I have a little problem that I just haven't been able to solve. I don't think it is very difficult but I can't seem to make it work. Here's the scenario:
I have a database with the following values: Model Make Price DA1100 GTN$88.00 DA1100 GTN $100.00 DA1000 GBN$110.00 DA668 GTN$100.00 DA880 GTN$200.00
In this case DA1100 is listed twice with 2 different prices. I only want to display the one with the lowest price. So the result I want is: Model Make Price DA1100 GTN$88.00 DA1000 GBN$110.00 DA668 GTN$100.00 DA880 GTN$200.00
I need to find the last purchase price for each product. Â If I run the following code, I correctly get 1 result for each productID and the last purchase order number.
SELECT pod.article as ProductID,max(pod.order_ID) as LastOrderfrom apodetail podgroup by pod.articleorder by pod.article
Now I need to add in the price for that product on that orderID. Â I've tried the following self join query, tried it without the join, and tried adding DISTINCT, but they all return more than 1 row per ProductID.
SELECT pod.article as ProductID,max(pod.order_ID) as LastOrder,pod2.rev_price as UnitPricefrom apodetail podjoinapodetail pod2on (pod2.order_ID = pod.order_id)group by pod.article,pod2.rev_priceorder by pod.article
How can I get it to simply add the price to the first query?
I have a robust query that returns a dataset and the data is good, however some of the records contain the exact same data with the exception of the 'Price' field. I want to combine the records that are identical and SUM the values in the 'Price' field. My query and example return dataset is below.
Query: -------- select distinct 'On-Demand' as 'Business Line', o.OrderID as 'Order #', isnull(d.DisplayCode,'UNK') as Hub, isnull(rz.RouteID,'UNK') as 'Default Route', 'On-Demand' as 'Assigned Route',
I have 2 tables: Order(ID, Quantity) and Product(ID,Name, Price) and I want to add a calculated field in Order table based on the price column in the Product table. How do i do that?
this query returns the values i want in the table.
select a.quantity * b.price from tblCustomerPurchases as a join tblProduct as b on a.ID=b.ID
I am developing basket and need a simple way to get price x quantity + total price.
I get back a recordset which has a varying number of items, each item has a price and quantity. Using SELECT ((productprice)*(productquantity)) AS subtotal, product name, productid
I don't know how to add all subtotals to get a total, I have tried putting in SUM but but cant get it to work.
IDBuyDotComPriceCompanyIDShadowOf AB CIRCLE PRO199.99203 AB CIRCLE PRO-b2199.99203AB CIRCLE PRO AB CIRCLE PRO-TB249.99344AB CIRCLE PRO AB CIRCLE PRO-TB-S10344AB CIRCLE PRO
I need to update the price of an item where the CompanyID is 344 and the ShadowOf is not null. The value in ShadowOf is the same as the ID that I want to get the BuyDotComPrice for. It should be simple, but I keep getting errors.
I am using the code below to get all the children of a particular product and it is working fine. How to get the particular product's id in the select statement. for example, i need to show 891 in a separate column for all the records returned by the query below.
DECLARE @Hierarchy TABLE (Product_Id INT, Parent_Product_Id INT) INSERT INTO @Hierarchy VALUES (123, 234) INSERT INTO @Hierarchy VALUES (234, 456) INSERT INTO @Hierarchy VALUES (456, 678) INSERT INTO @Hierarchy VALUES (678, 891) INSERT INTO @Hierarchy VALUES (891, NULL)
CREATE TABLE #tree ( Childid varchar(20), Parentid varchar(20) ) INSERT INTO #tree (Childid,ParentId) SELECT '123' , null UNION ALL SELECT '456' , '123' UNION ALL SELECT '789' , '456' UNION ALL SELECT '870' , '456' UNION ALL SELECT '985' , '870';
I've got a fairly large hierarchy table and I'm trying to put together a query to find the lowest level descendants of the hierarchy. I think there must be some way to use the "Breadth-first" approach that's stated in the MSDN technet sites about SQL Server HierarchyID but i'm not sure how to write the necessary T-SQL to traverse that. I know I can get all the descendants of a parent node like this
SELECT * FROM AdventureWorks2012.HumanResources.Employee WHERE OrganizationNode.IsDescendantOf(@ParentNode) = 1
However, this query returns all levels for that parent's branch. If I just wanted list of employees that were at the lowest level of the branch(es) for this parent node, how would I do this?
Why SQL Server 2000 Enterprice Edition price is so much higher than Standard Edition. I saw the SQL Server 2000 Editions Comparison and i did't find any good reasons.
I want to upgrade 5 SQL Server 6.5 production boxes to SQL Server 7. I got SQL Server 7.0 pricing and licensing list from www.microsoft.com/sql/70/gen/pricing.htm and I think I should buy 5 SQL Server 7.0 Combined Product/Version/Competitive Upgrade (Since I have been using SQL Server 6.5, I don’t need to buy the full product. Is this right?). I am not sure if the upgrade offer (the price is much lower than the full product offer $699/$1399) includes the SQL Server 7.0 both software and access license.
Does anyone know of a SQL Server product that would let me do the following?Connect to the instanceConfigure thresholds like,1.Show databases not backed up in the last X days2. Show databases that are full that have logs not backed up in the lastx days/hours.3. Show jobs that have failed in the last x days.I would then like to click a process button and have it bring back anythingthat is outside those thresholds?, any thing like that in a windowsapplication?
How can the licensing product key with which SQL Server is installed be replaced/updated? If this is possible, will the same procedure apply both to SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005?
The SQL server 2005 is needed to be put for user's access as database backend for VB.net application. We need only one system for development. Which is best suited for our application?
Is there any way to change product key after installation of SQL Server 2005 or must be SQL Server reinstalled. We have used wrong one for our customer because carelessness. Any problem if customer use product with old product key, but have a legal licence for product?

Partitioned Table Parallelism
Partitions enable organizations to manage large growing tables more effectively by transparently breaking them into manageable blocks of data. SQL Server 2008 builds on the advances of partitioning in SQL Server 2005 by improving the performance on large partitioned tables.
Star Join Query Optimizations
SQL Server 2008 provides improved query performance for common data warehouse scenarios. Star Join Query optimizations reduce query response time by recognizing data warehouse join patterns.
Grouping Sets
Grouping Sets is an extension to the GROUP BY clause that lets users define multiple groupings in the same query. Grouping Sets produces a single result set that is equivalent to a UNION ALL of differently grouped rows, making aggregation querying and reporting easier and faster.
Change Data Capture
With Change Data Capture, changes are captured and placed in change tables. It captures complete content of changes, maintains cross-table consistency, and even works across schema changes. This enables organizations to integrate the latest information into the data warehouse.
MERGE SQL Statement
With the introduction of the MERGE SQL Statement, developers can more effectively handle common data warehousing scenarios, like checking whether a row exists, and then executing an insert or update.
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) Pipeline Improvements

Currently have a single hard coded file path to the SSRS config file which parses the file and provides the reporting services web service url. Â My question is how would i run this same query against 100s of servers that may or may not share the same file path as the one hard coded ?
Is there a way to query the registry to find the location of the config file of any server ? which could be on D, E, F, H, etc.Â
I know I can string together the address followed by "reports" and named instance if needed, but some instances may not have used the default virtual directory name (Reports).
Am I going about this the hard way ? Is there a location where the web service url exists in a table ? I could not locate anything in the Reporting service database. Basically need to inventory all of my reporting services url's.
OK, this should be an easy one but my brain isn't quite working right now.
I have a table, we'll call Table1 like so:
ProductID Supplier Cost 12345 A 14.50 12345 B 13.49 12345 C 12.00 43222 A 15.00 43222 B 15.21 43222 C 13.99 12312 B 14.00 15421 A 21.99 15421 C 20.00
And I want to Get the name of the Supplier with the Lowest cost, I know I can go like:
SELECT ProductID, MIN(Cost) FROM Table1 GROUP BY ProductID
and get the lowest cost, but what would be the most effiecent way to get all three fields returned by the query? I need the ProductID, Supplier and Cost.
@AppId AS Application_Id , MB.POLICY_ID AS Policy_Id , MH.BFN_CHG_DATEAS Date_Of_Disinvestment , AD.X_INVEST_AMT AS Original_Investment_Value , MB.TOTAL_AMOUNT AS Encashment_Value , WH.TOT_COMMISSION AS Top-Up_Commission
FROM: I select from lot of table, as specified from my select statement
My Aliases returns just one values, of which that's what I am expecting, so I need to make a comparison between Original_Investment_Value and (Encashment_Value + Top-Up_Commision), and return the lowest value
Is there a more elegant way to do the following?...declare @d1 datetime, @d2 datetimeset @d1 = '2005-01-01'set @d2 = '2005-02-01'selectcasewhen datediff(dd,@d2,@d1)is nullthen coalesce(@d1, @d2)when (datediff(dd,@d2,@d1)> 0)then @d2else @d1endCheers,..N
Hi, this seems to be an easy question but I can't find a quick answer to it. I have an asp page that communicates with a database and I want the following example to work...
Insert 5 records into the DB with primary keys 1-5. Remove record with key number 2.
Now, if I insert a new record I want it to take the smallest available key number (in this case number 2). This will save space in the database and keep the key numbers from increasing forever.
Does auto increment work like this? If not, how do I do it?
I inherited some SQL 2005 server boxes with NO CDs to be found...Is there any easy way to verfiy if these SQL boxes were trial edtions or full licensed production version...?
Hi --- I would like a few users to be query tables, run (create ?) stored procedures, etc. on a SQL 2005 Workgroup database (the sql server is on a dedicated server)...
Will the Toolkit version (or any other version) support this?
I'm using sql express 2005. I need help with buliding a view.
I'm trying to join two tables and then, if duplicate ID's exist, retrieve the row with the lowest value in a specific column.
For instance:
TableHousehold:
ID Name Status
001 The Smith€™s A
002 The Jone€™s A
003 The Adam€™s A
004 The Grant€™s A
TableResidents
Pk HouseholdID ResidentID Name Gender
1 001 1 Mary Smith F
2 001 2 Jason Smith M
3 001 3 Rachel Smith F
4 002 1 Mike Jones M
5 002 2 Sara Jones F
6 003 2 Erik Adams M
The resident ID is auto increment and assigned by the server. It is possible for resident 1 for each household to have been deleted. It is also possible that a household does not contain any residents. Therefore, I wish to join these tables and return this:
ID HouseHoldName Status ResidentName Gender
001 The Smith€™s A Mary Smith F
002 The Jone€™s A Mike Jones M
003 The Adam€™s A Erik Adams M
004 The Grant€™s A null null
There are other columns in both tables that I will want to join, but for simplicity, the above example illustrates my need.
I was able to accomplish this by creating two views. But I€™d like to try and do this in one.
I am trying to get information of SQL Server licensed key which is installed on our servers. I am using SQL Server 2005 standard edition. Is there a way to find out the product key which is installed on servers. I did some searches and found some thirdparty software to get that information but I don't want to use them on production, is there a way which microsoft recommends.
