Ignoring A Column In During DTS

Nov 1, 2004

I'm importing from an Excel spreadsheet into an SQL Table using DTS.

Two things:

1. I don't want anything imported into Column 1 of the table as this has been designed to automatically increment (creating a primary key). I haven't worked out how to do this.

2. How can I get the DTS package to ignore the top 2 rows of the Excel spreadsheet (header information)?

An answer to one will be great but both will be tremendous!!

Query Ignoring Filter?

Feb 29, 2008

All,

So I have this query that is ignoring my date filter and for the life of me I can't figure out why. Was hoping some guru could explain it to me. Here goes:

This query ignores my date filter:

SELECT
rcv.Name AS MachineName,
r.JobId,
j.Name AS JobName,
r.CreateTime AS JCreateTime,
rsv.Name AS JResultStatus,
rpv.Path + rpv.Name AS ResourcePool,
rcvv.ResourceConfigurationVal AS Dimension

FROM
dbo.Result_View AS r
INNER JOIN dbo.ResourceConfiguration_View AS rcv ON r.ResourceConfigurationId = rcv.Id
INNER JOIN dbo.Job_View AS j ON r.JobId = j.Id
INNER JOIN dbo.ResultStatus_View AS rsv ON r.ResultStatusId = rsv.Id
INNER JOIN dbo.Resource_View AS rv ON rcv.ResourceId = rv.Id
INNER JOIN dbo.ResourcePool_View AS rpv ON rv.ResourcePoolId = rpv.Id
RIGHT JOIN dbo.ResourceConfigurationValue_View AS rcvv ON rv.LatestResourceConfigurationId = rcvv.ResourceConfigurationId
LEFT JOIN dbo.Dimension_View AS d ON rcvv.DimensionId = d.Id

WHERE
(r.CreateTime > DATEADD(DAY, -15, GETDATE()))
AND
(rcv.Name LIKE 'PNP%')
AND
(d.Id = 859)
OR
(d.Id = 860)

If I comment out the last two joins and associated select/filters, all of the sudden the date filter works again. From everything I have read, the joins are supposed to be processed BEFORE the filters are applied in the virtual table. My DB goes back a number of years and contains millions of records. W/O the date filter, the query takes a very, very long time to run.

Any ideas on why this would happen?

Thanks,

Allen

Views Ignoring Order By Clause

Sep 7, 2007

I have just transferred my site to a new server with SBS R2 Premium, so the site's database changed from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.   I find that searches are now returning results in random order, even though they use a view with an Order By clause to force the order I want.
I find that the results are unordered when I test the view with Management Studio, so the issue is unrelated to my VB/ASP Net code.
Using my SQL update tool (SQL Compare, from Redgate) I find that there are no differences in the views, or the underlying tables.
Using Management Studio to test a number of views, I find that I have a general problem with all views.  For example, one of the simpler views is simply a selection of fields from one table, with an Order By clause on the tables primary key: -       SELECT     TOP (100) PERCENT GDQid, GDQUser, GDQGED, GDQOption, gdqTotalLines, GDQTotalIndi, GDQRestart, GDQCheckpointMessage,                             GDQStarted, GDQFinished, gdqCheckpointRecordCountr       FROM         dbo.GEDQueue       ORDER BY GDQid DESC
If I right-click the view (from Management Studio's Object Explorer pane), select Design from the menu to show the view's design, and then click the Execute SQL icon, the view's results are displayed perfectly, in descending order of GDQid.  However, if I select "Open View" the view's results are displayed out of order.
When I do this with the SQL 2000 database, both Design/Execute and Open View correctly display the data in the correct order.
Is there something that I should check in the SQL 2005 installation - some option that has been set incorrectly?
Regards, Robert Barnes

SqlDataSource Select Is Ignoring My Filter

Sep 25, 2007

I am using the SqlDataSource to access the dB from my page. Basically this is what I do with it ds.SelectParameters.Clear();
ds.SelectParameters("Id", TypeCode.Int32, id.ToString());

DataSourceSelectArguments dssa = new DataSourceSelectArguments();
dssa.MaximumRows = 1;
dssa.AddSupportedCapabilities(DataSourceCapabilities.Page);

DataView dv = (DataView)ds.Select(dssa);
if (dv.Count > 0)
{
// collect the information
string title = (string)dv[index].Row.ItemArray[0];
}
And the SelectCommand attribute of the SqlDataSource is set in design mode to "SELECT * from vw_Items ORDER BY Category".
So, since I am trying to retrieve just the item with the given Id I was expecting just one record but when I step through I see that the data view has a count of 9 (all records in the table) !!!
What am I doing wrong here? why can't it return just one? as per the select statement which after adding the parameter should be something like "SELECT * FROM vw_Items WHERE ID = 5 ORDER BY Category

Ignoring A Parameter Value In A Stored Procedure

Jun 2, 2006

If you have a table called Person and has ID, Age, Gender and Name. And you have a stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetName]@Age TINYINT,@Gender TINYINTASBEGIN    SELECT Name FROM Person   WHERE Age = @Age AND Gender = @Gender END
You want some times to send @Age as null to get all ages (or in other words, you are not concerned with the age) or @Gender as null to get all genders.
A way to do that is to build your query string dynamically and execute it with EXEC command. However, this is a bad solution because you are losing most of the SP benefits and writting longer and more complicated procedures, specially that you have a lot of parameters!
Another solution that I thought of is having your select like this:    SELECT Name FROM Person   WHERE Age = ISNULL(@Age,Age) AND Gender = ISNULL(@Gender, Gender)
However, I noticed that when the value of the column is NULL, you will get false results, obviously because you are using = operator in comparing a value with null while you should be using IS operator, so this method did not work.
I am wondering if any one has a good solution for this.

Search By Ignoring Special Characters

Dec 14, 2011

In our schools we have a number of East-European, Turkish, Scandinavian, ... students. Their names contain "special" characters, like Ö, Ü, Ø, ... Our users want to be able to search for student names without having to enter those special characters. Most often they don't know the exact spelling of the names and they get "no match found" messages as a result.

They want to have persons with the name Ösgür, Osgueld, ... in the result set after entering "osgu" in the search field.

What is the best way to do this? I was thinking about using another collation near the LIKE, but I don't know if that would work and how it should be done. The Database collation is Latin1_General_CI_AS.

Order By Ignoring The Hyphen Character

Sep 24, 2007

Hi,
I'm using the following SQL script to return a list of part number and the order is not what I expect. Perhaps this is a collation problem but I have no idea where to look to modify that.

Thanks in advance, John
select part from transactions T where (T.transdate between '20070701' and '20070705') and
(T.transtype = 'ISSU' or T.transtype = 'RTRN') order by part


Here is the beginning of the Transactions table create script


CREATE TABLE [Transactions] (
[RecNo] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
[Part] [nvarchar] (30) NOT NULL ,
[TransDate] [nvarchar] (8) NOT NULL ,
[TransType] [nvarchar] (4) NOT NULL ,
[FromLoc] [nvarchar] (10) ,


The 'Part' column is an alphanumeric field. The problem I am having is that the
Order By seems to ignore the hyphen character '-' when the returned rows
are ordered by the Part (which can contain hyphens in any column).

Here is an example of what I get.

130909N9
130909N9
130909N9
1-480698-0 * These two should not be here
1-480699-0 *
15-423
164-07700
164-07700
164-07700
1683


I was expecting this ( and I get this in and older database ).

068-03000
068-03000
06A19956
074-03200
077-367-0
08DU08
1-480698-0 * These should be here eariler in the data
1-480699-0

Files Ignoring Permission Inheritence

Feb 29, 2008

Hi,

This may be a silly question out of ignorance, but I'm working in an environment where I am a DBA for a server, but I'm not a local admin on the windows server for the first time, so sorry if it is

Anyway, I have set up some traces that are writing to a file stored in a directory I have full control on. However, the trace files themselves are not inheriting the folder permissions, even though the folder is configured to do so. The only logins with access are the Local System account, the SQL Server service account local group, and the local administrators group.

Is this something that SQL Server does on its own, or would this have to be something the system admins have set up with group policy or something? If its SQL Server, is there some configuration setting I can change to get it to stop doing that so I can stop bugging the admins to give me access every time I run a trace?

Thanks,

Larry

Delete From A Table Ignoring A Foreign Key

Dec 6, 2007

Hi,

I am looking to delete a single row from a relatively small table. Unfortunately, there is a foreign key relationship between this table and a much much larger table. The checking of this foreign key when I am deleting this row seems to significantly impact the performance of the operation. Previously there was an index on this larger table that helped this query run. This index has been dropped to improve the performance of a more frequently executed operation.

Is there a way I can use a hint or something to stop SQL checking this foreign key when deleting the row? I am certain that there are no associated rows in the larger table.

I have read elsewhere that I could disable the foreign key, perform the delete, then enable the foreign key. This delete statement is not a one off process and could happen in the normal operation of the application so I don't really know what the implications of doing this are.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Rich

SQL Query Ignoring Null Values In Joins-- Help

Aug 2, 2006

I would like to populate a grid with data from 2 different tables.
Table1: [PK]id(int), name(nvarchar), areaID(int)
Table2: [PK][FK]areaID(int), areaDescription(nvarchar)

My cerrent query is:
SELECT Table1.id, Table1.name, Table2.areaDescription FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.areaID = Table2.areaID

However, sometimes the areaID in Table1 will only be populated at a later stage and therefore will be NULL in Table1. Table2 is used as a lookup table when inserting into Table1. This query therefore ommits any records in Table1 which do not have an areaID. I would like to view ALL records(ones without an areaID as well) as they would be populated in the grid and selected to be updated on web forms because they are incomplete and then subsequently assigned an areaID.

Any help with this query would be much appreciated...

I"m trying to use a BULK INSERT command to insert data into a table from a file. There is a UNIQUE Index that is being violated and the BULK INSERT fails.

I do not want to drop or disable the index, however, i also do not want to load 'duplicate' records so i keep the CHECK_CONSTRAINTS parameter.

Average Value Total Dynamic Ignoring Zeros

Nov 25, 2013

I have this data returning from a query:

Procedure Intermediate New Old Total avg
Proc1 6 0 0 6 2.000000

Proc3 29 0 0 29 9.666666
Proc4 16 0 0 16 5.333333

And I want to dynamically calculate the average rather than divide the total by the number of columns every time, I want to divide only by the number of non zero values per row for intermediate, new and old. So row 1 average would just be itself = 6, row 2 would be 74+13+87/3 etc.

;with cte as
(
select
f.Procedure,
SUM(case when f.old_new = 'O' then f.Value else 0 end) "Intermediate",
SUM(case when f.old_new = 'Y' then f.Value else 0 end) "New",
SUM(case when f.old_new = 'N' then f.Value else 0 end) "Old"

Ignoring NULL Values In LOOKUP Transformation.

Jun 28, 2006

Hi,

Can you please tell me the way to configure the LOOK UP transformation so that it will ignore all the null values ? I want to configure a Look up component for the column "Col1" as follows

All the NULL values of Col1 should not be considered for look-up process. They should be passed to the downstream component as valid rows.
All NOT NULL values of Col1 should be processed by the Look up component.
If there is no matching value present for any NOT NULL value of Col1 then it should be directed to error output.

Analysis Services - Calculated Member Ignoring Decimal

Feb 1, 2006

Hello,

I have a calculated member that composed of dividing two other calculated members. The calculation is incorrect and is ignoring the decimal places in both of the source measures of the equation.

Example:

Calculated Member 1 = 300.01
Calculated Member 2 = 10.25
Calculated Member 3 = (CM1 / CM2 ) = 30 INCORRECT!!!
Answer should be = 29.269

The MDX that I am using is as follows:

Calculated Member 1 (Booked Amount YTD):
Sum(PeriodsToDate([Fiscal].[Date].[Fiscal Year]),[OH Booked Amount])

Calculated Member 2 (Units YTD)
Sum(PeriodsToDate([Fiscal].[Date].[Fiscal Year]),[OH Units])

Calculated Member 3 (Booked Amount / Unit)
Measures.[Booked Amount YTD] / Measures.[Units YTD]

This seems like a fairly common and straight forward type of calculation, taking the YTD amount / YTD units to come up with YTD amount per unit. When I create a calculated member with the hardcoded values of 30.01 / 10.25 I get the correct answer of 29.269. Am I missing something with formatting? Is this a bug in Analysis Services?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Flat File Comma Delimited Ignoring Quotes

Dec 27, 2007



hi im using the import export wizard to import a file where my recoreds are comma delimited but when i HAVE to use a comma im using quotes to escape

"CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=aboneng,DC=local",user,Administrator,Built-in account for administering the computer/domain,"CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=aboneng,DC=local",4,20050421014154.0Z,20060518065932.0Z,

with this example

CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=aboneng,DC=local === should be the first column
user, ==== the second column
Administrator === third and so forth.

i thought it was a standard to use quotes when escaping your delimiter but sql is bringing in the records as comma delimited as normal is there anyway around this?

Splitting A String By A Delimiter, But Ignoring Multiple Delimiters

Oct 22, 2007

Hi,

I have a function which takes a string and a delimter. It then splits the string by the delimter and returns a table of resultant strings:


CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[vs_SplitTags] (@sep char(1), @s varchar(512))

RETURNS table

AS

RETURN (

WITH Pieces(pn, start, stop) AS

(

SELECT 1, 1, CHARINDEX(@sep, @s)

UNION ALL

SELECT pn + 1, stop + 1, CHARINDEX(@sep, @s, stop + 1)

FROM Pieces

WHERE stop > 0

)

SELECT pn,

SUBSTRING(@s, start, CASE WHEN stop > 0 THEN stop-start ELSE 512 END) AS s

FROM Pieces

)




This works very well, other than instances of the delimter are, themselves, considered to be results. For example:

SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', 'foo bar') AS result
returns:
pn s
1 foo
2 bar


which is exactly the result I would want.

However,
SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', ' foo bar ') AS result -- There are spaces before 'foo' and after 'bar'
returns
pn s
1
2 foo
3 bar
4

And
SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', 'foo bar') AS result -- There are two spaces between 'foo' and 'bar'
returns
pn s
1 foo
2
3
4 bar


I want the function to ignore whitespace altogether, be it a single space or multiple spaces. Other than to delimit the boundries between words, of course.

In other words, all three examples above should produce the same result:
pn s
1 foo
2 bar

How can I do this? Any thoughts much appreciated...

SQL Server 2008 :: Execution Plan Ignoring Index Insisting On Key Lookup

I have query with an expensive Key Lookup on a joined table. The predicate is the column that I'm joining on, and the output list contains two columns from the joined table.

I've created a basic non-clustered index covering the predicate column and include-ing the two output columns. However, the execution plan ignores this, and insists on using the primary key of the joined table to do the expensive key lookup. I've tried adding the included columns to the index directly and there's no change. I've also tried running dbcc freeproccache and no change.

Alter Table Add Column - How Do You Add A Column After Say The Second Column

Jul 11, 2007



When you use "Alter Table add Column", it adds the column to the end of the list of fields.



How do you insert the new column to position number 2 for instance given that you may have more than 2 columns?



Create table T1 ( a varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20))



Alter table add column x varchar(20)

so that the resulting table is

T1 a varchar(20), x varchar(20), b varchar(20), c varchar(20)



Can this be done programmatically?
