I Need Help Coding A Query In SQL? (filtering Data
May 17, 2006
I have a big presentation tomorrow and I have a query I'm trying to
make a little more presentable. query text itself formatted (filtering data)
Tables:
--tpeople
--tsynclog
The query:
select Firstname+' '+Lastname as [FirstName LastName],synctime as
[Nestle synctime],sum(DurationInMinutes)
from tpeople
join tsynclog on people_id = id
where synctime > '2006-05-05'
group by
tpeople.FirstName,tsynclog.people_id,tpeople.LastName,tsynclog.SyncTime
having sum(DurationInMinutes) > 100
order by synctime desc
As you can see I need some alias added and maybe the whole thing formatted a little
different. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Hi. I'm looking at a problem and I can't find any solution short ofcoding.I have a pool of, say, 1000 PINS. I have 7 tables (buckets). Any ofthe 1000 PINS can be in 0, 1, 2, or... or all 7 buckets. So let's saythat-bucket A has 100 PINS-bucket B has 300 PINS-bucket C has 600 PINS-bucket D has 200 PINS-bucket E has 500 PINS-bucket F has 350 PINS-bucket G has 700 PINSI need to know, for each PIN, the number of buckets (tables) itbelongs to, and which ones, i.e:- PIN 1 belongs to A, C, D, so it belongs to 3 buckets- PIN 2 belongs to A, C, D, F, so it belongs to 4 buckets- PIN 3 belongs to A, so it belongs to 1 bucket- PIN 4 belongs to A, B, C, D, G, so it belongs to 5 buckets- PIN 5 belongs to ..., so it belongs to 0 bucketsetc, etcWhat would be the simplest way to achieve that, please ?Thank you very muchAlex.

I am writing a query to list all users in 2 countries but exclude users which their name starts with _inactive_5#4$66899, holder_....
I wrote
Select position, subsidiaryName from position where subsidiaryname = 'country one' OR subsidiaryname= 'country 2'
I get a result but there are some names which are fake accounts
eg. names start with inactive_#@$%&*ijkgfhg
or with holder_uhgfjgj
how can I do write into the query so that only the proper names without the rows that are fake showing up. In other words i want all results for those 2 countries except ones starting with inactive or with holder......?
I do not want results with combinations like this:
d.workphone is null and m.workphone = '0'
m.workphone is null and d.workphone = '0'
but my query below still brining in records like this, how can I fix this:
select m.number, m.workphone as master_workphone, d.workphone as debtor_workphone
FROM master m
INNER JOIN debtors d ON d.number = m.number
where (d.workphone <> m.workphone) AND NOT (d.workphone = '' AND m.workphone = '') AND NOT ((d.workphone = '0' AND m.workphone = '') OR (d.workphone = '' AND m.workphone = '0'))
I am new to SQL,I wrting a query which I will at the later stage create a report but my query is creating duplicate records,I have tried the group by and the sub selects but this still bring all uneccessary columns I do not need,Â
I have a query that goesÂ
Select name Date from date from date to summary Estimated value
I know in this database i only have 1 record containing that information but immediately  when i ass the estimated value field a lot of duplicate,I have tried using group by the same thing happens,or even when i tried having count then all the columns disappear.
Me any my team are soon going to work on a performance critical application. My team has some experience of writing SQL, however we have not done performance oriented coding.
I am looking for a comphrehensive document which lists information for writing good SQL with performance. Please guide if there is such a document or web site.
Why is Select * from [Merchandise] where [Product Name] like '[ABCD]%'the same as Select * from [Merchandise] where [Product Name] between 'A' and 'D'I can run Select * from [Merchandise] where [Product Name] like 'A%'and get Products that start with the letter "A" but they don't show up when I try to get all "A","B","C","D" Products.
Our current method of limiting what data a user can see is implemented solely through our Web based business intelligence tools. No filtering is enabled at the database level. This has become somewhat cumbersome as security is tied exclusively to these tools. The tools use one common logon to access the underlying database.
I would like to implement security at the database level (SQL Server 2000) and thereby produce a more flexible/portable solution. I was thinking of setting up individual database accounts for each user and then tying these into our company structure table by passing system_user result to a constraint.
For example System User name 'Store 2' would reference Store '2' in the structure table. Depending on the user, different columns will need to be referenced to filter the rows. A store user would be validated against the store column, an Area Manager user would be validated against the Area Manager column and Head Office users would not be valiadated at all i.e. they are not filtered.
1) What is the best method to implement such a look up. Can or should I use Check constraints for such a solution?
2) Would a UDF be useful?
Any ideas on the best approach to take would be greatly appereciated.
Hi, I have following query. I want to insert the value MBR_COV_EFF_DATE to table fixed_MM if the function dbo.CheckTheDate2 returns correct date and if it returns NULL I want to insert it on error_MM table. How can I do this?
select dbo.CheckTheDate2(MBR_COV_EFF_DATE,'MBR_COV_EFF_DATE') AS MBR_COV_EFF_DATE from [unfixed_MM]
Expression: =Fields!PRACTICE_ID.Value Operator: = Value: 20 and get this error: The comparison failed. Check the data type returned by filter expression.
Practice_id has int data type. How else can I check the data type returned by filter expression?
I tried to filter on table level the same way, and get the same error. Could anybody help, please, to make it work?
I have a database of automobiles. I have many many columns, it is blank of course until I can start filling it with information. I will have four main rows. Yearnum, Make, Model, and VehicleStyle columns I will use Honda Accord as an example. Honda has made the Accord since probably the 80's I know that if I SELECT yearnum FROM YearNum ORDER BY yearnum
I am using C++ Builder too.. it will put all my years in order, in a combo box. But I believe it will also have duplicates, like for example They may have made a 1995 Honda Accord and then made a 1995 Honda accord LS which may have different wiring colors and speakers sizes than the regular accord. Is there anyway to filter out multiple years, so I could just have the regular order of years?

Hi,I have three dropdown lists branch, month & year. Based on these I need to retrieve data in my Datagrid.I have written the following SQL statement & code in my Refreshgrid(): SqlCmd.CommandText = " SELECT * " SqlCmd.CommandText += " FROM HSECData" SqlCmd.CommandText += " where branchno=" &Branchno SqlCmd.CommandText += " And yearno=" &YearNo SqlCmd.CommandText += " And monthno=" &monthNoThis is working fine, initially the datagrid is empty and then displays data when I select say, branch- Melbourne, Year-2005, Month-October and other exisiting combinations.The problem I am stuck at is when the page loads, initially I want all the data to be displayed in datagrid, i.e. for 'All' branches, 'All' years and 'All' months and then when I select combinations of these dropwdown lists as above the data should be filtered and displayed in those selected combinations. but as of now I get and empty datagrid when I select 'All' from these 3 drop down lists or when the page opens the first time.Can someone kindly guide me with the correct SQL cinstruct to achieve both the requirements?Thanks,Aartee.P.S. I am sorry if I have posted this question in a wrong category in the forum, I was unsure whether I should post it in Datagrid category or SQL server category, I thought this was my best bet.My aplogies.
I have a database table which is growing 100,000 recs per day. It has data from 06/01/1999 to current. I need to keep data only from 08/01/1999. I BCP'd out around more than 10 million rows(entire table) out into an OS flat file. Now I need to BCP in rows only after 08/01/1999. How do I filter those rows during BCP'ing in, or is there a way of doing it while BCP'ing out. The table has a field named proc_date smalldatetime(4) NOT NULL.
Hello,I have a simple table containing adresses.A sample view of the table isid name city--------------------------------100 Meier New York101 Meier Tokyo110 Olson Amsterdam110 Olson Dublin111 Paul Berlin...The view is ordered by (name,city)Now my problem:I want to see only the second half of the viewstarting from "Olson" in "Dublin"Using the constraintwhere (name>="Olson") and (city>="Dublin")does not the right thing. It eliminates i.e. row 111.The only idea I have is to concatenate the fields tosimulate the compound index to be able to dowhere name+"~"+city>="Olson~Dublin"not to forget to struggle with null fields to getthe right results. This slows down the simple querydramatically.This seems to be a complicated solution for a simpleproblem, given the fact, that the index is alreadyavailable at the server.Does anyone has an idea or suggestion?-Hubert
I have a stored procedure, which returns a list of results/data.
Some of that data includes a count.
What I would like is to filter the data where we see all the count data that has 0 or all the count data greater than zero.
Now it is entirely possibly for me to go back to the stored procedure and amend it so that that is entirely possible, however i was wondering if it was also possible to produce this by filtering data at the dataset.
I provide a filter at the datset by clicking on dataset and then filters and then the expression for the field for the search count and having a parameter that provides the value.
Now it is straightforward if i just want to show all results where the searchcount = 0.
The problem lies where i want to show all results that have a searchcount > 0. The problem being it only allows me to choose one operator = or >, not a combination of both, meaning I cannot have the option to have either results.
select distinct  bl_rec_ref  ,freq_cd  from hgmprty1 where(bl_rec_ref is not null and bl_rec_ref not like '%SCH%')
That produces the following output (part shown)
However what I need to show is only bl_rec_ref values where there is no corresponding freq_cd of QTLY.
Looking at the example data above Rows 45 and 46 have the same bl_rec_ref value with a MTHLY and a QTLY value in freq_cd so therefore I don't want this to appear in my output. Similarly with Rows 47 and 48 were the bl_rec_ref has both QTLY and MTHLY values so again should be excluded.
However looking at Rows 51 to 55 which has a bl_rec_ref only showing once for each value of MTHLY and no value for QTLY so these Rows are required in the output.
I can't find any info on what the 'IN' operator does when filtering data. What's the syntax? I'm hoping this operator will behave similar to the IN operator in sql. I want to pass in 1 or more values that I'd like my data filtered by. If I say <field> IN <single value> it works, but if I say <field> IN <value1>,<value2> I get back nothing at all. Any claification on the use of this operator and the correct syntax for my value list would be greatly appreciated!!
I have to filter my some of the data using below sql
select * from dbo.tmp_date where issue_dt <'042015' but its not filtering out because of NVARCHAR an if suppose i used datatype to int its removing 0 (zero) from the begning
My data is in formate MMYYYY formate
CREATE TABLE dbo.tmp_date (issue_dt NVARCHAR(10)); INSERT INTO dbo.tmp_date (issue_dt) SELECT '062012' UNION SELECT '062079' UNION SELECT '062015' UNION SELECT '062014' GO select * from dbo.tmp_date where issue_dt <'042015' go
We are pulling data from a sharepoint list and we have created a report using business development studio in sql 2005 and have created a table with data that we want to display. We are trying to filter this data so that we can get the report to show entries for the day or for a week, but im not sure how to achieve this? Thanks in advance.
I have what at first site should be a simple reporting services issue but cannot resolve:-
I have a complex report comprising over 90 pages of various sections but when analysed in detail , 80% of it follows a simple pattern i.e. it comprises around 100 instances of the same sub-report bound to the same data source BUT grouped and filtered on different groupings and filter values.
The pattern is as follows:-
Each sub-report instance is bound to an SSAS cube which has fields L1, L2...L7
Each sub-report instance groups the data dynamically by one or more groups G1,G2..G7, the actual fields to be used being defined by the parent report (i.e. one instance may group by fields L7, L3, L4, another by L2,L3 etc)
Each sub-report instance has up to 7 filters defined (F1..F7) may filter the data i.e. the parent may pass a filter stipulating that L7="A", L3="B". To do this, the parent sets filter parameters F7="A" and F3="B"
The approach I have adopted is to set up parameters in the sub-report for dynamically grouping the data i.e. the sub-report has 7 parameters defined G1..G7 and the parent report populates G1..G7 with the grouping breakdown required for any given instance. This works fine!!!!
However what I am trying to do is prevent each sub-report performing major round trips to the underlying cube for each sub-report instance by specifying the filter as part of the MDX query by defining the 7 filter parameters as query parameters. (I could of course not filter the query and place the filter in the report but this would almost certainly lead to performance issues). Instead what I am struggling to do is to create the MDX query in such a way that when a filter is not supplied by the parent, the MDX query does not filter the data.
Can anyone advise on this. I guess my question is more of an MDX question than a reporting services one.
Hello, I am trying to use a boolean parameter to filter data in a table, but there is something I am missing.
Basically I want something like this: I have a boolean parameter, "EP", and I have a filter set on my table as:
Expression Operator Value =Fields!REFERRAL_SOURCE.Value = IIF (Parameters!EP.Value, "1297", ????)
Using the filter tab, I can't specify an expression for the 'Operator' so I was trying to work it out using either '=' or 'like'. What needs to go into the ???? in order for the referral source to be "not 1297" (i.e. the inverse of the filter)?
Or, am I completely missing an easy way to do this?
How I am using a CASE statement within a WHERE clause to filter data:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetSomeStuff @filter1 varchar(100) = '', @filter2 varchar(100) = '' AS BEGIN SELECT
[Code] .
What I want, is to be able to pass in a single value to filter the table, or if I pass in (at the moment a blank) for no filter to be applied to the table.
Is this a good way to accomplish that, or is there a better way? Also, down the line I'm probably going to want to have multiple filter items for a single filter, what would be the best way to implement that?
We have set up reporting in sql 2005 so that we can report from a MOSS 2007 list. At the moment the report is created with all the data from within the list. How could i create a filters so that the user can generate a report by name and date?
I am using SQL 2005. I have a SELECT query in a stored proc with 3 parameters: @subaccount,@numDaysCutoff,@numDaysPcts. The proc needs to be modified to return data when subaccount values are any of these:
FRRIJ FRRIC FRMM ROBECO FRJV MAIL FRUKV FRICE
Currently I use a WHERE condition and am able to get data correctly. However, for a NULL value I should get everything including those not in the above list. Should I use CASE statement instead? How?
