I have a stored procedure in my SQL 2005 Server database named Foo that accepts two parameters, @paramA and @paramB.In my ASP.NET page, I have these:<asp:GridView id="gv" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="true" DataSourceID="DS" AllowSorting="true" DataKeyNames="ID"/><asp:SqlDataSource ID="DS" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:CS1 %>" SelectCommand="Foo" SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure" OnSelecting="DS_Selecting"> <asp:Parameter Name="paramA" Type="String" /> <asp:Parameter Name="paramB" Type="String" /></asp:SqlDataSource>In my setup, paramA and paramB are set in DS_Selecting(), where I can access the Command.Parameters[] of DS.Now, here's the problem. As you can see, the GridView allows for sorting. When you click on a header title to sort, however, the GridView becomes empty. My question is, how can I get the GV sorted and in the correct direction (i.e. asc/desc)? My first step in my attempt was to add another parameter to the SqlDataSource and sotred procedure Foo (e.g. @SortByColumn), then changed Foo appropriately: ALTER PROCEDURE Foo @paramA nvarchar(64), @paramB nvarchar(64), @SortColumn nvarchar(16) = 'SearchCount' AS SELECT * FROM Searches ORDER BY CASE WHEN @SortColumn='SearchCount' THEN SearchCount WHEN @SortColumn='PartnerName' THEN PartnerName ELSE ID ENDThat works find and dandy. But wait--I want to get the correct ORDER BY direction too! So I add another parameter to the SqlDataSource and Foo (@SortDirection), then alter Foo: ... SELECT * From Searchces ORDER BY CASE /* Keep in mind that CASE short-circuits */ WHEN @SortColumn='SearchCount' AND @SortDirection='desc' SearchCount DESC WHEN @SortColumn='SearchCount' SearchCount WHEN @SortColumn='PartnerName' AND @SortDirection='desc' PartnerName DESC WHEN @SortColumn='PartnerName' PartnerName WHEN @SortColumn='ID' AND @SortDirection='desc' ID DESC ELSE ID END ...But including DESC or ASC after the column name to sort by causes SQL to error. What the heck can I do, besides convert all my stored procedures into in-line statements inside the ASP page, where I could then dynamically construct the appropriate SQL statement? I'm really at a loss on this one! Any help would be much appreciated!Am I missing a much simpler solution? I am making this too complicated?

Hey guys, I have a view with dates (TheDate) meant to be arranged in descending order. When I 'Execute SQL' while in the view, the DESC order works just fine and shows up with the latest date first going down. However, once I 'OPEN VIEW' the order keeps defaulting to ASCending order.
How do I keep it in DESC order for viewing? Here's the statement:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT TheDate
FROM dbo.MyDates
ORDER BY TheDate DESC

Does anyone have a general rule or guide on when to use this SQL 2000 option when creating indexes? I was thinking generally on nonclustered indexes where the column would be unique and incremental and usually filtered on by range and often used in the order by clause. Such as columns of datetime or integers datatypes. Thanks.

I am trying to sort by a date and then use a secondary sort on another column date field. The first date sorts properly, but the second is not in sorted order. I have also tried ORDER BY first date, second date and that queries the information in sorted by the first date, but then not sorted by the second date. Any ideas?

I am trying to order by the field and direction as provided by input parameters @COLTOSORTBY and @DIR while using a CTE and assigning Row_Number, but am running into syntax errors.
Say I have a table called myTable with columns col1,col2,col3,
Here's what I'm trying to do
with myCTE AS
(
Select
col1

,row_number() over (order by
case when(@DIR = 'ASC') then
case when @COLTOSORTBY='col1' then col1 asc
when @COLTOSORTBY='col2' then col2 asc
else col3 asc
end
else
case when @COLTOSORTBY='col1' then col1 desc
when @COLTOSORTBY='col2' then col2 desc

Hello, i have something like this, i want the annoucements (status = 0) to be on top, then topics with (status = 1) below, then the rest of the topics.
So i tried:
SELECT forum_topics.id, forum_topics.status, forum_topics.username AS starter, forum_topics.subject, forum_topics.closed, forum_topics.answerpostid, forum_topics.views, forum_topics.answers, forum_topics.lastanswer, forum_topics.lastanswerid, forum_topics.created AS started, forum_answer.username, forum_answer.answer, forum_answer.created FROM forum_topics LEFT OUTER JOIN forum_answer ON forum_answer.id = forum_topics.lastanswerid WHERE (boardid = @ID OR boardid = 0) ORDER BY (status) ASC, (created) ASC
Problem is that they are not sorted diffrently, when i change the (created) ASC to (created) DESC i get the same result and the rows are not sorted, they only get sorted by status so i have status=0 at the top, then status=1 then the rest. How do i get them to be sorted first by status ASC then by created ASC/DESC?

Hello all,The followinq qurey returns sometimes values of null to some of this columns, byK,byT,byD. the column F wil not contains any nulls, and 0 will be populated in it at any case of .Now, the problem is that when sorting out F the sort will not work when there is null parameters in byK because teh fact that a 0 values is greater then NULL value, and the sort of F will not take in considiration. So I guess the question is how can I sort NULL values and 0 values to be the same weight in the sort by command? SELECT A.gym_id as gym,s_id, week, gym_name, boxer, league, sum(points)
points,sum(byK)as byK, sum(byT) as byT,sum(byPoints) as byPoints ,
sum(byD) as byD, count(C.gym) as F
FROM A inner JOIN B ON A.gym_id = B.gym_id
left JOIN C ON A.gym_id = C.gym
WHERE (B.l_id = ?text
group by A.gym_id
order by points DESC,byK DESC,byT DESC, byPoints DESC, byD DESC,F ASC

I am using Access 2003 as a front-end to a SQL Server 2005 database.I make design changes using SQL Server Management Studio. I have atable that includes a datetime column. I create a view and sort bythe datetime field. When I initially look at the result it is sortedcorrectly. Then I save the view and re-open it and it is not sorted.I've simplified the view so it only contains the date field and itstill does not sort. Here is the view:SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT Period_DateFROM dbo.Period_SummaryORDER BY Period_Date DESCThe date seems to be a random order.I don't have this problem in the SQL Server 2000 version of thedatabase.Help please!Thanks,Jerry

I have a problem with an Order By sort on a SubmissionDate column in my SQLSERVER DB.
I am inputing a timestamp in this format into the column above: 1/18/2005 11:03:19 AM
Problem is, once I sort this column in DESC order to return the results to a datalist dates with a time like this:
1/18/2005 1:03:19 AM
get placed out of place (lower on the return in DESC/higher on the return in ASC). I am assuming this is happening because it reads 1 as coming before 11 instead of after like it is with time. If this was in 24 hour format this wouldn't be a problem I guess because 1PM would be 13, so that is after 11.
Anyone know what I can do to get this sorted correctly?

Hi, I've created a website usiing asp.net and all the data are stored in sql front. All the item are sorted in ascending order except one record. The correct order should be MP61, MP100, MP200, but this record is retrieved as MP100, MP200, MP61. If the coding is wrong, all the order displayed is not in ascending order. We have hundreds of items, but why it happens to this particular record? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have a situation where I need to sort the output of a cursor. But since the sort criteria are rather complex, I am NOT able to use the Order By clause directly with the cursor definition statement.
Hence, I need to have a solution where I will use a dummy (calculated) field within the CURSOR and I want the output of this cursor sorted by the dummy field that I calculated within the cursor itself.
Please let me know the different possibilities in this scenario.
Thank you in advance

I am trying to sort this simplied table:
ID - Time
1 2000-2001
2 2002-
3 2001-2003
4 1999
5 2005-2006
I want this as a result:
1999
2000-2001
2001-2003
2005-2006
2002-
Because the "-" means "continues", it the thing is still activated, so if it makes it easier, i could put the today's year afterwards during the query, if it ends with a - ...
Now, simply doing a
SELECT * FROM [table] ORDER BY TIME;
Sorts it "perfectly", apart from the "2002-" is just placed before 2005 and after 2001.
So, of course, it fails on all entries with a leading "-" ...
Right when I clicked "submit", of course, I can simply replace all entries with a time ending with "-", with the todays Year, so at least they will get at the end of the query...
Well, have to do a union, first sorting all without the "-", then sorting all with the "-", and that should be it...

If you look at the General Properties for a report in Report Manager, there are 4 properties listed at the top:
Modified Date:
2/26/2007 6:37 PM
Modified By:
DOMAINusername1
Creation Date:
2/14/2006 5:19 PM
Created By:
DOMAINusername2
What I'm looking for is if there's a way to retrieve these properties via an expression from a textbox within a report. For instance, there's already an expression that is:
=Globals!ReportName
I know it won't be that easy for the CreatedBy, CreationDate, ModifiedBy, and ModifiedDate properties, but I thought I'd ask if there was a workaround or hack.
We're wanting to put that info into the footer of all our reports. (Actually this is for Report Builder reports, but you can still use expressions in Report Builder reports, so it should apply as it would to normal reports.)

I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.
So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.
Any suggestions would help.

SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int. When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end. The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order. The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

Hi,
I have been training in SQL on MySQL, and now that I am on TSQL, I can't seem to find an equivalent to the command:
Code Snippet
DESC table_name;--OR
DESCRIBE table_name;
In MySQL, either command returns a list of the columns of the table, as well specifications about these columns (whether or not they can accept NULL values, their default values, etc.)

There is a index: CustomerInfo_1
with keys: customerId, EnteryDate DESC
I could not find where the order of index key (i.e. whether the key is ascending or descending) is stored?
I tried system tables such as sysindexes and sysindexkeys tables. But could not find it.
Any help in this regard will be truly appreciated.
Thank you.

I have come across a problem executing a select with a multi-part where clause that only shows up if there are multiple indexes on the table. The situation using a simplified table is shown below
create table tblTest( utcTimestamp datetime NOT NULL, testType int NOT NULL)go
insert into tblTest (utcTimestamp, testType) VALUES('6/1/2003 0:0:0', 100)go
Now, without adding any indexes to the table, I can execute the following select and it works fine, returning the single row in 2003:
select * from tblTest where utcTimestamp < '1/1/2004 0:0:0' and utcTimestamp > '1/1/2003 0:0:0' and testType = 100go
Furthermore, if I introduce a single descending index on just the utcTimestamp:
CREATE INDEX IX_tblTest_Timestamp ON tblTest (utcTimestamp DESC)go
the search still works.
HOWEVER, if I now introduce another index:
CREATE INDEX IX_tblTest_EntryType_Timestamp ON tblTest ( testType, utcTimestamp DESC)go
the search does **not** return the row.
However, if I change the where clause to remove the test of testType:
select * from tblTest where utcTimestamp < '1/1/2004 0:0:0' and utcTimestamp > '1/1/2003 0:0:0'go
it works.
Also, strangely, if I populate the table with a number of records with different dates and execute the following search:
select * from tblTest where utcTimestamp > '1/1/2004 0:0:0' and testType = 100go
I get records from **earlier** than 1/1/2004 (i.e. like the sense of the compare is wrong)
Finally, as I was writing this report, I discovered that all of these problems go away if the DESC is removed from the indexes - so that's my workaround, but it still looks like a bug.
Thanks

Imagine the following scenario-
Identity(1,1) column ID is primary key and only clustered index key.
Rows will be inserted regularly into this table, hundreds per day.
Queries will be mostly selecting on the most recent records.
In a year, the row will have half a million records or so and only the most recent records will be used. There will be a forward-rolling hot spot, of most recent records.
Does the direction of the ID column in the clustered index make a difference?
I'm thinking no, because query plan will go to that leaf in an index seek regardless of whether it is old or new, "bottom" or "top" of index, especially if the query is very specific on the ID.
I've read this
http://mattadamson.blogspot.com/2005/05/choosing-between-ascending-or.html
but it didn't address (or perhaps didn't need to) this sort of scenario.

Hi,
We recently migrated our application from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 and we also migrated from WAS5 to WAS6.
We are getting the following exception when we call any of the stored procedures.
The server failed to resume the transaction. Desc200000003.
Basically we call these stored procedures frequently using the Java thread scheduler.
We didnt face any problem when we use IBM drivers
I guess this is the problem with the drivers.We use JDBC 2005 driver Version 1.1.
But we didnt face this problems when we use JDBC 2000 driver when we used to connect to SQL Server 2000
The Microsoft says that it has fixed the date problems as well as the transaction problems in the version 1.1.But still are facing the issues.
Can anyone of you please help me in getting the solution for the same?
