Increment Number On Fields With Same Value
Dec 2, 2013
I have a Column named 'Series' and a column named 'Linenumber'. They look like this:
Series Linenumber
234 NULL
234 NULL
235 NULL
235 NULL
234 NULL
234 NULL
235 NULL
235 NULL
236 NULL
236 NULL
236 NULL
And I want to run a query and make it look like this:
Series Linenumber
234 1
234 2
235 1
235 2
234 3
234 4
235 3
235 4
236 1
236 2
236 3
So basically I want Linenumber to be an increment column but to increment seperately for each value of Series. RDBMS is Microsoft SQL Server 2008.

Hi,
So I'm having an issue with a SqlTransaction and retrieving the auto-increment ID after an insert. Presumably this is because I have to commit the transaction before the ID's are generated, but I need the ID's before I commit the transaction (because their is another part of the transaction that requires them).
Is there any way to get these id's other than maybe getting the Max(ID) and auto-incrementing them myself in code to what they will be when the transaction is committed. If this is the best way how do I ensure no other connections can insert stuff while this transaction is going on?
Or is there a better way to do this whole thing? (i don't know really know how to do stored procedures, and presumably this would be the best way, but is there a good way to do it not Stored Procedures)
Thanks!

I have a (1) date field and (2) an auto-incrementing ID field that always throw me errors when I'm doing a programmatic insert.
(1) After doing many searches on the subject, I don't think I'm using the correct syntax for the date and can't find any suggestion that works. Would appreciate your knowledge on correct SQL syntax for inserting a "today's date" field.
(2) I'm using the following code to create a new auto-incrementing ID for each record but it seems that there should be a smoother method to force the field's value to auto-increment. Any ideas?
Private objCmd As SqlCommand Private strConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("conn"))...objCmd = New SqlCommand("select max(ClientID) from tblClients", strConn)Dim intClientID As Int16 = objCmd.ExecuteNonQuery + 1

Is there a way to make the primary ID as Identity Column to always be in order? For example, I have 5 rows with ID 1,2,3,4,5. If I delete record number 5 and then added another record, the ID shows up as 6 and not 5. Or if I delete record number 3, the next ID is going to be 6 instead of 3. I like to keep all my ID in order if possible and not skipping if that is even possible or should I use that practice.

Hello all,I'm a total newbie with SQL Server 2000 and I have a little problem whenmoving a database form Access 2000 to SQL Server 2000.In the Access database, each table has an auto-increment field.After importing the tables in SQL Server, all the auto-increment fieldsare turned into "int" type fields.Does anybody have an explanation for that mystery?Thanks in advance,Yan

I have imported a whole bunch of tables. Most of them have an ID (int) column. Is there a way to set the ID columns across all tables to auto increment Primary Keys in bulk?

Here is a piece of code I found in an application I'm supporting.
Problem: We're seeing duplicate numbers and I think this code may be the source of it.
At first glance I did not understand how it worked.
It locks a table <begin tran> , updates a number, reads that number, then commits. This code appears to work - it returns the newly added number.
My Question - How? How can this code return a value that is not "Committed" to the database yet. Please critique..... I have an alternate method, please comment on it as well. Thanks for your input.
--THIS IS WHAT I FOUND....
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_UpdateOrderNumber @customer int AS
DECLARE @NewOrderId int,
BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE CUSTOMERS
SET ORDER_NUMBER=ORDER_NUMBER + 1
WHERE COMPANY_ID=@customer
SELECT
If @@ERROR <> 0 OR @@ROWCOUNT <> 1 /* Check for Errors */
Begin
Rollback Tran
Return -999
End
SELECTORDER_NUMBER
FROMCUSTOMERS
WHERECOMPANY_ID=@customer
SELECT
If @@ERROR <> 0 OR @@ROWCOUNT <> 1 /* Check for Errors */
Begin
Rollback Tran
Return -998
End
COMMIT TRAN
My Newly suggested method. Using Implicit transaction.
I believe this is more "concurrency" friendly. Do you?
Begin loop until success
Read Number
Update to Number+ 1 WHERE number is the one I just read
If row was updated, use this new number and set success flag
Loop

Hi All,
Is there any option to get the velue of auto increment number before inserting record.
My problem is that I want to get the auto increment number, for this I am using MaxId function, but If i have deleted the some rows from table, I could not get the actual.
For example there are 20record s in the table I have delete the last 3 records now I have the last value of Identity is 17. When I used the Maxid function It gives me the 18 number. But I need 21.
How?
help required.
Thanks

HI,
I have one master table and multiple detail tables. The primary key of the master table is an auto-increment number, which is a foreign key in those detail tables. I am wondering if SQL Server allows us to get the next available auto-increment number of the master table up front. Thanks a lot.

Hi, in Access, I can use an Auto-Increment number for my primary key field. May I know how do I do that in SQL Express?
In addition, is there any tutorial on how to use SQL Express to generate customised unique numbers (such as membership number, Customer ID such as A001 where A is based on the customer's name while 001 is due to the fact that the customer is the first among those with names starting with A)?
Thanks a lot.

I need to create a script that adds an incrementing suffix to two columns, but restarts based on the value of another column. I found a similar question in the SQL Server 2000 forum, but it doesn't quite fit and also I'm working with SQL Server 2008 R2. The code below both creates a table with test data and tries to carry out the task. If you run this, you will see that the VISITNUM column has a value of UNS in row 4, UNS.1 in row 5 and UNS.2 in row 6. In row 7 it's V200, then in rows 8 and 9 it's UNS.3 for both. The same suffix gets applied to the VISIT column, but of course if I can solve this for VISITNUM then adding the suffix to VIST as well will be easy.
What I need is for row 8 to have UNS and row 9 to have UNS.1. In other words, any time the VISITNUM is UNS several times in a row, I need to add that ".X" suffix, but if a row has something other than UNS, I need to start over again the next time it's UNS again.
CREATE TABLE #testing(
KitID varchar(20),
SubjID varchar(20),
VISIT varchar(60),
VISITNUM varchar(20),
[code]....

I need to have a script where it ask the user for a value, the script will search for all records that match the value. Then it will display the numbers of records found and ask the user to enter a different value. The rest of the script will use this new value and increment by 1 n times as the number of records found. I started the script where it will ask for "HANDLE" and display the number of records found with that "HANDLE"
declare @HANDLE as varchar(30)
declare @COUNT as varchar(10)
declare @STARTINV as varchar(20)
set @HANDLE = ?C --This is the parameter to search for records with this value
set @STARTINV = ?C --User will input the starting invoice number
SELECT COUNT as OrderCount FROM SHIPHIST
where HANDLE = @HANDLE
I just can't figure out how to proceed to use the entered invoice # and increment by 1 until it reach the number of records found.
This will be the end results:
Count=5 --results from query
STARTINV=00010 --Value entered by user
Handle,Inv_Num
AAABBB,00010
AAABBB,00011
AAABBB,00012
AAABBB,00013
AAABBB,00014

Hi,
I have a fairly basic query I want to make but I'm struggling on figuring out how to do it. Let's say I have some fields (e.g. Value1, Value2, Value3, etc). I simply want to do a Select statement that returns the highest value among those fields for every row in my db.
At first I thought of the built in Max function until I realized that is for within a column only.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

My users login from the tbl_users table.
I would like to store all information on them in this table but that amounts to quite a lot of fields (about 50) and some of these will store a lot of HTML text in them.
Is it best to split the table up for performance reasons or will it make little difference?
Thanks,

I am working on a project which requires having a form that must be filled by the user. The number of the fields on this form is arround 150. Is it a good idea to have a database table with 150 fields (columns)? If its not what would be a better approach for this case? Handling this many fields on a windows form is another issue but first I would like to know about how to deal with the data storage.

What I need to do is re-populate a unique number into multiple fields,
Let me explain, An employee can appear in the first table only once but can be in the second table multiple times with multiple employee numbers .There is a field called TFN that is unique and we are using it to create a unique id called KRid so what I have done is created 2 tables namely TEST_TBL and TEST2_TBL . In TEST_TBL I am populating a KRid with a unique no being produced by the TFN field only once i.e 12345 being the resulting unique id number. If an employee has 2 employee numbers i.e empno 1 and empno 1000,only employee no 1 will have the unique KRid created but nothing for 1000 because the record already exists , so what has me stumped is that the TFN for employee empno 1 and the TFN for empno 1000 are the same. How do I get the KRid (12345 from empno 1) to populate empno 1000 in TEST2_TBL , The second table has all records in so I can group the second table by TFN id but how do I populate employee 1000 in the second table with the KRid 12345.
Please help!!!!! Below are how the tables are set up and an example of the result.
TABLE 1
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[TEST_TBL]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
drop table [dbo].[TEST_TBL]

Query goes as follows for table 1:
SELECT NPE000.EmpNumber, NPET00.RecordStatus, NPE000.KR_ID, NPE000.Surname, NPE000.FirstName, NPE000.SecondName, NPE000.Class, NPE000.DateEmployed, NPE000.DateOfBirth, NPE000.HoursPerDay, NPE000.HoursPerWeek, NPE000.PassportNo, NPE000.AwardCode, NPE000.EmailPayslipTo, NPE000.Location, NPE000.Grade, NPE000.DateTerminated, NPE000.EmploymentType, NPE000.DistCode, NPE000.EmpStatus, NPET00.TaxRefNo FROM NPE000 NPE000, NPET00 NPET00 WHERE NPET00.RecordStatus = 0 and NPET00.TaxRefNo <> ' 111111111' and NPET00.TaxRefNo <> ' 000000000' AND LENGTH(NPET00.TaxRefNo) >= 9 AND LENGTH(NPE000.KR_ID) >= 0 AND NPE000.EmpNumber = NPET00.EmpNumber
Query goes as follows for table 2:
SELECT NPE000.EmpNumber, NPE000.FirstName, NPE000.Surname, NPE000.Class, NPE000.Location, NPE000.EmploymentType, NPE000.EmpStatus, NPET00.TaxRefNo, NPE000.Paypoint, NPE000.KR_ID, FROM NPE000, NPET00 WHERE Recordstatus = 0 and (EmploymentType = 1 AND EmpStatus = 1 AND NPE000.EmpNumber = NPET00.EmpNumber
From this you can see that in table 1 it will only create 1 KR_ID for only one employee number but in table 2 I am bringing through all employee records. In table 2 I can group by NPET00.TaxRefNo which will bring all NPET00.TaxRefNo's togeather. From that I would like to populate the other employee numbers with the unique KR_ID.
Example:Table 1
000001,Jackson,James,Sam,7.6,38,12345,475431212
Example:Table 2
000001,Jackson,James,Sam,7.6,38,12345,475431212
001000,Jackson,James,Sam,7.6,38,,475431212
I hope this helps
Thanks in advance

Hi folks....
I am able to import a CSV file into a temporary table as long as I know the number of fields in the CSV file. Here is what I would like to do:
I would like to have a CSV file which has UP to 6 entries per row. I would like to insert each row into a table; if the there three fields, then I want to insert them into the first three columns to the temporary table. If there are four, then insert into the first four fields. Is this possible?
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm writing a query that will be used in Jasper Ireports, but prefer to have the values done ahead of time using SQL rather than relying on the report to do the lifting.The fields are pretty straight forward, only the display is where I have a question.
Fields Used: PERIOD ('MON-yyyy') and VALUE
The results must start with the CURRENT PERIOD (AUG-2014) in one column and the VALUE for the current period multiplied by 1/12 (VALUE*(1/12)).The next column should return the VALUE for CURRENT PERIOD - 1 (JUL-2014) and multiply by 2/12 (VALUE*(2/12))
This should continue for the last 11 months and would end with OCT-2013 with the value being multiplied (VALUE*(11/12)).Is the easiest solution to this a CASE statement looking at PERIOD then PERIOD minus one month, minus two months...etc?

I need to associate aggregate gross_revenue with calendar year, but do not have a date field that reflects payment dates, just contract periods a start_date and an end_date. The contract periods are typically 1 or 2 years and can start at any time I.e start_date 6/1/2012, end date 5/31/13. I think by finding the number of days that fall in each calendar year and storing in a temp table, I can create a simple formula to associate revenue to each year.

Hello,
I Have a table that needs to have 2 unique number.
detail_id and detail_print_id.
detail_id is already an IDENTITY.
both fields need to be different, because when importing, it imports the same data into a table twice, with only a slight data change (and id is not one of the changes).
So I thought i could do the following:
detail_id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,2),
detail_print_id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(2,2),
--blah blah
that way, the detail_id will always be odd, and the detail_print_id will always be even. however SQL Server 2005 only allows 1 identity per table, and both these fields need to be auto generated when the field is inserted, so as to prevent double data.
is there anyway I can create a int column to auto increment, without the column being an IDENTITY??
also, I would prefer to not have to create a second table with a single column just for this work.
Thanks,
Justin

For example in a table with this fields "field1, L1,L3,L100" field2 the count is 3
it would be better to match a number into the like but i thinks it cannot be done in the like so i've to add another condition to ensure all the text after L is a number.
is this the best way to do it?
Select count(*) from Information_Schema.Columns Where Table_Name = @Table
AND column_name like 'L%' and ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(column_name,2, len(column_name)-1))=1

what is the best way to uses ssis to deal with a CSV file that contains a number of records that contain a different number of fields ?
I could just load as a single column delimited by <CRLF> but then I would have to write the code to parse the line, effectively detokenising the columns myself but if that is the case then why uses ssis at all ?

Im trying to determine the best way to store data gathered from a form that a user will fill out online. The form is dynamic and is customized at run time based on group-specific criteria. The end result is a form that might have 3 extra text boxes, 2 extra sets of radio buttons and a freeform textbox, whereas for another group, there might be a slightly different set of input fields. Now comes the issue of storing this data. Since the fields can be somewhat dynamic, it could get tricky to define table columns for each possible input field. So Im considering storing the data as xml. Has anyone else had to build custom forms and ended up storing the data as xml ?

I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
