Listing Results Based On The Starting Alphabet
Mar 27, 2007
Hi,
I have a report which lists out the employees' details. I need A-Z links above the report, On clicking on an alphabet, say "C", should display all the employee details whose name starts with the selected alphabet. In the stored procedure we can accept the character and return back those results. But it is not a drill report and we need the result in the same report. Is there any way so that on clicking each link, the output will be shown in the same report. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sonu

I'm having problems with my website. I wish to make a section that has names starting with numbers only. For example, with every name beginning with "A", I have this code:
select * from names where name like "a%" order by name
and this works fine, but I want it so it will only list titles starting with 0-9..

I'm working with SQL Server 2005, and I'm trying to sort the results based on a user selected letter. Say the user selects 'D' to filter his results. I'd like to return the results starting from D followed by E, F, G...Z, A, B, C. What I'm getting is the results for the D entries at the top of the result set, followed by A, B, C, E...Z.
A solution comes to mind that would be very long and db intensive, by querying on 'like 'D', followed by like 'E', followed by like 'F', etc, but I'm sure that there is a much more efficient way to do this. Below is the code that I'm using now.
' where @SortString = 'd' and @Test is a temp Table
BEGIN
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName like @SortString +'%'
Order by CompanyName
Insert into @Test
Select CompanyName,ContactId, CompanyId
from vContacts where CompanyName not like @SortString +'%'
Order by CompanyName
END
Thanks in advance for your help

We run a weekly update on one of our databases from a download (FTP) from our mainframe. What I want to do is start the update job automatically after all of the files are downloaded.
I have a similar process in another database where the users set a flag in an application after they've made certain changes. The job fires daily at 18:00 and checks the value of the flag in the table. It then processes or goes back to sleep. This works great but there is no flag that the users can update in this application.
Thanks in advance.

I would like to generate a working schedule for employees for x-days ahead based on a starting date that the user can enter.
I have got 3 relevant tables:
1. Table X with (1) resourcenumber, (2) starting date working schedule and (3) the daynumber representing the starting date (this is ISO so 1 for Monday, 2 for Tuesday etc.)
2. Table Y has the schedule itself and can hold a 7-days schedule or a 14-days schedule. In case of 7 days schedule there a 14 (!) records with (1) resourcenumber, (2) daynumber, (3) starting hour a.m. (4) ending hour a.m (5) starting hour p.m and (6) ending hour p.m. In case of a 14-days schedule there are 28 records (a.m. and p.m. records)
3. Table Z with resource data.
An example to clarify (for fake employee 100):
Table X:
Resource: 100
Starting date: 2012-03-01 (from this date the schedule will be effective)
Daynumber: 4 (2012-03-01 was a Thursday)
Table Y (Resource has a 14 days schedule because per 2 weeks Monday is an off-day):
Record 1 shows: Resource: 100, Daynumber: 1 (= Monday, working day), AM-Starting hour: 09:00, AM-Ending hour: 13:00, PM-starting hour: 13:30, PM-ending hour: 17:30
Record 2: same but daynumber is 2
Record 3: same but daynumber is 3 etc.
...
Record 8 shows: Resource: 100, Daynumber: 8 (= Monday, off-day), AM-Starting hour: 00:00, AM-Ending hour: 00:00, PM-starting hour: 00:00, PM-ending hour: 00:00
Record 9: same as record 2 but daynumber is 9.
etc.
...
Record 14: same as record 7 but day is 14 (= last day)
The weekend days show as 00:00 for the hours (same as day 8 in example)
I generated the working schedule with a CROSS APPLY function based on the starting date and the x-number of days ahead.
I then evaluate the actual daynumber corresponding with that date with the daynumber in table Y. That works fine with a 7-days schedule but I can't get it fixed with a 14-days schedule. Day 8 in that schedule represents an actual day 1 but how do I know what actual date day 8 is ... I think I have to start with the starting date in table X ...
I think ideally I would like to have the generated days as follows (as an example in case of a 14-days schedule starting 2014-05-01 for 30 days ahead):
2014-05-01 = day 4 (= actual daynumber)
2014-05-02 = day 5
2014-05-03 = day 6
...
2014-05-10 = day 13
2014-05-11 = day 14
2014-05-12 = day 1
2014-05-13 = day 2
2014-05-14 = day 3
...
2014-05-24 = day 13
2014-05-25 = day 14
2014-05-26 = day 1
2014-05-27 = day 2
...
2014-05-31 = day 6
With this done I can compare the actual daynumber with the daynumber in Table Y.
The rownumber that the CROSS APPLY function generates has to be reset to 1 after day 14. I tried PARTITION BY in THE ROW_NUMBER function but to no avail ... The only field I can partition by is the maximum value of the daynumber (14 is the example) but that is not allowed in the rownumber function.

Here's one thats had me and a coworker puzzled. Hopefully it's something simple:
TABLE A: (log of messages)
userid, int
date, datetime
message, varchar(50)
Table A Data:
1, 6/18/2008 @ 2:32:41, This is my message
1, 6/18/2008 @ 2:31:02, This is my message
1, 6/17/2008 @ 7:34:26, This is another message
2, 6/18/2008 @ 2:32:41, This is not his message
2, 6/16/2008 @ 11:21:32, This is my message
TABLE B: (List of users)
userid, int
name, varchar(100)
Table B Data:
1, John
2, Mike
I want to extract the most recent message logged per user, i.e.:
name | date | message
--------|---------------------|-------------------------
John | 6/18/2008 @ 2:32:41 | This is my message
Mike | 6/18/2008 @ 2:32:41 | This is not his message.
I have been unable to come up with a query that can return just the one value. I've tried variants of:
SELECT DISTINCT b.name, a.date, a.message
FROM a INNER JOIN
b ON a.userid = b.userid
including sub-queries and even played with the visual diagrams trying to design this in Enterprise Manager but none of the combinations I tried work. Is there an easy way to do this via a query? I don't have experience with stored procedures. Would that be necessary?
TIA

Hi,
I don't know if anyone has encountered this before but here goes:
I've a select clause below:
result = "Select * from person where LocalName LIKE N'" + queryLocalName + "'"
queryLocalName is an input field that allows the user to search for non-English characters in the database.
What I'm wondering is what kind of effect is the N in the where clause is having?
I can't seem to get it to work when doing it via the web. I've tested in the database itself, got it to work using the SQL Analyser but when testing on the web, it can't find because ? are appearing in the result.

I've managed to get my query to this: Product | Color | Votes
======== ======= =======
Bus Red 10
Bus Blue 5
Train Blue 1Car Red 1
Car Blue 1
I need the most popular color of the product based on the votes for each product, so MAX(Votes) GROUP BY Product solves the Bus and the Train, but I still need a result for the Car? Not really that bothered which Color is picked up, do I need to run another query, because I need another table to join to the results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Pete.

Dear Pals,
I have small requirement in my project.
I need to display the results of the WHERE clause based on percentage/ranking of exact match.
I mean the result set should be displayed based on percentage match.
For example i have the below table.
create table test
(
id int identity(1,1) primary key,
ename varchar(10)
)
insert into test(ename) select 'REG'
insert into test(ename) select 'xyz'
insert into test(ename) select 'abc'
insert into test(ename) select 'Reg'
insert into test(ename) select 'Regsxysn'
insert into test(ename) select 'psReg'
I need the output something similar as below
REG
Reg
Regsxysn
psReg
I have tried out with full text indexing but i could'nt get the required output.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

I am trying to take the results of a query and re-orient them into separate columns.
select distinct
W_SUMMARYDETAILS.FACILITY_ID,
W_SUMMARYDETAILS.REPORTING_YEAR, (2011 - 2014, I want these years broken out into columns for each year)
W_SUMMARYDETAILS.FACILITY_NAME,
W_DEF_SUMMARYDETAILS.REPORTING_PERIOD (2011 - 2013, I want these years broken out into columns for each year)
From W_SUMMARYDETAILS
full outer join W_DEF_SUMMARYDETAILS
on W_SUMMARYDETAILS.FACILITY_ID=W_DEF_SUMMARYDETAILS.FACILITY_ID and
W_SUMMARYDETAILS.REPORTING_YEAR=W_DEF_SUMMARYDETAILS.REPORTING_PERIOD
As of now the query puts all the years into a single column -- one for DEF_SUMMARY and another for SUMMARY.
I am looking to create 7 additional columns for all the individual years in the results instead of just two columns.

What I want to do is run the report which details each enquiry each officer has received but stop running once top 10 officers have the most enquiries are in the results.
The officers are identified using the officer.officer_name field, enquiry.enquiry_number field shows each enquiry record.

i'd like to use ssis on a certain project but am concerned that one of my transformations needs lookup results to be based on actions taken on previous lookups and that the toolkit doesnt really offer something like that.
so, i have a dataflow whose first component extracts certain kinds of data from an xml document.
each row returned by the latter needs a lookup but the results of that lookup may dictate a certain kind of update. The next row's lookup may need to be influenced by the previous row's update.
So I think I have two challenges, 1) combining a lookup and update, 2) making sure the buffer architecture completes one lookup and update before the next lookup begins.

My source table has two columns... Policynum and PolicyStartdate and data looks like..
.
Policynum PolicyStartdate
123G 01/01/2012
456D 02/16/2012
789A 01/21/2012
163J 05/25/2012
Now my output should return based on 3 parameters..
First two parameters are date range... let say @fromdt and @todt
Third parameter is @policynum
Scenario-1: Enter dates in date range param and leave policynum param blank
Ex: policystartdate between '01/01/2012 and '01/31/2012'.... It returns 1st and 3rd rows from above in the output
Scenario-2: enter policy num in policynum param and don't select any dates
Ex: policynum ='456D' It returns 2nd row in the output
Scenario-3: Select dates in date range param and enter policynum in param
Ex: policystartdate between '01/01/2012 and '01/31/2012' and policynum
='163J'. it should return only 4th row even though dates were selected(Override date range when policynum is entered in param and just return specified policynum row in the output)
I need t-sql code to get above results.

I have a table that has multiple transactions for stock items.
This table holds all records relating to items that are inducted onto the system and there movement. For each stock item i am interested in getting the drop destination, if it has one, and only when it follows the sequential order of "Inducted>OnTransport>Dropped" (this sequence isn't always the case). Also note the CreatedDate for the Inducted and OnTransport records for the valid sequences are always the same. Below is a valid sequence for a stock item so i would want to return 'Lane01' for the Destination of this occurrence of the stock item, if this item didn't have a valid drop location then destination would be blank. Also note each stock item can be inducted more than one time per-day.
I think i have managed to build the below sql but it will only do one item at a time, so would have to wrap it in a function. Is there a way of writing a set based select statement that gets all the inducted items and for the ones that do follow the "Inducted>OnTransport>Dropped" return the destination it was dropped at? I've attached scrips below:
DECLARE @StockItemID nVarchar(128)
DECLARE @CreateDate DATETIME
Set @StockItemID='8cbe17da-6079-4170-b27a-41c0d38830f6'
Set @CreateDate = CAST('2015-08-31 13:52:39.890' AS datetime)

I have a table of attributes set up as follows:
ID, Value, Group
1, Football, Sports
1, Baseball, Sports
1, Basketball, Sports
2, Baseball, Sports
3, Football, Sports
1, Lambda Sigma, Greeks
2, Delta Delta, Greeks
etc.
I want a query that will combine that values for each ID into one field per group. So if ID 1 has multiple sports but also a greek attribute, they end up with two rows; the first row containing the combined sports values and the second row the greek valued not combined, because there was only one value in that group for that ID. For example:
ID, Combined Values, Group
1, Football Baseball Basketball, Sports
2, Baseball, Sports
3, Football, Sports
1, Lambda Sigma, Greeks
2, Delta Delta, Greeks

I have a results table that was created from many different sources in SSIS. I have done calculations and created derived columns in it. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to remove duplicate rows from this table without first writing it to a temp sql table and then parsing through it to remove them.
each row has a like key in a column - I would like to remove like rows keeping specific columns in the resulting row based on the data in this key field.
Ideas?
Thanks,
