SELECT Statement With 2 Columns Originating From The Same Fields
Jul 19, 2006
Hello,
I've been busy all night searching and reading trying to figure out how I can do the following.
I have a table that tracks user IDs in multiple fields. When I select records from this table I need a way to resolve those ID fields back into user names by referencing the users table. SQL statement thus far...
SELECT A.Username as NameA, B.Username As NameB, FROM theTable, Users As A, Users As B WHERE theTable.UserIDA ???
How do I resolve theTable.UserIDA and theTable.UserIDB back to Users.Username so that the records returned fill the fields NameA and NameB?

The data I have has a 1 in for each Yes answer and a 2 for each no answer. I just want the select statement to show the word yes when there's a 1 and the word no when there's a 2. I don't need to update or change the database. Could anyone lead me in the right direction here? Thanks
Hi,Is there a way to exclude fields in a query other than just includingthe ones you want. If there are 20 fields and you want to see all but3, it would be a lot easier to exclude the 3.Thanks
I thought this was working, but apparently it was not. I was wondering how I would create a SELECT Statement for values that are blank (Equal to ""). I really could have swore that this was working, but I guess it wasn't.
// create an open the connection OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(conString); OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(); command = conn.CreateCommand();
// create the DataSet DataSet ds = new DataSet();
// run the query command.CommandText = "SELECT ID AS [#], Company AS [Company], FName AS [First Name], LName AS [Last Name], Type AS [Type] FROM Table1 WHERE Tags = @P0;"; OleDbDataAdapter adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(); adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(command); command.Parameters.Add("@P0", OleDbType.VarChar).Value = ""; adapter.Fill(ds);
// close the connection conn.Close();
bindingSource1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
DataGridView.DataSource = bindingSource1;
// set the size of the dataGridView Columns this.DataGridView.Columns[0].Visible = false; this.DataGridView.Columns[1].Width = 234; this.DataGridView.Columns[2].Width = 50; this.DataGridView.Columns[3].Width = 50; this.DataGridView.Columns[4].Width = 75;
//Sort on the Title Column DataGridViewColumn sortColumn = DataGridView.Columns[1]; ListSortDirection direction; direction = ListSortDirection.Ascending; DataGridView.Sort(sortColumn, direction);
//Set the Selected Property of the First Row to False DataGridView.Rows[0].Selected = false; } catch { }
Is it possible to combine fields and text in a select statement? In a dropDownList I want to show a combination of two different fields, and have the value of the selected item come from a third field. So, I thought I could maybe do something like this: SELECT DISTINCT GRP AS GroupName, "Year: " + YEAR + "Grade: " + GRD AS ShowMe FROM GE_Data WHERE (DIST = @DIST)
I hoped that would take the values in YEAR and GRD and concatenate them with the other text. Then my dropDownList could show the ShowMe value and have the GroupName as the value it passes on. However, when I test this in the VS Query Builder, it says that Year and Grade are unknown column names and changes the double-quotes to square brackets. If this is possible, or there's a better way to do it, I'd love some more info. Thanks! -Mathminded
Dear All I am trying to populate an OledbDatareader for binding to a ASP datagrid.
For this I use select statement to display combined fields in a datagrid cell. Eg. Select (Field1+ '<br/>' + Field2 + '<br/>' + Field 3) As Address .. and so on. But the problem is if any of the three field is null the combined field 'Address' returns as Null. Please help me to overcome this problem.
Hi to allI wish to be able to have a standard select statement which hasadditional fields added to it at run-time based on suppliedparameter(s).iedeclare @theTest1 nvarchar(10)set @theTest1='TRUE'declare @theTest2 nvarchar(10)set @theTest2='TRUE'selectp_full_nameif @theTest1='TRUE'BEGINother field1,ENDif @theTest2='TRUE'BEGINother field2ENDfrom dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20I do not wish to use an IF statement to test the parameter for acondition and then repeat the entire select statement particularly asit is a UNIONed query for three different statementiedeclare @theTest1 nvarchar(10)set @theTest1='TRUE'declare @theTest2 nvarchar(10)set @theTest2='TRUE'if @theTest1='TRUE' AND @theTest2='TRUE'BEGINselectp_full_name,other field1,other field2from dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20ENDif @theTest1='TRUE' AND @theTest2='FALSE'BEGINselectp_full_name,other field1from dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20END......if @theTest<>'TRUE'BEGINselectp_full_namefrom dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20ENDMake sense? So the select is standard in the most part but with smallvariations depending on the user's choice. I want to avoid risk ofbreakage by having only one spot that the FROM, JOIN and WHEREstatements need to be defined.The query will end up being used in an XML template query.Any help would be much appreciatedRegardsGIS Analyst
Maybe its a friday, but I can't figure out how to total the returned results so I just get a sum of the 'Items' and 'Total'. I thought it was Compute but that did not work!
I'm pulling data from 2 tables, Order and Order_Item and what Im trying to achieve is to total up how many items were sold and the total. Each one of the rows below are for each order.
I must be doing something wrong, can anyone help?
SELECTsum(Order_Item.Quantity) as Items, sum(Order_Item.Price*Order_Item.Quantity)-[Order].Discount as Total FROM[Order] JOINOrder_Item ON Order_Item.[OrderID] = [Order].[ID] GROUP BY[Order].[ID], [Order].OrderRef, [Order].CustomerID, [Order].ReceivedDate, [Order].Postage, [Order].Discount ORDER BY [Order].ReceivedDate DESC
Items Total ==== ===== 114.9900 113.5920 333.6750 227.1840 567.9600
I am retrieving some data from Invoices, Customers and Companies tables as follows, but would like to make the customerName and the Companies.Name as single column such Name and similarly for customerID/companyID and customerCode/companyCode.

I always know that the ReportPackId and SupplierPartyIdentifier will be identical for all rows because of the Where condition, and therefore I want all AdditionalPartyIdentifiers to be in columns instead of a new row. Is this possible?
I'm wondering if there is a single statement I can write to pull my data. Let's say my Order table has one field for userId and one field for supervisorId (among other fields) both of which are foreign keys into the Users table where their name, address, etc. are stored. What I'd like to do is to pull all the rows from Order and have a join that pulls the user name and supervisor name from the User table all in one go. Right now I pull all the Orders with just user name joined, and then go back over the objects to add the supervisor name as a separate query.
The reason I'd like to do this is to simplify the objects I'm passing to the GridView by doing a single fetch instead of multiples. I'm using SQL Server, .NET 2.0 and VS.NET 2005.
Hi all,Is this at all possible? In the following query I have mutiple columns in my SELECT statement that each have their own alias. Is it possible that I can use just one Alias for all these columns (such as Address), and if so how is it done?SELECT RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.house_no_flat, '')) as [Target - Flat No.], LOWER(RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.building, ''))) as [Target - Building], LOWER(RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.road_street, ''))) as [Target - Street], LOWER(RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.district, ''))) as [Target - District], LOWER(RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.town, ''))) as [Target - Town], LOWER(RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.county, ''))) as [Target - County], RTRIM(ISNULL(ta.postcode, '')) as [Target - PostCode]ThanksTryst

I have built an Advanced Search page which allows users to select which columns to return (via checkbox) and to enter search criteria for any of the selected columns (into textboxes). I build the SQL statement from the properties of the controls. Works great. My problem is getting my gridview control to play nicely. At first I used a SqlDataReader and bound the gridview to it, thus giving me the ability to run new SQL statements through it (with different columns each time). Worked nicely. But, per Microsoft, sorting can only be done if the gridview is bound to a datasource control like the SqlDataSource. So I wrote the code to handle sorting. No big deal; worked nicely. But I could not adjust the column widths programmatically unless bound to a datasource control like the SqlDataSource. And could not figure out a work around. So, I decided to use the SqlDataSource. Works great. Except, I cannot figure out how to run a new SELECT statement through the SQLDataSource and have the gridview respond accordingly. If I try to return anything other than the exact same columns defined declaratively in the html, it pukes. But I need to be able to return a new selection of columns each time. For example, first time through the user selects columns 1,2,3,4 – the gridview should show those 4 columns. The second time the user selects columns 2,5,7 – the gridview should those 3 columns (and ONLY those 3 columns). Plus support selection and sorting. I am desperate on this. I've burned 2.5 days researching and testing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Brad
I have this update statement I am trying to use, to update a table. My problem is if there is no data in the select statement, it still adds number to the columns. How can I have this update statement work to put blank value in if there are no counts?

I am currently trying to write a query that pulls a summation of item specific data from sales orders. For simplicity's sake, the column structure can be something like the following...
Item#, PoundsDuringWeekNumber (this would be the current week number out of the 52 weeks in a year and the pounds of the item during that week)
However, those are not going to be the only 2 columns. The idea of the query is that the user would be able to provide the query a date range (say 2 months) and the columns would then morph into the following...
Item#, PoundsDuringWeekNumber (current), PoundsDuringWeekNumber(current - 1), PoundsDuringWeekNumber (current - 2), etc. etc. PoundsDuringWeekNumber(current - 8)
Initial ideas where to create a function to execute the summation of the pounds during the date range of the week in question and execute it across the columns, but with the indeterminable number of columns, the query would not know how many times to execute the function.
I have a table that holds notes for item's. I'm want to do a select statement where one of my columns assigns a sequential value to each row based on the item number. Would like data to look like this where doc_no would be my row_number function:
item_no seq_no note doc_no ABC 1 blah 1 ABC 2 blahh 1 ABC 3 bla3 1 XYZ 1 more n 2 XYZ 2 another 2 EFG 1 blahhh 3
Below. I have also pasted the current result of this query and the desired result.
Query can be updated to get the desired result as given below?
Query: Select c.OTH_PAYER_ID, c.PAID_DATE, f.GROUP_CODE, f.REASON_CODE, f.ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT From MMIT_CLAIM_ITEM b, mmit_tpl c , mmit_attachment_link d, MMIT_TPL_GROUP_RSN_ADJ f where b.CLAIM_ICN_NU = d.CLAIM_ICN and b.CLAIM_ITEM_LINE_NU = d.CLAIM_LINE_NUM and c.TPL_TS = d.TPL_TS and f.TPL_TS = c.TPL_TS and b.CLAIM_ICN_NU = '123456788444'
Current Result which I am getting with this query
OTH_PAYER_ID PAID_DATE GROUP_CODE REASON_CODE ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT 5501 07/13/2015 CO 11 23.87 5501 07/13/2015 PR 12 3.76 5501 07/13/2015 OT 32 33.45 2032 07/14/2015 CO 12 23.87 2032 07/14/2015 OT 14 43.01

I have a business need to create a report by query data from a MS SQL 2008 database and display the result to the users on a web page. The report initially has 6 columns of data and 2 out of 6 have JSON data so the users request to have those 2 JSON columns parse into 15 additional columns (first JSON column has 8 key/value pairs and the second JSON column has 7 key/value pairs). Here what I have done so far:
I found a table value function (fnSplitJson2) from this link [URL]. Using this function I can parse a column of JSON data into a table. So when I use the function above against the first column (with JSON data) in my query (with CROSS APPLY) I got the right data back the but I got 8 additional rows of each of the row in my table. The reason for this side effect is because the function returned a table of 8 row (8 key/value pairs) for each json string data that it parsed.
1. First question: How do I modify my current query (see below) so that for each row in my table i got back one row with 19 columns.
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.* FROM PRODUCT A CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B
If updated my query (see below) and call the function twice within the CROSS APPLY clause I got this error: "The multi-part identifier "A.ITEM6" could be be bound.
2. My second question: How to i get around this error?
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*, C.* FROM PRODUCT A CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B, fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM6,NULL) C

I have one table namely consumer with approx 50 columns.
I have created one same table with audit prefix including 2 more column for action n timestamp fields.
My question is that if user change only 10 column data at a time: i want to add only that particular column data rather to add entire row. Currently I am adding entire row in audit table but now scenario is change to update only updated column data.

I've called a resultset from SQL Server using an SQL Selection. I need to iterate over that entire result set (200+ columns/fields) and all I need are the random numbers contained in any of the rows/columns. I don't want to have to name each field/column and then use an if > 0 statement.Isn't there some way to generically loop through the column's by index or something instead of their field name so I can just use an integer loop to walk the dataset? I know there is I've done it about 5 years ago. The question is how do you do it in C#?SqlConnection thisConn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["SQLQuery"].ConnectionString); SqlCommand thisCmd = new SqlCommand("Command String", thisConn); thisCmd.CommandText = "Select * from SelectionsByCountry where [" + DropDownList1.SelectedItem.ToString() + "] > '0'"; thisConn.Open(); SqlDataReader thisReader = null; thisReader = thisCmd.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection); while (thisReader.Read()) { DropDownList2.Items.Add(thisReader["System"].ToString().Trim());/*** There are 200+ columns left I want to walk over using a loop structure of some sort. How do I do that?*/ }- Rex
Not nice but a work around: is there a way to get the amount of fields or rows from a table or query within MS SQL, to pick out the lastfield-4 for example ?
I am new to database programming and was curious how others solve theproblem of storing encrypted in data in db table columns and thensubsequently searching for these records.The particular problem that I am facing is in dealing with (privacy)critical information like credit-card #s and SSNs or business criticalinformation like sales opportunity size or revenue in the database. Therequirement is that this data be stored encrypted (and not in theclear). Just limiting access to tables with this data isn't sufficient.Does any database provide native facilities to store specific columns asencrypted data ? The other option I have is to use something like RC4 toencrypt the data before storing them in the database.However, the subsequent problem is how do I search/sort on these columns? Its not a big deal if I have a few hundred records; I couldpotentially retrieve all the records, decrypt the specific fields andthen do in process searches/sorts. But what happens when I have (say) amillion records - I really don't want to suck in all that data and workon it but instead use the native db search/sort capabilities.Any suggestions and past experiences would be greatly appreciated.much thanks,~s
