Hi guys,
As the title shows, i would like to learn how to return ranked results, and be able to order by relevance/rank. I am currently using SQL2000, though the final site may be going live with SQL2005. The data i am searching against is in tables, not Indexed files.
I have no idea where to start......Does it have somthing to do with the amount of times the keywords appear?
any help would be great
Regards
Darren
I need to order my search results by relevance to the keywords entered by the user, how can i do that in sql ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using Sql Server 2014 Express edition.I have a table with a varchar(max) column. I have created a full text search that use the stoplist "system". column has this struct: xxx.yyy.zzz.... where xxx, yyy, zzz... are numbers, like 123.345.123123.366456...I can have rows like that:
123.345
123.345
123.345.444
123.345.555
123.345.666
123.345.444.777
123.345.444.888
123.345.555.999
I am trying this query:
select * from Mytable where
contains(MyColumn, '123.345.')
I gues the contains would return all the rows with column contains 123.345, but this does not return all the expected rows, only one row.I have tried to replace "." with "-" but the result is the same.I have also tried with '123.345.*. In this case I have got more results, but no all the exptected rows.If I use this query:
select * from MyTable where
MyCOlumn like '123.345.%';
Hi guys
I need to create an "advanced search" which will allow the user to narrow down his results.
Ideally I'd want him/her to use the same search criteria form for each iteration, with a checkbox called "Search within results" type of thing.
Now what I was wondering if there was any existing literature on how to effectively do this. I have tried doing it just through SQL Statements but they are becoming very messy and large.
Is it possible to do this by searching the initial dataset, returning dataset #2 and then if a 3rd "search within results" is done apply the search against dataset #2 and return dataset #3 etc?
Many Thanks
John
i have a table containing the top 5 teams points for the current season using the rank function, and as well as their points for last season.the only problem is that i want to add a sequential ranking to the table so that if there are 2 or more teams with the same score this season, they are ranked based on their points last season;
League -- Team - Season -- Points
League 1 AAA 2013-14 90
League 1 BBB 2013-14 80
League 1 CCC 2013-14 75
League 1 DDD 2013-14 70
League 1 EEE 2013-14 65
League 1 AAA 2014-15 90
League 1 BBB 2014-15 80
League 1 CCC 2014-15 80
League 1 DDD 2014-15 70
League 1 EEE 2014-15 65
Below is my sample data. I can't figure out how to select Unique phonenumber contacts for the same Ranked values from the set.
Basically the table is a mix of contactIDs. Some of them have duplicate phone numbers and through a separate mechanism we have ranked them.
It's easier then to pull out max(ranked) CLI_Numbers and their counterpart contactID(s). But I am also getting 2 or more records where the rank happens to be the same. I don't want that. Any one of the contactID will do for me.
The table has also same cliNumbers with different rank values, which are then correctly being picked up in the query below.
Note: ContactId is a unique value for each person in the table.
RecordID is simply RowID.
( I have attempted to populate a sample data suited for this forum - not sure how it comes out on the browser)
if object_id('tempdb..#MyData') is not null
drop table #MyData
create table #MyData
(
RecordID int,
contactID int,
forename varchar(25),
surname varchar(25),
[Code] ....
This is my query attempt
With RankedmobileDuplicateSet
as(
select cliNumber, max(ranked_value) as ranked_max_value
from #temp_UK_mobiledata
group by cliNumber)
[Code] .....
Hello! I am using this code to search the database but for some reason it's not liking the parameter I put there. Here is my code that works great with no parameters:
protected void getBusinessInfo() { DataSet ds; ds = SqlHelper.ExecuteDataset(connection, "spBusinessInfoSearch"); gvSearch.DataSource = ds; gvSearch.DataBind();
}
protected void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { getBusinessInfo(txtName.Text); }
Here is what I put in the stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.spBusinessInfoSearch
ASSELECT * from vwUserprofileInfo where DisplayName like '%Eric%'
RETURN
Now, when I used the same code with paramers nothing is returned.
protected void getBusinessInfo(string param1) { DataSet ds; ds = SqlHelper.ExecuteDataset(connection, "spBusinessInfoSearch", new SqlParameter("@DisplayName", param1)); gvSearch.DataSource = ds; gvSearch.DataBind();
}
protected void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { getBusinessInfo(txtName.Text); }
Can anyone suggest whey I dont get any results with this search?
SQL reads:
SELECT SupplierName, Location, ShortDescription
FROM Query1
WHERE 'TimberSpecies' LIKE '%MMColParam%' AND 'CategoryTable' LIKE '%MMColParam2%' AND 'Location' LIKE '%MMColParam3%'
MMColParam 1 Request.Form("keywordSearch")
MMColParam2 2 Request.Form("location")
MMColParam3 3 Request.Form("category")

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm busy writing a local site search engine that searches through a sql
server database and I want to know how or what is the correct sql
syntax to use in order to limit the amount of results a page loads at a
time? The idea is obviously similar to something like google where you
only see a certain amount of results first and then click at the botom
for the next eg. 10 results.
The second question is how do I, after the first page with the first
set of results that were shown, "clear" the second page of
the previous html in order to show the next set of results?
To give you an idea what my code looks like at the moment. Please don't
kill me if the code is done a bit a lame, because I'm still learning.

hi.
i know this is a bit of a shot in the dark but, does anybody know of a reasonably understandable way to rank XML node path results based on keyword search terms? seems like there are tons of uber-complex docs on the internet about this. i dont mind if it is a bit of a work-around, i am just looking for something that is reasonable non-complex that i can wrap my mind around. links etc apprecaited.
thanks.
I am not aware of this if it exists in MS SQL server. But I need to return results in alphabetic order ignoring "The" if it's the first word of a title...
so for example title "The Cliffhanger" would be returned along with other titles that start with letter C, but "The" also must be returned as part of the title, but just ignored while alphabetizing.
I'm sure that I'm not the first one to ever need this and don't want to re-invent the wheel, so if you have any ideas as to the best way to accomplish this, help me out.
Thanks in advance.
I have a DBTable named Vendors which includes the following columns: CompanyName (Name Here)
SBI (Yes, No)
MBE (Yes, No)
SBI (Yes, No)
WBE (Yes, No)
I'm trying to do a search on Vendors where either SBI or MBE or SBI or WBE is equal to 'yes' and then order by company name.
I'm lost on both the search and the results code.
I'd like to have a drop down for the search like this:
<form name="Search" action="vendor_results.asp" method="post">
<Input type=hidden name="validate" value=1>
Show all Vendors who are: <Select name="?????">
<OPTION value="YES">SBI
<OPTION value="YES">SBE
<OPTION value="Yes">MBE
<OPTION value="Yes">WBE
</select>
<Input type="submit" Value="Go">
</form>
Any ideas on how to make this work would be greatly appreciated.
I want to break up a set of search results into small chunks. For instance, think about how Google displays a block of ten results out of the entire set. Selecting the top 10 is dead easy with "TOP 10"; how do I select the next 10?
Obviously one option would be to select the top 20, and programmatically discard the first 10, but surely there is a better way? I am doing this for a ASP.NET 2.0 application, and if I can retrieve just what I want, I can DataBind to a Repeater, and let ASP.NET do all the hard work of displaying the data.
Say I want to search for a range of account numbers but only which are active. After I set my field for A (active) this field shows in my results, I dont want it to.
In Access you can easily just uncheck that field in design view, but how do I do it in sql?
In sql server 2000 - our QA pointed out that his testing for empty strings returned 200 + rows but that when he clicked in the field there were obviously a space there. This issue came up because of the script I created to replace and earlier one that queried on empty strings instead of datalength and the earlier script always reported that it had updated x number of rows regardless of how many times it was run on the same database.
QA query based on the earlier script:
Select * from StringTable
WHERE (LongString = '' OR LongString IS NULL)
My script:
The fields are nvarchars in the newer database but older version of the database had varchars. I had created a script to replace empty strings as follows:
-- if LongString column is varchar - run varchar update else nvarchar update
If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'LongString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin
-- update varchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 1) OR LongString IS NULL)
END
Else Begin
-- update nvarchar LongString
UPDATE StringTable
SET LongString = char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(LongString ) < 2) OR LongString IS NULL)
END
If exists (Select * from sysobjects o
inner join syscolumns c on c.id = o.id
where c.name = 'ShortString' and o.name = 'StringTable' and c.xtype = 167) begin
UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 1) OR ShortString IS NULL)
END
Else Begin
-- update nvarchar ShortString
UPDATE StringTable
SET ShortString= char(32)
-- Select * from StringTable
WHERE ((DATALENGTH(ShortString) < 2) OR ShortString IS NULL)
END
My method for checking for datalength appears to work correctly why doesn't the QA script? I thought it might have to do with the nvarchar used in the table but I changed the column to a varchar and still has the same issue.
Thanks
Hello,
My full-text search isn't working at all! I have a temporary table with full-text indexing enabled where files are scanned for social security numbers. If it has one, the user will see a message that it believes it's found a SSN and won't upload it. There is only ever one row in this table, as we overwrite the contents upon each upload.
I'm testing this search, and it doesn't work. The table has the following columns:
attachemtId (int) - primary key
fileContent (image) - contents of the file
fileExtension (varchar) - extension of the file (this is always either ".pdf" or ".doc")
I created a .doc file that simply says "ssn", and then run the following query:
SELECT * FROM TempAttachment
WHERE CONTAINS(fileContent,'ssn')
and nothing is returned! I tried the same thing with a .pdf file, and same results.
I'm not sure if this is related, but earlier I had this issue where I had to reset permissions for the directory. I've tried removing the full-text index and adding it again, but that didn't do anything. I also checked error logs on the server, and there were no messages. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
Hi, I was wondering if any SQL Server gurus out there could help me...I
have a table which contains text resources for my application. The text
resources are multi-lingual so I've read that if I add a html language
indicator meta tag e.g.<META NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="ES">and
store the text in a varbinary column with a supporting Document Type
column containing ".html" of varchar(5) then the full text index
service should be intelligent about the language word breakers it
applies when indexing the text. (I hope this is correct technique for
best multi-lingual support in a single table?)However, when I come to query this data the results always return 0 rows (no errors are encountered). e.g.DECLARE @SearchWord nvarchar(256)SET @SearchWord = 'search' -- Yes, this word is definitely present in my resources.SELECT * FROM Resource WHERE CONTAINS(Document, @SearchWord)I'm a little puzzled as Full Text search is working fine on another table that employs an nvarchar column.Any pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,Gavin.
I'd like to get some ideas for the following:
I am writing a quick mini-application that searches for records in a database, which is easy enough. However, if the search term comes up empty, I need to return 10 records before the positon the search term would be in if it existed, and 10 records after. (Obviously the results are ordered on the search term column)
So for example, if I am searching on "Microsoft", and it doesn't exist in my table, I need to return the 10 records that come before Microsoft alphabetically, and then the 10 that come after it.
I have a SP that does this, but it is pretty messy and I'd like to see if anyone else had some ideas that might be better.
Thanks!
Hi, Could you tell me if this is possible? How do I return results using an entire column as part of the search parameter? I need to do this in the sql rather than selecting the contents and iterating through it as it would take too long.
eg.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tPopupKeywords](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT FOR REPLICATION NOT NULL,
[title] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[description] [nvarchar](2000) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT INTO dbo.tPopupKeywords(title, description)
SELECT 'check', 'desc' UNION ALL
SELECT 'for', 'desc' UNION ALL
SELECT 'keywords', 'desc'
select dbo.tpopupkeywords.title
where 'This is an example of a passed in string to check if any keywords are returned.'
LIKE '% ' + dbo.tpopupkeywords.title + ' %' --Does this bit need to do a select??
expected results.....:
check
keywords
I have created a table(T1) from select query result, that Select query is parameterised. Now I need to update the select query table(T1) based on the result every time.
Below is my Query:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[RPT_Cost_copy]
SELECT MEII.*, SIMM.U_SP2DC, UPPER(SIMM.U_C3C2) AS GRP3,sb.cost, PREV.Z1, PREV.Z3, SB.Z2, SB.Z4,SIMM.U_C3DC1 AS FAM
INTO T1
FROM
(SELECT a.meu, a.mep2, SUM(a.mest) as excst
FROM mei as A WHERE a.myar=@yr and a.mprd=@mth AND LTRIM(A.MCU) <> '' AND LTRIM(A.MRP2) <> ''
[code]....
Hi, I was wondering if any SQL Server gurus out there could help me...
I have a table which contains text resources for my application. The text resources are multi-lingual so I've read that if I add a html language indicator meta tag e.g.
<META NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="ES">
and store the text in a varbinary column with a supporting Document Type column containing ".html" of varchar(5) then the full text index service should be intelligent about the language word breakers it applies when indexing the text. (I hope this is correct technique for best multi-lingual support in a single table?)
However, when I come to query this data the results always return 0 rows (no errors are encountered). e.g.
DECLARE @SearchWord nvarchar(256)
SET @SearchWord = 'search' -- Yes, this word is definitely present in my resources.
SELECT * FROM Resource WHERE CONTAINS(Document, @SearchWord)
I'm a little puzzled as Full Text search is working fine on another table that employs an nvarchar column.
Any pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,
Gavin.
We have a table that is Full Text Search index enabled on one column.This table has 200 lakhs of rows(20000000) . ContainsTable() function is searching data with in these 200 lakhs of rows(20000000), if any new rows are inserted then the ContainsTable is not going to search in these recent inserted rows.
We observed when we try for a data to search. it is returning the rows till the rows that are inserted date is less than 30th of march 2012. but not searching in the records that are created after April month , if even the data we are searching is available .
TableFulltextItemCount is around 2.2 crores.
Then we done rebuilt the FT catalog Index. then the TableFulltextItemCount became 0.Again we run the containstable query ,but still it is not getting results.
As the no of rows are very more . so i am not able to show the actual rows from which the data is not coming.
the below query gives 2 results that are from actual base table
HTML Code:
select * from g_case_action_log where cas_details like '%235355%' and product_id = 38810
To search for the same above word using FTS,I have used the query as below
HTML Code:
SELECT Distinct top 50 cal.case_id,cal.cas_details From g_case_action_log cal (READUNCOMMITTED)inner join containstable(es.g_case_action_log, cas_details, ' ("235355" OR "<br>235355" OR "235355<br> ") ') as key_tbl on cal.log_id = key_tbl.[key] Where cal.product_id = 38810 ORDER By cal.case_id DESC
I have attached one sql script file for your ref that contains create logic and index schema properties
Why it is not returning results all the time.
I have a FullTextSQLQuery which I am trying to search a phrase(The Multi-part identifier) on full text indexed table. I am getting expected results on running the below sql query on QA machine and PreProduction servers, but not getting the same results on our development and production servres as even though same code running.
SELECT DISTINCT TOP 50 c.case_id,c.status_id,cal.cas_details
FROM g_case_action_log cal (READUNCOMMITTED)
INNER JOIN g_case c (READUNCOMMITTED) ON (cal.case_id = c.case_id)
INNER JOIN CONTAINSTABLE(es.g_case_action_log, cas_details,
' "The multi-part identifier" OR "<br>The multi-part identifier" OR
"The multi-part identifier<br>" ') as key_tbl
ON cal.log_id = key_tbl.[key]
ORDER By c.case_id DESC
We are using SqlServer 2008 R2 version on all servers.
We are running SQL 2014 SP1. We are using defined Full text indexes on several tables in the database. However, on one specific set of servers, a certain search will not return any data. This exact same search works on another set of servers built identically. The first responses I'm sure will be stop list, but I have dropped and recreated the FTI multiple times with different stop lists or no stop list at all and get the same results.
The specific word being searched on is YUM. If I change the value to YUMk, it actually returns, and if I change the data to TUM it returns, but YUM does not. This exact query is working on multiple other systems, so it seems to be something environmental, but I haven't been able to pinpoint it.
I have written this sample query to search a full-text indexed table and return the results. If the word occurs more than once I want it to return as a new record and the results show a short summary of the location. I was using 'like', but the full table scans were really slowing it down. Can performance be improved for the following (The results returned by my query are accurate)
Query
DECLARE @searchString nvarchar(255);
DECLARE @searchStringWild nvarchar(275);
SET @searchString = 'first';
SET @searchStringWild = UPPER('"' +@searchString+ '*"');
SELECT id, '...' + SUBSTRING(searchResults.MatchedCell, searchResults.StartPosition, searchResults.EndPosition - searchResults.StartPosition) + '...' as Result
[Code] ....
I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks
Hi - I'm short of SQL experience and hacking my way through creating a simple search feature for a personal project. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me out with writing a stored procedure. Problem: I have two tables with three columns indexed for full-text search. So far I have been able to successfully execute the following query returning matching row ids: dbo.Search_Articles @searchText varchar(150) AS SELECT ArticleID FROM articles WHERE CONTAINS(Description, @searchText) OR CONTAINS(Title, @searchText) UNION SELECT ArticleID FROM article_pages WHERE CONTAINS(Text, @searchText); RETURN This returns the ArticleID for any articles or article_pages records where there is a text match. I ultimately need the stored procedure to return all columns from the articles table for matches and not just the StoryID. Seems like maybe I should try using some kind of JOIN on the result of the UNION above and the articles table? But I have so far been unable to figure out how to do this as I can't seem to declare a name for the result table of the UNION above. Perhaps there is another more eloquent solution? Thanks! Peter
View 3 Replies View RelatedOur clients want to be able to do full text search with a single letter. (Is the name Newton, Nathan, Nick?, Is the ID N1, N2...). Doing a single character full text search on a table work 25 out of 26 times. The letter that doesn't work is 'n'. the WHERE clause CONTAINS(full_text_field, ' "n*" ') returns all rows, even rows that have no 'n' in them anywhere. Adding a second letter after the "n" works as expected.
Here is an example
create table TestFullTextSearch (
Id int not null,
AllText nvarchar(400)
)
create unique index test_tfts on TestFullTextSearch(Id);
create fulltext catalog ftcat_tfts;
[Code] ....
I have a scenario of where the standard Full-Text search identifies keywords but Semantic Search does not recognize them as keywords. I'm hoping to understand why Semantic Search might not recognize them. The context this is being used in medical terminology and the specific key words I noticed missing right off the bat were medications.
For instance, if I put the following string into a FT indexed table
'J9355 - Trastuzumab (Herceptin)'
AND
'J9355 - Trastuzumab emtansine'
The Semantic Search recognized 'Herceptin' and 'Emtansine' but not 'Trastuzumab'
Nor in
'J8999 - Everolimus (Afinitor)'
It did not recognize 'Afinitor' as a keyword.
In all cases the Base of Full-Text did find those keywords and were identifiable using the dmvsys.dm_fts_index_keywords_by_document.It does show the index as having completed.
why certain words might not be picked up while others would be? Could it be a language/dictionary issue? I am using English and accent insensitive settings?
would you use sql server "full text search" feature as your site index? from some reason i can't make index server my site search catalog, and i wonder if the full text is the solution. i think that i wll have to you create new table called some thing like "site text" and i will need to write every text twice- one the the table (let's say "articles table") and one to the text. other wise- there is problems finding the right urlof the text, searching different tables with different columns name and so on...
so i thought create site search table, with the columns:
id, text, url
and to write every thing to this table.
but some how ot look the wrong way, that every forum post, every article, album picture or joke will insert twice to the sqr server...
what do you think?
