Looping Through A Table Sorting And Updating

Jun 3, 2008

Hello,

I am a little new at T-SQL. and I could use a suggestion on the best way to accomplish this task. I have an application where I must loop through a table in Microsoft SQL Server 2005, find the records that match and break them up into groups where the value of the Thickness field is in groups of ( <=8).

Lets say I have 100 records and the table contains sacks marked A, B, C, and D. Within Sack A is 6 records. Each of the 6 records has a thickness column with a value between 0.5 to 1.0 (my example shows 2) I have a column called bundle that I must update to show a 1 for the first group of (<=8) inches thick a 2 for the second group (<=8) inches thick and so on. Then repeat the process for sacks B, C and D.

The table itself has the following
Order Number |Zipcode |Sack(A, B, C,or D)| Thickness |Bundle|
1 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL |
2 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL
3 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL
4 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL
5 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL
6 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL |
7 |19721 |B | 4 |NULL |
8 |19721 |B | 3 |NULL |
9 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |
10 |19721 |B | 5 |NULL |
11 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |
12 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |

What I need to do is sum the thickness until it gets to less than 8 and update bundle with a 1. The result would be 4 records and the table would then look like this:

Order Number |Zipcode | Sack(A, B, C,or D)| Thickness |Bundle|
1 |19809 |A | 2 |1 |
2 |19809 |A | 2 |1
3 |19809 |A | 2 |1
4 |19809 |A | 2 |1
5 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL
6 |19809 |A | 2 |NULL |
7 |19721 |B | 4 |NULL |
8 |19721 |B | 3 |NULL |
9 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |
10 |19721 |B | 5 |NULL |
11 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |
12 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |

Notice there are two records that are not bundles for sack A. I need to place them in a separate bundle called 2. The result will be as follows
Order Number |Zipcode | Sack(A, B, C,or D)| Thickness |Bundle|
1 |19809 |A | 2 |1 |
2 |19809 |A | 2 |1
3 |19809 |A | 2 |1
4 |19809 |A | 2 |1
5 |19809 |A | 2 |2
6 |19809 |A | 2 |2 |
7 |19721 |B | 4 |NULL|
8 |19721 |B | 3 |NULL
9 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL
10 |19721 |B | 5 |NULL |
11 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |
12 |19721 |B | 2 |NULL |

Now Sack A is complete so I must move on to Sack B. The first two records total to 7 and adding another record would move the thickness past 8 so I must update the bundle for only the first two records with a 1. The next two total to seven also and the following 2 total to four. We must set those bundles to 1, 2, 3 as follows

1 |19809 |A | 2 |1 |
2 |19809 |A | 2 |1
3 |19809 |A | 2 |1
4 |19809 |A | 2 |1
5 |19809 |A | 2 |2
6 |19809 |A | 2 |2 |
7 |19721 |B | 4 |1 |
8 |19721 |B | 3 |1 |
9 |19721 |B | 2 |2 |
10 |19721 |B | 5 |2 |
11 |19721 |B | 2 |3 |
12 |19721 |B | 2 |3|

These scenarios just keep repeating until the last record

Thank you for any help you can give me

Looping Thru A Table And Updating The Contents

Nov 8, 2007

Hello, Its hard trying to explain this.
I have 3 tables
Table 1 is where the users are stored, each user has a username and a userrank
Table 2 is where the points that decides the userrank are stored
Table 3 contains the available userranks like this
 
Table 1 (user_list) looks briefly like this:username nvarchar(20),userrank int, -- Reference to Table3 id... alot more fields
Table 2 (settings_profile) looks like this:username nvarchar(20),total_active_points int,... some more fields
Table 3 (data_ranks) looks like this:id int primary key auto inc,rankname nvarchar(20),min_pts int,max_pts int
 
Points get added to table 2 whenever they do something that generates points on the site. Points also get withdrawn every 7 days, so a user can only collect points for 7 days, on the 8th day, all points he earned on the 1st day is reduced from the current points with this code:
WHILE (SELECT @username = username, @id = id, @temp1 = ap_sentmails, @temp2 = ap_createdthreads, @temp3 = ap_createdanswers, @temp4 = ap_signguestbook, @temp5 = ap_blogcomment, @temp6 = ap_createblogentry, @temp7 = ap_profilefirsttime, @temp8 = ap_profilephoto, @temp9 = ap_activateguestbook, @temp10 = ap_addnewfriend, @temp11 = ap_superguruvote, @temp12 = ap_forumtopicvote, @temp13 = ap_labervote, @temp14 = ap_funstuffitemvote, @temp15 = ap_movievote, @temp16 = ap_actorvote, @temp17 = ap_money_new WHERE (created < Dateadd(dd, -7, @todaysdate))BEGINSET @sum = 0SET @sum = @temp1 + @temp2 + @temp3 + @temp4 + @temp5 + @temp6 + @temp7 + @temp8 + @temp9 + @temp10 + @temp11 + @temp12 + @temp13 + @temp14 + @temp15 + @temp16 + @temp17UPDATE settings_profile SET total_active_points = total_active_points - @sum WHERE (username = @username)DELETE FROM konto_daylist WHERE (id = @id)END
Now my question is this, i want to loop thru the table A, collect all usernames inside of it, then run it against table b and table c to determine the current rank of the user.Something like this...
DECLARE @username nvarchar(20)DECLARE @pts int, @rank int
...something that starts a loop thru table A (user_list) and get the username into @username...
SELECT @pts = total_active_points  FROM settings_profile WHERE (username = @username)-- Determine the rank here, by compairing the points the user have against the pointstabel in table data_ranksSELECT @rank = id FROM data_ranks WHERE (pts_min => @pts AND pts_max < @pts)UPDATE user_list SET rank = @rank WHERE (username = @username)
...next persion in the loop...
This SP runs once a day and will first reduce the points from 8days ago, then it will run thru all the users and determine their new rank...
But how do i loop thru all the users? with a cursor?

Updating A Table By Looping Through All The Record

Oct 1, 2004

The process of adding a column with DEFAULT (0) to a table that has 15million records takes a despicable amount of time (too much time) and the transaction log of the database grew to an unacceptable size. I would like to accomplish the same task using this procedure:

·Add the column to the table with null value.
·Loop through the table (500000 records at a time) and SET the value in the newly added column to 0.
·Issue a commit statement after each batch
·Issue a checkpoint statement after each batch.
·Alter the table and SET the column to NOT Null DEFAULT (0)


Here is my Sample script


ALTER TABLE EMPLOYEE ADD EZEVALUE NUMERIC (9,6) NULL
Go

Loop
UPDATE EMPLOYEE SET EZEVALUE = 0
Commit Tan
CHECKPOINT
END (Repeat the loop until the rows in EMPLOYEE have the value 0)

Go

ALTER TABLE EMPLOYEE ALTER COLUMN EZEVALUE NUMERIC (9,6) NOT NULL DEFAULT (0)


My problem is with the loop section of this script. How do I structure the loop section of this script to loop through the employee table and update the EZEVALUE column 500000 rows at a time, issue a Commit Tran and a CHECKPOINT statement until the whole table has been updated. Does anyone out there know how to accomplish this task? Any information would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance

Updating Hits Without Looping

Sep 6, 2007

Hi.
This is my first attempt at a using stored procedures and I'm a bit confused.
I'm trying to follow as many best practices as I can to improve speed, security and scalability. However, I can't find a solution to what I think should be a simple problem.
I have a search page where users enter the criteria of properties they are interested in (bedrooms, price etc...). That takes them to a results page where the properties are displayed.
The problem is that I want the amount of times each property has been shown on the results page to be tracked so the property owner gets statistics.
The property details are all held in a single table along with the amount of times each property has be shown:
Table Name:   zk_Property_USA




ID
INT


User_ID
INT


Property_Type
TINYINT


Market_Status
TINYINT


Price
INT


Bedrooms
TINYINT


Address_State
VARCHAR


Address_Location
VARCHAR


Property_Description
VARCHAR


Searched
INT
0

Contacted
INT
0
I'm trying to find a way to SELECT all the property details to be returned to my results page and UPDATE the "Searched" field by 1 without re-scanning the table for the UPDATE.
Is there a way to update "Searched" at the time when the record is chosen to be a result? I am using SQL Server 2005 and Visual Basic ASP.NET 2.0.
Many Thanks

Updating A Table By Both Inserting And Updating In The Data Flow

Sep 21, 2006

I am very new to SQL Server 2005. I have created a package to load data from a flat delimited file to a database table. The initial load has worked. However, in the future, I will have flat files used to update the table. Some of the records will need to be inserted and some will need to update existing rows. I am trying to do this from SSIS. However, I am very lost as to how to do this.

Any suggestions?

Get Value By Looping Through Table Column

Apr 5, 2014

Here are two tables:

TABLE_A
[ac] [dest]
1 A
1
1
2
2
3
3 B
3

(ac=1, dest=A; ac=3, dest=B)

The space between '1' and 'A' isn't showing up correctly.

TABLE_B
[fleet] [ron]
1 A
1 A
1 A
1 A
1 A
2
2
2
2
3 B
3 B

(fleet=1, ron=A; fleet=3, ron=B; etc.etc.)

I would like to fill TABLE_B's column "ron" by referring to TABLE_A's column "dest".ac = fleet, and for each ac, I would like to loop through the 'dest' column in TABLE_A from top to bottom to get the top most value. If there are no values (like with ac = 2), then value is blank.

For 1, the value is A.
For 2, the value is blank.
For 3, the value is B.

Therefore, in TABLE_B, for all 'ron' for fleet=1, the value is filled A.
For all 'ron' for fleet=2, the value is blank.
For all 'ron' for fleet=3, the value is B.

- create variable 'v'
- where ac=fleet, loop through 'dest' from top to bottom to get top-most value. variable 'v' = the value.
- in TABLE_B, for each ac=fleet, insert variable 'v' into the 'ron' column

Looping Through Table To Exec An SP Many Times

Dec 31, 2006

Hi,
If i have an SP called mySP that accepts one parameter @param
If I have a table of paramaters with only one column like this:
Param1
Param2
..
ParamN

How do I do if I want to execute the SP on all the table fields:
some thing like this:
Exec my SP 'Param1'
Exec mySP 'Param2'
...
Exec mySP 'ParamN'
I want that automatically since the parameters are going to be in a table called myTblParams
Notice that I don t want to pass all the parameters to the SP just once but only one value each time I execute the SP since mySP ccepts only one parameter.

Thanks a lot for guidelines

Sorting And Grouping Question By Allowing Users To Select The Sorting Field

Feb 11, 2007

I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.

So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.



Any suggestions would help.

Reporting Services :: Horizontal Axis Show Last Value In First And Last Space When Sorting A-z But Shows Correctly When Sorting Z-a

Jul 10, 2015

SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int.  When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end.  The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order.  The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Create Separate MS Excel Files By Looping Through Large Table

Jun 24, 2014

I have a master table containing details of over 800000 surveys made up of approximately 400 distinct document names and versions. Each document can have as few as 10 questions but as many as 150. Each question represents one row.

My challenge is to create a separate spreadsheet for each of the 400 distinct document names and versions containing all the rows and columns present in the master table. The largest number of rows would be around 150 and therefore each spreadsheet will not be very big.

e.g. in my sample data below, i will need to create individual Excel files named as follows . . .
"Document1Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 6 rows for the 6 questions relating to Document 1 version 1
"Document1Version2.xlsx" containing all the column names and 8 rows for the 8 questions relating to Document 1 version 2
"Document2Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 4 rows for the 4 questions relating to Document 2 version 1

I assume that one of the first things is to create a lookup of the distinct document names and versions assign some variables and then use this lookup to loop through and sequentially filter the master table data ready for creating the individual Excel files.

--CREATE TEMP TABLE FOR EXAMPLE

IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#excelTest') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #excelTest
CREATE TABLE #excelTest (
[rowID] [nvarchar](10) NULL,
[docName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,

[Code] .....

--Output

rowIDdocNamedocVersionquestionblankField
1document11q1NULL
2document11q2NULL
3document11q3NULL

Sorting Makes Table Invisible

Sorting + Paging A Large Table In Stored Procedure

May 6, 2007

As I said above, how do I put sorting + paging in a stored procedure.My database has approximately 50000 records, and obviously I can't SELECT all of them and let GridView / DataView do the work, right? Or else it would use to much resources per one request.So I intend to use sorting + paging at the database level. It's going to be either hardcode SQL or stored procedures.If it's hardcode SQL, I can just change SQL statement each time the parameters (startRecord, maxRecords, sortColumns) change.But I don't know what to do in stored procedure to get the same result. I know how to implement paging in stored procedure (ROW_NUMBER) but I don't know how to change ORDER BY clause at runtime in the stored procedure.Thanks in advance.PS. In case "ask_Scotty", who replied in my previous post,   http://forums.asp.net/thread/1696818.aspx, is reading this, please look at my reply on your answer in the last post. Thank you.

I found unpleasant issue within RS:

1. Imagine RS report with Table(with interactive sorting) whose visibility is toggled by Textbox:


2. After sorting the Table the Textbox is getting collapsed making the Table invisible. But the Table should remain visible.

Is this MS bug? Are there workarounds?

If my question is not understandable I can send simple *.rdl report with sample.

Problem i am facing is that, whenever i try to modify (i.e. add new columns) tables in the database,
it gives me error saying that,

"There is already an object named 'PK_xxx_Temp' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider".

where xxx is the table name.

I have done quite a bit research on the problem and have also searched on the net for solution but still
the problem persist.

Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciated.

ALTER, CREATE, DROP cannot be used in a trigger, I guess.

Tabel1
ID, Name, Asset, Date, Active
---------------------------------
1, A, 10 , 01/08/04 Y
1, B, 16 , 06/08/04 Y
1, C, 12 , 07/08/04 Y
1, D, 13 , 10/08/04 Y
2, E, 10 , 15/08/04 Y
2, F, 11 , 16/08/04 Y
2, Y, 12 , 01/08/04 N
2, G, 15 , 17/08/04 Y
3, H, 13 , 19/08/04 Y
3, I, 15 , 02/08/04 N

Table2 after update
ID, Name1, Asset1, Date1, Name2, Asset2, Date2, Name3, Asset3, Date3, Name4, Asset4, Date4
---------------------------------
1,B,16,06/08/04,D,13,10/08/04,C,12,07/08/04,A,10,01/08/04
2,F,11,16/08/04,E,10,15/08/04,blank,blank, blank..
3,H,13,19/08/04,blank, blank...

As you can see, code must select only active('Y') names in table1 arrange in descending order of asset for each ID and updates(or insert into?)table2.
Please help me with code
