MS-SQL Server Equivalent To Oracle 9i?
Jul 20, 2005All,Oracle 9i provides a "USING" clause option for inner joins, thatallows me to say:SELECT * FROM TBL1 JOIN TBL2 USING KeyColumnassuming KeyColumn is in both TBL1 and TBL2. This is HIGHLY desirablefor our software make use of, but we also support SQL Server. Thereis no USING option available, andSELECT * FROM TBL1 JOIN TBL2 ON TBL1.KeyColumn = TBL2.KeyColumncauses an ambiguous column error on KeyColumn.Is there any equivalent to this Oracle functionality on SQL Server?KingGreg

Jan 15, 2001Is there an equivalent to Oracle's ROWNUM in SQL Server. ROWNUM, when added to a select statement as a column - the query would return an automatic counter, numbering each row returned.

Sep 2, 2004Hi,
Can any one tell me is there anything in SQL Server thats equivalent
to Oracle's ROWNUM.
Note that the Identity Property or TOP n will not solve my problem.
I want to asign a sequence no. to each row when its being fetched.
For example if in the emp table there are 2000 rows and I write
the following query in Oracle ,
SELECT rownum , empno, empname FROM emp Where rownum < =3
I get the result like this
Rownum----Empno--------------Empname
------------------------------------------
1-----------2345---------------ABCD
2-----------3334---------------EFGH
3-----------4484---------------IJKL
I know I can limit the output rows in SQL Server by using TOP n. But
I also want to generate a sequence no. The identity property of SQL Server
will not be usefull here because my actaul WHERE clause will be more
complex like WHERE resigndate = '01-jan-2004'
Thanks

ORACLE BEFORE INSERT EQUIVALENT IN SQL SERVER
Jul 20, 2005I am having trouble creating an INSTEAD OF trigger in SQL Server toreplicate a BEFORE UPDATE trigger from ORACLE.Here is a sample of the ORACLE BEFORE UPDATE trigger:CREATE TRIGGER myTRIGGER ON MYTABLEbegin:new.DT := SYSDATE;if :new.NM is NULL then:new.NM := USER;end if;end myTRIGGER;It seems as though I have to jump through hoops in SQL Server AND Icannot come up with correct results.Here is a snippet from SQL SERVER (this is what I figured I needed todo after reading various articles,questions):CREATE TRIGGER myTRIGGER on THETABLEINSTEAD OF UPDATEASSELECT * INTO #MYTABLE FROM INSERTEDUPDATE #MYTABLE SET DT = GETDATE()UPDATE #MYTABLE SET NM = USER WHERE NM IS NULLUPDATE THETABLESETDT = (SELECT DT FROM #MYTABLE),NM = (SELECT NM FROM #MYTABLE)WHERE THETABLE.ID = (SELECT ID FROM #MYTABLE)Can anyone please shed some light on this?

Equivalent Of Oracle's INSTR( With 4 Parameters) In SQL Server
Feb 2, 2005The syntax for Oracle's INSTR function is
instr (string1, string2, [start_position], [nth_appearance])
string1 is the string to search.
string2 is the substring to search for in string1.
start_position is the position in string1 where the search will start. This argument is optional. If omitted, it defaults to 1. The first position in the string is 1. If the start_position is negative, the function counts back start_position number of characters from the end of string1 and then searches towards the beginning of string1.
nth_appearance is the nth appearance of string2. This is optional. If omiited, it defaults to 1.
In SQL Server, we are having CHARINDEX and PATINDEX functions. But they will not accept the fourth paremeter (nth_appearance)
Do anybody know the solution for this ????

Feb 4, 2006Hi.I'm a casual sql user. I have found a situation where I need to convert anoracle statement to tsql, one I can just fire off in any sql tool against anms sql server database.I studied the exists statement and I think I understand it somewhat, however Iwas not sure how to get it quite right. If you have an idea and a minute ortwo I'd appreciate any insight or tutorial.insert into authorization (program, optiontitle, usergroup, authorizationid)select 'EVERYWHERE','NAVIGATOR',usergroup, authorizationseq.nextvalfrom allgroups where exists (select * from authorizationwhere authorization.USERGROUP = allgroups.USERGROUP andauthorization.optiontitle = 'READ' and authorization.program = 'EVERYWHERE')I believe that because in my data, three values of usergroup from allgroupsreturn true from the exists, that this is supposed to insert three rows intoauthorization.But I can't figure out what to do about the authorization.nextval.. I triedvarious max(authorization)+1etc but nothing seemed to compile/workthanksJeff Kish

Transact SQL :: Does Server Support MINUS Keyword
Mar 22, 2006I have two tables CarType & Cars. Table CarType has a column CarTypeId which is the primary key (int, identity). Table Cars includes a column CarTypeId (int) which is a foreign key into the CarType table.Now I am trying to build a list of all those CarTypeId entries (from the CarType table) for which there are no Cars (i.e. there is no corresponding entry in the Cars table).I read that there is an SQL "MINUS" keyword that you can use like this:
SELECT CarTypeId FROM CarTypeMINUSSELECT CarTypeId FROM Cars..So if CarType contains records with the keys {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and Cars contains records with the foreign keys {2, 4} (using set notation), your result should be the set {1, 3, 5}. (Note: I have tried alternate versions of this where I selected the DISTINCT CarTypeId entries from Cars, and where I sorted them; results same in both cases).I tried it in SQL Server 2005 Express. The result is just {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
Is the MINUS capability supported by SQL Server? I know that there are all sorts of different SQL dialects & implementations and that SQL has evolved & transmutated over the years; perhaps they opted to leave this out of SQL Server..
Here's a reference to the website where I initially found out about MINUS: [URL] ....

Trouble With: Linked Server To Oracle Using OraOLEDB.ORacle Provider
Jan 11, 2007Hi--
I am running SQL Server 2005 on Win2k3:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.2047.00
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.2047.00
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.086.1830.00 (srv03_sp1_rtm.050324-1447)

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.3790.1830
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42
Operating System 5.2.3790
I have the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider installed to the (C:oraclexe) directory.
I am having problems querying from linked oracle server. When i setup oracle as a linked server and purposely enter an incorrect password the query i run tells me i have an incorrect password. So it at least knows that. when i set the correct password and run a query I get this error:
(i replaced the real server name with "someServer".)
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer".
This is how I set up my Linked server:
Provider: "Oracle Provider for OLE DB"
Product Name: SomeServer
Data Source: SomeServer
Provider String: "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=SomeServer;User Id=MyLogin;Password=MyPassword"
The query I run is:
Select * from [Someserver].[schema or database]..[tbl_name]
Any help??? What am i missing?
