DB Engine :: BCP Output Is Performing Ascending Sort Based On Values Of First Column
Jun 24, 2015As bcp does not allow for the column names to be included; I have developed a method for providing the columns. The end result is that two Tables are required for each output; a "ColumnNames" table and the Table that contains the actual data; however the bcp command is sorting the data; why this is happening?
According to Microsoft, by default bcp will not apply any sorting unless specified.
Here is the command I am using to perform the bcp output: -
SET
@bcpCommand =(select
'bcp "SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.MIS001_BCPColumnNames UNION SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.voltemp" queryout '
+ @FilePath+'
-c -t -T')
EXEC
master..xp_cmdshell
@bcpCommand
This is the bcp topic I referred to [URL] ....

Dynamic Sort Column And Sort Order Not Working
Aug 7, 2007I 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
Master Data Services :: Filter Column Based On Other Column In Same Entity
May 12, 2015Using MDS 2012: I have an entity "XYZ_Entity". In "XYZ_Entity" entity I have 2 domain based Columns "DealerGroup" and "Dealer".
While inserting information into "XYZ_Entity" entity user can select the required dealer group from domain base Dealer Group values. Now for selecting Dealer he wants the dealers to be filter based on selected dealer group and he can select from the filtered list. reason to do that is he don't want to go through thousands of dealers and select an incorrect one.
Is it possible, if yes then how?

SQL Server 2008 :: Function To Replace Data In A Column With X Based On LEN Of Data
Sep 4, 2015I need to create a function that replaces the data in a column with an 'X' based on the LEN of the data in the column. I created one that does a replacement, but it fills the column based on the max data length, and not the current length of the string or integer. An example of what I'm trying to accomplish.
Original data in a varchar(30) column:
thisisavalue
thisisanothervalue
thisisanothervalueagain
shortval
replaced with
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxx
My current function is replacing the data like this:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Getting Data Based On Ordinal Position Of The Column In The Table
Aug 30, 2007Hi
I am having a problem in auditing the column data in tables.My requirement is i have write a trigger which is capable of auditing the columns which are going to be added in the future also with out using dynamic SQL.is there any way to do so.
I feel if i can get the column data based on ordinal position then it is possible.
Can any body suggest.
My set Up is like this
I have a base_table to be audited.
I have a Audit_spec table which contains name of the table and columns to be audited.
And Audit table which actually captures the table name,column name ,old value and new value.
I have to audit only those columns in the Audit_spec spec.
If schema changes(Like new column added) happens to base_table and I want that column to be audited.with out any changes to my trigger code i should handle the newly added column ..
T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Pivot Data Based On Columns Value In Year Column
Jun 4, 2014I am trying to pivot data based on columns value in year column... but results are not showing up correctly. I want to see all columns after pivot.I want to Pivot based on year shown in the data but it can be dynamic as year can go for last 3 years
I am also using an inner join as i have two amount columns in my code and i want to show both amount columns for all displayed year.I am able to pivot but I need in output all the columns like this Id,MainDate, Year1,Year2,Year3(if any), AMT1 for YR1, AMT2 for Yr1, , AMT1 for YR2, AMT2 for Yr2, AMT1 for YR3, AMT2 for Yr3,
Here is some data:

--[dType] [char](2) NOT NULL,
--[dVersion] [char](2) NOT NULL,
--[Id] [char](25) NOT NULL,

Integration Services :: Merge Inner Join Gives Different Output Based On Sort Key?
Sep 23, 2015In the first image as can be seens i have 2 different data sources and then they are being joined using "Merge Inner Join". The "sort" is on BusinessEntityID column of Person table and "Sort1" is on "PersonID" of Customer table. The merge join of these 2 result in 19,119 rows.
On the other hand, if i use single data source and use a query with inner join on tables used in the first image (ie. 2 tables being used in 2 different data sources) as depicted in second image. Also, since merge cannot operate without SortKey i have defined TerritoryID as sort key in the advanced editor. The number of rows i get after this is "10,274". My select query was :
SELECT
P.BusinessEntityID,
P.PersonType,
P.Title,
P.FirstName,
P.MiddleName,
P.LastName,
P.Suffix,
C.TerritoryID
FROM stg.Person AS P
INNER JOIN stg.Customer AS C ON C.CustomerID = P.BusinessEntityID
ORDER BY C.TerritoryID;
According to me, it should have been the same as in first case i am using merge inner join and in second case i am using SELECT query with inner join. Upon drilling down i found that in the first case , my sort keys are BusinessEntityID and PersonID, if i modify this to CustomerID and BusinessEntityID as this is my join condition (in ithe inner join query shown above), i get the desired output. What i was wondering was, how the sort order change the Join Condition?
Column Based On Other Column (short Name Based On Name), When To Do The Transformation?
Oct 18, 2007Hi!
I am designing a dimension table which will include a short name column based on the (full) name column. For example say Product dimension where I will have ProductName and ProductShortName. ProductShortName will be the first 6 characters of ProductName. I could populate ProductShortName using:
Substring in the select when I select from the original system, e.g. SUBSTR(PRODUCT_NAME, 1, 6) AS ProductShortName
Create a derived column in the SSIS flow which does the same thing
Create the ProductShortName column as a computed column which uses substring on ProductName
Create a trigger that populates ProductShortName based on ProductName when a row is inserted or updated
Create a named calculation in the table in the Analysis Services project's data source view
Create a named query in the Analysis Services project's data source view
I usually use 1, and 5 or 6 would only be used if I only will create reports against the cubes. 3 seems easiest to maintain, so I am thinking about using that one, but maybe it is slow for the data flow as I imagine it must be something like using 4, or when is the column "created" at runtime, i.e. when the table is queried?
Which approach(es) do or would you use? Pros and cons?
Thanks!
Dynamiclly Remove Duplicate Rows From Results Table Based On Column Data?
Nov 30, 2007
I have a results table that was created from many different sources in SSIS. I have done calculations and created derived columns in it. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to remove duplicate rows from this table without first writing it to a temp sql table and then parsing through it to remove them.
each row has a like key in a column - I would like to remove like rows keeping specific columns in the resulting row based on the data in this key field.
Ideas?
Thanks,
Ad.

Can't Sort By Clicking Column Header In EM
Jan 18, 2001My boss wants to know why I can sort information in the Enterprise Manager by clicking the column headings but he can't; like in the Job window clicking status to sort the jobs by status so all of the 'executing' jobs are listed first. I said no problem, let's apply SP2 and that should do the trick. To my chagrin it did not solve the problem. I would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks!

Matrix Column Interactive Sort
Feb 27, 2008I looked around quite a bit but couldn't get around to the issue I've at hand.
I've a matrix report with one row group and one column group. I want to apply interactive sort so that when a user clicks on the column header based on the values in the column the report is rearranged.
The report shows:
Name 02/02/2008 01/31/2008
Test1 15 12
Test2 9 15
Now if the user clicks on 02/02/2008 then it will show
Name 02/02/2008 01/31/2008
Test2 9 15
Test1 15 12
And toggle if clicked again. Hope I'm clear.

Thanks in Advance.

Interactive Sort On Column Headers In Matrix
Dec 7, 2007Hi there,
I'm trying to implement Interactive Soring on the column headers in a matrix in a report. Is it actually possible to do this? I've read several internet posts and stories of implementing the Interactive Sorting in the upper-left corner of the matrix, but this is not what I want, I want to implement it on the column headers .
The goal I'm trying to achieve is to give the user the possibillity to click on a column header to sort the rows below in asc- or descending direction.
Please tell me if this is possible, because all my efforts have not been succesfull! If it's possible, please provide the solution to do this.
If you need more information, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks in advance,
