I need to change the first digit (0) in a number, like 05678494 and replace it with 0046 so it would look like 00465678494 when it is done.
I have tried to use the REPLACE function without any success.
Can anyone help me?
I have a table with a column named measurement decimal(18,1). If the value is 2.0, I want the stored proc to return 2 but if the value is 2.5 I want the stored proc to return 2.5. So if the value after the decimal point is 0, I only want the stored proc to return the integer portion. Is there a sql function that I can use to determine what the fraction part of the decimal value is? In c#, I can use
dr["measurement "].ToString().Split(".".ToCharArray())[1] to see what the value after the decimal is.
Hi all I was wondering whether it was possible to remove or delete part of a String in a Field? Lets take for example I have:
- A Table called: Table_1
- A Field called: MyField
- MyField contains the value: Hello I am on the msdn forums
Is it possible to perform an UPDATE Query which deletes part of that sentence? If this was hard coded it would be rather simple but if the phrase was changing which would lead to the sentence also changing is it possible to do this?
Lets say I wanted to remove the part which said msdn forums. Then UPDATE the field again which should leave out the bit msdn forums.
Appreciate the responses, Onam.
I'm trying to replace a particular part of a row in a table with a new value.
The row is called "DataPath" and it has a lot of values like so:
mashOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
I want to run a query to replace the mash with our DFS namespace share name companysharesDepartments but keep everything else past the mash part of the original row.
I'm currently running this query, it says it is altering 30,000 rows, but it doesn't look like it's doing anything at all..
UPDATE dbo.Part
SET DataPath = REPLACE(DataPath,'company.localsharesDepartments','mash')
WHERE DataPath like 'mash\%'
So for example, it would change the mash above to
company.localsharesDepartmentsOperationsComponent Data FilesSantec
I'm copying files to a folder with the naming convention as follows in the source folder:
CM_ABC_MY_TEST.txt
In the destination folder, this filename needs to appear as:

In my File System Task, I'm pretty sure I'm going to need an expression with a replace, substring, etc. But am having a hard time nailing down the exact syntax.
There is column mobile_number in my table
I have to replace with star(*) to the middle six character from contact number of 10 digit.
For example
The Contact number is 9334459875
I have to display it as follows
93******75 first two digit and last two only.
There are 3 columns in the result set - part num, Qty and MO num. Each MO num has part numbers.So there might be same part numbers in MO's. Each part num has qty. So, if I group by part num, I get Qty.
1.There are duplicates of part.num and I want to remove duplicates and add quantities of those duplicates into one single quantity. For example, xxxx is a part num, then xxxx=1,xxxx=3,xxxx=5. I want xxxx=9. I want to sum those. Another question is, each MO has a user. I want to join user and MO num in MO.
Heres the code,
part.num , (woitem.qtytarget/wo.qtytarget) AS woitemqty,
(SELECT LIST(wo.num, ',') FROM wo INNER JOIN moitem ON wo.moitemid = moitem.id WHERE moitem.moid = mo.id) AS wonums FROM mo INNER JOIN moitem ON mo.id = moitem.moid
LEFT JOIN wo ON moitem.id = wo.moitemid
LEFT JOIN woitem ON wo.id = woitem.woid AND woitem.typeid = 10 LEFT JOIN (Select sum(woitem.qtytarget) as labor, woitem.woid, uom.code as uom from woitem JOIN part on woitem.partid = part.id and part.typeid = 21 JOIN uom on woitem.uomid = uom.id group by 2,3) as labor on wo.id = labor.woid LEFT JOIN part ON woitem.partid = part.id
I have SSRS 2005 SP2 configured to work in Sharepoint integration. Everything works fine except that I am not able to programmatically change any property of report viewer web part (instance) that I have added on on home page of my sharepoint site.
I can do same thing via sharepoint UI but not through program. When my programs runs it fetches all web parts been added on home page, then I need to iterate through each one and find report viewer web part.
While iterating, as soon as I arrive to report viewer web part it is named as "Error web part" with error message as
"Windows SharePoint Services cannot deserialize the Web Part. Check the format of the properties and try again"
If someone has a solution, please respond at your earlist.
Thanks

I have made the following Scalar-valued function:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[TimeCalc]
(
@OriginalTime AS INTEGER
, @TenthsOrHundredths AS INTEGER -- code 2: 1/10, code 4: 1/100
)
RETURNS NVARCHAR(8)
[Code] ....
What it does is convert numbers to times
E.g.: 81230 gets divided by 10 (times in seconds: 8123). This 1 1 full minute, and the remainder = 2123 making it 1.21.23 mins)
So far so good (function works perfectly)
My question: sometimes times are in 1/100 (like above sample), sometimes in 1/10.
This means that, e.g. with a time like 3.23.40 the last zero must be deleted.
My thoughts are to use the results from the Return Case part, and as the code = 4: leave it as it is,
is the code 2 the use LEFT(... result Return Case ..., Len(..result Return Case.. - 1))
There are 5 codes: 0 1 2 3 and 4

Hi i have 2 cols
col1 col2
A1 21
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

Hi,Is it possible to do from one script? We have a set of user's tables like"tbl%". We can get this list very easy using this script:SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE xtype = 'U' AND name LIKE 'tbl%' ORDER BYname;We need to change some column names if these names are in a special listthat we have. What can we do? Use FOR EACH ROW? Or what?So, I need to get a column list for each table and check if every columnname is equal to one of the names from the list and then if YES replace itby something or add some symbol to this name. Terrible or possible?Regards,Dmitri

Hi all,
We are trying to migrate a SQL Server 2005 database/schema onto SQL CE. The original SQL Server 2005 schema uses views. And VIEWs are not supported on SQL CE. What can we use as an alternative?
Here are the option I can think of:
Use Tables instead of views : We are currently using this approach. But the disadvantage is that data remains on the DB. We need to clean and reuse the table everytimeCan we use a DataSet or DataTable instead? Any sample code available?
Can we replace them by some in-memory data structure?

Hi,
I would like to replace all instances of a code that starts with 'GEM' with the word 'Perfect'', and all instances of the code that starts with 'GOLD' replaced with 'Imperfect'.
For example, if I have a table named STONES, and a field within the table STONES.Code contained codes such as 'GEMPART4000', 'GEMPART5000', 'GOLDSIDE2300' and 'GOLDSIDE3000', I want to return the first two codes as the words 'Perfect' for each and the last two codes with the word 'Imperfect' for each.
Similarly, how would it be written so I could select a middle part of the code to use as the trigger to replace the code with something different, e.g. if I wanted to use the 'PART' from the first two codes?
I have discovered that the REPLACE and CASE functions don't work with % (so I am looking for any code that starts with what I stipulate but can end with anything (or using it on either side of the middle part of the code)).
Any help would really be appreciated please.
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
I am trying to clean up an ugly query that's based on trying to find items that exist in one table but not the other.
My tables are like this:
ITEMSitemID,itemName,itemDescriptionetc...
ORDERITEMSOrderLineID,OrderID,itemID
ORDERSOrderID,OrderCompleted
Currently my query looks something like this:
Select Items.* from ITEMS where not exists (select 1 from ORDERITEMS inner join ORDERS on ORDERITEMS.OrderID = ORDERS.OrderID where ORDERITEMS.itemID=ITEMS.itemID and (ORDERS.OrderCompleted=1))
So this query is looking for ITEMS what don't have a corresponding entry in the ORDERITEMS table. As I understand it this is pretty inefficient as it is going to be executing the sub query in the Not Exists statement for each entry in the ITEMS table. Is the preferred method to do something along the lines of somehow making the sub query into a derived table and doing a left or right join?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi, I have the following query.
sql = "select firstname AS Expr1, lastname AS Expr2, status AS Expr3 from person order by lastname"
Status is either 0,1,2 or 3
How can I use the query to create "a temp Alias" for the query, so that there is a "temp Alias" AS Expr4, AS Expr5, AS Expr6 and AS Expr7.
So if status = 0 then Expr4 = "true" else false
So if status = 1 then Expr5 = "true" else false
So if status = 2 then Expr6 = "true" else false
So if status = 3 then Expr7 = "true" else false
So when the reader reads Expr4 its either true or false.
Is this possible i a query?

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.
I've got a sproc that we are migrating from SS2K that uses the reserved keyword 'Pivot'. Best way to replace it. I think it is renameable until the select from TempDB (which is mysterious as I can't see a table in tempDB by that name!!) as below...

@sumfunc varchar(100),

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!!!
