SQL Server 2012 :: Splitting Column Value While Keeping Existing Data?
Jun 22, 2015
Currently I have a column with multiple postcodes in one value which are split with the “/” character along with the corresponding location data. What I need to do is split these postcode values into separate rows while keeping their corresponding location data.
For example:
PostCodeLatitudeLongitude
66000/6610042.6965952.899370
20251/2027042.1964719.404951
Would become
PostCodeLatitudeLongitude
6600042.6965952.899370
6610042.6965952.899370
2025142.1964719.404951
2027042.1964719.404951
how this can be done?

Need to change the datatype of existing column which has huge data.
I'm performing below steps
1. Create new column with correct datatype in the same table
2. copy data into new column
3. drop indexes on column
4. <<<>>>
now the existing column also has many SP dependent and I do not wish to drop them.
5. rename existing column to xxx
6. rename new column to correct column
7. drop old column
8. make required indexes

How do I write a query using the split function for the following requirement.I have a table in the following way
Identity Name Col1 Col2 Col3
1 Test1 1,2,3 200,300,400 3,4,6
2 Test2 3,4,5 300,455,600 2,3,8
I want an output in the following format
Identity Name Col1 Col2 Col3
1 Test1 1 200 3
1 Test1 2 300 4
1 Test1 3 400 6
2 Test2 3 300 2
2 Test2 4 455 3
2 Test2 5 600 8
If you see the data, first element in col1 is matched to first element in col2 and 3 after splitting the string.

Here's the resultset:
Main
CC-09-00032-D
CC-09-00113-A
PR-10-01004-2
Expected result:
P C
PR-10-01004-2 CC-09-00032-D
CC-09-00113-A
What I need is split the data into two columns if data in column Main starts with 'PR-' then output result to column P and if it starts with 'CC-' then to column C (the output needs to be in one table).

I have some transactions with the same card number that needs to add value amount to its existing balance. For example:
Card Number Balance Amount Issue Date Issue Branch.
4000111122223333 $100.00 10/1/2015 123 <= This is an existing row in Card Number SQL table.
Now, the same card number with additional $50 dollars that I want to add to this card number to make the total to become $150. This additional $50 is from another transaction table. On the contrary, I will have -$20 from the same card number in different transaction that I will need to deduce $150-$20 to become $130. How can I update the card number table with debit/credit transactions to keep the outstanding balance?

I have a very interesting problem in T-SQL coding for which I can't figure out the solution. Actually there is a Line_1_Address column in our data warehouse address table which is being populated from various sources. Some sources have already concatenated house number + street address fields in the Line_1_Address column whereas one source has separated columns for both data fields.
Now I'm trying to extract data from this data warehouse table and I need to split the house number from street address and load it into separate columns in my destination table. In case there is no data for house number then I should load it as NULL.
The issue is that data in this Line_1_Address column is very inconsistent so I don't know which functions to use. Here is some sample data for your consideration:
Line_1_Address
101 E Commerce ST
120 E Commerce ST
2 Po Box
301 W. Bel Air Ave
West Main Street, PO Box 1388
[Code] .....

I have a large poorly designed table (inherited) With a Name field that contains comma delimited text containing address information. I need to do several things with it but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any true consistency in it. When it displays in its own text box it works by placing each section on a new Line and looks ok.But I need to pull it apart and place things like unit number, Building Name in its own column etc. In the data it could be in either the 2nd,3rd, 4th, dependent on what came 1st. the data looks some thing like the following
unitNumber/StreetNumber Space StreetName (Building Name), Subub,City,Country
Some addresses won't have unit number or Suburb or country so when splitting you could have Suburbs and Citys in multiple columns even if you try and stagger the split process.Has any body go a good tool or reference site for dealing for this sort of problem. I have a table that I have made up that has some of the street names that could be used for comparing against existing records but it is by no means fool proof due to spelling inconsistencies . I also have another list of Common building names that could be used to compare, remove and place in the new building column.

Running SQL 2005
Current Query is as follows:
SELECT
vPerf.DateTime,
vPerf.SampleCount,
vPerf.AverageValue,
vPerf.MinValue,
[code]....
This query was working well because I used to only be interested in one counter that was returned in the column, which was 'Free Megabytes'...I now have additional data that shows up as 'Total Disk Space'...Ideally, the query would return the total disk space next to the free megabytes on the same row for the same disk drive. Here is a couple rows of sample output:
AverageValueInstanceNameObjectNameCounterName
44549 C: LogicalDiskFree Megabytes
44548 C: LogicalDiskFree Megabytes
69452 C: LogicalDiskTotal Disk Space
69452 C: LogicalDiskTotal Disk Space
This is the ideal format, the average value column goes away:
InstanceNameObjectNameFree MegabytesTotal Disk SpaceC: LogicalDisk44549 69452

Hi
I have a table which has data "dumped" into it nightly and i need to create a "clean" table. Below are some sample rows:
1|name1|john|1234
2|name2|fred|2378
DS|address1|address2|postcode|telephoneno|area|propertytype
all the columns are separated with a "|" but the amount of columns are not fixed, so in lines 1 & 2 they are 4 columns and in line 3 there is 7 columns
thanks in advanced

I'm quite new to SQL. I'm able to extract the info that I need, but only into a result of one row, like:
Order header | Order details
ID | Customer name | Customer address | Product number | Product name | Quantity | Price | Product number | Product name | Quantity | Price
2 Andy Andy's way 2 24 Glue 3 35 39 Oyster 2 9
I would like the query to return it in this way:

Is it even possible?

I am looking for a way to create a temp column who's value would take the value of another column and prepend a value like this to it "domain". This is the Select statement I currently have:
SELECT Nalphakey,[Last Name],[First Name],[User Name],[E-mail Address],[User Name]
FROM SkywardUserProfiles
I understand how to create an Alias for an existing column, but not sure how to do what I am wanting. I also understand that the following will do the concatenation that I need, but I have only used it in an UPDATE query, and I'm not sure how to use it within a Select statement or if that's even possible:
domainName=CONCAT('domain',User Name);

Looking for returning multiple entries from a time span. I have a date, start-time, end-time and duration. I need the start-times separated in a list. It's fine if temp tables are needed - I have that clearance.
Entry might look like:
(datetime) date: 7/10/2014
(int) start-time 820
(int) end-time 1000
(int) duration 20
The result would needed:

I have a table which is already populated with data (Microsoft SQL 2008). I have now created a new column (int) which i want to populate with sequential numbers so that the new column created will serve let me know how many records exist in the table at a glance.
what SQL statement I need to write that will automatically polulate the newly created column with 1,2,,3,4,5 etc so that I can sort of number the records within the table.
I have 50000 records which I need to number and I really dont want to number the column manually via hand editing.

I have a database table that was designed by someone else, and I'm trying to see if I can normalize the pattern. Here's the dummy table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[BadTox](
[PatientID] [int] NULL,
[Cycle] [tinyint] NULL,
[ALOPECIA] [tinyint] NULL,
[Causality1] [tinyint] NULL,
[Code] ....
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 have created some dynamic sql to check a temporary table that is created on the fly for any columns that do contain data. If they do the column name is added to a dynamic sql, if not they are excluded. This looks like:
If (select sum(Case when [Sat] is null then 0 else 1 end) from #TABLE) >= 1 begin set @OIL_BULK = @OIL_BULK + '[Sat]' +',' END
However, I am currently running this on over 230 columns and large tables 1.3 mil rows and it is quite slow. How I can dynamically create a sql script that only selects the columns in the table where there is data in a speedier manner. Unfortunately it has to be on the fly because the temporary table is created on the fly.

We are storing changed data of tables into XML format for auditing purpose. The functionality is already achieved. We are using FOR XML Path clause to convert relational data of tables into XML format.
Now, a table is having column name with '(' . For example name of the column is, ColumnName(). In this case we can not convert into XML using For XML clause. Showing error as,
Column name 'columnName()' contains an invalid XML identifier as required by FOR XML; '(' (0x0028) is the first character at fault.
