I have a field that has the following data:

And, I'd like to parse this into rows separated by the "<li>"
Thanks!

View 3 Replies View RelatedCan you parse a SQL field? Let's say, FULLNAME field got a TEXT datatype with the following data: <firstname>Norm</firstname><lastname>bercasio</lastname><Color>blue</color>then using a select statement, parse the field to find the lastname then write it to another field called LASTNAME on the same table, same rowID. Can you send a select statement how it can be done? I am using SQL 2003 or 2005. thank you so much.
Anybody out there ever take a column containing names and parse it out to salutation, first name, middle initial/name, last name, suffix using Transact-SQL? I think I know how to do it using an array in a procedural language, but using SQL I'm drawing a blank.
Any ideas or help will be appreciated!

I'm trying to parse an ntext field that in my SQL View contains an invoice comment in order to be able to group on parts of the comment. I have two problems--one, the syntax to do this, and two, the best way to deal with the parts that I want.
The comment is like: "standard text ABCDE : $99.99" but can have multiple "ABCDE"s, e.g. "standard text ABCDE FGH IJKL $999.99" and I found some that had duplicates like "standard text standard text...".
I want to be able to report in SSRS 2005 by grouping the "ABCDE", "FGH", "IJKL" items.
Any ideas? Please be specific as I'm still learning.
Hi,
My table has 2 fields as 'count' and 'codes'. The 'codes' field has 'count' # of code values in each record. Size of each code is 4. For example, if my record is 2,'abcdefgh' then there are 2 codes and the values are 'abcd' and 'efgh'.
Currently I am using 'script component' to parse the field into multiple values. Since I have to read 1 million records and on an average, each record has 10 codes, it is taking hrs to load it.
Can it be done without 'script component' using some other transformations?
Thanks.
I have just started to look at SQL and have a theory question that I could apply to a test I want to run. I have some legacy data from a previous project and the database was not designed properly (in my opinion). They have ONE field to capture City and State information. All the data is formatted City, State .
Does SQL have commands that can look at data in a field, strip out info before and info after a comma and then write that to other fields?
So, I would like to normalize this to take the data in a field called CityState and parse it, trim it and then populate two new fields 1) City and 2) State.
Thanks for your help!

I have a report that shows all the jobs for a given resource. i.e. there are three jobs waiting to be run through the CNC Machine resource. Each job has more than one resource so I use a filter to get information for just that resource. i.e. just 3 lines for the CNC Machine. However on the report I need to put the resource_id that the job just came from and resource_id for where the job is going next. I still just want 1 line per job.

I have a SQL statement that fetches book information via a TITLE_ID which is fine if we only have one edition (hardback), but if there are two editions (hardback and paperback) it will return two rows like:
Title - Author - Edition
The Amazing Pixies - A. N. Author - Hdbk
The Amazing Pixies - A. N. Author - Pbk
Is there any way to concatenate the Edition field so the two lines become one? I have searched for ways to do this but have had no luck.
I'm tracking sales reps and the companies they represent. I have 2 tables. A header table that has the SalesRep (a key field) the name, phone, address, etc.A line file that will have the sales rep multiple times, each line having a vendor they represent.
SalesRepHeader table:
SalesRep name phone VendorList
Bob Bob_Smith 111-222-3333
John John_Young 123-456-56789
Mary Mary_Kerns 567-876-98765
[code]...
Whenever the SalesRepLine file is added to or updated I want the header file field VendorList to be updated with a concat of the vendors for this sales rep so the SalesRepHeader file would look like this.
SalesRep name phone VendorList
Bob Bob_Smith 111-222-3333 Samsung, Kenwood, JVC

I have a table in Access 2007 that has about 30 field names and I want to have a count of how many unique rows there are in each field. I want to have these results put into another table that will just have the field name and then the count of how many unique rows there are.
I have code in VBA that will loop through my SQL and change out the field name, but I can't seem to get the SQL right before I can start looping it. For just one field name this would be what I have to count the unique names...
So far I have this:
INSERT INTO newtable
COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT Raw_Table.FieldName, COUNT(Raw_Table.FieldName) AS CountOfFieldName
FROM Raw_Table
GROUP BY Raw_Table.FieldName);
And its not going too well.

I have a Log table which records items found on library shelves during a shelf scanning process. Each time a shelf is scanned all the items found are recorded in the log table and the ScanCount value is incremented (per shelf). This means that if I get the records with the highest available ScanCount value for each ShelfID, then I would have the most up to date picture of my library.
From this sample data I would like to return the latest rows (max scan count) for all shelves (which would be LogID: 7,8 (shelf A) 3,4 (Shelf B) 5,6 (Shelf C):
LogID ShelfID ScanCount ItemName
1 A 1 Dave
2 A 1 Alan
3 B 1 Mike
4 B 1 Andy
5 C 1 Mary
6 C 1 Mark
7 A 2 Sam
8 A 2 Will
I'm not sure how to do this - presumably with an inner select? Could someone help? thanks

just a beginners question:
I have the following row with 2 fields:
Field 1: Task A
Field 2:´ 1;2;3;4
The number of semicolon divided elements in Field 2 is variabel.
I would like to create new rows like:

Row 2 Field 1: A Field 2: 2
Row 3 Field 1: A Field 2: 3
Row 4 Field 1: A Field 2: 4
I think I should use a Foreach Loop.
But I don't exactly how to do it?

Hi.
I'm trying to write an SQL Query that will take a delimited field and return each item as a row.
Example
Take the AuthorizedRoles and TabID fields from the Tabs table
AuthorizedRoles TabID
0;11;__________1
0; 15 ;17;______6
-2;____________7
I would like to return a unique record for each Authorized Role
AuthorizedRole TabID
0____________1
11___________1
0____________6
15___________6
17___________6
-2___________7
Any ideas?

I am not sure if this is the right place, but here's my question:
with a field being varchar, can only the rows that are numeric be selected? For example-
ID Data1
1 don
2 jerry
3 3030
4 1234
5 susan
6 4321
Does SQL have an IsNumeric type function that can be used in the where clause?

Hi I haven't included DDL etc as this is theoretical at this time. I can rustle up an illustrative example if required.Following applies to disconnected environment. In general, most edits are broad (i.e. n fields affected) against a single record. However, there are certain circumstances where a single field will be edited against a deep (n) set of records. So business request:User needs to access and edit n records at a time (for arguments sake n is unlikely to be enourmous - say 50 max) but only editing one single field, and always the same field. The values for this edited field will differ for each record. Initially retrieving data for the app is no problem, nor is identifying those records that have been edited. What is the best means of updating the table? There are, to my mind, three ways of dealing with the latter senario - 1) Client calls the server n times editing a record at the time.2) Client creates a csv string and passes to sproc. Sproc parses string using some UDF split function (probably chucking into table variable) and updates using a single set set based operation.3) Client creates some flat file or other that is BULK inserted (or similar) by SQL Server. 3 - I think would only be an option if n was a very large number and or having the changes immediately reflected in the data is not priority.1 - would create a chatty app and presumably put the most load on the server. So I am left thinking 2 is (depending on circumstances) the best method. Is this fair? Are there any particular considerations gotchas I should be aware of? I know where to get hold of as many TSQL split functions as I could want so I'm not looking for code just opinions. OR - am I just plain wrong? Is there a better alternative or am I dismissing the other two methods prematurely? Thanks in advance
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have rows with a datetime column which spans many years. I am wondering is there a more simple way to select those rows where the datetime column is in a particular year. For example...
where datetime_column.year = '2007'
I know i can use the 'between' sql etc...but am wondering if theres something more straightforward im not aware of.
Thanks..
I cannot in the life of me understand what goes wrong here... In a webapplication (C#.NET) I traced an inability to retrieve existing records to SQL Server, where I cannot do the same either. The problem is that in the parameterized query, some fields can be null, and thus when the corresponding fields in the database record are null also, they should be selected. But this won't happen for some reason.
I wrote a test SQL statement that gives me the same bogus:
DECLARE @institution int, @collection int, @serialnr int, @subnr nvarchar(50)SET @institution = 1 SET @collection = 1SET @serialnr = 240 SET @subnr = NULLSELECT ID, Institution, Collection, SerialNumber, SubNumber, AccessionYear, Sagsnummer, DanekraeNr, TaxonIdentified, Stratigraphy, TypeStatus, PlacementRoom, PlacementCabinet, PlacementDrawer, UnitNotesFROM SpecimensWHERE (Institution = @institution) AND (Collection = @collection) AND (SerialNumber = @serialnr) AND (SubNumber = @subnr)
Now there is at least one row with corresponding fields values (1, 1, 240, null), but it won't be selected! What is wrong!?
I am needing to combine the Notes field where Number and date are the same...For example
for Number 0000000003 I need notes to Read ('CHK # 2452 FOR $122.49 REJECTED AS NSF ON 2/25/15') the note counter is different for each row, and is combination of special char, 0-Z and looks like the (!) depicts the start of a new Number.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTable](
[NUMBER] [varchar](10) NULL,
[HD_DATE_TIMEX] [datetime] NULL,
[TRANS_NO] [varchar](2) NULL,
[MESSAGE_COUNTER] [varchar](1) NULL,
[Code] .....
Has anyone seen this issue before? We are running a SQL CE 3.5 database on a windows desktop. A couple of our tables have ntext fields. When we do an insert the statement updates the value for all rows, not just the one that was added. I can easily repro this with some of the online samples too. Try the following:
SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection(_sConn);
conn.Open();
SqlCeCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE BlobTable(name nvarchar(128), blob ntext);";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO BlobTable(name, blob) VALUES (@name, @blob);";
SqlCeParameter paramName = cmd.Parameters.Add("name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128);
SqlCeParameter paramBlob = cmd.Parameters.Add("blob", SqlDbType.NText);
paramName.Value = "Name1";
paramBlob.Value = "Name1 Memo";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO BlobTable(name, blob) VALUES (@name, @blob);";
SqlCeParameter paramName = cmd.Parameters.Add("name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128);
SqlCeParameter paramBlob = cmd.Parameters.Add("blob", SqlDbType.NText);
paramName.Value = "Name2";
paramBlob.Value = "Name2 Memo";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
After the second execution the blob column in both rows will have the value 'Name2 Memo'.
This is obviously a huge problem for us and would appreciate it if someone can explain what is happening. Seems like a bug but would like to be certain before I go the support route.
I have the following query:
Select p.Id [SenderId], p.Username, up.PhotoId,
CASE
WHEN mr.ReadDate is null then 1 -- New message
ELSE 0 -- Message has been read
END AS NewMessage,
p.LastLoggedIn, p.LoggedIn
[Code] ....
The above query returns me all messages (inbox functionality) that have been sent to mr.ReceipientId, the issue I have is when I send another email to the recipient the readdate field will be null, and the other emails linked to the recipient which have also been sent via me will have a readdate date. This causes duplicate rows to appear due to the case statement, I'm trying to figure out if / how it is possible to only display the one row per conversation and set newmessage to 1 if there is an un-read message otherwise show 0 ?
So instead of showing this:
2Person102015-07-26 17:07:24.9370
2Person112015-07-26 17:07:24.9370
I'm trying to get it to look like this:
2Person112015-07-26 17:07:24.9370
Or if we have no new mail (read date is not null) then it will appear like this, and I can confirm when there is no new mail it works as expected.
2Person102015-07-26 17:07:24.9370
Does anyone know of a way to execute sql code from a dynamically builttext field?Before beginning, let me state that I know this db architecture isbuilt solely for frustration and I hope to make it better soon.Unfortunately, there is never a non-crucial time in which we can do anupgrade, so we are stuck for now.Point 1:There are multiple tables: students, courses, cross-referencestudent/courses, teachers, cross-reference teacher/courses, andothers.Point 2:Yearly archiving is done by appending a 2 digit year suffix to thetable and rebuilding the table structure for the current year. Thatis, each of the tables named above has an archive table for 1999,2000, 2001, etc. This leads to many tables and a big mess whenunioning them.Point 3:A history report is run by building a big query that unions each unionof tables (students, courses, etc) by year. This query has grown toobig for a varchar(8000) field. Actually, it's too big for 2 of them.Point 4:I don't want to write code to maintain any more varchar(8000) fieldsfor this query. It should be much more easily handled with atemporary table holding each bit of yearly archive data. I have builtthis and it works fine. I have also figured out how to pull the rowsfrom that table, concatenate them, and insert the resulting lump intoa text field in another table.Point 5:I haven't figured out how to grab the 5 or so records from that tableand execute them on their own. I figured I could grab them, put theminto a text field that's big enough to hold the whole query and thenselect and execute that text field. I've had no luck with that and Ihaven't had any luck finding any references that might help me withthis problem. I keep thinking of nesting execute() calls, but thatdoesn't work.I'm open to questions, potential solutions, hints about different wayto approach the problem, anything.Many thanks in advance,Rick Caborn
