Replacing Column Value

Dec 3, 2007

Hi Guys,

I am faced with a problem that is giving me headaches. I have t1, t2 and t3. I t1 I have students that have a reference to t2 which are the schools they belong to. The problem arises when I see that there is redundancy in t2. There more records for the same schools. This was posible in giving the same school (postcode and name make it the same school) a different ID. In t3 I removed these redundant schools by using fuzzy grouping.

My problem is I want to ensure that the students are put using the schools from t3 instead of t2. So what I need to do is is to replace the redundant id from t2 with the correct id from t3.

Please help. Thans in advance

Replacing Some Names In Column But Not All

Dec 2, 2013

I have a SQL table with 5000 rows in it. Some of the other SQL columns have different values but if I wanted to swap say 500 of the rows would it be something like

UPDATE Coupins
SET Name='test1,test2,test3'
WHERE Name='test4,test5,test6';

I need basically to swap the Name value of these without affecting any other values.

Replacing First Letter Only In Column

May 17, 2006

Hello. We have a list of 1000+ sku numbers. 90% of them start with u. I need to replace the u with T.

Concerns:
It has to only replace the first letter, if there are other "u"s in the sku, they need to remain.
Not all skus start with u, those that don't should remain the same.

I have searched and searched because I'm sure someone has requested the exact same thing but I can't find anything that is identical.

I have this so far but I know its not correct:
set sku = replace(left(sku,1),'u',right(rtrim(sku),1)+
'T')

Can someone help lead me down the right path?

Thanks in advance!!!

Integration Services :: SSIS Package - Replacing Null Values In One Column With Values From Another Column

Sep 3, 2015

I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.

What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column. 

I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.

Derived Shape - Replacing A Column With Itself.

Apr 27, 2006



Hi there,

I have a derived column shape in which I replace a column with an expression.

The expression is an IF statement - a true result sets a value for the column and a false result just uses the existing value of the column (ie it replaces it with itself)

Like this.

ColumnName DerivedColumn Expression

ColumnA Replace 'ColumnA' ColumnB != ColumnC ? "y" : ColumnA



But whenever, the condition is NOT met, ColumnA is set to NULL!!!!

Does this mean that the column value is deleted before the Expression is applied?

If this is how it is meant to work, then does anyone have a way of doing what I want to do without creating extra columns in the dataset??

Cheers.

Urgent-Replacing A List Of Characters From A Column

Nov 13, 2001

Hi,
this is my second attempt to get an answer to this question.
We want to strip our firstName column and lastname column of any punctuation that might be present.
What's the best of doing that?
Is my only choice to write a nested REPLACE for each character we want replaced (which will end up being very very long) or is there another way.
thanks

Replacing Text In A Column For All Rows In The Table?

Oct 24, 2012

I have a column like this:

Table: User
name, field1
Jack 1000|1001|1003
Berg 2000|1001|2004
Paul 1001|1000
Jane 1001

Now, I would like to replace all "1001" with nothing, and also remove the "|"-separator behind 1001 if it exists, basically removing both "1001" and "1001|", so the resulting table looks like this:

name, field1
Jack 1000|1003
Berg 2000|2004
Paul 1000
Jane

My tries, been plenty, but here are some:

Code:
UPDATE UserTable
SET field1 = REPLACE(field1, '1001', '')
UPDATE UserTable
SET field1 = REPLACE(field1, '1001|', '')

But the above queries replaces field1 only if the whole field matches '1001' or '1001|'...

The above queries do work, just like I want them to. I just happened to write them in this order on this post... did not do a copy of the actual query.

SQL 2012 :: Replacing Column Names With Values

Nov 4, 2015

I have a field in a table that contains a different formula (varchar(1000)) for each record. It's along the lines of something like this, although each formula is different: ([ColumnA] - [ColumnB])/([ColumnC] - [ColumnD]). I plug that into a dynamic SQL statement so that it can get executed in a select statement.

Due to the variations of the formulas, checking for Divide by Zero, etc, we want to move this to a .NET method. We'd like to replace "ColumnA" and "ColumnB", etc., with the actual values so that we're passing something like (5-3)/(6-2). I haven't been able to figure out a way to do this without actually executing it. We don't want to pass the solution, but the equation filled with the actual values rather than the column names.

Checking Contents Of Column And Replacing Contents If First Character Is A Letter

Jun 25, 2007

Hi All,I have come up against a wall which i cannot get over.I have an sql db where the date column is set as a varchar (i know, should have used datetime but this was done before my time and i've got to work with what is there). The majority of values are in the format dd/mm/yyyy. However, some values contain the word 'various'.I'm attempting to compare the date chosen on a c# .net page with the values in the db and also return all the 'various' values as well.I have accomplished casting the varchar to a datetime and then comparing to the selected date on the .net page. However, it errors when it comes across the 'various' entrant.Is there anyway to carry out a select statement comparing the start_date values in the db to the selected date on the .net page and also pull out all 'various' entrants at the same time without it erroring? i thought about replacing the 'various' to a date like '01/01/2010' so it doesn't stumble over the none recognised format, but am unsure of how to do it.This is how far i have got: casting the varchar column to datetime and comparing.  SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE Cast(SUBSTRING(Start_Date,4,2) + '/' + SUBSTRING(Start_Date,1,2) + '/' +SUBSTRING(Start_Date,7,4) as datetime)  '" + date + "'"Many thanks in advance!

Column Foreign Key Constraint 'EOR_ITE_REF_EOR'

Mar 17, 2004

I am importing data from a flat, comma delimited text file. It appears to properly import all the records and then on the last record it give me the error

INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint for 'EOR_ITE_REF_EOR'.

Then it goes on to tell me the database, table and column in which the problem occured which is the first column in the table. It looks like it doesn't like the end of the file for some reason (EOR, end of record?) so I tried deleting the last record from the file and it still does it. I do have a file that I have imported that worked so I tried copying the last record of that file and pasting it into the last record of the file I wanted but that did not work either. The ends of file that works and the file that doesn't work look the same and I can find nothing on 'EOR_ITE_REF_EOR'. Any help would be appreciated.

We need to import data from flat/xml files into our database.
we plan to do so in bulk as amount of data is huge, 2GB+
we need to do some validation checks in our code after that we create insert queries.

there are 2 parent tables and 1st table value needs to be referred to in 7 tables and second table's value in 6.

Alter Table Column, Which Is Part Of Foreign Key

Apr 1, 2006

In MS SQL Server, I have the following tables with some data in it.create table table1 (column1 varchar(32),column2 int not null,column10 varchar(255),.....primary key (column1, column2),);create table table2 (column1 varchar(32),column2 int not null,column20 varchar(255) not null,....foreign key (column1, column2) references table1(column1, column2));Now, I need to change the all column types from varchar to nvarchar tosupport internationalized character set.I am able to do so, for columns column10 in table1 and column20 oftable2 without any problems by using command:"alter table table1 alter column column10 nvarchar(255);"But, when I try the similar thing for column1 of table1/table2, amgetting one error message saying like: "ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN failedbecause one or more objects access this column". I guess, this iscoming because of foreign key relationship between the tables.NOTE: While defining the table2, for foreign key I have not specifiedanything like "on update cascase" ...etc.How can I resolve this issue? Any suggestions/solutions are reallyhelpful to me. Thanks in advance.

INSERT Statement Conflicted With COLUMN FOREIGN KEY Constraint...

Feb 18, 2006

Hi there,
I have a stored procedure which i pass a number of parameters into. One of these parameters is staffNo (only passed this in because i couldn't execute the query without it). The thing is this field can be Null, but when trying to pass null into it it comes up with an Foreign Key conflict. staffNo is a foreign key within the table i'm inserting the data into.
This is the error i get:
"INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'PropStaffFK'. The conflict occurred in database 'DewMountain', table 'TblStaff', column 'staffNo'. The statement has been terminated. The 'PropertyAdvert' procedure attempted to return a status of NULL, which is not allowed. A status of 0 will be returned instead. "
 
Does anyone know of away around this? how to pass a null value to the stored procedure without it causing this error.
Thank you
Melanie

How To Do A Join Using Foreign Keys In Stored In A Database Column?

I have a database column that stores a comma delimited list of foreignkeys. Would someone show me how to do a join using the values from alist stored within a record?For example, a record in tbl_cds.genre_id might have a value of "2,5, 6" corresponding to genre_ids 2 , 5 and 6. I want to jointbl_cds.genre_id to tbl_genre.genre_id using the values in that datafield.It seems I need a loop like this:SELECT * FROM tbl_cdsWHEREBegin Looptbl_cds.genre_id[i] = tbl_genre.genre_idEnd Loop.Would someone give me the correct syntax?Is there an alternative method that would create less overhead?Sorry for such a novice post.

INSERT Statement Conflicted With COLUMN FOREIGN KEY SAME TABLE Constraint

Aug 1, 2006

For some reason, I'm getting this error, even without the DBCC Check:

INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY SAME TABLE constraint 'Category_Category_FK1'. The conflict occurred in database 'mydb', table 'Category', column 'CategoryID'.
The statement has been terminated.

The very first insert fails...it was working fine before:


DELETE Category;

INSERT INTO Category

SELECT 1, CategoryName, '', 1, 1, '', 1, GETDATE(), 1, GETDATE(), 1 FROM CategoriesStaging WHERE CategoryName = 'All'

INSERT INTO Category
(ParentCategoryID, [Name], [Description], DisplayOrder, DisplayInExplorer, Keywords, Active, CreateDate, CreateUserID, UpdateDate, UpdateUserID )
SELECT 2, CategoryName, '', 1, 1, '', 1, GETDATE(), 1, GETDATE(), 1 FROM CategoriesStaging WHERE CategoryName = 'Store'


/* Finally, insert the rest and match on the Parent
Category Name based on the CategoryStaging table
*/

WHILE (@@ROWCOUNT <> 0)

INSERT INTO Category

Replacing Values

Hi i have 2 cols

col1 col2

A2 22
A3 21
A4 23

I want to create a report such that i should see all values of col1 but in col2 i want to show only value of 21 and the remaining should be zero.
So basically all the other values except 21 should be zero in the report but should not be updated in the database.

So the report should look like

col1 col2
A1 21
A2 0
A3 21
A4 0

can you please tell me how to do that

Thanks
