Invalid Results For Order By On Select Query Against Table Variable
Jan 21, 2008
I am attempting to sort the results of a query executed against a table variable in descending order. The data is being inserted into the table variable as expected, however when I attempt to order the results in descending order, the results are incorrect. I have included the code as well as the result set.
DECLARE @tblCustomRange AS TABLE
(
RecordID INTEGER IDENTITY(1,1),
RangeMonth INTEGER,
RangeDay INTEGER
)
DECLARE @Month INTEGER
DECLARE @Day INTEGER
-- Initialize month and day variables.
SET @Month = 8
SET @Day = 11
-- Insert records into the table variable.
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (1,2)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (1,27)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (6,10)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (9,22)
INSERT INTO @tblCustomRange
(RangeMonth, RangeDay) VALUES (12,16)
-- Select everything from the table variable ordering the results by month, day in
-- descending order
SELECT * FROM @tblCustomRange
WHERE (RangeMonth < @Month) OR
(RangeMonth = @Month AND RangeDay <= @Day)
ORDER BY RangeMonth, RangeDay DESC
I am getting the following resultset:
RecordID RangeMonth RangeDay
----------- ----------- -----------
2 1 27
1 1 2
3 6 10
I am expecting the following resultset:
RecordID RangeMonth RangeDay
----------- ----------- -----------
3 6 10
2 1 27
1 1 2

Hello,
I hope someone can answer this, I'm not even sure where to start looking for documentation on this. The SQL query I'm referencing is included at the bottom of this post.
I have a query with 3 select statements joined together like tables. It works great, except for the fact that I need to declare a variable and make it a table within two of those 3. The example is below. You'll see that I have three select statements made into tables A, B, and C, and that table A has a variable @years, which is a table.
This works when I just run table A by itself, but when I execute the entire query, I get an error about the "declare" keyword, and then some other errors near the word "as" and the ")" character. These are some of those errors that I find pretty meaningless that just mean I've really thrown something off.
So, am I not allowed to declare a variable within these SELECT tables that I'm creating and joining?
Thanks in advance,
Andy
Select * from
(
declare @years table (years int);
insert into @years
select
CASE
WHEN month(getdate()) in (1) THEN year(getdate())-1
WHEN month(getdate()) in (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) THEN year(getdate())
END

Lets say I have a table named [Leadership] and I want to select the field 'leadershipName' from the [Leadership] Table.
My query would look something like this:
Select leadershipName
From Leadership
Now, I would like to order the results of this query... but I don't want to simply order them by ASC or DESC. Instead, I need to order them as follows:
Executive Board Members, Delegates, Grievance Chairs, and Negotiators
My question: Can this be done through MS SQL or do I need to add a field to my [Leadership] table named 'leadershipImportance' or something as an integer to denote the level of importance of the position so that I can order on that value ASC or DESC?
Thanks,
Zoop

Hello there,
I have two tables I selecting name using like with %string% from the two tables but I need to order the result comes from the two table:
1- the exact match for the search string come first from the two table.
2- and the partial match comes last after the exact match.
this is my DDL for the two tables :
USE [Northwind]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[Person] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:24 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Person](
[PersonID] [int] NULL,
[Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
second table:
USE [Northwind]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[Members] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:52 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Members](
[MemberID] [int] NULL,
[Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[Email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
and this my search query I have it in a stored Proc.
select *
from
(
SELECT PersonID, Type, Name, email
FROM Person
WHERE (Name LIKE '%'@Name'%')
union all
SELECT PersonID, Type, Name, email
From Members
WHERE (Name Like '%'@Name'%' )
) Y
Order by
Case[Name] when @Name Then 1 Else 2 End,
Case[Name] when 'm' Then 1 Else 2 End
Thank you for your time

Below is my Query:

-- The 3rd query uses an incorrect column name in a sub-query and succeeds but rows are incorrectly qualified. This is very DANGEROUS!!!
-- The issue exists is in 2008 R2, 2012 and 2014 and is "By Design"
set nocount on
go
if object_id('tempdb.dbo.#t1') IS NOT NULL drop table #t1
if object_id('tempdb.dbo
[code]....
This succeeds when the invalid column name is a valid column name in the outer query. So in this situation the sub-query would fail when run by itself but succeed with an incorrectly applied filter when run as a sub-query. The danger here is that if a SQL Server user runs DML in a production database with such a sub-query which then the results are likely not the expected results with potentially unintended actions applied against the data. how many SQL Server users have had incorrectly applied DML or incorrect query results and don't even know it....?

Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.

Not sure if this is possible, but maybe. I have a table that contains a bunch of logs.
I'm doing something like SELECT * FROM LOGS. The primary key in this table is LogID.
I have another table that contains error messages. Each LogID could have multiple error messages associated with it. To get the error messages.
When I perform my first select query listed above, I would like one of the columns to be populated with ALL the error messages for that particular LogID (SELECT * FROM ERRORS WHERE LogID = MyLogID).
Any thoughts as to how I could accomplish such a daring feat?

I have a database owned by the sa. In the database are some tables owned by id1. When I login via SQL Analyzer as id1 and try to select from
the tables owned by id1, I get an error message 208 that the object does not exist. If I query 'select * from id1.table', I get my data. I thought that
if I owned the table I could always access it. Additional facts, id1 is defined as a login, id1 is defined as a user for the database with db_owner role.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jen

Hi, not exactly too sure if this can be done but I have a need to run a query which will return a list of values from 1 column. Then I need to iterate this list to produce the resultset for return.
This is implemented as a stored procedure
declare @OwnerIdent varchar(7)
set @OwnerIdent='A12345B'
SELECT table1.val1 FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2
ON table1. Ident = table2.Ident
WHERE table2.Ident = @OwnerIdent
'Now for each result of the above I need to run the below query
SELECT Clients.Name , Clients.Address1 ,
Clients.BPhone, Clients.email
FROM Clients INNER JOIN Growers ON Clients.ClientKey = Growers.ClientKey
WHERE Growers.PIN = @newpin)
'@newpin being the result from first query
Any help appreciated

I have a query that performs a comparison between 2 different databases and returns the results of the comparison. It returns 2 columns. The 1st column is the value of the object being compared, and the 2nd column is a number representing any discrepancies.What I would like to do is use the results from this 1st query in the where clause of another separate query so that this 2nd query will only run for any primary values from the 1st query where a secondary value in the 1st query is not equal to zero.I was thinking of using an "IN" function in the 2nd query to pull data from the 1st column in the 1st query where the 2nd column in the 1st query != 0, but I'm having trouble ironing out the correct syntax, and conceptualizing this optimally.
While I would prefer to only return values from the 1st query where the comparison value != 0 in order to have a concise list to work with, I am having difficulty in that the comparison value is a mathematical calculation of 2 different tables in 2 different databases, and so far I've been forced to include it in the select criteria because the where clause does not accept it.Also, I am not a DBA by trade. I am a system administrator writing SQL code for reporting data from an application I support.

Hi,
I think I'm just braindead or simply thick...since this shouldn't be that hard, but I'm stumped right now.
So, I'm trying to retrieve from a table, with a sql stored procedure with the sql like
"select height, width, depth from products where id=@idinput"
OK, so this part is easy, but if I wanted to say, return this to my code and assign height to a variable Ht, width to Wd and depth to Dp, how could I do that?
This is what I've got so far...
[code]
cmdSelect = New SqlCommand( "GetProd", connstr )
cmdSelect.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
dbcon.Open()
dbcon.Close()
[/code]
The main prob is just what to connect this record to in order to access the individual fields.
Thx :)

I have a Managers table in my SQL DB and it has a ManagerID, MgrName and MgrPhoto field base...
I can code a form with a select button that displays a drop down with the managers in it as choices, but am a little confused as to how I would make the PHOTO (MgrPhoto) change to the corresponding ManagerID that is selected from that option drop down since the SELECT CODE in the form only queries the ManagerID / MgrName combo for the choice.. The photo is below that drop down box and how to make it change to whatever photo is assigned to the selected ManagerID / MgrName ?
Here is the form code with query :
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="updatemanagerphoto.php" method="POST">
<select name="ManagerID" id="manager" style="width:400px" class="form_textbox">
<?
$db_connect= mysql_connect($db_host, $db_username, $db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_name, $db_connect) || die(mysql_error());
$sql_query= "SELECT * FROM Managers ORDER BY MgrName ASC";

I need to insert data into a table based on the results returned by a select statement. Basically, the select statement below gives me a list of all the work orders created in the last hour.
select worknumber from worksorderhdr where date_created > DATEADD(HOUR, -1, GETDATE())
This might return anywhere between 5 and 50 records each time. What I then need to do is use each of the work numbers returned to create a record in the spec_checklist_remind table. The other details in the insert statement will be the same for each insert, it's just the worknumber from the select statement that needs to be added to the insert where the ?? are below:
INSERT INTO spec_checklist_remind (form, record_type, linked_to_worknumber, spec_checklist_id) values (5, 0, '??',52)"

Hello all,
I have a problem... I have a SELECT query I have used in my PHP report. It is as follows:
SELECT DISTINCT callref, CASE WHEN (stage.due_date < stage.completed_date) THEN 'SLA Breach' ELSE ' In SLA' END AS sla
FROM tableX....
WHERE call_status=open.....
I wish to search through all stages (i.e response, fix, end) of the calls logged in our database, & then return 'In SLA' for each call that had all its stages completed within the SLA, & 'Breach' for all calls that had even one of its stages completed outside its SLA.
At the moment the SELECT query above gives me the following results:
Call Ref sla
10001 In SLA
10002 Breach
10002 In SLA
10003 In SLA
10004 In SLA
10005 Breach
10005 In SLA
... ...
What it should look like is this....
Call Ref sla
10001 In SLA
10002 Breach
10003 In SLA
10004 In SLA
10005 Breach
... ...
Please let me know if anyone has the answers or any clues to this! thanks.

Hi,
I wonder if its possible to perform a ORDER BY clause in an SELECT DISTINCT sql query whereby the AS SINGLECOLUMN is used. At present I am recieving error: ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified. My guess is that I cant perform the Order By clauses because it cant find the columns individually. It is essentail I get this to work somehow...
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance

Hello.Lets say that there is a table with N rows. now, i want to display the table's data on a web page. one way is to select the whole table and add each row's data to the webpage (something like SELECT * FROM TABLE1).going this way will create a huge page. i want to speared the results over multiple pages - excatly as this forum spread each forum messages over multiple pages.
for this purpose, i need to query Y rows each time, for example, if my table has 20 rows, and say that i want that each page will display 5 rows, then i need to query 5 rows each time. the first 5 rows for the first page, the next 5 rows for the second page and so on...
is there any way to achieve it using an SQL query?
the simplest way is to select the whole table and manaually filter the results. but this way will become slow as the table grows with data... and i dont want to select rows which i wont display anyway.
any suggestions?
Thanks.
