Help Needed On Numbering
Sep 19, 2007
Hi All,
I've upsized my database from access to SQL server, now im very new to SQL etc and i've been reding up on sqential numbering etc and my mind is buzzing with ideas. This is my problem.
I have a table and a colum called PIR ID this colum needs to start the numbering at 372 and increment by 1 each time. Now initially this was o.k by using identify. However it's a problem when 2 users open the form in access they are given the same number.
Now my though on this was to initially have a seperate table called new PIRID and hold the next bumber in there, so that a new number is taken from the list and entered into the record on save ( does that make sense) now the code i've got up to so far is that i've created the table and i get stuck from there.
Can anyone help me with the code of format of code i'm meant to be using, i'm under the understanding that to perform this funtion i may have to use a trigger of some sort.
Thanks In advance
Carol

Hello,
I am having trouble getting the results I am looking for from this query:
select ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY TransTime, DriverNo ORDER BY TransTime) as CustCount
, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY Left(ToName,2), TransTime, DriverNo ORDER BY TransTime) As DelCount
, DriverNo
, Convert(VarChar(8), TransTime, 108) As TransTime
, Left(ToName,2) As AirPortCode
from transactions
The results I am trying to get would be like this:
CustCount DelCount DriverNo TransTime AirPortCode
-------------------- -------------------- -------- --------- -----------
1 1 042000 04:00:00 NW
1 2 042000 04:00:00 NW
1 1 042000 06:51:00 AA
1 1 042000 08:45:00 NW
1 1 042000 08:52:00 NW
1 1 042000 10:30:00 NW
1 1 042000 10:45:00 NW
2 1 042000 10:45:00 AA
1 1 042000 11:30:00 NW
1 2 042000 11:30:00 NW
But the closest I have gotten is:
CustCount DelCount DriverNo TransTime AirPortCode
-------------------- -------------------- -------- --------- -----------
1 1 042000 04:00:00 NW
2 2 042000 04:00:00 NW
1 1 042000 06:51:00 AA
1 1 042000 08:45:00 NW
1 1 042000 08:52:00 NW
1 1 042000 10:30:00 NW
1 1 042000 10:45:00 NW
2 1 042000 10:45:00 AA
1 1 042000 11:30:00 NW
2 2 042000 11:30:00 NW
The CustCount field should read 1 if there is only one unique AirPortCode during the TransTime with the specific DriverNo, but the query is counting both rows during that transtime. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hello,For analyses and reporting I would like to add a 'ranking' to atable/view.Example:Using the 'order by desc' clause in query I get a list of Customersordered by Turnover (descending). I would like to add that rankingnumbers (same as recordnumbers) in the query. I would like to have thefollowing result:Cust_nr Cust_Name Turnover_2004 Ranking002234 Bayer 139.000 1003456 Rentokill 123.456 2001231 Air France 105.000 3etc.When the 'ranking' is part of the query/table I can use this ranking inan other query.Important: This questions is not about making an (empty) table structurefor filling in by an application and generating a new unique number eachtime a record is added.I hope you can help me.Thanks,Hans*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Hi,I'm
trying to insert records from one table into another table. The
destination table has a ROWID field which cannot be an identity key,
but needs to 'act like' an identity key and have its value populated
with (Max(ROWID) + 1) for each row added to the table.To my
thinking, simply using (Max(ROWID) + 1) in my SELECT statement will not
work as it will only be evaluated once so if I am adding 1000 records
and Max(ROWID) is 1234, all 1000 entries will end up having a ROWID of
1235.Is there a way to accomplish this?Thanks

I know its a simple question. But couldnt find a solution of my own.
My SQL 2005 table has 2 fields, namely - id (primary key), comments(varchar).
I want to automatically increment the value of 'id', starting from 1000.
Is there any DataType which i can specify at the time of table designing, so that the value of the id
field will be automatically incremented, upon inserting each new record.
Im using SQL 2005 Express Edition. Can anyone tell, how to do that ?
Thanks

Hello all,
I'm trying to number rows in a resultset by a grouping.
e.g. if my data looks like this:
personname persondata
----------- -----------------
person1 data
person1 more data
person1 other data
person2 stuff
person2 more stuff
person2 even more stuff
person2 lots of stuff
person2 last bit of stuff
person3 info
person3 more info
I want it to return this, with x as a sub-numbered value (like an identity for each grouping):
x personname persondata
-- ----------- -----------------
1 person1 data
2 person1 more data
3 person1 other data
1 person2 stuff
2 person2 more stuff
3 person2 even more stuff
4 person2 lots of stuff
5 person2 last bit of stuff
1 person3 info
2 person3 more info
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

Hi!
I'm trying to get a MSSQL view to return some data marked with a week number based on a date (which is present on every row in the source table). Since I reside in Denmark, I would like the numbering to follow the rule '1. week of a year is the first week with a least 4 days in it'. My instance of MSSQL however is convinced that the rule '1. week starts 1. January'.
Are there any ways to configure my way out of this problem??
Examples:
This year 1. and 2. January is returned as week=1, 3. January is returned as week 2.
I would like 1. and 2. to be week=53 and 3. to be week=1.
Thanx in advance! :)

I've created a sproc that will provide a recordset for an Access report via a pass-thru query. The report is a production schedule.
Some of the runs on the schedule have a note associated with them. I need
to be able to number these notes, so that they can be displayed in the report
bibliography style. When I populate the data in the sproc, if the "notes"
field in my table contains any data I display a 1, else it's a 0
Like:
SELECT NOTE_FLAG = CASE WHEN ISNULL(SCHED_NOTE,'')<>'',1,0
FROM MASTER_SCHEDULE
The problem is, I really need to display sequential numbers instead of 1's
If I create a base set with this:
CREATE TABLE #TMPRST (
RECID INTEGER,
PRODUCT VARCHAR(10),
QTY FLOAT,
NOTE_FLAG INTEGER)
INSERT INTO #TMPRST
SELECT 1, 'ABC123', 4, 0
UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 'DEF123', 5, 1
UNION ALL
SELECT 5, 'ABC456', 12, 0
UNION ALL
SELECT 13, 'PQR789', 10, 1
How do I go back and convert the note_flag column to read
... 0
... 1
... 0
... 2

We're performing an insert and the column that has identity is numbering the records without a problem, but it's assigning duplicate ID's on the records. Does Autoincrement or Autonumbering need to be turned on somewhere?

I don't think this is possible, but I promised my users I would bring this question to the forum. The users want to have the page numbering change per each group on the report. The report is large, and there are up to 5 pages in each group. I have a large List Control surrounding the many tables on my report that controls the over all report grouping. Everything looks great and the users are pleased.
But when I try to add the Global!PageNumber and Global!TotalPages to the bottom of the List Control I get the error that the Globals properties can only be used in the Page Header and Page Footer section.
Is there any way around this? I could not think of a way around it, but I am not an expert in Reporting Services by any means.
Thank you,
T.J.

Hi,
I've a column say page#. This has by default 4 pages which I'm numbering as 1,2,3,4. I'll be adding pages to this table and the number needs to start from 5 (since 4 pages are already present)
Page# is not an identity column. I want to know if theres a function which can do the trick.
Thanks for your help!

HI
Has anyone figured out how to reset the page numbers after a grouping and have it display in the format €˜Page X of Y€™? I can get it to reset the page number for each group and display €˜Page X€™ but it€™s the €˜of Y€™ part that is a problem.
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
The problem is about numbering groups. I'm trying to display data like this-
1. U.S
1.1 San Francisco
1.1.1 employee1
1.1.2 employee2
1.2 Dallas
1.2.1 employee3
2. UK
2.1 London
2.1.1 employee4
I've tried using RunningValue(1, Sum, "group_name") but it gives erroneous results. I'm using 3 lists, one at each group level. The outermost list (1st list) is grouped by "country" (group_1), 2nd one is grouped by city (group_2) and the innermost (3rd one) by employee name (group_3).
I can't figure whats wrong. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for any help/tricks on creating an item numbering system in a MSSQL database. The object is to number the items in a cart from 1 to whatever and have the ability for the user to change that sequence. The client wants the ability to order the items any way they choose by changing the sequence number. This process would require.
1. Starting at one (1) for the first item in the cart and incrementing from there.2. If I have 10 items and I change item 3 to 5, items 4 and 5 have to increment down by one and 6-10 would stay the same. (and vise versa moving item 3 to item 1)3. If I have 10 items and I delete item 4, 5-10 must incremet down by one.
On 1 my first though in adding items is doing a select count to see if any items exist in the cart. If they don't assign the number one. if it does do a max on the sequence column and increment by one.
on 3 I would simply delete the item and do an update on all items with seq# > then the deleted Seq#
on 2 I'm not sure yet.
Am I on the right track and are there any tricks to doing this? Any help would be appreciated. This would all be done in stored procedures.

I am having trouble making this DAX formula work. This is my test data including the column "rank" which is a row_number with partition by generated using T-SQL. (The nature of the data is that the "Measure" will always increase cumulatively per month and I want the maximum "measure" to equal a rank of 1).What I need is a second RANK column which updates dynamically so that if I select just some of the Months, they will rank from 1 +.

Hi I have a database that has a table. I have a page that you can enter info into text boxes and insert into the database table. They are supposed to be entered in numerical order. 1,2,3, etc. I have a primary key that is an integer for this function but for some reason after entering a certain amount of records the number id be out of order. So for instance if I enter 10 records they will all be there but some may be out of order. 7 will be before 6 or something of that nature. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this.

Friends,
I am using SSRS (Sql server reporting services) for one of my report related to EIS-MIS.
i want group wise page numbering and also display the no. of pages for that particular group.
e.g suppose group 1 has 5 pages then it should display
page no. 1 /5, 2/5,3/5,4/5, 5/5. now suppose group change then it shold display 1/4 like this
I have already implemented groupwise page numbering using then custom code and i have call that function from the header portion of the report.
now the question is how can i display the total no. of pages in particular group?
For that i have add one count column in query itself but as we know we can't use field value in header and footer portion and also we can't use global variables in data portion.
So kindly guide me
Thanks,
Manoj Patel

Hi!
I've posted a feedback with Microsoft to see if we can get them to fix the issue described below, but so far no one from Microsoft has commented to let us know what they're doing about this problem! I'm posting this here to see if maybe we can get more people to rate this feedback or chime in on what a pain it is! Please feel free to add your own comments or how you had to work around this issue and whether or not you think this is something Microsoft should be addressing NOW.
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=311679
Provide Individual Page Numbering per Group and Total Pages per Group
Currently in a Reporting Services report, you can't readily reset the page number for each group in a table, nor can you display the total number of pages per group. For example, if I'm printing invoices and each invoice is a separate group, I'd like to be able to print "Page 1 of 5" , "Page 2 of 5" etc. for the first invoice, then "Page 1 of 3" when the next invoice begins, and so on. This was easy in Crystal Reports. I realize that Crystal Reports has a two-pass process that enables that kind of pagination. However, this is REALLY important functionality that's just missing from Reporting Services and I'm hoping you'll provide it REALLY SOON! Yeah, I know there are work-arounds if you can know exactly how many rows of information there are on each page. But gosh! That's not practical, especially if you have second level groups inside the main group or text blocks in rows that can 'grow' to more than one line. I've read a couple of work-arounds, but none of them works correctly and consistently when more than one user is running the same report or when you print the report while you're looking at it on the screen. I still may need access to the overall report page number and the overall total number of pages, so don't get rid of that. It's just that if you're doing this already for the entire report, I don't see why you can't do it per group! Lots of people have been asking for this for years, and I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented.
I've read a few articles on this topic, but no one has come up with a decent work around. My theory is that Microsoft should be addressing this immediately. This is major functionality that's just plain missing from SSRS and should have been there from the start. If anyone from Microsoft can let us know what's going on with this issue or if anyone would like for me to clarify this further, feel free to let me know.
Thanks!
Karen
