I need to see whether there's any unapproved timecards, and if so compile a list of supervisors that need to make approvals.
my original statement was:
SELECT DISTINCT
EmployeeMaster.SupervisorNumber
, SupervisorMaster.EmailAddress
, SupervisorMaster.EmployeeMasterNumber
, RTRIM(SupervisorMaster.FirstName) + ' ' + RTRIM(SupervisorMaster.LastName) AS SupervisorName
FROM
Cards
LEFT OUTER JOIN EmployeeMaster ON Cards.EmployeeNumber = EmployeeMaster.EmployeeNumber
LEFT OUTER JOIN SupervisorMaster ON EmployeeMaster.SupervisorNumber = SupervisorMaster.EmployeeNumber
WHERE
(Cards.SupApp = 0)
And this worked great until they asked for a date range.
If I am correct the distinct will look for the first occurrence that meets the select criteria and ignore the rest of the rows that meet the criteria. Leading to the possiblity that the first row is not a timecard that meets the date requirement, and even though other timecards exist that will satisfy the condition, they will not be tested because of the Distinct clause.

I have a products database on my online store that records 2 columns for each product:DateAdded: the datetime the item was addedTotalSales: the total sales generated since the item was added to the siteI have already figured out how to calculate best sellers with this formula:TotalSales / TotalDays I am adding a computed column to my database, I need to calculate the followingTotalSales / ("this is where i need something to use today's date and calculate how many days it has been since it was added")Then if I can do that, I will automatically have a column that will give me a number ranking each of my items.

Hi everyone and thank for taking the time to read, I am new to this forum and to SQL to. I am taking a programmers course, i learned mainly C# for now, but i also know a bit of C and C++ and linux programming, i am going through my SQL school book, (SQL Server 2000 design and implementation) and i am trying a simple IF statement. heres how it goes DECLARE @P CHAR SET @P=NULL
SELECT @P=Powerlck FROM vehicle IF (@P=NULL) PRINT 'got you'
powerlck is a collum taking char(1) which is either Null or 1. there is five entry all but one is set to 1, null is the default
when i run this script, it does not print 'got you'
but if i run select * from vehicle it will show one with <NULL> value.
I've been struggling with this problem, hope someone can help. I'm using SQL Server 2005 Express. I have a simple database with 7 tables (m64,m67,m69,m71,m87) all have an identical design(column name, type). All I want to do is pull out one recordset (if it's in that table) from each of the tables.
This is what I have: "SELECT * FROM m64, m67, m69, m71, M87 WHERE P_N Like '" & Request.Querystring("P_N") & "'"
hi, everyone, When I update a row that does not exist in a table using VBscript and SQL 2003 server, the row is automatically added to the table. Why does this happen? Can somebody help me? Thanks in advance!
I am looking to modify this Case Statement. Where it says ELSE '' I need it to display the actual contents of the cell. 1 = Yes , 0 = No, (any other integer) = actual value.

Hello and thanks for looking! I have this sql stament:
Dim strInsertCommand As String = "INSERT INTO CurrentDrawVar (Username, GamesBought, DateLastBuy) VALUES ('" & UserID & "', '" & gamestobuy & "', '" & Now & "')"
It works great and inserts into a database like it should. My question is where can I insert a WHERE stament into it so that I can insert this data over information that already exists in the database. FOr instance. I have a user grogo21 and in this row I want to insert gamestobuy and now. Where can i put this and is the stament below right:
WHERE Username = 'grogo21'
I tried putting it after the parenthases after the values but it doesnt work. Thanks alot!!
This should be terribly simply, but I just can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong. I have a table that logs usage of a few software licenses in my division, so it has columns for the username, the license, and the date/time checked out and date/time checked in. I have written a quick SQL query that totals how much time all the users have spent in three of the licenses during this work week. It works fine. But now I just want to limit that query to those users who have used those licenses for more than two hours.
Sounds simple enough, but I must be overlooking something obvious. I have tried [Minutes]>120 in both a WHERE and a HAVING statement, but neither worked. I have also tried changing the name of the column to something other than Minutes in the off case that there might be some kind of keyword confusion, but it didn't work. I have also tried various other unlikely fixes but continually get the error "Invalid Column Name 'Minutes'".
Any help would be very appreciated since this is driving me nuts. The code that works is below.
Declare @datMin datetime Declare @datMax datetime
set @datMin=DateAdd(mi, -(DatePart(hh,Getdate())*60 + DatePart(mi,GetDate())),--Gets the current minute of the day DateAdd(dd,-datepart(dw,GetDate())+1,GetDate()))--Gets First Day of the Week at this time
set @datMax=DateAdd(mi, 1439-(DatePart(hh,Getdate())*60 + DatePart(mi,GetDate())), GetDate())
Select UserName, Sum(Case When DateOut<@datMin and DateIn<@datMax and DateIn>@datMax Then datediff(n, @datMin, DateIn) When DateOut<@datMin and DateIn>@datMax Then datediff(n, @datMin, @datMax) When DateOut>@datMin and DateOut<@datMax and DateIn>@datMax Then datediff(n, DateOut, @datMax) Else datediff(n, DateOut, DateIn) End) as [Minutes] From [Log] Where ((DateOut>=@datMin and DateOut<=@datMax) or (DateIn>=@datMin and DateIn<=@datMax) or (DateOut<@datMin and DateIn>@datMax)) And (License='Viewer' or License='ARC/INFO' or License = 'Editor') --And ([Minutes]>120) Group by UserName --Having ([Minutes]>120) Order by [Minutes] desc
I have several records in a table of "links", which has the fields ID, UserID, Description and URL. I'm trying to select all the records in this table for a specific user. The stored prodecure I'm using is:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.sprocLinkSelect (@UserID uniqueidentifier)
AS
SELECT ID, UserID, description, URL FROM links WHERE UserID = @UserID
When I execute the procedure without "UserID" in the SELECT part of the statement it works and returns the correct rows for the UserID entered as a parameter. However, when UserID is included in the SELECT part of the statement (as above), it says:
"No rows affected. (1 row(s) returned)"
and just shows the column headings, but with no record details beneath. (When the example works as intended, it returns two rows.)
I've tried changing the procedure to take @description as its parameter and return all records with one specific description, and it also only works when UserID isn't included in the SELECT line. I've also tried using SELECT *, but that doesn't seem to work either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm using SQL Express.
Well my problem lies in that I am generating reports with the data I retrieve from my sql database. However my problem resides in the fact that I am generating one report at a time and if I want to grab each entry in the order in which they were produced its no problem.
IE - Using PowerBuilder 10.0 as an IDE for my application to generate reports.
select i_id into :insp_id from inspection where i_id = :index order by i_id asc using sqlca;
But now if I want to grab them in alphabetical order from another table I have problems.
this is the code I am trying to use maybe I am just thinking it through wrong. select s_id into :insp_id from section where s_id = :index order by s_name asc using sqlca;
any help is appreciated. Is there a way to grab each row in alphabetical order?
When I execute following SQL Query Analyzer (SQL 2005) i am getting message 3 times "95 Records effected" in query analyzer message window.
UPDATE dbo.Load_AC_Install SET Load_AC_Install.Rejected_Reason = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Validation_Reason FROM (Load_AC_Install JOIN Load_AC_Install_Rejected ON Load_AC_Install.Hardware_Portfolio_Barcode = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Hardware_Portfolio_Barcode AND Load_AC_Install.Install_Model_Barcode = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Model_BarCode )
After I load "Load_AC_Install" table into Temporary table #Load_Install and When I execute following SQL Query from SQL Query Analyzer using temporary table I am getting message Only 1 time "95 Records effected"
Update #Load_Install SET #Load_Install.Rejected_Reason = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Validation_Reason FROM (#Load_Install JOIN Load_AC_Install_Rejected ON #Load_Install.Hardware_Portfolio_Barcode = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Hardware_Portfolio_Barcode AND #Load_Install.Install_Model_Barcode = Load_AC_Install_Rejected.Model_BarCode )
So My Question is if i use phicical table (dbo.Load_AC_Install) then i get message 3 times, but If i use same data with tempoary table(#load_Install) I get message only one time "95 Records Effected" in query analyzer message window!
Anyone know why?
Thanks for response and please ask me if you still have any questions!
I am very new to sql and would like some help with a simple select statement. I am trying to pull birthdates using the following code. I can get the query to run but some of the dates are not between the parameters. What am i doing wrong?

I've just inherited a system and have some concerns about the speed ofconnections to a remote server (SQL2000). If I do a simple selectstatement on the table below, it takes 14 minutes to retrive 6 millionrows across a 2Mb line. Obviously it's a reasonable amount of data toretrieve, but I would have thought this would be quicker if I'm honest.Run locally, this is 50 seconds.My thoughts are that there may be some issues with our connection (weget general network errors sporadically, which are being looked at),but wanted some thoughts if the performance is acceptable for what itis doing with what is available. I don't think there is a SQL issue,but want to check if this sounds about right.It's early days, so I'm after a general impression of the speed ofretrieval for the amount of data on the available bandwidth. Assuming abest performance scenario, what is the minimum time it should take as abest guess ?ThanksRyanCREATE TABLE [FIELD_VALUES] ([DEALER_DATA_ID] [int] NOT NULL ,[FIELD_CODE] [varchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL ,[FIELD_VALUE] [numeric](15, 5) NULL ,[CHANGED_TYPE] [int] NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_FIELD_VALUES] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([DEALER_DATA_ID],[FIELD_CODE]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 90 ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GO
I am using a simple stored proc shown below which inserts a record and updates the same record field called SortID with the Primary Key Column data of the same record.Everything was working fine until few days back. The site has been deployed 2 years back and was LIVE ever since. We have got thousands of records in this Credits table. The table field called SortID is used for moving the credits up and down. My problem is now after 2 years of deploying the table has got duplicate records, suprisingly a same credit is appearing under different MemberID and with the same SortID. How are these duplicate records inserted with a simple insert statement & update ?? Is this a Locking problem or Transaction problem I have no idea. Any ideas will be of great help Thanks in Advance Stored Procedure Used

In Excel they are showing Sale as -ve quantity and purchase as +ve quantity.
The database has quantity always as +ve figure and a separate column "isPurchase" set to true or false depending on whether purchase or sale.
So I need Derived Column to return a bolean (or int) depending whether quantity is positive or negative. I tried each of the following in the Expression but all of them were invalid expressions.
CASE WHEN [TotalQuantity] > 0 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END
If [TotalQuantity] > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
IIF ([TotalQuantity] > 0, 1,0)
Can anyone help me with correct syntax, or correct Data Flow Transformation if Derived column is wrong.
hello it seems lack of c# skills is getting the better of me here...iv been trying to get this to work for hours now without success. I have just started working in c# so i am a beginner :) all i want to do it query the database, check to see if a title exists, if yes then populate textbox saying 'title in use' but if the title doesnt exists then continue executing rest of code to add the title. You'll notice iv tried to use string variables and sqlDataAdapter but i cant get these to work either...please help so far i have this that keeps giving me the error that my button click is undefined: protected void bookButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){ //string title;try{SqlConnection conn1 = new SqlConnection(); conn1.ConnectionString = "Data Source=Gemma-PC\SQLEXPRESS;" +"Initial Catalog=SoSym;" + "Integrated Security=SSPI;";SqlCommand findTitle = new SqlCommand("SELECT title FROM Publication WHERE title='" + titleTextBox.Text + "';", conn1);

I am receiving funny results from a query. To simplify, I have 2 tables (todayyesterday). Each tbl has the same 8 columns. My query joins the two tables then looks where either of two columns has changed. What is happening is that when checking one of the columns it seems as though sql is flipping the column, causing it to be returned in error.
result set
colA colB colC colD colE colF colG colG (from yesterday) 1 1 a b c d e m 1 1 a b c d m e
So what's happening is that the record above is actually the same record and should not be returned. There is a daily pmt column that changes but I am not using that in the query. Aside from that the two records are identicle.
I have the following situation (with a site that already works and i cannot modify the database architecture and following CrossRef tables -- you will see what i mean by CrossRef tables below)
foreach hotel, there definitely is a crossRef entry in AddressCrossRef and Address tables respectively (since every hotel has an address)
however not all hotels have thumbnail image
hence i have hotel inner join AddressXReff inner join Address ..... however i must have left outer join mediaXref left outer join media
the problem is that if there is no entry in Media or mediaXref, I don't get any results
i tried to get over it by using where (media.mediaTyple like 'thumbnail' or media.mediaType is null) but then i started getting multiple results for each hotel because media's of type movie or full_image or etc... all got returned
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.
