Hi peso, hi KH, Hi everyone....
Declare @day int
set @day = 3
select right('0' + @day, 2)
My expected result is : 03
If single integer - will append in the right a '0'.
If 2 digit integer - will return the actual value.
Thanks.

I am trying to return rows from a query and I want to display the information from 2 columns into one. Here is my query:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.CASES.CaseID, dbo.CASENUMBERTYPES.CaseNumTypeDesc, dbo.CASENUMBERS.CaseNumber,
dbo.SCANNEDDOCUMENTS.TopicID, dbo.EVENTS.EventTypeID, dbo.EVENTS.ev_StartDate, dbo.SCANNEDDOCUMENTS.Doc
FROM dbo.SCANNEDDOCUMENTS INNER JOIN
dbo.CASES ON dbo.SCANNEDDOCUMENTS.CaseID = dbo.CASES.CaseID INNER JOIN
dbo.CASENUMBERS ON dbo.CASES.CaseID = dbo.CASENUMBERS.CaseID INNER JOIN
dbo.CASENUMBERTYPES ON dbo.CASENUMBERS.CaseNumTypeID = dbo.CASENUMBERTYPES.CaseNumTypeID INNER JOIN
dbo.EVENTS ON dbo.CASES.CaseID = dbo.EVENTS.CaseID
WHERE (dbo.CASENUMBERTYPES.CaseNumTypeDesc IN ('cc', 'dc')) AND (dbo.EVENTS.EventTypeID IN (7048, 6467)) AND
(dbo.SCANNEDDOCUMENTS.TopicID IN (2, 3, 4)) AND (dbo.EVENTS.ev_StartDate > CONVERT(DATETIME, '2008-01-13 00:00:00', 102)) AND

I get this for my return
1526959
CC

CC is my CASENUMBERTYPES and the next column (228762) is CASENUMBERS
How can I get it to return it to where the CASENUMBERTYPES and CASENUMBERS show together in one column?

Hi,
I am trying to concat an int with an nvarchar in my select:
select distinct(id + name)
from load
where name not like '%test%'
but I am getting an error saying:
Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Syntax error converting the nvarchar value '灪愭楮敭' to a column of data type int.
My question is: how do you concat int and string in MS SQL Server. The equivalent in Oracle would be ||, I think.
Thanks for any help.

Hello,
I have a string let's say: "123".
I want to convert it to:
-- Start SqlServer
BEGIN
{CALL DBA.applsp_ChangeComments( 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', 'TRIGGER', 'nl', 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', '1' + CHAR(13)+ CHAR(10) +
'2' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) +
3' )}
END;
-- End SqlServer
-- Start Sybase
BEGIN
CALL DBA.applsp_ChangeComments( 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', 'TRIGGER', 'nl', 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', '1' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) +
'2' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) +
'3' );
END;
-- End Sybase
-- Start Oracle
BEGIN
ish.applsp_ChangeComments( 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', 'TRIGGER', 'nl', 'ArtPurchPriceUpdate', '1' || CHR(13) || CHR(10) ||
'2' || CHR(13) || CHR(10) ||
'3' );
END;
/
-- End Oracle
This works well for oracle and sybase, for sqlserver I can't concatenate in a parameter of a stored procedure. I really want to do this. To create a variable is a lot of extra programming. Is there anyone who knows how to cancat these strings within the stored procedure call?
thanks beforehand,

Can you explain me how to concat these strings?
Thanks for your help!
I want to concat strings such that if one string is null, it is treated as an empty string. For example 'abc' + NULL = 'abc'.
SQL Server has the CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL defaulted to ON, and it needs to be on in most cases when dealing with indices. (INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, etc.) However, when I am running a select, and one field has a null value, I still want to see the other fields in the resulting string.
I can do this in a function, but I need a view, and the view doesn't seem to let me save a command with 'SET' in it. (However, it does let me run the command! And it works!) It's just when I try to save it, I get a syntax error, so the view is unavailable to me as I want it.
The command that works, but won't save is:
PHP Code:
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL OFF
SELECT t1.field1+'-'+'t2.field2 AS viewField
FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN
table2 t2 ON t1.fk1=t2.pk2
The tables look like this:
Table1
PHP Code:
create table user.dbo.table1
(
pk1 int primary key,
fk1 int,
field1 varchar(32),
FOREIGN KEY fk1 REFERENCES table2 (pk2)
)
Table2
PHP Code:
create table user.dbo.table2
(
pk2 int primary key,
field2 varchar(32)
)
table1
PHP Code:
pk1 fk1 field1
1 1 'test1'
2 2 'test2'
3 1 'test3'
table2
PHP Code:
pk2 field2
1 NULL
2 'tab2 test'
I expect to see:
PHP Code:
ViewField
test1-
test2-tab2 test
test3-
I cant find a clear answer to the syntax of concat in for SQL 2005. Can anyone help.

Hi,
I have the following table called "tests" :
id WeekNbrnametest hours
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 2007/26John "testA"5
2 2007/26John "testB"6
3 2007/26David "testA"3
4 2007/28David "testC"2
5 2007/30Victor "testD"1
I want to write a query so that I have as a result one row per person and per week, as followed
WeekNbrname testhours
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2007/26John"testA, testB" 11
2007/26David"testA" 3
2007/28David"testC" 2
2007/30Victor"testD" 1
This means that I need to concatenate the values of the test column if in the same week and same person.
For now, I have only managed to do the job without the test concatenation the following way:
SELECT DISTINCT WeekNbr, name, SUM(hours) as [Total of hours]
FROM tests
GROUP BY WeekNbr, name
and I get the following:
WeekNbrnamehours
-------------------------------------------------------
2007/26John 11
2007/26David 3
2007/28David 2
2007/30Victor 1
Anyone could help me please?
Thanks so much in advance

Hi All,Here's a challenge.If there is a 'one word' answer to this, i.e. the name of a built inSQL Server function I can use, that would be great! However...I have a standard 1:m relationship, e.g. tblHeader and tblDetail.I want to create a view of records from 'tblHeader' and within thatview have a column (called e.g. DetailTypes) that provides a singlecomma separated varchar of values from a varchar field (called e.g.DetailType) that appears in related records in the 'tblDetail' table.(hope you understood that :)e.g. the contents of my 'tblDetail' table could be....Detail ID | Header ID | DetailType-----------------------------------1 | 1 | A2 | 1 | A3 | 1 | B4 | 2 | A5 | 2 | C6 | 3 | BTherefore, the view I want to create should return:Header ID | DetailTypes-------------------------------1 | 2A, 1B2 | 1A, 1C3 | 1Bi.e. the first row can be read as "Header 1 has 2 'A' detail recordsand 1 'B' detail record."I have created a view e.g. 'vqryHeaders' which calls a user definedfunction that takes the HeaderID and opens a cursor on another view,e.g. 'vqryDetailGrouped'. The other view groups the records intblDetail so that I can get a count of each DetailType for each HeaderID. The cursor then loops through the returned records concatenatingthe count and detail type into a comma separated string (as shownabove).However, when I run this across 20k records it is soooo sloooooww. Ihave indexes on the relationship fields and I am using realisticallysized varchars - neither made any difference in speed. It isdefinately the function that I wrote that slows it down as the view islightning fast when I remove my function call.I can supply source code if necessary, but I think that this is akind-of generic problem so I don't see the point - yet.I really hope you can help.Regards,Jezz

I'm new to SQL and I've been trying this for a while now.
I have let's say a loop of numbers from one to ten. It appears like this:
1
2
3
4
5
What I want to do is to have it appear on one column like this: 12345, the problem is I can't seem to figure out if I need to only have one variable or I'm missing something else, I figured you need to convert them into a string character but I'm still unable to do it.
Hi all. I have been going round and round for the past 2 days on this and would appreciate any help. In a view select statement, I need to concat 2 varchar fields with a text field. If I CONVERT the TEXT field to VARCHAR, only the first 30 characters of the field appear in the result set. If I convert the VARCHAR fields to TEXT, I get an error that I cannot CONCAT TEXT fields. I'm not sure what to do. Can someone please offer some assistance? Thanks in advance! Steve

Hi,
I am using UNIQUEIDENTIFIER column for my table. I do not insert data for it. I left it on database by setting to default NEWID(). Now in my application I need the value of UNIQUEIDENTIFIER column I just inserted. Is there any function or query to get this value like in case of IDENTITY column we can get the latest inserted value from select @@IDENTITY.
Thanks and regards,
Uday
Hey I was curious about the Uniqueidentifier is that better then using the @IDENTITY, apparently the Unique uses your computers mac address as a base???
View 4 Replies View Relatedas above, how can i use this datatype to generate a running number for my userID ? i tried with newid() but it returns a unique 32bit.
