Hi
I want to get the dateName of everything but I don't know how to sort them now.
Like I have this:
DateName(month,TimeDateStamp) As TimeDateStamp
What gets the dateName now I want to sort these so that they are in order.
How do I do this?
I have a DB with items which can have lengths from 0 to 400 meter.In my resultset I want to show the items with length 1-400 meter and then the results with length 0 meterHow to build my SQL?
Lets say I have a table named [Leadership] and I want to select the field 'leadershipName' from the [Leadership] Table.
My query would look something like this:
Select leadershipName From Leadership
Now, I would like to order the results of this query... but I don't want to simply order them by ASC or DESC. Instead, I need to order them as follows:
Executive Board Members, Delegates, Grievance Chairs, and Negotiators
My question: Can this be done through MS SQL or do I need to add a field to my [Leadership] table named 'leadershipImportance' or something as an integer to denote the level of importance of the position so that I can order on that value ASC or DESC?
I have the following query and I am wanting to get the results to be in order. Right now, it shows me the results by date, but the dates are out of order. How can I get it to give me the results by date in date order???

i want to create a report so that a list of the top 30 records are returned to the report user. In the report i want to have the records position in the list shown (ie the first row should have 1. and the second should be 2. right on down to the 30th having 30.)
Hi there,I'm a little bit confused here. I the TOP 1 function with ORDER BY DESC to get the last id in my table but it doesn't seems to work.Here's an example:SELECT TOP 1 ID FROM Worksheet WHERE Style='302' AND Notes='Automatically created from m0851System.' AND Title='STD COST UPDATED FORM m0851System' ORDER BY ID DESCSELECT ID FROM Worksheet WHERE Style='302' AND Notes='Automatically created from m0851System.' AND Title='STD COST UPDATED FORM m0851System' ORDER BY ID ASCSo basically the first SELECT should return the last id value of the second query but it doesn't.The first query gives me that: 60721And the second one gives me that:60680606816068360684606856068660718607196072060721610506112261124So as you can see my TOP 1 ID ORDER BY ID DESC should gave me this result: 61124Am I missing something or... ?Please help me this is aleready in function so I have to fix it ASAP.Thank you, Regards,OR-THO
I have two tables I selecting name using like with %string% from the two tables but I need to order the result comes from the two table: 1- the exact match for the search string come first from the two table. 2- and the partial match comes last after the exact match.
this is my DDL for the two tables :
USE [Northwind] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[Person] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:24 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Person]( [PersonID] [int] NULL, [Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
second table: USE [Northwind] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[Members] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:52 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Members]( [MemberID] [int] NULL, [Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
and this my search query I have it in a stored Proc.
select *
from
(
SELECT PersonID, Type, Name, email
FROM Person WHERE (Name LIKE '%'@Name'%') union all
hi. i'm trying to order my results ascending by date except i'm getting some really weird output. my ouput resembles something like this:
oct 2 oct 3 sep 13 sep 21 sep 22 sep 30 aug 3 aug 5 aug 16
the data is stored in a date field. i use getdate when inserting the date to the database. is there a reason why the dates are showing up weird and not ordering appropriately? thanks for your help.
also, can you not search here any more? i keep getting timeout errors.
I am trying to Concatenate resulting classification names (X_DSC_CD_ABR below) in the following order (if the classification exists), separated by '/': WC/STD/LTD/FMLA/State/Military/Paid/Corporate/PFL/Other
Consider this SQL:SELECT my_field FROM my_table WHERE my_field IN ('value2', 'value1','value3')Simple enough, but is there anyway to specify that the result should beordered exactly like the "IN" clause states? So when this recordsetcomes back, I want it like this:my_field------------value2value1value3Possible?Deane

Sorry I have to post this here, but its sort of related to MS SQL anyway
I'm running a PHP system with MS Access. I need to order results in pages. (For those who are familiar with MySqL and Postgresql - I need the equivalent to LIMIT/OFFSET in MS Access).
I know I can "SELECT TOP 50" in my sql - so that solves the number of results per page. But what about page 2,3,4..etc.... how do I select results from an offset?
I want to select all the records, and them them be in alphabetical order first by lastname, then by firstname, then by address. HOWEVER, and this is the tricky part, I want to group names together that have the same address. So, in this example, I want the results to be in this order:
HallC6309 N Olive HallP6309 N Olive <---- grouped with the C record because they have the same address HallE5488 W Catalina <---- back to alphabetical by first name HallJ7222 N Cocopas
This one has been stumping me for several days. I can run a query thatreturns several different items from several different manufacturers,each with a ranking score. Each manufacturer can have any number ofitems:Item_Name Manufacturer rankItem 1 Manu_A 82Item 2 Manu_A 65Item 3 Manu_A 41Item 4 Manu_B 32Item 5 Manu_C 21Item 6 Manu_B 19However, I would like the records to be ordered so that the highestranking item is shown first, then the next highest item from adifferent manufacturer is shown second, then the next highest item froma third manufacturer is show, etc.:Item 1 Manu_A 82Item 4 Manu_B 32Item 5 Manu_C 21Item 2 Manu_A 65Item 6 Manu_B 19Item 3 Manu_A 41Does anyone have any thoughts on how to order the results in thisfashion?thanks,Matt Weiner
We have a web application (database) that uses one field called Application and another called TicketType.
When a user fills out a ticket they can choose up to 3 levels of this field. Eg Application, Application2, Application3
Eg TicketType, TicketType2, TicketType3
The extra two levels not being compulsory.
I am using sql server 2005 // Reporting Services
My query is as below: SELECT Ticket.TicketNumber, Ticket.CreatedDate, Application_2.ApplicationName AS Application, Application_1.ApplicationName AS [App 2], Application.ApplicationName AS [App 3], TicketType_2.TicketTypeName AS Tickettype, TicketType_1.TicketTypeName AS [Type 2], TicketType.TicketTypeName AS [Type 3], Ticket.Description, Company.CompanyName FROM Ticket INNER JOIN TicketType AS TicketType ON Ticket.TicketTypeID = TicketType.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN TicketType AS TicketType_1 ON TicketType.ParentTicketTypeID = TicketType_1.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN TicketType AS TicketType_2 ON TicketType_1.ParentTicketTypeID = TicketType_2.TicketTypeID INNER JOIN Application AS Application ON Ticket.ApplicationID = Application.ApplicationID INNER JOIN Company ON Application.CompanyID = Company.CompanyID FULL OUTER JOIN Application AS Application_1 ON Application.ParentApplicationID = Application_1.ApplicationID FULL OUTER JOIN Application AS Application_2 ON Application_1.ParentApplicationID = Application_2.ApplicationID WHERE (Ticket.CreatedDate >= @StartDate) ORDER BY Ticket.TicketNumber
End result looks like this:
Application
App 2
App 3
TicketType
Type 2
Type 3

I'm working with SQL Server 2005, and I'm trying to sort the results based on a user selected letter. Say the user selects 'D' to filter his results. I'd like to return the results starting from D followed by E, F, G...Z, A, B, C. What I'm getting is the results for the D entries at the top of the result set, followed by A, B, C, E...Z.
A solution comes to mind that would be very long and db intensive, by querying on 'like 'D', followed by like 'E', followed by like 'F', etc, but I'm sure that there is a much more efficient way to do this. Below is the code that I'm using now.
' where @SortString = 'd' and @Test is a temp Table
BEGIN
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName like @SortString +'%'
Order by CompanyName
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName not like @SortString +'%'
I have a problem in extracting information pertaing to a key value and matching that key value to another transaction but the order is based on another value in the same row.
Requirement using the above data is to extract data where the ret_ref_no is the same for more than one row but also check that the msg_type 420 happens before the 200. Is there a way of retrieving the information in this way using the tran_nr coloumn values? The tran_nr values is basically the serial number when the transaction is wrriten away to the DB.
I've managed only to retrive the 1st half of my query whereby the same ret_ref_nr is being used by more then one transaction. Still need to figure out the 2nd part where the msg_type of 420 happens before the 200.
SELECT * FROM SAMPLE WHERE ret_ref_no in ( SELECT ret_ref_no FROM SAMPLE GROUP BY ret_ref_no HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 )
hi, how doin ?? in fact i found a problem with DATENAME function. i execute this select to return the week number, i change only the year part, like that :
SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/1993') --> Result = 2 SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/1994') --> Result = 2 SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/1995') --> Result = 1 SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/1996') --> Result = 1 SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/2000') --> Result = 2 SELECT DATENAME(wk,'03/01/2001') --> Result = 1 ...... etc the result must be '1', but i don't know why it returns '2'
If I execute "SELECT DATEPART(weekday, '20080330') as day_of_week", I get a result of 1 which makes sense since Sunday is usually considered the 1st day of the week.
However, if I execute "SELECT DATENAME(weekday, DATEPART(weekday, '20080330')" as day_of_week, I get a result of Tuesday!
Similarly, if I execute "SELECT DATENAME(weekday, 1) as day_of_week", I also get a result of Tuesday.
Hi! Has anyone experienced this problem? Certain queries that work fine in SQL 6.5 and Oracle return inconsistent / inaccurate results in SQL 7 (with SP1). These queries include an IN clause with a range of values. For example, the following query: SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD FROM table WHERE columnD = 'I' AND columnA IN (1,2,3,11,19) go
returns a different result than this query: SELECT columnA, columnB, columnC, columnD FROM table WHERE columnD = 'I' AND columnA IN (1,3,11,2,19) go
The only way we have stumbled upon to get accurate results consistently is to order the range values from largest to smallest: AND columnA IN (19,11,3,2,1)
Have not seen this documented anywhere. We are in the process of re-ordering these ranges in our code, but I welcome any ideas or comments... Thanks!
I am attempting to sort the results of a query executed against a table variable in descending order. The data is being inserted into the table variable as expected, however when I attempt to order the results in descending order, the results are incorrect. I have included the code as well as the result set.
DECLARE @tblCustomRange AS TABLE
(
RecordID INTEGER IDENTITY(1,1),
RangeMonth INTEGER,
RangeDay INTEGER
)
DECLARE @Month INTEGER
DECLARE @Day INTEGER
-- Initialize month and day variables.
SET @Month = 8
SET @Day = 11
-- Insert records into the table variable. INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (1,2)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (1,27)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (6,10)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (9,22)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (12,16)
-- Select everything from the table variable ordering the results by month, day in -- descending order
I'm trying to get the following sql to work in a textbox. I have select the textbox properties and it's value is =datename(m,dateadd(m,-1,current_timestamp))
I would like the results of "October"
however I get the following error
The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox1€™ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'datename' is not declared.
I'm pretty new to this so I do not know excatly what that error means.
Am I doing something wrong or is SQL Server doing something odd? I need to find a fix for this pretty quickly and any help would be greatly appreciated.
In this case I would like to output a single result for each order, but based on stock availability order 123 is not a complete order and 124 is so the results will need to reflect this.
Finding the "pieces of information" I need to successfully install the SQL Server Express edition is so complex. Uninstalls do "not" really uninstall completely, leading to failure of SQL install. Can you suggest a thorough, one-stop site for directions for the order of app uninstalls and then the order for app installs for the following...
SQL Server Express edition
Visual Studios 2005
Jet 4.0 newest upgrade
.Net Framework 2.0 (or should I use 3.0)
VS2005 Security upgrade
Anything else I need for just creating a database for my VS2005 Visual Basic project?
I was trying to use MS Access as my backend db but would like to try SQL Express
In SQL sERVER 2008, I have two fields - Depatment and Employees. I need to sort the result set by employee number ascending order, with following exception
1)when department number = 50 - the preferred order is Employee # - 573 followed by 551-572 (employee # belong to Dept 50 = 551-573)
2)When Department number = 20 – the preferred sort order is Employee # 213-220, followed by Employee # 201-213 (employee # belong to Dept 20 = 201-220)
I never paid much attention to this before but I noticed this today in a new table I was creating.
For tables defined in the tabular model the table properties have something like SELECT Blah FROM TableName ORDER BY Blah Then in the tabular model the table's data is in the same order it was ordered by in the data source for the table.
I have a date table I setup and I noticed it is NOT respecting the sort order.
I have it sorted by DateID which sorts with the oldest date first and newest date as last row.However, the table that is imported and stored in the data model is not in that order.
I can of course manually sort the rows in BIDS/DataTools, but I find this discrepancy odd.
Would this have negative impacts on the EARLIER function for example if the data rows are not in the order specified?
INSERT INTO PurchaseOrder (PurchaseOrderDate, SupplierID) VALUES(@date, @SupplierID)
END
SET @POno = @@IDENTITY
RETURN
However, how do i make it that it will automatically adds item under the POno being gernerated? can i use a trigger so that whenever a Insert for PO is success, it automaticallys proceed to adding the items into the table PurcahseOrderItem?
