ORDER BY Question: Splitting String Into 2 Orders?
Jul 20, 2005
I have a column named "LIST" in a table with strings like the following:
151231-1002-02-1001
151231-1001-02-1001
151231-1002-02-1002
151231-1003-02-1001
etc....
What I'd like to do is include an ORDER BY statement that splits the
string, so that the order would be by the second set of four numbers
(i.e. between the first and second - marks), followed by the third set
of two numbers, and then by the last set of four numbers.
How would I do something like this?

Hi,
I am using a stored procedure that is databound to a dropdownlist. The stored procedure works fine, aside from the fact that the ORDER BY only sorts the list of items using the first character in the cell. E.g. The numbers 1, 20, 100 and 200 would be ordered as follows:
1
100
20
200
clearly i am doing something wrong and i apologise if it is a stupid question, but could anyone please offer me some help?
Thank you,
Shep

I have a request for being able to show ordertotals for those orders that contains a specific productgroup.
Case
Order 1  ProductGroup  Value
A 20
B 40
C 40
Total 100
Order 2  ProductGroup  Value
A 20
DÂ 40
Total 60
So if i slice OrderTotal by ProductGroup the result will be
A 160
B 100
C 100
D 60
ALL Â Â Â Â Â Â 160
how to solve this.

Hello All,
I'm a non-programmer and an SQL newbie. I'm trying to create a printer usage report using LogParser and SQL database. I managed to export data from the print server's event log into a table in an SQL2005 database.
There are 3 main columns in the table (PrintJob) - Server (the print server name), TimeWritten (timestamp of each print job), String (eventlog message containing all the info I need). My problem is I need to split the String column which is a varchar(255) delimited by | (pipe). Example:
2|Microsoft Word - ราย�ารรับ.doc|Sukanlaya|HMb1_SD_LJ2420|IP_192.10.1.53|82720|1
The first value is the job number, which I don't need. The second value is the printed document name. The third value is the owner of the printed document. The fourth value is the printer name. The fifth value is the printer port, which I don't need. The sixth value is the size in bytes of the printed document, which I don't need. The seventh value is the number of page(s) printed.
How I can copy data in this table (PrintJob) into another table (PrinterUsage) and split the String column into 4 columns (Document, Owner, Printer, Pages) along with the Server and TimeWritten columns in the destination table?
In Excel, I would use combination of FIND(text_to_be_found, within_text, start_num) and MID(text, start_num, num_char). But CHARINDEX() in T-SQL only starts from the beginning of the string, right? I've been looking at some of the user-defind-function's and I can't find anything like Excel's FIND().
Or if anyone can think of a better "native" way to do this in T-SQL, I've be very grateful for the help or suggestion.
Thanks a bunch in advance,
Chutikorn

Hello,I have been placed in charge of migrating an old access based databaseover to sql server 7.0. So far, I have imported all the tables intosql server, but now I have come across the issue of needing to split astring variable. For instance, in the old database, the variable forname was such that it included both first and last names, whereas inthe new database there are seperate entities for first and last name.I know that there is a way to write a script that will separate out thetwo strings by using the "space" in between the name, but I'munfamiliar how to do this. Any suggestions? Thanks!Rick

If I have a string of
'WLL EXT FACE REND'
how would I go about splitting the string into 4 strings of
'WLL'
'EXT'
'FACE'
'REND'
I know that for the first bit I can use a combination of PATINDEX and LEFT, but not sure how I can pull out the rest of them.
Thanks

I'm trying to split a hyphen-delimited string into three columns in a view. I've been using substring and len to split up the string, but it is getting very complicated (and isn't working in all cases). I've used a SPLIT function in vbscript - does t-sql have anything similar? I've attached a spreadsheet that shows what I am looking for. Maybe someone can guide me in the right direction?
Thanks.

Hi all!
I'm trying to get some XML data into SQL Server but i ran into problem when inserting the data (multiple orders with multiple order details) using a single sproc. Is it possible, or do I have to do in some other way? :confused:
I simplified my example to this:
-----------------------------
--CREATE PROCEDURE sp_InsertOrders AS
DECLARE @docHandle INT, @xmlDoc VARCHAR(4000), @orderID INT
--DROP TABLE #Orders
CREATE TABLE #Orders
(
OrderId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkCustomerID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
OrderDate DATETIME NOT NULL
)
--DROP TABLE #OrderDetails
CREATE TABLE #OrderDetails
(
OrderDetailsId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkOrderID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
ProductID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
UnitPrice SMALLINT NOT NULL
)
Set @xmlDoc = '
<Orders>
<Order CustomerID="1" OrderDate="2004-04-01">
<OrderDetails ProductID="6" UnitPrice="19"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="3" UnitPrice="11"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="9" UnitPrice="7"/>
</Order>
<Order CustomerID="2" OrderDate="2004-04-12">
<OrderDetails ProductID="2" UnitPrice="24"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="4" UnitPrice="13"/>
</Order>
</Orders>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @docHandle OUTPUT, @xmlDoc
INSERT INTO #Orders (FkCustomerID, OrderDate)
SELECT CustomerID, OrderDate
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order', 3)
WITH (
CustomerID INTEGER,
OrderDate DATETIME
)
SET @OrderID = @@IDENTITY;
--INSERT INTO #OrderDetails (@OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice)
SELECT @OrderID AS OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order/OrderDetails', 3)
WITH (
ProductID INTEGER,
UnitPrice INTEGER
)
-----------------------------
All orders are inserted first which makes the use of @@IDENTITY incorrect (it works fine if you insert a single order with multiple order details). Since it was quite some time since I last worked with SQL I am not sure if am doing it the right way... :confused: :confused: Anybody out there who knows how to solve the problem?
Cheers,
Christian

I have a string like say: '3:4:5:4,2:4:1,4:1:2:5:2'. Now I need to split the substrings delimited by commas. So my final output shall be
3:4:5:4
2:4:1
4:1:2:5:2
I did write a piece of code to achieve the same, but I feel its not so efficient. Can anyone suggest me a better way, if any? My code is as follows:
Declare @person as varchar(255), @cnt smallint,@loc smallint,@prevloc smallint, @str varchar(255)
Select @prevloc=0,@loc=1,@cnt=1,@person = '3:4:5:4,2:4:1,4:1:2:5:2'
While @loc != 0
begin
set @prevloc=(case when @loc = 1 then 0 else @loc end) +1
set @loc = charindex(',',@person,@loc+1)
Set @str = substring(@person,@prevloc,(Case when @loc = 0 then len(@person) - @prevloc + 1 else @loc - @prevloc end))
print 'String = ' + @Str
set @cnt=@cnt+1
end
RESULT
------
String = 3:4:5:4
String = 2:4:1
String = 4:1:2:5:2
Note: My actual purpose is to also sub split it again with ':' delimiter too. So looking for an efficient code.

I'm creating a web-based NT RAS report site and am looking for the most efficient way to import the data from NT Event log into SQL2k. I'm using the 'dumpel' utility from rsc kit and all is fine except the 10th column - the message detail:
"The user DOMAINuserid connected on port Mdm15 on 08/23/2002 at 07:25am and disconnected on 08/23/2002 at 07:27am. The user was active for 2 minutes 23 seconds. 78809 bytes were sent and 50675 bytes were received. The port speed was 49300."
I need to parse this one long text string into 6 distinct columns: userID, port, duration, bytes_xmt, bytes_rcv and portspeed. After a quick review of the rowsets, the strings seem to hold a consistent output ... no real variances I can see.
I've dablled with views but am facing a small performance issue that could get bigger: The sql server not only has to run the text file import package, but also the view to format the text dump into a workable dataset, then my report code bangs over 30 queries against the final dataset. It already takes our SQL2k server over 3 minutes to parse about 20,000 rows and the server's a beast (dual 1.8 p4 cpu, 3gb ram, raid, etc).
What I think would work best is to abandon the view (performance will only get worse as the row count increases) and instead INSERT the rows into one table.
Any ideas anyone? any good scripts out there that can help me to parse the long text string quicker that using substring and replace functions?
TIA:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So we have a field called forenames, and it needs to be split into fields forename_1, forename_2, forename_3, forename_4 (don't ask).
Ok, I've come up with this so far, which works, but is pretty nacky in my opinion. Has any one got a better way of achieving this?
SELECT forenames
, Replace(forenames, ' ', '.')
, Reverse(ParseName(Replace(Reverse(forenames), ' ', '.'), 1)) As [f1]
, Reverse(ParseName(Replace(Reverse(forenames), ' ', '.'), 2)) As [f2]
, Reverse(ParseName(Replace(Reverse(forenames), ' ', '.'), 3)) As [f3]
, Reverse(ParseName(Replace(Reverse(forenames), ' ', '.'), 4)) As [f4]
FROM ( SELECT 'John' As [forenames]
UNION SELECT 'John Paul'
UNION SELECT 'John Paul George'
UNION SELECT 'John Paul George Ringo'
) As [x]
Results
forenames (no column name) f1 f2 f3 f4
---------------------- ---------------------- ---- ---- ------ -----
John John John NULLNULL NULL
John Paul John.Paul John PaulNULL NULL
John Paul George John.Paul.George John PaulGeorgeNULL
John Paul George Ringo John.Paul.George.Ringo John PaulGeorgeRingo

I have a large poorly designed table (inherited) With a Name field that contains comma delimited text containing address information. I need to do several things with it but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any true consistency in it. When it displays in its own text box it works by placing each section on a new Line and looks ok.But I need to pull it apart and place things like unit number, Building Name in its own column etc. In the data it could be in either the 2nd,3rd, 4th, dependent on what came 1st. the data looks some thing like the following
unitNumber/StreetNumber Space StreetName (Building Name), Subub,City,Country
Some addresses won't have unit number or Suburb or country so when splitting you could have Suburbs and Citys in multiple columns even if you try and stagger the split process.Has any body go a good tool or reference site for dealing for this sort of problem. I have a table that I have made up that has some of the street names that could be used for comparing against existing records but it is by no means fool proof due to spelling inconsistencies . I also have another list of Common building names that could be used to compare, remove and place in the new building column.

Hi All!!!
I was tasked to come up with a search function and the content of the database given to me is in Chinese Characters. This would be my first time dealing with Chinese characters in the database and I need help with the following problem:
The company wants to conduct the search in such a way that, instead of having the system read the entire sentence/phrase which the user keyed in as a SINGLE string, they want the Chinese Characters to be accessed individually, so that as long as any information in the database contains any one of the characters which the user have entered, they will be retrieved and returned.
So how do I go about doing this? Does it have anything to do with Unicode? By the way, everything abt the search tool is working fine, I am just left with this dilemma of having the system recognise the entire sentence as ONE STRING, instead of conducting a search word by word or character by character.
Anyway, the following is the SQL statement of my SQL Data Source which is bound to a Gridview displaying the returned results after a search is done...1 SELECT Name, Trans, Address1, Address1T, Address2, Address2T, City, CityT, CRPLID
2 FROM CRPL
3 WHERE (Trans LIKE '%' + @Trans + '%') OR
4 (Name LIKE '%' + @Name + '%') OR
5 (Address1 LIKE '%' + @Address1 + '%') OR
6 (Address1T LIKE '%' + @Address1T + '%') OR
7 (Address2 LIKE '%' + @Address2 + '%') OR
8 (Address2T LIKE '%' + @Address2T + '%') OR
9 (City LIKE '%' + @City + '%') OR
10 (CityT LIKE '%' + @CityT + '%')
Thanks for all your help in advance!!!

Hi to everyone,My problem is, that I'm not so quite sure, which way should I go.The user is inputing by second part application a long string (let'ssay 128 characters), which are separated by semiclon.Example:A20;BU;AC40;MA50;E;E;IC;GREENNow: each from this position, is already defined in any other table, asa separate record. These are the keys lets say. It means, a have someproperities for A20, BU, aso.Because this long inputed string, is a property of device (whih alsohas a lot of different properities) I could do two different ways ofstoring data:1. By writing, in SP, just encapsulate each of the position separatedby semicolon, and write into a different table with index of device,and the position in long stirng nearly in this way:Major device data tableID AnyData1 AnyData2 ... AnyData3123 MZD12 XX77 .... any comment text124 MZD13 XY55 ... any other commentString data Tablefk_deviceId position value123 1 A20123 2 BU123 3 AC40.....123 8 GREENThe device table, contains also a pointer (position), which mightchange, to "hglight" specified position.Then, I can very easly find all necessary data. The problem is, I needto move the device record data (from other table) very often into otherhistory table (by each update). That will mean, that I also need tomove all these records from 1 -8 for example to a separate historytable, holding the index for a history device dataset. This is a littleinconvinience in this, and in my opinion, it will use to much storagedata, and by programming, I need always to shift this properities intohistory table, whith indexes to a history table of other properities.2. Table will be build nearly in this way:Major device data tableID AnyData1 AnyData2 ... AnyData3 stringProperty pointer123 MZD12 XX77 .... any comment text A20;BU;AC40;MA50;E;E;IC;GREEN 3124 MZD13 XY55 ... any other comment A20;BU;AC40;MA50;E;E;IC;GREEN 2By writng into device table, there will be just a additional field forthis string, and I will have a function, which according to specifiedpointer, will get me the string part on the fly, while I need it.This will not require the other table, and will reduce the amout ofdata, not a lot ... but always.This solution, has a inconvinance, that it will be not so fast doing asearch over the part of this strings, while there will be no real indexon this.If I woould like to search all devices, by which the curent pointervalue is equal GREEN, then I need to use function for getting thevalue, and this one will be not indexed, means, by a lot amount ofdata, might be slow.I would like to know Your opinion about booth solutions.Also, if you might point me the other problems with any of thissolution, I might not have noticed.With Best RegardsMatik

Hi,
I have a function which takes a string and a delimter. It then splits the string by the delimter and returns a table of resultant strings:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[vs_SplitTags] (@sep char(1), @s varchar(512))
RETURNS table
AS
RETURN (
WITH Pieces(pn, start, stop) AS
(
SELECT 1, 1, CHARINDEX(@sep, @s)
UNION ALL
SELECT pn + 1, stop + 1, CHARINDEX(@sep, @s, stop + 1)
FROM Pieces
WHERE stop > 0
)
SELECT pn,
SUBSTRING(@s, start, CASE WHEN stop > 0 THEN stop-start ELSE 512 END) AS s
FROM Pieces
)
This works very well, other than instances of the delimter are, themselves, considered to be results. For example:
SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', 'foo bar') AS result
returns:
pn s
1 foo
2 bar
which is exactly the result I would want.
However,
SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', ' foo bar ') AS result -- There are spaces before 'foo' and after 'bar'
returns
pn s
1
2 foo
3 bar
4
And
SELECT * FROM vs_SplitTags(' ', 'foo bar') AS result -- There are two spaces between 'foo' and 'bar'
returns
pn s
1 foo
2
3
4 bar
I want the function to ignore whitespace altogether, be it a single space or multiple spaces. Other than to delimit the boundries between words, of course.
In other words, all three examples above should produce the same result:
pn s
1 foo
2 bar
How can I do this? Any thoughts much appreciated...

Hello,
I am trying to extract from some strings like the following strings the number and order them by that number:
Box 1
Box 2
Box 3
Box 20
Box 21
...(and so on)
The problem I am having is that I already extracted the number using
Substring([field],[starting position],[lenght])
but the output seems to be in a string format, so the order is not in an ascending order.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Note the code below, running on the version noted.
I just found this today, figured I'd share. Not sure if it's a known bug or a "special" feature. The only difference between the two queries is the 3rd line, everything else is the same. Notice that the sort order changes, yet no errors or warnings are given. I assume that the table aliases are ignored for the order by, unless there are duplicate column names in the results.
I abstracted this from a bug I discovered in one of my apps today, where I have sales reps assigned to their clients with start and end dates. A while back, a developer asked me to format the dates without the time portion, and when I did so, I introduced the problem. I resolved it temporarily by ordering by convert(datetime, startdate) but I found it strange that the column alias match overrides the table alias attempted match in the order by. Another way to get around this would be to change the column aliases, then the sort order would be as desired, but I didn't want to have to change the app code for something so trivial.
My apologies if this is a duplicate.

"The database you are attempting to restore was backed up under a different sort order ID (52) than the one you are currently using on this server (50) and at least one of them is a non binary sort order. Backup or restore operation operation terminating abnormally."
The server that i am trying to restore to already has databases on this so i cannot just reinstall SQL and change the sort order not that id know how to do that but this is what i have read.
Is htere anyway that i can put insome script for the database to fix this ???
Im using Enterprise manager with SQL server 7
Thanks in advance

Good day.
Am new with SQL server and i use SQL Server 2005
i have 3 tables (1 = customers, 2 = orders, 3 = keys) both these tables are linked by the key table
I wanna be able to "view" (as am only allowed to view) the last three orders for every customer.
I tried using the top predicate/ clause with a group by & count but unfortunately am getting no where.
Please kindly help

I have a pretty straight forward fact table that contains order information like this:
DateTimeStamp Price OrderID
I have a measure that does a simple row count for orders placed. How can I get the Max Orders Placed grouped by Hour? Something similar to this:
0:00 15
1:00 25
2:00 50
.....
23:00 75
I tried to do a max function like max([time].[hour], [measures].[Order Row Count]) but ended up with only one value. I know I'm doing it wrong.
I appreciate any help on this.
