Add A Minus To Two Column Values If Criteria Met

Hi I was hoping you could help,
I have a query that pulls back a customers account statement, however the credits are coming back as positives as well, So I am getting wrong figures, how can I correct the code below so that VAT, Goods Value and Total are negative if the data in column "trans reference" begins with a C for example C123456789 a invoice would be 123456789
Thanks
Code Snippet
SELECT
SLCUSA as [Compny Number],

Transact SQL :: Does Server Support MINUS Keyword
Mar 22, 2006I have two tables CarType & Cars. Table CarType has a column CarTypeId which is the primary key (int, identity). Table Cars includes a column CarTypeId (int) which is a foreign key into the CarType table.Now I am trying to build a list of all those CarTypeId entries (from the CarType table) for which there are no Cars (i.e. there is no corresponding entry in the Cars table).I read that there is an SQL "MINUS" keyword that you can use like this:
SELECT CarTypeId FROM CarTypeMINUSSELECT CarTypeId FROM Cars..So if CarType contains records with the keys {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and Cars contains records with the foreign keys {2, 4} (using set notation), your result should be the set {1, 3, 5}. (Note: I have tried alternate versions of this where I selected the DISTINCT CarTypeId entries from Cars, and where I sorted them; results same in both cases).I tried it in SQL Server 2005 Express. The result is just {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
Is the MINUS capability supported by SQL Server? I know that there are all sorts of different SQL dialects & implementations and that SQL has evolved & transmutated over the years; perhaps they opted to leave this out of SQL Server..
Here's a reference to the website where I initially found out about MINUS: [URL] ....

Data Access :: Order By And Minus In Char Fields
Apr 29, 2015I have a test query that i have ordered by the expected result order.
select t from (
select cast('1' as nvarchar(20)) as t
union all select '1---qa'
union all select '1q'
union all select '1q1'
union all select '1qz'
[Code] ....
and the question is... why is minus character (at 3rd line in '1---qa' string) ignored by "order by" clause? That row is put after '1q1' and not after '1'.
When you replace '-' with '+' or any other special char it works as expected but not with '-'. It is just ignored no matter if there is one or more of them.
Don't mind local chars like čž, they are for testing purposes with collate (thus commented) and with bin collation that is not doing proper sorting but minus order is ok in that case.
Tested on SQL 2008 R2 and SQL express 2012, database collation is 'Croatian_CI_AS'.
Select Max Value Of One Field For Value Of Other Field(s)
Feb 29, 2008I would like to query a table for a max value of one field for a distinct combination of two other fields. Let's call these fields RowID, ObjectID, and ObjectType. RowID is an auto-increment field, so for each distinct combination of ObjectID and ObjectType, there will be many values of RowID. To visualize an example:
RowID, ObjectID, ObjectType
1 , 1 , 1
2 , 1 , 2
3 , 1 , 3
4 , 1 , 1
5 , 1 , 2
6 , 1 , 3
Of these rows, I would only want 4, 5, and 6 (max values for distinct combination of ObjectID and ObjectType).
I hope I explained this clearly. I would imagine I'd need to use some form of nested query, but nothing I have tried so far has worked. I am using SQL 2005.
Thanks!
Stored Procedure:calculating Minus Dependent On Type With Group By
Aug 6, 2004Hi i am trying to get the following result:
CALCULATE THE CURRENT NUMBER OF SHARES on base of number of shares bought and number of shares sold
so the logic is
int total
if transactiontype is "buy", total = total + amount bought
if transactiontype is sell, total = total-amount sold
plus must be grouped by share
base data are stored in 1 table as
share name transaction type share amount
tesco buy 200
tesco sell 50
sounds rather easy does it not?
well sql syntax must be very foreign to me as i do not manage it
I tried a few options:
1 to write a database function as above and then call it from sproc
but i need to use group by share name or id so it calculates for each share and it will not let me to use function in select with group by
2 i tried to use if within sproc but i get complain incorrect syntax (I use MSDE database accessed via Visual) - I think it suppose to be possible but it throws me out with the most simple if or = is there some special syntax?
3 I created 2 views: 1 view: all sold shares, 2nd view: all bought shares and their bought/sold quantities
as in
select share name, sum(sharequantity)
where transaction = sell
from table
group by share name
and the same for purchases
then I did union of these 2 views with boughtquantity - soldquantity what worked but it only showed me shares which were sold, if share was never sold it was not shown I guess due to union
so I am still stuck!

Any solutions here?

SQL Insert With Select And Specify Value For A Field
Oct 24, 2007Hi,
Can someone tell me if it is possible to do an SQL insert with a select (to copy specific records) query and specify the value for a specific field to insert in the new records instead of using the value in the field in the select statement.
If so can you provide me with a simple example.
Cheers
Mark :)

Select Same Field Twice For Different Criteria
Mar 11, 2005I need a little insight on how to select the same field from the same table, but for different criteria.
here are example tables...
Categories
CATSUBCATNAME
10MainTitle
11SubTitle #1
12SubTitle #2
20Section
21Section #1
DataTable
CATSUBCATINFO
11Detail Information for subtitle #1
12Detail information for subtitle #2
desired result would be:
MainTitle, SubTitle #1, Detail Information for subtitle #1
MainTitle, SubTitle #2, Detail Information for subtitle #2
Select c1.Name, c2.Name, d.info
from DataTable d, Categories c1, Categories c2
where c1.CAT = d.CAT
and c2.CAT = d.CAT
and c2.SUBCAT = d.SUBCAT
Select From Two Different Field Columns.
May 22, 2006OK, i'm sure this is an easy one, but can't seem to figure it out. Basically need to search against two database columns (fields) to see if either contain the work "test". Here is an example of the statement but of course dosn't work correctly:
SELECT * FROM tbl_db WHERE skills LIKE 'test' AND title LIKE 'test'
Please note the AND is incorrect.
What i need to accomplish:
if one record contains 'test' in its skills field then SELECT it.
if one record contains 'test' in the title field the SELECT it.
I need to make sure that is 'test' is in both skills and title fields then only display once.
Thanks,
