How do I use a @variable to hold on value return from an exec ('string command') statement.
Example for:
declare @OldID int
declare @cmd varchar(255)
declare @db varchar(25)
declare @OldOwner varchar(25)
set @db = 'DBNAME'
set @OldOwner = 'USERNAME'
select @cmd = 'select uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
exec (@cmd)
How can I use @OldID to hold on UID return from this statement.
When I try use:
select @cmd = 'select @OldID = uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
then I'm getting a error message: @OldID not declare.
Thanks.

Lets say I have a column of type varchar and need to extract an integer value from the middle of it. The string looks like this:'this part is always the same' + integer of varying length + 'this part is different but always the same length'Is there a way to trim the constant string lengths from the beginning and end?

I have a Save method in my class file that connects to my sql db to 4 datasets, which I then wrap together. I am currently instantiating 4 different Sql Client connections to do this.
Would it be more efficient to use just one?

I am trying to write a query in sql query analyzer that will extract a date that appears after the first comma in the string. An example of the data is below:
DAVE,12/31/03,17:18,PERIODENDP
AS,01/16/06,16:51,CUSTOMERS_VW
EM,11/09/07,15:08,ORDER_ENTRY_
I want to select the 8 characters after the first comma in the field, and then convert it to a date format.
I am a novice, so any help with the correct function and syntax would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Dave

I usually do this through Access so I'm not too familiar with the string functions in SQL. My question is, how do you remove characters from the middle of a string?
Ex:
String value is 10 characters long.
The string value is X000001250.
The end result should look like, X1250.
I've tried mixing/matching multiple string functions with no success. The only solution I have come up with removes ALL of the zeros, including the tailing zero. The goal is to only remove the consecutive zeroes in the middle of the string.

Ok following scenario
create table dbo.ADAssets
(Computername nvarchar(max))
insert into dbo.ADAssets
values
('AIRLBEOF3565 CNF:4e926e06-6f62-4864-aebd-6311543d',
'AIRLBEOF3565')
So if execute the following
select Computername
from dbo.ADAssets
where Computername like
'AIRLBEOF3565%'
I get both records,but if I do this
select *
from dbo.ADAssets
where Computername in
(
'AIRLBEOF3565 CNF:4e926e06-6f62-4864-aebd-6311543d',
'AIRLBEOF3565'
)
I only get AIRLBEOF3565
So the big picture is that I need to compare 2 tables to find records that match & don't but that I get matches that shouldn't be & matches that aren't.

so i could write.
UPDATE tbaddress
SET Title='New address'
WHERE Title='New address....'
but, there could be more than this specific record in the table, so i have to find each single record to do this. Is there a way to update the table so I can just remove the .... but rest of the text remain.

How to parse a string to equal length substrings in SQL
I am getting a long concatenated string from a query (CTVALUE1) and have to use the string in where clause by parsing every 6 characters..
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PTEMP](
[ID] [char](10) NULL,
[name] [char](10) NULL,
[CTVALUE1] [char](80) NULL
)
INSERT INTO PTEMP
VALUES('11','ABC','0000010T00010L0001000T010C0001')
select * from ptemp
after parsing I have to use these values in a where clause like this
IN('000001','0T0001','0L0001','000T01','0C0001')
Now ,the values can change I mean the string may give 5 values(6 character) today and 10 tomorrow..So the parsing should be dynamic.

Hello! This is my scenario...
Development - Visual Studio 2005
Database - MS SQL 2005
I have written a stored procedure that has a output parameter whose type is NVARCHAR(MAX). Then I use C# to wrap this stored procedure in OLEDB way. That means the OleDbType for that parameter is VarWChar.
This works fine if the string size is less than 4000. If more than 4000, the remaining part will be chopped off. The situation gets worst if I replace VarWChar with LongVarWChar. There is no error nor warning at compiling time. But there is an exception at run time.
So... Does anyone here can help me out? Thanks in advance.

I have a whole bunch of bit fields in an SQL data base, which makes it a little messy to report on.
I thought a nice idea would be to assigne a text string/null value to each bit field and concatenate all of them into a result.
This is the basic logic goes soemthing like this:
select case new_accountant = 1 then 'acct/' end +
case new_advisor = 1 then 'adv/' end +
case new_attorney = 1 then 'atty/' end as String
from new_database
The output would be
Null, acct/, adv/, atty, acct/adv/, acct/atty/... acct/adv/atty/
So far, nothing I have tried has worked.
Any ideas?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone could help...
I have a usertable which adds anyone whom is new to the records. However the site has had quite an increase in traffic and the stored procedure (SP) The problem is that if two new users call the SP with say a second of each other the sp tries to enter the same user key.
The sp basically checks the last id and add 1 on to it.. Simple but inbetween checking and interest someone else is doing the same creating a violation ...
Basically ineed to put a hold on the select and intert until complete... A sort of que up ...
Sorry if it a dumb question...
ps i've read about changing the entire conection but i only need it for this SP...
Thanks

I was wondering if it is possible to create a variable that holds the filename as an expression. I am using a For each loop to pick up files and i want to insert the 'Filename' as a colum in to the destination Table so that i can differentiate among the rows in my destination Table.
Using the 'Derived Colum' in DTS I can link the colum to a variable. However i do not know how to create the variable which will dynamically store the filename for each file....
Any Clues...
Would really appreciate the help.....
Or is anyone knows any other simple way of inserting the filename as a column in the destination Table ...Been stuck on this for a while...

I have a select statement and I would like to know which when clause(1st set of whens) was fired and the value of the then for further use in my query. I am wondering if this is possibly, and how it would be done. If i try and set a @variable at the beginning of the case statament i get an error, here is my query SELECT PIE.productID, PIE.quantity, CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5 as width, CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5 as length, ***throws an error**** @sqft = CASE --- but the then clause of this CASE is the value i want for later use in this same query WHEN CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5 > (2.0 * (CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5)) THEN CEILING((((CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5) * 1.5) * CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5)/1.0)*1.0 WHEN CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5 > (2.0 * (CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5)) THEN CEILING((((CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5) * 1.5) * CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5)/1.0)*1.0 ELSE CEILING((CEILING((PIE.length/12.0)/0.5)*.5) * (CEILING((PIE.width/12.0)/0.5)*.5)/1.0)*1.0 END AS sqft, CASE WHEN @custMarkup = 1 THEN (SELECT PML1 FROM ProductMarkup PM WHERE PIE.productID = PM.productID) WHEN @custMarkup = 2 THEN (SELECT PML2 FROM ProductMarkup PM WHERE PIE.productID = PM.productID) WHEN @custMarkup = 3 THEN (SELECT PML3 FROM ProductMarkup PM WHERE PIE.productID = PM.productID) WHEN @custMarkup = 4 THEN (SELECT PML4 FROM ProductMarkup PM WHERE PIE.productID = PM.productID) WHEN @custMarkup = 5 THEN (SELECT PML5 FROM ProductMarkup PM WHERE PIE.productID = PM.productID) END AS markup FROM ProductsInEstimate PIE WHERE estID = @estid

I am new to SQL server so apologies if this is a stupid question.
I have a website built and hosted by another company, with SQL server
back end data. They don't want to analyse the data but I do. I am
familiar with SQL and have SQL server express running on my laptop.
So I was thinking I could get them to send me the data from the server
(it will be less than 1GB I imagine), and I could analyse it myself.
So my questions are:
will this work?
and what do I ask them to send me? Is it just a couple of files they
have to copy and send me? Or is it more complicated than that?
Many thanks for any advice you can offer.
James

We have an asp.net app with about 200 data entry forms. Customers mayenter data into any number of forms. Each form's data is persisted ina corresponding sql table. When data entry is complete, it needs to beprocessed. Here's where the questions start.How can we easily determine in which tables a customer has data and howbest to select that data?We're not opposed to putting all the data in a single table. Thistable would wind up having ~15 million records and constantly have CRUDoperations performed against it by up to 5000 users simultaneously.With sufficient hardware, is this too much to ask of the db?

I'm using a file Task to rename files to include a Month and Year in the FIle. Part of the requirement in the file name is a two digit month. I have the following query built which will return a two digit month regardless if it's a one or two digit month.
SELECT REPLACE(STR(MONTH(DATEADD("Month", -1,GETDATE())), 2), ' ', '0')
This works perfect when running in T-SQL, but when attempting to define a variable in the expression
REPLACE(STR(MONTH(DATEADD("Month", -1,GETDATE())), 2), ' ', '0') expression keeps failing the evaluation?
Anyone run into a simliar issue or have a suggested work around?

What is the most efficient standalone .NET class that can hold a single disconnected record? The class must also retain column names, but other schema is not relevant (.NET data type is sufficient).If I understand System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord, it provides an interface on a DbDataReader, and has no storage of its own.I'm familiar with DataSet, is that the only .NET-standard class to do this? Thank you,Shannon

I have an ordering database with several tables that store data of orders belonging to a wide variety of clients. There is a generic report that I need to run which outputs the same data elements. However the criteria to select these orders will vary widely between each client. For e.g.
i) for client# 1 it could be all orders that are still open after 30 days of placing an order
(
OrderStatus = 'Open'
AND
GetDate() - OrderCreationDate >= 30
)
ii) for client# 2 it could be all orders that have been completed 60 days or earlier
(
OrderStatus = 'Completed'
AND
GetDate() - OrderCompletedDate >= 60
)
iii) for client# 3 it could be a combination of different things (all orders in West Region that are in hold status for more than 10 days + all orders in Eastern Region that are in shipping and are expected to be delivered in the next 2 days + all completed orders for the rest of the regions).
(
OrderRegion = 'West'
AND
OrderStatus = 'Hold'
AND
GetDate() - OrderHoldDate >= 10
[code].....
I want to have a stored procedure that selects all data and dynamically attach the where condition at the end for filtering. This way I wouldn't have to worry about any additions/changes that are made to the selection criteria. I can build an interface for admins who can use the UI to maintain the selection criteria and not worry about any code changes to accommodate it. I would like to design a table that holds this criteria. At this point in time, I am thinking of using key value pairs (Column Name, Column Value) but I am not sure how to implement multiple logical operators.

Hello all!This might be a newbie question, and there might be something Im just not thinking of right now, but I have a set of values that I need to get the average of but only from the middle 90%. Example:11 <-From here1234456 <- To here.7I thought I could solve it by subqueries and do the following:Select (((Select sum top 5 order asc) + (Select sum top 5 order desc)) - sum total)/rows*0.9 which would give me what I want, but I realised that when aggregating I cant order the subqueries.This is for an application (that will run the query on a sql-server) that only takes one query (although subqueries should be fine), and thats why I have a problem, I cant build any views or things like that.I guess my question is very simple: How can I get a sum of the bottom 5 percent without sorting descending?
