SQL Syntax Trouble (Splitting A Field In Two)
Apr 12, 2007
I am able to use the following SQL Statement in Access, but when I try to use it in a View or Stored Procedure for SQL Server 2000, it says the function InStr is not a valid function. Would someone be able to assist me with modifying this query to work in SQL Server 2000. This is Spliting a field called EName into two fields called FName and LName.
SELECT EmployeeID, CountryCode, Branch, SSN, Title, HireDate, Status,
RIGHT(EName, LEN(EName) - InStr(EName, [, ]) - 1) AS FName, LEFT(EName, InStr(EName, [, ]) - 1)
AS LName
FROM dbo.Staging_Employees
Thank You,
Wayne

Ok, run this...
SELECT * FROM dbo.fnListSplit('a,b,c,d,e,f', ',')
-------------------------------------------------------------
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnListSplit
(
@List VARCHAR(8000),
@Delimiter VARCHAR(2)
)
RETURNS @Resultset TABLE (i SMALLINT IDENTITY(0, 1), x VARCHAR(8000))
AS
BEGIN
INSERT@Resultset
(
x
)
SELECTSUBSTRING(@Delimiter + @List + @Delimiter, w.i + 1, CHARINDEX(@Delimiter, @Delimiter + @List + @Delimiter, w.i + 1) - w.i - 1)
FROM(
SELECTv0.n + v1.n + v2.n + v3.n i
FROM(
SELECT 0 n UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2 UNION ALL SELECT 3 UNION ALL SELECT 4 UNION ALL SELECT 5 UNION ALL SELECT 6 UNION ALL SELECT 7 UNION SELECT 8 UNION ALL SELECT 9 UNION ALL SELECT 10 UNION ALL SELECT 11 UNION ALL SELECT 12 UNION ALL SELECT 13 UNION ALL SELECT 14 UNION ALL SELECT 15

I have a table with about 2 million records.
One of the fields has data seperated by a comma. I need to be able to grap the data for each record and split those items into their own table in seperate rows. This is easy in Asp but the page will timeout before it can process all the records.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,Rick

I am reading in data from a legacy system where name data is in one field. The single field includes last name, first name, middle initial(sometimes), and suffix(sometimes).
Due to the optional components it is a bear. I am using a fuzzy lookup on the suffix and derived columns for the first, last, and middle initial. The first name and suffix work, but I'm having trouble with the last and middle initial. The following is the formula I'm using for both. The first name formula is causing an error, and the middle initial is only populating if the suffix exists. If anyone has insight, it is appreciated.
FirstName:
TRIM(SUBSTRING([ARPNAME-T],FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) + 1,FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",2) - FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) + 1))
MiddleInitial:
SUBSTRING(TRIM([ARPNAME-T]),FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",2) + 1,(LEN(TRIM([ARPNAME-T])) - FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) - LEN(PSUFFIX)))

I'm new to SQL and can't figure out how to update my table(StoreItemStatus) that contains the current status for items in eachstore (STORE_KEY, ITEM_KEY, STATUS,...).I get updated status info in a table (I'll call it NewInfo) thathas similar fields. NewInfo may contain multiple records for eachStore/Item, but I will just use the latest status. I'm not sure howto update StoreItemStatus using each record of NewInfo. Any advice isgreatly appreciatedThanks,Paul

I receive a file that will have hyphens between data items such as
123-aed-edr-45r-ui9
1-ed3-45r-rrr-98u
I need to split the values to load into a table that will hold the 5 separate data itens. The fields will always have the hyphens but could be different lengths. Any idea on a best approach to split this in tsql

have a field in a table that has combined lastname,firstname and middle name like
combs,albert mike
woods-athere,jane alice
The last and first name are separated by a comma, and the middle name by a space
I need in tsql to split them to last name,first name and middle name
I used below
select substring (longname, 1, patindex( '%,%' , longname) -1 ) 'firstname',
substring (longname, patindex( '%,%', longname) + 1, len(longname)) 'lastname',
substring (longname, patindex( '% %', longname) + 1, len(longname)) 'middlename'
FROM Demographic_staging
I get the names all split, but I get the middle name with the first name. How can I limit the first name to recoginze the comma, but stop at the space

Dear Forum,
I am adding a new column name to my Stored Procedure called HeadlinerID. It is an Int that is 4 characters long. I seem to be putting this in incorrectly in my stored procedure. I have tried it like: @HeadlinerID int(4), and @HeadlinerID int, and both ways I get the error below:
Error 170: Line 16: Incorrect Syntax near ‘)’. Line 40: Incorrect syntax near ‘@Opener’.
Is there a trick to putting in integers in a stored procedure?
Thanks,
Jeff Wood
Boise, ID
CREATE PROCEDURE Item_Insert( @Title varchar(50), @_Date datetime, @Venue varchar(50), @HeadlinerID int(4), @Opener varchar(150), @Doorstime varchar(50), @Showtime varchar(50), @Price varchar(50), @Onsaledate datetime, @Ticketvendor varchar(50), @TicketURL varchar(150), @Description varchar(1000),

I'm stuck. This is in C#.
I am making the following query:
string query = INSERT INTO region_info(prefix, region, last_update) VALUES ('" + RegionInfo.Prefix + "', '" + region + "', ???TIMESTAMP???);
and then executing
query = query.Replace("???TIMESTAMP???", "'" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd") + "'");
Thus, an example query is:
INSERT INTO region_info(prefix, region, last_update) VALUES ('907209', 'Alaska-Juneau', '20040921');
When I execute this query through my program(uses ADO.net), I get a "COUNT field incorrect or syntax error" exception, but if I run this same query through the query analyzer, it works fine.
Any ideas on what'z going wrong?
Thanks

Hello,I've been searching the web for quite some time to resolve the problemof "1/1/1900" returning in a datetime field in SQL that resulted from ablank (not NULL) value being passed to it through an ASP page.The solution is that a NULL value needs to passed to SQL from ASP.Thats fine...I understand the why the problem is happening and thesolution around it. HOWEVER, I can't seem to get the proper syntax towork in the ASP page. It seems no matter what I try the "1/1/1900"still results. Below are a few variations of the code that I havetried, with the key part being the first section. Does anyone have anysuggestions?!?!?______________cDateClosed = ""If(Request.Form("dateClosed")= "") ThencDateClosed = (NULL)end ifsql="UPDATE rfa SET "&_"dateClosed='"& cDateClosed &"', "&_"where rfaId='"& Request.Form("RFAID")&"'"_____________________________cDateClosed = ""If(Request.Form("dateClosed") <> "") ThencDateClosed = (NULL)end ifsql="UPDATE rfa SET "&_"dateClosed='"& cDateClosed &"', "&_"where rfaId='"& Request.Form("RFAID")&"'"_____________________________cDateClosed = ""If(Request.Form("dateClosed")= "") ThencDateClosed = NULLend ifsql="UPDATE rfa SET "&_"dateClosed='"& cDateClosed &"', "&_"where rfaId='"& Request.Form("RFAID")&"'"_______________Thanks in advance!!!!

Why does the following call to a stored procedure get me this error:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'CONVERT'.
Code Snippet
EXECUTE OpenInvoiceItemSP_RAM CONVERT(DATETIME,'01-01-2008'), CONVERT(DATETIME,'04/30/2008') , 1,'81350'
The stored procedure accepts two datetime parameters, followed by an INT and a varchar(10) in that order.
I can't find anything wrong in the syntax for CONVERT or any nearby items.
Help me please. Thank you.

I have a sql2005 db. I'm trying to perform a query that takes a list of values in a parm, breaks them up and uses them in an IN clause as follows:
<code>
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SelectPartialOrderListByDate] @StoreID varchar(255)ASBEGIN SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT DISTINCT O.OrderID, M.InitialSalesCode, M.DateOccurred, M.ErrorCode FROM dbo.OrderInfo O WITH (NOLOCK) INNER JOIN dbo.Message M WITH (NOLOCK) ON O.OrderID = M.OrderID WHERE O.StoreID IN (@StoreID)END
</code>
The values coming into the procedure are obviously in a varchar string format.
Notice the boldfacing above. The values within this IN clause should be something like this after the conversion: IN (87,108).
How can I accomplish this? I've seen examples of creating a UDF and returning a table, but am not sure how to apply that to my situation via a code sample.
Could someone help me out?

Hi Everyone,I've been given the painstaking project of splitting a single column into multiple columns and rows. I have a solution set up in which I will be posting further down the post but I want to see if there is a much more efficient solution to this.sample data:create table tbl_list(pk_int_itmid int(5) Primary Key,vchar_desk vchar(300));create table tbl_test1(fk_int_itmid int(5) references tbl_list(pk_int_itmid),vchar_itm varchar(60));insert into tbl_list values(1, 'this item');insert into tbl_list values(2, 'that item');insert into tbl_list values(3, 'those items');insert into tbl_test1 values(1, 'A, B - C, D, E - F, G, H - I');insert into tbl_test1 values(2, 'J, K - L, M, N - O');insert into tbl_test1 values(3, 'P, Q - R');into this table:create table tbl_output(fk_int_itmid int(5) references tbl_list(pk_int_itmid),vchar_itmA varchar(60),vchar_itmB varchar(60),vchar_itmC varchar(60));Output in comma delimited form:'1', 'A', 'B', 'C''1', 'D', 'E', 'F''1', 'G', 'H', 'I''2', 'J', 'K', 'L''2', 'M', 'N', 'O''3', 'P', 'Q', 'R'my current solution:create view vw_itm_a as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itm, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itm, charindex('-',vchar_itm)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itm)-charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom tbl_test1where charindex(',',vchar_itm) >1Gocreate view vw_itm_b as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itm, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itm, charindex('-',vchar_itm)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itm)-charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_awhere charindex(',',vchar_itmC) >1;Gocreate view vw_itm_c as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itmC, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itmC)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itmC, charindex('-',vchar_itmC)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itmC)-charindex('-',vchar_itmC)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itmC, charindex(',',vchar_itmC)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_bwhere charindex(',',vchar_itmC) >1;Go;create view vw_itm_d asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmB,substring(substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1), 0, charindex(',',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_a ia union vw_itm_b ib on ia.fk_int_itmid = ib.fk_int_itmidGo;create view vw_itm_e asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmB,substring(substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1), 0, charindex(',',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_c ia union vw_itm_b ib on ia.fk_int_itmid = ib.fk_int_itmidGo;create view vw_itm asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_awhere fk_int_itmid not in (select fk_int_itmid from vw_itm_b)unionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_dunionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_bwhere fk_int_itmid not in (select fk_int_itmid from vw_itm_c)unionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_eunionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_cGo;select fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC into tbl_outputfrom vw_itmIs there a much more efficient manner of handling this column splitting?ThanksDC

I have a table that contains agrrements and contracts with dates. Now I need to calculate some things and I'd like the rows to only have one month per row.
I have rows like:
Agreement, Start, End
ID001, 2004-01-01, 2004-04-30
If I could get these single rows that contains 4 months into a temptable like this:
Agreement, Start, End
ID001, 2004-01-01, 2004-01-31
ID001, 2004-02-01, 2004-02-29
ID001, 2004-03-01, 2004-03-31
ID001, 2004-04-01, 2004-04-30
It would simplify my calculations very much. How to do this with a query or sp?

I everyone, I have been on the admin side of IT for the past 20 years and recently started to do some scripting (VBscript) and a little SQL.
I have developed a solution to meet the needs of some federal auditors, but not really met my needs yet.
What I have done is this.
I use MS Logparser to go out to 64 servers and copy the event logs into a DB on a SQL 2000 Ent. Server.
On the SQL server I have one StoredProcedure that parses out information from the security event log DB and put that info into a temp DB.
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
go
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[stp_SecurityAuditReport]
AS
TRUNCATE TABLE SecurityEvents_Tmp
-- Parse Bank Number & UserName
INSERT INTO SecurityEvents_Tmp(DepartmentNumber, UserName, EventLog, RecordNumber, TimeGenerated, TimeWritten, EventID, EventType, EventTypeName, EventCategory, EventCategoryName, SourceName, Strings, ComputerName, SID, Message, Data)
SELECT
DepartmentNumber = '001',
UserName = CASE
WHEN Strings LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,1,charindex('|',Strings,1)-1)
WHEN Strings LIKE '-|[0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,3,charindex('|',Strings,3)-3)
WHEN Strings LIKE '-|[a-z]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,3,charindex('|',Strings,3)-3)
WHEN Strings LIKE 'Account Unlocked. |%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,21,charindex('|',Strings,21)-21)
ELSE SUBSTRING(Strings,1,charindex('|',Strings,1)-1)
END,
Events.*
FROM Events
JOIN EventsToLog on Events.EventID = EventsToLog.EventID
WHERE SID NOT LIKE 'S-%'
-- Update blank usernames
UPDATE SecurityEvents_Tmp SET UserName = 'NO USERNAME'
WHERE UserName = '' OR UserName = '-'
-- Update DepartmentNumbers with zeros
UPDATE SecurityEvents_Tmp SET
DepartmentNumber = CASE
WHEN UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9][a-z]%' OR
UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]#%' OR
UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]$%'
THEN SUBSTRING(UserName,1,3)
ELSE '001' END
As you can see, we use 3 didgit numeric prefixes on all Departmental employee accounts. This is later used to produce departmenntal user audit reports.
I then have this script in a DTS that exports the report to an excel spreadsheet. (All works well for this purpose!)
DECLARE @TimeGenerated datetime
SELECT @TimeGenerated = TimeGenerated FROM SecurityEvents_TimeGenerated
DECLARE @TimeGeneratedEnd datetime
SELECT @TimeGeneratedEnd = TimeGeneratedEnd FROM SecurityEvents_TimeGenerated
SELECT DepartmentName = CASE WHEN b.DepartmentName IS NULL
THEN 'All Department' ELSE b.DepartmentName END,
a.EventID,d.EventDescription,a.UserName, a.TimeGenerated,c.Email1,c.Email2,c.Email3,c.Email4
FROM SecurityEvents_Tmp a
LEFT JOIN DepartmentList b on a.DepartmentNumber = b.DepartmentNumber
LEFT JOIN EmailToList c on b.DepartmentNumber = c.DepartmentNumber
JOIN EventsToLog d on a.EventID = d.EventID
WHERE b.Departmentnumber in (select Departmentnumber from Departmentlist)
AND a.TimeGenerated BETWEEN @TimeGenerated AND @TimeGeneratedEnd
ORDER BY b.DepartmentNumber,a.EventID,a.TimeGenerated
This combination of utils and scripts does very good for producing generic security reports for branch officers.
But now I am getting requests to justify/explain what is in these reports. The problem I have is that the information needed to delve further into the event logs is in a field called Strings. This field not only changes in length and the amount of fields within this string, but the information in this field changes depending on the type of event record it came from.
This is the Strings field from a failed logon (529)
200jenil|DOMAIN|10|User32 |Negotiate|SERVER|SERVER$|DOMAIN|(0x0,0x3E7)|6920|-|10.190.12.10|48397
And this is from Event ID 642 which was an account being created.
-|381$cmiller|DOMAIN|%{S-1-5-21-3554868564-134719009-1577582102-7972}|Jmotta|DOMAIN|(0x0,0x58F635E)|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|%%1792|-|-
Now, my script does a good job of getting the first user name out but as in the 642 event the second users name would be useful as well. This is the person that created/modified the user account.
So what I was hoping was that I could use a function (or whatever) to automaticaly split the Strings value into it's individual components and put them into an auto-sizing temp table as something like Field1, Field2, Field3, and so on until the end of string.
I could then use a case to get the information needed.
HELP PLEASE!!
Thank You,
John Fuhrman

I have a large db (sql 2005 express) that is, well, basically a mess. It is not normalized properly and contains masses amount of data (due to so much repeating data). To make a long story short - this db needs to be redesigned, but management said no, so that is not an option - so please, no one suggest that that's what I do.
My application creates reports based on this db - the problem is, the sp's are slow - and when a report needs to run several reports, it takes a long time to run. The sp's and db have been optimized as best I can (adding indexes etc.,)
I was wondering if there is a way to split the db - what I want to do is just retain, say 2 years of data in 1 db, and store the rest of the data in the other db, as 2 years worth of data is 95% of what will be queried. I did copy over 2 years worth for testing, and reports that took 30 minutes in the existing db, take less than 1 minute (sometimes even faster) in the new db - a huge improvement.
My problem is how to deal with the times that I need more than 2 years worth of data - how do I query both db's to get my application to read the data from both db's so that it seems that I am only running one db? The new db would be updated daily with new data, but not the old db - so if I had to query 10 years worth of data, I need 2 years from the first db, and then the 8 yeas from the second db.
If anyone can provide some feedback or point me in the right direction of what I should research in order to accomplish the above - I would appreciate it.
If anyone knows of a better solution - please don't be shy - speak up! :)
Thanks - ann

Hello,I have been placed in charge of migrating an old access based databaseover to sql server 7.0. So far, I have imported all the tables intosql server, but now I have come across the issue of needing to split astring variable. For instance, in the old database, the variable forname was such that it included both first and last names, whereas inthe new database there are seperate entities for first and last name.I know that there is a way to write a script that will separate out thetwo strings by using the "space" in between the name, but I'munfamiliar how to do this. Any suggestions? Thanks!Rick

I've read that we need to split data into a training and testing data set. How do I go about that?

This may be a stupid question but I'll throw it out here, is it possible to use sql 2005 to split up pdf files into individual files by a field on the form or an index?
Thanks.
