SELECT INTO OUTFILE?
May 3, 2006Hi,
how do I redirect the output from a SELECT to a text-file, or Excel-file?
It is possible in MySQL, but what about Transact-SQL?
Thanks

Select Into Outfile: Wrong Field Length
Oct 29, 2005Hi,
I have to export data from a database in a special form (the customer wants it this way): every record in one line, and all fields in a large string. Thus, only by convendion it is defined the first seven characters being the central number, the next fivr characters the number of this spare part type, the following 30 the description, and so on...
Just at the end of every record has to be CF-LF.
all works well so far by with this code (in PHP) -
except one thing - see details below the code snippet):
$q1 = "SELECT dirc_matdata.* FROM dirc_vorgang, dirc_matdata ";
$q2 = "WHERE dirc_vorgang.rep_out> '".$anf_dat."'";
$q3 = "AND dirc_vorgang.rep_out < '".$end_dat."'";
$q4 = "AND dirc_matdaten.auftrags_nr = dirc_vorgang.auftrags_nr";
$q5 = "INTO outfile '".$drive.":/matdata.dat'";
$q6 = "FIELDS TERMINATED BY '' LINES TERMINATED BY '
';";
$query = $q1.' '.$q2.' '.$q3.' '.$q4.' '.$q5.' '.$q6;
The INT (integer) fields appear in the (plain text) output file with wrong field lengths. Although I had set the first field (i.e. the number of this type ofparts) to a length of 5, this field appears in the outfile being 10 characters long -- the maximum length of a normal INT type field (and twice as long as it should be).
Or (when set to filed type "MEDIUMINT"), it appears in the length of 8 characters only. But I need this data exactly 5 characters long in this application.
BIG QUESTION: How can I make mySQL (Ver. 4.1) write this fields into the outfile with their correct length as defined in the database structure?
Is this flaw already known in the community?
Is there any sort of "workaround"?
Thank you for every hint!

I have two mult-value parameters in my report. Both of them working with selecting one or more values. But, when I test using "(Select All)" values for both parameters , only one parameter works. The "available values" for these two parameters are both from the data set.

SELECT-Using Correlated Subqueries: Just Name In Results && 0 Row Affected In One Of MSDN2 SELECT Examples

Multiple Tables Select Performance - SQL 2005 - Should It Take 90 Seconds For A Select?
Dec 4, 2007I have a problem where my users complain that a select statement takes too long, at 90 seconds, to read 120 records out of a database.
The select statement reads from 9 tables three of which contain 1000000 records, the others contain between 100 and 250000 records.
I have checked that each column in the joins are indexed - they are (but some of them are clustered indexes, not unclustered).
I have run the SQL Profiler trace from the run of the query through the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor". That just suggested two statistics items which I added (no benefit) and two indexes for tables that are not involved at all in the query (I didn't add these).
I also ran the query through the Query window in SSMS with "Include Actual Execution Plan" enabled. This showed that all the execution time was being taken up by searches of the clustered indexes.
I have tried running the select with just three tables involved, and it completes fast. I added a fourth and it took 7 seconds. However there was no WHERE clause for the fourth table, so I got a cartesian product which might have explained the problem.
So my question is: Is it normal for such a type of read query to take 90 seconds to complete?
Is there anything I could do to speed it up.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

SELECT Then DELETE Versus Extra Clause In SELECT
Nov 29, 2007Far below (in section "original 3 steps"), you see the following:1. a temp table is created2. some data is inserted into this table3. some of the inserted data is removed based on a join with the sametable that the original select was made fromIn my opinion, there is no way that the join could produce more rowsthan were originally retrieved from viewD. Hence, we could get rid ofthe DELETE step by simply changing the query to be:INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )AND INMESS NOT LIKE '2__' ---- the added line===== original 3 steps (mentioned above) =====CREATE TABLE #details (rec_id UNIQUEIDENTIFIER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,orig VARCHAR(35) NULL,bene VARCHAR(35) NULL,orig_corr TINYINT NULL,bene_corr TINYINT NULL)INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )DELETE dFROM #details dJOIN viewD v ON ( d.rec_id = v.rec_id )WHERE INMESS LIKE '2__'

(Select All) In Multi-select Enabled Drop Down Parameters
Feb 27, 2008There are several parameters on a report. One of the parameter is a multi-select enabled parameter and I suppressed the value "All" showing as one of the item in the drop down list, simply by filter out the [bha].[bha].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL to 1, as "(Select All)" is pre-assigned to the drop list when multi-select is enabled and it is confusing to show "(Select All)" and "All" in the drop list. However I have another report which is linked to this report and the value which is required to pass to this report for this parameter is "All". Can I pass the "Select All" as a parameter from the other report? If so, how? Thanks.

INSERT-SELECT Depending On The Select:ed Order
Aug 15, 2006I'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 Rowguidcol Vs. SELECT &<actual Name&>
Apr 11, 2008I understand that I can do this is SQL Server:
CREATE TABLE dbo.test1 (
Col1 int IDENTITY,
ColGUID uniqueidentifier rowguidcol NOT NULL CONSTRAINT DF_test1_ColGUID DEFAULT NEWSEQUENTIALID()
)
INSERT INTO dbo.test1 DEFAULT VALUES
SELECT rowguidcol FROM dbo.test1
SELECT ColGUID FROM dbo.test1
I get this result:
ColGUID
------------------------------------
ED2D1EF0-0408-DD11-A8EB-001AA0D389DB
ColGUID
------------------------------------
ED2D1EF0-0408-DD11-A8EB-001AA0D389DB
Here's the question: Is there any performance difference between using the actual column name and "rowguidcol"?
I would like to be able to script a trigger that uses the rowguidcol column. If I could use rowguidcol instead of the actual column name, I would not have to hard-code the column name in the trigger.
Thanks,
Rob

So far I have come up with the following. My main issue is linking the subquery properly back to the main query. how to count in the sub-query and have the result placed within the groups results in the main query.
