SELECT * Vs. SELECT Field1, Field2, Etc.
Nov 9, 2004This may be a more general question but I love SQL Server so Ill pose it here. I couldnt find this answer on google so that why Im asking. I was never taught (or I was too high to retain the info) form college in my one DB class.
What are the performace impacts, if any, on doing a "SELECT * FROM table" vs. "SELECT each, column, called, out, but, not, all, of, them FROM table" ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedDeclaring A Table Variable Within A Select Table Joined To Other Select Tables In Query
Oct 15, 2007Hello,
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 Something Where Field1 = N'literal'
Jul 23, 2005What exactly is happening when a query is sent using the N in front ofthe string to be found?Under what conditions would someone use the N' in a query?I have been testing out some chinese text. I set up some fields ofnVarchar, nText and it works with an N. Without the N, it wont work.N also works with fields of varchar and text for english.Would this ever cause a problem to a query depending on how themachines regional settings are set? Why not just put N in all of thequeryies?If anyone has some ideas, I would be grateful for any and allinformation about the N.

Mar 19, 2008I have a Log table which records items found on library shelves during a shelf scanning process. Each time a shelf is scanned all the items found are recorded in the log table and the ScanCount value is incremented (per shelf). This means that if I get the records with the highest available ScanCount value for each ShelfID, then I would have the most up to date picture of my library.
From this sample data I would like to return the latest rows (max scan count) for all shelves (which would be LogID: 7,8 (shelf A) 3,4 (Shelf B) 5,6 (Shelf C):

I'm not sure how to do this - presumably with an inner select? Could someone help? thanks
Select * From Table Is Processed Much Faster Than Select MyField From Table ¿?¿?
Oct 1, 2007
I have a query that has the following structure
Select *
From Table
Where Condition And ... (some 'Exists' conditions)
When I run the query using field names the query gets much slower, and I cannot understand Why!
Select MyField
From Table
Where Condition And ... (some 'Exists' conditions)
I'm talking about three times slower using the Select MyField sintax.
Any ideas???

Default Table Owner Using CREATE TABLE, INSERT, SELECT && DROP TABLE
Nov 21, 2006For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

Select * From Table Does Not Select All Records
Aug 17, 2005I have an unusual problem. I am using VB.Net 2003 and sqlexpress using .NET dataset to insert records into an timecards table. After inserting several records I tried a 'Select * from timecards' and the inserted records where not selected. if I 'select * from timecards order by employee' ( or any other field) the inserted records are selected! The table was created by an Access Upsize command.
Any suggestions?

Need Help W/ Postback To 'Customers' Table On Form Using Select Query From 'Parameters' Table
Dec 20, 2007I have set up a 'Parameters' table that solely stores all pre-assigned selection values for a webform. I customized a stored query to Select the values from the Parameters table. I set up the webform. The result is that the form1.apsx automatically populates each DropDownList task with the pre-assigned values from the 'Parameters' table (for example, the stored values in the 'Parameters' table 'Home', 'Business', and 'Other' populate the drop down list for 'Type').
The programming to move the selected data from form1.aspx to a new table in the SQL database perplexes me. If possible, I would like to use the form1.aspx to Postback (or Insert) the "selected" data to a *new* column in a *new* table (such as writing the data to the 'CustomerType' column in the 'Customers' table; I clearly do not want to write back to the 'Parameters' table). Any help to get over this hurdle would be deeply appreciated.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSelect Column From Table 2 If Not Exist On Table 1
Oct 16, 2014I am trying to pull a min value of a date column from table 1, if table 1 does not have any record I need pull a date column from table 2. Table 2 will always have a unique record ID (No duplicate ID's).
Table 1
ID date
1 1/1/2014
1 1/5/2014
Table 2
ID date
1 1/5/2014
2 10/15/2014
Here is the desired result when running for ID = 1 (select Min(date) where ID = 1, I should be getting 1/1/2014 from Table 1.
If I am running the same query where ID=2 then I should be getting 10/15/2014 from Table 2. So basically I need to check if a value exists on Table 1 first, if there is no value on Table 1 and then to grab the value from Table 2.
Select ROWS In Table A That Aren't In Table B
Jan 28, 2008I've been scratching my head over this one.
It should be pretty easy to do, but I keep going over the same problem.
I have 3 tables (Suppliers, Categories & Suppliers_To_Categories).
Suppliers_To_Categories contains which suppliers are related to which categories.
The set-up is so (simplified):
Suppliers
id
1 Supplier 1
2 Supplier 2
3 Supplier 3
4 Supplier 4
Categories
id
1 Category A
2 Category B
3 Category C
4 Category D
Suppliers_To_Categories
id supplierId categoryId
1 1 1
1 1 2
1 1 3
2 2 3
3 3 1
3 3 3
What I am after is an SQL statement which tells me for a particular category, which suppliers ARE NOT related to it, so they can be assigned.
E.g.
Category D has Suppliers 1-4 unassigned
Category C has Supplier 4 unassigned
Category B has 2, 3, 4 unassigned
Category A has Supplier 2, 4 unassigned etc...
I've got the other side of the SQL statement which tells me which suppliers are assigned to a category (see below):
SELECT Suppliers.*
FROM CatToSupplier INNER JOIN
Suppliers ON CatToSupplier.supplierId = Suppliers.supplierId
WHERE (CatToSupplier.CatId = @CatId)
This is probably really easy, but I've become unstuck!

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhich Method For SELECT Is Prefered?
Nov 19, 2007Hi guys,
I'm just curious if there is a prefered method when it comes to SELECT statements that include multiple tables. I have two versions:
SELECT FirstName, LastName, ProductName, SalePrice
FROM SALES, PRODUCTS, CUSTOMERS
WHERE MONTH(SaleDate) = '2'
AND YEAR(SaleDate) = '2005'
AND SALES.ProductID = PRODUCTS.ProductID
AND SALES.CustomerID = CUSTOMERS.CustomerID;
SELECT FirstName, LastName, ProductName, SalePrice
FROM CUSTOMERS
INNER JOIN SALES ON CUSTOMERS.CustomerID = SALES.CustomerID
INNER JOIN PRODUCTS ON PRODUCTS.ProductID = SALES.ProductID
WHERE MONTH(SaleDate) = '2'
AND YEAR(SaleDate) = '2005';
Could you tell me if either of these methods are favored over the other or if there is another way of producing the same output that is used over both these methods.

How To Select Value From Table B To Replace Value In Table A
May 29, 2001I have an automatic data collection system. The large majority of the time, all data is electronically gathered. On occasion, the need arises to substitute a manually entered value into the data when a valuable piece of information cannot be electronically secured. When a piece of data is open to substitution, it arrives with a value of -9999 (a value not naturally occuring) in Table A. I want to be able to use a trigger on table A to get its substitution value from a corresponding column (Same name) in Table B. Tables A & B will have an identical schema. A is raw data, B is the manually updated table. Any value in the raw table with the content of -9999 gets its replacement from Table B.
I'm open to any ideas!!
