SQL Query: Rows To Columns
Feb 6, 2008
Hi All,
I have a sample table as below:
(All columns do not have to have unique values)
Column n is int, the rest are varchar
[First row is the column Names]
n | t1 | t2 | t3 | t4
1 | a | b | c | d
3 | e | w | a | t
3 | w | q | u | k
2 | g | w | q | n
2 | a | b | s | a
5 | n | a | w | h
I need to create a query or some how create a way to get the data in the form of the below table:
n | t1 | t2 | t3 | t4 | t11 | t21 | t31 | t41
1 | a | b | c | d |
3 | e | w | a | t | w | q | u | k
2 | g | w | q | n | a | b | s | a
5 | n | a | w | h
What that means is that I have a huge table (~6000 rows) that has the column 'n' above (int type) which can have rows that start with the same number (such as number 3 & 2 above). I need these duplicate rows of numbers to be converted/transformed to columns alongside each other. This would create 1 entry for each type of number but have the 4 columns of t1, t2, t3, t4 'added' on as extra columns in the new table with a different column name ofcourse.
So what that would mean is that if there were 3 rows of number n=2 then would have 3x4=12 columns, plus the 'n' column and so forth.
I am not sure on how to start the query for this.
What I have thought is maybe using a cursor and going through the table. But not sure how I could do that really.
The other is using a Pivot in a SELECT statement. But that would not work since the columns can grow indefinetely depending on how many of the same 'number' row there is!
Any ideas on this? Thanks a bunch !!!

I currently have data stored in a temporary table and I would like to transpose the data into a better format. I would like for the query to be dynamic since one of the tables currently has over 500 columns.
The attached file provides an example of the table structure along with sample data. Below the first set of data is the desired final format.

I would like to change rows into columns and columns to rows for the query output table
If the query output is shown the table below (including the column names in the first row).
A B C D E
a1 b1 c1 d1 e1
a2 b2 c2 d2 e2
a3 b3 c3 d3 e3
a4 b4 c4 d4 e4
a5 b5 c5 d5 e5
The table needs to be converted to (the rows become columns and columns become rows).
A a1 a2 a3 a4 a5
B b1 b2 b3 b4 b5
C c1 c2 c3 c4 c5
D d1 d2 d3 d4 d5
E e1 e2 e3 e4 e5

I was using the MDX Query Builder to create MDX queries for a SSRS report. I'm not sure what happened, but when I tried to create another dataset against the cube, the "Drop Column Fields Here" and "Drop Row Fields Here" areas were no longer available for me to drop attributes onto.
I have restarted VS, rebooted, you name it, I've tried it (short of re-installing). Has anyone encountered this and how did you "fix" it.
BTW: In order to continue working, I decided to use ProClarity to build the MDX for me and when I tried to paste it into the MDX editor, I get the following error: "The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. ..". So, as I've seen from other posts, you can't use "any" MDX in the MDX Query Builder.

Hello,
I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row:
user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3
For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer):
user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3
How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row
Thanx,Danny.

I managed to transpose rows into columns.
;WITH
ctePreAgg AS
(
select top 500 act_reference "ActivityRef",
row_number() over (partition by act_reference order by act_reference) as rowno,
t3.s_initials "Initials"
from mytablestuff
order by act_reference
[code]...
But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
ref, initials
Ag-4xYS
Ag-6xYS,BL
Ap-1xKW
At-2x SAS,CW
At-3x SAS,CW
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view
ref, init1,init2
Ag-4xYS
Ag-6xYS,BL
Ap-1xKW
At-2x SAS,CW
At-3x SAS,CW

I have a report which is a list of items and I display everything about the item. It is great. My report table in the layout tab is simple. Header,Detail,Footer. Each Item has 65 columns. The number of items (rows) vary upon what you want to see. Example data.
Item#, Description, CaseSalePrice, Cost, BottleSalePrice, Discount
123, Grenadine, 100.00, 75.00, 15.50, 2.00
456, Lime Juice, 120.00, 81.00, 17.25, 2.00
There could be 1 item or 4000 items.
What I want to see is.
Item # - 123, 456
Description - Grenadine, Lime Juice
CaseSalePrice - 100.00, 120.00
Cost - 75.00, 81.00
BottleSalePrice - 15.50, 17.25
Discount - 2.00, 2.00
What I am actually doing is running this the top example and saving to excel. Then copying the sheet. Creating a new sheet then doing a paste special transpose and this gives the users what they want to see.
I want to grab that table object in the report layout tab and twist it 90degrees so the header is on the left, detail is in the middle and the footer is on the right. It would be perfect.
The dynamic column need is really the problem here. I never know how many items will be in the report. They all have the same basic information like description and pricing.
I am all out of creative ideas, any help would be appreciated.

I am working on a Statistical Reporting system where:
Data Repository: SQL Server 2005
Business Logic Tier: Views, User Defined Functions, Stored Procedures
Data Access Tier: Stored Procedures
Presentation Tier: Reporting ServicesThe end user will be able to slice & dice the data for the report by
different organizational hierarchies
different number of layers within a hierarchy
select a organization or select All of the organizations with the organizational hierarchy
combinations of selection criteria, where this selection criteria is independent of each other, and also differeBelow is an example of 2 Organizational Hierarchies:
Hierarchy 1
Country -> Work Group -> Project Team (Project Team within Work Group within Country)
Hierarchy 2
Client -> Contract -> Project (Project within Contract within Client)Based on 2 different Hierarchies from above - here are a couple of use cases:
Country = "USA", Work Group = "Network Infrastructure", Project Team = all teams
Country = "USA", Work Group = all work groups
Client = "Client A", Contract = "2007-2008 Maint", Project = "Accounts Payable Maintenance"
Client = "Client A", Contract = "2007-2008 Maint", Project = all
Client = "Client A", Contract = allI am totally stuck on:
How to implement the data interface (Stored Procs) to the Reports
Implement the business logic to handle the different hierarchies & different number of levelsI did get help earlier in this forum for how to handle a parameter having a specific value or NULL value (to select "all")
(WorkGroup = @argWorkGroup OR @argWorkGrop is NULL)
Any Ideas? Should I be doing this in SQL Statements or should I be looking to use Analysis Services.
Thanks for all your help!

Hi All,
I am using sql server 2005. I stuck out in a strange problem.
I am using view in my stored procedure, when I run the stored procedure some of the rows get skipped out means if select query have to return 10 rows then it is returning 5 rows or any other but not all, also the records displyaing is randomly coming, some time it is displaying reords 12345 next time 5678, other time 2468.
But if I run seperately the querys written in SP then it returns all the rows. Please give me solution why it is happening like this.
There are indexes in the tables.
Once I shrink the database and rebuild the indexes, from then this problem is happening. I have rebuild the indexes several time, also updated the statistics but nothing improving.
But nothing is improving

hi,I'm building a multi-lingual website In my database tables I have, in some of them, a column with the Language, because some of the columns depend on what language the user wants to see the site.My question is: what is better? have that column and consequently two row (for two languages) with repeated column information? or have two column within a row with the language specification?e.g. table: id, description, price(1) With language:id,description, price, language='EX' id,description, price, language='EN' vs.(2) id, descriptionEN,descriptionEX,price if I have 500 products in 1 whould result in 1000 entriesin 2 just 500 results can anyone tell me a diference/advantage between the two approachs?thanks in advance.

I am using SQL 2008. I have a database called ISCmetrics and a table called Meeting, the table meeting has 5 columns id
( int),TEAMNAME (varchar),DATECOMPLETE (varchar),STATUSNAME (varchar),STATUSLEVEL (varchar)
We have around 20 different team names , and every team enters data into the database every day, and we have around 7 Different STATUSNAME they are always the same , the STATUSLEVEL is always a 1 or a 0 , so TEAMA enters a value every day for each of the 7 STATUSNAME, and the value is either a 1 or a 0 .
The output for a Select * from ISCMetricslooks like this
id TEAMNAME DATECOMPLETE STATUSNAME STATUSLEVEL
1 TeamA 20131022 STATCONTACT 1
2 TeamA 20131022 STATACTION 1
3 TeamA 20131022 STATABC 1

10 TeamB 20131021 STATCONTACT 1
11 TeamB 20131021 STATACTION 1
12 TeamB 20131021 STATABC 1
What i am trying to achieve is this, i want the teams in one column then a column for each of the dates , and then sum of the STATUSLEVEL in each row as shown below for the day and team .....
TEAMNAME 20131022 20131021

Afternoon
I am trying to write a query that will return the columns: year/ month, each status type (unknown how many types there are)
Each row is a different join year/ month
Each cell has the count of users that joined in that rows year/ month and currently have the status of the column.
At the moment I have the following query:
SELECT [remortgage-status].status, COUNT(1) AS CountTotal, YEAR([remortgage-log].datetime) AS Year, MONTH([remortgage-log].datetime) AS month FROM [remortgage-status] INNER JOIN [remortgage-log] ON [remortgage-status].clientid = [remortgage-log].clientid WHERE ([remortgage-log].action = N'Joined') GROUP BY [remortgage-status].status, YEAR([remortgage-log].datetime), MONTH([remortgage-log].datetime)
The problem is that each different status is a new row rather than each status being a column.
What do I need to do to correct this? - I dont know all the different possible statuses at this point

I have a large amount of data in an XML file. The file is very simple. Off of the root node are category nodes and each category node has many detail nodes. The detail node consist of the node name and the node value. Rather than map the detail to matching named fields in a single record, I would like to send the detail node data to individual data records where the category code, node name and node value are the only fields in the record. For example,
Starting with
<Category>
<Code>001</Code
<Details>
<DetailCode123>75.87</DetailCode123>
<DetailCode728>12.98</DetailCode728>
<DetailCode387>55.72</DetailCode387>
</Details>
</Category>
I want to be able to pick up the 001 code for the category and then transform the above data into 3 separate table records with the following fields (CatCode, DetailCodeName, DetailValue).
001, DetailCode123, 75.84
001, DetailCode728, 12.98
001, DetailCode387, 5572
Does this sort of transform exist? If not, I will have generate my own parsing script. Thought it was worth asking before doing the additional work.
Thanks

Hi
I have 2 tables defined as follows:
Table1 = uid, Field1, Field2, Field3 ... Fieldn, FormUID
Table2 = FormUID, Label, Position
When I query Table1 I would like to replace the column name of Field1...Fieldn with the Label from Table2 where the Position = n value of Field lable
e.g. lets say Table2 contains the following
1, customerName, 1
1, customerTitle, 2
1, customerDOB, 3
and Table1 might contain
1, Paul Jones, Mr, 21/09/1987, 1
when I query Table1 I would get
uid = 1, Field1 = Paul Jones, Field2 = Mr, Field3 = 21/09/1987
what I would like to get is
uid = 1, customerName = Paul Jones, customerTitle = Mr, customerDOB = 21/09/1987
I have up to 20 Fieldn columns so need to do this for all columns even if there is no matching columns.
any help would be great

I have a table with three columns:
AcctNbr, Type, CodeValue
Listed below is an example of the database.
Code:
AcctNbr Type CodeValue
1 MAILCODE 99
2 MAILCODE 99
3 MAILCODE 99
4 MAILCODE 90
4 MAILCODE 99
4 SEG1 O
5 MAILCODE 99

10 MAILCODE 90
11 MAILCODE 99
12 MAILCODE 99
13 MAILCODE 99
14 MAILCODE 99
15 LIST DS1
15 MAILCODE 99
There are multiple Type's for some AcctNbr's and what I want to do is
run a query on the database so that if the AcctNbr has multiple Type's
and CodesValue's it takes them and creates new columns like so:
Code:
AcctNbr MailCode_90 MailCode_99 SEG1
4 90 99 O
So on and so forth. There are multiple Type's and multiple codes that
I need to do this with for each account number. If someone could give
me a base code to try I could start somewhere. I am an SQL novice.
Thanks.
