Good afternoon,
Our application is a kind of Wiki in 3 languages. We store it in 2 tables:
- tblMenu (MenuID, TitleEN, TitleFR, TitleSP, ...)
- tblTopic (TopicID, MenuID, Language, Description, Date, ...)
We would like to have side by side the 3 descriptions. Is this possible to *merge* the 3 corresponding records in tblTopic (let's say with MenuID = 1) into one output record ?
Thank you,
Phil.
If I have a table similar to below
ID Field1 Field2 Field3
01 Red
01 Green
01 Blue
02 Blue
02 Yellow
02 Red
How would I merge the records together to appear as below
ID Field1 Field2 Field3
01 Red Green Blue
02 Blue Red Yellow
Note there will never be 2 Field1's populated for the same ID and also there are many columns so ideally I dont want to have to reference field1 field 2 etc.
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.
Hello,
I have the following Query:
1 declare @StartDate char(8)2 declare @EndDate char(8)3 set @StartDate = '20070601'4 set @EndDate = '20070630'5 SELECT Initials, [Position], DATEDIFF(mi,[TimeOn],[TimeOff]) AS ProTime6 FROM LogTable WHERE 7 [TimeOn] BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate AND8 [TimeOff] BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate9 ORDER BY [Position],[Initials] ASC
The query returns the following data:
Position Initials ProTime -------------------------------------------------- -------- ----------- ACAD JJ 127 ACAD JJ 62 ACAD KK 230 ACAD KK 83 ACAD KK 127 ACAD TD 122 ACAD TJ 127
What I'm having trouble with is the fact that I need to return a results that has the totals for each set of initials for each position. For Example, the final output that I'm looking to get is the following:
Postition Initials ProTime
ACAD JJ 189ACAD KK 440ACAD TD 122ACAD TJ 127
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
I have a sql statement that joins two tables and I get back a few thousand records when I run it in query tool in management studio.
But when I use SSIS merge join to join the two tables my output is 0 records.
I did sort the key column in both tables by setting 'sortkeyposition' property to 1 in advanced editor for output of both tables.
however the merge join returns nothing to my destination tables. Also I am doing a inner join. The task runs without error but returns nothing as well.. any ideas?
Hello,
I am having problems with my sql merge replication. Whenever a user syncs up to my main database, most of their records are deleted instead of being merged.
Or the records on the main database are inserted and it replaces the whole table with the records on the remote laptops. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? Someone please help me.

skip locked records in a MERGE statement and output the list of skipped records.
Through the documentation, internet posts and testing, I believe it is NOT possible. MERGE acts like a single atomic DML statement, and therefore cannot avoid locked records.
I can use the READPAST hint, which will skip the row-locked records. However, it could actually insert duplicate keys in certain cases (as it is ignoring records, i would guess), which would not be acceptable.
Im trying to delete duplicate records from the output of the query below, if they also meet certain conditions ie 'different address type' then I would merge the records. From the following query how do I go about achieving one and/or the other from either the output, or as an extension of the query itself?
SELECT
a1z103acno AccountNumber

Hi,
I have a merge (SQL 2005 Standard -> Express) topolgoy which is having problems
The main problem is that the join filters don't seem to work for one area and I am hoping someone can help me with some troubleshooting advice
There are 140+ tables in the topology but the ones causing particular pain are a parent child relationship where the child is actually a bridge/linking table to another table.
Therefore although it is a parent child in the replication filters it is the reverse. i.e. the child has the paramterised filter on it and the parent is one level down joined by it's id. There are other tables joined to this parent table but it stays at three levels deep. The @join_unique_key therefore is set to 0 as is the partition options for the parent /child relationship.
However, when we synchronise we have a problem. The rows get inserted in to the database in RI order but only the child records are replicated down to the subscriber.
The child table with the parameterised filter has 13 articles joined to it in total and one of the other branches of join filters go down as deep as four levels. Most though do not.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be happening? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, James
P.S. I should add this problem only occurs when the edits are made at the publisher. If new records are added at the subscriber everything is fine.
I am working on a project that will require me to get a flat data file (excel spreadsheet) with hundreds of thousands of records. Each record is an Owner, and specifically what they own. There will be a field for OwnerName that I want to figure out a way to pull the data into a database like;
Table(Owners) - make sure owner is listed only once
Table(Properties) - joined to owners showing all properties that person owns
Now the tricky part, the owner names might not be exactly the same. Some records might have;
Smith, John
John Smith
Smith, John T
etc.
To make matters worse, this will be a continuous process. I will receive updated excel spreadsheets from time to time and will need to import the new records, many times overwriting the old data. For the good news, there should be an OwnerID that will be unique within the excel data. So as I am merging similar records into the Owners table, I should have a list of OwnerID's that can forever be used to link to the owner.
I have a source table #source with columns 'source', 'patientcode' ,'patientdesc' and it has 4 records as below

I have a target table and it has 2 records as below.
source prefix tgt_patientcode tgt_patientdesc
canada cn abc patient1
canada cn efg patient2
Now, I want to merge the source data with target table -that means, if the records are already avaible in target, then ignore and if it does not available then INSERT.
This is the query i used but new records are not getting inserted.
MERGE #target T
USING #source S
ON S.SOURCE=T.Source
WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET THEN
INSERT ( Source, Prefix ,tgt_patientcode ,tgt_patientdesc)
VALUES ('Canada' , 'cn' , s.patientcode, s.patientcode);
I want the output as below
source prefix tgt_patientcode tgt_patientdesc
canada cn abc patient1
canada cn efg patient2
canada cn hij patient3
canada cn klm patient4
DDL as below :
create table #target (source varchar(100),prefix varchar(2),tgt_patientcode varchar(100),tgt_patientdesc varchar(100))
insert into #target values ('canada','cn','abc','patient1')
insert into #target values ('canada','cn','efg','patient2')

I have a table which is updated daily using a MERGE statement. As records are insert, updated and deleted, I am saving the OUTPUT from the MERGE statement into a history table with a timestamp and action$ column appended to the record.
Using this history table, I'd like to rebuild the data based on specific past date. I was able to create a stored procedure that inspects each record in the history table and apply it to the data in a temp table. The stored procedure solution uses multiple queries to rebuild the data at a point in time. I was curious if there was an easier and more efficient solution using a table function.
I have database on SQL Server 2000 set up with a merge publication.This publication is configured with a number of dynamic filters toreduce the amount of data sent to each client. Each client has ananonymous pull subscription. The merge process can be triggered by thewindows sync manager and my application.To improve performance I have created some helper tables to hold themapping between user login and primary keys of selected entities.For the replicated data to be correct the contents of the helper tablesneeds to be up to date.I need to fire off a stored procedure on the publisher beforereplication starts to verify that this data is up to date. I can notsee any documented way of doing this however I have been experimentingwith some unorthodox systems.Firstly has anyone any ideas?I have been considering adding a trigger to some of the tables used bythe Microsoft replication code - yes I know this is very nasty.My problems arise because executing this stored procedure will causesome data to be updated. In updating data we could create a newgeneration in the database. I must therefore run my stored procedurebefore any the Microsoft code makes any generation checks / updates.Anyone done anything similar, Anyone have any better ideas?Any comments would be gratefully received.

Hi,
I'm using merge replication to maintain a backup copy of my main (publisher)MSDE database. A push subscription periodically (1 per minute) updates the backup DB.
It's intended that if the main db goes down then the backup (subscription) db can be configured as a publisher. This must all be performed via scripting.
The initial configuration of the main publisher and subscription is controlled via scripting, which works fine.
The problems occur when I try to configure the subsciber to become a publisher. A script is executed on the subscriber but fails at the point when it's configuring the publisher detail. The error is something like "unable to configure a publication for a database setup as an anonymous subscription".
I'm guessing that there are subscritpion artifacts added to the database which need to be removed before it can be configured as a new publisher.
Please help,

I have a situation where deleting old records is blocking updating latest records on highly transactional table and getting timeout errors from application.
In details, I have one table called Tran_table1 in OLTP database. This Tran_table1 is highly transactional table, it will receive data for insert/update continuously
While archiving 2 years old records from Tran_table1 into Tran_table1_archive in batches(using DELETE OUTPUT INTO clause), if there is any UPDATEs on Tran_table1,these updates are getting blocked and result is timeout errors in application.
Is there any SQL Server hints to avoid blocking ..

HI,
I have been trying to solve the locking problem from past couple of days. Please help mee!!
Scenario:
--------------
I have a SSIS package in which 2 data flow tasks. 1st data flow task deletes records from a 5 tables and the 2nd data flow task should insert records into 1 of the five tables after the success of 1st data flow task. This scenario runs in Transacation.
The above scenrio in the 2nd data flow task hangs in runtime. It does not complete. with sp_who2 command i could see that there is an intent share lock(LK_M_IS) on the table and the status is SUSPENDED.

I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query similar to the following. The intent of this query is to retrieve the top 6 records meeting the specified criteria (LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status Start' OR LOGTYPENAME = 'Process Status End' ) based on most recent dates. Please keep in mind that I expect to return up to 6 records for each unique LogProcessName. This could be thousands of different LogProcessNames with up to 6 records for each.
1) The table I am executing against currently is very large in size and thus takes a long time to execute against. It would seem there must be a more efficient query to get the results I am looking for?
2) CTE doesn't work on SQL 2000. I need a query that does.

Hi,
I have to search the records after the records populated.
I mean to say, i have displayed records in report, if i enter some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular records, instead of highlighting the values, is it possible to display only those particular records.
For example, say i have 50 records in a page,i entered some strings in the textbox and clicked find, then it will highlight the particular 5 records one by one which match the criteria i have entered in the texbox, instead of that i have to display only those 5 records.
Please tell me how to implement in this report,

Ok, I'm really new at this, but I am looking for a way to automatically insert new records into tables. I have one primary table with a primary key id that is automatically generated on insert and 3 other tables that have foreign keys pointing to the primary key. Is there a way to automatically create new records in the foreign tables that will have the new id? Would this be a job for a trigger, stored procedure? I admit I haven't studied up on those yet--I am learning things as I need them. Thanks.

I am trying to write a query that will retrieve all students of a particular class and also any rows in HomeworkLogLine if they exist (but return null if there is no row). I thought this should be a relatively simple LEFT join but I've tried every possible combination of joins but it's not working.

I'm looking for a way of taking a query which returns a set of date time fields (probable maximum of 20 rows) and looping through each value to see if it exists in a separate table.

Select Person, ExistingEvent, DayField, TimeField

where person ='me'
Loop through Query 1 and if it finds ANY matching Dayfield AND Timefield in Query/Table 2, return the ProposedEvent (just as a message, the loop could stop there), if no match a message saying all is fine can proceed to process form blah blah.
I'm essentially wanting somebody to select a bunch of events in a form, query 1 then finds all the days and times those events happen and check that none of them exist in the MyTimetable table.
I'm at a bit of a loss here. My T-SQL skills are not up to the task at hand here :(
I've got company records in one table and SIC codes that correlate to the companies linked by the company ID. So, I can run the query, but the output I get is multiple records for each company, because some companies have multiple SIC codes associated with them.

Anyone have any idea how to bring back all the SIC codes for one company as one variable (or multiple variables, but in one record)?
Thank you very much for any help,

I cannot figure out how to write a sql statement to display the multiple records of multiple records. I know that doesn't make much sense so let me explain:
This problem involves two tables. They both reference (FK) data in a third table (tblDepartment).
Here are the fields and some test data in each of the two important tables:
=============
tblDepartment =============================
departmentIDuserID
-----------------------------
1user1
2user1
1user2
2user3
3user3
3user4
===========
tblRequest ========================================
requestIDdepartmentIDuserID
----------------------------------------
11user1
21user2
32user3
43user3
53user4
62user1
What I am trying to do is display all requests associated with the multiple departments of "user1". In the above example, I would want to see (after a select statement):
requestIDdepartmentIDuserID
----------------------------------------
11user1
21user2
32user3
52user1
We don't see the requests of user3 or user4 when the given request's departmentID is not a department associated with user1.
Hopefully someone out there understands this. I've never had to write a select statement like this before, so I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around it. Thanks for any help!
Hi,
I have one table which holds an ID, a name, and a parentID (which can either the same as the main ID or it's one of the other ID in that tbl)
At the moment I do a select on the records whos main ID is the same as the ParentID. This gives me an initial list of records who are the "Main" parent records (i.e they are not the child of any other record..
so far so good.
However, what I need to do is for each record work out if they themselves have any Child records. (only some have).
so at the mo I end up with a results set as this:
1 Boats
2 Jumpers
3 Trousers
4 Ships
What I want to end up is something like
1 Boats True
2 Jumpers False
3 Trousers True
4 Ships True
Where the true or false is if the record has any child records..
Any ideas?
