I have a client who needs to copy an existing sale. The problem isthe Sale is made up of three tables: Sale, SaleEquipment, SaleParts.Each sale can have multiple pieces of equipment with correspondingparts, or parts without equipment. My problem in copying is when I goto copy the parts, how do I get the NEW sale equipment ids updatedcorrectly on their corresponding parts?I can provide more information if necessary.Thank you!!Maria
I am having a header table and details table and I want to display first 2 records against each header from details, whatever number of records are there in details against each header.
Example : ======= Details table is as follows HeaderID DetailsID 1 1 1 2 1 3 2 4 3 5 3 6 3 7 3 8
SELECT H.TransDate, H.SupplierName, D.DetailsID FROM Header H, Details D WHERE H.HeaderID = D.DetailsID AND D.DetailsID IN (SELECT TOP 2 DetailsID FROM Details WHERE HeaderID = H.HeaderID)
As I am dealing with very huge data it is taking very long time to execute.
If you will I am trying to join a master invoice table to its detail records. The problem is I can't quite get the records to match correctly. There is a master record that has the net total of the invoice that corresponds to however many detail records for that invoice. I am attempting to get the records to line up in a query. I am having trouble because the key fields match the total up with each detail record. So for example in this record set below the 3825.75 value appears for each detail record so when I total the invoice column the figure is way too high. The detail has a 4462.54 and a -636.79 for a net of 3825.75. I tried to line the example up for better illustration. I copied it off a pdf and I am trying to replicate it programmatically.
Is there a way to see a list of duplicate records?? EG There is a field named "Invoice" in a table named "Orders" and I want to see only records where the same invoice shows more than once.
Hi i was wanting to know how to select a record in a gridview. I have a gridview with firsname and lastname. I currently have select command on it but don't want it. I want to be able to select first name or last name and have it take me to that record on the database.
I want to get some combined data from both tables, so right now I am joining them at the SessionStartTime column, which is a primary key in the first and a foreign key in the second table, something like this:
Code: SELECT DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime, DlTextDataTable.Channel01data FROM DlIndexTable LEFT JOIN DlTextDataTable ON DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime = DlTextDataTable.SessionStartTime WHERE DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime BETWEEN '2006-10-13 16:40:08.790' AND '2012-03-01 17:54:30.930' ORDER BY DlIndexTable.SessionStartTime, DlTextDataTable.ChTimestamp
The trouble is that this query, exactly as requested, gives me all the entries from the second table matching the first, while I really would like to pick just one row (preferably, the first chronologically - by ChTimestamp) so that the first column (SessionStartTime) has distinct entries in the resulting table. What would be the simplest way of doing that? Performance is not a big priority over simplicity since the first table could have only a few hundred rows (maybe a couple of thousand), while the second will be real tiny.
The earlier versions will still exist on the database, but the latest version will be 2.1.
There may be several different documents, with different DocumentID’s (e.g. DocumentID = “1”, DocumentID = “2”), etc., and each of these documents may have many versions.
I’m trying to write a query to display a list of documents showing ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MinorVersion, MajorVersion, Name… but the list should only display the latest version of each document.
So, if the database contained the following records:
ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MajorVersion, MinorVersion, Name 1,1,1,0,1,My Document 1,1,1,0,2,My Document 1,1,1,0,3,My Document 1,1,1,1,0,My Document 1,1,1,2,0,My Document 1,1,1,2,1,My Document 1,1,2,0,1,My Second Document 1,1,2,0,2,My Second Document 1,1,2,0,3,My Second Document
My query should return:
ClientID, ProjectID, DocumentID, MajorVersion, MinorVersion, Name 1,1,1,2,1,My Document 1,1,2,0,3,My Document
… where 2.1 is the latest version of Document 1 and 0.3 is the latest version of Document 2.how to do it.

I have a line chart which works great except when the x axis displays duplicate months. I have tried format codes of MM-YYYY and MMM and have the "numeric or time-scale values" checkbox checked. The data displays fine but the X axis in the case of the MMM format code displays as:
Sep Oct Oct Nov Nov
leaving the user to wonder where exactly does October and November start...
I've googled around but don't see off-hand what I am doing wrong. I am display 3 simultaneous lines if that matters...
Hello. I need to select a random record from TABLE. It might look easy with using RAND() function, but the tricky part is that ID's which are the PRIMARY KEY, were assigned as a random number. So right now ID's in that TABLE look some thing like that: -18745, 45809, 129, -5890023, 487910943, -209, etc... If any one have any ideas please respond. Thanks in advance.

I'ld like fill in this tables records inserting in the column id values I got in the one other table. In Oracle it is possible to do it using sourceTable.nextval where sourceTable is created as: CREATE SEQUENCE sourceTable; How can I do it in MS SQL or Transact-sql?
I'm no SQL whizz yet but I'm learning hard, and need to get some information from our DB rather urgently so have resorted to this fantastic forum, only I can't find what I'm looking for.
Basically I'm selecting a whole load of entries that have a (admission)date field after 2001, but I only want to return the Earliest (admission) for each (patients number).
Here is the script I have created to select all the data, but how can I limit the results to just the earliest (admission date) for each (patient).
SELECT Admission_Year, Admission_Month, Age_On_Admission, [Length of stay(continuing)], [Patient's Number], [Cons epis seq no], Sex, [Main Primary Pas Diag], [Date of Death], [Epi duration], [OP Code1], [Admission date], [Date of Death] - [Admission date] AS [days before death],[Intended Management] FROM dbo.Admissions WHERE (Admission_Year > 2001) AND (Age_On_Admission > '64') AND ([Intended Management] = 'inpatient') AND ([Date of Death] IS NULL)
I would really appreciate it if anyone can help with this, I'm sorry I can't really contribute to this forum as an SQL expert as .net is really my forte and I usually spend my time contributing to the asp.net forums. :)
I'm sure this is an easy problem but my brain is fried today...however how do I do the following:
I have a two column table. One is a key field where duplicates can arise and the other is a datetime field. So you might have some records looking like this:
OK, how do I get the top 1 of each key so that I get a subset of records looking like the following: 1231999-06-14 12:17:11.000 8901999-06-15 10:00:18.000
The situation is that we have resources (trucks) that perform shifts. Shifts consists of actions. A resource can perform multiple shifts.
For every resource we want to find the record that:
- Is 'younger' than the last realized action.
- Has actionkind pickup, deliver or clean
I have constructed a solution with CTE and row_number but I was curious if there would be other alternatives. The fact that I'm joining a CTE onto itself and subject the outcome to a partition makes me think there are sharper ways.
Note that the action id in the data below is also sorted but in practice this need not be the case. The sorting key is prevalent.
Hello everyone, I have a query problem.I'll put it like this. There is a 'publishers' table, and there is a'titles' table. Publishers publish titles (of course). Now I want to make aquery (in MS SQL Server) that would return the last title published by everyof the publishers. Quite clear situation. But I can't make it work.If I use inner join (which I should, because I need data from both tables)then I get a result showing all publishers and all titles. What I want toget is all publishers, and only their last title, so I don't have more thanone line for the same publisher, and this line should contain publisherdetails and last title details.I tried using DISTINCT, but it works on a whole resultant row rather then acolumn, and since rows are all distnict (because they also contain columnsfrom titles) this didn't help me.What I can do is (in my application) first get a list of publishers, andthen loop through them selecting only the last title belonging to eachpublisher. I want to see if there is a way to accomplish the same thing withan SQL query (or maybe a stored procedure, view, or whatever). Anything ispossible, as long as it stays within SQL server and doesn't rely on theclient application.Of course, both 'publishers' and 'titles' tables have a primary key('publisherID', and 'titleID'), and 'titles' has a 'publisherID' columnwhich relates titles with publishers.Help :)
Good Morning,I have a person table with personID. I have a personRate table withpersonID, rateID, and effectiveDate.I need to select fields from personRate, but I want the fields from theproper record.I need the one child record that has the most current date of the largestrateID.For example a person may have many rate records. I need the record that hasthe most current date of the largest rateID they have. Does that makesense?I am making a view that has data from both tables. I need to display themost current rate info.Any ideas? TIA ~ CK
I need to identify duplicate records in a table. TableA [ id, firstname, surname] Id like to see records that may be duplicates, meaning both firstname and surname are the same and would like to know how many times they appear in the table
Im not sure how to write this query, can someone help? Thanks in advance!
I have created the following SQL snippet that is a very simple mock-up illustrating the problem (I hope!) that I am facing:
-- create table if object_id('tempdb..#tmpdelnotes') is not null drop table #tmpdelnotes
create table #tmpdelnotes( DelNote int identity (1,1) , DelDate date not null, Item int not null, Customer int not null)
[code]...
What I need to retrieve is a unique list of item numbers with information about the latest (DelDate) delivery note. The "Clumsy workaround" works, but is not very pretty when doing multiple table joins. Is it really necessary to use a derived table for this kind of query? Window functions can only exist in the SELECT and ORDER BY clauses, which is understandable since the calculations take place (I would guess) after the aggregations in the HAVING clause.
I have inherited a query which currently returns multiple instances of each work order because of the joined tables. The code is here and I've detailed the criteria needed below but need the best way to accomplish this:
Each work order should only be returned once, and with the following additional criteria:
1. i.meter - this should return only the lowest number from that file.
2. sm.next_calendar_date - this should return only the most recent date out of those selected for the certificates on this piece of equipment
3. wh.meterstop as [Last Service Hours], wh.date_created as [Last Service] - this should return the number from wh.meterstop at the most recent wh.date_created for that piece of equipment.
Hi,I have a stored procedure that has to extract the child records forparticular parent records.The issue is that in some cases I do not want to extract all the childrecords only a certain number of them.Firstly I identify all the parent records that have the requird numberof child records and insert them into the result table.insert into t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails(BatchNumber,EntryRecordID,LN,AdditionalQualCritPassed)(select t1.BatchNumber,t1.EntryRecordID,t1.LN,t1.AdditionalQualCritPassedfrom(select BatchNumber,RecordType,EntryRecordID,LN,AdditionalQualCritPassedfrom t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails_Temp) as t1inner join(select BatchNumber,RecordType,EntryRecordID,Count(*) as AssignedNumbers,max(TotalNumbers) as TotalNumbersfrom t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails_Tempgroup by BatchNumber, RecordType, EntryRecordIDhaving count(*) = max(TotalNumbers)) as t2on t1.BatchNumber = t2.BatchNumberand t1.RecordType = t2.RecordTypeand t1.EntryRecordID = t2.EntryRecordID)then insert the remaining records into a temp table where the number ofrecords required does not equal the total number of child records, andthenloop through each record manipulating the ROWNUMBER to only selectthe number of child records needed.insert into @t_QualificationMismatchedAllocs([BatchNumber],[RecordType],[EntryRecordID],[AssignedNumbers],[TotalNumbers])(select BatchNumber,RecordType,EntryRecordID,Count(*) as AssignedNumbers,max(TotalNumbers) as TotalNumbersfrom t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails_Tempgroup by BatchNumber, RecordType, EntryRecordIDhaving count(*) <max(TotalNumbers))SELECT @QualificationMismatched_RowCnt = 1SELECT @MaxQualificationMismatched = (select count(*) from@t_QualificationMismatchedAllocs)while @QualificationMismatched_RowCnt <= @MaxQualificationMismatchedbegin--## Get Prize Draw to extract numbers forselect @RecordType = RecordType,@EntryRecordID = EntryRecordID,@AssignedNumbers = AssignedNumbers,@TotalNumbers = TotalNumbersfrom @t_QualificationMismatchedAllocswhere QualMismatchedAllocsRowNum = @QualificationMismatched_RowCntSET ROWCOUNT @TotalNumbersinsert into t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails(BatchNumber,EntryRecordID,LN,AdditionalQualCritPassed)(select BatchNumber,EntryRecordID,LN,AdditionalQualCritPassedfrom t_AuditQualifiedNumberExtractDetails_Tempwhere RecordType = @RecordTypeand EntryRecordID = @EntryRecordID)SET @QualificationMismatched_RowCnt =QualificationMismatched_RowCnt + 1SET ROWCOUNT 0endIs there a better methodology for doing this .....Is the use of a table variable here incorrect ?Should I be using a temporary table or indexed table if there are alarge number of parent records where the child records required doesnot match the total number of child records ?
This is a simple one, and I know that it has to be fairly common, but I just can't figure out an elegant way to do it. I have a table with the following fields: OrderID (FK, not unique) InstallationDate (Datetime) CreateDtTm (Datetime)
There is no PK or Unique ID on this table, though an combo of OrderID and CreateDtTm would ostensibly be a unique identifier.
For each OrderID, I need to pull the InstallationDate that was created most recently (based on CreateDtTm). Here's what I've got so far, and it works, but man is it ugly:
SELECT a.OrderID, InstallationDate
FROM ScheduleDateLog a
INNER JOIN
(SELECT OrderID, max(convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)) as TopRecord
FROM ScheduleDateLog GROUP BY OrderID) as b
ON convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)=b.TopRecord
This is part of my trigger on table T1. I am trying to check if the records inserted to T1 is available in myDB.dbo.myTable or not (destination table). If it is available rollback T1. It does not do that although I insert the same records twice.
-- duplicate record check SET @step = 'Duplicate record' IF EXISTS ( SELECT i.myID, i.Type FROM INSERTED i INNER JOIN myDB.dbo.myTable c ON i.myID = c.myID GROUP BY i.myID, i.Type HAVING (COUNT(*) > 1) AND (i.Type = 'In') ) BEGIN ROLLBACK transaction RAISERROR('Error: step: %s. rollback is done.', 16, 1, @step) Return END
Hi EverybodyThis Code duplicate the record in the database, can somebody help me understand why that happen.

In order to check that a new users ID does not already exist in the database I thought it would be a good idea to put the Insert into a Try Catch statement so that I can test for the duplicate record exception and inform the user accordingly. I was also trying to avoid querying the data base before executing the Insert.
The problem is what to actually test for. When the code throws the exception it is a big long string . .
"Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Users_2__51'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'Users'"
I just thought that there has to be something simplar to test for than comparing the exception to the above string.
Can anyone tell me of a better way of doing this ?
(by the way I am only using Web Matrix and MSDE in case it matters)
I am working on a web application that utilizes a sql server database. One of the tables is a large text file that is imported through a DTS package from a Unix server. For whatever reason, the Unix box dumps quite a few duplicate records in the nightly run and these are in turn pulled into the table. I need to get rid of these duplicates, but can't seem to get a workable solution. the query that is needed to get the records is:SELECT tblAppointments.PatientID, tblPTDEMO2.MRNumber, tblAppointments.PatientFirstName, tblAppointments.PatientLastName, tblAppointments.PatientDOB, tblAppointments.PatientSex, tblAppointments.NewPatient, tblAppointments.HomePhone, tblAppointments.WorkPhone, tblAppointments.Insurance1, tblPTDEMO2.Ins1CertNmbr, tblAppointments.Insurance2, tblPTDEMO2.Ins2CertNmbr, tblAppointments.Insurance3, tblPTDEMO2.Ins3CertNmbr, tblAppointments.ApptDate, tblAppointments.ApptTimeFROM tblAppointments CROSS JOIN tblPTDEMO2WHERE (tblAppointments.PatientID = tblPTDEMO2.MRNumber)AND tblAppointments.Insurance1 = 'MED'AND tblAppointments.ApptTypeID <> 'MTG'AND tblAppointments.ApptTypeID <> 'PNV'AND DateDiff("dd", ApptDate, GetDate()) = 0Order By tblAppointments.ApptDateMy first thought was to try to get a Select DISTINCT to work, but couldn't figure out how to do this with the query. My next thought was to try to set up constraints on the table, but, since there are duplicates, the DTS package fails. I assume there is a way to set up the transformations in a way to get this to work, but I'm not enough of an expert with SQL Server to figure this out on my own. I guess the other way to do this is to write some small script or application to do this, but I suspect there must be an easier way for those who know what they are doing. Any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
So I'm working on updating and normalizing an old database, and I have some duplicate records that I can't seem to get rid of. Every column is identical, right down to what is supposed to be the key. I can't right a delete query to just isolate one row, and I can't delete (or even udpate) any row in management studio. Any thoughts on how to remove the extra rows?
There is a field that's supposed to be unique, so I can write a simple query to get all of the problem rows. The only thing is that they come back in pairs.
