Update datetime
}
and also have a master table as follows
Table Master

My requirement is to alter themaster table schema i.e to add a column with the name as of the table name i.e Cat3 and will lok lie as foolows

Hello all. I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to construct a SQL statement that will be run on a Dataset that I have. The trick is that there are many conditions that can apply. I'll describe my situation:
I have about 1700 records in a datatable titled "AISC_Shapes_Table" with 49 columns. What I would like to do is allow the user of my VB application to 'create' a custom query (i.e. advanced search). For now, I'll just discuss two columns; The Section Label titled "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" and the Weight column "W". The data appears in the following manner:
(AISC_Shapes_Table)
AISC_MANUAL_LABEL W W44x300 300 W42x200 200 (and so on) WT22x150 150 WT21x100 100
(and so on) MT12.5x12.4 12.4 MT12x10 10 (etc.)
I have a listbox which users can select MULTIPLE "Manual Labels" or shapes. They then select a property (W for weight, in this case) and a limitation (greater than a value, less than a value, or between two values). From all this, I create a custom Query string or filter to apply to my BindingSource.Filter method. However I have to use the % wildcard to deal with exceptions. If the user only wants W shapes, I use "...LIKE 'W%'" and "...NOT LIKE 'WT%" to be sure to select ONLY W shapes and no WT's. The problems arises, however, when the user wants multiple shapes in general. If I want to select all the "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" values with W <= 40, I can't do it. An example of a statement I tried to use to select WT% Labels and MT% labels with weight (W)<=100 is:
Code SnippetSELECT AISC_MANUAL_LABEL, W FROM AISC_Shape_Table WHERE (W <= 100) AND ((AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'MT%') AND (AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'WT%'))
It returns a NULL value to me, which i know is NOT because no such values exist. So, I further investigated and tried to use a subquery seeing if IN, ANY, or ALL would work, but to no avail. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? I know that if I can get an example of ONE of them to work, then I'll easily be able to apply it to all of my cases. Otherwise, am I just going about this the hard way or is it even possible? Please, ANY suggestions will help. Thank you in advance.
RO1 BOOK RL1 PDF/ECOPY RO2 PAPER RL2 CONFERENCE RO5 JOURNAL RL11 OTHER
Now, on the above query I want to insert three extra columns with the name (status, location and contact) where the results in the extra three columns would be based on the conditions I want to define in the query based on the above results…
Something for example (I am not trying to write a condition: my question is how to write it),
if column_code1 = RO1 and column_description2 = PDF/ECOPY on status column it should return a value ‘ONLINE’ & on location column it should return ‘WEB’ and on contact column it should write ‘BOB’.
Also, if column_code1 = RO5 and column_description1 = JOURNAL on status column it should return a value ‘ON PRESS FOR PRINT’ & on location column it should return ‘S.R STREET, LONDON’ and on contact column it should write ‘SMITH’ like below result…so the final output should be the top four columns and the extra three columns…
See the attachment for better formatting...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- status location contact --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ONLINE WEB BOB ON PRESS FOR PRINT S.R STREET, LONDON SMITH
Can someone give me a clue on this. I'm trying to insert values based off of values in another table.
I'm comparing wether two id's (non keys in the db) are the same in two fields (that is the where statement. Based on that I'm inserting into the Results table in the PledgeLastYr collumn a 'Y' (thats what I want to do -- to indicate that they have pledged over the last year).
Two questions
1. As this is set up right now I'm getting NULL values inserted into the PledgeLastYr collumn. I'm sure this is a stupid syntax problem that i'm overlooking but if someone can give me a hint that would be great.
2. How would I go about writing an If / Else statement in T-SQL so that I can have the Insert statement for both the Yes they have pledged and No they have not pledged all in one stored proc. I'm not to familar with the syntax of writing conditional statements within T-SQL as of yet, and if someone can give me some hints on how to do that it would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance, bellow is the code that I have so far:
RB
Select Results.custID, Results.PledgeLastYr From Results, PledgeInLastYear Where Results.custID = PledgeInLastYear.constIDPledgeInLastYear Insert Into Results(PledgeLastYr) Values ('Y')
We have SharePoint list which has, say, two columns. Column A and Column B.
Column A can have three values - red, blue & green.
Column B can have four values - pen, marker, pencil & highlighter.
A typical view of list can be:
Column A - Column B red - pen red - pencil red - highlighter blue - marker blue - pencil green - pen green - highlighter red - pen blue - pencil blue - highlighter blue - pencil
We are looking to create a report from SharePoint List using SSRS which has following view:
red blue green pen 2 0 1 marker 0 1 0 pencil 1 3 0 highlighter 1 1 1
We tried Sum but not able to display in single row.
I have a column with serial numbers 1, 2,3,4,....etc...I want to have P1 for first 4 serial numbers to be displayed in a separate column beside Serial number column and for the next four serial numbers (5,6,7,8) it should be P2 and like that I want till P13 and for next again it should start with P1(I mean after P13 it should give again P1 instead of P14) and continue the same process.
Column name of Serial number is [S.No] table name for example is #temp1
i have the folowing databases DB1,DB2,DB3,D4,DB5........
i have to loop through each of the databases and find out if the database has a table with the name 'Documents'( like 'tbdocuments' or 'tbemplyeedocuments' and so on......)
If the tablename having the word 'Documents' is found in that database i have to add a column named 'IsValid varchar(100)' against that table in that database and there can be more than 1 'Documents' table in a database.
I am trying to add a where condition on an ID column(type - INT) with values coming from a variable (type - STRING). i am using cast to cast the ID as Varchar and then apply the condition, but i am not getting any results back. following is an example of what i am trying to do.using temp table in the example , so you can copy the t-sql and run as is.
Is there a way to insert multiple values into a single column based on various "tests". For example, I want to check a sales_order table and flag all new orders coming in against previous orders placed that were determined to be fraudulent. If I were to set up i.e. five different tests(i.e. check email, credit_card number etc. against previous fraud orders), then there would be the possibility that any given order can be flagged 1 to 5 times. I want to record all of these tests within the same column if possible. Therefore the output may look something like the following:
order_number fraud_score 1234567890 a,b,d 5432109876 e 2345678901 null 3455607983 a,b,c,d,e
I was considering adding five additional columns to the table and running five different update steps, but this doesn't appear very scalable. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance- trevorb
Hi, I have a question regarding how to insert one column values into a table by selecting from different table..Here is the syntax.. ------------ insert into propertytable values (select lastvalue+incrementby from agilesequences where name='SEQPROPERTYTABLE', 13926, 0, 4, 1, 451, 1, 8, 1)
the first column in the propertytable will be... select lastvalue+incrementby from agilesequences where name='SEQPROPERTYTABLE' How do I do that..Help PLZ..
IF I have a table like the below one and i have to insert a number value which is inserted as varchar in an int column then what is expected behavior of this statements .
create table stud (id int) insert into stud values ('1').
I need to avg column data based on grid textboxes. I cannot use AVG because the column values come from a comma delimited string. I have tried using !Parameters to store a count and total for each column but they are always read only. What is the best approach.
The columns come from a field which is in the format of (99,75,60,100,-1,20,-1,80,75) for each record
-1 means the values are not counted in the average. I have a function for each textbox that parses the value from the list based on the column index. There can be 1 to many columns.
Everytime I to set the value of a field or parameter at runtime I get a read-only error.
I've got a large table (3mil records) with a number of columns, but currently no way to refer to any individual column. I therefore need a primary key, but does anyone know of a SQL statement I can use that will create a column (say, ID) that is automatically filled with an incrementing 'counter'? Or, instead, how can I set unique incremental values after first creating the column?
I want to produce some output for Mainframe application. For that I want to insert values from multiple table as source to a single column (huge in size)of a different table (Destination table). There may be same related records in all of the source tables with the primary key. When I export values from the source tables , each related records should be insterted to the destination table's field (multiple entries for each table). Please advise.
I have been banging my head against the wall for TWO days. I have gone back and forth with a very patient guy on thescripts.com. You can see the ridiculous thread here
If you have time, at least peruse that so we don't go in circles. Anyway, if you guys can help me solve this, I will be forever grateful!!
Here is the "basic" problem:
Here is an example for TWO different entities in the database.
EntityID XmlFieldName Value 1 City Austin 1 State TX 1 Country US 2 CityName Los Angeles 2 StateCode CA 2 CountryCode US 2 Zip 111111
Here is how the two different results should be
where EntityID = 1 <Address City="Austin" State="TX" Country="US"/>
where EntityID = 2 <Address CityName="Los Angeles" StateCode="TX" CountryCode="US" Zip="111111"/>
Notice how the attribute names (City or CityName, State or StateCode, etc) are based off the XmlFieldName and I don't know in advance what the possible values will be? I also don't know how many attributes there will be, but they can be different per entity, depending on how they have set up an address in our application.
Another thing to note, is that I kind of have this working in an sproc using PIVOT and generating a table with the values that have the correct dynamic column names (you can see this on my other thread I posted above) but I REALLY need this to not use dynamic SQL (so can use it in a function) if possible and be able to be used in a select statement, whether it be a temp table as I would like to get a result set back that I can do a FOR XML RAW on. If this is confusing, it is because I am delerious. OR is there a way to return a table from an SPROC that has dynamic columns built?
As bcp does not allow for the column names to be included; I have developed a method for providing the columns. The end result is that two Tables are required for each output; a "ColumnNames" table and the Table that contains the actual data; however the bcp command is sorting the data; why this is happening?
According to Microsoft, by default bcp will not apply any sorting unless specified.
Here is the command I am using to perform the bcp output: -
SET @bcpCommand =(select 'bcp "SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.MIS001_BCPColumnNames UNION SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.voltemp" queryout ' + @FilePath+' -c -t -T')
I have a table #vert where I have value column. This data needs to be updated into two channel columns in #hori table based on channel number in #vert table.
CREATE TABLE #Vert (FILTER VARCHAR(3), CHANNEL TINYINT, VALUE TINYINT) INSERT #Vert Values('ABC', 1, 22),('ABC', 2, 32),('BBC', 1, 12),('BBC', 2, 23),('CAB', 1, 33),('CAB', 2, 44) -- COMBINATION OF FILTER AND CHANNEL IS UNIQUE CREATE TABLE #Hori (FILTER VARCHAR(3), CHANNEL1 TINYINT, CHANNEL2 TINYINT) INSERT #Hori Values ('ABC', NULL, NULL),('BBC', NULL, NULL),('CAB', NULL, NULL) -- FILTER IS UNIQUE IN #HORI TABLE
One way to achieve this is to write two update statements. After update, the output you see is my desired output
UPDATE H SET CHANNEL1= VALUE FROM #Hori H JOIN #Vert V ON V.FILTER=H.FILTER WHERE V.CHANNEL=1 -- updates only channel1 UPDATE H SET CHANNEL2= VALUE FROM #Hori H JOIN #Vert V ON V.FILTER=H.FILTER WHERE V.CHANNEL=2 -- updates only channel2 SELECT * FROM #Hori -- this is desired output
my channels number grows in #vert table like 1,2,3,4...and so Channel3, Channel4....so on in #hori table. So I cannot keep writing too many update statements. One other way is to pivot #vert table and do single update into #hori table.
A common partitioning scenario is when the partition column has the same value for every record in the partition, as opposed to a range of values. Am I the only person who wonders why there isn't an option to automatically partition a table based on the unique values of the partition column? Instead of defining a partition function with constants, you ought to be able to just give it the column and be done. This would be particularly valuable for tables partitioned on a weekly or monthly date; when new data is added it could simply create a new partition if one doesn't already exist.
Hi, I'm inserting a datetime values into sql server 2000 from c#
SQL server table details Table nameate_test columnname datatype No int date_t DateTime
C# coding SqlConnection connectionToDatabase = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=testdb;Integrated Security=SSPI"); connectionToDatabase.Open(); DataTable dt1 = new DataTable(); dt1.Columns.Add("no",typeof(System.Int16)); dt1.Columns.Add("date_t", typeof(System.DateTime)); DataRow dr = dt1.NewRow(); dr["no"] = 1; dr["date_t"] = DateTime.Now; dt1.Rows.Add(dr); for(int i=0;i<dt1.Rows.Count;i++) { string str=dt1.Rows["no"].ToString(); DateTime dt=(DateTime)dt1.Rows["date_t"]; string insertQuery = "insert into date_test values(" + str + ",'" + dt + "')"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, connectionToDatabase); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); MessageBox.Show("saved"); } When I run the above code, data is inserted into the table The value in the date_t column is 2007-07-09 22:10:11 000.The milliseconds value is always 000 only.I need the millisecond values also in date_t column. Is there any conversion needed for millisecond values?
I'm trying to join two tables based on a like condition. The first table contains the full IP, e.g. '166.27.12.24' and the second contains a 2 octet range, e.g. '166.27', which I need to join.
I am facing a challenge and hope some one can help me with the query.
I have a school. School have classrooms. Classrooms are divided into various sections (Section A, Section B and so on) . Sections have subsections. Every student is allocated a rollnumber in that section.(Subsection is just for dividng the sections. it has no other use.) Now the student is given a choice to specify his own roll( DesiredRoll) in that section. If two children select the same rollno, then the system internally allocates a trackingno.(There can be multiple roll no as these are allocated manually by admin). Let me demonstrate this:
So when the first entry is made in the db, and let us say that the section to be allocated is A, RollNo is 1 and the DesiredRoll is 1
Student 1 Section A Subsection 1 Roll No 1 DesiredRoll 1 TrackingNo 0
The second entry is made in the db and let us say the section to be allocated is A, RollNo is 2 and the DesiredRoll is 2
Student 2 Section A Subsection 1 Roll No 2 DesiredRoll 2 TrackingNo 0
Now let us say there is a 3rd entry the section to be allocated is A, RollNo is 3 but the DesiredRoll is 1. Now since the DesiredRoll has already been taken, we will allocate the DesiredRoll 1, however now the trackingNo will be 1
Let us say there is a 4th entry is made, the section to be allocated is A, RollNo is 4 but the DesiredRoll is again 1. Now since the DesiredRoll has already been taken, we will allocate the DesiredRoll 1, however now the trackingNo will be 2
Similarly this logic will work for different sections. How will I write a query so that I can detect this scenario and increment the tracking no or allocate a tracking no of 0 if there is a new entry made in that section
My question is that: Just one month before subscriptionendperiod that is on 11/20/2005(mm/dd/yyyy) an automatic email should go to david@john.com with the message 'Your subscription period ends on 12/20/2005'
How to write trigger for this.
Please Note : No ASP code is invloved in this. Only MSSQL coding to be done.
For UserA : - For problemID 1 -> submitted three times -> rejected for first two submission and accepted on third submission. - For problemID 2 -> submitted one time -> accepted on first submission
For UserB : - For problemID 1 -> submitted two times -> rejected for first submission and accepted on second submission. - For problemID 2 -> submitted one time -> accepted on first submission
Now I would like to process the table and want to get the following result :
Explanation : - For each rejected submission, a -2 point penalty. - UserA have submitted probelmID 1 - > score of problemID 1 is 10. - > first two times rejectd - > third time accepted. -> score = 10 - 4 = 6 - UserA have submitted problemID 2 - > score of problemID 2 is 30 - > first time accepted. No penalty will be counted - > score = 30
