I am new to SQL Server development, but I use the automated features in Enterprise Manager a lot.
I have a table with a specific format already existing in a SQL Server 2000 database. This is generated once a day from a flat file received from an outside vendor. I am now receiving a similar flat file from another vendor which is nearly identical, but with two differences.
First, the new flat file is missing two columns (not critical data).
Next, there is one column that is out of order in comparison to the other flat file (aside from the 2 missing columns).
I need a generic example of how to remove specific records from a table and add these new ones (from the new flat file) through the SQL Server. My intention is to have a job run at a specific time through the SQL Server.
Any help is appreciated. If you know of a good tutorial or something out there, I would be more than happy to check it out. Thank you so much for your help!
I have a query currently that looks like this . @Month and @Year are supplied as parameters
SELECT -- select the sum for each year/month combination using a correlated subquery (each result from the main query causes another data retrieval operation to be run) (SELECT SUM(SalesofProductA) FROM #ABC WHERE [Year]=T.[Year] AND [Month]=T.[Month]) AS [Sum_SalesofProductA]
[Code] ...
Right now I see an output like this : for a particular value of @Month and @Year
SalesofProductA, SalesofProductB, SalesofProductC What I would like to see is :
I am TRYING to write code to combine two tables and then return the maximum value of one table, but SQL Server keeps telling me that the column is not valid.... I have added attached screenshots to show that it IS a valid column, so I cannot figure out what is the retarded issue!!
I have write two query but its only work one at a time need your expertise what i am doing wrong.
[Category].Category AS project_type, [SalesManager].SalesManager As Manager, FROM [Category] INNER JOIN (Projects INNER JOIN [MO/FSC] ON Projects.ProjectID = [MO/FSC].Project) ON [Category].ID = Projects.Category FROM [SalesManager] INNER JOIN (Projects INNER JOIN [MO/FSC] ON Projects.ProjectID = [MO/FSC].Project) ON [SalesManager].ID = Projects.SalesManagerID
I'm trying not to use a temp table, but i may have to do so.. I'm using sql2005 for this case.
i have a derived table that makes the following results:
ID Status Name
2 1 "A"
2 2 "B"
I want to get the following:
ID Name1 Name2
2 "A" "B"
but like I said before, I can't repeat the query that gets the first 2 rows, as it's pretty invovled. a temp table is the best route I see right now, but I just wanted to be sure I'm not missing something. If I've aliased it as 'results', is there a way to alias results again as something else? or maybe a trick with CTEs? I will try that! It seems promising.

I have one table with text column(varchar50) and 2 value columns(INT)
it looks like this: c1, c2, c3 1, null, text1 2, null, text2 3, null, text3 4, 3, text4
What i want to do is to combine c3 on row 3 and 4 so the output would look like this: c1, c2, c3 1, null, text1 2, null, text2 3, null, text3 4, 3, text3 ext4
I have tried to use CASE with no luck.
edit: output like this is also fine c1, c2, c3 1, null, text1 2, null, text2 3, null, text3 4, 3, text4 5, null, text3 ext4
I have two tables: TestA and TestB. Both tables have 3 fields: ID,Name, and RunDate. I need to create a query which will join the twotables first on Name but then I need to match up the RunDates eventhough the RunDates won't be the same.CREATE TABLE TestA (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)CREATE TABLE TestB (ID INT IDENTITY, Name VARCHAR(255), RunDateDATETIME)INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/1/2004 12:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 1', '9/2/2004 1:15PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 1', '9/3/2004 3:00PM')INSERT INTO TestA VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:00PM')INSERT INTO TestB VALUES ('Account 2', '9/5/2004 4:15PM')Here's a common scenario:User updates TestA data for Account 1 on 9/1/2004 at 12:00pm. Thenthe user updates TestB data for Account 1, 15 minutes later. I wantthese two records to match. The user must always update TestA databefore they update TestB data. Therefore, there might be more rows inTestA then in TestBHere's what the results should look like for the above data.Name TestA Date TestB Date---- ---------- ----------Account 1 9/1/2004 12:00pm 9/1/2004 12:15PMAccount 1 9/2/2004 1:00pm 9/2/2004 1:15PMAccount 1 9/3/2004 3:00pm (NULL)Account 2 9/5/2004 4:00pm 9/5/2004 4:15PMAny help would be much appreciated!!!!
We are using SQL2005. I have a stored proc that runs a Select query based on a complex view. The sproc has two input date parameters (StartDate and EndDate). We are experiencing SQL timeout problems when the sproc is run with certain Start and End Dates. We have run the SQL Profiler and created a trace (trc) file (We've used the 'Default' trace configuration). We have used the trace file in SQL Server Management Studio to try and automatically create indexes on some of our tables. Unfortunatly SQL Server Management does not make any index recommendations. I think we are not capturing the right information in our trace file to allow SQL Server Management Studio to do its job. How do I use SQL Profiler to capture a trace of my sprocs query, so that it can be used by SQL Server Management Studio, to recommend index changes? Any help appreciated. Reagrds, Paul.
I'm looking for the best solution for creating database tables based on a Word Document with a table. I've attached part of the table from the word doc. This document is base on a template for audit reporting.
What I assume is I would need first to start of by creating two tables. One table would consist of the fields of the horizontal upper most data e.g. conformance, noncomformance etc. The other table would consist of the vertical fields of the word doc table, e.g. editorial, Auditee Name etc. If my assumption is correct, what primary key and foreign key would I need to have?
where name comes from the info table, and number of items comes from the store table.
Query something like:
show the total number of items for all those users (in the fashion Name, Number of items)from the store table, for all those whose level=something and base=something in the auth table.
For example,
if there are 10 users whom match level=something and base=something in the auth table,
What I want displayed is: ------------------------ Name Number of Items ------------------------ user1 10 user2 15 user3 20 .... user10 30 -----------------------
which if broken up is: select name from info where aid=X select count(*) from store where aid=X ..
for all those whose base=something and level=something from auth.
I have a form to assign JOB SITES to previously created PROJECT. The JOB SITES appear in the DataList as it varies based on customer. It can be 3 to 50 JOB SITES per PROJECT. I have "PROJECT" table with all necessary fields for project information and "JOBSITES" table for job sites. I also created a new table called "PROJECTSITES" which has only 2 columns: "ProjectId" and "SiteId". What I am trying to do is to insert multiple rows into that "PROJECTSITES" table based on which checkbox was checked. The checkbox is located next to each site and I want to be able to select only the ones I need. Btw the Datalist is located inside of a formview and has it's own datasource which already distincts which JOBSITES to display. Sample: ProjectId - SiteId 1 - 5 1 - 9 1 - 16 1 - 18 1 - 20 1 - 27 1 - 31 ProjectId stays the same, only values for SiteId are being different. I hope I explaining it right. Do I have to use some sort of loop to go through the automatically populated DataList records and how do I make a multiple inserts to database table? We use SQL Server 2005 and VB for code behind. Please ask if I missed on some information. Thank you in advance.
What I need to do is merge the two tables into a single table based on the matching timestamp:
timestamp, servername1, servername2 as headers then values under "1/1/1-1:10:1" , "10" , "10" - as an example "1/1/1-1:20:1" , "20" , "21" - as an example "1/1/1-1:30:1" , "1" , "5" - as an example
Powershell or MSSQL 2008 queries work.
I have a powershell script atm that can create the table and then throw it back into the database but its very slow because of the amount of records.
The table is for some performance stat collection app.
Table #1 records a timestamp, the servername (which is the same over and over in the table) and the value of the performance object. Table #2 is the same collection but for a different server.
The layout in the database is terrible but this is what I get to work with.
I need to add a child table that will tell us who the participants counselor is, what I did was I did a Make Table query based off the primary key of the Parent table and made that the link (foreign key) for the People_tbl and the Counselor_tbl, so if the counselor changes then the user adds the record to the counselor tbl and then puts in the Effective date. The problem is that when I run a report it doesn't show the present counselor always shows the old counselor?
Code: SELECT Student_ind.StudentFirstName, Student_ind.StudentLastName, Student_ind.[Student ID], People_tbl.[Family ID], People_tbl.FirstName, People_tbl.LastName, People_tbl.[Parent ID] FROM People_tbl RIGHT OUTER JOIN Student_ind ON People_tbl.[Family ID] = Student_ind.[Family ID] WHERE (People_tbl.LastName = @Enter_LastName) AND (People_tbl.FirstName = @Enter_FirstName)

I have two tables in MS SQL 2000 that I need to combine into one. they will share 3 columns and the rest will stay the same. the existing tables are very large and I REALLY don't want to plug in all the data by hand...Any nifty tricks??? I found software but dont want to spend $$ on it.
Here is my dilemma, i'm trying to combine the results of two different tables. Both tables are very similar but the data returned must be sorted before they are combined because I'm only returning the top xx records based on a hits column.
I have tried the following union query which combines the two RS's then sorts the data: SELECT Top 2 ID, Song, Hits FROM Table1 UNION SELECT Top 2 ID, Song, Hits from Table2 Which would return the first two records from each then sort them like this: 2 - tb1SONG 2 - 1459 1 - tb2SONG 1 - 412 1 - tb1SONG 1 - 356 2 - tb2SONG 2 - 85
I would like to sort based on the hits column then combine the RS producing this: 3 - tb2SONG 3 - 2035 2 - tb1SONG 2 - 1459 4 - tb1SONG 4 - 965 5 - tb2SONG 5 - 745
Any ideas or solutions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Im trying to combine 2 unrelated tables to create a new table with all the data. Both tables have the same number of rows. if i have 2 tables with 1 column each and 5 rows in each column, eg.

I'm wanting to migrate an existing customer's database into a new products db. The previous contractor used seperate tables for each product type, where I chose to use one "products" table.
My challenge has been that the previous db uses attributes that aren't common across all products. Would it be best to do a products_attribute table? If so, how would I query the previous products db and seperate the information during an insert between "product A" and "product A attributes"?
If i have to get the statuses from four different tables but want to get first table disabled , second table active and also have statuses field from the 3rd and 4th table how would i do that?
ALM, PV, AD, ACE

I want to include the status field from 3rd and 4th table.
I have 2 tables. first table contains name and age and the second table contains class and roll num. I have a 3rd table which contains all these 4 columns. Now I want to fill the 3rd table with the 1st and 2nd table's data.
Till now I get data form multiple table using join, but unable to understand how can i get the this result based on given table -
Result should be -

How to write a sql to combine the 4 tables into one without repetitive records? The 4 tables have exactly the same fields.
The tables do not have primary key. The fields to identiry the rows is name and dob. In the case the name and dob is same for two records, the one with latest date_created is selected.
