I am writing a SQL query to count records in a table from the last "X" number of days.
There is a dateTime column that I want to base this off of:
Lets say.. I want to count the records that were added in the last 3 days. What is the query I should use to get this value?
Here is what I have and it seems to not be working correctly:
SELECT @TotalListedLast3Days = COUNT (*) FROM myTable WHERE DATEDIFF(Day, DateAdded, getdate() ) <= 3
Can someone help so I am able to get the count of records added in the last "X" days?
Hello,I am writing a query to select records added to a table today, in the last 3 days, in the last 7 days, and so on.Here is what I have (which seems that its not working exactly). -- total listed today SELECT COUNT (*) FROM mytable WHERE DATEDIFF(Day, mydatecolumn, getdate() ) <= 0-- total listed yesterday SELECT COUNT (*) FROM mytable WHERE DATEDIFF(Day, mydatecolumn, getdate() ) <= 1-- total listed in the last 3 days SELECT COUNT (*) FROM mytable WHERE DATEDIFF(Day, mydatecolumn, getdate() ) <= 3I'd like to be able to select the count for records added within the last X number of days. Can someone please help me out? Thanks so much in advance.
Hi Everyone,I use the following to get records from the last two days in MySql:where date_entered <= curdate() and date_entered >=DATE_SUB(curdate(),INTERVAL 2 day)I'm looking to do the same in MS-Sql server but I'm just not getting it.I've got this so far which does not work:where hit_date <= GETDATE() and hit_date >= DATE_SUB(GETDATE(),INTERVAL 2day)then I tried this:WHERE hit_date >= DATEDIFF(GETDATE(), (GETDATE()-2)>Essentially, I need all records from the last two days.Any help or guidance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.-JohnyB
I have a query pulling all records with a disconnect date and a transaction date. However, I would like to retrieve any records that have a transaction date greater than 30 days from the disconnect date. I have been unable to figure out the correct formula to use. I think I need to use the datediff function in SQL, but I've never really used this function before.
What would my statement look like if I have a column in a table (SoftwareInstall) called InstalledOn which stores a date in shortDateString format and I want to select all the records where that date is <= 30 days previous to today's date. Any ideas?
I have a SQL Server 2K db with some 10 tables and I want to setup a nightly job to truncate all db records which are more than 15 days old. Can anyone provide me with steps involved? Any help will be highly appreciated.
On a webform, I have three button ... [7 days] [15 days] [30 days]When the user clicks one of the buttons, I want to return their orders for the past X days. The WHERE clause would include something like this (for 7 days):WHERE (Order_Date BETWEEN CONVERT(DATETIME, GETDATE() - 7, 102) AND CONVERT(DATETIME, GETDATE(), 102))How do I parameterize the number of days?Thanks,Tim
I am little confused in writing the exact query i.e filling the correct details in the query . To simplify let me explain....
I am using the query as
delete MYTABLE where datediff(dd,loaddate,getdate())>5
I have a table now with loadate column which gets the default date and time . The loadate shows correct date and time when the data was imported in the table .
Now suppose if i want to delete previous 5 days records from today ( for e.g today is 20/08/2002 3:40:00 PM ) ideally it should delete all records which are 5 days older from today . i.e from 20/08/2002 3:40:00 PM to 15/08/2002 3:40:00 PM ) But when i execute the datediff command , it deletes the records previous than 15/08/2002 till 15/08/2002. The records from 15/08/2002 to 20/08/2002 remain intact .
I am getting some different results .
Am i missing something in the query or i am confused about the calculation of the dates the datediff command performs .
Is the logic correct or i am missing someting important ?
This is a follow on from one of my earlier threads where I was trying to return one specific record. In this case I am trying to return multiple records for the same person ID and within a number of days range. Snapshot of my date with same PersonID:
And from this I want to check if one record's leaving date of the record is within 7 days of another record's arrival date. I also want to return the record that had a leaving date within 7 days of the next arrival date.I understand that if I self join on personID with the data above I will get 9 rows, for each row I will get 3 matches, I am using INNER JOIN to join to the same table but with a different alias so I assume this is the self join I should be using.
But then how do I process this? I would want to say for record 1 check the leaving date is within 7 days of arrival date of any other record matching that PersonId but not ArrivalID, and return both records.From my snapahot of code I would eventually want to return:
But can't seem to get this using a self join query like this:
select a.PersonID, a.Leaving_date,a.Arrival_Date,a.arrivalID from arrivals a INNER JOIN arrivals b ON b.personID = a.personID WHERE a.arrivalid != b.arrivalid and DATEDIFF(DD, b.[Leaving_date], a.[Arrival_Date]) <=7 and DATEDIFF(DD, b.[Leaving_date], a.[Arrival_Date]) >=0
I want to get all records that are 7 days pass today's date and not equal to today's date. Don't know how to write it so I can get records 7 days old but with this procedure I'm still getting records that are due today. Hope this makes sense. Can someone assist me. select * from libraryrequestwhere duedate > getdate() and duedate != getdate()
I have a scheduled job which does an text file import in my database . The data gets appended in my table every day from this import job .
Since my table is growing every day , i want to truncate the table after the data has been collected for three months i.e 90 days . The table will be empty and the new data will flow in through the import .
Any thoughts how to do it through query and schedule it ???

My VB.Net application connects to MSSQL. It is always running fine for a few days, but encounters "incorrect syntax" as following unless the server is restarted.
---- Exception occurred System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040E14): Line 1: incorrect syntax near 'CDO'. at ADODB.ConnectionClass.Execute (String CommandText, Object& RecordsAffected, Int32 Options) ----
There are a few applications in the server. If certain service is stopped, my program continues to run. So I am sure that the MSSQL connections have been taken up, which causes the error. How to prove it? And is there any way to reserve some DB connections to a particular application only?
Thanks for any hint!
I attach my codes below. Anything wrong with the way that I handled the ADODB?

Perhaps youcan email me the Demo Package as well.b) so far, what I did was,- I have datemodified field in my Oracle table so that I can comparewith datelastrun of my DTS package to get new records- records in Oracle having datemodified >Max(datelastrun), and transferto SQL Server table.Now, I am stuck as to where should I proceed - how can I transfer theserecords?Hope u can give me some lights. Thank you in advance.
I'm trying to write a query that returns last 30 days data and sums the amount by day. However I need to do it for every year not just the current one(I need to go back as far as 2000).
declare @t table (id int identity(1,1), dt datetime, amt MONEY) insert into @t (dt, amt) select '2014-11-30 23:39:35.717' as dt, 66 as amt UNION ALL select '2014-11-30 23:29:16.747' as dt, 5 as amt UNION ALL select '2014-11-22 23:25:33.780' as dt, 62 as amt UNION ALL
[Code] ....
--expected output select '2014-11-30' AS dt, 71 AS Amt UNION ALL select '2014-11-22' AS dt, 62 AS Amt UNION ALL select '2014-11-20' AS dt, 66 AS Amt UNION ALL select '2014-11-18' AS dt, 102 AS Amt UNION ALL
I have client table which has client_id Eff_from and Eff_to columns.Eff_from and Eff_to are the dates that client is eligible for service. I need to know the average number of days from the day that he became not eligible and new eligibility date .
select count (*) from MEMBERS,dbo.MEMBER_PROFILE where MEMBER_PROFILE.member_no = members.member_no AND JOIN_DATE between '07-01-2013 00:01' and '07-31-2013 11:59' and email <> 'selfbuy_customer@cafepress.com' and ROOT_FOLDER_NO is not null and email not like '%bvt.bvt'
This returns the count for the month but I want to see what the total each day was.
get the desired results for the following sample data set. I was able to come up with a query that returns the the expected results however only for a given day, so I'd need to union several select statements the get the desired results which is definitely not ideal. I'd like to pass a parameter in (number of days) instead of doing a unions for each select.

We carried out an in-place upgrade on our production server on Saturday - going from 2008 R2 to 2014.
We had tested this method out in dev/test and pre-production with only minor post issues to fix.
However, on production we had an issue whereby checkdb was hitting 100% CPU and caused overnight processes to hang. The checkdb statement was terminated and disabled by a colleague at 1 am.
Since then we have restored this database to a dev server and ran checkdb against it with no_infomsgs and all_errormsgs but it still hasn't finished since Monday morning!
The database is just over 800 GB and whilst checkdb was crippling the cpu, logical reads are less than one. However, sp_whoisactive is showing that it has done 56 million reads so far and this number increases periodically so it looks like it keeps going back to re-check the database with a deep dive.
Also, on a different environment, we ran check table statements and one of them took over 9 hours for a single table but came back clean (see attachment).
We need to wait for the output but the database is still in use in production and the mess will just get worse if it is indeed corrupted.
So I am trying to work out the difference between today's date (GETDATE()) and a Target Date in a specific table (targetdate)
When I use the DATEDIFF function it is including non working days in the calculation (weekends and bank holidays). Although our date calandar table provided to us from a third party supplier will tell you the weekends, it does not tell you the bank holidays.
Luckily there is another table in the database called - ih_non_work_days.
The format of the date is "2014-12-25 00:00:00.000" for example in that table.
How do I using my "targetdate" and today's date calculate in days the differance - excluding the dates that exist in the ih_non_work_days database?
So for now my basic script looks like -
SELECT com.comm_reference AS 'Referance' ,com.current_task_target_date AS 'TargetDate' , DATEDIFF(D,com.current_task_target_date,GETDATE()) AS 'Incorrect Date Calculation' FROM [dbo].[em_communication] as com
I have a date that I need to add 'n' number of business days to. I have a calendar table that has a 'IsBusinessDay' flag, so it would be good if I was able to use this to get what I need. I've tried to use the 'LEAD' function in the following way;
SELECT A. Date, B.DatePlus3BusinessDays FROM TableA A
LEFT JOIN (Select DateKey, LEAD(DateKey,3) OVER (ORDER BY datekey) AS DatePlus3BusinessDays FROM Calendar WHERE IsBusinessDay = 1) B ON A.DateKey = B.DateKey
Problem with this is that because I am filtering the Calendar for business days only, when there is a date that is not a business day in TableA, a NULL is being returned.
Is there any way to do a conditional LEAD, so it skips rows that are not business days? Or do I have do go with a completely different approach?
CREATE TABLE OrderRanking ( OrderID INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, CustomerID INT, OrderDate date ) INSERT OrderRanking (CustomerID, OrderDate)
[Code] ...
Looks fine but what I need is DRP with this:
CustomerID OrderDate 'DRP taking care of the gap in the days' 1 '01-01-2015' 1 1 '01-01-2015' 1 2 '02-01-2015' 1 2 '02-01-2015' 1 2 '05-01-2015' 4 2 '05-01-2015' 4
