I have a table where different types of values are stored in one field, but I need to seperate them into different fields based on a value in another field.
For (hypothetical) example:
There is an existing table with following info in three columns:
userid record recordtag
1 joe 1
1 j 2
1 jr 3
2 bob 1
2 a 2
2 sr 3
where recordtag indicates (1 for first name, 2 for middle initial, 3 for suffix)
I need to query these records for a report so it the output is:
userID firstname middleinitial suffix
1 joe j jr
2 bob a sr
What's the most efficient approach to create a query that will give me desired results? I have managed to create a very complex query that derives tables for each column I want to create and queries off of that derived table for the 'record' value based on the 'recordtag' values for a given 'userid'. The query is extremely slow, so I know there's some better way out there to get the results I want. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

how to separate names but i cannot make work in this case. The name field might contain anywhere from only one name with no delimeters to five names with four delimeters. I want to replace the delimeter with a space and reorder the names.
Original data format: Name2/Name1/Name3/Name4/Name5.
Desired data format: Name1 Name2 Name3 Name4 Name5.

I'll try to simplify the problem as much as I can.
There's survey. It has different types of question answer pairs, but the problem is in Multiple Choices, Multiple Answers questions, where user can choose, for example 3 checkboxes from 5 at the web form, for the question.
I am emphasizing three tables:
tbl_questions
IDquestion (primary)
question (textual question)
tbl_answers
IDanswer (primary)
IDquestion (foreign,to table tbl_questions)
answer (textual answer)
tbl_results
IDresult (primary)
IDquestion (foreign, to tbl_question)
result (string based on CSV, may contain few IDanswers, because visitor may choose few checkboxes, for example it can be "4,6,7")
Inside those tables are data (I'll put here just two questions):
Example:
tbl_questions
IDquestion_question
1_________Which OS do you use?
2_________Which databases do you use?
tbl_answers
IDanswer_IDquestion_answer
1________1_________Windows
2________1_________Linux
3________1_________Mac OS
4________2_________SQL Server
5________2_________MS Access
6________2_________MySQL
7________2_________Oracle
8________2_________Other
9________2_________No, I do not use databases
tbl_results
IDresult_IDquestion_results
........
23_______1________1,2
24_______2________4,6,7
........
Is there a possibility to make query, using columns, but also the data inside the CSV format in results (varchar or char) column?
Result of the query would be:
IDquestion_IDanswer_answer
1_________1________Windows
1_________1________Linux
2_________4________SQL Server
2_________6________MySQL
2_________7________Oracle
Further queries based on this query should be able to make statistics (GROUP BY).

I have 2 independent queries which run just fine, the 2nd one returns a dollar value. I need this dollar value as a column in my first query so that I can return it in a reporting program. The 2 queries are pasted below.
SELECT dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.InvoiceNumber AS "InvoiceNumber",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.TransactionType AS "TransactionType",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.Date AS "Date",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.DueDate AS "DueDate",
dbo.vw_tphillip_Customer_Inv.CustomerName AS "CustomerName",

Hey all,
i have a question for all the SQL Gurus out there. I have tried to think of a way around, it, but i cannot work it out.
I have a set of data: Samples Below:
Item Warehouse FOR1 FOR2 FOR3 FOR4 FOR5 FOR6 FOR7 FOR8 FOR9 FOR10 FOR11 FOR12 FOR13 FOR14
01-0001 010 329 329 335 343 317 331 328 331 31
I have written a Query to Pivot this data like below:
SELECT WAREHOUSE,ITEM, QTY
FROM
(SELECT ITEM,WAREHOUSE,FOR1,FOR2,for3,for4,for5,for6,for7,for8,for9,for10,
for11,for12,for13,for14,for15,for16,for17,for18,for19,for20,for21,
for22,for23,for24 FROM mvxreport.tbldmsForecasttoMovex) p
UNPIVOT
(QTY FOR tbldmsForecasttoMovex IN (FOR1,FOR2,for3,for4,for5,for6,for7,
for8,for9,for10,for11,for12,for13,for14,for15,for16,for17,for18,for19,
for20,for21,for22,for23,for24))AS unpvt
Warehouse Item Qty
010 01-0001 329
010 01-0001 329

010 01-0001 343
010 01-0001 333
010 01-0001 322
I would like to add some more code to the query, so for each FOR% column,
i can put a numeric value in it. The value will be the numbers ,1 - 24 . One for each line as this represents Months Forward.
Example:
Warehouse Item Qty Month
010 01-0001 329 1
010 01-0001 329 2
010 01-0001 335 3

Hi,
I need to create a derived column for each row in a SQL dataset.
This derived column needs to be created by passing across two values from the SQL dataset and querying an Oracle table based on those parameters. If the Oracle query returns a record(s) then the derived column should be set to 1 otherwise leave it as default (0).
One of these parameters needs to check a date range so I can't use a Lookup Transformation...any ideas how I can accomplish this ?
Thanks

I have a set of data spread across a number of tables regarding stock market data. An example of this follows:
Market Capitalization...
Date CompA CompB
01/01/11 100 5
02/01/11 102 4
Share Price....
Date CompA CompB
01/01/11 100 100
02/01/11 101 99
Event Data...
Date Company
01/01/11 CompA
02/01/11 CompB
Pretty simply, I need a way to retrieve the market capitalisation and share price data based on the event data. So for instance I say 'oh, there is an event on the 01/01/11 involving company A, the market capitalisation on this day was 100, then for the next event it was 4 for company B.
I can also transpose the data so that the company name is in the rows and the dates in the columns for the market cap and share price tables, but this leads to the issue that when I try and get the data, I don't know how to query the correct company for that date.
For instance:
SELECT Event.Date, Event.Company
FROM Event
how do I now say.....
SELECT MarketCapitalisation.Column
WHERE Column = Event.Company
AND MarketCapitalisation.Date = Event.Date.
I have played around with a few basic joins, but I am having issue with the principle of that second to last line of SQL (so only getting the correct column).
I still have a copy of the data in excel so can flip things around as needed, but that would only mean that I would have the issue of WHERE Column = Event.Date instead of Event.Company.

We have a table with a couple of computed columns. The value of the computed column represents a foreign key reference into another table. We're seeing a major performance problem doing a query joining between the two tables with one of the columns, but not the other. In other words, this kind of query is very fast:
select * from TheTable A, FKeyTable B
where A.ComputedColumn1 = B.KeyColumn
but this one sends the CPU usage of SQL Server to 99% for a very long time:
select * from TheTable A, FKeyTable B
where A.ComputedColumn2 = B.KeyColumn
The main difference we can see that the computed column that causes problems is based on a UDF, and the other one isn't (but again, both are computed). When I look at the execution plan, the slow query shows a Nested Loop (Inner Join) with a "No Join Predicate" warning, with the estimated # of rows being 70 million (which correponds to the product of 1016 rows in TheTable and 69K rows in FKeyTable). The fast query doesn't have that warning, and shows 1016 rows (the # of rows in TheTable).
Does anyone know why the usage of a UDF would induce this horribly inefficient join behavior? Anything we can do to fix it?
This is SQL Server 2005 SP2, btw.

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.
Regards,
Steve G.

MR1 -Model Code,
4.0 - Percentage,
true - isAbs,
2.0 - AppliedValue --> This is Actual amount applied as tax.
USD - Currency
For the example provide , the totalTaxValue would be 2.0 + 1.5+0.0+0.19 = 3.69

I'm working on a sales commission report that will show commissions for up to 5 sales reps for each invoice. The invoice detail table contains separate columns for the commission rates payable to each rep, but for some reason the sale srep IDs are combined into one column. The salesrep column may contain null, a single sales rep id, or up to five slaes rep IDs separated by the '~' character.
So I'd like to parse the rep IDs from a single column (salesreplist) in my invoice detail table (below) to multiple columns (RepID1, RepID2, RepID3, RepID4,RepID5) in a temp table so I can more easily calculate the commission amounts for each invoice and sales rep.
Here is my table:
CREATE TABLE invcdtl(
invoicenum int,
salesreplist [text] NULL,
reprate1 int NULL,
reprate2 int NULL,
reprate3 int NULL,
reprate4 int NULL,
reprate5 int NULL,
)
Here is some sample data:
1 A 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0
3 I~~~~ 15 0 0 0 0
4 A~B 5 5 0 0 0
5 I~F~T~K~G 5 5 2 2 2
6 A~B
As you can see, some records have trailing delimiters but some don't. This may be a result of the application's behavior when multiple reps are entered then removed from an invoice. One thing for sure is that when there are multiple reps, the IDs are always separated by '~'
Can anyone suggest a solution?

Hi!
I am designing a dimension table which will include a short name column based on the (full) name column. For example say Product dimension where I will have ProductName and ProductShortName. ProductShortName will be the first 6 characters of ProductName. I could populate ProductShortName using:
Substring in the select when I select from the original system, e.g. SUBSTR(PRODUCT_NAME, 1, 6) AS ProductShortName
Create a derived column in the SSIS flow which does the same thing
Create the ProductShortName column as a computed column which uses substring on ProductName
Create a trigger that populates ProductShortName based on ProductName when a row is inserted or updated
Create a named calculation in the table in the Analysis Services project's data source view
Create a named query in the Analysis Services project's data source view
I usually use 1, and 5 or 6 would only be used if I only will create reports against the cubes. 3 seems easiest to maintain, so I am thinking about using that one, but maybe it is slow for the data flow as I imagine it must be something like using 4, or when is the column "created" at runtime, i.e. when the table is queried?
Which approach(es) do or would you use? Pros and cons?
Thanks!

I am looking for the best way in SSIS to do the following. I have an SQL table that for each row in the table I want to take an element from the table do a lookup in a Teredata Table, return information from the teredata source. Use that returned data to do some calculations and create a derived column from my calculations and place the data into the same SQL table that I am parsing through.
Ideas?

I create a Execute SQL Task and Load a stored procedure into the "SQL Statement" box. This stored procedure has many 'go' words and many commented lines either with '--' mark or '/*' or '*/' mark.
When Parse Query, get Package Error "Deferred prepare could not be completed. Statements could not be prepared".
But I could run the same proc under the isql/w with no problem.
How could I deal with this error? Though it looks the execution of the package still run successful. The Parsing just create uncertainty.

I am getting a pain in the butt error in DTS.
If I use and Execute SQL Task like this ...
------------------------------------
DECLARE @VAR
SET @VAR = ?
EXEC sp_Test @VAR
------------------------------------
and then click parse query I get an error "Syntax error or Access violation"
However; if I use it this way
------------------------------------
EXEC sp_Test ?
------------------------------------
it works.
Now here is the odd thing. If I put in a DECLARE statement and a global parameter "?" I get the syntax error.
But .... If I use a disconnected edit and use DECLARE and "?" then task will run properly. So the problem seems to be with the query parser.
The problem is I don't have the time to edit everything in a disconnected manner. Is there a way or update that will allow me to use DECLARE and "?". I have tried many hotfixes but none have worked.

Receive this error msg when trying to parse a SQL Query
.Net SqlClient Data Provider: Msg 0, Level 11, State 0, Line 0
A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
I have just finished going thru a long process getting SP2 CU3 patch installed.
The first file microsoft sent was corrupted and in turn corrupted my .NET Framework, had to run repair on the Framework before installing CU3.
I am now on version 9.0.3186. I have two other boxes with the same version and do not have this problem
My understanding is that all of the patches/hotfixes since SP,1 that this problem was resolved
Any help will be greatly appreciated as I am in a very heavy development stage on this box.

Although I am able to connect to a SQL 2005 server (both through the SQL Management Studio and through the connection wizard in Visual Studio 2005), I am unable to parse a query if I use a connection set up as ADO.NET. When I use OLE-DB, it works properly. When I attempt to execute a SQL task (comprised of a single SELECT statement), I get "Failed to acquire connection 'servernamegoeshere'. Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection." How can this be if I'm able to parse data from this connection through other means? This happens both locally and remotely.

While inserting information into "XYZ_Entity" entity user can select the required dealer group from domain base Dealer Group values. Now for selecting Dealer he wants the dealers to be filter based on selected dealer group and he can select from the filtered list. reason to do that is he don't want to go through thousands of dealers and select an incorrect one.

(salary + commission) as derived_colum1 ,
(derived_colum1 + xxxxx) as derived_colum2 ,

I am trying to add a column to query based on the value of another column in the query.
I first tried creating a calculated field in SSRS 2008 with this statement:
=IIF(Fields!ChargeableFlag.Value=1,Fields!Negamt.Value,0)
The report runs but I get a "#ERROR" when I place the field on the report.
I next tried creating a new column with the SQL statement:
SELECT Project.ProjectCode AS PC, Project.StatusCode AS SC, Time.StandardHours AS Hours,
Time.StandardChargeAmt AS StdAmt, Time.TaskUID as UID,
Time.StandardChargeRate as Rate, ChargeableFlag, 'Bill' =
Case
When TaskRule.ChargeableFlag = 0 Then 'Non-Bill'
When TaskRule.ChargeableFlag = 1 Then 'Billable'
[Code] .....
This query, less the case statement for BLAmt creates the dataset for the SSRS. Adding the Case statement for the BLAmt produces the error: "Invalid column name 'Negamt'."
