- all numbers
- 5<=length<=10
Thanks for any help...
feel like a dafty asking this one but can anyone tell me the proper syntax for checking if a date being inserted is greater than today ?
I have tried [datetobechecked] >= getdate()
without success in the expression editor
thanks
Hi all,
I wrote the expression below in a table's check constraint
(CustomerTypeID = 0 and ContentSiteID is null and ResellerID is null and AffiliateID is null and WhiteLabeLID is null ) or
( CustomerTypeID = 1 and ContentSiteID is not null and ResellerID is null and AffiliateID is null and WhiteLabeLID is null )
It saved it ok, but when I re-opened and viewed the expression again it was converted to:
([CustomerTypeID] = 0 and [ContentSiteID] is null and [ResellerID] is null and [AffiliateID] is null and [WhiteLabeLID] is null
[CustomerTypeID] = 1 and [ContentSiteID] is not null and [ResellerID] is null and [AffiliateID] is null and [WhiteLabeLID] is null )
This is a different logic because the OR is not prioritised above the AND.
Any solution or should I move my condition to the table's Update and Insert triggers?
Thanks!

I have a column say 'ActivationDate' which is a (database timestamp [DT_DBTIMESTAMP]) which I want to replace with an expression in derived columns
The condition is if 'ActivationDate' field is null or '' then 'Null' else 'ActivationDate'
I am struggling to write this condition. Without condition i.e. at present it saves the value in this database '1753-01-01 00:00:00.000'.
In the preview the 'ActivationDate'field does not show any thing so I recon it is either null or ''
Is it possible to use a IIF IsNothing expression and check another condition? For all the values that are blank, I want it to check another column if  "Disposition" = 2 then I want to show "Inactive"
=iif(isnothing(Fields!Value)," ","MS " & Fields!Value)

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
=Lookup(Fields!salesperson.Value,Fields!sales_person.Value,RunningValue(Fields!sales_amount.Value,
sum, " sales_person"),
"Largeappliances").
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.
(processing): (SortExpression ++ m_context.ExpressionType)
I have multiple ODBC connection and how to check all connection automatically during routine check by using batch file.

I need a statement like:UPDATE tblQuestions SET QuestionNumber = QuestionNumber +1 WHERE QuestionNumber >=10 AND TestID = 1 AND SectionNumber = 1
(Required output is clear from statement itself)
I tried with
UPDATE tblQuestions SET QuestionNumber = EVAL(QuestionNumber +1) WHERE QuestionNumber >=10 AND TestID = 1 AND SectionNumber = 1
and
UPDATE tblQuestions SET QuestionNumber = (QuestionNumber +1) WHERE QuestionNumber >=10 AND TestID = 1 AND SectionNumber = 1
I've just started working with SQL. Please suggest correct approach.
I have the following code in the expression builder for a ExecuteSQL Task in the Control Flow.
"INSERT dbo.StgFileList SELECT ' " + @[User::MyFile] + " ' "
When I evaluate it, it renders as INSERT Staging.StgXMLFileList SELECT ' '
What am I doing wrong in the expression builder?
Is it possible to nest expressions within a script in a similar fashion to how they're nested within the expression editor?
I have a requirement to strip trailing digits from a string field, so that only two decimal places are left.
e.g.
1.12345 becomes 1.12
12345.6789 becomes 12345.67
I would do this in the expression editor but I need to use Script component because there are a multitude of conditions that need to be evaluated first which I will do inside a Select Case statement.
I'm wrestling with code that looks like
Newratefield = ratefield.Substring(1, Findstring(ratefield, ".", 1) + 2)
but VB doesn't like the 'Findstring(ratefield, ".", 1) + 2)' part.
Any suggestions on what I can do here?

Hi,
In ssis I would like to map a column from table a to a column in table b
Currently this is how I am doing it using sql.
I believe I have to use a derived column but not sure how to implement if statement inside it.
Thanks

I need to replace a field that might contain a certain character with another should the value occur.
To explain
If i get a hash # in the field, then I need to replace the whole field with a 0 since its a numeric field
I'm just a bit of a noob still with expressions

Hi,
Is it possible to search in columns with a number datatype (I'm using an MS SQL database with bigint columns) with the ICriterion Expression.Like?
Normally the Expression.Like is used for varchar columns. However, if there's a bigint column with the value 167829 I want to search for example on %678%.
Cheers,
koekie
Hello,In VB/VB.NET, I can use an expression as such to evaluate true/false:Dim blnValue As Boolean = (SomeObject.Property = "Some value")Can I do this in T-SQL?declare @var bitset @var = ?Thanks.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello, I need to create a table where a column's data should have a hypen inserted after the second character. The table will accept a large input of rows, so I think it would be better to use a SQL expression or formula on the column to provide the hyphen on insert rather than doing an update statement later. There is no way of knowing how many characters will follow the hyphen.
So for example... 888888 would become 88-8888
or 5555555555555555 would become 55-55555555555555
Any help would be great!

HiI'm looking to return rows from a table where a column is LIKE a keyword. This is my current code:SELECT DISTINCT business_name FROM Table WHERE business_name LIKE @keyword + '%' ORDER BY business_name ASCThe problem with this is that if a business is called "The White Ship Inn", and the keyword to match is "White Ship" it will not match. If i put another wild card in front of @keyword then this finds too many matches - i need it to match against columns which either start with the keyword, or have a whitespace in front of them. Is there some kind of T-Sql i can use or will i have to go down the regex route (using this (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/mcpp/xpregex.aspx)) ?cheers

The full error is this: Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.
My Code:
SELECT Customers.CustomerID, Customers.EmailAddress, Customers.LastName, Customers.FirstName,
(SELECT Addresses.Line1, Addresses.Line2, Addresses.City, Addresses.State, Addresses.ZipCode FROM Addresses JOIN Customers
ON Addresses.CustomerID = Customers.CustomerID WHERE Addresses.AddressID = Customers.BillingAddressID),

ON Addresses.CustomerID = Customers.CustomerID WHERE Addresses.AddressID = Customers.ShippingAddressID)
FROM Customers JOIN Addresses
ON Customers.CustomerID = Addresses.CustomerID;
I am trying to test a query I am going to use to create a view with all of a customers addresses (billing and shipping).
I have an expression based upon 2 fields in a view that I want to be able to divide and then multiply by a number. Whenever I do the division portion of the calculation all I get are 0 & 1's. I was hoping to use the percentage in other calculations.
Is there something similar to FORMAT(X/Y,0.00)?
(vwLbrPosSum.PosMin/vwMinByEmp.TotMin) x (a)vwLbrPosSum.PosMin or (b) 2400 or (c)vwMinbyEmp.TotMin - 2400
