SQL Query To Check Against A List

Jul 23, 2005

SQL gurus...

I have one table of items that is the master file. We will call this Table A.


I have another table that contains few, some or all items from Table A. We
will call this Table B.

I want to run a query that compares the list of items on Table B against the
master list on Table A.

If the item is not present on Table B, show it in the SQL results.

Best way to achieve this? I am looping and doubling results in my sql tries.

Daily Check List

Mar 27, 2006

I need to create daily check list for SQL 2000. Here is what I have done:

1. Check the connectivity of each server over the network. (Ping/open Enterprise Manager and proof connection)
2. Check whether the services are running for each server. (Green light)
3. Check the scheduled tasks on the production servers are running normally. Enterprise Manager of each server or your email (Set up SQL Mail to notify you).
4. Check the hard disk space available on the SQL Servers.
5. Check all the database and transaction log space on each server. If the database or transaction log space runs out, the transactions will fail.
6. Check NT event Logs for any error messages.
7. Check SQL Error Logs for any errors occurring within SQL Server.

My question is: any other tips & ideas for every day routine?

Thank in advanced!

Items In List A That Don't Appear In List B (was Simple Query...I Think)

Jan 20, 2005

Ok, I want to write a stored procedure / query that says the following:
Code:
If any of the items in list 'A' also appear in list 'B' --return false
If none of the items in list 'A' appear in list 'B' --return true


In pseudo-SQL, I want to write a clause like this

Code:

IF
(SELECT values FROM tableA) IN(SELECT values FROM tableB)
Return False
ELSE
Return True


Unfortunately, it seems I can't do that unless my subquery before the 'IN' statement returns only one value. Needless to say, it returns a number of values.

I may have to achieve this with some kind of logical loop but I don't know how to do that.

Can anyone help?

Query With Multiple ID To Check And Response...

Jan 27, 2007

Hi there, I tried to make it different as usual but i´m stacked into this problem:Supose TABLE DetailsID_DET    ID_CAR    DETAILS1              3             1,2,3,4,5,62              4             2,43              5             5,6,7,8andTABLE  Details_ItemsID_DI       DETAIL_NAME1             Stereo HiFi CD2             Alarm3             AirConditioning4             LeatherSeats5             Pro Wires6             Aluminium WheelsThe problem appears when i need to bring CAR DETAILS (NAME) from TABLE DETAIL_ITEMS.Mi guess i that I should make something like:SELECT * FROM DETAILS_NAME WHERE id_di = ((  Array(i) FROM  Details  )) one by one...I really dont know how to face it.First I thought in bringing ALL details_Items (datafieldtext = id_di and datavaluetext=Details_names) into a dataview.And then "somohow?" filter this dataview according with the Array previuosly splited by me with a For each function.Then I thought "Perhaps" there is a simpliest way to do that using SQL views, o advanced SQL QUERYS.and Finally I thought that creating a VIEW in for both TABLES would be great.The point is that, neither 1,2,3 options, honestly , I dont know how to face them.Thanks in advance, apologise my "rude" English grammar.LUCAS ( From Argentina )

Query Question - Check Before Insert

Dec 1, 2003

I have a table, emailaddresses with an emailaddress field.

before i do an insert from a stored proc, i want to check if the emailaddress is already in the database.

pseudo-code:

if emailaddresssparameter is IN emailaddress then
do not insert
else
insert into table
end

i've got the insert statement and the stored proc, but how do i write the check to see if it's already there? I mean i could do a select * from emailaddress wehre emailaddress=emailaddressparam

but how to i test it? if the count=1 then skip?

here's my proc now:

ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.AddOneEmailAddress

(
@emailAddress varchar(255),
@emailID int=0 OUTPUT
)

AS
/* SET NOCOUNT ON */
insert into EmailAddresses
(email_address)
values
(@emailAddress)
set @emailID=@@identity

RETURN @@identity

Query Response Time Check

Sep 28, 2006

Is there a global variable or something of the sort that would tell me how long it took to execute a query??

I need to monitor my DB response times and we have a query that runs in under 2 seconds. So we want to run this query every couple of minutes and if it takes more than 12 sec to run, we want to send an email to our DB staff...

I know that I could take a time stamp before and after then subtract but I wanted to know if there was an easier way to do it..

Thanks.

How To Check Multiple Records With One Query

Sep 3, 2007

Size, pieces, sizeID, sizecombID (SizeCombination Id)

S, 1, 1, 1

M, 3, 2, 1

L, 3, 3, 1

XL, 1, 4, 1



Now suppose user enters all these 4 records which i will pass as xml string to my stored procedure.

Is there any way to check existense of all these 4 records in this table from the xml data which i pass by using one SQL statement ? Or what is the right way of checking it, Is it through using cursor ??

Finally after checking it should retrun SizeCombID for a existing record, and if record is not existent then it should add these 4 records in table and return the new SizeCombID.

Can somebody pls help on this..

How To Check If Results Of Dynamic Query Exist

Dec 27, 2001

Hello,

I have a dynamic query in the stored procedure, and the code looks something like this:

SET @section_test = 'SELECT sectioncode FROM ' + @tablename + ' WHERE sectioncode = "' + @condition + '"'
EXEC (@section_test)

What I need to do is try to check if the query returns any values using EXISTS (possibly), but at the same time I don't want to return the results of that dynamic query's select statement in my stored procedure. Is it possible?

Thanks.

Regards,
Katya

Query Analyser Does Not Check For Object Existence

Nov 27, 2000

we tried out the following code in query analyser -

create procedure TrialProc

as

select * from sakjdhf


when we executed this piece of TSQL in query analyser, we expected it to give an error or warning that no object by the name of sakjdhf exists ( as actually there is no such table or view in the database ). however to our surprise we got "command completed successfully " !!

does this mean the SQL server does not check for necessary objects when creating a stored procedure ? or is there some setting that we missed out whihch is causing SQL server to overlook the error in the code ?

Query Or Script To Check Link Table

Mar 23, 2008

i'm pretty familiar w/ mysql, but relatively new to ms sql. Since i can do a lot more w/ ms sql, I have been trying to do all tasks in sql queries or scripts, but i'm stumped on this one. I have a table that links two things together. t1 has rows id1 and id2. When a row has these two id's, there is a "link" between them. I'm trying to make a command or script that will see if there is only 2 links for any given id.

for example, it would loop through each row, and run this command:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1
FROM links
WHERE (Id1 = this_rows_id1) OR (Id2 = this_rows_id1)

and again w/ id2

and then i would be interested in any row that only had a count of 2. is this possible?

Parameterized Query For A List Of Items

I am doing parameterized queries from Visual Basic in Visual Studio.

I have a query where I want to do something like this.

Select * from people where city in (<list of cities>)

The problem is I want to build my <list of cities> in Visual Basic and pass it to the SQL as a parameter.

I know I can't do this:

Select * from people where city in (@ListOfCities)

Currently, I'm doing this by writing the <list of cities> out to a separate table, just so I can do the query.

Select * from people where city in (Select CityName from CityTable)

List Items From A Form Query

Feb 24, 2008

Hi,
I am a newbie, this is my first post (please go easy).

Iam at the moment trying to set up a query for someone looking for a property on an estate agents website.

From a drop down menu, the user can:
select an area (where they may like to live) from a list of areas.
select an amount of bedrooms from a list of bedrooms
select a minimum price from a list of prices
select a maximum price from a list of prices.

The query I worked out for this is as follows:
$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM property WHERE area like '$area' and bedrooms like '$bedrooms' AND price BETWEEN '$min_price' AND '$max_price'") or die(mysql_error());

This seems to work fine and shows all the properties that meet the criteria onto my webpage.

However, I then thought, someone may not care which area they live in and want to see all properties in all the areas, so I decided to add the option 'All areas' to my 'areas' list, I then did the same for the other lists, eg 'all bedrooms' option to my bedrooms list and so on.

I am now trying to write a query that incorporates where the 'all..' option is selected and have become very stuck!
Can someone set me off in the right direction for this.
I hope that makes sense?!?!
