Parse Strings To Get Selected Output
Nov 26, 2009
I have a field with following value :
USE TESTTABLE
GO
CREATE TABLE Example (
Description varchar(500))
GO
INSERT INTO [TESTTABLE].[dbo].[Example] ([Description])
VALUES ('hello This is a test query.
[Code] ....
I want to extract three things from the above data stored ina single field
1. LAST NAME (All characters before COMMA till a special character is met)
2. FIRST NAME (All characters AFTER COMMA till a special character is met)
2. ID (All numbers after the word ID. Ignore all special characters before and after the numbers)
The Output will be :
FIRST NAME LAST NAME ID
John Doe 123456
John Doe 123456
John Doe 123456
How can I use substrings to extract this data in SQL 2005

Please let me know if you come across any name strings this function cannot parse.
CREATE function FormatName(@NameString varchar(100), @NameFormat varchar(20))
returns varchar(100) as

--FormatName parses a NameString into its component parts and returns it in a requested format.

--@NameString is the raw value to be parsed.
--@NameFormat is a string that defines the output format. Each letter in the string represents
--a component of the name in the order that it is to be returned.

I am trying to build a query on a SQL2000 text field which contains XMLstring. The query is like "select requestnumber from history whererequestnumber is like '%re1%'". As you can see in the following samplerecords, the xml string has database structure and the requestnumber isa node of the XML. I wonder if it is possible to have SQL server parsethis field and allow me to do the query. If not, any suggestion wouldbe appreciated as to how to store XML data in SQL2000. I am not sureif I misused the SQL2000 XML feature correctly. So far I pass the rawquery result to ADO and manipulate it in XMLDOM.The table is to capture history of changes in any record in mydatabase. So I need to keep it simple so any record from any table canbe stored in here. The structure of the table is like this:sysObjectNumber(int, not null)recordKeyValues(char(30), not null)archiveTime(datetime, not null)history(text, null)A sample record would be like the following:sysObjectNumber recordKeyValues arvhiveTime History=============== =============== =========== =======1728725211 ABC 2005-03-25 8:09:56.700<history><partnumber>ABC</partnumber><type>2140461537</type><color>1</color><remain></remain><lastdatein></lastdatein><lastdateout></lastdateout><lastquantityin></lastquantityin><lastquantityout></lastquantityout><threshhold>null</threshhold><usedby>user1</usedby></history>1728725211 ABC 2005-03-28 11:01:14.407<history><partnumber>ABC</partnumber><type>2140461537</type><color>1</color><remain></remain><lastdatein></lastdatein><lastdateout></lastdateout><lastquantityin></lastquantityin><lastquantityout></lastquantityout><threshhold>4</threshhold><usedby>user2</usedby></history>1728725211 ABC 2005-03-28 11:46:12.723<history><partnumber>ABC</partnumber><type>2140461537</type><color>1</color><remain>4</remain><lastdatein></lastdatein><lastdateout></lastdateout><lastquantityin></lastquantityin><lastquantityout></lastquantityout><threshhold>4</threshhold><usedby>user1</usedby></history>1728725211 ABC 2005-03-28 11:46:35.273<history><partnumber>ABC</partnumber><type>2140461537</type><color>1</color><remain>4</remain><lastdatein></lastdatein><lastdateout></lastdateout><lastquantityin></lastquantityin><lastquantityout></lastquantityout><threshhold>4</threshhold><usedby>user4</usedby></history>

How to parse a string to equal length substrings in SQL
I am getting a long concatenated string from a query (CTVALUE1) and have to use the string in where clause by parsing every 6 characters..
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PTEMP](
[ID] [char](10) NULL,
[name] [char](10) NULL,
[CTVALUE1] [char](80) NULL
)
INSERT INTO PTEMP
VALUES('11','ABC','0000010T00010L0001000T010C0001')
select * from ptemp
after parsing I have to use these values in a where clause like this
IN('000001','0T0001','0L0001','000T01','0C0001')
Now ,the values can change I mean the string may give 5 values(6 character) today and 10 tomorrow..So the parsing should be dynamic.

I tried wrapping a DELETE FROM ...OUTPUT DELETED.* WHERE... inside of a select, crossed my fingers and got a syntax error. I thought maybe since the OUTPUT statement produces a rowset that it and it's DELETE could be selected from. Is such a thing possible in the same query or should I give up?

Using SSRS 2008 r2...I have a report with a single-value parameter and three multi-value parameters, Class1, Name2 and Name3. I'm hoping for an explanation to one thing that I'm seeing and information on a second thing.
Class1 and Name2 both have the (Select All) parameter selected but Class1 is displaying the concatenated parameter variable list whereas Name2 is showing Null. Why is that? If anything, how can I get Class1 to be similar to Name2 and show Null?But my desired wish is to have Class1, Name2 and Name3 display the text"All Selected" when the parameter (Select All) is chosen.

I have created a Transactional Replication Publication on my SQL 2012 server.When I log into another server on the domain running 2008R2 and try to subscribe to the 2012 Publication, I get the following error when clicking on "Add SQL Server Subscriber": "The selected Subscriber does not satisfy the minimum version compatibility level of the selected publication"
The 2012 DB is set as 2008 Compatibility Mode?Am I not able to Publish from 2012 to 2008?.I was using SSMS 2008 to connect to my 2012 Instance, thats why it didn't work...

I have a whole bunch of bit fields in an SQL data base, which makes it a little messy to report on.
I thought a nice idea would be to assigne a text string/null value to each bit field and concatenate all of them into a result.
This is the basic logic goes soemthing like this:
select case new_accountant = 1 then 'acct/' end +
case new_advisor = 1 then 'adv/' end +
case new_attorney = 1 then 'atty/' end as String
from new_database
The output would be
Null, acct/, adv/, atty, acct/adv/, acct/atty/... acct/adv/atty/
So far, nothing I have tried has worked.
Any ideas?

I am fairly new to SQL and am trying to write a function to parse the ip address into 4 sections. I have been searching through the forums to see if anyone has a posted example of parsing an ip address but could not find one.
I am wondering what would be the best method of doing this, or if anyone has an example.
Thank you

Hi All!
I have a table, tblstudents that has the fields strfirstname and strlastname. The table was imported from MS Acess where they were storing the first name and the lastname in the same field. Sucks doesn't it? Anyway, I need to write a script to extract the first name from the lastname and insert it into the first name field which is blank. So far I figure I can use select into, but need to find a way to tell sql server to take the fart of the field after the comma (the first name) and to delete the comma becuase I won't need it anymore.
Help!
Select '%,' into tblclients as strfirstname from tblclients
I know this won't work, but I want to show you all I'm at least trying!

This script parses the @@VERSION global variable into individual columns.
I developed it because I wanted to be able gather standard info on all versions.
I know there are functions for a lot of this, but only starting with SQL 2000.
It seems to work with all versions of SQL Server from 7.0 through 2005.
I haven't tested with 6.5 and before or 2008, because I don't have either available.
Please report any problems you see.

Is there a way to parse a string to int? this is my example code. quote_id is a string i want to be treated as an int here.
Code Snippet
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetNextQuoteID]
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
-- Insert statements for procedure here
SELECT MAX(quote_id)+1 as id From Quote
END
Thanks

I want to parse transaction log file.
Actually, i need to trace out changes in my database.[either by insertion/updation/deletion of data or adding/modifiying object.] within my application.
I study SQL Profile. But it is limited for its run and also resource hunger or extra burden on server in case of large size database and busy server.
So please guide me. Also suggest be its appropriate solution.
Thanks.

I have to do this for MANY rows but I don't want to use a cursor. Should I be using Dynamic SQL? If so how should I go about starting out.
Thank You

While using Aggregate Transformation to group one column,the rows of output sometimes larger than the rows returned by a T-SQL statement via SSMS.
For example,the output of the Aggregate Transformation may be 960216 ,but the
'Select Count(Orderid) From ... Group By ***' T-SQL Statement returns 96018*.
I'm sure the Group By of the Aggregate Transformation is right!
But ,when I set the "keyscale" property of the transformation,the results match!
In my opinion,the "keyscale" property will jsut affects the performance of the transformaiton,but not the result of the transformation.
Thanks for your advice.

Inside some TSQL programmable object (a SP/or a query in Management Studio)I have a parameter containing the name of a StoreProcedure+The required Argument for these SP. (for example it's between the brackets [])
EX1 : @SPToCall : [sp_ChooseTypeOfResult 'Water type']
EX2 : @SPToCall : [sp_ChooseTypeOfXMLResult 'TABLE type', 'NODE XML']
EX3 : @SPToCall : [sp_GetSomeResult]
I can't change thoses SP, (and i don't have a nice output param to cach, as i would need to change the SP Definition)All these SP 'return' a 'select' of 1 record the same datatype ie: NVARCHAR. Unfortunately there is no output param (it would have been so easy otherwise. So I am working on something like this but I 'can't find anything working
DECLARE @myFinalVarFilledWithCachedOutput
NVARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @SPToCall NVARCHAR(MAX) = N'sp_ChooseTypeOfXMLResult
''TABLE type'', ''NODE XML'';'
DECLARE @paramsDefintion = N'@CatchedOutput NVARCHAR(MAX) OUTPUT'
[code]...

Hi
I have Lookup task to determine if source data should be updated to or insert to the customer table. After Lookup task, the Error Output pipeline will redirect to insert new data to the table and the Output pipeline will update customer table. But these two tasks will be processing at the same time which causes stall on the process. Never end.....
The job is similiart to what Slow Changing Dimention does but it won't update the table at the same time.
What can I do to avoid such situation?
Thanks in advance,
JD

I am working on an OLAP modeled database.
I have a Lookup Transformation that matches the natural key of a dimension member and returns the dimension key for that member (surrogate key pipeline stuff).
I am using an OLE DB Command as the Error flow of the Lookup Transformation to insert an "Inferred Member" (new row) into a dimension table if the Lookup fails.
The OLE DB Command calls a stored procedure (dbo.InsertNewDimensionMember) that inserts the new member and returns the key of the new member (using scope_identity) as an output.
What is the syntax in the SQL Command line of the OLE DB Command Transformation to set the output of the stored procedure as an Output Column?
I know that I can 1) add a second Lookup with "Enable memory restriction" on (no caching) in the Success data flow after the OLE DB Command, 2) find the newly inserted member, and 3) Union both Lookup results together, but this is a large dimension table (several million rows) and searching for the newly inserted dimension member seems excessive, especially since I have the ID I want returned as output from the stored procedure that inserted it.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

I create a Execute SQL Task and Load a stored procedure into the "SQL Statement" box. This stored procedure has many 'go' words and many commented lines either with '--' mark or '/*' or '*/' mark.
When Parse Query, get Package Error "Deferred prepare could not be completed. Statements could not be prepared".
But I could run the same proc under the isql/w with no problem.
How could I deal with this error? Though it looks the execution of the package still run successful. The Parsing just create uncertainty.
thanks

Has anyone tried to parse a column containing sql syntax to obtain the actual column names used in the syntax field. So if the field had acctno =1001 then it would return acctno.

I am using MSSQL v8 (if that matters)
The data looks like the following
---------------------------
| PBP 20070420 2:26pm |
---------------------------
Now the data in this field is not uniform it can be blank, a sentence or have a different pre fix, instead of PBP, but the date will be YYYYMMDD when it is supplied.
I need to find all the dates that are within the last 10 months. How do I perform this task?

I am getting a pain in the butt error in DTS.
If I use and Execute SQL Task like this ...
------------------------------------
DECLARE @VAR
SET @VAR = ?
EXEC sp_Test @VAR
------------------------------------
and then click parse query I get an error "Syntax error or Access violation"
However; if I use it this way
------------------------------------
EXEC sp_Test ?
------------------------------------
it works.
Now here is the odd thing. If I put in a DECLARE statement and a global parameter "?" I get the syntax error.
But .... If I use a disconnected edit and use DECLARE and "?" then task will run properly. So the problem seems to be with the query parser.
The problem is I don't have the time to edit everything in a disconnected manner. Is there a way or update that will allow me to use DECLARE and "?". I have tried many hotfixes but none have worked.

This package will do very simple thing. It will parse the file and load it into table.
The format the file will be with fixed position:
From position 1 to 18, I need trim all the ending space and map it to a field of base table.
1. This is what I have done in the sql 2000 DTS package. How do I do the twist of data mapping on the SSIS?
I was using Active-x script in the 2000 DTS package.
EmployeeNumber = Trim(DTSSource(1))
EmployeeNumber = Left(EmployeeNumber, Len(EmployeeNumber) - 1)
2. At the Contrl Flow tab, I only have "Data Flow Task". I don't see the place I can do expression.
Thanks.
