Hi!I want to do a query against a SQL DB and by sorting a datetime field, I want to get the second newest record in the table, not the newest.Can I do that?/Johan Ch
I need to write a select statement where I need to select the record randomely. Is there any function to do that? What's the best way to do that? Please help...
If I have a table structure similar to the following, how might I query it to obtain the Transaction ID, Transaction Date, and Customer Name for the most recent transaction per customer only:
TransactionTable: TransactionID TransactionDate TransactionType CustomerName 1 10/1/07 1 Bob 2 8/30/07 2 Janet 3 9/17/07 1 Mike 4 9/25/07 1 Bob
The following query will return all records in the table other than Janets...not what I want: SELECT Transaction ID, TransactionDate, CustomerName FROM TransactionTable WHERE TransactionType = 1 ORDER BY TransactionDate DESC
The following query will return all records in the table other than Janets again, because DISTINCT will use the combo of TransactionID, TransactionDate, and Customer name for uniqueness...not what I want: SELECT DISTINCT Transaction ID, TransactionDate, CustomerName FROM TransactionTable WHERE TransactionType = 1 ORDER BY TransactionDate DESC
The results set I'm looking for would be the following, where only the most recent entry per customer with TransactionType 1 is returned (i.e. one record for Bob):
TransactionTable: TransactionID TransactionDate CustomerName 1 10/1/07 Bob 3 9/17/07 Mike
I believe I need an appropriate subquery to yield the results I desire, but can't sort out what it is? I do not want to execute multiple queries but subqueries are fine. Unfortunately there's probably an easy answer that my brain is not currently generating. Any help would be appreciated.
Note, this is not a real table, but a sample to illustrate the concept for the query I need.
anyone can help me? i using sp to select a select statement from a join table. due to the requirement, i need to group the data into monthly/weekly basic.
so i already collect the data for the month and use the case to make a new compute column in the selete statement call weekGroup. this is just a string showing "week 1", "week 2" .... "week 5".
so now i want to group the weekgroup and disply the average mark. so i need to insert all the record from the select statement into the temporary table and then use 2nd select statement to collect the new data in 5 record only. may i know how to make this posible?
Hey gang, I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query') I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling. Here's my current Query this works fine: Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#') What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note. I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi I have a table with a user column and other columns. User column id the primary key.
I want to create a copy of the record where the user="user1" and insert that copy in the same table in a new created record. But I want the new record to have a value of "user2" in the user column instead of "user1" since it's a primary key
Is that possible to restrict inserting the record if record already exist in the table.
Scenario: query should be
We are inserting a bulk information of data, it should not insert the row if it already exist in the table. excluding that it should insert the other rows.
Hi All,I have a table in SQL Server 2000 that contains several million memberids. Some of these member ids are duplicated in the table, and eachrecord is tagged with a 1 or a 2 in [recsrc] to indicate where theycame from.I want to remove all member ids records from the table that have arecsrc of 1 where the same member id also exists in the table with arecsrc of 2.So, if the member id has a recsrc of 1, and no other record exists inthe table with the same member id and a recsrc of 2, I want it leftuntouched.So, in a theortetical dataset of member id and recsrc:0001, 10002, 20001, 20003, 10004, 2I am looking to only delete the first record, because it has a recsrcof 1 and there is another record in the table with the same member idand a recsrc of 2.I'd very much appreciate it if someone could help me achieve this!Much warmth,Murray
I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual (empno, accrued_vacation, accrued_sick_effective_date, accrued_sick, import_date)
I hope someone can answer this, I'm not even sure where to start looking for documentation on this. The SQL query I'm referencing is included at the bottom of this post.
I have a query with 3 select statements joined together like tables. It works great, except for the fact that I need to declare a variable and make it a table within two of those 3. The example is below. You'll see that I have three select statements made into tables A, B, and C, and that table A has a variable @years, which is a table.
This works when I just run table A by itself, but when I execute the entire query, I get an error about the "declare" keyword, and then some other errors near the word "as" and the ")" character. These are some of those errors that I find pretty meaningless that just mean I've really thrown something off.
So, am I not allowed to declare a variable within these SELECT tables that I'm creating and joining?
Thanks in advance, Andy

ID Name Phone --- ---- ----- 1 John 1234567 1 John H. 2 Dave 9876543 2 Dave Smith
I want to select only one record of each ID, the output should be
ID Name Phone --- ---- ----- 1 John 1234567 2 Dave 9876543
It doesn't matter which record to select, but I need just a single complete record. I can't use select distinct ID because it will not show the other fieldnames.
I have a sql query that looks for values in a few different databases....
is there a way to select the last record in the table b/c I am pulling the hours worked on jobs and one person may have 3 job titles but i want it to show the balance of hours under the most recent job... Instead all the jobs are showing the same value even though only one of them had those hours under it. I think a way to get around this is to select the last value b/c that is under the job title most recently worked and they are in order by timesheets which can be ordered by date...any ideas?

I need to select a spesific record using the recordkey and then select the previous and the next record as well. (which leaves me with a recordset containing three records)
Every hour we capture some values from our factory (position of pumps, valves, ...) in our sql server 2000 db.
Normally 1 record is added to the db. 00:00:00 01:00:00 02:00:00 ... 21:00:00 22:00:00 23:00:00
All of these values are displayed in an Excel sheet. One sheet contains all the data from one month.
I noticed a problem last week when 2 records were added: first one at 19:00:00 and the second one at 19:00:01
We only want to keep the most recent record (19:00:01) in a situation like this but I can't seem to work out an SQL-statement :o
This is what we have know. It used to work fine untill we had 2 record being added instead of one. SELECT TimeOfCapture, Value1, Value2, Value3 FROM FactoryTable WHERE (MONTH(TimeOfCapture) = MONTH(GETDATE())) AND (YEAR(TimeOfCapture) = YEAR(GETDATE()))
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.
