I need a query that will RETRIEVE a value from a database if it is present, but if the data isn't present, then the data will be INSERTed into the table.
Either way, I need the row returned at the end of the query.
I can do SELECT queries, but I don't have a clue as to how to proceed with branching statements.
For example:
User runs a query for "Canada".
Canada exists in the database, so the database returns Canada along with its ID.
Next user runs a query for "Chile".
Chile isn't in the database so a record is created and the ID (an IDENTITY field) is returned.
How to include row values as columns in my select query. I have a table that stores comments for different sections in a web application. In the table below, I would like display each comment as a new column. I only want one row for each record_ID.
Existing table layout
table name - tblcomments Record_ID Comment_Section_ID Comment 1 5 Test 5 comment 1 7 Test 7 comment 2 5 New comment 2 7 Old comment 3 5 Stop 3 7 Go
Desired table layout table name - #tempComment Record_ID Comment_Section_5 Comment_Section_7 1 Test 5 comment Test 7 comment 2 New comment old comment 3 Stop Go
Once I figure out how to get the data in the layout above, I will need to join the table with my record table.
table name - tblRecord Record_ID Record_Type_ID Record_Status 1 23 Closed 2 56 Open 3 67 Open 4 09 Closed 5 43 In progress
I would like to be able to join the tables in the query below for the final output.
Select r.Record_ID, r.Record_Type_ID, r.Record_Status, c.Comment_Section_5, c.Comment_Section_7 from tblRecord r left outer join #tempComment c on r.record_ID = c.record_ID
How I can get the data in the desired #tempComment table layout mentioned above?
I am having a table which contain data in below form
id startvalue endvalue
1 12:00a 12:29a
2 12:30a 12:59a
3 1:00a 1:29a
4 1:00p 1:29p
5 2:00a 2:29a
Through SQL query I want to select the id column value for the row returned for the following query
select id from mytable where '1:24a' >= startvalue and '1:24a' <= endvalue
Idea is I will pass a literal value that lies between the startvalue (nvarchar column) and endvalue (nvarchar column) to fetch the id of the row returned, which should be 3 But when I run the query it returns me 2 rows for id 3 and 4.
I believe this is because I am trying to compare nvarchar columns with ">=" and "<=" operators.
Can anyone suggest how i can select the correct value or how to do this.
I have 3 paramaters@value1, @value2,@value3 being passed into a stored proc and each of these parameters can be blank. If one of them is blank and the rest of them have some valid values, then I should just exclude the column check for the value that is blank.
For e.g if all my parameters being passed are non- empty then I would do this select * from tblName where column1 like @value1 and column2 like @value2 and column3 like @value3
else if I have one of the parameter being passed as empty, I should ignore that parameter like if@value1 is empty then my sql should be
select * from tblName where column2 like @value2 and column3 like @value3
I don't want to do a dyanmic sql because of rights and security issue. I want it through a stored procedure only.
Also, all the three columns can have null values in the table. Please let me know what is the best possible way to do this. Thanks in advance !.
Hello all. I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to construct a SQL statement that will be run on a Dataset that I have. The trick is that there are many conditions that can apply. I'll describe my situation:
I have about 1700 records in a datatable titled "AISC_Shapes_Table" with 49 columns. What I would like to do is allow the user of my VB application to 'create' a custom query (i.e. advanced search). For now, I'll just discuss two columns; The Section Label titled "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" and the Weight column "W". The data appears in the following manner:
(AISC_Shapes_Table)
AISC_MANUAL_LABEL W W44x300 300 W42x200 200 (and so on) WT22x150 150 WT21x100 100
(and so on) MT12.5x12.4 12.4 MT12x10 10 (etc.)
I have a listbox which users can select MULTIPLE "Manual Labels" or shapes. They then select a property (W for weight, in this case) and a limitation (greater than a value, less than a value, or between two values). From all this, I create a custom Query string or filter to apply to my BindingSource.Filter method. However I have to use the % wildcard to deal with exceptions. If the user only wants W shapes, I use "...LIKE 'W%'" and "...NOT LIKE 'WT%" to be sure to select ONLY W shapes and no WT's. The problems arises, however, when the user wants multiple shapes in general. If I want to select all the "AISC_MANUAL_LABEL" values with W <= 40, I can't do it. An example of a statement I tried to use to select WT% Labels and MT% labels with weight (W)<=100 is:
Code SnippetSELECT AISC_MANUAL_LABEL, W FROM AISC_Shape_Table WHERE (W <= 100) AND ((AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'MT%') AND (AISC_MANUAL_LABEL LIKE 'WT%'))
It returns a NULL value to me, which i know is NOT because no such values exist. So, I further investigated and tried to use a subquery seeing if IN, ANY, or ALL would work, but to no avail. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? I know that if I can get an example of ONE of them to work, then I'll easily be able to apply it to all of my cases. Otherwise, am I just going about this the hard way or is it even possible? Please, ANY suggestions will help. Thank you in advance.
I have a table with dates and values and other columns. In a proc i need to get the result as Month and the values for all the months whether or not the data exists for the month.
The Similar table would be-
create table testing( DepDate datetime, val int) insert into testing values ('2014-01-10 00:00:00.000', 1) insert into testing values ('2014-05-19 00:00:00.000', 10) insert into testing values ('2014-08-15 00:00:00.000', 20) insert into testing values ('2014-11-20 00:00:00.000', 30)
Not sure if this is possible, but maybe. I have a table that contains a bunch of logs. I'm doing something like SELECT * FROM LOGS. The primary key in this table is LogID. I have another table that contains error messages. Each LogID could have multiple error messages associated with it. To get the error messages. When I perform my first select query listed above, I would like one of the columns to be populated with ALL the error messages for that particular LogID (SELECT * FROM ERRORS WHERE LogID = MyLogID). Any thoughts as to how I could accomplish such a daring feat?
I have a stored procedure that selects the unique Name of an item from one table.
SELECT DISTINCT ChainName from Chains
For each ChainName, there exists 0 or more StoreNames in the Stores. I want to return the result of this select as the second field in each row of the result set.
SELECT DISTINCT StoreName FROM Stores WHERE Stores.ChainName = ChainName
Each row of the result set returned by the stored procedure would contain:
ChainName, Array of StoreNames (or comma separated strings or whatever)
Hi,I have a query like this :SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ...The problem is that I don't want to return the results where x3 isNULL.Writing :SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ... AND x3 IS NOT NULLdoesn't work.The only solution I found is to write :SELECT * FROM((SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ...) AS R1)WHERE R1.x3 IS NOT NULLIs there a better solution? Can I use an EXISTS clause somewhere totest if x3 is null without having to have a 3rd SELECT statement?There's probably a very simple solution to do this, but I didn't findit.Thanks
Hi, not exactly too sure if this can be done but I have a need to run a query which will return a list of values from 1 column. Then I need to iterate this list to produce the resultset for return. This is implemented as a stored procedure
declare @OwnerIdent varchar(7) set @OwnerIdent='A12345B'
SELECT table1.val1 FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2 ON table1. Ident = table2.Ident WHERE table2.Ident = @OwnerIdent
'Now for each result of the above I need to run the below query
SELECT Clients.Name , Clients.Address1 , Clients.BPhone, Clients.email FROM Clients INNER JOIN Growers ON Clients.ClientKey = Growers.ClientKey WHERE Growers.PIN = @newpin)
Hi all. I need to create a select query in my program that will select from a list of values that are stored in a dataset. Let see this example: selectcmd = "Select * from mytable where myfile =" ??????? cmd = New SqlCommand(selectCmd, da.SelectCommand.Connection)
The values I need to put on ????? are stored in a dataset. For example if the dataset is populated with the following values: A B C D E
I would like to build a query like that: selectcmd = "Select * from mytable where myfile = ‘A’ or ‘B’ or ‘C’ or ‘D’ or ‘E’ “
I'm building a textbox with search functionality towards SQL 2000. The textbox is to include various search phrases, like "phrase1 phrase2 phrase3". Sort of like search engines where all words are considered. Do keep in mind that it's SQL2000 and not 2005. I've got all the strings I want to perform the search against in one column but various values in this column. The only thing I've come up with is to create "WHERE columnName LIKE @phrase1 OR columnName LIKE @phrase2" where I inject % as apropiate and chop up the string, but I'm hoping this is not the solution because it doesn't seem really clean (with 10 search words) and today I'm not having a 'bad-hack' day so I want it better. Whats is the best way of doing this? Cheers! /Eskil
I have a table wih multiple records and some has common values. For example, new child row need to inherit some of parent's data. Here is how I want to do: Select [parent data1], [parent data2] from [TABEL] where id = parent Insert INTO [TABLE] ([child id], [child data1], [child data2] ) VALUES [child id] [parent id] [parent id]........... I was thinking about using Selected and Inserting events but not sure how. Please help? Thanks,
I have a table which has 4 fields, patientid,testdate,testtype,results. I want to select the most recent testdate by a patient regardless of the results, or the testtype. I do however need those fields for my query. I tried the below, but I get more than 1 record if the person has had two different types of tests. For instance if patient 100 has the following 2 records I just want the most recent

Some of the values in the select statement are Null values and are getting skipped in the text file .My output looks like At A02 At1E AtE A03 At2E c100 c1230 I want them to allign but the third row has a null in the middle so it skips it and put the third value in the seconds place
I am running a select statement against a function that is giving me different values depending on how it is called. When I run it through sql server management studio, I get the proper results, the default value column has the parameters default value. When I call it through my web app, I get this in the default value column: *** ERROR OCCURRED level 2 (this is not a default value) ***
Why would the same sql statement get different results?

I have a problem when selecting distinct values from a table. I want to select those distinct numbers with a code that I want. To make it more clear i`ll show it on an example.I have the following table:
I am new to SQL and I am trouble-shooting a problem with a home-grown app someone else wrote using PERL. It has a web interface with names of boards. I found the program where i need to add the board names into and did that. The new board names show up in the drop-down list in the Web page for the app. Alerts are sent to the new board names and show up on the new boards. Users are granted access to the new boards and they can clear items off the new boards. Yet when i try to use a report function for the new boards i added, nothing is returned. I even ran a simple SQl select statement specifying the new board names and nothing is returned. The older board names, some of which i added myself, return values. I don't know what is going on. Any help is appreciated.
Hello,I need to select the minimum between the result of a function and anumber, but i can't find a smart way.

When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view.

I would like to write a select statement where I specify a list of values in the 'Select' line, and would like the output to have one line for each element.
I tried using Case with no success.
For example:
Select a.id, a.timestamp, ('rowA','rowB') as 'Tag' from tableOne a where a.id = '1'
So the 'where' line would produce one row, however, the overall statement would produce two.
ID TimeStamp Tag -------------------------------- 1 2012-12-12 rowA 1 2012-12-12 rowB
I'm trying to write a Stored Proc to Insert records into a table in SQL Server 2000. The fields in the records to be inserted are from another table and from Parameters. I can't seem to figure out the syntax for this.
I created a test in MS Access and it loooks like this:
INSERT INTO PatientTripRegionCountry_Temp ( CountryID, RegionID, Country, PatientTripID ) SELECT Country.CountryID, Country.RegionID, Country.Country, 2 AS PatientTripID FROM Country
This works great in Access but not in SQL Server. In SQL Server 2 = @PatientTripID
I am working on some data that is JOINing to another table. Not a big thing. In the child table, there are different values for a single ID.
