I was wondering if anyone out there can help me as to how to limit the query results to show only the authors who have written more than one book?
SELECT a.au_lname, au_fname, COUNT(t.title_id)
FROM pubs..authors a
INNER JOIN pubs..titleauthor t ON (a.au_id=t.au_id)
GROUP BY a.au_lname, au_fname
Regards,
What is the reason everything here executes except the very last "INSERT INTO forums_UsersInRoles VALUES ((@@identity),11) "?
IF I change the order of the last two queries it is the other one (now last) that is not executed. Is there a limit to how many you can run at a time?
strSQL = " BEGIN INSERT INTO forums_Users (UserName, Password, Email) VALUES ('" & request.form("UserName") & "','" & Request("UserPassword") & "','" & Request("UserEmail") & "'); INSERT INTO forums_UserProfile (UserID) VALUES (@@identity) ;INSERT INTO forums_UsersInRoles VALUES ((@@identity),11) END;"

Hi,I need to limit results in the following query type:http://www.somewhere.com/php/sql-a....ql_order=&pos=1I found a reference that says I should be able to use LIMIT x[,y], butI don't know where/exactly how to add that to the string. Once I knowwhat it's supposed to look like, and can write something to generateit.If someone could post an example using the above and limiting theoutput to 100 records starting at position 1, that would be great.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,I ran a query that I thought would take an hour, but instead took 14hours to run. The consequence was it bogged down our data warehouseand the overnight build was adversely impacted.Is there a local setting I can set to limit the execution time myquery will take? I dont want to have a server setting and impact otherqueries, just the one I am running.I know there will be people asking about the 14 hour build and what isit doing and so forth. I will address that but I also look to thesesituations as a learning opportunity.Thanks in advance.Rob

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello SQL gurus!I am trying to write a query that will return a set of continguous rowsfrom a table, and limit the number of rows returned when a maximumtotal has been reached by adding a value in one of the columns.For example, the two columns below represent 2 columns in a table.a 2b 2c 2d 3e 4f 5g 5I want to start at, say "c", and return all the rows after it as longas the sum of the numbers in column 2 (starting at "c") don't exceed10. The result I'm after would be thusc 2d 3e 4....because 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 < 10Any ideas? Many thanks.

Hi,
Suppose i execute a query,
Select * from emp,
I get 100 rows of result, i want to write a sql query similar to the one available in MySql database where in i can specify the starting row and number of rows of records i want,
something like,
select * from emp LIMIT 10,20
I want all the records from the 10th row to the 20th row.
This would be helpful for me to do paging in the front end , where is i can navigate to the next previous buttons and fetch the corresponding records.
I want to do something like in google, previous next screens.
So I am trying to limit the number of rows fetched from a query.
somethin like,
select * from emp where startRowNum=10 and NoOfRecords = 20
so that i can get rows from 10 to 30.
Has any1 done this, plz let me know.
Cheers,
Prashant.
Yes, I do know what this means and why the error is thrown but this is not my question.
I have two servers that are both running Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 200 SP3. Below are the results from both servers using @@version
Sever 1 (BB)

These servers are identical or so it seems. I've got a real ugly query that uses views and a derived table to get results. The problem is the 256 limit message only comes up on one server and on the other (Genesis) the query runs fine. I get the error though it reads a 260 limit on a box with SP4 applied. I've also run the query on a box that is Windows 2003, sql2k and sp4 and the query runs but not on a similar server here. This is all very odd. Please note that the database structure, views, etc are all exactly the same as far as I know.
Any suggestions? There seems to be no pattern between versions of Windows and/or SP levels.
I was working on the SSRS Report Designer and was trying to copy and paste a huge SQL query from SQL Management Studio (like I always do) to the dataset window.
This method usually works, but for this extremely long SQL query with nested SELECTs and JOINs, it seems as though the Report Designer dataset query window limits the number of characters including carriage returns I can input in it.
When I paste my SQL query from SQL Management Studio, it seems to paste only three quarters of the query, and thereafter I am not able to manually key in anything else or even make a line feed in the dataset query window.
Is there a limit to the number of characters I can key in here ? If so, is there any workarounds or configurations I can try ?

I am not sure about the architecture of the Issue Tracker and hence not sure if it applies here. But I will post in any case and wait for users on this forums comments as well.
===========Earlier post==================
This question is regarding the architecture of TimeEntry.
In some programs it builds an arrayList for Master-detail type of relationship and when user is ready to save it by clicking 'submit' it build a variable with pipe delimited fields.
This is then passed to a sql query.
This to me does not seem to be an efficient manner. Because the max character is 1500 chars as parameter to SQL query.
I was wondering if instead I could store it as an XML and then use the XML to import in to SQL.
Any ideas is greatly appreciated, I am running in to problems where my variable construct does increase to more than 1500 chars. Any thoughts are much appreciated in this regards.

I am a newbie to SQL Server.
I have a problem, in filtering the records returned by a query.
I have a table which contains 1 million records, it has a user defined primary key which is of character type.
The problem is i need to filter the output of a select query on the table based on two parameters i send to that query.
The first parameter will be the starting row number and the second one is the ending row number.
I need a procedure to do this.
For Eg:
MyProc_GetRowsFromBigTable(startRowNo,endRowNo) should get me only the rows in the specified range.
Thanks in advance,

I want to turn on the query governor cost limit option for 20 minutes so that queries do not run longer than 20 minutes but I could not find any info as if this option would also not allow database backup job or other maintenance jobs to run more than 20 minutes. We have backups (Via RedGate) run over 3.5 hours and others like rebuild indexes and integrity checks even more than 3.5 hours....

Hi,I have successfully set and used a linked server to query ADSI.Since this question also concerns MSSQLServer, I've cross posted it --I hope this is not a breach of etiquette.I have successly created a view based on the linked server.Unfortunately, it only shows 1000 records, and there does not seem tobe any way to set the Page Size.I found the following:http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;243281Which seems to imply that the default can be set by changing registrykey: "HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWind owsDirectoryUI"I have set this key, and also set it for the user account under whichMSSQLServer runs. The value persists after a reboot. The Domain Grouppolicy sets the default to 15000.This behaviour is not restricted to the linked server. If I use thescript found here:http://hacks.oreilly.com/pub/h/1121 I can access morethan 1000 records, but only if I set the "Page Size" property. If Icomment it out to let the default hold, it is 1000.It must be settable SOMEWHERE or the whole linked server thing is ofvery limited use.At present, the best solution I've been able to come up with is to usethe above script modified to run as a DTS package. Yuck.TIA,BM
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query that returns the data about test cases. Each test case can have multiple bugs associated to it. I would like a query that only returns the test cases that have all their associated bugs status = closed.For instance here is a sample of my data

Hi there guys!
I was wondering if anyone know the number of rows you can import from an external source into MS SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition?
I have tried importing a whole table from another database with over a million records. But failed after 1.7 million row.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
When creating a database, SQL Server 6.5 seems to have a 2 gig limit. What I mean is that if the device chosen is over 2 gigs SQL Server displays the size of the device as anegative number. This prevents me from being able to expand the database when I need to. Can anyone tell me why this is so, and if there`s anyway around it??

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi There
I recently read up and found an msdn forum post that said the 4gb limit only applied to data files not log files.
However recently i had an error on a sql express database saying that the log file was full, the database log file was set to auto grow and there was plenty of space left.
So i am guessing the 4gb limit applies to any database file mdf or ldf, is this correct ?
Thanx

hi,i have a union statement that works like a charm:SELECT

ORDER BY
[SortDate] this statement selects all the records i want from both tables, and orders the entire new table by sort date.what i want to do is to add a limitation on the number of records. i have tried using both LIMIT and TOP commands, but i can't get it working. both of the below statements give me a syntax error saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'"first try:SELECT * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate] LIMIT 2second try:SELECT TOP 2 * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate]what am i doing wrong, and how do i achieve what i want?i am working with mssql server 2005 (express locally, and standard on my hosting service). thanks for your help!
Hi,
I have an application with a DAL that has an interface with SQL Server.
The application has 400 users that open the web forms.
My question is:
Is there a limit of the parallel connections that can be opened? Or the IIS is managing all the access to the DB? Should I worry about the performance Or it's normal behaviour for ASP.NET applications?
Thanks
hello everybody
I created user "MyUser " with rights
1. public for database "Orders"
2. select, update,delete, insert to table Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo
I have table Orders.dbo.PersonalInfoChangeLog
( it keeps information on any update on Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo including
HOST_NAME())
So I don't want anybody to see even structure of this table(Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo ).
if person loged as "Myuser" he can use
1. sp_help PersonalInfoChangeLog
2.Enterpise Manager to see properties of the table
How can limit rights to see structure without generating Application role ?
Thanks

someone suggested I use:
select top 20 * from t
where pkc not in (select top 10 pkc from t order by pkc) order by pkc
to simulate the limit function in mysql.
i want to replace the 10 in the inner select with a variable. When I do this:
select top 20 * from t
where pkc not in (select top @counter pkc from t order by pkc) order by pkc
it gives me in an error in sproc. Pls help!!
There is at present (as we accidently found) limitation of MSSQL to return per row maximally 8060 bytes. Message like this comes: "Cannot create a row of size 8279 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060".
My questions are :
- Is there any way how to pass it? If I split into more tables (as I have it now) and ask for result where these tables are connected over any ID the result is the same. If I use stored procedures it seems to be ok. Any other idea?
- Will be this ok in SQL server 2005?
hi everybody,
Beside top statement what is the best statement used to limit the display the data?
Thanks...
I have an application that uses a small SQL Server database.
What I need is to prevent the access of an amount of users to the database.
At the beginning I want to limit the access only for 2 users but I want to be able in the future to grant the access to more.
MySQL has a convenient syntax for paging data that looks like this:
SELECT * FROM MyTable LIMIT 10, 20
That would select 10 records, starting from record 20, so that it returns records 20 - 30. This is convenient way to page data, without returning anymore rows than than you need.
However, MS SQL doesn't appear to support that syntax. What is the equivalent sql code to select any N rows from an arbitrary starting point, without having to create a stored procedure?
Thanks in advance :)
