I have table Called as ‘DC_BIL_ActivityLog’ and XML column name is ‘ActivityDescription’ in SQL Server 2012.
The following information stored on that Column. I want to read cancellation date (12/23/2015) using select statement.
<ActivityDescription>
<text value="PCN was initiated for Policy ^1 on 12/07/2015. Cancellation Date is: 12/23/2015. Amount needed to rescind PCN is: $XX.80." />
<link id="1" linkText="GLXXXP2015 12/02/2015 - 12/02/2016" linkType="policy">
<linkId parm="1" value="1140" />
</link>
</ActivityDescription>
Here is a sample order # we used for one of our shipments: BL-53151-24954-1-0001-33934
I need to extract the "24954" portion of that order # while within an INNER JOIN, but not sure how.
My problem is we have 2 order tables: OrderTable1 contains a field with the full order #. OrderTable2 contains a field with only the "24954" portion. I need to JOIN on these 2 fields somehow.
SELECT ot1.Full_Order_No , ot2.Order_No FROM OrderTable1 ot1 INNER JOIN OrderTable2 ot2 ON ot2.Order_No = [do something here to truncate ot1.Full_Order_No]
How can I do this?
Few notes:
-the 1st part of the order number, "BL-53151-" will ALWAYS be the same. It's our client # which will never change for the purpose of this query. -The portion I need (24954) can be more or less than the 5 current digits. -There will always be 6 portions to the order number, split up between 5 dashes.
All the column names in upper case are actually symptom names, and in those columns are values {NULL, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and they belong in a column, so the normalized structure should be like this:
CREATE TABLE Symptom ( PatientID INT NOT NULL, Cycle TINYINT NOT NULL, SymptomName VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, -- from the source column *name* Grade TINYINT NOT NULL -- from the value in the column with the name in uppercase PRIMARY KEY (PatientID, Cycle, SymptomName));
I can untwist the repeating groups with the code I borrowed from Kenneth Fisher's article [ here ], but the part I'm having a harder time with is grabbing the information that's still left in the column name and integrating it into the solution...
I can retrieve all the column names that are in uppercase using this:
DECLARE @db_id int; DECLARE @object_id int; SET @db_id = DB_ID(N'SCRIDB'); SET @object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'SCRIDB.dbo.BadTox'); SELECT name AS column_name , column_id AS col_order FROM sys.all_columns WHERE name = UPPER(name) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS AND object_id = @object_id;
but I can't figure out how to work it into this (that I built by mimicking Kenneth Fisher's article...):
ALTER PROC [dbo].[UnpivotMaxGradeUsingCrossApply] AS SELECT PatientID , Toxicity , MAX(Grade) AS MaxGrade
[code]....
The problem is that I need to extract the column names (where ToxicityName[n] would be). I can do that by querying the sys.all_columns view, but I can't figure out how to integrate the two pieces. About the only thing I have even dreamed up is to build the VALUES(...) statements dynamically from the values returned by the system view.
So how do I get both the value from the ToxicityName[n] column and the column name into my final data query?
I am getting an error importing a csv file both using SSIS and SSMS. The csv is comma delimited with quotes for text qualifiers. The file gets partially loaded and then gives me an error stating The column delimiter for column "MyColumn" was not found. In SSIS it gives me the data row which is apparently causing the problem but when I look at the file in a text editor at the specific row identified the file has the comma delimiter and it looks fine. I am using SQL Server 2008.
'm trying to get the value from a column in a SQL Server table that contains XML but the type of the column is not XML it is TEXT.
I tried this:
SELECT [Id], [Request] FROM [Tracker] WHERE [Request].value('/Credit[1]/Loan[1]/LoanApp[1]/Applicant[1]/Personal[1]/Individals[1]/Individual[1]/GivenName[1]/FirstName[1]', 'nvarchar(50)') = 'Tom'
but I get this error :
Cannot find either column "Request" or the user-defined function or aggregate "Request.value", or the name is ambiguous.
I tried to cast the column like this:
select CAST(CAST(Request AS NTEXT) AS XML).value('(/Credit[1]/Loan[1]/LoanApp[1]/Applicant[1]/Personal[1]/Individuals[1]/Individual[1]/GivenName[1]/FirstName[1]', 'nvarchar(50)')
from Tracker but with this I get this error:
XML parsing: line 1, character 15, A string literal was expected
What would the syntax be to insert a column to the right of this one, and extract the first 8 digits from the data in the DATEID column and insert that into the new column DATE, therefore making it easier for me to query against an actual date?
I am trying to teach myself SSIS and need some help, please.
I have SQL table A as my source with column X. I need to add column Z and populate it from SQL table B, column Y where table A column X >= table B column R and <= table B column S.
Thus: Populate A.z with B.y where A.x >= B.r and A.x <=B.s
The interval between B.r and B.s is unique and only one value will be returned.
Hi, I have a table with one XML type column. This column holds custom field information. Its used as a way of storing ad hoc fields and data that don't fit the DB design. <?xml version="1.0"?><contact><Reference>A39390TFH</Reference><Misc>all kinds of stuff go in here</Misc></contact>I want to provide a way of displaying the data stored in this column in the same DataTable as normal relational data from the same table. I have been able to achieve this goal BUT I want to know if the community had any ideas on how I could speed the process. I am using the XML value() function. It allows me to extract the data I need. SELECT Name, Number, Reference FROM
GROUP BY Name, Number, Reference anyone know if there are better xml functions to get this data out of the XMLColumn?????? There is no schema, because each xml fragment has different tags and different values. Regards Niall
A recent SharePoint upgrade has rendered several views obsolete. I am redefining them so that our upper level executive reports show valid data.(yes, I know that doing anything to sharepoint could cause MS to deny support, having said that, this is something I've inherited and need to fix, pronto) The old view was created like so:
USE [AHMC] GO /****** Object: View [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] Script Date: 09/04/2015 09:28:03 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] AS SELECT
[code]....
As I said, this view is used in a report showing surgical minutes.SharePoint is now on a new server, which is linked differently (distributed?) I've used OPENQUERY to get my 'new' query to work;
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY ([PORTALWEBDB], 'SELECT --AllLists AL.tp_ID AS ALtpID ,AL.tp_WebID as altpwebid ,AL.tp_Title AS ALTitle
[code]....
My data (ie surgical minutes, etc) seems to be in the XML column, AUD.tp_ColumnSet . So I need to parse it out and convert it to INT to maintain consistency with the previous view. How do I do this within the context of the view definition?Here is a representation of the new and old view data copied to excel :
can't format it to make it look decent. InHouseCases =2, InHouseMinutes=419, OutPatientCases =16, OutPatientMinutes=1230. This corresponds to the new data I can see in the XML column; 2.000000000000000e+000 is indeed 2 and 4.190000000000000e_002 is indeed 419.
I am task with identifying the source database name, id, and server name for each staging table that I create. I need to add this to a derived column on all staging tables created from merging same tables on different servers together.
When doing a Merge Join, there is no way to identify the source of data so I would like to see if data came from one database more than the other servers or if their are duplicates across servers.
The thing that bugs me about SSIS Data Flow task is there is no way to do an easy Execute SQL Task after I select my ADO.NET Source to get this information because my connection string is dynamic and there is no way of know which data source is being picked up at runtime.
For Example I have Products table on Server 1 and 2:
Server 2 has more Products and would like to join the two together to create a staging table.
I have a request to export some table data to excel and the "notes" column (varchar 255) contains multiple lines separated by CR/LF. when I export to excel, the first record with CR/LF messes up the column alignment in excel, throwing off the format from that point on. how can i export to excel so that it preserves these CR/LF. or if not, how can I remove these characters so that excel can handle it?
I have a table with lots of xml files in one column(more than 1000), like this
1. <content xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema... 2. <content xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema... 3. <content xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema...each is big
I want to query some values for all to see the duration but now I can only query one of them
declare @bp xml select @bp=xml from bloodpressureohneschema ;WITH XMLNAMESPACES('http://schemas.openehr.org/v1' as bp,'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' as xsi,'OBSERVATION' as type) select * from( select m.c.value('(./bp:time/bp:value)[1]','date') as time, m.c.value('(./bp:data/bp:items[1]/bp:value[1]/bp:magnitude)[1]','int') as value from @bp.nodes('/bp:content/bp:data/bp:events') as m(c) )m
Below is a SQL statement that shows what columns belong to a certain view. My next question is how can I get a third column that shows the column type ?
VARCHAR(100), or UNIQUEIDENTIFIER or INTEGER or TEXT or NVARCHAR(256) or ........????
select top 100 a.name, b.name, from sys.views a inner join sys.columns b on a.object_id = b.object_id where a.name like '%Case_Times%'
I need to add a calculated column item in the same column. Please see SQL Codes for both existing data and desired outcome.
Product O is added according to:
for 201501 Product O= sum of en_count for product Y,W,N when yrmnth=201501 for 201502 Product O= sum of sum of en_count for product Y,W,N when yrmnth=20150
SQL:
--Existing Data --===== If the test table already exists, drop it IF OBJECT_ID('TempDB..#Table1') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Table1
--===== Create the test table with CREATE TABLE #Table1 ( product char(100), yrmnth varchar(6), en_count int,
[Code] ....
--Desired Outcome
IF OBJECT_ID('TempDB..#Table2') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #Table2
--===== Create the test table with CREATE TABLE #Table2 ( product char(100), yrmnth varchar(6),
I have a query, I am trying to update a certain column in my query you can see that is hard coded. The column that I am trying to update is "O_Test" I used a select statement trying to figure out how many records that accounts for with the entire database of all the tables. I got 643 records. So I am wondering if there is a way I can update all the columns without looking up each table and updating each one. This Update statement wont work because I am accounting for all records in the DB of all tables associated of what I hard coded
SELECT t.name AS table_name, SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name, c.name AS column_name FROM sys.tables AS t INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID WHERE c.name LIKE '%O_Test%' ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
I have two tables having one row identifier column each of int datatype. Both these columns are part of the respective primary keys. Now as a part of my process, i'm inserting one small part of data from one table to another table. This was working fine but suddenly started getting error like
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_TargetTable'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'DW.TargetTable'. The duplicate key value is (58544748).First I checked with DBCC CHECKIDENT with NORESEED and found that there is difference in the current identity value and current column value. I fixed it by running DBCC CHECKIDENT. But to my surprise again got the same issue. interesting thing is that the error comes after inserting 65466 records.
I am trying to find a way where I can search for a column that is associated in all tables of the database. I have created a query but is not executing correctly.
SELECT t.name AS table_name, SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS schema_name, c.name AS column_name FROM sys.tables AS t8 INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID WHERE c.name LIKE '%Status%' ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
I want to concatenate the column_names with the respective values.
Create table #test1 (Id int,Name varchar(10),Country varchar(10))
insert into #test1 values ( 1,'JOHN','USA'), (2,'SAM','CANADA'), (3,'HO','CHINA'), (4,'RAM','INDIA')
select * from #test1
I have temp table with columns (Id,Name, Country). I want to concatenate column_name with their respective values; means i want column_header with every value for the column and then i want to concatenate multiple columns. I am looking for something like below:
ID values 1,NAME-john-COUNTRY-USA 2,NAME-SAM-COUNTRY-CANADA 3,NAME-HO-COUNTRY-CHINA 4,NAME-RAM-COUNTRY-INDIA
Note: This is just a sample .i am looking something dynamic because i have around 50 tables.i can do with query below but since i don't have static columns and table i am looking for something dynamic
select ID, (a+'-'+B) as Value from ( select ID,'NAME'+'-'+NAME as a,'Country'+'-'+Country as b from #test1
I've a table that has salescode(124!080) and salesamount(125.65!19.25) and I need to split the columns. Salesman(124) has commission(125.65). Here is the DDL:
USE tempdb; GO DECLARE @TEST_DATA TABLE ( DT_ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED , InvNoVARCHAR(10) NOT NULL , SalesCode NCHAR(80) NOT NULL , Amount NCHAR(80) NOT NULL
I have a table and a specific column inside this table. I know this table is being updated, by using sys.dm_db_index_usage_stats, I was able to determine this, by some process (stored procedure / SQL Job / etc), but the problem is, I am not sure what process is doing it.
How would I search our SQL Server 2008 database to find any process that manipulates this table / column (I only care about Inserts / Updates and Deletes, but do not really care for SELECT).
