I have a table defined as (int Row, int Column, money Data); as it were a matrix.
Which is the more efficient way of retrieving a result set with the following form?
Column1 Column2 Column3
---------- ----------- ----------
Data11 Data12 Data13
Data21 Data22 Data23
Data31 Data32 Data33

Thanks a lot in advance.
Hello!
I have 2 tables, one that contains a set of codes and their definitions, and another where each record has a field that contains several of these codes separated by commas:
Tab1
SubCode | Definition
---------------
S100 | Def of S100
S101 | Def of S101
S102 | Def of S102
Tab2
DepID | Purpcode |SubCodes
-----------------------------
1 | P100 | S100,S101,S102
1 | P101 | S100, S101
2 | P101 | S100,S102
I'm trying to create a query against Tab1 so that it retrieves a recordset of Subcodes and definitions based on the contents of the Subcodes field for a record in Tab2. I've tried this using a subquery, as follows:
SELECT SubCode ,Definition
FROM Tab1
WHERE SubjectCode IN
(SELECT CHAR(39) + REPLACE(SubjectCodes, CHAR(44), CHAR(39 + CHAR(44)+ CHAR(39)) + CHAR(39)
FROM Tab2
WHERE DepID = 1 AND PurposeCode = 'P101')
The subquery will return: 'S100','S101' and I expect the final recordset to be:
SubCode | Definition
---------------
S100 | Def of S100
S101 | Def of S101
However, it's not returning any records. If I execute the subquery separately and then plug its results into the main query e.g.
SELECT SubCode ,Definition
FROM Tab1
WHERE SubjectCode IN ('S100','S101')
it returns the expected recordset. Does anyone have any pointers? It's driving me nuts..
Cheers

I have two dbs with the same table names and fields but different data. My connection is right, as well as my query.
How come that my program can't access the data from one table while the there's no problem with the another one? My recordset is empty even the record I'm searching for exists. It's rs.recordcount is -1. Is that database corrupted?
I am using ADODB.Recordset to retrieve the records from an MS Access database. The table has 11450 records and the recordset shows this number as the recordcount too. But when I try to fetch the records in a While loop using EOF as the check, I am able fetch only 4000 or so records. No error occurs and no exception is thrown. Control just comes out of the function. Why could this be happening?
Does Recordset have some limit on the number of records for Jet 4.0 provider?
Any help is appreciated.
Does anyone know if the following scenario is possible in SSRS 2005?
I have a dataset as:
Year EndofYearValue
2007 55
2008 28
2009 33
2010 65
My aim is to have a Matrix as:
2007 2008 2009 2010
Value at Start of Year 55 28 33
Value at End of Year 55 28 33 65
I have built my matrix with a group on columns for Year and the rows have a static group
The end of year value is easy to show but how do I refer to a dataset value for the previous group value?
This sounds so simple, I must be missing something obvious! I was hoping the previous() function was the answer but this is not supported in a matrix?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Hello,
I have a matrix which lets you drill-down by company divisions and then branches within those divisions, and the data columns show how many employees are required for each divisionranch, and how many they actually have. For example, Division 1 might have 9 / 9 for Actual / Required, but when you drill it down to Branches A and B, they may have 5 / 4 and 4 / 5 respectively. Therefore Branch A has surplus employees and Branch B has a shortfall, but at the Divisional level it looks like there are the correct number of employees.
Naturaly my customer is a bit concerned that this could be misleading data. Is there any way that I can check at the Divisional level (i.e. collapsed) whether a Branch at the expanded level has a surplus or shortage of employees? I'm not sure whether this could be resolved by redesigning the report or if it's even possible. Any ideas would be great!
Regards,
Peter Marshall

I want to transfer a recordset (derived from an Oracle datasource) into
an SQL2000 Server table using VBScript in a ActiveX Script Task using a DTS.
Currently I use the OPENROWSET (and OPENQUERY) method, however
the lenght of the querytext seems to be limited to 8192 bytes.
At this moment I have reached the limit of this lenght, and I am looking
for a solution.
Futher info: The query returns large recordsets of 100,000s of records with 100s of columns. Because of it's complex structure, the standard data transformation in SLQ2000 is not an option.
Using a substitute like:
varRecords = rst1.GetRows
For intI = 0 To UBound(varRecords, 2)
rst2.AddNew
For intJ = 0 To UBound(varRecords, 1)
rst2(intJ) = varRecords(intJ, intI)
Next
Next
rst2.Update
works fine but is much to slow.
Can anyone help me to find a solution?

SO when i try to load from Master table to parent and child table i am using using expresssion like
select B.ID,A.* FROM FLATFILE_INVENTORY AS A JOIN DMS_INVENTORY AS B ON
A.ACDealerID=B.DMSDEALERID AND A.StockNumber=B.STOCKNUMBER AND
A.InventoryDate=B.INVENTORYDATE AND A.VehicleVIN=B.VEHICLEVIN
WHERE convert(date,A.[FtpDate]) = convert(date,GETDATE()) and convert(date,B.Ftpdate) = convert(date,getdate()) ;
If i use this Expression i am getting the current system date data's only from Master table to parent and child tables.
My Problem is If i do this in my local sserver using the above Expression if i loaded today date and if need to load yesterday date i can change my system date to yesterday date and i can run this Expression.so that yeserday date data alone will get loaded from Master to parent and child tables.
If i run this expression to remote server i cannot change the system date in server.
while using this Expression for current date its loads perfectly but when i try to load yesterday data it takes current date date only not the yesterday date data.
What is the Expression on which ever date i am trying load in the master table same date need to loaded in Parent and child table without changing the system Date.
I'm using an ObjectDataSource in Visual Studio to retrieve records from a SQL Server 2005 database.
I have a very simple dilemma. In a table I have fields FirstName, Surname, Address1, Address2, Address3 etc. None of these are mandatory fields.
It is quite common for the user not to enter data in Address2, Address3, so the values are <null> in the SQL table.
In Visual Studio 2005 I have an aspx form where users can pass search parameters to the ObjectDataSource and the results are returned according to the passed in parameters.
The WHERE clause in my Table Adapter is:WHERE (Address1 LIKE @Address1 + '%') AND (Address2 LIKE @Address2 + '%') AND (Address3 LIKE @Address3 + '%') AND (FirstName LIKE @FirstName + '%') AND (Surname LIKE @Surname + '%')
If, for example, I simply want to search WHERE FirstName LIKE ‘R’, this does not return any results if the value of Address3 is <null>
My query is this: Could someone please show me the best way in Visual Studio 2005 to return records even if one of the Address fields is <null>.
For reference, I have tried: Address3 LIKE @Address3 + '%' OR IS NULLThis does work, however itsimply returns every instance where Address3 is <null> (accounting for about 95% of the records in the database). Thanks in advance Simon

Hi, everione,
I am having a big problem, trying to create datebase.
I have 3 tables: SUPERAVATAR, MASTERAVATAR, MEGAAVATAR.
- SuperAvatars are heroes in an online role playing gaming. They have an ID, ‘superavatarID’ which contain an UNIQUE NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY to identify them.
A wisdom – ‘trickster’,’conjuror’,’magician’, etc..
A current owner… who is the user or player of the game and has that Super Avatar– we associate the link to USERID to know the person.
SuperAvatars can be fathers or mothers of Mega Avatars.
-MegaAvatars are the children of SuperAvatars…. They also have an ID UNIQUE NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY to indentify them.
A magic power – it can be a ‘Leader’ or ‘Sheep’…
A ‘parent’ – parent is the number identifying to know to who Super Avatar belongs.
e.g.
SUPERAVAT WISD CURRENTOWNER FATHEROF MOTHEROF
1 Thick 3 1
2 Mentally Ch. 11 3
3 Smart 9 2
4 Genius 16 4
5 Thick 19
MEGAAVATARID MAGICPOWER PARENT
1 MAGICIAN 1
2 WIZARD 3
3 SORCERER 2
4 MAGICIAN 4
-We see that MEGAAVATAR 1 has a magic power as Magician and his father is ‘1’. ‘1’ identifies the SUPERAVATAR.
We see SUPERAVATARID…. who has the number ‘1’? the first in the row… who has wisdom – thick and he belongs to the USER with ID number 3.
-We see MEGAAVATARID… we choose the number 2…. His magic power is as WIZARD… and his father is the number 3.
We see SUPERAVATARID now… we look up the SuperavatarID 3…. We can see he has a wisdom – GENIUS… who belongs to the USERID 16 and he is father of MEGAAVATAR number 2.
The list can carry on and never stop.
I have this Problems:
We create in this example 3 tables: Users, SuperAvatar, MegaAvatar
SQL
CREATE TABLE users(userID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_user PRIMARY KEY,email VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL UNIQUE,password VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL UNIQUE,subscription CHAR(8) NOT NULL CHECK (subscription IN('ACTIVE' , 'INACTIVE' ) ) );
CREATE TABLE superavatar(superavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_superavatar PRIMARY KEY, wisdom VARCHAR2(19) NOT NULL CHECK (wisdom IN ('THICK', 'MENTALLY CHALLENGED', 'AWAKE', 'SMART', 'GENIUS')), currentOwner NUMBER NOT NULL, fatherOf NUMBER,motherOf NUMBER);
CREATE TABLE megaavatar (megaavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_megaavatar PRIMARY KEY, magicPower VARCHAR2(12) NOT NULL CHECK (magicPower IN('TRICKSTER','CONJUROR','MAGICIAN','WIZARD','SORCERER')), parent NUMBER);
Now, the 3 tables are created…..
What happen when we try to insert values to this table?
In this case we insert to User Table some examples:
INSERT INTO users VALUES('3','john@hotmail.com','great78','ACTIVE');
INSERT INTO users VALUES('9','chrisandsandra@gmail.com','chrisandra)','ACTIVE');
Now, we insert to SuperAvatar some examples;
INSERT INTO superavatar VALUES('1','THICK','3','1','');
INSERT INTO superavatar VALUES('3','SMART','9','3','');
|
|
‘9’ is the UserID that we already insert to the User table
What’s the problem?
We have to insert manually the data from USERID to CURRENTOWNER as we didn’t match or link CURRENTOWNER from SUPERAVATAR Table to USERID from USER Table with a SQL CODE.
What happen if we have thousands of USERS that they register to this game…? We will never know to how belongs that SUPERAVATAR but if someone do it manually can spend a year.
I am trying to fix this problem …. I add in SUPERAVATAR TABLE ‘CHECK’ in currentOwner..
SQL> CREATE TABLE superavatar
(superavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_superavatar PRIMARY KEY, wisdom VARCHAR2(19) NOT NULL CHECK (wisdom IN ('THICK', 'MENTALLY CHALLENGED', 'AWAKE', 'SMART', 'GENIUS')),
currentOwner NUMBER NOT NULL CHECK (currentOwner IN(SELECT userID FROM users)),
fatherOf NUMBER,
motherOf NUMBER);

It doesn’t work.
