I have a "Sales shipments" report with several colums. I want a parameter for the user so he choose how to sort. I have two colums in my report I want to sort on: ItemNumber and DeliveryDate.
I added a Report Parameter UserSort with two labels (and values): Item (ItemNumer) and Date (DeliveryDate).
Then I tried to set the sorting
I have a SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedure that takes a parameter to sort on:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetAllApplications_Sorted]
@sortType varchar(25)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT aev.ApplicationID,
aev.ApplicationName,
aev.EventMessage,
aev.MachineID,
aev.MachineName,
aev.EventLevel,
ellu.EventImg,
ellu.EventLevelID,
dbo.GetMaxEventLevelByApplicationID(aev.ApplicationID) AS maxEventLevel
FROM dbo.ApplicationEventView aev, dbo.EventLevelLookUp ellu
WHERE ellu.EventLevelID=dbo.GetMaxEventLevelByApplicationID(aev.ApplicationID)
AND aev.EventLevel=ellu.EventLevel
ORDER BY ellu.EventLevelID + ' ' + @sortType
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Problem is I keep getting this error:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'desc' to data type int.
And I can't figure out why...
Thanks,
Doug
Is there a way to pass a parameter into a stored procedure to set the sort order.
I have tried things like
ORDER by EmployeeID @direction
where @direction is a varchar with a value of 'desc' and I get an error.
I do not want to dynamically create the sql and use sp_executesql.
I have already done it this was but I am looking for a better solution.

I have a SSRS report with data in below format.
ID Name Date

3 C 01/02/2013
Also, I have a sort parameter @sort and values are (Name, ID, Date)
I want to apply page break whenever @sort=Name. There should be no page break when user selects @sort = ID or Date. Page break should happen only when @sort value = Name
it should be like this...

Hi all,We recently upsized two Microsoft Access Databases to SQL. We'reusing an ADP (2002) as the front end.All the conversion issues have been resolved, except for one:Whenever we insert a record into a table, the table isn't sorted byprimary key like I would expect. Instead, the record can be found atthe end of the table. This makes finding a particular record(especially as time goes on) very difficult.I've tried eliminating all indexes except for the primary key, andalso writing AFTER INSERT triggers, but the table still does not sortcorrectly.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Matt

Is there a way to re sort data in a table? based on ID.
The
SORT TABLE tlb_Name ON ID Asc
is not working?
Thank you very much.
I have quite a long SP which is made up of various tables, temp tables, etc.
I am creating 11 physical tables which i am using to create a DTS package to auto output to an excel spreadsheet (template for a report).
The problem is although i have used ORDER BY statements to sort the data in ascending order the data isnt sorted.
Heres an example of one of the table outputs
--Create Table of Managers
DELETE FROM Weekly_Term_Code_Output7
INSERT INTOWeekly_Term_Code_Output7
SELECT #Temp_Agent.Manager
FROM #temp5 INNER JOIN
#Temp_Agent ON #temp5.agent_login = #Temp_Agent.agent_login
WHERE (NOT (#Temp_Agent.Manager IS NULL))
GROUP BY #Temp_Agent.Manager
ORDER BY #Temp_Agent.Manager
ive also tried placing an order by statement in the output to excel in the DTS package but this also doesnt work?
Any ideas anyone??
I am trying to set sorting up on a DataGrid in ASP.NET 2.0. I have it working so that when you click on the column header, it sorts by that column, what I would like to do is set it up so that when you click the column header again it sorts on that field again, but in the opposite direction. I have it working using the following code in the stored procedure: CASE WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'ASC' then Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, Convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end ASC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end DESC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end ASC And I gotta tell you, that is ugly code, in my opinion. What I am trying to do is something like this: case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' then FileName end,
case when @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' then FileDataID end,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' then FileDesc
when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' then VersionNotes
end
case when @SortOrder = 'DESC' then DESC
when @SortOrder = 'ASC' then ASC
end and it's not working at all, i get an error saying: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'case' when i put a comma after the end on line 5 i get: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DESC' What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for any help -Madrak

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
We have developped an ETL. For development we used small test files (10 000 rows) to test if it works correctly.
This runs in less then a minute
In Test we are using a file which contains all rows (7 million). We did twice a test and we first stopped the process after a week and the 2nd time we stopped the process after a weekend.
We are able to trace the problem to the point where it has to sort the tables.
The proces is pretty simple. We use two connectors to directly connect to the tables.
Then we have two blocks to sort the data. And then we have one block to merge the data.
Should we which to let SQL do the sorting ? Since it is in staging is has no index on that column. A select on the tables with an order by takes 3 minutes to return all those rows.
Any idea's ?
Also is there a page with the best practices for ETL ?

hello
i am currently trying to port a "Business Objects" report to SQL Server Reporting Services.
in B.O., there is a possibility to define the order of the table values by previewing the table values and moving them up or down.
Example : the dataset contains data for 3 items, so in the Custom Sort window, I will see these 3 items and I can order them by moving them up or down in a listbox.
is this possible to do in Reporting Services ?
I'm trying out the interactive sort feature (and have searched high and low for this answer), but can not make the sorting work if I have the data in the table grouped. If I remove the group, the sorting works fine but the output is not acceptable due to the duplicated records in the list.
Can someone steer me in the right direction?

Address

Country
First_Name

Is there a way to change the order that "select * from #table" returns data? It doesn't appear to return data in the same order that it was inserted into the table. This wasn't a problem with the same code in SQL Server 2005.

I have a table with a RowNumber Group which shows 10 rows in each page.
it works fine.
in the next step i put an Interactive sorting on one column.
i expect that the sorting is on the table no regarding the presentation which shows only 10 rows.
in reality what happens is that the table was sorted seperated for each part of the 10 rows table,
and no for the whole table.
does any one have a suggestion how to force the Interactive Sort , sorting he Whole table first
and only later to present 10 rows each page (use the group expression)
Thanks,

I have a data load process that reads data from flat file into a Stage table in sql server. The order of the records in the stage table is exactly same as the order in the flat file. The identity column on the Stage table (which is also the clustered index) represents the exact line/row number of the data in the filat file. I perform some transformations on the data in the stage table and then insert it into a cumulative table which has a clustered index on an identity column again. When I do this, does the order of the data in the cumulative table be in the same order as the data in the stage table? Anyone, please let me know if I can rely on SQL server to maintain the same order or I will be forcing a sort order on the Identity column (clustered index) of the stage table when I insert the data into a cumulative table.
Thanks in advance!!

As you can see, the Location, Start and End dates can vary for each person and I don't know how many rows a single person might have.
The result I want, is a "pivot like" table.

I assume I can first do a count of the maximum rows for an individual and that is greatest number of columns I would need. But doing that and trying to figure out the rest has really stumped me.
Any thoughts, ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How to sort table in sql2000 with ipaddress(format x.x.x.x) as column with nvarchar datatype in ascending order
without using stored procedure
Ex:
Table: netComputers(3 rows)
Column Name: ipAddress (string data type)
ipAddress
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.0.1
Sql query : if I use the query
Select ipAddress from netComputers order by cast( replace(ipaddress,'.','') as numeric(12)) asc
Gives result as :
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.18.1
Where as expected result should be:
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
I'm using SS 2012.
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@Source_Tbl sysname
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl
)
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12
Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
The input table can have several thousand rows.
I would like to create a procedure which create views by taking parameters the table name and a field value (@Dist).
However I still receive the must declare the scalar variable "@Dist" error message although I use .sp_executesql for executing the particularized query.
Below code.
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[sp_ViewCreate]
/* Input Parameters */
@TableName Varchar(20),
@Dist Varchar(20)
AS
Declare @SQLQuery AS NVarchar(4000)
Declare @ParamDefinition AS NVarchar(2000)

Hi -
This is a newbie question. For some reason when I view the contents of tables I have created on my SQL Server (version 7) database, the sort buttons in the "Data in Table" window are grayed out.
Do I need more permissions? How do I fix this?
Thanks.
Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.
