How To Make A Date Entry
May 27, 2007
First, let me say I'm really new (and probably dangerous) with SQL.
I want to take a column in my database called "publish_up" and add 4 days to the date and put it in a column in the database called "publish_down." The publish_up date is the date to start publishing and the publish_down is the date to stop publishing. A Joomla! mambot will then come by and archive the items with a publish_down date that matches today's date.
I'm pretty sure my server has SQL 5 if that's an issue.
Thanks for any advice or help you can offer.

Hi,
I want to know the different sources, mediums and ways using which the duplicate recoprds or adta can make an entry in our database tables. I found 4 ways for this from many articles on net that are as follows:
Duplicate data might arrive at your database via an interface to another system
Data is loaded into table from other sources because during data loads, the integrity constraints are disabled
Merging data from disparate systems
Inheriting a poorly designed databaseBut is there any other ways also present????? Please tell me???
Thanks,

I have a query that pulls data by date so that I have every day of the month but I would like to group it by month so that I only have one entry per month. Can that be done?

We are trying to do some utilization calculations that need to factor in a given number of holiday hours per month.
I have a date dimension table (dimdate). Has a row for every day of every year (2006-2015)
I have a work entry fact table (timedetail). Has a row for every work entry. Each row has a worked date, and this column has a relationship to dimdate.
Our holidays fluctuate, and we offer floating holidays that our staff get to pick. So we cannot hard code which individual dates in dimdate as holidays. So what we have done is added a column to our dimdate table called HolidayHoursPerMonth.
This column will list the number of holiday hours available in the given month that the individual date happens to fall within, thus there are a lot of duplicates. Below is a brief example of dimdate. In the example below, there are 0 holiday hours for the month of June, and their are 8 holiday hours for the month of July.
DateKey MonthNumber HolidayHoursPerMonth
6/29/2015 6 0
6/30/2015 6 0
7/1/2015 7 8
7/2/2015 7 8
I have a pivot table create based of the fact table. I then have various date slicers from the dimension table (i.e. year, month). If I simply drag this column into the pivot table and summarize by MAX it works when you are sliced on a single month, but breaks if anything but a single month is sliced on.
I am trying to create a measure that calculates the amount of holiday hours based on the what's sliced, but only using a single value for each month. For example July should just be 8, not 8 x #of days in the month.
Listed below is how many hours per month. So if you were to slice on an entire year, the measure should equal 64. If you sliced on Jan, Feb and March, the measure should equal 12. If you were to slice nothing, thus including all 15 years in our dimdate table, the measure should equal 640 (10 years x 64 hours per year).
MonthNumberOfYear HolidayHoursPerMonth
1 8
2 4
3 0
4 0
5 8
6 0
7 8
8 0
9 8
10 4
11 16
12 8

I hate manipulating dates in SQL. One of the many things Access and VB handles much better!
I wanted a function like DateSerial(Year,Month,Day) so I created one.
One caveat: The Year must be >= 1800. But all other numbers can be most any int value that results in a valid date.
Which means you can do:
MDate(Year(@d),1,1) (first day of date @d)
MDate(Year(@d), Month(@d) + 1, -1) (last day of month of date @d)
MDate(2000,1,1) (create a date quickly and easily w/o convert)
MDate(Year(@d)+1,1,1) (get first day of next year for date @d)
..etc... whatever you can do with VB's DateSerial() function, except for the year must be >=1800.
Or, does this exist already in SQL and I'm missing it somewhere??
Is there an easier/better way to do this?
* * * *
Create function MDate(@Year int, @Month int, @Day int)
returns datetime
AS
BEGIN
declare @d datetime;
set @d = dateadd(year,(@Year - 1800),'1/1/1800');
set @d = dateadd(month,@Month - 1,@d);
return dateadd(day,@Day - 1,@d)
END

hi,I was pulling up a report in SQL, and I wanted the records to be ordered by dates descending. However, I found this ordering was only fine enough to order records by dates (not hours or minutes) (within the same date, records were ordered so that the latest entered were at the bottom). I wonder if anyone else has encouted this problem before, or I am doing something wrong.Thanks very much.

In the below scenario we are inserting some time related fields in Temp table.But its data type is varchar. Once data loading is finished in the temp table (Data is loading by source team SQOOP and they are unable to load if the source datatype is having Date or datetime) we have to alter the column datatypes. somehow, some character data in inserted in date columns (look at into 3rd insert statement). while altering the table it is failing. Can we do any alternative for this (Means if any varchar data that is non convertible to date can we make as null)
INSERT INTO ##TEMP_TEST
SELECT '2014-09-30','2017-10-06','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM'
UNION SELECT '2014-09-29','2017-10-06','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM'
UNION SELECT '2014-09-28','2017-10-06','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM','Nov 6 2014 6:11AM'
GO
INSERT INTO ##TEMP_TEST SELECT NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL

Can someone please help me solve the following error? I am not sure of the version my hosting company is using and where to get the manual.
Could not add the entry because: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-id, title, entry, date_entered) VALUES ('testing', 'testing', . The query was INSERT INTO blog_entries (blog-id, title, entry, date_entered) VALUES ('testing', 'testing', 'testing'.
PHP Code:
if ($dbh = mysql_connect ('localhost', 'blu6592_money', 'rich')) {
print '<p>Successfully connected to MySQL.</p>';
if (mysql_select_db ('blu6592_myblog')) {
print '<p>The database has been selected.</p>';
} else {
die ('<p>Could not select the database because: <b>' . mysql_error() . '</b></p>');
}
$query = "INSERT INTO blog_entries
(blog-id, title, entry, date_entered)
VALUES (0, '{$_POST['title']}',
'{$_POST['title']}',
'{$_POST['entry']}', NOW())";
if (mysql_query ($query)) {
print '<p>The blog entry has been added.</p>';
} else {
print "<p>Could not add the entry because: <b>" . mysql_error() . "</b>. The query was $query.</p>";
}
} else {
die ('<p>Could not connect to MySQL because: <b>' . mysql_error() . '</b></p>');
}
mysql_close();

(I don't post here often, so in case I'm violating long-standing taboosof this newsgroup, I apologize in advance for calling a relation atable, using nulls, and other ignorant, destructive, and comtemptibleterminology.)I have a table that's keeping a sort of running log of different typesof changes to pieces of data. The table has a foreign key of the databeing changed, the foreign key for the type of change occuring, someinformation about the change in a couple more columns, and a timestampfor each entry. So it's:dataIDeventIDeventInfotimestampWhat I'd like to do, if at all possible, is a single SQL query that,given a dataID, returns the most recent eventInfo and timestamp foreach eventID. Is this possible?Many thanks.-Eric

"High priority system task thread: Operating system error Exception 0xAE encountered."
we are seeing this on one of our development servers, running SQL 2005 Enterprise SP1. The symptom is that after the sql service has been running a while (order of days), this error starts getting written to the sql server log file over and over, and eventually the logfile fills the drive.
Apparently it's fixed by this hotfix, but our ops team doesn't want to install this - they'd rather just cycle the service and delete the log when it happens.
I was wondering if anyone else has seen it might know the root cause so we might be able to workaround it without cycling the service. I know, lame question. The correct answer is "install the hotfix" or "install sp2" but our ops team won't do that for now...

Hello,
I have a table of names/dates as such:
Class 1 1/1/2007Class 1 1/3/2007Class 1 1/5/2007Class 2 2/1/2007Class 2 2/3/2007Class 3 3/1/2007
What I want to do is select only the nearest entry from the list for each distinct class, so the results are like this:
Class 1 1/1/2007Class 2 2/1/2007Class 3 3/1/2007
So basically, I want the first upcoming class in the list for each distinct class name. How do I do this? I'm using SQL 2005 Express.
Thanks.

Hi, I know this is probably very simple but I am pretty new to this and have tried looking but cant seem to get the search criteria right. I have a database with a storeDate field which is of shortdatetime type. I am connecting to the database (MSSQL) via a stored procedure and returning all the records. I then use the code foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { DateTime dtTo = DateTime.Now; DateTime dtFrom = DateTime.Parse(dr["storeDate"].ToString()); TimeSpan diff = dtTo.Subtract(dtFrom); } I am basically trying to find out the age of the database entry by subtracting it from the current DateTime so i can delete records over a certain age. The problem (at least one of them!) is retrieving the "storeDate" object from the database and storing it in the dtFrom object. I have tried just assigning it directly as dtFrom = dr["storeDate"] and various other methods but I just don't know enough to assign it! Can anyone help me with this or spot any other mistakes in this process of removing old files automatically. Greatly Appreciated,Sean.

Hi,I'm creating a database using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Comes with Visual Web Developer). The table which I am creating has the following Fields - all don't allow nulls:IDUserIdDateDescription(UserId is a foreign key to asp_net_Users as I am supporting user accounts)Basically what I need to do is create a page where I as an Administrator can log onto and enter just the text for the field Description. Then once I upload this I wish all users to visit the site and view this Description on a page however with it also listing the Administrator who wrote it along with the Date. I wish both of these fields to be added automatically (UserId to display the User Name and the Date to display the date and time with which the Description was added - However these need to be editable by the Administrator if he/she wishes to change them).Can anyone point me in the right direction on the steps needed to create this scenario?Thanks for any helpDaniel

Here's some code that says it should identify if a user already exists in my database. I have changed the code to match my database, but it seems to have somewhat the opposite affect, rejecting all names (even new ones) or accepting all names (including existing ones). The switch in situations occurs in the "if" statement towardsd the end, when I change the sign of objDR.RecordsAffected. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? Thanks.
Function DoesUserExist(ByVal userName As String) As Boolean
Dim connectionString As String = "server='(local)Netsdk'; trusted_connection=true; Database='AuthorizedUsers'"
Dim sqlConnection As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
Dim queryString As String = "SELECT [Users].[UserName] FROM [Users] WHERE ([Users].[UserName] = @UserName)"
Dim sqlCommand As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand(queryString, sqlConnection)
Dim Cmd as New SQLCommand(queryString, sqlConnection)
With Cmd.Parameters
.Add(New SQLParameter("@username", username))
End With
sqlConnection.Open
Dim blHasRows As Boolean
Dim objDR As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader = Cmd.ExecuteReader(system.data.CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
if objDR.RecordsAffected > 0 then
blHasRows="True"
else
blHasRows="False"
End If
Return blHasRows

I am trying to select the last entry (by date) for each category in a table.
For example, if my table had the following fields;

Hi all,
Newbie here, just wanted to get that out of the way first
and foremost.
Im trying to set up a DB in SQL 2000 that allows me to enter
lots of text into a column.
I read one site where it said to use the NTText datatype with a length
of 16. I did that, but everytime I enter alot of text into that column
I get <Long Text> and I dont know how to output that or even
read it.
Do any of you guys know how to either:
1. get the text out of the <long text> or
2. a better way to store that much data.
Thank you in advance!!!

Hey there, could someone please help me!!
I had created a database in sql server but since then installed windows xp pro and now when i go through the microsoft sql server dsn configuration the database is not valid and therefore i cannot change the default database as it says it doesn't exist.
So then when i type in command prompt use 'db' it says it doesn't exist but when i try to create 'db' it says that the database already exists.
I get the error message, could not locate entry in sysdatabases for 'cti' (database name).
When i look in mysql - data - along with master etc there is my cti.mdf and log files??
I'm stuck???
Is it that the files just aren't registering through sql server???

Hi,
I have the following situation:
I have a table that is log of transactions of useractions. Each time a userstatus changes, a new entry is made into the table.
The table has (currently) about 4 million records, and keeps growing each day with thousands of records. It logs the status of about 150 users (currently active).
What I now want is to get the log-entry from all the distinct users that have a log-entry on the latest day (so current day, 'where TimeStamp > 2008-04-08').
(extremely simplified) Example:
(date is y/m/d)
USERID TIMESTAMP STATUS
----------------------------------------------------
... (thousands and millions of records above)

I have an online store with products and categories. The requirements are: Each product can be in one or more categories; a product must be in at least one category.
To accomplish the first requirement, I have a Product table, Category table, and a many-to-many Product2Category table. (Probably not relevant, but a requirement is the Category table is self-referencing to provide sub-categories.)
My question is for the second requirement that each Product be in at least one category. My assumption would be to add a column to the Product table called "ParentCategoryId", which is a foriegn key of the Category table's identity column.
What would be the best approach to ensure a product is in at least one category?
Thank you.
