Imbedding A Select Statement Within An Update
Jul 23, 2005
I have the following list of fields in a table named call.
CallID, CallGroupID, PersonID, ParentID,
I have two records.
23, 45, John, Null
26, <Incorrect Value>, Jane, 23
Now, I'm wanting to set the CallGroupID of record two, to that of the
CallGroupID of record one.
This is what I came up with, but it doesn't work.
update call set CallGroupID = (Select CallGroupID from call where
CallID = ParentID) where ParentID is not null
As you know the Select statment I have embedded is trying to pull up a
list CallGroupIDs from records where the CallID = ParentID. What I
want it to do is pull up the CallGroupID of the record where the CallID
= ParentID.
The CallID is a unique field, so there is only one such record in the
table.
Any help?
Thanks

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

I have a table which I need to obtain data from but am having a problem with select statement.
Specifically, I have a table that has multiple records for a particular hostName where the name of the host is either a shortname (say "Larry") or a long name (say "Larry's").
I need to display only the long names (NOT THE SHORT NAME records with the similar hostName).
Select winsHostName, len(winsHostName) from winsData where winsClientIPAddress IN (SELECT winsClientIPAddress from winsData Group By winsClientIPAddress Having count(winsClientIpAddress) > 1) Order by winsHostName
Which returns data
Name Length
ATVDDR 6 ATVDDR1 7
This is a s far as I can get but,
Now, I need to list all remaining table fields based on the Name with the longer length and this is where I run into trouble.
The output should read per below with the remaining table fields which I cannot seem to extract with nested select statement
Name IP Addr Location
ATVDDR1 1.1.1.1 2ndFloor
I tried adding another GROUP BY by this gets me no where because I do not need to execute another aggregate in select statement. Maybe I need to use INNER JOIN
Please advise any assistance.

Would it be possible to retrieve a "dynamically" named field from a table by using an input parameter?
For example, if a table has fields named Semester1, Semester2, Semester3, Semester4, and I was lazy and only wanted to create one stored procedure for all semesters could I do the following...
ALTER PROCEDURE u_sp_x
@semester int
AS
Select Semester@semester
From ThisTable
Just curious.
Thanks,

Hello!
I am trying to write an update t-SQL statement from the following select statement:
SELECT EduNextContacts.ssn
FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN
EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND
EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code
GROUP BY EduNextContacts.ssn
HAVING(SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '103' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) +
SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '102' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) >= 2)
I tried many versions of writing my update statement with no luck. My most recent version is as follows:
UPDATE EduNextContacts
SET EduNextContacts.overLMLimit = 'Y'
FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN
EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND
EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code
WHERE EduNextContacts.ssn = (SELECT DISTINCT EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn
FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN
EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND
EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code
GROUP BY EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn
HAVING(SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '103' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) +
SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '102' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) >= 2))
And gives the following error:
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
Can anyone help shed some light on how to make an update statement from my SELECT query above?
Thanks in advance,
Harry

I want to update records in 1 table with the result of a select statement.
The table is called 'MPR_Portfolio_Transactions' and contains the following fields:
[PTR_SEQUENCE]
,[PTR_DATE]
,[PTR_SYMBOL]
,[PTR_QUANTITY]
,[PTR_ACUM]
And the select statement is like this:
SELECT SUM(PTR_QUANTITY) OVER (PARTITION BY PTR_SYMBOL ORDER BY PTR_DATE, PTR_SEQUENCE) AS 'ACUMULADO'
FROM MPR_portfolio_transactions
ORDER BY PTR_SYMBOL, PTR_DATE, PTR_SEQUENCE
This select statement generates one line per existing record. And what I would like to do next is to UPDATE the field 'PTR_ACUM' with the result of the 'ACUMULADO'
the key is PTR_SEQUENCE

cn.Close()
Response.Redirect("database.aspx")
it posts and the page loads but the data is still the same in my datagrid. what could be wrong with this simple statement... i've tried testing the statement above with constant values of the correct type but i don't think that matters because the SqlCommand() accepts a string only anyways.. doesn't it?

Hello All
I have had asked the same question in another post, i didnt get answer to it i might have had asked it wrongfully
Soo the question is: When creating a SQLDataSource in the wizard you get to the pont where you select the option . It says that by using this datasource you can select to update delete and insert. So my question is if i am creating a select statement to reterieve the data from the Table, then what does it do it do if my intention is to only reterie the data. Or what is the other way that it could be helpful to me ??
thanks all I hope it make sence, if not I wrill write another post to bring step by step info into it.

I have a GridView dispalying from a SQLServerDataSource that is using a SQL Select Union statement (like the following):
SELECT FirstName, LastNameFROM MasterUNION ALLSELECT FirstName, LastNameFROM CustomORDER BY LastName, FirstName
I am wondering how to create Update and Insert statements for this SQLServerDataSource since the select is actually driving from two different tables (Master and Custom). Any ideas if or how this can be done? Specifically, I want the Custom table to be editable, but not the Master table. Any examples or ideas would be very much appreciated!
Thanks,

i was tasked to created an UPDATE statement for 6 tables , i would like to update 4 columns within the 6 tables , they all contains the same column names. the table gets its information from the source table, however the data that is transferd to the 6 tables are sometimes incorrect , i need to write a UPDATE statement that will automatically correct the data. the Update statement should also contact a where clause
the columns are [No] , [Salesperson Code], [Country Code] and [Country Name]

CASE
WHEN [No] ='AF01' THEN 'Country Code' = 'ZA7' AND 'Country Name' = 'South Africa'

Is there any good suggestion?

Hello,
I'm writing a fairly involved stored procedure. In this Stored Procedure, I have an update statement, followed by a select statement. The results of the select statement should be effected by the previous update statement, but its not. When the stored procedure is finish, the update statement seemed to have worked though, so it is working.
I suspect I need something, like a GO statement, but that doesnt seem to work for a stored procedure. Can anyone offer some assistance?
