Select Default Value Syntax

From standard SELECT need to display specific column values normally, together with any NULLs in the same column not as NULL. My below effort parses however does not change to <new_value>.
SELECT[Server],
[db_name],
(CASE WHEN last_db_bkup_date IS NULL THEN '<new_value>' ELSE last_db_bkup_date END) AS last_bkup_date, [Backup Age (Hours)]
FROM [tbl]
select * from CurrencyMaster where default=true
invalid syntax near keyword default.
Hi,
I have a parameter whice get his values from query.
The parameter is check as "multi value".
I want the default value for the parameter to be "select all".
How can I do it?
Thanks.
In a select statement select_list, if one of the columns in the result set is NULL, I need to substitute a constant value else I want to return the value in the column. Would I use an IF_THEN_ELSE or CASE expression and how would that look?
Thanks,
Robert
Hi,everyone.
Today I met with a interesting problem. According to Microsoft SQL SERVER 2005 BOOKS ONLINE, there is following SELECT Syntax:
(1) SELECT @local_variable (Transact-SQL)
For example:
DECLARE @i int
SELECt @i=100
(2) SELECt QUERY statement:
SELECT [ ALL | DISTINCT ]
[ TOP expression [ PERCENT ] [ WITH TIES ] ]
<select_list>
<select_list> ::=
.....
For example,
[AdventureWorks]
SELECT * FROM DatabaseLog
To my surprise, in the given project, I met this kind of SELECT statement,
DECLARE @w_type varchar(10), @i varchar(30)
SELECT @i='3'
SELECT @w_type='OLTPNORMAL' WHERE @i IN ('0','1','2','3','4','5','9',)
SELECT @w_type
The result is:
OLTPNORMAL
However, I have not met with the kind of SELECT statement before. Please give me some advice. Thank you in advance.
All,
When creating a dynamic parameter list from a query, Reporting Services graciously provides a "(Select All)" checkbox. How can I select this checkbox by default so that when a user generates the report, all of the values are selected?
Thanks
I set parameter as Multipul selection.
how to set it as "Select all" by default?
Thank you!
Friends,
I have a report which has a Multi Value Parameter. I want the default to be selected as 'Select All'. Can anyone tell how to get this?
Thanks,

Hello,
Today I was creating a report with a multi-value parameter.
Someone asked me if it was possible to select all by default.
So can someone tell me how to check "Select All" by default?
Found some topics which said to set "Default Values" to "From Query" and use the same query, but that didn't work for me.
Thanks,
Rens
I need to use IF-THEN in a SQL Select statement. Using Google
I have found a couple of obscure references to this but nothing that I
can use. Tried various combinations without luck. Can
anyone point me to a good resource or supply a simple example of proper
syntax? Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Hello,
I have the following statement that I am trying to convert to a "like" statement in a SqlDataSource for a web application. I can't seem to get the syntax correct. Would someone be able to assist with this? Thanks!
SELECT * FROM [Employees] WHERE ([LName] = @LName) ORDER BY [LName], [FName]
Something like below.
SELECT * FROM [Employees] WHERE ([LName] LIKE '@LName%') ORDER BY [LName], [FName]
What is the syntax for making a query using like, the below is my code
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="Search" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DatabaseConnectionString %>"
ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DatabaseConnectionString.ProviderName %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Products]WHERE category LIKE %@category%">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="category"
QueryStringField="category" Type="string" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
Its giving a syntax error but I dont know how to change it.
Please advise, thanks!
I am having trouble with this statement. I am returning multiple rows because I am doing the select statement within the loop. I need to keep the loop somehow because of the where clause of the select statement:
'AND @start not in (select sh_istart from casemas where sh_istart in (select sh_istop from casemas where sh_serial in (53565,53588,53597)))
and @start between sh_istart and sh_istop'
Is there anyway that I can maintain the ability to use the loop but not do mutiple select statements like below:
Also I'm trying really hard not to use temp tables in this example
Result from select statement below
sh_serial
-----------
53565
53597
sh_serial
-----------
53565
53597
sh_serial
-----------
sh_serial
-----------
53588
53597
Desired results:
sh_serial
-----------
53588
53597
53565
Syntax:
declare @start int
select @start = 580
declare @stop int
select @stop = 900
while @start <= @stop
begin
select sh_serial,
from casemas, schilin
WHERE (schi_shser = sh_serial)
and (schi_itemno = '004852')
and (sh_serial <> 600000)
and sh_serial in (53565,53588,53597)
and sh_serial in
(select distinct sh_serial
from casemas, schilin
WHERE (schi_shser = sh_serial)
and (schi_itemno = '004852')
and sh_serial in (53565,53588,53597)
AND @start not in (select sh_istart from casemas where sh_istart in (select sh_istop from casemas where sh_serial in (53565,53588,53597)))
and @start between sh_istart and sh_istop
group by sh_serial
having (sum(schi_qty) + 1 < 4 ))
select @start = @start + 1
end
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks! :o
Hi,
I looked up select case statements and have used them for returning single values, but can't seem to get it working when returning a select statement..
I have my SPROC configured as below, can anyone help me out as to why its not working?
btw previously I had been using something like below, but in this case it wont work as I have to make more changes than just the WHERE genderID = @genderID (hmm, hopefully that makes sense, if not ignore my example lol)
IF @genderID > 2
..
ELSE
........WHERE genderID = @genderID
thanks very much once again!
mike123
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[select_123]
(
@genderID tinyint
)
AS SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT
CASE @genderID
WHEN 1 THEN
SELECT TOP 40 *
FROM tbl
WHERE .......
WHEN 2 THEN
SELECT TOP 40 *
FROM tbl
WHERE .......
ELSE
SELECT TOP 40 *
FROM tbl
WHERE .......
END
I'm trying to order a varchar column first numerically, and secondalphanumerically using the following SQL:SELECT distinct doc_numberFROM doc_lineWHERE product_id = 'WD' AND doc_type = 'O'ORDER BY CASE WHEN IsNumeric(doc_number) = 1THEN CONVERT(FLOAT, doc_number)ELSE 999999999END,CASE WHEN IsNumeric(doc_number) = 1THEN 'ZZZZZZZZZ'ELSE doc_numberEND;When try executing this statement, I get the following error:Server: Msg 145, Level 15, State 1, Line 1ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT isspecified.If I take the "distinct" out, it works just fine, except for the fact that Iget many duplicates.Does anyone have any suggestions?Thanks,Frank

Simple question:
Is there any way to write this in a shorter form:
SELECT fcol like 'X' or fcol like 'Y' or fcol like 'Z'
Maybe something like (which I know it won't work but just to give you an idea what I am looking for)
SELECT fcol like ('X' or 'Y' or 'Z')
I know of this (Full query), but it doesn't work with WILD card characters
select ftype
from engecnentries
where ftype in ('%cone%','%basin%')
any ideas?
I have a table that has unit id, date, time, etc. I would like to select each unit id with the last date it has in the table. The result should have each unit listed once with the latest date in the table.
For Example:
unit id Date Time
00100 01/12/2007 8:00
00100 01/12/2007 8:45
00200 01/12/2007 8:50
00100 01/13/2007 13:30
00300 01/13/2007 13:45
00100 01/14/2007 11:00
00200 01/14/2007 11:30
the result should be:
00100 01/14/2007 11:00
00200 01/14/2007 11:30
00300 01/13/2007 13:45
Hi, I have something similar to the following: CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.MySproc @columnVal int = nullASBEGIN SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyTable.column = @columnVal END If columnVal is not passed into the stored proc i want it to just select everything from 'MyTable' (without the WHERE clause)....how can I do this in as few lines of code possible?thanks
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a report with a dataset/parameter to select the salesperson.

Hi!
I have the following problem:
In my report I have -among others- a multi-value parameter, populated by a query (so I cannot a priori know the content of the list).
I would like my report to start without any user choice, through default parameters, so what I need is the "select all" choice selected by default. How can I achieve this?
[The only default value I am able to pass to the multi-value parameter is one of the elements populating the list, statically writing it in the "Non-queried" section of "Default values": "From query" option seems not to work for multi-valued]
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Is it possible to define a Default value of a column as a select statement (or stored procedure that executes that select)?
My select should look sth like this in order to replace 'AB1236':
select 'AB' + cast((max(substring(col1, 3, 4)) + 1) as varchar(6)) from t_table1
col1 (varchar (6))
....
AB1233
AB1235

I'm trying to help out a beginning DBA and come up with a SQL query. Here is the information I've been given so far.
"I have a SQL database (TEST1_new) with several tables. I need to have some values updated in one of the tables HARR2APP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB1). I need the value that exists in the QTY_SHIPPED field to be divided by 250. I also need to include a WHERE statement for the PLANNED_SHIP_DATE greater than 11/15/2004 and a CATALOG_NO =18053185292 or 18053185285.
Basically, what I need to do is take the value for QTY_SHIPPED for Catalog_NO 18053185285 & 18053185282 and divide the result by 250"
After reading through her statement above about 10 times and guessing a bit, here's what I was able to come up with. I'm sure the syntax is not correct but maybe it's close to being what's needed?
INSERT INTO HARR2APP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB1()
(SELECT dbo.TEST1_new.HARR2APP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB.QTY_SHIPPED LIMIT 1) /250),PLANNED_SHIP_DATE from dbo.TEST1_new.HARR2APP.CUSTOMER_ORDER_LINE_TAB
WHERE CATALOG_NO = ‘18053185292’
OR CATALOG_NO= ‘18053185285’
AND PLANNED_SHIP_DATE > ‘11/15/2004’;
Any help is greatly appreciated.

This (demo) statement is fine in Access, and so far as I can see, shouldbe OK in SQL Server.But Enterprise Manager barfs at the final bracket. Can anyone helpplease?select sum(field1) as sum1, sum(field2) as sum2 from(SELECT * from test where id < 3unionSELECT * from test where id 2)In fact, I can reduce it to :-select * from(SELECT * from test)with the same effect - clearly I just need telling :-)cheers,Jim--Jima Yorkshire polymoth

Have a need to scan a large table to see if a set of criteria have ever been met.
If/when the scan hits its first record meeting the criteria, the scan can be abandoned.
Is there some syntax/option that accomplishes this?
Right now, I am doing a SELECT with criteria against the table and the @@ROWCOUNT gives me a zero, or non-zero value.
But that methodology means that the SELECT has to execute against the entirety of the table.
I'd like to abandon the SELECT as soon as it detects a first record meeting the criteria.
I have a stored procedure with a SELECT statement, that retrieves 1 row.
SELECT name FROM tblNames WHERE nameID = "1"
I want all the NULL values in that row to be change in some default values.
How do I do this?
