T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Check Constraint On Multiple Columns

Jul 25, 2014

I have a case where if the Id field is a specific value, I don't want to allow null in another field, but if the Id value <> a specific value, null is ok.

In the example below, inserting the first record should succeed, the second should succeed, and the 3rd should fail. Right now the 2nd two fail. I gotta be missing something easy, but I can't figure it out.

USE tempdb
GO
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb.dbo.CheckConstraintTest') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE tempdb.dbo.CheckConstraintTest;
CREATE TABLE CheckConstraintTest

Unique Constraint W Nulls, Compare Columns

Jun 20, 2008

Hi Guys.

I have a problem. I have two feilds in a table. Both of them are (int). I want to be able make sure the same number is not put in both columns for each row. Both colums have to be a different number, and also if one is null, the other cannot be. How do I go about enforcing this policy?

For Example:

This is what I want

ID Column1 Column2
--- -------- ---------
1 5 8
2 5 7
3 null 10
4 6 2


This is what I DO NOT want:

ID Column1 Column2
--- -------- ---------
1 5 5
2 5 5
3 7 7
4 null null


I created a unique constraint between the 2 columns, but it still allows dups within the row. Please help me.

INFORMATION_SCHEMA Query Question: Constraint Columns

Jul 20, 2005

Hi Folks:I'm a little new to SQLServer, so please pardon my ignorance!I've found the INFORMATION_SCHEMA views for TABLES, COLUMNS, andTABLE_CONSTRAINTS. I'm looking for the views that will give me the list ofcolumns by constraint.For instance, if Table1 has a unique key called Table1_UK01, I can find thatunder INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS. But I also need to know thecolumns in that UK constraint. I've triedINFORMATION_SCHEMA.CONSTRAINT_COLUMN_USAGE andINFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE, but the UK I have defined for this usertable doesn't seem to show up in either of those views.Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any sample queries would betremendously appreciated. I'm going to be using this meta-data toautomatically generate quite a bundle of stored procs that do updates basedon finding rows via unique keys...TIA,Dave

Default Constraint On Columns Pros And Cons?

Oct 26, 2007



Are there any vices to using default constraints on all columns in your table.
For example an Int that defaults to 0
or a char or varchar that defaults to ''

I know that 0 and Null are not the same thing. But if your programs don't have the concept of NULL then you have to convert the NULL to zero.

So, DEFAULT CONSTRAINTS on every column. Is it good or Bad?

Thanks

Transact SQL :: Select And Parse Json Data From 2 Columns Into Multiple Columns In A Table?

Apr 29, 2015

I have a business need to create a report by query data from a MS SQL 2008 database and display the result to the users on a web page. The report initially has 6 columns of data and 2 out of 6 have JSON data so the users request to have those 2 JSON columns parse into 15 additional columns (first JSON column has 8 key/value pairs and the second JSON column has 7 key/value pairs). Here what I have done so far:

I found a table value function (fnSplitJson2) from this link [URL]. Using this function I can parse a column of JSON data into a table. So when I use the function above against the first column (with JSON data) in my query (with CROSS APPLY) I got the right data back the but I got 8 additional rows of each of the row in my table. The reason for this side effect is because the function returned a table of 8 row (8 key/value pairs) for each json string data that it parsed.

1. First question: How do I modify my current query (see below) so that for each row in my table i got back one row with 19 columns.

SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B

If updated my query (see below) and call the function twice within the CROSS APPLY clause I got this error: "The multi-part identifier "A.ITEM6" could be be bound.

2. My second question: How to i get around this error?

SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*, C.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B,  fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM6,NULL) C

I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 version. Windows 7 desktop.

Transact SQL :: Any Reason For Difference In Order Of Columns Between Index Of Constraint And Its Statistics Definition?

Sep 5, 2015

I am really puzzled by an apparent difference between table index key column order and its statistics order. I was under understanding that index statistics mirror index definition. However, in my db 2470 index ordinal definitions match statistics definition but 66 do not. I also can reproduce such discrepancy in 2008 R2, 2012 and 2014.

As per definition,

stats_column_id
int

1-based ordinal within set of stats columns

This script duplicates this for me.

BEGIN TRAN
GO
use tempdb
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ItemProperties](
[itmID] [int] NOT NULL,
[cpID] [smallint] NOT NULL,
[ipuID] [tinyint] NOT NULL,

[Code] ....

The result I get is this:

object_id       stats_name                                     
stats_column_list
1525580473 PK_ItemProperties_itmID_ipuID_cpID itmID,  cpID,  ipuID,

and

object_id      index_name                                     
index_column_list
1525580473 PK_ItemProperties_itmID_ipuID_cpID itmID,  ipuID,  cpID,

Also a query I used to discover this in my db is:

WITH stat AS
(
SELECT
s.object_id
,s.name as stats_name
,(
SELECT
c.name + ', ' as [data()]
FROM sys.stats_columns as sc

SQL Server 2012 :: Concatenate Multiple Rows In Multiple Columns

Aug 5, 2014

I concatenate multiple rows from one table in multiple columns like this:

--Create Table

[PersonType] [nchar](2) NOT NULL,
[FirstName] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Person_BusinessEntityID_1] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

[Code] ....

This works very well, but I want to concatenate more rows with different [PersonType]-Values in different columns and I don't like the overhead, of using the same table in every subquery ([Person_1]). Is there a more elegant way to do this, without using a temp table or something else?

Obtaining Data To Be Displayed In Multiple Columns From Multiple Rows

Apr 23, 2008



Hello All,

I am rather new to reporting on SQL Server 2005 so please be patient with me.

I need to create a report that will generate system information for a server, the issue im having is that the table I am having to gather the information from seems to only allow me to pull off data from only one row.

For example,. Each row contains a different system part (I.e. RAM) this would be represented by an identifier (1), but I to list each system part as a column in a report

The table (System Info) looks like:-

ID | System part |
1 | RAM
2 | Disk Drive
10| CPU
11| CD ROM |

Which


So basically I need it to look like this.

Name | IP | RAM | Disk Drive|
----------------------------------------------
A | 127.0.0.1 | 512MB | Floppy

So Far my SQL code looks like this for 1 item
SELECT SYSTEM PART
FROM System Info
WHERE System.ID = 1

How would I go about displaying the other system parts as columns with info

Any help is much appreciated!

Multiple Columns With Different Values OR Single Column With Multiple Criteria?

Aug 22, 2007

Hi,

I have multiple columns in a Single Table and i want to search values in different columns. My table structure is

col1 (identity PK)
col2 (varchar(max))
col3 (varchar(max))

I have created a single FULLTEXT on col2 & col3.
suppose i want to search col2='engine' and col3='toyota' i write query as

SELECT

TBL.col2,TBL.col3
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col2,'engine') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col3,'toyota') TBL2
ON

TBL.col1=TBL2.[key]

Every thing works well if database is small. But now i have 20 million records in my database. Taking an exmaple there are 5million record with col2='engine' and only 1 record with col3='toyota', it take substantial time to find 1 record.

I was thinking this i can address this issue if i merge both columns in a Single column, but i cannot figure out what format i save it in single column that i can use query to extract correct information.
for e.g.;
i was thinking to concatinate both fields like
col4= ABengineBA + ABBToyotaBBA
and in search i use
SELECT

TBL.col4
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABBToyotaBBA"') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
Result = 1 row

But it don't work in following scenario
col4= ABengineBA + ABBCorola ToyotaBBA

SELECT

TBL.col4
FROM

TBL
INNER JOIN

CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABB*ToyotaBBA"') TBL1
ON

TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]

Result=0 Row
Any idea how i can write second query to get result?

Calculated Columns Based On Multiple Columns?

Aug 12, 2014

MS SQL 2008 R2

I have the following effectively random numbers in a table:

n1,n2,n3,n4,SCORE
1,2,5,9,i
5,20,22,25,i
6,10,12,20,i

I'd like to generate the calculated column SCORE based on various scenarios in the other columns. eg.

if n1<10 and n2<10 then i=i + 1
if n4-n3=1 then i=i + 1
if more than 2 consecutive numbers then i=i + 1

So, I need to build the score. I've tried the procedure below and it works as a pass or fail but is too limiting. I'd like something that increments the variable @test1.

declare @test1 int
set @test1=0
select top 10 n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6,
case when (
n1=2 and
n2>5
)
then @test1+1
else @test1
end as t2

Search In Fulltextindexes For Multiple Searchterms In Multiple Columns

Mar 23, 2007

I want to search in fulltextindexes for multiple searchterms in multiple columns. The difficulty is:
I don't want only the records with columns that contains both searchterms.
I also want the records of which one column contains one of the searchterm ans another column contains one of the searchterms.

For example I search for NETWORK and PERFORMANCE in two columns.
Jobdescr_________________________|Jobtext
Bad NETWORK PERFORMANCE________|Slow NETWORK browsing in Windows XP
Bad application PERFORMANCE_______|Because of slow NETWORK browsing, the application runs slow.

I only get the first record because JobDescr contains both searchterms
I don't get the second record because none of the columns contains both searchterms

I managed to find a workaround:

SELECT T3.jobid, T3.jobdescr
FROM (SELECT jobid FROM dba.job WHERE contains(jobdescr, 'network*') or CONTAINS(jobtext, 'network*') ) T1
INNER JOIN (SELECT jobid FROM dba.job WHERE contains(jobdescr, 'performance*') or CONTAINS(jobtext, 'performance*')) T2 ON T2.Jobid = T1.Jobid
INNER JOIN (SELECT jobid, jobdescr FROM dba.job) T3 ON T3.Jobid = T1.Jobid OR T3.Jobid = T2.JobId
It works but i guess this will result in a heavy database load when the number of searchterms and columns will increase.

Does anyone know a better solution?

Thanks in advance Bart Rouw

Processing Multiple Rows And Multiple Columns In SSIS

Anyway, I am trying to figure out how to process from an ADO.NET connection multiple rows with multiple columns. I have to read and manipulate each row. I was originally looking at using a foreach loop but have not been able to get it to work. One reply to my previous thought I should be using a data task to accomplish this. Could someone tell me the best way to handle this situation? As a note, I am new to programming in SSIS and basically trying to learn it as I go so please bear with me! Thanks in advance!

Reducing Storage Space By Moving Rarely Required Columns To Separate Table While Sharing Primary Key Constraint

Aug 17, 2006

Dear all,

In my current database design, there is one table (PState) which has a Primary Key (int) and a few other fields.

During development, a pattern started to arise; for certain rows in PState, I wanted to specify an additional set of columns (over 10 of them with quite large lengths) for each row in PState. However, as these additional columns would only be required in approximately 20% of the rows of PState, there would be plenty of NULL values in PState if I would make this table wider than necessary. So, I decided to create a separate table with those optional columns (PStateWFI). In order to attach these additional columns in PStateWFI to PState in the cases they were needed, I would obviously have to create a Foreign Key constraint on the Primary Key of PStateWFI so that these optional rows would know which row in PState they would belong to.

However, the problem with this approach is that one could define multiple rows in PStateWFI referring to the same row in PState, which would not make sense. Thus, a UNIQUE index constraint added to the constrained ID column in PStateWFI would make sense to ensure that there could only be one set of optional columns added to each row in PState. But now, when adding the UNIQUE index, the FK constraint started to appear as a bidirectional key link in the Diagram; hence, new entries in PState would have to meet a FK constraint based on PStateWFI, which was not intended.

Hence, I had to create a quite awkward design to enforce the constraints:

1. The PState table has a Primary Key (PState.ParticleID, int, Identity Specification: Yes)
2. The PStateWFI table has a Primary Key (PstateWFIID, int, Identity Specification: Yes)
3. PStateWFI has field "PStateID" which has a FK constraint to PState.ParticleID (which is a one-way constraint operating in the correct way and does not constrain insertions in PState)
4. PStateWFI has an additional column ParticleIDIndex which has a UNIQUE Index attached to it.
5. There is a check constraint on PStateWFI enforcing PStateWFI.ParticleIDIndex = PStateWFI.ParticleID.

Although this structure does the job, it makes it necessary to add a redundant column in PStateWFI by duplicating the PStateWFI.ParticleID into PStateWFI.ParticleIDIndex, since I can't create a UNIQUE index on PStateWFI.ParticleID without constraining the PState table as well. So, insertions into this table would have to insert the same value into two columns. Not a big deal, but appears slightly ugly.

Basically I'd hope someone could explain why a bidirectional FK constraint has to be enforced on the primary key table in a relationship when the constrained column in the primary key table has a UNIQUE index attached on it. I have a few other cases where the above approach would benefit from a more clear structure.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

SQL 2012 :: Split Data From Two Columns In One Table Into Multiple Columns Of Result Table

Jul 22, 2015

So I have been trying to get mySQL query to work for a large database that I have. I have (lets say) two tables Table_One and Table_Two. Table_One has three columns: Type, Animal and TestID and Table_Two has 2 columns Test_Name and Test_ID. Example with values is below:

**TABLE_ONE**
Type Animal TestID
-----------------------------------------
Mammal Goat 1
Fish Cod 1
Bird Chicken 1
Reptile Snake 1
Bird Crow 2
Mammal Cow 2
Bird Ostrich 3

**Table_Two**
Test_name TestID
-------------------------
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_2 2
Test_2 2
Test_3 3

In Table_One all types come under one column and the values of all Types (Mammal, Fish, Bird, Reptile) come under another column (Animals). Table_One and Two can be linked by Test_ID

I am trying to create a table such as shown below:

Test_Name Bird Reptile Mammal Fish
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Test_1 Chicken Snake Goat Cod
Test_2 Crow Cow
Test_3 Ostrich

This should be my final table. The approach I am currently using is to make multiple instances of Table_One and using joins to form this final table. So the column Bird, Reptile, Mammal and Fish all come from a different copy of Table_one.

For e.g

Select
Test_Name AS 'Test_Name',
Table_Bird.Animal AS 'Birds',
Table_Mammal.Animal AS 'Mammal',
Table_Reptile.Animal AS 'Reptile,
Table_Fish.Animal AS 'Fish'
From Table_One

[Code] .....

The problem with this query is it only works when all entries for Birds, Mammals, Reptiles and Fish have some value. If one field is empty as for Test_Two or Test_Three, it doesn't return that record. I used Or instead of And in the WHERE clause but that didn't work as well.

SQL 2012 :: Calculated Columns Conditional On Calculated Columns Multiple Tables

Apr 20, 2014

I have 4 tables involved here. The priority table is TABLE1:

NAMEID TRANDATE TRANAMT RMPROPID TOTBAL
000001235 04/14/2014 335 A0A00 605
000001234 04/14/2014 243 A0A01 243
000001236 04/14/2014 425 A0A02 500

TRANAMT being the amount paid & TOTBAL being the balance due per the NAMEID & RMPROPID specified.The other table includes a breakdown of the total balance, in a manner of speaking, by charge code (thru a SUM(OPENAMT) query of DISTINCT CHGCODE

TABLE2
NAMEID TRANDATE TRANAMT RMPROPID CHGCODE OPENAMT
000001234 04/01/2014 400 A0A01 ARC 0
000001234 04/05/2014 -142 A0A01 ARC 228
000001234 04/10/2014 15 A0A01 ALT 15

[code]...

Also with a remaining balance (per CHGCODE) column. Any alternative solution that would effectively split the TABLE1.TRANAMT up into the respective TABLE2.CHGCODE balances? Either way, I can't figure out how to word the queries.

Named Constraint Is Not Supported For This Type Of Constraint (not Null)

May 13, 2008

Hi, all.

I am trying to create table with following SQL script:





Code Snippet

create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) constraint NN_Prj_Name not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);

When I execute this script I get following error message:

Error source: SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider
Error message: Named Constraint is not supported for this type of constraint. [ Constraint Name = NN_Prj_Name ]

I looked in the SQL Server Books Online and saw following:

CREATE TABLE (SQL Server Compact)
...
< column_constraint > ::= [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ] { [ NULL | NOT NULL ] | [ PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE ] | REFERENCES ref_table [ ( ref_column ) ] [ ON DELETE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ] [ ON UPDATE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ]

As I understand according to documentation named constraints should be supported, however error message says opposite. I can rephrase SQL script by removing named constraint.





Code Snippet

create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
This script executes correctly, however I want named constraints and this does not satisfy me.

Here's my situation: I want to select duplicates from a table based off of 3 fields:Normally one would use HAVING COUNT(*) > 1however, I need to INSERT INTO my table based on duplicates of the 3 fields but also insert the key from the first table, ie:insert into #TempTable (key, field1, field2, field3)select key, field1, field2, field3 from Table1 order by field1, field2, field3 Having COUNT(field1)>1 and COUNT(field2)>1 and COUNT(field3)>1 My question is this: Will this having statement compare all three fields of this row to all three fields of the other rows, or does it do each column independantly?for example:row 1: a   b   g                  row 2: a   c   k                  row 3: j    c   k These rows aren't the same, even though there are 2 a's, I want it to look at the entire row, and not return all three of these.

Multiple Columns From WHERE?

Aug 10, 2004

Hey all,
I was curious if this was possible...
I basically have 2 queries I'd like to combine into one. The only difference in the queries is one clause in the WHERE statement

so here is an idea of what I'm talking about

SELECT COUNT(*) as HighStock FROM products WHERE qty > 100

now lets say I needed to do one for low I would have to run that query 2 times with different alias's and change the qty...

is there a way to get all that in one result set? Something like

SELECT COUNT(*) as HighStock, COUNT(*) as LowStock FROM products WHERE qty > 100 AND LowStock = qty < 20

so then my result would be
HighStock LowStock
50 10

anyone have any clues on that? thanks! :)

Mar 13, 2015

I have a table that has 565789 distinct rows and I am tring to get the maximum value across several columns. This is an example of my data:

mid value1 value2 value3 value4 value5 value6
111 .034 .005 .036 .010 .012 .002
222 .054 .032 .001 .002 .005 .006
333 .002 .004 .006 .001 .003 .087

The query I am trying is: and it states invalud from but not sure why

SELECT MID
(SELECT MAX(VAL) FROM
(
SELECT A.VALUE1 FROM A UNION ALL
SELECT B.VALUE2 FROM B UNION ALL

[Code] ....
