Need SQL For Finding Gaps Comparing Two Sets Of Pe
Feb 27, 2008
Hi all,
I have two tables - Planning and Appointments:
Planning - contains a list of planned items. Used to define boundaries for a work day and defines based on type what can be done for each item.
Id,
TypeId - the type of the planned items
BeginTime DateTime - begin date and time of the planned item
EndTime DateTime - end date and time for the planned item
In the Planning table we can have as many records per day as we need:
1, First Meeting, 1 Jan 2008 09:00, 1 Jan 2008 11:00
2, First Meeting, 1 Jan 2008 11:00, 1 Jan 2008 12:00
3, First Meeting, 1 Jan 2008 13:00, 1 Jan 2008 15:00
4, First Meeting, 1 Jan 2008 15:00, 1 Jan 2008 18:00
Appointments - contanis a list with appointments
Id,
BeginTime DateTime
EndTime DateTime
1, 1 Jan 2008 09:00, 1 Jan 2008 09:30
2, 1 Jan 2008 10:00, 1 Jan 2008 11:00
3, 1 Jan 2008 11:00, 1 Jan 2008 11:30
4, 1 Jan 2008 14:00, 1 Jan 2008 15:30
What is needed?
What I need is to a find a way to compare the planned items with the appointments and to return all the periods for which a planned time exists:
Free planned time:
1, 1 Jan 2008 09:30, 1 Jan 2008 10:00
2, 1 Jan 2008 11:30, 1 Jan 2008 12:00
3, 1 Jan 2008 13:00, 1 Jan 2008 14:00
4, 1 Jan 2008 15:30, 1 Jan 2008 18:00
So, having two multitudes of periods,where the one specifies the planning templates and the other real used time, I need to find all the periods which can be used for another appointments.
I've tried several aproaches, but I always faced performance problems.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to find gaps in times in a table of sessions where the session endings aren't sequential. That is, session 1 can start at 10:00 and finish at 10:30, while session 2 started at 10:05 and finished at 10:45, and session 3 started at 10:06 and finished at 10:20. Only the starting times are in order; the ending times can be anywhere after that.Here's a bunch of sample data:
CREATE TABLE #SessionTest(SessionId int,Logindatetime datetime, Logoutdatetime datetime)
INSERT INTO #SessionTest
SELECT '1073675','Mar 3 2014 1:53PM','Mar 3 2014 1:53PM' UNION ALL
SELECT '1073676','Mar 3 2014 2:26PM','Mar 3 2014 3:51PM' UNION ALL
SELECT '1073677','Mar 3 2014 2:29PM','Mar 3 2014 3:54PM' UNION ALL
SELECT '1073678','Mar 3 2014 2:29PM','Mar 3 2014 5:47PM' UNION ALL
SELECT '1073679','Mar 3 2014 2:30PM','Mar 3 2014 3:37PM' UNION ALL
[code]....

I have a group of date ranges and wanted to identify all of the date gaps within the ranges, outputting the dates as another date range dataset.
Example dataset SQL below:
CREATE TABLE #test (daterow int identity, obj_id int, datestart DATETIME, dateend DATETIME)
INSERT INTO #test
SELECT 1, '20130428', '20130523'
UNION
SELECT 1, '20130526', '20130823'
[Code] ....
I would expect a dataset to be returned consisting of:
1, 24/05/2013, 25/05/2013
1, 24/08/2013, 25/08/2013
2, 16/05/2013, 24/05/2013
I have found a lot of examples of problems where I have just a single date column, and then I find the gaps in between that, but I'm having difficulty finding examples where it works with start and end date columns...

currently I am facing a complex escenario related with gaps and sequences, but I was trying with diferent cases but I did not get the correct results, I am sure about the use of windows functions. I have a table with the information grouped by PublicationId, Provider, MetricId and Amount by Date, one row by each month, but in some cases these data don't have a sequencial values, for example I have the data for the next sequence:
I need to get the sequence by each month, in this case I need to project the month from February to May (with the last previous value, for this case of January) , this is:
The data for testing are:
DECLARE @PublicationsByUser AS TABLE
(
Id INT,
PublicationId INT,
MetricId INT,
ProviderId INT,
DateCreated DATE,
Amount FLOAT
[code]....

I have the following situation. One set of data has 274 rows (set2)and anther has 264 (set1). Both data sets are similar in structure aswell as values for both of them were extracts from the same parenttable. Hope the info would substitute DDL. I need to find the "gap"rows between these two sets.Attempted to run a query likeselect count(*)from set2where not exists(select *from set1)did not yield what I desired. What else to try?TIA.

What is the best way to compare two entries in a single table wherethe two fields are "almost" the same?For example, I would like to write a query that would compare thefirst two words in a "company" field. If they are the same, I wouldlike to output them.For example, "20th Century" and "20th Century Fox" in the companyfield would be the same.How do I do this? Do I need to use a cursor? Is it as simple as using"Like?"

I have this 40,000,000 rows table... I am trying to clean this 'Contacts' table since I know there are a lot of duplicates.
At first, I wanted to get a count of how many there are.
I need to compare records where these fields are matched:
MATCHED: (email, firstname) but not MATCH: (lastname, phone, mobile).
MATCHED: (email, firstname, mobile)
But not MATCH: (lastname, phone)
MATCHED: (email, firstname, lastname)
But not MATCH: (phone, mobile)

Greetings,
I am new to SQL Server. I've created a database with a key ID field that is set to automatically increment. Well, after adding records I've got some gaps in my numbering and want to renumber from 1 to eof.
What is the best way to do this in SQL Server 2005?
Thank you.

hello, i have quite a challenge on my hands here and would appreciate any help. :confused:
I have a table variable that stores integer ranges representing times of the day:
select * from @reservations
room date | starttime | endtime
1 2004-12-11 0 1440 (represents an entire day in minutes)
2 2004-12-12 420 1020
3 2004-12-14 200 600
4 2004-12-15 0 200
4 2004-12-15 500 1000
I need to be able to return the minutes that are open for each room. The @reservations table shows me the times that are blocked.
I'd like to analyze each row and return an integer range representing gaps in the day, where 0-1440 represents an entire day.
Based on the @reservations table above, I'd like to write something that returns:
room date starttime endtime
2 2004-12-12 0 420
2 2004-12-12 1020 1440
3 2004-12-14 0 200
3 2004-12-14 600 1440
4 2004-12-15 200 500
4 2004-12-15 1000 1440
This result represents the times in minutes that are available.
I have no clue how to do this without using a numbers table and checking each minute in each day for each row in the table. Id like to not do that because of sheer performance reasons. There is a possiblity that I will have hundreds of rows in the @reservations table.
I was hoping someone could provide some insight as to how to approach this. Thank you ahead of time! :)

Hi,
I have a table with an identity column..How will the identity gaps be adjusted if i delete few records in the table..ie..the sequence should automatically adjusted..Is there any way for this ?
ID Name City
1 abc xyz
2 mexm mcel
3 olekc kcome
Suppose i delete the record where ID=2..still the sequence should be auto adjusted..ie.the record of ID=3 should become ID=2 automatically..there shouldn't be any gaps.

I have a row in my report that has 6 columns. I want to outline the row with a border, but not the column lines in between. So, I went into BorderColor, changed the Default to white and my Top and Bottom colors as Black. The problem is that where the "white" column lines are, they are displaying 1pt gaps in my outline. I tried changing the BorderStyle to Zero, but it wouldn't take it.
See sample of the report here.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
James H.

Hi developers and architects,
I would like to know if it's possible to do "a gap to the left" in transact sql...
I have a table with:
ID Level1 Level2 Level3 Level4
1 NULL NULL 1 2
2 NULL 1 2 3
My results should be:
ID Level1 Level2 Level3 Level4
1 1 2 2 2
2 1 2 3 3
Currently I'm using a cursor to do that but I haven't good performance.
Do you have ideas?
Thanks a lot,
Jérémie

When I try to export my new report to PDF, I get extra blank lines in my list(s). My report has a list, with another list inside of it (among other textboxes). When I generate the report, or print it to a printer, it prints as expected. If I export to PDF, it adds in a bunch of blank lines into some of the inner lists. It doesn't seem to reflect any issue with the data, but it is consistent where it puts the spaces. Anyone know of any settings I might be missing?

I need to write a procedure to check if I have any gaps in my dates...
Start Date............End Date
10/6/2004............10/6/2005
10/6/2003............10/6/2004
7/10/2003..........10/6/2003
7/10/2002.............7/10/2003
What I need to do is test the End Date to the next row under the Start Date Column. (in bold to clarify) (moving upward from bottom)
sSQL011$ = "SELECT * FROM TableName " & _
"WHERE ID = '" & ID & "'"
Set rs011 = DB.OpenRecordset(sSQL011$, dbOpenDynaset)
Set Data1.Recordset = rs011
rs011.FindFirst "ID = " & ID
With rs011
do while .eof = False
if .eof then
exit sub
end if
if rs011("StartDate") 'from one record, if it is not equal to the Start
Date in the next record then
MsgBox "Gap in Dates for: " + ID
loop
end with
pseudo...
if the end date in one consecutive row is not the same as the start date in the next row then there is a date gap
thanks...

Create a table with an Identity column, insert data / restart the server / insert more data / restart the server/ insert some more data.
My data looks like this :
Identity column
1
2
3
1002
1003
1004
1005
2002
2004
It looks like the indentity value gain +~1000 after most server restart (sometimes identity stay the same). This can be very dangerous for some datatype! The only thing google told me was this : URL...but microsoft did not comment on it yet!

The identity int column in my sql2012 db is not incrementing properly.
I have a table which uses an int auto identity as a primary key it is sporadically skipping increments, for example:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1004, 1005
This is happening on a random number of tables at very random times...

Hi,
I have a SQL2005 db for tracking the prices of products at multiple retailers. The basic structure is, 'products' table lists individual products, 'retailer_products' table lists current prices of the products at multiple retailers, and 'price_history' table records when the price of a product changes at any retailer. The prices are checked from each retailer daily, but a row is added to the 'price_history' only when the price at the retailer changes.
Database create script:
http://www.boltfile.com/directdownload/db_create_script.sql
Full database backup:
http://www.boltfile.com/directdownload/database.bak
Database diagram:
http://www.boltfile.com/directdownload/diagram_0.pdf
I have the following query to retrieve the price history of a given product at multiple retailers:
SELECT
price_history.datetimeofchange, retailer.name, price_history.price
FROM
product, retailer, retailer_product, price_history
WHERE
product.id = 'b486ed47-4de4-417d-b77b-89819bc728cd'
AND
retailer_product.retailerid = retailer.id
AND
retailer_product.associatedproductid = product.id
AND
price_history.retailer_productid = retailer_product.id
This gives the following results:
2008-03-08 Example Retailer 22.3
2008-03-28 Example Retailer 11.8
2008-03-30 Example Retailer 22.1
2008-04-01 Example Retailer 11.43
2008-04-03 Example Retailer 11.4
The question(s) I have are how can I:
1 - Get the price of a product at a given retailer at a given date/time
For example, get the price of the product at Retailer 2 on 03/28/2008. Table only contains data for Retailer 1 for this date, the behaviour I want is when there is no data available for the query to find the last data at which there was data from that retailer, and use the price from that point - i.e. so for this example the query should result in 2.3 as the price, given that was the last recorded price change from that retailer (03/08/2008).
2 - Get the average price of a product at a given retailer at a given date/time
In this case we would need to perform (1) across all retailers, then average the results
I'd really appretiate anyone's help on this :)
many thanks in advance,
dg

Hi to all,
I'm a new member here and i would like to ask for some help regarding my problem. first i ahve an incremental primary key with format to something like this: 001-01-001, 001-01-002, 001-01-003, etc. My problem is that i want to insert (supply) the 'missing' or 'gaps' in my primary key field like for example: ..., 001-01-067, 001-01-068, 001-01-070. i want to insert the value 001-01-069 after the record 001-01-068. I have several gaps some ranging from several numbers like 005-04-007,005-04-020 which has a 13 records gap. Is there a way for stored procedure to solve this one?Thanks in advance.

I have a table with the following specifications:
[FutureArticleId] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[cFutureArticleTitle] [nvarchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[cDescription] [ntext] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[gCategoryId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[cKeyword] [ntext] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[bIsDeleted] [bit] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbl_FutureArticle_bIsDeleted] DEFAULT ((0)),
[tOnCreated] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[tOnUpdated] [datetime] NULL,
[gCreatedBy] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[gUpdatedBy] [bigint] NULL,
After some insertions and deletion from the UI, obviously there are gaps in the FutureArticleId column which is an identity column.
However, sometimes while inserting the records the records are being inserted into the gap and not in the next available Identity value.
Is there any table setting which I need to do, to stop this.
Please let me know
Thanks

Hi,
I have a table with date ranges for activitys. I need to get the userid , firstdayidle, lastdayidle for when a user has been idle in the last 90 days.
it gets tricky since it also must include users that have no records in activity table or only one record so it has 2 idle periods, etc
I have a hard time wrapping my head around the logic, weither using a datetables or not, so any help would be appreaciated
--my first step is to get the activitys that enter the last 90 days
select * from Activity2
where (enddate > DateAdd(d, -90, getDate()) AND enddate < getDate()) OR (startdate > DateAdd(d, -90, getDate()) AND startdate < getDate())
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[InternalUser](
[userid] [int],-- IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,

}
insert into [InternalUser] values(1,'a')
insert into [InternalUser] values(2,'b')
insert into [InternalUser] values(3,'c')
insert into [InternalUser] values(4,'d');
insert into [InternalUser] values(5,'e');
insert into [InternalUser] values(6,'f');

Hello, I have a report that looks fine in preview, but when put to PDF or printed contains gaps at the right and bottom.
Here is a picture of the problem: http://northeasttigers.webng.com/pdfproblem.jpg
My tables are the same width as the body, 15.5cm, and the report width is 21cm. Also adding the bottom table's top location attribute to it's height gives the same height as the body.
Any help much appreciated.

I have a system log with NULL gaps between a sequence of numbers...see "BEFORE" sample below.
The number of gaps between the Sequence_ID's are arbitrary, but generally less then 50 records.
I'd like enumerate the gaps to produce the "AFTER" result, but do it with a single query or view, not through procedures.
I've been playing with windowed functions and groupings with no success. I'm guessing it'll need some recursive CTE logic, but I haven't been able to figure it out the correct loop.
BEFORE:
PK_IDSequence_ID
1035586935587
3035586234 NULL
8355585 NULL
1235584 NULL
4675583 35583
4035582 NULL
6035382 NULL
1435581 NULL
2035580 NULL
3435553 35563
6603589 NULL
9475559 35552

insert into @t values ('A123', 'Test', '','')
insert into @t values ('', 'Test 1', 'Y','N')

Which comes out as
col1 col2 col3 col4
(No column name)
A123 Test
1
Test 1
Y N 0
Y N
0
A125 Test
1
Test 9
Y N 0
N Y
0
but what I would like is col 1 populated As A123 until it hits A125 then populated A125 etc. I was thinking about using the iff but not getting anywhere fast.

See sample data below. I want hourly breakdown for the last X years, the month and day will be the same for each year.
SELECT '2013-12-10 04:00:00.000' as dt, 220.50 as amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 06:00:00.000' as dt, 24.50 as amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 07:00:00.000' as dt, 527.50 as amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 08:00:00.000' as dt, 28.50 as amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 11:00:00.000' as dt, 25.50 as amt UNION ALL
[Code] .....
-- expected result
SELECT '2013-12-10 00:00:00.000' AS dt, NULL AS Amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 01:00:00.000', NULL AS Amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 02:00:00.000', NULL AS Amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 03:00:00.000', NULL AS Amt UNION ALL
SELECT '2013-12-10 04:00:00.000', 220.50 AS Amt UNION ALL
[code].....

I have a table containing typed log entries. One log entry is supposedto be created every twelve hours, but sometimes there are gaps. I needto create a report showing the time of entry, and the actual log entry.I can't just list the contents of the log table, because if I do thatthere will be dates missing. Instead, when there isn't a log entry fora date, I need to print the date, and then just leave the log entryblank.The SQL bellows shows what the output should look like. HOWEVER, thecode below makes use of a temp table containing all possible dates. Myquestion is, is there a better way to do this - one that doesn'tinvolve the temp table? Thanks in advance.create table StationLog (LogDate datetime, LogText char(11))insert StationLog values ('1/1/2005 00:00:00','entry one')insert StationLog values ('1/1/2005 12:00:00','entry two')insert StationLog values ('1/2/2005 00:00:00','entry three')insert StationLog values ('1/3/2005 00:00:00','entry four')create table Date_List (TempDate datetime)insert Date_List values ('1/1/2005 00:00:00')insert Date_List values ('1/1/2005 12:00:00')insert Date_List values ('1/2/2005 00:00:00')insert Date_List values ('1/2/2005 12:00:00')insert Date_List values ('1/3/2005 00:00:00')insert Date_List values ('1/3/2005 12:00:00')select TempDate, LogTextfrom Date_Listleft outer join StationLog on Date_List.TempDate = StationLog.LogDatedrop table StationLogdrop table Date_List

I have the default trace on a SQL Server 2008R2 instance enabled and found today that there is a gap of nearly 4 minutes in the trace during a time of the day when there most certainly is not going to be a 4 minute window of nothing.
What if anything could cause the default trace to have a gap like this? The SQL Server Instance (against my preferences) is hosted on VMware however it has its on HOST and so its resources are not being shared with any other server. The data & log files reside on different parts of the SANS. Our IT & Network admins are looking into the issue on their end but when I looked and found a near 4 minute gap in the default trace it hit me that this could be something above/outside of SQL Server.

I have a data set (snippet below) and I need to count the number of consecutive years based on a date in time for each ID as represented below.
ID DATE
------ --------
1 2000-05-03
1 2001-06-10
1 2002-04-02
1 2005-07-29
1 2010-12-15
4 2001-05-07
4 1999-08-01
4 2000-07-05
4 2001-08-01
9 2002-05-01
9 2000-04-02
My result set needs to be something like:
ID Count of Consecutive Years
------- -----------------------------
1 2
4 2
9 0
I know this is a gaps and islands type problem but nothing I have been able to find is working once I attempt modification so that it can fit my dataset. Please note that I am going to use the data return to populate another table that is currently being populated using a cursor that utilizes an insert statement based on different codes.

We just switched from Sql server 2008R2 to Sql server 2012.I am facing one problem with identity Columns "When ever i restarts my sql server,the seed value for each identity column is increased by 1000 (For int identity column it is 1000 and for big int it is 10000).
"For Example if seed value of any table was 3 then after restarting sql server will be 1003 if i again restart sql server it will be 2003 and so on."
After searching on google i found that it is a new feature (don't know what is use of it) in sql server 2012 and having only two solution if you want old identity concept
1. Use sequence object -
a) I am using same database in sql server 2008 and 2012 both so can't use sequence in 2008.
b) if i go with sequence then need not change save procedure for each table,which is bulky task for us.
2. Use Trace Flag 272 (-T272)
I can go with this solution because there is need not do any changes in my application.Some one suggested me that add -T272 in startup parameter,after this sql server identity column will work normal as previous version.I did the same but it is not working.
I don't want to do any changes in my database structure.
how to use this -T272 or why it is not working.
I don't want to use this new identity feature how to suppress it. Why -T272 is not working.

Hello,
I'm new to MDX and was hoping someone could answer this question. I'm working on an MDX query, a simplified version is below.
What I'm trying to do is to pull 2 sets, based on a date range. Based on those, I'd like to see the total "cost" measure for each set, and divide one by another.
What I'm finding is that when I run the query below, the cost is broken out by month. So, my select statement gives me the cost for January 2008 and February 2008 in the CurrentPeriod set, and for January, February, etc. 2007 in the PriorPeriodData set. What I want instead is to get the total "cost" measure for all the months in each set. I believe this is what I'd get if I put the date range in a subcube or a where clause - but in that case, I wouldn't be working with 2 distinct sets.
Is there some other way to write this, or to combine all the months in the set before the measures?
WITH
SET [CurrentPeriod] AS
'{[Activity Date].[Date].&[2008-01-01T00:00:00]:[Activity Date].[Date].&[2008-02-01T00:00:00]}'
SET [PriorPeriod] AS
'{[Activity Date].[Date].&[2007-01-01T00:00:00]:[Activity Date].[Date].&[2007-12-01T00:00:00]}'
MEMBER [Measures].[Cost Variance] AS
'([CurrentPeriod],[Measures].[Cost]) /
([PriorPeriodData],[Measures].[Cost])'
SELECT NON EMPTY {
([CurrentPeriod],[Measures].[Cost]),
([PriorPeriodData],[Measures].[Cost]),
([Measures].[Cost Variance])
} ON COLUMNS
FROM [Cube]
Thanks for your help!
