Multiple CTE In One SELECT Statement Query

May 8, 2014

I am trying to apply the logic from the following resource: URL....but cannot get it to work with my logic for some reason.For example, the following query:

;WITH CTE1 AS (SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 120) AS Col1),
CTE2 AS (SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 111) AS Col2)
SELECT CTE1.Col1,CTE2.Col2
FROM CTE1
CROSS JOIN CTE2
GO

Produces the following output:

Col1 | Col2
2014-05-08 10:55:54 | 2014/05/08

But, as soon as I try to do something else like:

;WITH CTE1 AS (SELECT COUNT(login) FROM userinfo AS Col1),
CTE2 AS (SELECT COUNT(login) FROM userinfo AS Col2)
SELECT CTE1.Col1,CTE2.Col2
FROM CTE1
CROSS JOIN CTE2
GO

I receive the following errors:

Msg 8155, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
No column name was specified for column 1 of 'CTE1'.
Msg 8155, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
No column name was specified for column 1 of 'CTE2'.

Are there limitations when trying to use multiple CTE in a single query?

Faster Query - Select By One Or Multiple Fields

Feb 1, 2008

Let's say I have a table of users.
Let's imagine there's two fields:
username (PK),
password

Now I need to authenticate a user against this table. What is the recommended approach? Is it better / faster to
(1) SELECT * FROM [User]
WHERE username = 'whatever' AND password='whatever'
or
(2) SELECT * FROM [User]
WHERE username = 'whatever'
and then in my code check that the record returned matched the password?

Select Query With Multiple Row Coalesce Subquery

Apr 30, 2008

Hey guys, I have a brain buster for you today:

I have a query where I need to select a bunch of rows from one table, hypothetically we'll call them ssn, first name, last name, and I need to select a subquery which coalesces a bunch of rows together (in no case will there be only one row returned from that subquery).

Anyone know how I could go about this? I'll give you an example of what I've tried, but it does not work currently.

delcare @path varchar(255)
select e.ssn,

e.firstname,
e.lastname,
( @path = select coalesce(@path + ', ', '')
from space s1 inner join space s2

on s1.lft BETWEEN s2.lft AND s2.rgt and s1.rgt BETWEEN s2.lft AND s2.rgt
where s1.spaceID = 133225
select @path)
from employees e
where e.id = 5

Using that spaceID is guaranteed to give me four rows, and I need them coalesced together, but I can't just use a function (too slow on the scale it would be used), any thoughts?

Spreading SELECT Query Results Over Multiple Pages

Dec 20, 2006

Hello.Lets say that there is a table with N rows. now, i want to display the table's data on a web page. one way is to select the whole table and add each row's data to the webpage (something like SELECT * FROM TABLE1).going this way will create a huge page. i want to speared the results over multiple pages - excatly as this forum spread each forum messages over multiple pages.
for this purpose, i need to query Y rows each time, for example, if my table has 20 rows, and say that i want that each page will display 5 rows, then i need to query 5 rows each time. the first 5 rows for the first page, the next 5 rows for the second page and so on...
is there any way to achieve it using an SQL query?
the simplest way is to select the whole table and manaually filter the results. but this way will become slow as the table grows with data... and i dont want to select rows which i wont display anyway.
any suggestions?
Thanks.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Select Query With Multiple Where Conditions And OR Operator

Feb 6, 2015

I have the got below T SQL query to fetch the matching record

DECLARE @MappingTable TABLE
(
Productname nvarchar(10),
identification_key1 int,
identification_key2 int,
identification_key3 int

[Code] .....

-- result - 'Orange'

This is an exact matching record and straight forward

Is it possible to identify the record using T SQL query based on the following scenarios

1) return the record - If all the three where conditions match
2) if record not found check and return the record where 2 columns values in the where condition match

-- Expected Result for below query: 'Orange', because 2 of the columns in where condition have matching values

SELECT Productname
FROM @MappingTable where identification_key1=1 or identification_key2 =2 or identification_key3 =1

-- result - 'Orange'

HELP With SQL Query: Select Multiple Values From One Column Based On &&<= Condition.

Aug 7, 2007

Hello all. I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to construct a SQL statement that will be run on a Dataset that I have. The trick is that there are many conditions that can apply. I'll describe my situation:

I have about 1700 records in a datatable titled "AISC_Shapes_Table" with 49 columns. What I would like to do is allow the user of my VB application to 'create' a custom query (i.e. advanced search). For now, I'll just discuss two columns; The Section Label titled "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" and the Weight column "W". The data appears in the following manner:

(AISC_Shapes_Table)

AISC_MANUAL_LABEL W
W44x300 300
W42x200 200
(and so on)
WT22x150 150
WT21x100 100

(and so on)
MT12.5x12.4 12.4
MT12x10 10
(etc.)

I have a listbox which users can select MULTIPLE "Manual Labels" or shapes. They then select a property (W for weight, in this case) and a limitation (greater than a value, less than a value, or between two values). From all this, I create a custom Query string or filter to apply to my BindingSource.Filter method. However I have to use the % wildcard to deal with exceptions. If the user only wants W shapes, I use "...LIKE 'W%'" and "...NOT LIKE 'WT%" to be sure to select ONLY W shapes and no WT's. The problems arises, however, when the user wants multiple shapes in general. If I want to select all the "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" values with W <= 40, I can't do it. An example of a statement I tried to use to select WT% Labels and MT% labels with weight (W)<=100 is:




Code SnippetSELECT AISC_MANUAL_LABEL, W
FROM AISC_Shape_Table
WHERE (W <= 100) AND ((AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'MT%') AND (AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'WT%'))



It returns a NULL value to me, which i know is NOT because no such values exist. So, I further investigated and tried to use a subquery seeing if IN, ANY, or ALL would work, but to no avail. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? I know that if I can get an example of ONE of them to work, then I'll easily be able to apply it to all of my cases. Otherwise, am I just going about this the hard way or is it even possible? Please, ANY suggestions will help. Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Steve G.

Query To Select Multiple Tables In Dataset Through ODBC Connection

Apr 10, 2007

Hi there,



I have a MS Access database (mdb) containing the following tables:



Crime

Criminal

CrimeCommitted

Hideout

CriminalType



The Criminal table contains information about each criminal and the CrimeCommitted table contains information about the specific crimes. I've written the following query to return only the latest crime committed by each criminal:




Code Snippet



SELECT Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType, Max(CrimeComitted.Date) AS Last_Crime_Comitted
FROM Criminal INNER JOIN CrimeComitted ON Criminal.CriminalID=CrimeComitted.CriminalID
GROUP BY Criminal.CriminalID, Criminal.Firstname, Criminal.Lastname, Criminal.Nickname, Criminal.Gender, Criminal.DOB, Criminal.Eyes, Criminal.Complexion, Criminal.Weight, Criminal.Height, Criminal.Build, Criminal.Scars, Criminal.Occupation, Criminal.CrimeOrgID, Criminal.IQ, Criminal.Hideout, Criminal.CriminalType;







This query works fine for obtaining the Criminal table data, but once i've include CrimeCommitted.Country in the SELECT statement, the data returned contained all the crimes committed by each criminal (i just need the latest crime).



The query doesn't work when another table, other than Criminal, is selected. How can i obtain the columns in the CrimeCommitted table in this query?

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Estimated Query Plan For A Stored Procedure With Multiple Query Statements

Oct 30, 2015

When viewing an estimated query plan for a stored procedure with multiple query statements, two things stand out to me and I wanted to get confirmation if I'm correct.

1. Under <ParameterList><ColumnReference... does the xml attribute "ParameterCompiledValue" represent the value used when the query plan was generated?

<ParameterList>
<ColumnReference Column="@Measure" ParameterCompiledValue="'all'" />
</ParameterList>
</QueryPlan>
</StmtSimple>

2. Does each query statement that makes up the execution plan for the stored procedure have it's own execution plan? And meaning the stored procedure is made up of multiple query plans that could have been generated at a different time to another part of that stored procedure?

SQL Server 2012 :: Adding Count To Query Without Duplicating Original Select Query

Aug 5, 2014

I have the following code.

SELECT _bvSerialMasterFull.SerialNumber, _bvSerialMasterFull.SNStockLink, _bvSerialMasterFull.SNDateLMove, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentLoc,
_bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentAccLink, _bvSerialMasterFull.StockCode, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentAccount, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentLocationDesc,
_bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTxDate, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTxReference, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTrCodeID, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTransType,
_bvSerialNumbersFull.SNWarehouseID, _bvSerialNumbersFull.TransAccount, _bvSerialNumbersFull.TransTypeDesc,

[code]...

However, as you can see, the original select query is run twice and joined together.What I was hoping for is this to be done in the original query without the need to duplicate the original query.

SQL Server 2008 :: Multiple Languages In Same Column - How To Sort / Select

Jul 29, 2011

We have a database where the nvarchar columns currently holding English only data. It keeps the training information. Currently the default collation is Latin Case insensitive accent insensitive.

Now we are planning to allow multiple language support. When we go for it, we will upload the data from different languages. Based on user preferences, he/she should be able to query the data (One language at a time).

I am worried on how the existing queries will work if I load all language data in the same database.

For example, some characters in English are used in Norwegian too. But they have different sort order. ALso LIKE conditions too may fail.

So far I thought of few solutions: Add the Collation information along with select , order by clauses. It means we need to add more procedures (one set per collation) The other option is to create new database for each language. Each will have its own collation. The dowside is we need more databases which may lead to more servers and more maintenance work.

SQL Server 2014 :: Add Multiple Records To Table (insert / Select)?

Jul 31, 2014

I am trying to add multiple records to my table (insert/select).

INSERT INTO Users
( User_id ,
Name
)
SELECT ( SELECT MAX(User_id) + 1
FROM Users
) ,
Name

But I get the error:

Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Users'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Users'.

But I am using the max User_id + 1, so it can't be duplicate

This would insert about 20 records.

Why the error?

SQL Server 2008 :: Select Multiple Values From Same Column And Make Them To Show In A Row

Jun 10, 2015

I created a query that got the following result. But I expect to get the structure like, care_nbr, cust_nbr,legal_name, address_type=physical address, addr_line_1, addr_line_2, address_type-primary address, ddr_line_1, addr_line_2. That means I only need primary and physical address, and expect them to show in a row to each care_nbr. How to perform that?

CARE_Nbr||Cust_Nbr||Legal_Name||||||| Address_Tpye |||Addr_Line_1 ||||||||||||||||Addr_Line_2
99000001||004554||Mac Marketing, LLC||Billing Address||210 Parktowne Blvd Ste. 1||NULL

99000001||004554||Mac Marketing, LLC||Physical Address||210 Parktowne Blvd Suite 1||NULL

How should I modify this query to get my expected result?

select a.CARE_Number,
a.Customer_Nbr_Txt,
a.Customer_Type_Txt,
a.Legal_Name_Txt,
c.Address_Type_Txt,c.Address_Line_1_Txt,c.Address_Line_2_Txt,

Multiple Tables Select Performance - SQL 2005 - Should It Take 90 Seconds For A Select?

Dec 4, 2007

I have a problem where my users complain that a select statement takes too long, at 90 seconds, to read 120 records out of a database.
The select statement reads from 9 tables three of which contain 1000000 records, the others contain between 100 and 250000 records.
I have checked that each column in the joins are indexed - they are (but some of them are clustered indexes, not unclustered).
I have run the SQL Profiler trace from the run of the query through the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor". That just suggested two statistics items which I added (no benefit) and two indexes for tables that are not involved at all in the query (I didn't add these).
I also ran the query through the Query window in SSMS with "Include Actual Execution Plan" enabled. This showed that all the execution time was being taken up by searches of the clustered indexes.
I have tried running the select with just three tables involved, and it completes fast. I added a fourth and it took 7 seconds. However there was no WHERE clause for the fourth table, so I got a cartesian product which might have explained the problem.
So my question is: Is it normal for such a type of read query to take 90 seconds to complete?
Is there anything I could do to speed it up.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

One Receipt Number, Query Multiple Tables Gives Multiple Data.

Sep 8, 2006

I have just taken over the job of sorting out a rather poorly designed database. It looks like it was 'upsized' from an access database to the SQL server. The SQL server is the 2000 version.

Now I am trying to generate a report of what the students in the database are owing by referencing the Receipt table and then all the available payment methods and allocations. I was wondering if there was anyway to work out data being displayed twice (Let me demonstrate)

Note1: All the tables are linked by a key of ReceiptNo. From what I can see there is a table for every payment type and allocation but no link between the two other then the receipt number.

Using the query:
SELECT T_Receipt.ReceiptNo, T_cheque.Amount AS Chq_Amount, T_credit.Amount AS Cre_Amount, StandingOrder.Amount AS Stn_Amount,
T_BankTransfer.amount AS Bnk_Amount, T_cash.TotalAmount AS Cas_Amount, T_RentPayment.AmountPayed AS Ren_Paid,
T_AdminPayment.AmountPaid AS Adm_Paid, T_InternetBilling.Total AS Int_Paid, T_Utilities.AmountPaid AS Util_Amount,
T_InvoicePayment.amountPaid AS Inv_Paid, T_OtherPayments.paymentAmount AS Oth_Paid, T_parkingBill.paymentAmount AS Prk_Paid,
T_TelephoneBills.TelephoneCredit AS Tel_Paid, T_DepositPayment.[Deposit payment] AS Dep_Amount, T_Receipt.cancelled AS Canceled,
T_Receipt.RemittanceReceiptNo AS Rec_Ref, T_Receipt.Student
FROM T_Receipt INNER JOIN
T_DepositPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_DepositPayment.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_RentPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_RentPayment.RentPaymentNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
StandingOrder ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = StandingOrder.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_TelephoneBills ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_TelephoneBills.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_parkingBill ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_parkingBill.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_OtherPayments ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_OtherPayments.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_InvoicePayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_InvoicePayment.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_cash ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_cash.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_AdminPayment ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_AdminPayment.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_BankTransfer ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_BankTransfer.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_Utilities ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_Utilities.receiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_credit ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_credit.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_cheque ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_cheque.ReceiptNo LEFT OUTER JOIN
T_InternetBilling ON T_Receipt.ReceiptNo = T_InternetBilling.ReceiptNo
GROUP BY T_Receipt.Student, T_Receipt.ReceiptNo, T_cheque.Amount, T_credit.Amount, StandingOrder.Amount, T_BankTransfer.amount, T_cash.TotalAmount,
T_AdminPayment.AmountPaid, T_InternetBilling.Total, T_Utilities.AmountPaid, T_InvoicePayment.amountPaid, T_OtherPayments.paymentAmount,
T_parkingBill.paymentAmount, T_TelephoneBills.TelephoneCredit, T_Receipt.cancelled, T_Receipt.RemittanceReceiptNo,
T_DepositPayment.[Deposit payment], T_RentPayment.AmountPayed, T_Receipt.Student
HAVING (T_Receipt.Student LIKE N'06%')

Which gives a result of:




RecNo.
30429
Cheque
250
Deposit
250


30429
679.98
250


This is fine but when I do analysis on this it appears as though the student has paid two deposit payments. I was wondering with out querying each table independently from an application if there was a criteria to specify that I only get one deposit result.
So as such say, give me all the payments but I only want one result from the other tables. I though about discrete but that wouldn't work here.

Cross-server SELECT Query

May 2, 2006

Hi,

Recently the powers-that-be migrated the largest databases from one server to another, more powerful server while keeping some support data on the original server. My problem: I need to run queries on tables spanning both database servers. Unfortunately, I can't find any documentation on how to do this. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
