I have some duplicate values for my query results, about 200 duplicates out of 30000 rows. Of these 200 duplicates I want to keep the ones that have a higher value for... 'UpdatedBatchID'.
SELECT
IR.Id as 'ID'
, CAST(IR.Priority as varchar) as 'Priority'
, IRSupportGroupDN.DisplayName as 'Support Group'
, DATEADD(MI,DATEDIFF(mi,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()),IR.CreatedDate) as 'Created Date'
, DATEADD(MI,DATEDIFF(mi,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()),IR.ResolvedDate) as 'Resolved Date'

I have an Address column that I need to Substring. I want to remove part of the string after either, or both of the following characters i.e ',' OR '*'
Example Record 1. Elland **REQUIRES BOOKING IN***
Example Record 2. Theale, Nr Reading, Berkshire
Example Record 3. Stockport
How do I achieve this in a CASE Statement?
The following two case statements return the correct results, but I some how need to combine them into a single Statement?
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(',',Address) =0
THEN LEN(Address )
ELSE CHARINDEX(',' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test'
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('*',Address ) =0
THEN LEN(Address)
ELSE CHARINDEX('*' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test2'
I've got an OLEDB DB2 linked server to a db2/AS400 instance and selecting from a table on the server has never caused problems before. One of the columns is a large text field. If I select all the columns but the large text field, it returns as normal, but including the large text field now, I get:
"Transport error: shared memory provider error: 0 - no process is on the other end of the pipe"
The largest entry in the text field is about 5k characters, and there don't appear to be any strange characters.

Sample record:- Northants NN4 0NB
Should be NN4 0NB

but unable to correct this problem?

Hi, I'm a new DBA and am a rookie when it comes to working with SQL Server 2005. I have been tasked with transfering an Access database to SQL Server 2005. Now I understand to use the import/export wizard, but am having problems fixing an error I am receiving. Here is the error...
Problem I
- Copying to [IS_Shared_ServicesTest].[dbo].[tblResource] (Error)

* Error 0xc0202009: Data Flow Task: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.

* Error 0xc020901c: Data Flow Task: There was an error with input column "Contract Start Date" (115) on input "Destination Input" (80). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Here is the short version of the error. I realize that there is an error with the conversion and the error is in tblResource in column Contract Start Date. It is still transfering the column over, and on spot check they seem fine. Should I be really worried about an error? Or is there something that I can do with the Access or SQL server database to fix this?

I have a table like this below and it doesn't only contain English Names but it also contain Chinese Name.
CREATE TABLE Names
(FirstName NVARCHAR (50),
LastName NVARCHAR (50));
I tried to view the column using SQL Query Analyzer, It didn't display Chinese Character.
I know that SQL Server 2005 is using UCS-2 Encoding and Chinese Character uses Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) Encoding.
I want to read the FirstName and LastName columns and display in Window Form Data Grid and ASP.NET Grid View.
I tried to use this code below and it didn't work. It convert some of the English Name to Chinese Character and it display the chinese character and some still in the original unreadable characters.
Does anybody know how to read those character from SQL Table and display the correct Chinese Character without converting the English Name into Chinese also?
Thanks
int codePage = 950;
StringBuilder message = new StringBuilder();
Encoding targetEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(codePage);
byte[] encodedChars= targetEncoding.GetBytes(str);
.
message.AppendLine("Byte representation of '" + str + "' in Code Page '" + codePage + "':");
for (int i = 0; i < encodedChars.Length; i++)
{
message.Append("Byte " + i + ": " + encodedChars);
}
message.AppendLine(" RESULT : " + System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetString(encodedChars));
Console.Writeline(message.ToString());
I created a mirrored DB, added a new datafile to the principal using a path the mirror can't access. As a result the mirroring session was suspended because the mirror stated: "CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.) while attempting to open or create the physical file".
Fine, so I disabled mirroring on the principal (SET PARTNER OFF) which worked just fine, but the mirror stayed in a mirrored state, Object Explorer saying:"(Mirror, Disconnected / In Recovery). Sooo, I tried to disable db mirroring on the mirror using ALTER DATABASE db SET PARTNER OFF;, which completed successfully, but the DB STILL remained in a mirrored-configuration.
I tried ALTER DATABASE db SET PARTNER FORCE_SERVICE_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS which resulted in
"Msg 1404, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
The command failed because the database mirror is busy. Reissue the command later."
I tried taking the DB offline or restoring it from a backup, but all these operations resulted in "The operation cannot be performed on database "db" because it is involved in a database mirroring session or an availability group."
The only solution I can think of at the moment is shutting down the instance and deleting the data and log-files of the mirrored db, which would be just fine because this is just a test installation, but it would be not quite as easy in a productive environment.
Is there any other way to remove the mirrored state from a disconnected mirror or to simply get rid of the db entirely to perform a recovery?
As part of patching i need to remove the database from availability group and add the database after patching is done , how can i achieve this ?

I need a query to get the first value greater than a specific threshold value
LoadTemp1 LoadTemp2 LoadTemp3 LoadTemp4 TimeStamp
300 200 100 320 12-10-2013 13:30:29
100 250 113 340 12-10-2013 14:20:12
114 339 209 345 12-10-2013 14:45:01
I need to get the first value >= 340 threshold
I need to make a Benchmark on when the first LoadTemp crosses Threshold of 340 and capture the time.
I have a simple example of what I am trying to do. Here is some code to make a quick table to demonstrate:
create table #students
(
lastname varchar(50)
,firstname varchar(50)
,address1 varchar(50)
[Code].....
I want to select all the records, and them them be in alphabetical order first by lastname, then by firstname, then by address. HOWEVER, and this is the tricky part, I want to group names together that have the same address. So, in this example, I want the results to be in this order:
HallC6309 N Olive
HallP6309 N Olive <---- grouped with the C record because they have the same address
HallE5488 W Catalina <---- back to alphabetical by first name
HallJ7222 N Cocopas
I have an SQL .bak file and I would only like to restore specific columns as one of the columns is a free text field and is substantially increasing the size of the file. I can't restore it due to disk space constraints so dropping the column isn't possible if I can't get the table into a database locally.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was looking for a little insight on Resource Governor. I have a request from my manager to limit the resources a certain third party's DB can use on our system. We allow them to keep a DB on our SQL 2012 server so they can run query's to compare data to their server without linking the two machines.
I was looking into resource manager to perhaps accomplish this task but I'm not real familiar with it. If Resource governor can be used to only allow a DB named UserDB1 to use only 1GB or Memory at any one time?
Or perhaps there is another way aside from Resource governor?
I have standard SQL query for clients, but sometimes a client does not have a specific table.
How do I deal with that? (creating the table is not an option)
SELECT
A.Col1
,A.Col2
,B.Col3
--> Col 50
FROM
TableA A Join
TableB B ON A.ColA = B.ColA
Suppose in some cases TabelB does not exist. How do I make sure the rest of the query runs okay and does not result in an error?
