Hi folks. This is my first post around here.
So I want to query a select on a table. Is there a simpler way to match the where clause with all columns than referencing every single column in the where clause?
I know this is possible in DB2 and Oracle, but what about for SQL-server 2005
1) select X number of rows from table1 2) I need colums for each row of table1 in a new table 3) As such, Select (select * from X where x.id = @ID), a,b,c from table Y where y.Id = @ID And I dont want to use IfExists. Thanks DK
I have a column named 'RELATED' of type text in a table. I want to update the contents of this colums...........but still keep what is currently stored in it. Basically i want to add some text onto the end of the string it currently contains.
I’d like to get some data which includes month values bound to a data grid. The data is stored in a table like so:
Measure Month Value A June 10.00 A July 9.00 A Aug 11.00 B Jun 100.00 B Jul 98.00 B Aug 99.00 C Jun 0.75 C Jul 0.8 C Aug 0.91
I need to report the data like this: Measure Jun Jul August A 10 9 11 B 100 98 99 C 75% 80% 91%
This was simple in classic ASP. Just use two recordsets, create a new table cell for each month using the first recordset then use the second recordset for each row.
But is there a way to “Pivot� or rotate the data so I can use the DataGrid? It only seems possible if each month has its own column field in table. Each month add a new column.
I can restructure the database, if needed.
I thought about creating a Cube, but that seems to have its own limitations. For example what if I want to add a Column for Quarter and year totals? I don’t think it’s possible to show multiple planes like that in an query of a cube.
It seems that this might be resolved in the presentation layer or the data layer. Any Suggestions?
FROM Mdrfoit INNER JOIN DevTable ON Mdrfoit.MDRReportKey = DevTable.MDRReportKey INNER JOIN TextTable ON Mdrfoit.MDRReportKey = TextTable.MDRReportKey LEFT OUTER JOIN probLink ON Mdrfoit.MDRReportKey probLink.MDRReportKey
WHERE Mdrfoit.DateReceived BETWEEN '1/1/1995' AND '1/1/2007') AND AND (DevTable.BrandName LIKE '&PLV%')
My problom is that when i do this i get back 3 rows in my result set for every 1 result that i want So ill get like
So my result set is on average 3 time larger then its suppose to be, This is also causing my query time to be very very slow.
There are no Duplicate entries in the database where all of the fields are the same. I am confused on if this is a problom in my query. Any advice would be great

Hi all,I am a newbie to sql and I need your help.I want to update column (email) from one table to another validating theCustomerid column in both table. Update the email address in productiontable with the email address in temp table if the customerid is same in bothtables.What would be the query?Thanks,
I have this problem that I do not now how to solve it:
I have a report (matrix) where in the lines I have an order status, while in the columns I have the number of orders, the number of lines and the average time of delivery (calculated measure on as 2005 cube).
If put the subtotals the system will add the number of orders, the number of lines but instead of doing the average time of delivery, it will sum all the average of each order status.
Nr. Of Orders Nr. of Lines Average Delivery Time
Open Order 10 20 3.2
Closed Order 15 30 5
Total 25 50 8.2 (it should be, for example, 4.5)
Is there a way in which I can tell the system to not calculate the total for the third column?
If I use excel there is no problem because it will use the server formatting of AS2005 while Reporting Services is not doing it.
The joined view is named "dbo.viewExecView" and is like:
SELECT Bank_No, data_center FROM [ALPHASQL2000].ev_db.dbo.Bank
The new view that joins to the above view is like:
SELECT bank.BankID, evBank.data_center AS DataCenterID FROM dbo.Bank AS bank INNER JOIN dbo.viewExecView_Bank AS evBank ON bank.BankID = evBank.BankID WHERE (bank.InactiveDate IS NULL)
Note: The data_center column (an int) was recently added to the Bank table in the linked ev_db database and it shows up there. It also shows up in the view "dbo.viewExecView". It does not appear in the new view that joins to "dbo.viewExecView". And when I run the 'new' view, I get an Error Message: Invalid column name 'data_center'.
I've tried to simplify this as much as possible while still including the pertinent information. Any help very much appreciated, I am currently stumped.
I'm stuck on something here. Any help would be great. This is a relational database question.
I'm trying to inner join two columns of one table with one column of another. The follwoing code doesn't work, but I think you can see what I'm trying to do.
Procedure _Links_List AS CREATE TABLE #TempTable ( LinkId int, LinkCategory varchar(50), LinkStatus varchar(50), LinkName varchar(50) ) INSERT INTO #TempTable ( LinkId, LinkCategory, LinkStatus, LinkName ) SELECT LinkId, _SubCategories.SubCategoryName, _SubCategories.SubCategoryName, LinkName FROM _Links INNER JOIN _SubCategories ON _Links.CategoryId = _SubCategories.SubCategoryId INNER JOIN _SubCategories ON _Links.StatusId = _SubCategories.SubCategoryId SELECT LinkId, LinkCategory, LinkStatus, LinkName FROM #TempTable
Also, I know how to do this if I had seperate category tables for each category (LinkCategory, LinkStatus). For examlple:
Procedure _Links_List AS CREATE TABLE #TempTable ( LinkId int, LinkCategory varchar(50), LinkStatus varchar(50), LinkName varchar(50) ) INSERT INTO #TempTable ( LinkId, LinkCategory, LinkStatus, LinkName ) SELECT LinkId, _Links_Categories.CategoryName, _Links_StatusCategories.StatusName, LinkName FROM _Links INNER JOIN _Links_Categories ON _Links.CategoryId = _Links_Categories.CategoryId INNER JOIN _Links_StatusCategories ON _Links.StatusId = _Links_StatusCategories.StatustId SELECT LinkId, LinkCategory, LinkStatus, LinkName FROM #TempTable
I know the above works but I'm trying to figure out how to have just one category table and one subcategory table for all of my categories of all my tables.
So instead of having to create a new table for every category and all the procedures for them for all my tables, I want to be able to just use these two tables.
If anyone knows how I go about this, especially when a table uses two category columns, I Thank you.
Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read this.
NOOB question:
In dealing with, say, shirts -- I have a DB that serves as a template for several customers. Each customer may have different ranges of sizes (one may have S,M,L and the other might also have XL,XXL). So the CATALOG table is:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_Catalog]( [StlyeID] [int] ) ON [PRIMARY] with data: 1 2
the SIZES table (filled in by the customer with all the size ranges they carry) is:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_Sizes]( [SizeID] [int], [SizeName] [nchar](10) ) ON [PRIMARY] with data:
1,Small 2,Medium 3,Large 4,Xtra-Large
and the AVAILSIZES table would be:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[T_AvailSizes]( [StyleID] [int], [SizeID] [int] ) ON [PRIMARY]
1,1 1,2 1,3 2,1 2,3 2,4
Basically, then, we know that:
style 1 comes in Small, Medium, and Large style 2 xomes in Small, Large, and Xtra large
WE know that, but getting SQL to tell us that is a major PIA!!
Now,
SELECT t_Catalog.StyleId, t_AvailSizes.SizeID FROM t_Catalog INNER JOIN t_AvailSizes ON t_Catalog.StyleId = t_AvailSizes.StyleId
will give me a nice list of each item number with a separate row for each size number.
My questions are:
How do I get the size NAMES?
How would I get all of the sizes into a single row, so that there is a single row for each catalog StyleID (that's all I ever wanted to begin with)?
Is this the right way of doing this?
In reality I have about six columns that can contain multiple and variable items like this, and when trying to even think about resolving it all into a single record my brain tries desparately to crawl out my left ear.
Thanks for any help and information you can provide.
Okay I have a problem and I have no idea to do it. I need the SQL syntax to come up with this: the formatting is messed up though

What is the way we could implement a business logic from a Table bystoring it statemnnets in a colums and defining an execute sql toexecute it.Some legal requirements make it diffcult for us to createmodify stored procdures so Iwant to have a process where we create newrows in a table and execute it to execute business logic.All views are welcome.Havin g one table two tables different approaches to store ststementsand execute them....Case logic how to implement it?Flags in the tble colums in the tablesetcThanksAjay Garg

ok can someone tell me why i get two different answers for the same query. (looking for last day of month for a given date)
SELECT DATEADD(ms, - 3, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(m, 0, CAST('12/20/2006' AS datetime)) + 1, 0)) AS Expr1 FROM testsupplierSCNCR I am getting the result of 01/01/2007
"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."
I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.
INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)
There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.
Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).
Hey, i've written a query to search a database dependant on variables chosen by user etc etc. Opened up a new sqldatasource, entered the query shown below and went on to the test query page. Entered some test variables, everything works as it should do. Try to get it to show in a datagrid on a webpage - nothing. No data shows.

However, as you can see, the original select query is run twice and joined together.What I was hoping for is this to be done in the original query without the need to duplicate the original query.
I'm trying to find the command to open up an odbc conection inside sql2005 express. I only have ues of an odbc connector, we're conection to remedy. We will eventually be using stored procedures to extract the data we need from remedy and doing additional data crunching. I'm a foxpro programmer so once I get the correct syntax for making the odbc connector I shold be ok. Also I need a really good advanced book on sql2005. The type of book that would have my odbc answer. I've spent all morning trying to find this information and was unable to.
Thanks in advance

We have a issue with a MDS server that have been over us for a couple of days, the original error msg from SQL Server Engine is the one "The query processor could not produce a query plan" but the ones we get on the Excel-Addin are "Sequece contains no elements" or "The value cannot be null" T
• Using Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3393.0 (X64) for 6months on this server without issues
• Two weeks ago we started to have 2 errors: "Sequence Contains No Elements" | "The Value Cannot Be Null"
• We are using the last version of Excel Add-in
• We try to reinstall the MDS feature
• If I backup/restore MDS database to other server it works
• We updated to SQL 2012 SP2 + CU4 but the error persisted ...
Looking at the MDSTraceLog we are routed to the this msg

how do I get the variables in the cursor, set statement, to NOT update the temp table with the value of the variable ? I want it to pull a date, not the column name stored in the variable...
create table #temptable (columname varchar(150), columnheader varchar(150), earliestdate varchar(120), mostrecentdate varchar(120)) insert into #temptable SELECT ColumnName, headername, '', '' FROM eddsdbo.[ArtifactViewField] WHERE ItemListType = 'DateTime' AND ArtifactTypeID = 10 --column name declare @cname varchar(30)
-- The 3rd query uses an incorrect column name in a sub-query and succeeds but rows are incorrectly qualified. This is very DANGEROUS!!! -- The issue exists is in 2008 R2, 2012 and 2014 and is "By Design"
set nocount on go if object_id('tempdb.dbo.#t1') IS NOT NULL drop table #t1 if object_id('tempdb.dbo
[code]....
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....?
