SQL Server 2012 :: Compare Two XML Variables?
Mar 19, 2015
I'm rewriting a huge FOR XML EXPLICIT procedure to use FOR XML PATH, and need to compare previous output to the refactored one, so i didn't mess up XML structure.
The thing is, i'm not sure that SQL Server will always generate exactly same xml **string**, so i'd rather not compare by:
WHERE CAST(@xml_old AS NVARCHAR(MAX)) = CAST(@xml_new AS NVARCHAR(MAX))
nor do i want to manually validate every node, since the generated xml-structure is quite complex.
compare xmls by their "semantic value" ?

We're converting to new student info system. Sometimes registrar entered the same school into the schools table but spelled it differently. Trying to find all student assigned transfer credits from the same school but the school name is different. My db shows a max of 9 different schools students have rec'd transfer credits. Spending too much time trying to figure out best way to do it w/o a ton of IF stmts. Looking at Soundex and Difference functions. Still looks like a lot of coding. how to compare up to 9 string variables in sqlserver 2008?

how would I compare a list of concrete values?
---table with items
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @items TABLE (ITEM_ID INT, ITEM_NAME VARCHAR(10))
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 10,'ITEM 1'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 11,'ITEM 2'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 12,'ITEM 3'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 13,'ITEM 4'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 14,'ITEM 5'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 15,'ITEM 6'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 16,'ITEM 7'
INSERT INTO @items (ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME) SELECT 17,'ITEM 8'
SELECT * FROM @items
-- table with categories
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @categories TABLE (CAT_ID INT, CAT_NAME VARCHAR(10))
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 100,'WHITE'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 101,'BLACK'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 102,'BLUE'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 103,'GREEN'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 104,'YELLOW'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 105,'CIRCLE'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 106,'SQUARE'
INSERT INTO @categories (CAT_ID, CAT_NAME) SELECT 107,'TRIANGLE'
SELECT * FROM @categories
--table where categories are assigned to master categories
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @master_categories TABLE (MASTERCAT_ID INT, CAT_ID INT)
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 1,100
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 1,101
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 1,102
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 1,103
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 1,104
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 2,105
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 2,106
INSERT INTO @master_categories (MASTERCAT_ID, CAT_ID) SELECT 2,107
SELECT * FROM @master_categories
-- items-categories assignment table
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @item_categories TABLE (CAT_ID INT, ITEM_ID INT)
INSERT INTO @item_categories (CAT_ID, ITEM_ID) SELECT 100,10
INSERT INTO @item_categories (CAT_ID, ITEM_ID) SELECT 105,10
INSERT INTO @item_categories (CAT_ID, ITEM_ID) SELECT 100,11
INSERT INTO @item_categories (CAT_ID, ITEM_ID) SELECT 105,11
[code]....
So now I need to query the table @t4 in and to determine the items that are assigned to category 'WHITE' in master category 1 and to 'CIRCLE' in master category 2.The important thing is to return items that are assigned solely to 'WHITE' in master cat 1 and solely to 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2.In the above example it would be only the ITEM 1 (id=10) that is returned:
1. ITEM 2 (id=11) is not returned because it has the assignment to category 'SQUARE' in master cat 2 additionally
2. ITEM 3 (id=12) is not returned because it has the assignment to category 'BLACK' in master cat 1 additionally
3. ITEM 4 (id=13) is not returned as it does not have assignment to category 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2 but only to 'WHITE' in master cat 1
3. ITEM 5 (id=14) is not returned as it does not have assignment to category 'WHITE' in master cat 1 but only to 'CIRCLE' in master cat 2

Is there a efficient way to compare two different columns of 2 different rows in a data set as shown below.
For eg: I would like to DateDiff between Date2 of RowID 1 and Date1 of RowID 2 of IDNo 123. After this comparision , if datediff between two dates are <=14 then i want to update 1 else 0 in IsDateDiffLess14 of RowID1 . In below example its 0 because datediff of two dates >=14. So, want to compare the Date2 and Date1 in this sequence for the same IDNo. For RowID 6 there is only 1 row and no other row to compare, in this case IsDateDiffLess14 should be updated with 0.
RowID IDNo Date1 Date2 IsDateDiffLess14
1 123 04/10/2013 04/12/2013 0
2 123 05/10/2013 05/11/2013 1
3 123 05/21/2013 05/25/2013 0
4 112 01/10/2013 01/14/2013 1
5 112 01/27/2013 01/28/2013 0
6 120 03/10/2013 03/12/2013 0

I run the script below once a day to keep track of row count over time. I would like to compare the results from today and yesterday to see if anyone deleted more than 20% of data from any given table. How would I do this? I really don't need the data anymore than a day just to compare the results.
Mon - Run script to collect row count
Tues - Run script to collect current row into temp table
,compare all row count in both tables
,purge records from Monday and insert current
Wed - Run script to collect current row into temp table
,compare all row count in both tables
[code]....

What I need to be able to find is any records where the Discontinue_Date is greater than the Effective_Date on the next row for a given Customer ID and Part_ID. This is a customer pricing table so the Discontinue_Date of row 53 for example should never be greater than the Effective_Date of row 54130, these are the records I'm looking to find. So I'm looking for a SELECT query that would look for any records where this is true. Obviously the last Discontinue_Date row for a Customer_ID will not have a next row so I wouldn't want to return that.

I am in process to develop TSql code to identify change in data.
I read about Binary_checksum and hashbyte. Some people say hashbyte is better than binay_checksum as chances of collision are less.
But if we may consider following, chances exist in hashbyte too. My question is what is the best way to compare data to identify change (I can't configure CDC) ?
select HASHBYTES('SHA','121'+'34'), HASHBYTES('SHA','12'+'134'),BINARY_CHECKSUM('121','34'),BINARY_CHECKSUM('12','134');

I'm trying to automate comparing the dacpacs we're generating from out builds against our production server to monitor drift.However, we use scripting variables to define cross database references. The schema compare is showing up all the objects which reference the other database via scripting variable as being different to what is on the server i.e. it reports a change between a table referenced as [$(db)].dbo.Table in the dacpac and db.dbo.Table in the target database.
When I do a comparison in Visual studio between the project and the target database the variables seem to be appropriately replaced and the differences don't show. Obviously this is using a project instead of a dacpac but I'm hoping I can get the dacpac/db compare to behave similarly to the project/db comparison.
Is there a way to define what the scripting variables should resolve to when I run the comparison via msbuild?
Edit: I would prefer not to deploy the dacpac and diff the deployed db against the target database but if that's the only way....

I am trying to write a function to compare the characters between 2 strings and eliminate the similarities to be able to return at the end the number of differences between them.
Having in mind i need the bigger number of differences to be returned also if a character is repeated in one of the 2 words it will be eliminated once because it exist only one time in other string.
I will give an example below to be more clear
--Start
declare @string1 as varchar(50)='imos'
declare @string2 as varchar(50)='nasos';
WITH n (n) AS (
SELECT 1 FROM (VALUES (1),(1),(1),(1),(1),(1),(1),(1),(1),(1)) n (n)
[Code] ....
The differences in first string from second one are 2 (i,m) while the differences in second string from first one are 3(nas).
So the function should return 3 in previous example.

I have three variables
DECLARE @QuantityID uniqueidentifier,
@LengthID uniqueidentifier,
@CostID uniqueidentifier
They are sent to the sproc as null. Since they could be null I need to exclude them from posting to a temp table
Example
DECLARE @QuantityID uniqueidentifier,
@LengthID uniqueidentifier,
@CostID uniqueidentifier
SET @CostID = NEWID()
SELECT @QuantityID as ID UNION ALL
SELECT @LengthID UNION ALL
SELECT @CostID
Two values are null. I want those excluded from this table
Here is the example of what I am trying to do:
DECLARE @QuantityID uniqueidentifier,
@LengthID uniqueidentifier,
@CostID uniqueidentifier
DECLARE @Temp as Table (id uniqueidentifier NOT NULL Primary key)
SET @CostID = NEWID()
INSERT INTO @Temp
SELECT @QuantityID as ID UNION ALL
SELECT @LengthID UNION ALL
SELECT @CostID
How do I insert into @Temp only non null values?

Say you have a table that has records with numbers sort of like lottery winning numbers, say:
TableWinners
num1, num2, num3, num4, num5, num6
33 52 47 23 17 28
... more records with similar structure.
Then you have another table with chosen numbers, same structure as above, TableGuesses.
How could you do the following comparisons between TableGuesses and TableWinners:
1. Compare a single record in TableGuesses to a single record in TableWinners to get a count of the number of numbers that match (kind of a typical lottery type of thing).
2. Compare a single record in TableGuessess to ALL records in TableWinners to see which record in TableWinners is the closest match to the selected record in TableGuesses.

I am writing a custom query to determine if a legacy table exists or not. From My CMS Server I already have all the instances I have to query and I store the name of the instance in the @Instance variable. I cannot get those stubborn ticks to work right in my query. Below I am using the IF EXISTS statement to search the metadata for the legacy table.
DECLARE @Found tinyint
DECLARE @Instance varchar(100)
set @Instance = 'The Instance'
IF (EXISTS (SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI', 'Server=' + @Instance + ';UID=DBAReader;PWD=DBAReader;','SELECT * FROM [DBA].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME = ''TheTable''') AS a))
SET @Found = 1

I can't understand why I get 2 different results on running with a Bracket I get 'NULL' and without a bracket I get the declared variable value which is 'Noname'
Below is Query 1:
Declare @testvar char(20)
Set @testvar = 'noname'
Select @testvar= pub_name
FROM publishers
WHERE pub_id= '999'
Select @testvar
Out put of this query is 'Noname'
BUT when I type the same query in the following manner I get Null-------Please note that the only difference between this query below is I used brackets and Select in the Select@testvar statement
Declare @testvar char(20)
Set @testvar = 'noname'
Select @testvar=(Select pub_name
FROM publishers
WHERE pub_id= '999')
Select @testvar

I have one database with several tables in it (table 1, table2, table3). In each table is two colums (colum1 = a number (201220) and colum2 = a number (0.50). Now, both tables will have rows with the same data in colum 1, but colum two will have different numbers (different prices). My goal is to run a query that will compare both colums in all three tables, take the lower of the three based on colum 2 and spit out the row. Obviously, this would output all rows (around 175k). The point is to create a least cost spreadsheet (csv) file based on evaluating all three tables.

A customer has messed up while moving their databases. After working for a week they found that data is missing in the database.I have two backups, one from the old server and one from the new server today, they have been working in the new one for a week.
I need to compare these two databases and then update the new database with all data that is in the old one but not in the new database. Join the data in the two databases so to say. Both databases are from the same application so they use the same users, schema and so on.

Following an upgrade to SQL Server 2012, our shop's Schema Compare tool (Redgate SQL Compare) is no longer supporting our environment.We are starting to evaluate various 3rd party products to find a possible replacement, and would be interested in what products are favored by other IT shops who do a lot of database work.
Our shop is split about 75% SQL Server, 20% Oracle, and 5% I'll call other. Ideally a product would support SQL Server and Oracle, but our focus is on SQL server right now. On that platform we have ~50 servers spread across DevUATProd environments.In basic terms, we need a tool that can identify schema differences between DBs and generate synchronization scripts to support deploys between environments. Real-time synchronization is not a requirement (nor desirable), as deploys are a gated DBA function in our shop.

I have a process which connects to a SQL server remotely, runs some code, creates a temporary table with an output. I want to be able to select the results of this table into XML (not a problem), put the results into a variable in SSIS, and put the variable results into a SQL table a different SQL Instance. Doing it this way removes the footprint of needing a normal table on the source SQL Server.
