How To Limit The Select Query Result Based On Start And End Parameter
May 23, 2001
I am a newbie to SQL Server.
I have a problem, in filtering the records returned by a query.
I have a table which contains 1 million records, it has a user defined primary key which is of character type.
The problem is i need to filter the output of a select query on the table based on two parameters i send to that query.
The first parameter will be the starting row number and the second one is the ending row number.
I need a procedure to do this.
For Eg:
MyProc_GetRowsFromBigTable(startRowNo,endRowNo) should get me only the rows in the specified range.
Till now I get data form multiple table using join, but unable to understand how can i get the this result based on given table -
Result should be -

/*Subject: How to build a procedure that returns differentnumbers of columns as a result based on a parameter.You can copy/paste this whole post in SQL Query Analyzeror Management Studio and run it once you've made surethere is no harmful code.Currently we have several stored procedures which finalresult is a select with several joins that returns manycolumns (150 in one case, maybe around 50 the average).We have analyzed our application and found out that mostof the time not all the columns are used. We haveidentified 3 different sets of columns needed indifferent parts of the application.Let's identify and name these sets as:1- simple set, return the employee list for example2- common set, return the employee information (whichinclude the simple set)3- extended set, return the employee information (whichinlude the common set which itself includes the simpleset) + additional information from other tables, maybeeven some SUM aggregates and so on (I don't know forexample, how much sales the employee did so far).So the bigger sets contain the smaller ones. Please keepreading all the way to the bottom to better understandtechnically what we are trying.Here is a code sample of how our current procedureswork. Please note that the passing parameter we can eitherpass a Unique Identifier (PK) to retrieve a single record,or if we pass for example -1 or NULL we retrieve all theemployee records.*/create table a ( apk int primary key, af1 int, af2 int, af3 int, af4int, af5 int, af6 int)create table b ( bpk int primary key, bf1 int, bf2 int, bf3 int, bf4int, bf5 int, bf6 int)create table c ( cpk int primary key, cf1 int, cf2 int, cf3 int, cf4int, cf5 int, cf6 int)create table d ( dpk int primary key, df1 int, df2 int, df3 int, df4int, df5 int, df6 int)insert a values (1,1111,1112,1113,1114,1115,1116)insert a values (2,1211,1212,1213,1214,1215,1216)insert a values (3,1311,1312,1313,1314,1315,1316)insert a values (4,1411,1412,1413,1431,1415,1416)insert a values (5,1511,1512,1513,1514,1515,1516)insert a values (6,1611,1612,1613,1614,1615,1616)insert b values (1,2111,2112,2113,2114,2115,2116)insert b values (2,2211,2212,2213,2214,2215,2216)insert b values (3,2311,2312,2313,2314,2315,2316)insert b values (4,2411,2412,2413,2431,2415,2416)insert b values (5,2511,2512,2513,2514,2515,2516)insert b values (6,2611,2612,2613,2614,2615,2616)insert c values (1,3111,3112,3113,3114,3115,3116)insert c values (2,3211,3212,3213,3214,3215,3216)insert c values (3,3311,3312,3313,3314,3315,3316)insert c values (4,3411,3412,3413,3431,3415,3416)insert c values (5,3511,3512,3513,3514,3515,3516)insert c values (6,3611,3612,3613,3614,3615,3616)insert d values (1,4111,4112,4113,4114,4115,4116)insert d values (2,4211,4212,4213,4214,4215,4216)insert d values (3,4311,4312,4313,4314,4315,4316)insert d values (4,4411,4412,4413,4431,4415,4416)insert d values (5,4511,4512,4513,4514,4515,4516)insert d values (6,4611,4612,4613,4614,4615,4616)gocreate procedure original_proc @pk int asif @pk = -1set @pk = nullselecta.af1, a.af2, a.af3, a.af4, b.bf1, b.bf2, b.bf3, b.bf4, c.cf1, c.cf2,c.cf3, c.cf4, d.df1, d.df2, d.df3, d.df4fromajoin b on a.apk = b.bpkjoin c on b.bpk = c.cpkjoin d on c.cpk = d.dpkwherea.apk = ISNULL(@pk, a.apk)goexec original_proc 1go/*Currently the above SP is a single SP that is basicallyreturning ALL possible needed data.

Goal: My request is the retrieve the return result from sp_Test as 8, 2, 4, 1 ,3 (take a look at picture 1) based on the chronological list from User-Defined Table Type dbo.tvf_id.
Problem: When I execute the stored procedure I sp_Test I retrive the list that is from 1 to 8. I don't know how to do it?

I have two tables .. in one (containing user data, lets call it u).The important fields are:u.userName, u.userID (uniqueidentifier) and u.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier)The second table (w) has fieldsw.delegateID (uniqueidentifier), w.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier) The SP takes the delegateID and I want to gather all the people from table u where any of the workgroupID's for that delegate match in w. one delegateID may be tied to multiple workgroupID's. I know I can create a temporary table (@wgs) and do a: INSERT INTO @wgs SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateIDthat creates a result set with all the workgroupID's .. this may be one, none or multipleI then want to get all u.userName, u.userID FROM u WHERE u.workgroupIDThis query works on an individual workgroupID (using another temp table, @users to aggregate the results was my thought, so that's included) INSERT INTO @users SELECT u.userName,u.userID FROM tableU u LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID WHERE u.workgroupID = @workGroupIDI'm trying to avoid looping or using a CURSOR for the performance hit (had to kick the development server after one of the cursor attempts yesterday)Essentially what I'm after is: SELECT u.userName,u.userID FROM tableU u LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID WHERE u.workgroupID = (SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateID) ... but that syntax does not work and I haven't found another work around yet.TIA!
I am not sure about the architecture of the Issue Tracker and hence not sure if it applies here. But I will post in any case and wait for users on this forums comments as well.
===========Earlier post================== This question is regarding the architecture of TimeEntry. In some programs it builds an arrayList for Master-detail type of relationship and when user is ready to save it by clicking 'submit' it build a variable with pipe delimited fields. This is then passed to a sql query.
This to me does not seem to be an efficient manner. Because the max character is 1500 chars as parameter to SQL query.
I was wondering if instead I could store it as an XML and then use the XML to import in to SQL.
Any ideas is greatly appreciated, I am running in to problems where my variable construct does increase to more than 1500 chars. Any thoughts are much appreciated in this regards.
I have this semi-complex query that is selecting items from numerous tables residing on 2 different databases. So far the query works perfectly. Here is the problem: The user is given the option of selecting items based on whether a course is Completed (C) Incomplete (I) Passed (P) Failed (F) or (ALL). I am not really sure how to do the select all, the others I can do depending on the value...
Any thoughts??

I need to create a derived column for each row in a SQL dataset.
This derived column needs to be created by passing across two values from the SQL dataset and querying an Oracle table based on those parameters. If the Oracle query returns a record(s) then the derived column should be set to 1 otherwise leave it as default (0).
One of these parameters needs to check a date range so I can't use a Lookup Transformation...any ideas how I can accomplish this ?
Hi everybody, Is there a way to set SelectParameter for SQLDataSource in ASPX file using System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SiteID"]) ? Thanks a lot in advance.
I am using SQL 2005. I have a SELECT query in a stored proc with 3 parameters: @subaccount,@numDaysCutoff,@numDaysPcts. The proc needs to be modified to return data when subaccount values are any of these:
FRRIJ FRRIC FRMM ROBECO FRJV MAIL FRUKV FRICE
Currently I use a WHERE condition and am able to get data correctly. However, for a NULL value I should get everything including those not in the above list. Should I use CASE statement instead? How?

I get 100 rows of result, i want to write a sql query similar to the one available in MySql database where in i can specify the starting row and number of rows of records i want,
something like,
select * from emp LIMIT 10,20
I want all the records from the 10th row to the 20th row.
This would be helpful for me to do paging in the front end , where is i can navigate to the next previous buttons and fetch the corresponding records.
I want to do something like in google, previous next screens.
So I am trying to limit the number of rows fetched from a query.
somethin like,
select * from emp where startRowNum=10 and NoOfRecords = 20
When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view. Using third technique i.e. Select Into, I have observed the sort order is again different in the resulting table. My question is what is the difference in mechanisim of query analyzer, bcp, and select into. Thanks
Generating the 4 lines is not the issue; I call 3 functions to do that together with cross apply.One function to get all dates between the start and end date (dbo.AllDays returning a table with only a datevalue column); one function to have these dates evaluated against a work schedule (dbo.HRCapacityHours) and one function to get the absence records (dbo.HRAbsenceHours) What I can't get fixed is having the correct hours per line.
I need to send the result of a procedure to an update statement.Basically updating the column of one table with the result of aquery in a stored procedure. It only returns one value, if it didnt Icould see why it would not work, but it only returns a count.Lets say I have a sproc like so:create proc sp_countclients@datecreated datetimeasset nocount onselect count(clientid) as countfrom clientstablewhere datecreated > @datecreatedThen, I want to update another table with that value:Declare @dc datetimeset @dc = '2003-09-30'update anothertableset ClientCount = (exec sp_countclients @dc) -- this line errorswhere id_ = @@identityOR, I could try this, but still gives me error:declare @c intset @c = exec sp_countclients @dcWhat should I do?Thanks in advance!Greg
how can I query the plotted shift sched of employees for a particular day? like I would like to know what shift the employees were scheduled from day1 to 15 of May 2008? the days that I would like to query would be dynamic so it can be day1 to 15 or day3 to day5 or just day20...
I am generating report with my datasource to an OLAP Cube. I have scenario that there are 2 dimension tables pointing to a single fact table. According to a user input, i have to use one dimension table and not the other and vice versa. I tried using IIF statement in the MDX query designer., but was facing errors.
First of all i want to know if this is possible and if yes, how?
Also , Is it possible to open a window form on clicking any report data
(Similar to assigning hyperlink, but i want to open a window form instead!!!)
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).
To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value ----------- ----- colB 123 colA XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly...
I have a report which displays a customers invoice, in both the companys local currency, and the customers local currency.
The report language is "English (United Kingdom)" The fields showing customers currency language setting is set to something else, i.e. "France (French)" to display the Euro currency.
The application handles 34 currencies, the query returns the language string, ("France (French)"), to allow the report to bind its language setting to the querys output.
However, it doesn't work, a normal textbox will display the correct country name string, but Reporting Services cannot bind the language setting to a query result. So I also tried setting it as a report parameter, but no joy either (all currencys revert to USD).
I'm using =First(Fields!curFormat.Value, "myDataSet") to bind the 'language' setting, the result of this expression returns "France (French)", which is a valid option for this language setting, as it's in the drop down list.
Rather than create 34 seperate reports for each currency, are there any suggestions on how to bind a fields language setting to a query result?
Hi, not exactly too sure if this can be done but I have a need to run a query which will return a list of values from 1 column. Then I need to iterate this list to produce the resultset for return. This is implemented as a stored procedure
declare @OwnerIdent varchar(7) set @OwnerIdent='A12345B'
SELECT table1.val1 FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2 ON table1. Ident = table2.Ident WHERE table2.Ident = @OwnerIdent
'Now for each result of the above I need to run the below query
SELECT Clients.Name , Clients.Address1 , Clients.BPhone, Clients.email FROM Clients INNER JOIN Growers ON Clients.ClientKey = Growers.ClientKey WHERE Growers.PIN = @newpin)
I have a question regarding how to use report prompts in SSRS reports that are based on SQL queries. When I added the prompt into the query for use as a filter value, it says that there is an error. It does not recognise the '!' inside the parameter prompt string. Example is parameter!month_prompt.Value, which the ! is not recognised.

I run this query select Max(keepmonth) as keep from Databackup why the result is 6 not 12? I think the max value should 12 , have no idea why it return 6 does my query error? thank you
Does anyone know of a way to emulate the LIMIT clause that is available in Oracle and MySQL?
I could greatly improve my performance on my web application if I could figure out how to do it. I am using TOP right now to just pull back the records needed, but as with any page with many results, once you get 10 pages in you're pulling way too many records accross the wire.
The LIMIT clause works great in the other DBMS's, but MS SQL 2K does not have it. :(
I have information on clothes in a table that I want to select out to a result set in a different structure - I suspect that this will include some kind of pivot (or cross-join?) but as I've never done this before I'd appreciate any kind of help possible.
Current structure is:
Colour Size Quantity ----------------------- Red 10 100 Red 12 200 Red 14 300 Blue 10 400 Blue 12 500 Blue 14 600 Green 10 700 Green 12 800 Green 14 900 Green 16 1000
I want to produce this result set:
Colour Size10 Size12 Size14 Size16 ------------------------------------- Red 100 200 300 0 Blue 400 500 600 0 Green 700 800 900 1000
There could be any number of sizes or colours.
Is this possible? Can anyone give me any pointers?
The value of one of the columns in my table is 14000 lines(678913 characters). The datatype of that column is varchar(MAX). I am doing the following select query but its truncating the results.
select value -- this is truncating the text. from dbo.GUISETTINGS
The length is shown as below when I do the query:
SELECT DATALENGTH(VALUE) from dbo.GUISETTINGS -- return 707951 as the length.
I even tried running the query below but still the value is getting truncated. However, if I right-click and select "Save Results As" a file, then it shows all the lines/characters fine.
select value, cast(value as text), cast(value as varchar(max)) from dbo.GUISETTINGS
I need to select certain rows based on a "datetime" column. I need to select rows from 8am yesterday until 8am today. In Oracle I would use: select * from foo where TIMESTAMP >= trunc(sysdate - 1) + 8/24 AND TIMESTAMP < trunc(sysdate) + 8/24. This would start at 8am yesterday and end at 7:59am today.
