SQL Server 2012 :: Remove String From Column Post Code Field
Sep 8, 2015
I am querying with a SELECT statement against an address table that has a post code column with corrupt data.
Sample record:- Northants NN4 0NB
Should be NN4 0NB
I have used the following on another column:-
LEFT(A.Addr1,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX ('(', A.Addr1) =0 THEN LEN(A.Addr1) ELSE CHARINDEX('(' ,A.Addr1) -1 END) AS 'Address 1'
but unable to correct this problem?

We have some URLs within a bulk block of text some of which are very long. I need to identify rows where such urls exceed say 100 characters in length in amongst other text.So the rule would be return a record if within the string there is a string (without spaces) longer than 100 characters.

I have an Address column that I need to Substring. I want to remove part of the string after either, or both of the following characters i.e ',' OR '*'
Example Record 1. Elland **REQUIRES BOOKING IN***
Example Record 2. Theale, Nr Reading, Berkshire
Example Record 3. Stockport
How do I achieve this in a CASE Statement?
The following two case statements return the correct results, but I some how need to combine them into a single Statement?
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX(',',Address) =0
THEN LEN(Address )
ELSE CHARINDEX(',' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test'
,LEFT(Address ,CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('*',Address ) =0
THEN LEN(Address)
ELSE CHARINDEX('*' ,Address ) -1 END) AS 'Town Test2'

I have a requirement where i have to insert empty string in column whose datatype is decimal.
I have to replace the column value if it is null then insert it as ' '.
Obviously its generate error msg for conversion, is there any workaround for this. I cannot add 0 or other value as this column is used to generate some output value.
IIF(Column1 IS NULL, ' ', Column1))
I used TRY_PARSE but it insert null value if there is conversion error.

I'm trying to find a specific string (a name) and replace it with another inside of a VARCHAR(7000) field. Unfortunately, there are names like Ted and Ken that I'm trying to replace. I would like to leave words like Broken, admitted, etc... intact.
UPDATEtbl
SETBody = LEFT(REPLACE(tbl.Body, pm.OldFirstName, p.FirstName), 7000)
FROM Table tbl
JOIN Person p ON p.PersonID = tbl.PersonID
JOIN PersonMap pm ON pm.PersonID = p.PersonID AND LEN(pm.OldFirstName) > 2
WHEREtbl.Body LIKE '%[^a-z]'+pm.OldFirstName+'[., ]%
'The problem I'm running into is that the '[, ]%' in the LIKE excludes any record that ends with the FirstName because it is requiring either a space, comma or period after the name. Is there some way to add an empty string to the list of acceptable characters as that would cover any scenario in the data? I would prefer not to add all characters except space, comma and period, but I guess I could do that.

We are using lookup transformation in SSIS 2012. The lookup transformation queries a table with two date columns. When we hover the mouse over the two columns in the 'columns' tab of the lookup transformation editor, the two columns show as DT_WSTR instead of DT_DBDATE. This causes the SSIS package to fail due to data type mismatch.A similar abandoned thread is available at: URL....

Hi,I trying to write a select statement that will return each of my salesmen a region code based on a table of post codes using wildcards... eg.MK1 1AA would be matched in the region code table to MK1%SELECT dn.DEALER_CODE, dn.NAME AS DNAME, rc.REGION_ID,rc.POST_CODE, dn.POSTAL_CODEFROM REGIONAL_CODES rc CROSS JOINDEALER_NAW dnWHERE (dn.POSTAL_CODE LIKE rc.POST_CODE)The above statement works BUT there are some post code areas such asour friends in Milton Keynes that are split into two regions... eg MK1is region id 2 and MK10 is region 3.So a dealer with post code MK10 1AA would be matched to both rowsreturning duplicatesPOST_CODE REGION_IDMK1% 2MK10% 3I think the answer would lie in a subquery which returns the ID of theregion with the longest length of the postcode match (e.g.len(POST_CODE) for the rc table... return only the MAX....any ideas????Any help muchos appreciated, and I apologies now for the naming of thedealers name as a reserve word... not me!Ct

I have tables in my database, tblNames1, tblNames2, tblNames3, and a main addresses table (currently empty). Once I've imported the address data I need to match the addressIDs in the names tables to the Primary ID in the address table based on the values of a field CompanyName (which is common to all the tables) My issue is that I have a huge CSV file with the master address information but obviously SQL server needs to assign foreign keys so the names tables can linked to corresponding rows in address table. It's a a many to 1 relationship as their will be one address with multiple name entries. All the names are normalized so everything can be matched up...

The following works just fine. The table tmpMHPCLMDET does have a column ADMTDT ( varchar(8) ).
While I am adding the sequence of numbers I like it to be sorted based on ADMTDT column.
What that means is the row with the earliest ( smallest ) ADMTDT will get 1 and the next 2 and so on.
Declare @ID int
If Exists ( Select c.name from sys.columns c where object_id = object_id('tmpMHPCLMDET') and C.name = 'ServiceLineID' )
Begin
--Adding a sequence of numbers to the ServiceLineID column.
SET @id = 0
UPDATE tmpMHPCLMDET
SET @id = ServiceLineID = @id + 1;
End;

I am having problems building a CTE. I have a table:
declare @tbl table ( ID int, S time(0), E time(0) )
with the following data:
insert@tbl ( ID, S, E )
values ( 1, '03:00', '05:00' ),
( 1, '04:00', '06:30' ),
( 1, '22:00', '23:00' ),
( 1, '23:00', '23:40' ),
( 1, '23:30', '23:45' )
I need to build a CTE that will eliminate overlaps and produce the following result:
ID S E
-- --------- ---------
1 03:00:00 06:30:00
1 22:00:00 23:45:00

I am creating a report query that returns all unreconciled P/O lines. I am near completion but I am unable to find a way to remove the reconciled records.
I have included a script to produce some sample table, data & query.
The recordset dispalys 6 rows. All reconciled Supplier Invoices are duplicated and have transaction codes 40, 50 and reconcile code of 9 (5024, 921689471).
All unreconciled only appear once and have transaction codes 40 and reconcile code of 0 (4835 & 921978016). These are the only records that I want to show.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Purch_Ledger](
[EPDIVI] [nvarchar](3) NULL,
[EPSUNO] [nvarchar](10) NULL,
[EPSINO] [nvarchar](24) NULL,
[EPDUDT] [numeric](8, 0) NULL,
[EPTRCD] [numeric](2, 0) NULL,
[code].....
Whatever I try I cant find a way to get rid of the unwanted records.

How do I post the currentdatetime (now) into a DateTime field in SQLserver using a formview? I tried a couple different techniques, but had problems with both:
1. TRY ONE: I created a date time field on the SQL server named entrydate. I can not figure out how to post the current datetime into it, without the user inputting it into a field.
2. Second TRY: I tried to change the datetime field on the sql server to a datetime stamp field, but it puts in a binary value. Then I can't read it correctly, and my delete functions don't work.
Thanks Ed

I have a SQL 2012 database that has 10 tables. One of the tables is populated by manual import from CSV file. Each time a user calls custom ASP.NET code., records get inserted into a table called forecast_data with incremental increase in FileID. So first import has FileID of 1, second import has FileID of 2 etc.
Structure:
TABLE [dbo].[forecast_data](
[recID] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[FileID] [int] NULL,
[Project_Name] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
[Stoplight_Status] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
[Country] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
[Region] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
[code]....
What I am trying to do is only keep the data that has the highest FileID (MAX(FileID). I would like to write a store procedure that removes all older data once a new import is written into the table.

Having below data. SHCOMP (Customer ID), CBLNAM ( Customer name), SHDESC (service description), SHAMT (service charge), SHTYPE (F-> From T-> To)
CREATE TABLE #Temp(
[SHCOMP] [numeric](7, 0) NOT NULL,
[SHDESC] [char](35) NOT NULL,
[SHTYPE] [char](1) NOT NULL,
[SHAMT] [numeric](9, 2) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
I need to remove records that have the same ID, Name, Description and Amount summary = 0, For example
SHCOMP CBLNAM SHDESC SHAMT SHTYPE
123 cust1 desc1 45 F remove
123 cust1 desc1 -45 T remove
123 cust1 desc1 45 F remove
123 cust1 desc1 -45 T remove
123 cust1 desc1 45 F
[Code] ....
Results
SHCOMP CBLNAM SHDESC SHAMT SHTYPE
123 cust1 desc1 45 F
123 cust1 desc1 -35 T
234 cust3 desc2 30 F
here is what I did but didn't work because sum is <> from 0 so is leaving all records
select SHCUST, SHDESC, ABS(SHAMT) SHAMT
into #t1
FROM #Temp
group by SHCUST, SHDESC, ABS(SHAMT)
having SUM(SHAMT)=0
order by SHCUST
delete S from #Temp S
join #t1 T on T.SHCUST = S.SHCUST and T.SHDESC = S.SHDESC

In QA we have a two-node cluster with four instances of sql. In trying to add a fifth, I was given an IP address already in use so the install hung.
I removed it from the cluster but it is still there in the registry etc on the node I was working on.
I read about using the maintenance tab of the sql server install to "remove a node" but the terminology is confusing. To me a node is a physical server and an instance is an instance of sql server -- not the same at all but they are often referred to as the same thing.
I definitely don't want to remove one of the servers from the cluster.

I have a stored procedure that does the following
BEGIN TRANSACTION OUTERTXN
BEGIN TRANSACTION
Copy records from live to archive
END TRANSACTION with commit or rollback
execute sproc to write audit log with success or fail
IF transaction was committed
BEGIN TRANSACTION
Delete records from live the archive
END TRANSACTION with commit or rollback
execute sproc to write audit log with success or fail
End IF
END TRANSACTION OUTERTXN with commit if both inner transactions were successful or rollback if either failed
If either inner transaction rolled back execute sproc to write audit log saying whole process is rolling back End IfMy problem is that if the outer transaction rolls back then I am losing the two audit records because they are part of the transaction scope. I want these executes to commit even if the master transaction fails.
