Returning The Most Rated Record
Mar 7, 2008
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetMostRatedRecipe
(
@CurrentDate datetime
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT *
FROM Recipe
WHERE TotalRating =
(SELECT MAX(TotalRating)FROM Recipe) AND published = 1 AND ReleaseDate <= @CurrentDate AND ExpireDate > @CurrentDate
This doesn't work good when the recipe having max total rating is not published & expired. I guess I need to first filter the recipes which are published & unexpired and then select the recipe having max total rating. But I don't know how to do that. Could anyone of you please help me doing this ?

Hello everyone,I'm trying to solve this problem but can't seem to figure out how tostart. I would like to create a rating system where people can vote(1-5 stars) on randomly displayed items. The randomly displayed itemsshould either have very high ratings OR a very low number of ratings.For example, only return items in the top 20th percentile *OR* itemswith fewer than 5 votes.The question is, how would I write an SQL query to return such aresult? Is it even possible? Should this be handled by my applicationrather than the database?For simplicity, let's assume I have the following table:tbl_items-----------------item_iditem_nameavg_ratingnum_votes-----------------Any help or pointers in the right direction would be greatlyappreciated. My apologies in advance if the solution is obvious and Iam clearly missing the point ;-)

when this query is run it returns the max value for each of the activity types eg. phone calls, emails etc.
what i want to achieve is for it to return only one record. whichever is more recent. but it only has to be either a phone call or an email.
SELECT regardingobjectidname, MAX(actualend) AS Last_Contacted_On, activitytypecodename, owneridname
FROM FilteredActivityPointer AS A
WHERE (statecodename = 'completed') AND (activitytypecodename IN (@activitytypes))
GROUP BY regardingobjectidname, activitytypecodename, owneridname

I am having problems with a SQL query.
Table has 10 fields and I need to return them all. The three most importaint, at least for the filter I need are:
id, studentid, date, canceled.
I need to return the last max(date) grater than or equal to @dateparam which is not canceled for each studentid
I have worked out some solutions but am not happy with them. Specially woried about performance when the table grows. I am expecting in full production a table growth of about 3 million records per month.
what would be grate is if there where a way of returning a the coresponding id like in:
select studentid, max(date), related(id) as ids
from tablea
where canceled=0
group by studentid
then I could do:
Select *
from tablea inner join (select studentid, max(date), related(id) as ids
from tablea a
where canceled=0
group by studentid
) b on (a.id=b.ids)

There are loads of postings on the net about this problem but none I have found explain the cause.
Whenever returning a value from a TableAdapter.Insert method followed by a SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() , the value returned is always 1. I have run the same select in SQL management studion and the correct value is returned but with a 1 showing in the column selector (just to the left of the first column. The column selector column is not data column. This must be the reason that issuing a SELECT after an INSERT does not work when using a TableAdapter isert method.
Has anyone come across the solution for this issue?
Thanks

I am storing product information in a SQL Server database table; the product information has no unique fields so I have created an Identity field called ‘uid’. Is there a way of querying the table to find out what value will be given to the next ‘uid’ field before the next record is written to the table? I need to use this as a FK in other tables.

I need to do something sort of like the DESCRIBE function in MySQL. I need to return the table structure, AND the first row from each column sort of as an example of the data in each column.
then i would just need to run this query on each of my tables...
any ideas?

Ok, this thing is returning the last record twice. If I have only one record it returns it twice, multiple records gives me the last one twice. I am sure some dumb pilot error is involved, HELP!

I have a strange situation with an select. I've noticed that when I select top 100, a record is not returning from the database, but when doing top 101 the record appears on position 41.
The query is like this:
select top 100 GroupId, count(HouseId)
from House h
group by h.GroupId
order by max([DateCreated]) desc
From all discussions about top 100 vs top 101 I've noticed that everybody is saying that top 101 is using another algorithm and we can have a speed problem, but my problem is not about this. With top 100 I'm missing a record that should appear at index 41.

I have SQL query/dual sub-query in MS Access that is returning data from the left side of the query FROM correctly, but is only returning one record from the right side of the query FROM. Furthermore, it repeats the display of the one record and it repeats the entire results set with a different one record each time until all the records have been displayed. I expect that problems described as “Furthermore” will not exist by fixing the one record issue. I have tried using all the join types available in MS Access, but none change the result.
The desired output is:
Yellow Blue
11/23/201311/19/2013
11/19/210310/01/2012
10/01/210210/08/2010
10/08/201012/14/2007
The actual output is:
Yellow Blue
11/23/201311/19/2013
11/19/210311/19/2013
10/01/210211/19/2013

10/01/210210/01/2102
10/08/201010/01/2102
The same pattern is repeated 2 more times with Blue values of 10/08/2010 and then 12/14/2007.
Here is the SQL:

Hi,In the process of localizing the 'regions' table, we added three newtables. The localized data will be stored in the TokenKeys andTokenValues tables. It would be easier if we did away with theTokeyKeys/TokenValues tables and just added a localeid in the regionstable, but this is the desired schema by the client. Here's theschema:Table: regionsid nameabbreviation1 United StatesUSTable: localesid locale1 en_US2 fr_CATable: TokenKeysid key1 db.regions.name2 db.regions.abbreviationTable: TokenValuesid keyid valuelocaleid1 1 Etas Unis22 2 EU2The old sql was simply this:select name, abbreviation from regionswhich returns:United States, USBut the new sql needs to link in the localized data from the tokeykeysand tokenvalues tables using the localeid... Im trying to figure outwhat the sql statement would look like to return this:Etats Unis, EU (This is supposed to be the French version)My confusion is we are trying to return multiple column values fromthe same column (TokenValues.value) and make them act as separatecolumns in the same record, like it was with the original.Thanks

i recently found a little error in a stored procedure that was included in a project handed over to me....
the sp was rather simple. it just inserted a record into a table and returned the identity and the timestamp as follows
IF @@ERROR>0
BEGIN
SELECT @int_InterventionID = 0
RETURN @@ERROR
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT @int_InterventionIDReturned = MAX(InterventionID) FROM tblIntervention
SELECT @ts_TimestampReturned = [Timestamp] FROM tblIntervention WHERE InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned
SELECT @int_InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned, @ts_Timestamp = @ts_TimestampReturned
RETURN 0
END
i figured that it should be using @@Identity for the interventionIdentity rather than max(InterventionID)
so i changed to...
IF @@ERROR>0
BEGIN
SELECT @int_InterventionID = 0
RETURN @@ERROR
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT @int_InterventionIDReturned = @@IDENTITY
SELECT @ts_TimestampReturned = [Timestamp] FROM tblIntervention WHERE InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned
SELECT @int_InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned, @ts_Timestamp = @ts_TimestampReturned
RETURN 0
END
it returns the @int_InterventionIDReturned but the timestamp now comes back as null??? why??
how can i ensure that i always get the timestamp of the record it has just inserted
any help greatly appreciated,
Cheers,
Craig

We have an archive table which keeps each instance of a sales order that was archived under a "Verion No" field. Each time the sales order is archived it is entered into the archive tables (Sales Header Archive, Sales Line Archive). What I am trying to do is write a query to return all sales orders but only the most recent archived version.
For example this table layout is similar to what I am working with. Version No, Order No and Customer No. are the keys between the Header and Line tables, Customer Name column in the output is from only the Sales Header Archive table
SALES LINE ARCHIVE TABLE
Version No - Order No. - Customer No -----> (other columns)
1 s-5 1000
2 s-5 1000
1 s-6 2000
1 s-7 3000
2 s-7 3000
3 s-7 3000
1 s-8 4000
1 s-9 2000
2 s-9 2000
Here is what I need to output to show:
RESULTS OF JOINED TABLES
Version No - Order No - Customer No - Customer Name ---> (other columns)
2 s-5 1000 Something, Inc.
1 s-6 2000 Acme
3 s-7 3000 Company, LLC
1 s-8 4000 Blah & Associates
2 s-9 2000 Acme
It should return the last Version No of each Sales order.
Does that make sense? It is something probably easy... But, I've spent two days using multiples and multiples of different ways, that just aren't working: I'm about to dropkick my server cabinet...

Following is the query that I'm running:
create table a (id int, name varchar(10));
create table b(id int, sal int);
insert into a values(1,'John'),(1,'ken'),(2,'paul');
insert into b values(1,400),(1,500);
select *
from a
cross apply( select max(sal) as sal from b where b.id = a.id)b;
Below is the result for the same:
idname sal
1John500
1ken500
2paulNULL
Now I'm not sure why the record with ID 2 is coming using CROSS APPLY, shouldn't it be avoided in case of CROSS APPLY and only displayed when using OUTER APPLY.
One thing that I noticed was that if you remove the Aggregate function MAX then the record with ID 2 is not shown in the output. I'm running this query on SQL Server 2012.

If a Select is done on a column whose data type is nvarchar(16) and contains only numerals (UPC numbers) the select does not return the record.
1. Query with numerals in nvarchar column works as long as multiple records are returned (LIKE '012%')
2. Numeric (INT only one tested) columns works as expected
3. String columns with alpha data works as expected
4. Problem only exist when running in Device Emulator and/or actual device.
5. Same test on desktop app runs as expected.
6. Windows Mobile 6, Vista Ultimate
7. Same results when when connection to device from SSMS
8. SQL Servers comes on

string _sql = "SELECT * FROM Product where RegDescr='0123456' ";
// works correctly
string _sql = "SELECT * FROM PRODUCT where ProdNum = 6523 ";
// works correctly *** as long as multiple records are returned

I am opening a simple command against a view which joins 2 tables, so that I can return a column which is defined as a tinyint in one of the tables. The SELECT looks like this:
SELECT TreatmentStatus FROM vwReferralWithAdmissionDischarge WHERE ClientNumber = 138238 AND CaseNumber = 1 AND ProviderNumber = 89
The TreatmentStatus column is a tinyint. When I execute that above SQL SELECT statement in SQL Server Management Studio (I am using SQL Server 2005) I get a value of 2. But when I execute the same SQL SELECT statement as a part of a SqlDataReader and SqlCommand, I get a return data type of integer and a value of 1.
Why?

BEGIN
EXEC @ActionID = ActionInsert '', @PackageID, @AnotherID, 0, ''
END
SET NOCOUNT OFF
SELECT Something

Joins…..
Where Something = Something
now, ActionInsert returns a Value, and has a SELECT @ActionID at the end of the stored procedure.
What's happening, if that 2nd line that I pasted gets called, 2 result sets are being returned. How can I modify this SToredProcedure to stop returning the result set from ActionINsert?

Hi
I have a table with a user column and other columns. User column id the primary key.
I want to create a copy of the record where the user="user1" and insert that copy in the same table in a new created record. But I want the new record to have a value of "user2" in the user column instead of "user1" since it's a primary key

Hey all!
Sorry for the less then descriptive post title but I didn't find a better way to describe it. I'm developing an app in the express editions of VB and SQLserver. The application is a task/resource scheduler. The main form will have a datepicker or weekly overview and show all tasks scheduled per day. The problem is, I've got one or more people assigned to tasks and I wonder what's the best way to design this. Personally, I'd go for one Task table, a People table and a table that provides a link between them (several record per task, one for each person assigned linking TaskID and PplID). However, I don't see a nice way of showing this data to the end user, allowing him to edit/add etc on ONE screen.
To fix that the only way I see is just add columns to the Task table for every person with select boxes. This way everything can be done on one simple screen. This obviously does present some future issues.
On top of this, which people are available on a day varies and there should be an option to allow a user to set who is available on a specific day. Which would lead me to my first idea and add another table that would provide this. but then I'm having design issues again for the form.
I'm kinda stuck atm, can anyone shed some light on this. I'm sure there is an elegant way of doing this but I'm failing at finding it.
Thanks in advance,
Johan

Hi,
We're running a Sage CRM install with a SQL Server 2000 database at the back end. We're using the Sage web services API for updating data and a JDBC connection to retrieve data as it's so much quicker.
If I retrieve a record using the JDBC connection and then try and update the same record through the web services, the query times out as if the record is locked for updates. Has anyone experienced anything similar or know what I'm doing wrong? If I just use DriverManager.getConnection() to establish the connection instead of the datasource, and then continue with the same code I don't get these record locking problems. Please find more details below.
Thanks,
Sarah
The JDBC provider for the datasource is a WebSphere embedded ConnectJDBC for SQL Server DataSource, using an implementation type of 'connection pool datasource'. We are using a container managed J2C authentication alias for logging on.
This is running on a Websphere Application Server v6.1.
Code snippet - getting the record thru JDBC:
DataSource wsDataSource = serviceLocator.getDataSource("jdbc/dsSQLServer");
Connection wsCon = wsDataSource.getConnection();
// wsCon.setAutoCommit(false); //have tried with and without this flag - same results
Statements stmt = wsCon.createStatement();
String sql = "SELECT * FROM Person where personID = 12345";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
if(rs.next()){
System.out.println(rs.getString("lastName"));
}
if (rs != null){
rs.close();
}
if (stmt != null) {
stmt.close();
}
if (wsCon != null) {
wsCon.close();
}

I am attempting to create a multi-record file (as described in my last thread) and have found the following set of instructions very helpful:
http://vsteamsystemcentral.com/cs21/blogs/steve_fibich/archive/2007/09/25/multi-record-formated-flat-file-with-ssis.aspx
I have been able to create a sample file with two of my record types.
I now need to build on this further, because I have 9 record types in total that need to be extracted to a single flat file.
does anyone have any ideas how I might extend the example above to include more record types or know of another means of achieving this?
Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

Hello. I have a database with a record that has two columns locked. descrip1 and descrip2. they are both nvarchar(max) columns. These are the only two columns of the record that remain locked. I am certain no user is accessing the record. I have even moved a backup of the database to my testing computer and the lock still exists. How do I remove the lock from these two columns on that particular record.
I can edit these two columns on other records. I have researched "Unlock" on MSDN but it doesn't seem to apply to t-sql. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks. Gary.
