There are about 300 fields in a views.
How to reorder all fields by alphabet?
For example, from script of views like below:
select name, date, amount from order
re-order fields' name like below:
select amount, date, name from order
For about 300 fields view, how to code to re-order fields' name?
I have a few databases that are using Partitioned Views in order to manage the table sizes and they all work well for our purposes. Recently I noticed a table that had grown to 400+ million rows and want to partition it as well, so I went about creating new base tables based on the initial table's structure, just adding a column to both table and primary key to be able to build a Partitioned View on them.The first time around, on a test system, everything worked flawlessly but when I put the same structure in place on the production system I get the dreaded "UNION ALL view 'DBName.dbo.RptReportData' is not updatable because the primary key of table '[DBName].[dbo].[RptReportData_201405]' is not included in the union result. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 4444)" error.
I have searched high and low and everything I see points to a few directives in order for a UNION ALL view to be updatable:
- Need a partitioning column that is part of the primary key
- Need a CHECK constraint that make the base tables exclusive, i.e. data cannot belong to more than one table
- Cannot have IDENTITY or calculated columns in the base tables
- The INSERT statement needs to specify all columns with actual values, i.e. not DEFAULT
Well, according to me, my structure fulfills these conditions but the INSERT fails anyway. CREATE scripts below scripted from SQL Server. I only modified them to be on a single row - it is easier to verify that they are identical in a text editor that way.
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON

I have just transferred my site to a new server with SBS R2 Premium, so the site's database changed from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. I find that searches are now returning results in random order, even though they use a view with an Order By clause to force the order I want.
I find that the results are unordered when I test the view with Management Studio, so the issue is unrelated to my VB/ASP Net code.
Using my SQL update tool (SQL Compare, from Redgate) I find that there are no differences in the views, or the underlying tables.
Using Management Studio to test a number of views, I find that I have a general problem with all views. For example, one of the simpler views is simply a selection of fields from one table, with an Order By clause on the tables primary key: - SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT GDQid, GDQUser, GDQGED, GDQOption, gdqTotalLines, GDQTotalIndi, GDQRestart, GDQCheckpointMessage, GDQStarted, GDQFinished, gdqCheckpointRecordCountr FROM dbo.GEDQueue ORDER BY GDQid DESC
If I right-click the view (from Management Studio's Object Explorer pane), select Design from the menu to show the view's design, and then click the Execute SQL icon, the view's results are displayed perfectly, in descending order of GDQid. However, if I select "Open View" the view's results are displayed out of order.
When I do this with the SQL 2000 database, both Design/Execute and Open View correctly display the data in the correct order.
Is there something that I should check in the SQL 2005 installation - some option that has been set incorrectly?

Is there a way to make EM script all views of a database in the order in which they depend on each other?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using SQL 2005 merge replication with SP1 hotfix build 9.00.2227.00. This build is in use rather than SP2 because a fix I need is not yet available for SP2
Essentially the problem is as follows:
1) Initial state is that merge replication of table and views is working fine
2) I then alter one view which references a new view in the same publication
3) Synchronization processes the view scripts in the wrong order regardless of the processing order
4) An 'invalid object name' error results as the new view has not arrived at the subscriber when alteration of the first view is attempted
The number suffixes on the script filenames in the snapshot folder do, however,appear to be numbered correctly so as to process in the correct order
Note that I have tried using the default processing order and have also set the processing order explicitly using sp_changemergearticle - but the problem still occurs
I have tried to recreate this problem on a small database with a minimum of articles, but attempts at repro have failed to date with a simple configuration - ie the processing order applied is correct
Is there an known problem in this area?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated

I would like for each of the queries to have all of the selected fields shown horizontally in one table.
For example,
Commercial Created | Commercial Closed | Commercial UserId | Residential Created | Residential Closed | Residential UserId | Other Created | Other Closed | Other UserId.
Here is what I have now and it is displaying the fields as I would like them to. In the code below, each Views is acting as an individual table and then joined together to make another table when the query is executed.
WITH t1 AS (
SELECT vSalesReportProcessDetail.[RequestId]
,vSalesReportProcessDetail.Process
,vSalesReportProcessDetail.Entered
,vSalesReportProcessDetail.Closed
/*ROW_NUMBER() over (ORDER BY vSalesReportProcessDetail.[RequestId]) rn*/
FROM[Sales].[dbo].[vSalesReportProcessDetail]
WHERE Process = 'Commercial' ),

The data I am pulling is correct I just cant figure out how to order by the last 8 numbers that is my NUMBER column. I tried adding FOR XML AUTO to my last line in my query: From AP_DETAIL_REG where AP_BATCH_ID = 1212 and NUMBER is not null order by NUMBER FOR XML AUTO) as Temp(DATA) where DATA is not null
but no change same error.
Output:

I have a problem with ordering and I am hoping that someone is able to help.
In my table I have two fields, "requestdate" and "sentdate", and when I display the records I would like to sort by BOTH fields. I want to do this so that the full query is in order by date.
I tried:
ORDER BY requestdate, sentdate DESC
But obviously all that does is order by requestdate (which is NULL or a date) and than it will order by sentdate.
Can somebody tell me how to order by both as if they were the same field?
Thanks!
Hi,
Can we validate the returned order of fields from a stored procedure? Infact, i am taking a query as user input and extracts the results based on the query but for that order of fields specified in a query is important.
Can i check the order after the query is run i.e if this is entered "select field1,field2,field3 from table" then i need to check the order of the resultset generated. I can't check the query before the resultset is generated because a user can enter bunch of queries.
Any way will work, tsql or .net app.
Thanks,
the table is like :
ID F1 F2 F3
--- --- --- ---
1 A 1 VR
2 B 2 VR
3 A 3 VF
4 A 2 VF
5 B 1 VF
......
the rules is:
if there are rows with same values of F3 field,then choose the top 1 row order by F1,F2 in the group,and delete other rows.
how can I delete rows with ID in (2 , 3 , 5)?
I 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'.
How do I properly write a CASE statement for the following business logic:
I want three of the following fields to be true in order to return 'Y'.
For example:
If field name 'Accepted' = 1 AND field 'StepNo' = '1' and field 'Visit' = 'V1'
Otherwise, I want it to return 'N'.
I have tried the following code below and it is not working.
, CASE WHEN Accepted = '1' AND StepNo ='1' AND Visit ='V1'
THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END AS 'StatusQ (Col N)'
I need to increment values
I have written this script execute this :
This is for this scenario
Insert Into #String SELECT 'S601-S630',1,'Desc1'
Drop table #IDs
CREATE TABLE #IDs(ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) ,String VARCHAR(100),Flag Int,Description VARCHAR(1000))
CREATE TABLE #string(ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) ,String VARCHAR(100),Falg Int,Descript VARCHAR(1000))
DECLARE @min INT ,@Max INT ,@String VARCHAR(50),@Start VARCHAR(50),@End VARCHAR(50),@Flag INT,@Desc VARCHAR(1000)
[Code] ....
How I need to increment if the input is like this
Insert Into #String SELECT '6S01-6S30',1,'Desc1'
if alphabet is in middle of the number??
I have one table with one column:
region
Global
USA
England
Germany
Spain
What I want is that the first entry Global is always in the first row the rest should be ordered by alphabet.
I tried this but order by works only for the result of union:
SELECT * FROM csappcidb_region WHERE region='Global'
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM csappcidb_region WHERE region<>'Global' ORDER BY region
What else can I do?
Got a tough one here for you SQL junkies.I'm working on a website (in ASP) for a national greek/collegeorganization. All it's college chapters have greek chapter names,i.e. Alpha Chapter, Delta Chapter, Delta Iota Chapter, Gamma PhiChapter, ect. ect.I need the SQL to return the chapters in greek alphabet ordering. Seebelow:1. Alpha2. Beta3. Gamma4. Delta5. Epsilon6. Zeta7. Eta8. Theta9. Iota10. Kappa11. Lambda12. Mu13. Nu14. Xi15. Omicron16. Pi17. Rho18. Sigma19. Tau20. Upsilon21. Phi22. Chi23. Psi24. OmegaBasically I need a way to specify this type of presedence for wordingand keep all the results in greek-letter order, so Sigma Upsilon comesbefore Sigma Tau, and so on.Also, to make it even more difficult, these are written words, not theactual greek symbols like α β etc. Everything is stored inthe DB as Alpha Beta Whateva Chapter.Hopefully some of you SQL junkies will be able to help on this one ;)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a question regarding the locking behavior of indexed views. We have a 3rd party application and something like the following table:
CREATE TABLE [Person].[Person](
[BusinessEntityID] int NOT NULL,
[FirstName] varchar(20) NOT NULL,
[MiddleName] varchar(20) NULL,
[code]....
Also the 3rd party application uses an indexed view, which is based on the following query and has the same structure as the base table:
SELECT [BusinessEntityID],
[FirstName],
[MiddleName],
[LastName],
SUM([Quantity]) AS [SUMQuantity]
FROM [Person].[Person]
GROUP BY [BusinessEntityID], [FirstName], [MiddleName], [LastName]
The result is, that the indexed view has nearly the same data / entries as the base table. The indexed view is often queried like this:
SELECT SUM(SUMQuantity) FROM [vPerson] WITH(UPDLOCK, NOEXPAND) WHERE [BusinessEntityID] = 45 AND [FirstName] = 'test'
The base table is also queried very often with update locks (UPDLOCK). Because the indexed view is nearly just a copy of the base table and there is no performance gain (read), I would like to drop the indexed view. I'll then experience more locks / blocks, because now the queries are seperated on two objects.
our group is debating whether we should use views or data marts. WE have some huge queries that can have many joins up to 20 in some cases. One part of our group wants to use views to pull this data and another thinks we should create a data mart off an SSIS package and run it early every morning and then have the users access the data directly from there.
I am not really sure how a view would speed things up. If I have 20 users and they all call a view the view is created 20 times is that not correct? Since a view is basically just a stored sql statement (not a stored proc) I am not seeing how this is any more efficient.
I have a basic while loop but I need to be able to increment the counter from one alpha character to the next:
declare @counter nvarchar(10)
set @counter = 'A'
while @counter < 'Z'

set @counter = @counter + @counter
end
In this example I would need to see the following output:
the counter is Athe counter is Bthe counter is Cthe counter is D.....
Is this possible in SQL?

- If first the complete dataset from the view is calculated and the the CustomerId=10 filter is applied
- Or the CustomerId=10 condition is added to the where clause in the view definition
