How Do I Use OR Condition In Table Filter Expression
Feb 11, 2008
Hai guys,
In my report I want to use OR condition instead of AND in Table Filter Expression. By default this option is disabled in VS2005 Pro. How do I enable this? or is there any other way to do this? Thanks in advance.
I am working on SQL server 2005 Reports. I have one report, one dataset is assigned to it, and one table which displays it. Now I come accros requirement that, the column value in the filter condition for the table is present in one textbox.
I can not use textbox i.e. reportItems in filter condition. Can someone suggest me how to use textbox value in filters?
I want to display parent/child records on report. I am not getting the proper solution.
The data is like this:
Sequence ItemCode IsParent
1 XYZ 0 'do not have child record
2 PQR 1 'have child records with sequence no 3
3 ASD 0
3 AFDGE 0
3 VDC 0
4 ASR 1 'have child records with sequence no 5 5 ASR 0
If IsParent = 1, that record has child records with sequence = parent sequenece + 1
I think u can understand the data I need to bind, and it is like:
XYZ
+ PQR
ASD
AFDGE
VDC
ASR
On + click we can do show/hide of child records.
I m not getting how to achive this in SQL server report. Can u give some hint?
I am creating a complex expression in a Send Mail Task for the MessageSource. The expression contains the values of many package variables. I want to conditionally include some variables in the expression depending on what value they contain.
Is it possible to create conditional logic (if then else) within an expression? I've got to conditionally include 8 different variables.
Could you please give me any advices on how to filter out the records through out the data flow by any particular condition? E.g. In my case, I want to filter out rows with null id (will get rid of those rows with null id which are not matched in the look up component)? Hope it is clear for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you for your help and thank you very much.
Hello:Is it possible to use CASE expression in AND condition? i.e.------------------------------------------CREATE PROC spBlah( @id INT, @val INT)ASSELECT * FROM aTableWHERE tableID = @idAND ( CASE @val WHEN 1 THEN otherCol = someValue END CASE @val WHEN 2 THEN otherCol != someOtherVlaue END )-------------------------------------------
HiI have some data that need to be filtered based on a SET of Id's.If it's about a single ID, then i would pass it as a parameter in astored procedure and use it within the the WHERE Clause, but here thoseID's are determined in run time and I can't simply create a a storedprocedure for an unknown amount of ID's.I looked into the SQL Server 8.0 Manual but had no examples how to usethe Function Filter.Generaly, how can filter some records based on a set of ID's?Best regards
Using VWD I have created a search feature using the LIKE clause. The filter expression on my SQLDataSource allows the user to search the Description field of a database and yield a result that contains the exact word or phrase entered into a textbox. Assuming that the user enters more than one word, my understanding is that the search result is limited to database rows that contain the EXACT phrase (such as found in an advanced Google search using the “with the exact phrase” option). The current filter expression is: Description LIKE '%{0}%' For example, if “John Smith” is typed into the search textbox, the results will include a row with: 1. “John Smith is my neighbor” but NOT a row with 2. “John is my neighbor. His last name is Smith”. How does one modify the filter expression so that the search result is like the Google “with all the words” search option, where the search results are limited to records in which all the words typed into the textbox are present but not necessarily in the EXACT continuous order? In the example above, BOTH Descriptions would be returned in the search results when “John Smith” in typed into the search textbox. Thanks for any help you can provide in helping me refine my search options.
Hi,I am trying to create an update statementon a table with a foreign key to the Userstable (userid).I am getting the error:An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where acondition is expected, near ')'.Below is the Update statement.UPDATELastLogin SETdate= '2007-08-14 05:34:09.910',status= 1 ,activity = 0WHERE(SELECT ll.status, ll.activity, ll.dateFROM LastLogin ll, Users uWHERE ll.userid = u.useridAND u.email = 'dushkin@hotmail.com')Thanks!
Is it possible to use a IIF IsNothing expression and check another condition? For all the values that are blank, I want it to check another column if  "Disposition" = 2 then I want to show "Inactive"
I am getting an error when running this query in SSRS- "an expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected , near ',' " on the following query in the WHERE clause section.
SELECT MG_BL_ITINERARY.ETA_DT, MG_BL_ITINERARY.TO_LOCATION_CD FROM MG_BL_ITINERARY
[code]...
what I need to change in the WHERE clause to rectify this error ?
I tried enclosing the query in Abs( ), which I have done in the past, although in the past I wasn't using Lookup functions so I don't know if that is the reason it won't work.
I use SQL Server 2005. I have approx. 50 tables in my database and 30 of them have a filed named "CompanyID". Example: create table A (ID int identity, NAME varchar(100), COMPANYID int)create table A (ID int identity, REF_ID int, FIELD1 varchar(100), FIELD2 varchar(100), COMPANYID int)
Also there are nearly 200 stored procedures that read data from these tables. Example: create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */ select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ... /* ... */end;
All my queries in the Stored procedure does not filter the tables by CompanyID, so they process the entire data.
However, now we have a requirement to separate the data for each company. That means that we have to put a filter by CompanyID to each of those 20 tables in each query where the tables appear.
Firstly, I put the CompanyID in the context so now its value is accessible through the context_info() function. Thus I do not need now to pass it as a parameter to the stored procedures.
However, I don't know what is the easiest and fastest way to filter the tables. Example:
I modified the above mentioned procedure in the following way: create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */ -- gets the CompanyID from the context: DECLARE @CompanyID int; SELECT @CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info())) select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ... and A.COMPANYID = @CompanyID and B.COMPANYID = @CompanyID /* ... */end;
Now I have the desired filter by CompanyID. However, modifying over 200 stored procedures is rather tedious work and I don't think that this is the best approach. Is there any functionality in SQL Server that can provide the possibility to put an automatic filter to the tables. For example: when I wrote "SELECT * FROM A", the actual statements to be executed would be "SELECT * FROM A WHERE CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info()))".
I was looking for something like "INSTEAD OF SELECT" triggers but I didn't manage to find any answer.
I would very grateful is someone suggests a solution for something like "global table filter" (that will help me make an easy refactoring)?
I need to translate a user€™s regional setting into one of our own language codes before I send it through as a filter to the model query. If our language codes were the same, the filter would look like this in the report filter - Language Code = GetUserCulture() Which translates to this in the database query (for us english) - table.language_code = 'EN-us' And of course I need it to look like this - table.language_code = 'ENG'
I would like the logic to be globally available to all report writers (ie not forcing each report writer to have an iif or case stataement). I was thinking custom assemblies or maybe a database function, but at this level of the filter, I cannot seem to figure out how to embed a database function call to apply to the filter criteria like this Language Code = dbo.ConvertFcnIWrote(GetUserCulture()) Or how I would access the custom assembly in the filter expression.
Do you have a recommended implementation for this situation?
I am developing a scientific application (demographic forecasting) and have a situation where I need to update a variety of rows, say the ith, jth and kth row that meets a particular condition, say, x.
I also need to adjust rows, say mth and nth that meet condition , say y.
My current solution is laborious and has to be coded for each condition and has been set up below (If you select this entire piece of code it will create 2 databases, each with a table initialised to change the 2nd,4th,8th and 16th rows, with the first database ignoring the condition and with the second applying the change only to rows with 'type1=1' as the condition.)
This is an adequate solution, but if I want to change the second row meeting a second condition, say 'type1=2', I would need to have another WITH...SELECT...INNER JOIN...UPDATE and I'm sure this would be inefficient.
Would there possibly be a way to introduce a rank by type into the table, something like this added column which increments for each type:
ID Int1 Type1 Ideal Rank by Type
1 1 1 1
2 1 1 2
3 2 1 3
4 3 1 4
5 5 1 5
6 8 2 1
7 13 1 6
8 21 1 7
9 34 1 8
10 55 2 2
11 89 1 9
12 144 1 10
13 233 1 11
14 377 1 12
15 610 1 13
16 987 2 3
17 1597 1 14
18 2584 1 15
19 4181 1 16
20 6765 1 17
The solution would then be a simple update based on an innerjoin reflecting the condition and rank by type...
I hope this posting is clear, albeit long.
Thanks in advance

I am using stored procedure to load gridview but problem is that i am not getting all rows from first table[Â Subject] on applying conditions on second table[ Faculty_Subject table] ,as you can see below if i apply condition :-
Faculty_Subject.Class_Id=@Class_Id
Then i don't get all subjects from subject table, how this can be achieved.
Sql Code:- GO ALTER Proc [dbo].[SP_Get_Subjects_Faculty_Details] @Class_Id int AS BEGIN
I got one table with 3 columns = Column1, Column2, Column3
Sample Table
Column1 | Column2 | Column3 ------------------------------------ A | 12 | 0 A | 13 | 2 B | 12 | 5 C | 5 | 0
Select Column1, Column2, Column3 as New1 Where Column1 = A AND Column2 = 12 AND Column3 = 0
Select Column1, Column2, Column3 as New2 Where Column1 = A AND Column2 = 12 AND Column3 >0
The only difference is one condition Column3 = 0 and another one Column3 > 0. This two condition is not an "AND" condition... but just two separate information need to be display in one table. So how do i display the result in one table where the new Output will be in this manner
Im not even sure how to word this right, but how do I compare one element(unsure word number 1) namely Filename, from a list of results, and use that value as a variable for another condition in the same select... I think?!
So if I get a list of 50 filenames (from a log table), some might be double. If the file was successfully processed, it will log that filename and the status as OK and if not then BAD. The file will be modified and then reprocessed until OK. Each time the file was processed, it will log the filename and status. I then run a statement that shows all the files that were BAD (from the log table) and it will bring up then filename and BAD status. What I want to do is check the status' and if the file is BAD, check if there is another logged entry with that filename and status is OK, if found then not produce output as Im only looking for the files that status' are BAD with no OK status for any of the logged entries for that filename.
Is that understandable? If not then Ill try reword it.
Using SQL against a DB2 table the 'with' key word is used todynamically create a temporary table with an SQL statement that isretained for the duration of that SQL statement.What is the equivalent to the SQL 'with' using TSQL? If there is notone, what is the TSQL solution to creating a temporary table that isassociated with an SQL statement? Examples would be appreciated.Thank you!!
HI all,In SQL Server, i have a function which will return a table. likecreate function fn_test (@t int) returns table asreturn (select * from table)now i want the function to retun the table based on some condition like belowcreate function fn_test(@t int) returns table asif @t = 1 return (select * from table1)else return (select * from table2)It is not working for me. Please give me your suggesstions. It's very urgent.Thank you in advance....

I'm having a problem... maybe it's very simple, but with soo many work, right now I can't think well...
I need to filter rows in a dataflow...
I created a condition spli to that... maybe there is a better solution...
And the condition is: Datex != NULL(DT_DATE)
(Some DATE != NULL)
[Eliminar Datex NULL [17090]] Error: The expression "Datex != NULL(DT_DATE)" on "output "Case 1" (17123)" evaluated to NULL, but the "component "Eliminar Datex NULL" (17090)" requires a Boolean results. Modify the error row disposition on the output to treat this result as False (Ignore Failure) or to redirect this row to the error output (Redirect Row). The expression results must be Boolean for a Conditional Split. A NULL expression result is an error.
