
I have 2 tables called Customer & CustomerArchive. Both Tables have the same Column names and Datatypes etc.
CustomerID Address Postcode
1 10 Alcove Street 4000
50 21 Spring Street 4032
33 5 Terrace Place 4010
What I need to do is compare each column except for the CustomerID to see if it is the same!
In other words, I need to compare Address in the Customer Table with Address in the CustomerArchive Table.
I have to do this with all columns (12) of them between the 2 Tables.
Is there a efficient & smart way to do this aprt from the obvious way of joing the 2 Tables via the CustomerID and performing a Customer.Address <> CustomerArchive.Address
Customer.PostCode <> CustomerArchive.PostCode
etc etc etc!

Hi folks
I have a section in my networking site where people can write things about themselves, such as likes dislikes, hobbies etc for their profile.
I am looking to provide a very basic profile matching service, and have done a bit of searching to find out what the best way to approach this feature is. I have looked at using the sql LIKE clause, but since the profile information can be any length, there seem to be too many variables to account for. I have also looked at identifying keywords in profile blurbs to do the matching too, but I am struggling to see how this could be done with relative ease.
My reason for posting this is simply to get some experienced knowledge about where to start the problem, of even some resources to look at that I may not have found yet.
If anyone could give me some advice on where to start i would be very grateful
I am develping in vb, with an sql server 2005 back-end

A column in my database contains phrases such as "Extreme Golf: The Showdown" or "Welcome to Happy Land". I need to write a search engine so that users could type in phrases such as "Golf Extreme Showdown" or "Happy Land" and the correct, or closest matched results will be returned. I don't need variations of words, just phrase keyword match based search. I know I could do this by using multiple LIKE %% statements OR'd together, but this would be too performance intensive. So, I have heard I should use charindex somehow to achieve this in a stored procedeure. Does anyone have any clue how to solve this problem? Thanks!
