I want to know the equivalent of the Oracle translate function in SQL Server.
eg : select translate('entertain', 'et', 'ab') from dual.
I tried the SQL Server Replace function , but it replaces only one character or a sequence of character and not each occurrence of each of the specified characters given in the second argument i.e 'et'.
Please let me know if there is some other equivalent function in SQL Server

Hi, I have this oracle query with outer join situation. how can i convert it into sql server query.
SELECT distinct ae.dB_CONTRACT,CP.PC_CODE,BID_ITEM.ITEM_NO, 'N',BID_ITEM.PRICE_WORDS,OFF_ITEM.DESCPT, OFF_ITEM.UNITS,OFF_ITEM.TYPE_ITEM, PRES_ITEM.RET_PERC FROM BID_TOTAL,BID_ITEM,OFF_ITEM,PRES_ITEM, AE_CONTRACT AE, CONTRACT_PC CP WHERE RANK_NUMB = 1 AND BID_TOTAL.DB_CONTRACT = 37044 AND BID_TOTAL.DB_CONTRACT = BID_ITEM.DB_CONTRACT AND BID_TOTAL.BID_VENDOR = BID_ITEM.BID_VENDOR AND BID_ITEM.DB_CONTRACT = OFF_ITEM.DB_CONTRACT AND BID_ITEM.ITEM_NO = OFF_ITEM.ITEM_NO AND OFF_ITEM.ITEM_NO = PRES_ITEM.ITEM_NO (+) AND AE.DB_CONTRACT=BID_TOTAL.DB_cONTRACT AND CP.DB_CONTRACT = AE.DB_CONTRACT AND CP.pc_code = 1
I have to run a query to give a column a value based on a time range. Can Iuse DECODE?select decode(trans_date, trans_date>='01-Jul-2002' andtrans_date<='30-Jun-2003','Fiscal2002', .....) as fiscal,from. . .where. . .
HI, Is there any way to replicate the decode function in SQL Server 7.0? I have a problem where I have to write a query such that if the value in a column is '0' , I need to output it as 'No' and if it is '1', I need to output it as 'Yes'. An example of my problem is as follows:
select col_1+","+(value 'No' if col_2='0' and 'Yes' if col_2='1')+ ","+col_3+...........
I appreciate your help in advance. thanks, Sravan.
hi i have a view in oracle. in that i am using decode function. same query i want to write it in sqlserver. what it is the alternate to decode.
this is a cross tab query
SELECT code, SUM(DECODE(field1, 4, Present_Value, 0)) AS c1, SUM(DECODE(field1, 5, Present_Value, 0)) AS c2, SUM(DECODE(field1, 6, Present_Value, 0)) AS c3,SUM(DECODE(field1, 9, Present_Value, 0)) AS c4 FROM (SELECT field1,Code, Present_Value FROM table1) DERIVEDTBL GROUP BY code
FROM DOWNTIME_WEB WHERE DOWNTIME_WEB.TIMESTAMP>= (SELECT PRODN_SHIFT.START_DATIME FROM PRODN_SHIFT WHERE PRODN_SHIFT.START_DATIME <=sysdate AND PRODN_SHIFT.END_DATIME > sysdate) AND TRIM(DOWNTIME_WEB.STATUS_TEXT) = 'STOPPED' AND TRIM(DOWNTIME_WEB.WORK_CTR_NAME) = 'PACK2' ORDER BY DOWNTIME_WEB.EVENT_DUR
I have tried to put the DECODE etc into the GROUP BY statement but I get an error - " not a valid GROUP BY clause"
Secondly, is there a way of modifying value in field A based on the value in field B
Erroneous example follows - in an effort to explain what I want to do (from above):
DECODE(PRIM_REASN,'',(DECODE(EVENT_DUR,<200,"Low",>200,"High"),PRIM_REASN) ie:If PRIM_REASN is null I want EVENT_DUR to be tested to determine the new value for PRIM_REASN. Except that tthe above won't work and I don't know what the right function/argument should be..
This is my first foray into SQL server, I am trying to migrate some access queries to work with web services and hence Xcelsius.
I have a question about the "Decode" funktion. is it only avaiable in Oracle? The reason for my question is that I need to SELECT a colum in a table based on a int value. So if the uservalue is lower then that take that colum, lower then that take colum...etc.
Can I use decode? or/and is there better funktion (I'm using MS SQL 2005)
how can I write decode function in sql such that i have a feild in my table called "file type" based on its content i want to pass a value to sql datasource such that if file type = doc i want to pass "~/Images/ico_filetype_10.gif" an so on
I am a novice to SQL Server, so this is probably a really easy problemto fix. I'm translating an Oracle query and need to change the'decode' to something compatible. Everything I've read points me tousing 'case' but no matter how I write it I can't get it to work andget a syntax error. Suggestions?select SYST CTR, isnull(substring(CD_A, 1, 3), ' ') RESCODE, DES DESCRIPTION, decode (substring(CD_A, 1, 3), CODE,PRICE,0) UNIT_PRICE, count (distinct OR_NO) QTYW

Can anyone help me translate this statement from using the legacyouter joins to the SQL-92 standards?Select CA.* From Customer C, Shipper S, Customer_Order CO,Cust_Address CA Where CA.Customer_ID =* CO.Customer_IDand CA.Addr_No =* isnull(S.Ship_To_Addr_No,CO.Ship_To_Addr_No)and C.ID = CO.Customer_IDand (S.Shipped_Date between '1/1/2003' and '12/31/2003')Try as I may, I simply can't find a working left, right, or full outerjoin statement that would give me the same results as the abovestatement gives. I thought this was suppose to work but don't knowwhy it doesn't. Anybody care to try or perhaps tell me why thestatement below doesn't work:Select CA.* From Customer C, ((Customer_Order CO left outer joinCust_Address CA on CA.Customer_ID = CO.Customer_ID) left outer joinShipper S on CA.Addr_No =isnull(S.Ship_To_Addr_No,CO.Ship_To_Addr_No)) Where C.ID =CO.Customer_IDand (S.Shipped_Date between '1/1/2003' and '12/31/2003')Thanks,Tony
We're trying to migrate a varchar field from Sql2k to varbinary in a sql25k through a dtsx package. We get an error which tell us: "data will be lost".
I€™m new to this forum and my knowledge about RDL is very limited. We are developing software localization tools and some of our customers have requested a solution to translate RDL files.
Our tool has a generic XML parser so I reviewed the RDL documentation but didn€™t found any information about which XML elements do have translatable content. If there anyone who knows this or is there any documentation around describing which elements must be translated?
I also saw some proposals regarding the internationalization of RDL files. It seems that the proposed solutions were designed for developers and not for professional translators. In an environment where you have to translate several hundreds of RDL files into let€™s say 20 languages you can€™t expect that translators start to code RDL files. Are there any other approaches that can be used for a more efficient translation of RDL files?
Is it possible to translate a DTSX/XML file into VB.Net or C# code, like you can do with a WSDL file? If so, is there a SSIS utility or third party available? Thank you.
I have an alphanumeic string as one of the column values.I want to get numeic value out of the string. I was planning on translating all the characters of the alphanumeric sting to spaces and then using ltrim and rtrim on it should give me the required numeric sring.But there is no translate function in sql server
Example: abcd123xy 123 xyz45 45
Can someone provide me a way to get the numeric value out of the strng.
SERIALNO SUM of MIN SUM of MAX 1111 50 10 2222 9 11 For each SERIALNO I want to sum the AMOUNT, spliting the columns into 2 based on TYPE There are only ever 2 values for TYPE for eachs serial no. I don;t need to track the value of TYPE. I assume you would use a MIN & MAX function but Im not sure how to write this into a view.
I have some Named Sets that I want to translate. I have done exactly the same way as with the Calculated Members but the Sets don´t use the translations? Any ide why?
I have a requirement to do a data migration work for a Japanese client. The problem is I don't know Japanese and the client SME does not know English. So, my requirement is, I should be able to create a SSIS package in English and then should be able to compile or translate it into Japanese so that my Japanese SME can understand the package. Is it possible to do? If so, how can I do it?
