Making A League
Apr 14, 2007
Hello,
I have a table of data with the following columns:
Participant
Result (win or lose)
The table has other data in, but I want to make a league to sort by the amounts of wins.
For example:
Participant Won Played
A 5 10
B 4 7
C 3 3
I want this to show up on web page.
I was hoping to do this through the source code on the web page, but I am struggling to do it.
Is there a better way to do this, or a place where I can see an example of the code.
Many Thanks,
Oliver

Hi Everyone,
Firstly, best to mention that i am a relative novice when it comes to SQL.... there is sooooooo much info out there that it is just becoming more and more confusing.
My first question must seem like a no-brainer.... but if i am running an access database with ASP based SQL scripting does that automatically mean i am using MS SQL? Does My SQL only work with PHP??
My next query may be a CHALLENGE that might inspire a response:
I have been busy beevering away trying to build a fantasy soccer league for my work mates. It uses ASP scripting which encompasses SQL statements that relates to an access database. 2 tables 'Teamdata' and 'Players'.
'Team data' includes the manager name, team name, and the name of each player from 1 to 11 in seperate columns
'Players' includes all of the possible players (approx 200)names, cost, and points accumulated.
After a lot of time and effort i managed to write an SQL script that returned the points for each team based on the players they have selected. and then list them in order based upon points received for the overall player selection of each team.
My Script:
SELECT DISTINCT(SELECT SUM(playerpoints) FROM players WHERE Teamdata.Player1 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player2 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player3 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player4 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player5 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player6 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player7 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player8 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player9 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player10 = players.player OR Teamdata.Player11 = players.player) AS Points, Team, manager FROM Teamdata, players
Problem 1: The teams are listed in ascending order, i.e. the team with the most points appears at the bottom.... ideally it needs to be at the top of the table. Although i have attempted using the ORDER BY 'points' DESC command it seems to have no effect because it conflicts with DISTINCT? I used the DISTINCT function because without it i had lots of teams being repeated..... can anyone solve this problem
Problem 2: Although my script works its takes absoloooooooooooooooootely ages!! What am i doing wrong? how can i make the process of selecting the data quicker??
If anyone can spare the time to help it would be greatly appreciated
I look forward to any responses.....
Cheers,
Dan

I hope I can explain this somewhat coherantly. Here goes..
I have a products database. I want to select product details for items having distinct style codes. IE if there are 20 products that different from one another in some way, and 3 different style numbers throughout them, I want to end up with 3 products selected. I don't care which ones, as long as i have a sample product for each style.
I've attemped to use GROUP BY to do this, but it's not giving me what I want. I managed to get right number of products, but the query seems to have mixed and matched the fields together in an undesireable way. I guess this kinda makes sense, since providing aggregate functions for each of the extra fields is necessary.
SO THE QUESTION IS: How do I select (number of distinct styles) products, and still keep the records in tact as they should be?
Here is a sample...
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Min(team) as team, min(pict) as pict, min(colors) as colors, min(league) as league, min(product_description) as product_description, min(category) as category, min(subcategory) as subcategory, min(style) as style
FROM prods
WHERE (style='style1' or style='style2' or style='style3')
AND league='leaguex'
AND soldout=''
GROUP by style
ORDER by style
Thanks very much for any help!! I'm sure I'm going about this all wrong.

Hello Everyone,
I have a dimension that has the following members:
Directors
Senior Managers
Managers
Senior Associates
Associates
But they way they need to be displayed includes subtotals. Senior Managers and Managers are placed into Management and Staff is a total of everyone except Directors. They should appear on the report in something like this:
Directors 10
Senior Managers 15
Managers 9
Management 24
Senior Associates 17
Associates 40
Staff 81
Total 91
What is the best way to do this? Right now I am using a matrix because I am also showing headcounts by Period. Is a table a better way to go? Is it something that should be done in my dimension?
I can do the Total part. I am just not sure how to make the subtotals inbetween the other lines.
Thank you for the help.

I have been reading up on how replicating schema changes work, but I must be missing something. When I configured a database for replication, it added a rowguid column to each table. This I understand.
I want to test making a schema change and replicating that change. For example, I tried to add a column to an existing table. When I tried to save the table i get the following error:
"Error validating the default for column rowguid".
"- Unable to modify table.
It is invalid to drop the default constraint on the rowguid column that is used by merge replication.
The DDL operation failed inside merge DDL replication manipulation.
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted."
So, what am I missing? Do i need to drop the rowguid column, add the new column, and then re-add the rowguid column?
Many thanks...

Hi,
I have the following flow in which i am looping through a folder containing textfiles
Foreach loop
[
ScriptTask -> DataFlowTask -> Execute SQL
]
In my ScriptTask, i am checking the file validity. Now if the file is found incorrect, I do not want the DataFlowTask and other to execute. Instead i want the file to be moved to Error and the loop to proceed with the next file. If the file validity is correct, DFT and ExecuteSQL execute. How do i do this?
Some explanation supported by examples would help.

I have a datagrid in my file along with an Update Query.
My Update Query basically adds the numerical values in two columns
together when the page is loaded. This means whenever the page is
Refreshed the Update query is fired.
This is my Update Query (which is in an Stored Procedure):
UPDATE Rental
SET TotalFee = ExtraFee + TotalFee
WHERE DaysOverdue >= 0
I have declared my query in the 'Page_Load' part of the coding, because
I want the query to run automatically. Not manually by a button.
My main question is that how can I get the query to run only once a day, no matter how many times the page is loaded.

Playing with DTS for converting text data to SQL Server table and sending email messages. Package is to be scheduled hourly.
1. Is there any easy way to force DTS to choose Success or Failure based on a SQL Task? Wish to check contents of a table for new values and branch accordingly in DTS.
2. When new records are brought in I wish to build a custom email message rather than attaching a text file. Any Idea how to build a custom message?
I am attempting to auto scan an error log on a Unix based system and email myself when errors occur. This is an exercise to test scheduling of jobs, bridging between technologies and sending out meaningful messages based on the process via email.
Thanks,

Is there any possible way to make a row delete itself at a certain date and time? I am tring to make an "On_Sale" table and perticular items(rows) must expire at a certain Date and time. I have an idea to delete a row when it expires but it will cause an extra burden on my application. So is it possible to have SQL responsible for deleting a row at a certain time and date?
Also, I have another question:
when I asign a PK Identity to a certain column is there a way I can enforce consecutive order of PK values? For example if I delete a row and the PK value was 5 it will reoder the whole table so all PK values are in consecutive order:
PK-----------Item----------price
1------------XYZ1----------$$$$
2------------XYZ2----------$$$$
3------------XYZ3----------$$$$
when I delete PK 2 this is what happens
PK-----------Item----------price
1------------XYZ1----------$$$$
3------------XYZ3----------$$$$
the PKs are not in consecutive order
What I want is this to happen: when PK 2 is deleted I need it to show as follows
PK-----------Item----------price
1------------XYZ1----------$$$$
2------------XYZ3----------$$$$
The PKs stay in consecutive order.
See how the PK are still in consecutive order?

hi. i'm trying to make a report in asp that sums up a whole bunch of statistics. the report is quite lengthy and takes about 2 minutes to load. i thought i would solve that problem by making a table to dump the statistics into instead of calculating the statistics every time the report is viewed. this way, the page would just read the table with the statistics already put in it. these statistics would be updated every day or two so i don't need anything up to the minute.however, i have run into a small problem which is actually updating the information in the table. my new table is called OfficeReport and it looks like this:UserID Stat1 Stat2 Stat3 ...... Stat3223 0 0 0 056 0 0 0 072 0 0 0 0this is a query for one of the statistics i am currently using:SELECT DefendantCase.UserID, COUNT(DefendantCase.UserID) AS CountOfUserID FROM DefendantCase LEFT JOIN UserDescription ON DefendantCase.UserID=UserDescription.UserID WHERE UserDescription.Status=1 AND UserDescription.UserType=1GROUP BY DefendantCase.UserIDif i run this query, this is what i get:UserID CountOfUserID54 2160 1052 294 427 22how can i modify this query so its output updates the same UserID column in the OfficeReport table? Thanks!

SELECTDATEDIFF(dd,'2007-04-01 00:00:00.000',GetDate()) AS 'Days Left'
This works fine, however: After the 1st April 2007 I want to start counting down the days till 1st April 2008 - and so on and so forth.
How can I do this? Hopefully you understand my question - if not, ask me any questions needed!

I would actually like to make a copy to table B, then run my changes into B, make sure all is correct, and then transfer the revised data from B over to table A replacing its data. What approach would be best here to accomplish this?

Hi,
I have some questions about making muliple T-SQL queries againt an SQL-server. I retrieve all rows from an SQL-server table called ActivityGroup and add the result to a Radio Button List. Suppose, I also wish to add the total sum of every "ActivityGroup" value to the Radio Button List. I guess this ought to be done using a SELECT COUNT statement and then retrieved using the Executescalar method?
The question is do I need to copy the code for the SELECT ('*) statement and make the neccessary changes for the SELECT COUNT statement and Executescalar method or is there a more simple way? Is it possible to use two command statements in the same code block?
The total sum is going to be calculated using the values from both an SQL-server and an Access database. The OleDb sample below is what I refer to as a code block. I appreciate any help!
string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ServetteConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
string sQuery = "SELECT * FROM Aktivitetsgrupper where aktivitetsid = " + Request["AktivitetsId"];
OleDbConnection oOleDbConnection = new OleDbConnection(connectionString);
oOleDbConnection.Open();
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(sQuery, oOleDbConnection);
OleDbDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
int test = 12;
while (reader.Read())
{
rblAktivitetsgrupper.Items.Add(new ListItem(String.Format("{0}, platser", reader["aktivitetsGruppNamn"]), reader["aktivitetsGruppID"].ToString()));
}
