MS SQL Server :: SELECT DISTINCT Type ORDER BY

How Do I Use Order By When I Use Select Distinct.

May 6, 2008

Hi
I have a query which returns some rows.. what happens if i use a select distinct instead of a select.. this is my sproc
DECLARE @Counter TABLE(
PlanId int,
FundId int,
ClientFundName varchar(110),
DisplayOrder int IDENTITY(1,1),
IsDefault bit,
IsPortfolioFundOnly bit
)
INSERT INTO @Counter
(
PlanId,
FundId,
ClientFundName,
IsDefault,
IsPortfolioFundOnly
)
SELECT
5923,
f.FundId,
d.FundName,
CASE WHEN d.FundDefault IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END,
CASE WHEN Lower(p.FundType) = 'modfundonly' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
FROM
PlanDetail d
INNER JOIN Statements..Fund f
ON d.CUSIP = f.CUSIP
OR
d.Ticker = f.Ticker
OR
d.Ticker = f.ClientFundId
OR
d.CUSIP = f.ClientFundId
-- Do an internal join on the PlanDetail table to get the value of the FundType to derive whether
--fund can only be chosen as part of a portfolio.
LEFT JOIN PlanDetail p
ON d.FundName = p.FundName
AND
d.PortfolioName = p.PortfolioName
WHERE
d.PlanNumber IS NOT NULL
AND
p.PortFundPercent IS NULL
GROUP BY
f.FundId,
d.FundName,
d.FundDefault,
--d.PlanNumber,
--d.Cusip,
-- d.Ticker,
--d.RowNumber,
p.FundType

ORDER BY
Min(d.PlanNumber),
Min(d.RowNumber)

any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

SELECT DISTINCT W/ORDER BY

Oct 6, 2005

I get the "ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified.

SELECT DISTINCT
pdm.Account,
pdm.Customer
FROM
dbo.Demands pdm LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.Tickets rct ON pdm.Account = rct.Account
WHERE
pdm.Code IN (66, 51)
ORDER BY

Is there any way to make the ORDER BY work in this case?

How Can I Use SELECT DISTINCT And Maintain The Original Order

Apr 26, 2007

Say I have a result set with two fields numbers and letters.

1 A3 A1 B2 B

The result set is ordered by the letters column. How can I select the distinct numbers from the result set but maintain the current order? When I tryselect distinct Number from MyResultSet

it will reorder the new result set by the Number field and return

123

However, I'd like maintain the Letter order and return

132

SELECT DISTINCT MyId Order By MyDate

Nov 3, 2003

I have the following records,
MyDate MyId
2003/10/25 2
2003/10/26 3
2003/10/26 1
2003/10/27 3
2003/10/28 2
2003/10/29 4

I want to get the most earlier date distinct records.
I try to use "SELECT DISTINCT MyID from Table;"
I expect to get Myid: 2,3,1,4
But the computer returns Myid:1,2,3,4

Is there a way to get the records using
"SELECT DISTINCT MyID from Table ORDER BY MyDate;"

Appreciate help......

SELECT DISTINCT And ORDER BY With Aliased Column

Feb 14, 2008

This query demonstrates a problem I have run across:

USE AdventureWorks

GO

-- This query works fine.

SELECT DISTINCT FirstName AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

-- This query also works fine.

SELECT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

-- This query returns error 145

SELECT DISTINCT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

The last query returns the error "ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified".
It will work if I change ORDER BY to use "Name1" instead of "FirstName", but in the situation I have at hand, the query is generated by third-party software and I don't have the ability to change it.
Can anyone explain why what's going on here? Oddly, this same query will work if I run it against SQL Server 2000.

How To Use ORDER BY Clause In An SELECT DISTINCT Sql Query When AS SINGLECOLUMN Is Defined?

Mar 22, 2008

Hi,
I wonder if its possible to perform a ORDER BY clause in an SELECT DISTINCT sql query whereby the AS SINGLECOLUMN is used. At present I am recieving error: ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified. My guess is that I cant perform the Order By clauses because it cant find the columns individually. It is essentail I get this to work somehow...
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance

Select DISTINCT On Multiple Columns Is Not Returning Distinct Rows?

Jul 6, 2007

Hi, I have the following script segment which is failing:

CREATE TABLE #LatLong (Latitude DECIMAL, Longitude DECIMAL, PRIMARY KEY (Latitude, Longitude))

INSERT INTO #LatLong SELECT DISTINCT Latitude, Longitude FROM RGCcache

When I run it I get the following error: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#LatLong__________7CE3D9D4'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#LatLong'."

Im not sure how this is failing as when I try creating another table with 2 decimal columns and repeated values, select distinct only returns distinct pairs of values.

The failure may be related to the fact that RGCcache has about 10 million rows, but I can't see why.

Any ideas?

Distinct With Order By

Mar 28, 2007

It gives me this error:
ORDER BY clause (TimeStamp) conflicts with Distinct

The sql statement is:

sql Code:

Original
- sql Code

SELECT DISTINCT division from table order by Stamp DESC

SELECT DISTINCT division FROM TABLE ORDER BY Stamp DESC

I've tried:

sql Code:

Original
- sql Code

SELECT DISTINCT division, Stamp FROM table ORDER BY Stamp DESC

SELECT DISTINCT division, Stamp FROM TABLE ORDER BY Stamp DESC

But this produces duplicate rows, which in this specific case is unacceptable.

Is there any way I can acheive what I want?
Stamp is a TimeStamp if you couldn't figure it out. I just want the last one entered, but all the last ones entered per division. . .

Order By Because Of Distinct

Feb 23, 2004

I have a strange situation (I think). Within a view (which explains why I use the top 100% --> to use an order by) I have this query:

select TOP 100 PERCENT *
from tbOfferDetails
where ofd_id = ofd_parent and ofd_fk_off_id = 100

This gives me the following results:
ofd_fk_off_id off_fk_class_id
100 2753
100 2753
100 2071
100 2753

Now I change the query to:

select distinct ofd_fk_off_id, ofd_fk_class_id from
(select TOP 100 PERCENT *
from tbOfferDetails
where ofd_id = ofd_parent and ofd_fk_off_id = 100
order by ofd_sequence ASC ) as tbOffers

This gives me the following results:
ofd_fk_off_id off_fk_class_id
100 2071
100 2753

In the execution plan, it says that a distinct order by is used on off_fk_class_id. My question is: why is this done? I want only a distinct and not an order by. So is there a way to change this (default?) behaviour.

Distinct & Dynamic ORDER BY

Hello,

I have a stored procedure with dynamic ORDER BY. I would like to use the DISTINCT too. Is it somehow possible?
Thank you

Default Sort Order - Open Table - Select Without Order By

Mar 27, 2008

Hi!

I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.

The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"

So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?

I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.

Peace.

Extract Distinct Information And Order The Results

Sep 24, 2007

Hi,

MSSQL 2000 T-SQL

I have a problem in extracting information pertaing to a key value and matching that key value to another transaction but the order is based on another value in the same row.

I've attached a sample of DB data below.

tran_nr ret_ref_no msg_type description
5111 12345 420 reversal
5112 12345 200 auths
5113 15236 200 auths
5114 46587 200 auths
5115 46587 420 reversal

Requirement using the above data is to extract data where the ret_ref_no is the same for more than one row but also check that the msg_type 420 happens before the 200. Is there a way of retrieving the information in this way using the tran_nr coloumn values? The tran_nr values is basically the serial number when the transaction is wrriten away to the DB.

I've managed only to retrive the 1st half of my query whereby the same ret_ref_nr is being used by more then one transaction. Still need to figure out the 2nd part where the msg_type of 420 happens before the 200.

SELECT * FROM SAMPLE
WHERE ret_ref_no in
(
SELECT ret_ref_no FROM SAMPLE
GROUP BY ret_ref_no HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
)

Results of query
5111 12345 420 reversal
5112 12345 200 auths
5114 46587 200 auths
5115 46587 420 reversal

If someone could assist with only retreiving the above results in bold to the query analyser i will really appreciate it.

Regards

Ntext Data Type Cannot Be Selected As DISTINCT

Hello,
When I am using DISTINCT in the SELECT clause for a table having a column of datatype "ntext" in SQL 2000 as well SQL 2005, it fails giving the error as "ntext data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT". This is coz
"The text, ntext, or image data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT."

But I am able to insert into a temporary table having a column whose datatype is nvarchar) using this SELECT clause in SQL 2000. Please advice me how this happens. If I am not worng, implicit conversion has happened. But this insert fails raising the same error in SQL 2005. Please help me to find the difference

Transact SQL :: Text Data Type Cannot Be Compared With Distinct

Oct 9, 2015

Field is not listed as text in any of the databases it is a varchar(255) - and that can be changed if that is what causes the issue.

But here is my syntax which produces the error Msg 421, Level 16, State 1, Procedure, Line 2

The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable.

DECLARE @c NVARCHAR(MAX)
WITH c1 AS (
SELECT [abcd] AS table_name
FROM [intranet].[dbo].[soccerfieldinfo]
where [abcd] IS NOT NULL
), c2 AS (
SELECT Row_Number() OVER (ORDER BY table_name) AS r

The Text Data Type Cannot Be Selected As DISTINCT Because It Is Not Comparable.

May 28, 2008

I'm having a problem building a query for an application I'm writing. Basically, there are a bunch of records in a table, and some of them may have the same identifier code. I only want one of each identifier code. The table looks like this:

Memo
---------
Msg_Identifier varchar(60)
Memo_ID int (pk)
Subject varchar(64)
Message text
Priority int
Deleted int

My query:

SELECT DISTINCT Msg_Identifier, Memo_ID, Subject, Message, Priority FROM Memo WHERE Deleted = '0'

When I run this query, I get "The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable."

I only want Msg_Identifier to be the distinct field, and it's obviously not set up as text. I've used SELECT DISTINCT in the past but I don't ever recall hitting an issue like this. What's the best way to do it?

Specify Order For Select Results, Order By: Help!

Nov 17, 2006

Lets say I have a table named [Leadership] and I want to select the field 'leadershipName' from the [Leadership] Table.

My query would look something like this:

Select leadershipName
From Leadership

Now, I would like to order the results of this query... but I don't want to simply order them by ASC or DESC. Instead, I need to order them as follows:

Executive Board Members, Delegates, Grievance Chairs, and Negotiators

My question: Can this be done through MS SQL or do I need to add a field to my [Leadership] table named 'leadershipImportance' or something as an integer to denote the level of importance of the position so that I can order on that value ASC or DESC?

Thanks,

Zoop

HOw To Order Fields Of Type Varchar?

Mar 22, 2000

I have a varchar field which holds IDs like (1, 3, 5, 19, 23) when I order it, i get it ordered in ASCII order like (1, 19, 23, 3, 5) rather than (1, 3, 5, 19, 23) Even if I convert it to int, I won't be able to order it.

is there any way I can order a varchar field numerically?

Order By User Defined Table Type

Dec 12, 2014

I've got a user defined table type called StringDictionaryTVP:

CREATE TYPE [dbo].[StringDictionaryTVP] AS TABLE(
[key] [varchar](500) NULL,
[value] [varchar](500) NULL
)

Ideally I would like to be able to have a # of columns and directions in this table like so:

DECLARE @OrderByClause StringDictionaryTVP

INSERT INTO @OrderByClause([key], [value])
values('gender','desc')
INSERT INTO @OrderByClause([key], [value])
values('name','asc')

Since our database can be a bit sizable, I'd also like to use Common Table Expressions so I can page through them fairly easy.So my standard cte is something like this:

DECLARE @PageIndex INT = 0
DECLARE @PageSize INT = 20
;WITH results_cte AS ( SELECT U.*, ROW_NUMBER() over ( ORDER BY name ) RowNum
from Users U)
SELECT * FROM results_cte
WHERE RowNum > @Offset AND RowNum <= @Offset + @PageSize

So where 'ORDER BY name' is I'd like to use the @OrderByClause in some sort of dynamic way. I've tried all kinds of stuff but even something like this doesn't get the actual column name I need

;WITH results_cte AS ( SELECT U.*, ROW_NUMBER() over ( ORDER BY (select top 1 [key] +' '+ [value] from @OrderByClause) ) RowNum
from Users U)

I may be chasing the wrong stick, but outside of dynamic sql, is something like this possible?

INSERT-SELECT Depending On The Select:ed Order

Aug 15, 2006

I'm doing a INSERT...SELECT where I'm dependent on the records SELECT:ed to be in a certain order. This order is enforced through a clustered index on that table - I can see that they are in the proper order by doing just the SELECT part.

However, when I do the INSERT, it doesn't work (nothing is inserted) - can the order of the records from the SELECT part be changed internally on their way to the INSERT part, so to speak?

Actually - it is a view that I'm inserting into, and there's an instead-of-insert trigger on it that does the actual insertions into the base table. I've added a "PRINT" statement to the trigger code and there's just ONE record printed (there should be millions).

Select Not Distinct?

Apr 8, 2008

Is their a way to select all items from a table that are not distinct? Meaning, I want to know which items in a column occur more than once.
Example:
Suppose we have a table with student names, ss# and address. I want to display only records where their is more than one studen with the same name. So for example their could be ten people with the name of "Mike" in a class?

Select Distinct

Feb 15, 2000

Hi! I have 4 tables and they have a common column (eg. regionid). These
4 tables have data overlapping with the others. Some data exist in a table
but not on the others. What I want to do is to do a select that will display
all distinct regionid from these tables. It should be total of all the tables but will suppress any duplicates with the others.

Note that UNION is working but I can't use that. Why ? because UNION is not supported or maybe not working properly with RDB database. I'm doing an appliaction for heterogenous datasource.

Any tips, hints or info will be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Select Distinct Help?

Jan 19, 2005

Can you have "Select Distinct" in Union Query,because that is what I am trying to do and this is the error message I get.

"The text, ntext, or image data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT."

I would need to do that because i have duplicate records,because these records are getting written into the db when templates are generated and sometimes if they double click it generates two and writes that many results as well, so that is why I was thinking that select distinct would solve my problem.

Thanks for your help

Select Distinct

Oct 26, 2006

Hi,

I wonder if anyone here can shed some light on why the query below produces duplicate EmailAddress values even though we specify the DISTINCT clause.

SELECT DISTINCT(EmailAddress) SubscriberID, FirstName, Surname, SubscriberID
FROM TestMailingList
ORDER BY EmailAddress

Thanks.

Help With A Distinct Select?

May 10, 2006

Hi,

I am new to this forum so hello to everyone!

I need some help getting unique records from a query, I have a large amount of nested selects and i want to only display distinct records, I have a unique identifier (party ID) but the code was written by someone else (who is on holiday!) and i need to work out where to insert the disctinct select (if at all? - open to a better way?) this query should pull back records and then the results are pasted in to excel, however would a DTS solve the issue with duplicates??

Any help more than appreciated!

Heres the code...

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.negative_surplus_report

AS

0) AS Income, ISNULL
