Join On Similar Data
Feb 23, 2015
Table One is an older database and has the column employee id, which would always consist of first letter of the last name an underscore and a numeric value. So for example, data looks like
employeeID
R_12345678
S_5555555
T_777777
U_7777
Our new data structure simply removed the letter & underscore.
employeeID
12345678
5555555
777777
7777
Now my question is, how could I join on oldDB.employeeID to newDB.employeeID since the data is very similar, but not exactly the same?

Hi, I was wondering wich is teh easiest way to solve this:
I have one data set that comes from a sql query with many columns.
I have another data set that comes from a txt file that I am reading.
Both data set have one column in common (for example ID).
In the sql data set, I have many rows and I want to keep only the ones that have the same ID from the data set of my txt file. It looks like a inner join if we talk in sql terms.
So, which is the easiest way to solve this?
Thanks!

I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.

finding is queries to find duplicate data.Basically I have a picklist table in a database and I have discovered that there are what looks like duplicate data (because the name is the same) but there is a different number on the end, as you can see from an example below.
NO, ENTRY
24, John Doe|26|05768
24, John Doe|26|5768
Do you know if there is a sql query that can be ran against this table that will look through the ENTRY column and select fields that are similar and not duplicates (duplicates can't exist due to PK constraints)

Ok so facebook groups have 100,000's of members. Members can be part of an unlimited number of groups, and a group can have an unlimited number of members.
Comma Deliniated String seems absurd. Many-2-Many Database relationship seems like it won't scale well t the 10's of thousands and 100's of thousands of members (especially if you have 1000-5000 groups). A table for each group would work but thats a bit over the top in my opinion. XML file doesn't seem to be any better than the above options.
I am no database guru, but I can't figure out a scalable method of doing this, be it with or without a database. I need something that can support 10 groups that have 20 members each OR 1000 groups with 100,000 members each.
Any help, suggestions, or kicked in the right direction would be most appreciated.

I have two tables in my database called CartItems and OrderItems. Istore all of a session's shopping cart items in the CartItems tableusing the sessionID as the identifier (called cartID in my DB). Afteran order is placed and is approved, I would like to copy all of theitems in the CartItems table for that given cartID to the OrderItemstable given a new orderID.I will know the cartID and orderID ahead of time and would like tosend them both into a stored procedure and have the transfer takeplace.Example:take this data...CartItems (table)--------------------------------------cartID | itemID | quantity | price--------------------------------------12345 2 1 12.9512345 7 2 17.95and make it this data...OrderItems (table)--------------------------------------orderID | itemID | quantity | price--------------------------------------00001 2 1 12.9500001 7 2 17.95via some stored procedure that I send (@cartID,@orderID)Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

It seems that there should be a solution for my situation, but for the life of me I can't seem to figure it out.
I need to compare two "like" tables, containing similar data. Tbl 1 is "BOOKED" (which is a snapshot of inventory) and tbl 2 is "CURRENT" (the live - working inventory table). If I write my query as follows the the subsequent result is "duplicate" data.
Code Block
SELECT booked.item, booked.bin, booked.quantity, current.bin, current.quantity
FROM BOOKED
LEFT JOIN
CURRENT
ON booked.item = current.item
No matter what type of join I use, there is duplicate data displayed for each table. For example, if there are more bins in the BOOKED table that contain a certain product then the CURRENT table will repeat data and vica versa.
As follows:
Item
Bin
Quantity
Bin
Quantity
12345
A01
500
A01
7680
12345
B01

Y15
2500
Y15
3000
98765
X10
1200
Y15

What I would like to do is display Bin and Quantity only once and the repeating values as NULL or [BLANK]. Or, to display all of the bins from both tables and only the quantities from each table in relation to the bin found in that table, returning a "0" if no quantity exists.
This is what I'm after:
Item
Bin
Quantity
Bin
Quantity
12345
A01

7680

Is this possible? If so, how?
I also might add that it is ok for each table to contain multiple entries for any given item. This is basically being requested as an inventory variance report - inventory before physical count and immediatly after physical count - and will only be run once a year.
-----------------------------------------------
Just thinking out loud here:
What if I created three subqueries, the first containing only BOOKED information, the second containing only CURRENT information and the third being a UNION of both tables? Something like this:
Code Block
SELECT q3.bin, q1.item, ISNULL(q1.quantity, 0) as QTY_BEFORE, ISNULL(q2.quantity, 0) as QTY_AFTER
FROM
(select item, bin, quantity
from BOOKED)q1
Left Join
(select item, bin, quantity
from CURRENT)q2
on q1.item = q2.item
Left Join
(select bin, item
from BOOKED
UNION
CURRENT)q3
on q1.item = q3.item
Order By q1.item
I don't know if I wrote the UNION statement correctly, but I will have to try this when I get back to work...
Any suggestions?

I am working on a school project and have come up against a bit of a sticking point. I am supposed to be creating a very basic OMS, the teacher themselves have said they do not know how to do this (in previous years it has all be done via Access) but apparently I am a lucky one to be doing it in SQL this year.
So I have 2 tables for products in the system
products
+-----------+------------+
|productid |productname |
|Int |varchar(50) |
+-----------+------------+
productdetail
+---------+----------+------------+------+------+
|detailId |productid |description |price |stock |
|Int |Int |Text |Money |Int |
| |FK_From_ | | | |
| |productid_| | | |
| |products | | | |
+---------+----------+------------+------+------+
One of the user requirements of the OMS is to fill a data grid with product name and the product details which I have the query for or rather I have created a view for, which is then queried from a stored procedure.
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[v_stock]
AS SELECT tab_products.productname, tab_productdetails.description, tab_productdetails.image, tab_productdetails.price, tab_productdetails.stock
FROM tab_productdetails INNER JOIN
tab_products ON tab_productdetails.productid = tab_products.productid
The problem I am having is then returning the data from this query into a data grid, I think the reason is because when I attached the stored procedure to a table and then call that procedure via the table adapter there is a mismatch of the schema - specifically the table it is attached to does not contain the column "productName".
I am thinking I need to create a temporary table to fill the data grid with - however, I am not sure how I would create a temporary table.
Is there something I am missing or not done correctly. As far as I can tell the queries work as when I preview them they produce the expected results.

Hi, I was wondering how it is posible to join three data sets from different data flows into one txt file.
Let's explain a little more:
I have 3 dataflows. Each of them connect to sql server and and by a SQL command, they bring data into SSIS.
Each SQL command differ between them. So each data set have different columns (they dont have the same format). Also the amount of columns differ between each one.
What I need is to join the three data sets into one txt file. How can I do this? It is posible to join them with different data set formats into a txt file?
Is this the best way to join different data? It is better to use as many OLE DB Sources are needed instead of different data flows?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to point data that underwent the "merge join" transformation (in one data flow) to the following data flow? I don't want to recreate all that merging, sorting and calling the same sources again in the following data flow if the data that I am using exists in the previous data flow. The merged data is simply too big to export to an excel file, so does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

I have a function that uses the following statement in it
SELECT src_terrier.Areacode, src_terrier.siteref, src_terrier.estatename, src_terrier.Securitised, src_terrier.unitref, src_terrier.unittype,
src_terrier.unittype_count, src_terrier.tenantname, src_terrier.tenantstatus, src_terrier.tenantstatus_count, src_terrier.unitstatus,
src_terrier.unitstatus_count, src_terrier.floortotal, src_terrier.floortotocc, src_terrier.initialvacarea, src_terrier.initialvacnet, src_terrier.TotalRent,
src_terrier.NetRent, src_terrier.FinalRtLsincSC, src_terrier.ErvTot, src_terrier.tenancyterm, src_terrier.landact, src_terrier.datadate,
src_div_mgr.div_mgr, src_portfolio_mgr.portfolio_mgr, src_centre_list.propcat, src_tbl_rental.budgeted_net_rent,
src_tbl_rental.budgeted_occupancy
FROM src_terrier INNER JOIN
src_centre_list ON src_terrier.siteref = src_centre_list.Site_Ref AND src_terrier.Areacode = src_centre_list.Division INNER JOIN
src_div_mgr ON src_centre_list.Division = src_div_mgr.division INNER JOIN
src_portfolio_mgr ON src_centre_list.Portfolio_no = src_portfolio_mgr.portfolio_no LEFT OUTER JOIN
src_tbl_rental ON src_terrier.siteref = src_tbl_rental.site_ref
WHERE (src_terrier.datadate = @dt_src_date) AND
(src_terrier.Areacode = @chr_div) AND
(src_centre_list.Portfolio_no = @vch_portfolio_no) AND
(src_centre_list.propcat = @vch_prop_cat) AND
(src_tbl_rental.site_ref = src_terrier.siteref)
The problem I have is that the 'src_terrier.datadate' is passed through as mm/dd/yyyy (which I do actually want to change to dd/mm/yyyy as that is how the data is stored) however, the src_date within the table src_tbl_rental is only set to 01/mm/yyyy. When I put an inner join on the date element it obviously does not find it as the sample data I am using is as follows
src_terrier = 28/04/2006 and src_tbl_rental is 01/04/2006. Therefore if I pass the same parameter value through the dates are not the same and I get no data at all.
How can I specify that for the purposes of the src_tbl_rental element of the select query, that I only want it to match the mm/yyyy part of the src_date.
Therefore if some passes in
28/04.2006 it will get the records from the terrier table that match that date, and only the records from rental that match the 04/2006 part of the date.
Anybody confused by that , cause I am!

In Simple words i'm looking for some function which is similar to COALESCE function which returns the first NOT NULL value of the fields that were passed as arguments.

Folks, i have to create four fields in every user table within my database:
CREATED_BY VARCHAR(25), CREATED_DATE [DATETIME], MODIFIED_BY VARCHAR(25), MODIFIED_DATE [DATETIME]
There are more than hundred tables, so i wanna automate this. i am tryin to do this in a cursor: please guide!
declare @name VARCHAR (50)
declare cur cursor
fast_forward
for select name from sysobjects where type='u' and status not like '-%'
open cur
WHILE (1=1)
BEGIN
FETCH NEXT
FROM cur
INTO @name
IF @@fetch_status = 0
BEGIN
ALTER TABLE @name
ADD created_by [VARCHAR] (25)
GO
ALTER TABLE @name
ADD created_by [VARCHAR] (25)
GO
ALTER TABLE @name
ADD created_date [DATETIME]
GO
ALTER TABLE @name
ADD modified_by [VARCHAR] (25)
GO
ALTER TABLE @name
ADD modified_date [DATETIME]
END
ELSE
BREAK
END
DEALLOCATE cur
I also want that if one column for a table exists; the other columns should be created rather than it quits.

I have the below in a table - TABLEA
Ref, Date, TIME, Code, Minutes
01117,2012-01-02, 541,BASIC,240.0
01117,2012-01-02, 541,BASIC,105.0
And I am trying to insert this into another table TABLEB but it wont allow as I am getting a duplicates error because of the unique Indexing on the table.
Ref,Date,Time,Code
Ideally if I could run a query on TABLEA so that it would merge and sum the minutes where REF,Date,TIME,CODE are the same.
i.e., the above would become
Ref , Date , TIME, Code, Minutes
01117,2012-01-02, 541,BASIC,345.0
Is this possible?
Another option that would work for me is the TIME column info isnt required to remain at 541.
If there was a count increment on the rows it would allow the import to rum.
ie if the above became
Ref, Date, TIME, Code, Minutes
01117,2012-01-02, 1,BASIC,240.0
01117,2012-01-02 ,2BASIC,105.0
It would also import correctly.
The first option is which I would prefer.

I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.
Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.
I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.
I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.
How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?

I need joining 2 tables and putting the result into a new table.
Table export has the following columns:
Period, Actual, Company, Currency, Account, Amount, a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k
Table cc_split has the following columns:
Company, Fun_Account, CC_Account, x, y, Split
The new table called export2 has exactly the same values as export i.e. :
Period, Actual, Company, Currency, Account, Amount, a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k
So what I need to join from export and split into export2 are company, cc_account (that shall go into account column of export2 together with the account of export) and the amount, which shall be ( split column * amount column of export), the rest values shall be the same.
So what I have so far is
Code:
INSERT INTO EXP_DATA_2(PERIOD, ACTUALITY, COMPANY, CURRENCY, ACCOUNT, AMOUNT,
EXTDIM1, EXTDIM2, EXTDIM3,EXTDIM4,JOURNAL_TYPE,C_COMPANY,
COMPANY,C_DIM, TRANAMOUNT, TRANCURR,REGION, TRANSF_DATE)
SELECT COMPANY, CC_ACCOUNT, SPLIT
FROM EXP_DATA INNER JOIN CC_SPLIT ON EXP_DATA.COMPANY=CC_SPLIT.COMPANY AND
EXP_DATA.ACCOUNT = CC_SPLIT.CC_ACCOUNT
WHERE EXP_DATA.PERIOD IN ('1102', '1103', '1104')]
So at the end basically table exp_data 2, shall have the same values as exp_data but the account column shall include the same values of account column of exp_data plus the values of cc_account of cc_split table. And also the amount column shall be the multiplication of the column split from cc_split * amount of exp_data
I have realised that I need an alias, maybe a for exp_data and b for cc_split.

But before I insert I figure I better make sure the part does not allready exist in the table.
Can a check the command to determine if it has a boolan value of False and if so to INSERT as before? Dim myCommand As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
myCommand.CommandText = "Select PartNumber From Pricing Where PartNumber = '" & var0 & "'"
'myCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Pricing (PartNumber, ListPrice, PartDescription, ProductClassCode, ProductClassDescription, ProductFamilyCode, ProductFamilyDescription, ProductLineCode, ProductLineDescription) VALUES('" & var0 & "', " & var1 & ", '" & var2 & "', '" & var3 & "', '" & var4 & "', " & var5 & ", '" & var6 & "', '" & var7 & "', '" & var8 & "')"

Hi all,

So I want to spool out the out of this script.
SELECT 'ALTER TABLE ' +
QUOTENAME( c.TABLE_NAME ) +
' NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ' +
QUOTENAME( c.CONSTRAINT_NAME ) AS ALTER_SCRIPT
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS AS c
WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'FOREIGN KEY'
Is there a way to store the output of this script in a .sql file so that I could execute it.
Any thoughts will help!
