Is There A Way To Have List Of NOT Words With Containstable (especially Begining With NOT)?

Nov 6, 2007


This works when @searchString is used in containstable (provided searchString has value)...

set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchString + ' AND ' + @searchStringNoneOfWords

This does NOT work when @searchString is used in containstable...

set @searchStringNoneOfWords = 'not(Airplane)'
SET @searchString = @searchStringNoneOfWords

I understand it is because the syntax is AND NOT, but what if I have a list of words that I do not want included? How do I start out with a NOT using containstable? It is kind of like Google's advanced search except that if you enter a word in the "without words" section with the other fields blank it would return everything under the sun except for things found with those words.

TSQL - Use ORDER BY Statement Without Insertin The Field Name Into The SELECT Statement

Oct 29, 2007

Hi guys,
I have the query below (running okay):



Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01

The results are just as I need:


Field01 Field02

------------- ----------------------

192473 8461760

192474 22810



Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:



Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
INTO AuxiliaryTable
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable
The the results are:

Field02

----------------------

22810
8461760

And what I need is (without showing any other field):

Field02

----------------------

8461760
22810


Is there any good suggestion?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Aldo.

Backup Takes Longer At Month End Than Begining

Aug 1, 2007

sql 2005 stnd on a server of decent spec.

dbase in question is only about 5GB on a 450GB partition.

at the begining of the month I run:

BACKUP LOG [objectstore] TO DISK ='D:BackupsProdackup_objectstore.BAK'
WITH NOFORMAT , INIT , NAME = N'objectstore backup'

and then every 10 minutes (within working hours) for the rest of the month I
run:

BACKUP LOG [objectstore] TO DISK ='D:BackupsProdackup_objectstore.BAK'
WITH NOFORMAT , NOINIT , NAME = N'objectstore backup'.


The amount of data that gets backed up is the same through out the month and
the loading on the server as a whole also stays constant throughout the month
- NOTHING increases throughout the month that would affect this server in any
way, yet at the begining of the month the backup takes 10 seconds, and at the
end, it gets up to 5-6 minutes.


why?


THanks

Alternative To CASE In The Order By Statement?

Feb 15, 2008

 The query below at the bottom works, but when I try to add the line below (a third line/argument in the CASE statement) then I get an error. It is not possible to have a table name and a DESC (sort order) in the same CASE line/argument. Are there other ways to accomplish this, because I would like to sort with both "h.ObjectType" and "h.ObjectType DESC"?             WHEN @SortBy = 2 THEN h.ObjectType DESC      SELECT weight, ObjectText.ObjectId, ObjectText.ObjectType, ObjectText.Title, ObjectText.ShortText    FROM @hits h INNER JOIN ObjectText ON h.id = ObjectText.ObjectId AND h.ObjectType = ObjectText.ObjectType    WHERE ObjectText.LanguageCode = @LanguageCode    ORDER BY        CASE WHEN @SortBy = 0 THEN weight             WHEN @SortBy = 1 THEN h.ObjectType        END    DESCRegards, Sigurd

Writing Union Statement With 2 Order By's

Jun 20, 2008

Hi,

I'm trying to write a UNION statement with 2 selects and can't figure out for the life of me how to do it.


select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY dateJoined
UNION
select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY lastLogin

The union works fine without the order by's, but I really need the order by's in there and I don't understand why its so difficult to do. Surely there must be some other strategy?


Any help is much appreciated.. thanks!!

Can You Use Column Order Value In Select Statement

Nov 6, 2005

Is there a shortcut to spelling out column names when you are doing a select statement?

For instance could you write Select 1, 5, 6 from table where whatever...

I tried this but didn't get any results so if you can I must be using wrong syntax.

Thanks

Error Using Case Expression In Order By Statement

Feb 22, 2008

I have been trying to get the following Selects to work using a case expression in the order by section.

I know I can easily separate out the two statements but I want to do a select using the case statement below ;
however, I keep getting error 16 --"Order by items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a union.

If remove the case statement and put order by "internalID desc" I receive no errors. Moreover, when I take out the union statement and execute the two select statements with each including the case expression it runs as planned.

Can anyone tell what the problem is here? I have combed the web looking for an answer, but it seems that the statement is valid.


Thanks
J
declare @date
set @date = '2001'



select internalID from section_data_v3

select internalID from section_data_v4

Table 2 Order details
Order Details ID, Order ID, Order Stage

Table 3 Related Order details
Order ID(FK to Order ID), Related Order Details ID(FK to Order Details ID), Related Order ID( FK to Order ID)

2, 1234, 2015-02-02, Extension

Table 2 Order Details

2, 2, 1

I have to Select Order, Order Details and Order Status

Order Status is determined from Order Stage as follows:

If, at least one order detail line(from Order Details and Related Order details table) is approved, that Order status=Approved.

For the example, Order Status of Order ID=2, is Approved based on order status for order details lines 3(from table 2) and order details ID 1 and 2 (from table 3)

How to combined order stage from table 2 and table 3 and then compute order status.

Order By Clause In DECLARE CURSOR Select Statement Won't Compile

The stored procedure, below, results in this error when I try to compile...


Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure InsertImportedReportData, Line 69
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'.

However the select statement itself runs perfectly well as a query, no errors.

The T-SQL manual says you can't use the keywords COMPUTE, COMPUTE BY, FOR BROWSE, and INTO in a cursor select statement, but nothing about plain old ORDER BYs.

What gives with this?

Using The ORDER BY Clause When The Ordered Column Is Not Needed In The SELECT Statement

May 15, 2008

Greetings,

I have a C# application that calls a stored procedure to query the database (MSSQL 2005). I only have one field/column returned from the query but I need that column ordered.

How do I use the ORDER BY clause without returning the index column which does the sorting? The first example is NOT what I want. I want something that works like the second example which only returns the 'Name' column.


ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[MyProcedure]



AS

BEGIN

SELECT DISTINCT A.Name, A.index

FROM
...
...
ORDER BY A.[Index], A.Name ASC

END



ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[MyProcedure]



AS

BEGIN

SELECT DISTINCT A.Name
FROM
...
...
ORDER BY A.[Index]

END

Thanks

Using Case Statement To Determine Order By Field And Direction (asc Or Desc) When Using Row_number

Aug 21, 2007

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
,col2
,col3
,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
else col3 desc
end
end
from myTable
)



Please let me know what i can do with minimal code repetition and achive my goal of dynamically sorting column and direction. I do not want to use dynamic SQL under any circumstance.

Analysis :: Order Of Rows In Tabular Table Not In Same Order Data Was Retrieved?

May 19, 2015

I never paid much attention to this before but I noticed this today in a new table I was creating.

For tables defined in the tabular model the table properties have something like SELECT Blah FROM TableName ORDER BY Blah Then in the tabular model the table's data is in the same order it was ordered by in the data source for the table.

I have a date table I setup and I noticed it is NOT respecting the sort order.

I have it sorted by DateID which sorts with the oldest date first and newest date as last row.However, the table that is imported and stored in the data model is not in that order.

I can of course manually sort the rows in BIDS/DataTools, but I find this discrepancy odd.

Would this have negative impacts on the EARLIER function for example if the data rows are not in the order specified?

Do I need to create a function for that? Also is it possible to have m y query as a table variable?

So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?

I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.

SelectCommand="SELECT [Order_ID], [Customer_Id], [Date_ordered], [status] FROM [tbl_order]WHERE (([Date_ordered] >= @Date_ordered OR @Date_ordered IS NULL) AND ([Date_ordered] <= @Date_ordered2 OR @Date_ordered2 IS NULL OR (Order_ID=ISNULL(@OrderID_ID,Order_ID) OR @Order_ID IS NULL))">

Default Sort Order When Order By Column Value Are All The Same

Apr 14, 2008

Hi,
We got a problem.
supposing we have a table like this:

CREATE TABLE a (
aId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
aName string2 NOT NULL
)
go
ALTER TABLE a ADD
CONSTRAINT PK_a PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (aId)
go


insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
...
... (20 times)

select top 5 * from a order by aName
Result is:
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde

select top 10 * from a order by aName
Result is:
11Bank of abcde
10Bank of abcde
9Bank of abcde
8Bank of abcde
7Bank of abcde
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde

According to this result, user see the first 5 records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 in page 1, but when he tries to view page 2, he still see the records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. This is not correct for users. :eek:

Of course we can add order by aid also, but there are tons of sqls like this, we can't update our application in one shot.

So I ask for your advice here, is there any settings can tell the db use default sort order when the order by column value are the same? Or is there any other solution to resolve this problem in one shot?
