I have about 100 K records of the form below in Example 1 and I would like to turn them into the form of Example 2, basically turn the entries in field2 into a coma separated list of values sorted by field1.
Example 1:
field1_field2
1_____a
1_____b
1_____c
2_____f
2_____g
and I would like to get it in the form
Example 2:
field1_field3
1_____a,b,c
2_____f,g
IE:
ID ContactID
1 4, 5, 6, 8
2 3,4,6
Someone coded their database like this. It is a SQL server table with these two fields.
How do I use SSIS to parse out that single field?
I am trying to create a comma delimited list of InvNo along with the JobNo .

SELECT '3079', 'abc'

I have a requirement for SSRS where the input has the following structure:
Store NumberStore Owner

I have a requirement for SSRS report where part of the input has the following structure:
Store NumberStore Owner
542 Jaklin Givargidze

but the user would like to see the following:
Store Number Store Owner
542 Jaklin Givargidze, Raymond G. Givargidze
557 Hui Juan Lu, Tong Yu Lu
I am sure that this can be coded, just don't know how. I believe that proper term is to "serialize" the values.
Consider the following data:
create table #test
(id int
,color varchar(20)
)
insert into #test
(id, color)
values
(1, 'blue'),(2, 'red'),(3,'green'),(4,'red,green')
if I wanted to run a query to select any records that had red in the color field, how would I do that? Not the one with only red, but a query that would give me both record number 2 and record number 4.
I have a comma separated field containing numerous 2 digit numbers that I would like splitting out by a corresponding unique code held in another field on the same row.
E.g
Unique Code Comma Separated Field
14587934 1,5,17,18,19,40,51,62,70
6998468 10,45,62,18,19
79585264 1,5,18
These needs to be in column format or held in an array to be used as conditional criteria.
Unique Code Comma Separated Value
79585264 1
79585264 5
79585264 18
I have one sp which has param name as cordinatorname varchar(max)
In where condition of my sp i passed as
coordinator=(coordinatorname in (select ltrim(rtrim(value)) from dbo.fnSPLIT(@coordinatorname,',')))
But now my promblm is for @coordinatorname i have values as 'coorcinator1', 'coordinato2,inc'
So when my ssrs report taking these values as multiselect, comma seperated coordinator2,inc also has comma already.
Our front end saves all IP addresses used by a customer as a comma separated string, we need to analyse these to check for blocked IPs which are all stored in another table.
A LIKE statement comparing each string with the 100 or so excluded IPs will be very expensive so I'm thinking it would be less so to split out the comma separated values into tables.
The problem we have is that we never know how many IPs could be stored against a customer, so I'm guessing a function would be the way forward but this is the point I get stuck.
I can remove the 1st IP address into a new column and produce the new list ready for the next removal, also as part of this we would need to create new columns on the fly depending on how many IPs are in the column.
This needs to be repeated for each row
SELECT IP_List
, LEFT(IP_List, CHARINDEX(',', IP_List) - 1) AS IP_1
, REPLACE(IP_List, LEFT(IP_List, CHARINDEX(',', IP_List) +0), '') AS NewIPList1
FROM IpExclusionTest
Results:
IP_List
109.224.216.4,146.90.13.69,146.90.85.79,46.208.122.50,80.189.100.119
IP_1
109.224.216.4
NewIPList1
146.90.13.69,146.90.85.79,46.208.122.50,80.189.100.119
Hello. I need to write a UDF that would split a comma separated list and return 4 values. I need to return the first 4 values and ignore the commas after that. If there are no commas in the string that's passed then just return the table with empty strings. The UDF should accept 2 inputs. The ntext and a position and return a value based on the position.For example: 1,2,3,textshould createPosition | Value-------------------------1|12|23|34|textand return a value based on the position.

I have the following SQL Query:
SELECT user_profiles.userFirstName, user_profiles.userInitial, user_profiles.userLastName, user_types.userTypeDesc, user_profiles.userOfficeIDs, user_profiles.userEmail
FROM user_profiles
INNER JOIN user_types ON user_types.userTypeID = user_types.userTypeID
The field userOfficeID contains a comma separated list of values such as "1,2" to identify that the user is in both the NJ and NY office.
Table office_locations
OfficeID officeState
1 NJ
2 NY
3 CT
I would like the output to be something similar to:
Name Office userOfficeIDs value
John Smith NJ 1
Mary Smith NJ/NY 1,2
Jim Smith NJ/CT 1,3
Mike Smith NY 2
Any direction would be appreciated.

How to use comma separated value list in the where clause?
I would like to do something like the following (Set voted = true for all rows in tblVoters where EmpID is in the comma separated value list).
update tbl_Voters
set voted = true
where EmpID in @empIdsCsv
Where, @empIdsCsv = €™12,23,345,€™ (IDs of the employees)
Since the above is not possible I have done the following dynamic query:
-- Convert the comma separated values to conditional statement like EmpID = {id} or EmpliD = {id}€¦
set @empIdsCsv = 'EmpID=' + substring(@empIdsCsv , 0, len(@empIdsCsv )) -- Remove trailing comma
set @empIdsCsv = replace(@empIdsCsv , ',', ' or EmpID=')
declare @markVoters varchar(8000)
set @markVoters = '
update tbl_Voters
set voted = true
where €™ + @empIdsCsv
--Execute the dinamic query
exec (@markVoters)
The above code generates the following dynamic query:
update tbl_Voters
set voted = true
where
EmpID= 12 or EmpID=23 or EmpID=345
The obvious drawback here is the performance and the limitation of the dynamic query length (8000 chars).
Can someone suggest a better solution with the ability to use comma seperated values in the where clause?
Hi,I'n in an environment where I cannot make stored procedures. Now I needto make a query with a subquery in the SELECT part which gives a commaseparated list of results:SELECTp.id,listFunction(SELECT name FROM names WHERE name_parent=p.id) AS'nameList'FROM projects AS pThis query should return something like:1, "john,mike,petra"2, "bob,carl,sandra,peter,etclistFunction is (of course) not (yet) defined. Is this possible withoutthe use of stored procedures?Mike
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a replace statement like the following:
select  (replace('FMG','FMG','FM'))
So this is straightforward as it will replace the word 'FMG' with 'FM'
However, SSRS is passing a comma separated list like this:
select  (replace('FMG','AFM','FMG','FM'))
And what I need to do is replace the comma separated list of 'FMG','AFM' only. Â I tried this:
select  (replace('''FMG','AFM''','FMG','FM'))
But it still complaining about syntax errors. How do I get the comma separated list to be seen by the replace function?
Hi,
I have a table of users, a table of categories, and a many-to-many table linking users to categories.
My problem is that I want to select all the users with an extra column containing a comma-separated list of the categories they belong to.
Here is a stripped-down version of the table fields:
tbl_User
UserId, Email
tbl_Category
CatId, CatName
tbl_User_Category
UserId, CatId
I have tried using the coalesce function to build a string, but can only get this to work for one row at a time:
DECLARE @list nvarchar(100)
SELECT @list = COALESCE(@list + ', ', '') + CAST(CatId AS varchar(4))
FROM tbl_User_Category
WHERE UserId = @UserId
SELECT @list as List
Any ideas on how to add to this to get it to do each row in tbl_Page? Or am I attacking this from the wrong angle?????
Any help would be fantastic!
thanks,
Rob

I have to use the above comma separated values into a SQL Search query whose datatype is integer. How would i do this Search query in the IN Operator of SQL Server. My query is :

set @id= '3,4,6,7'
set @id=(select replace(@id,'''',''))-- in below select query Id is of Integer datatype
select *from ehsservice where id in(@id)
But this query throws following error message:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '3,4,6,7' to data type int.
I have a situation in SSRS to get the common values between the two columns where the values are sorted comma separated as below.Ex:
ColumnA :  abc,cde,efg  Â
ColumnB : cde,xyz,abc  Â
the result in  Â
ColumnC : cde,abc
similarly Column A and B will have n number records. I need to right an expression or the Code function to get the required result in ColumnC. I am using SharePoint Lists as Datasource. Cannot write SQL query to achieve this requirement.
I am SSRS user, We have a .net UI from where we want to pass multi select values, but these values are comma separated in the database. how can I write a sql query such that when I select multi values on my UI, the comma separated values are take care of.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,I'm sure this is a common problem.. to create a single field from awhole column, where each row would be separated by a comma.I can do this for a specified table, and column.. and I've created afunction using VBA to achieve a more dynamic (and very slow) solution..so I would like to implement it using a user defined function in sql server.The problems I'm facing are, that I can't use dynamic sql in afunction.. and I also can't use temporary tables which could build up a'standard' table from parameters given to then perform the function on.So, with these limitations, what other options do I have?Cheers,Chris

Hello, I need your advice.
Here's my scenario.
Table A
------------
id name
100 apple
115 grape
125 tomato
145 melon
Table B
-------------
id Fruits
11 100, 115, 145
12 125, 115
13 100
I thought i could get the list of fruits using this statement:
select name
from A where id IN (select fruits from B where id = 11)
But apparently not, it's working if
select name
from A where id IN (select fruits from B where id = 13)
That means it does not recognize values seperated by comma. Anyone who has any idea how to make it work?
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to find a way to add into a table a flattened (comma seperated list) of email addresses based on the multiple columns of nformation in another table (joined by customer_full_name and postcode.
This is to highlight duplicate email addresses for people under the same customer_full_name and Postcode.
I have done this using a loop which loops through concatenating the email addresses but it takes 1minute to do 1000. The table is 19,000 so this isn't really acceptable. I have tried temp tables, table variables and none of this seems to make any difference. I think that it is becuase i am joining on text columns?
Create table #tempa
(
customer_Full_Name varchar(100),
Customer_Email varchar(100),
Postcode varchar(100),
AlternateEmail varchar(max)NULL
)
insert into #tempa (customer_full_name,customer_email,postcode)

I have some column values:-
employee_salary | dept
30000 1
35000 1
40000 1
I need employee-salary in one row separated by comma by executing a sql query i.e
dept1_salary
30000, 40000, 50000
I just learned to use following query to convert columns to rows separated by comma.
Here is that :
Declare @list varchar(max)
select @list = isnull(@field+ ',','') + columname from table1
select @list
This produces the output I want but I'm confused with the statement. I just learnt it by heart. I don't know the meaning of it particular for the statement "select @list = isnull.............. from table1" . What exactly it does to give the desired output?
I have a table that is used to build rules. The rules point to other columns in other tables and usually contain only one value (i.e. ABC). But one of the options is to add a comma-separated list of SSNs (i.e. 123123123,012012012,112231122). I am trying to build a single query that allows me to leverage that list to get multiple rows from another table.
This obviously works:
SELECT * FROM vw_Person_Profile P (NOLOCK)
WHERE P.PrsnPIISSN_Chr IN ('123123123','012012012','112231122')
But this does not:
SELECT * FROM vw_Person_Profile P (NOLOCK)
WHERE P.PrsnPIISSN_Chr IN (
SELECT '''' + REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(4000),txtFieldValue), ',', ''',''') + ''''
FROM MassProcessing_Rules PR
WHERE PR.intRuleID = 10

I'd like to limit my query results to only items that match any part of a dynamic csv string table but am having some trouble (postgres SQL). Details: I need to calculate how many hours our staff spends seeing clients. Each staff has different appointments that can count toward this. The specified appointments for each staff are listed as comma separated values. My existing query calculates the appointment hours for each staff in a given time period.
However, I need limiting my query to only include specified activities for each staff. My current where clause uses IN to compare the appointment (i.e. activity) listed in the staff's schedule with what is listed an an approved appointment type (i.e. performance target activity). The query runs but it seems to only count one of the activities listed in the csv rather then count all the activities that match with the csv.
select (sum (kept)/60) from (select distinct rpt_scheduled_activities.staff_id as sid,
rpt_scheduled_activities.service_date, rpt_scheduled_activities.client_id,

How do I get the values of a column from a table separated by a comma.
For example
Suppose I have a table with column Levels (below), I want the values of the corresponding column separated by a comma, so that I can use this in a different query to pull these values from a different table
Levels
Level1Name
Level1Value
Level2Name
Level2Value

Hi,
I have a table -- Table1.
It has two columns -- Name and Alpha.
Alpha has comma separated values like -- (A,B,C,D,E,F), (E,F), (D,E,F), (F), (A,B,C).
I need to pick the values of column -- Name , where in values of Alpha is less than or equal to 'D'.
I tried <=, but got only values less than 'D', but was not able to get equal to 'D'.
Any suggestions??
