I am trying to parse a query column that has both a city name and state code within it. What I would like to do is parse the queryed column and seperate them by the ",". Can someone please help?
example:
Select Name, Address1, Left(Address2, ",") as City, Right(Address2, ",") as State

How to accomplish a join when the join condition has to be parsed from another column? I need a list of all the exchange part numbers with exchange part pricing, but need the description from the original part number. Example:
Part Number Description Cost
123-456-1 A ROUND THINGIE 5
150-387-1 EXCH - 123-456-1 2
Needed record is
Part number ExchangePart Description Cost
123-456-1 150-387-1 A ROUND THINGIE 2
Something like
SELECT PART# as exchangepart,
case
when substring(descr, 1,4) = 'EXC-' then trim(substring(DESCR, 5, 25))
when substring(descr, 1,3) = 'EXC-' then trim(substring(DESCR, 4, 26))
when substring(descr, 1,6) = 'EXC - ' then trim(substring(DESCR, 7, 23))
when substring(descr, 1,5) = 'EXCH-' then trim(substring(DESCR,6,24))

Hello All,
I have come across this issue with the Flat File Source when the delimiter is set to a comma.
"""KAILUA KONA,HI""","CA",
In the data snippet above and with the setting of using a comma as a column delimiter
and a " as the text qualifer.
the data will be parsed in this fashion:
"""KAILUA as a column:
HI""" as a column
CA as column
when it should be
"KAILUA,HI" as a column
CA as column.
Is there a way to let the Flat File Source to let it know not to parse the data in multiple quotes ?
Thank you

I'm new to SSRS (We are using SQL 2014) and have been asked to create a report from SharePoint list data. One of the columns in my list contains XML data. I need to pull three different fields from this XML. I see lots on using xml as a datasource but I'm using a SharePoint list as my datasource. Before I get too far down the wrong road I thought I'd ask here if there was a built in means of parsing XML or if I should look at using the Text Function under Common Functions in the Epression builder?
View 8 Replies View RelatedFirst, I'm a complete noob to anything other than basic SQL queries so any help is greatly appreciated.
I have a project I'm working on that involves analyzing syslog messages from our web filter. It's been pretty simple in getting the data into a SQL table, but now I'm fumbling around with setting up the data analysis portion. The data I need to analyze is space delimited in a single column in the table. I can query the data, but I don't know how to parse the results and insert each field into it's own column in another table.
Would one of the great SQL gurus around here help a brotha out?
Thanks.

I want to take this XML and put it into a table with CustomerId and MatchingSetId. With this SQL, each MatchingSetId gets assigned to each CustomerId instead of retaining the relationships in the XML.
declare @myXML XML = '<CustomerMatchings>
<CustomerRecord CustomerId="10600">
<MatchingSetId>11</MatchingSetId>
<MatchingSetId>13</MatchingSetId>
<MatchingSetId>18</MatchingSetId>

View 5 Replies View Related-- The 3rd query uses an incorrect column name in a sub-query and succeeds but rows are incorrectly qualified. This is very DANGEROUS!!!

This succeeds when the invalid column name is a valid column name in the outer query. So in this situation the sub-query would fail when run by itself but succeed with an incorrectly applied filter when run as a sub-query. The danger here is that if a SQL Server user runs DML in a production database with such a sub-query which then the results are likely not the expected results with potentially unintended actions applied against the data. how many SQL Server users have had incorrectly applied DML or incorrect query results and don't even know it....?

I need to name make the name of a column the same as the name of a table from the result of a sql query.. here is the assignment question below..I can't figure out how to get the name of the table to be inputed as the column name..
Write a script that uses dynamic SQL to return a single column that represents the number of rows in the first table in the current database. The script should automatically choose the table that appears first alphabetically, and it should exclude tables named dtproperties and sysdiagrams. [highlight=#ffff11]Name the column CountOfTable, where Table is the chosen table name.[/highlight]
Hint: Use the sys.tables catalog view.
I can figure out the rest. and actually have alredy done it, but i cannot figure out how to do the part that is highlighted above. I looked at lots of things on google to figure it out but no luck..Can some just give me some directlon or an example..
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).
To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value
----------- -----
colB 123
colA XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly...
Below is what I have:
CREATE TABLE myTable (colA VARCHAR(3), colB VARCHAR(3), colC VARCHAR(3))
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('ABC', '123', '0X')
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('XYZ', '789', 'X0')
;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT CAST(PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC) AS SMALLINT) pos, STUFF(colC, 1, PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC), '') colC

I am trying to process an XML document that contains the attribute 'from_x'. However an openxml query can't seem to find any column with a '_x' suffix. For example if I were to execute the following fragment:
declare @hDoc int, @Message varchar(200)
select @Message = '<BACK_FM from_x="12"></BACK_FM>'
exec sp_xml_preparedocument @hDoc OUTPUT, @Message
select from_x from openxml(@hDoc, 'BACK_FM',1) with (from_x int)
I get back a null value from the openxml query. Attribute names 'fromx' and 'from_y' work ok but nothing I have tried with a trailing '_x' will work.
Does anyone know if this is a known SQL Server bug? Is it a bug at all or something about XML that I don't know about?
Thanks,

I need to figure out how to parse a comma separated value.
Lets say I have a variable equal to a comma separated list.
SET @Variable = '045, 032, 025, 653'
I need to create a dynamic sql string to look like:
SET @Variable = ''' + '045' + ''' + ',' + ''' + '032' + ''' + ',' etc...
Can someone teach me a optimized query to do this?
Thanks

I'm having a bit of a trouble explaining what I'm trying to do here.
I have 3 "source" tables and a "connecting" table that I'm going to use
tblContacts - with contactID, ContactName etc
tblGroups - with GroupID, GroupName
tblSubGroups - with SubGroupID, GroupID and SubGroupName (groupID is the ID for the parent Group from tblGroups)
They are related in a table called
tblContactsGroupConnection - with ContactID, GroupID and SubGroupID
One contact can be related to many subgroups.
What I want is a list of all contacts, with their IDs, names and what groups they are related to:
ContactID, ContactName, [SubGroupName1, SubGroupName2, SubGroupName3]
ContactID, ContactName, [SubGroupName1, SubGroupName3]
ContactID, ContactName, [SubGroupName3]
I'm sure there's a simple solution to this, but I can't find it. Any help appreciated. :)

Can 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.
Hi All,
I'm using a SQL selection to fill a DataGrid. One of the fields I have is called diagnosis. This field in the database can contain multiple diagnosis. But I use a set of characters to divide each diagnosis.

My problem is this is how it looks in my Data Grid. Can someone tell me how to parse out each diagnosis.
Thanks

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 have a varchar field that contains answers to questions separated by commas. Say there are 4 questions for each user. Here is an example of what the table would look like:
User Answer
1 Good,Fair,Good,Bad
2 Bad,Good,Good,Good
3 Fair,Good,Bad,Fair
I need to write a stored procedure to report off of that separates the Answer field into 4 different columns. How can this be achieved? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone
Heres what it looks like:
I have a large file of over 40k email records. The emails are all mixed up and come in various formats but i noticed that most of them are in this format:
firstname.lastname@email.com
firstname.middlename.lastname@email.com
For all those emails with the period (.) in between, the (.) actually separates an individuals first and last name.
My task is this, to separate all the emails that are in this format into first and last name fields. I'm stimped folks and I'll really appreciate any pointers or ideas on how to go about solving this task.
Thanks
