In my select statement I concatenate city+state+zipcode. In some cases the zipcode is 9 digits but is missing the '-'. How can I format zipcode to be '#####-####' when > 5 characters from the select statment.
Thanks,

hi, like, if i need to do delete some items with the id = 10000 then also need to update on the remaining items on the with the same idthen i will need to go through all the records to fetch the items with the same id right? so, is there something that i can use to hold those records so that i can do the delete and update just on those records and don't need to query twice? or is there a way to do that in one go ?thanks in advance!
I have a function that divides the results of 2 seperate datafiffs to provide a ratio. For some reason I cannot get the result to return as a decimal - it is only giving me integers. I have tried cast and converting both the idividual numbers and the results, no luck. If I write the query on it's own, casting the one of the values as decimal will return the right value. Any ideas what I am missing? Here is the function:
Create function fn_FTE( @tkpr varchar(5), @start datetime, @end datetime)
Returns decimal Begin declare
@fte decimal
select @fte =
sum(datediff(dd, (case when eedatebeg < @start then @start else eedatebeg end), (case when eedateend > @end then @end when eedateend is null then @end else eedateend end))) /datediff(dd,@start,@end)
from vw_employ_dates where eedatebeg < @end and (eedateend > @start or eedateend is null) and eudescrip = @tkpr

I have a character string for a zip code field. I am only looking for zip codes in the 01001 - 02791 range. Will where zip_code between '01001' and '02791' work on a character field? It seems to be dropping out some records but I cant find them.....
Hi all, I am trying to change the negatives to (100,000) instead of -100,000. I am using N0 as my format but I dont want to use currency because I dont want the dollar sign. How can I change this? Is there anyway to use currency without the $ sign?
This can be acheived by writing a format expression for a text box, but i wanted this to be acheived in the bar chart where there is no expression(Fx) for format option(Chart Properties ->Data Tab -> Values ->>Value1 -> Edit tab -> Point Labels -> Format code) in the chart.
Please help me if anyone knows the answer to this issue.
Hello, I am attempting to modify an existing matrix report into something a bit more diverse and aesthetically appealing to our users. The problem is changing the size of columns, rows, border types, etc. So far I have not yet been able to locate any custom code samples that refer to ways of changing the overall appearance and properties of the matrix. I am not concerned with the data but in some cases a column's width will need to be larger or smaller based on the size of the data inside it. The strings can range from 3 characters to 15 or more and the number of columns can be just as dynamic in number. If that happens I need to shrink or expand a column to match.
I am familiar with using custom code just not in using it to access the matrix properties.
My first post here. I have an Analysis Services Cube and I need to export some of its data into a flat file (a semicolon separated value file) with fixed length columns.
What I have in Integration Services now is:
DataReader Source (ADO.Net conection) Data Transformation (NTEXT -> WSTR) Derived Column (WSTR -> STR, and some ISNULL validation) Flat File Destination (Delimited by ";")
the thing is I have all the measures and calculated measures in the cube formated with format strings and they work fine when I do a query through the SQL server Managment Studio, but in Integration Services before the columns are written into the file they lose its format.
for example, I have a calculated member called "Deuda Total Nacional" that returns something like this +0001234,00 and I need to take off the decimal separator so it is written into the file like this +000123400 , I'm doing it this way
(ISNULL([Deuda Total Nacional]) ? "+00000000000" : REPLACE([Deuda Total Nacional],",",""))

I'm updating a process that recreates a large table every night. The table is the result of a bunch of nightly batch processes and holds a couple million records. In the past, each night at the end of the batch jobs the table would be dropped and re-created with the new data. This process was embodied in dynamic sql statements from an MFC C++ program, and my task is to move it to a SQL Server 2000 stored procedure that will be called from a .Net app. Here's the relevant code from my procedure: sql Code:
Original - sql Code
-- recreate new empty BatchTable table print 'Dropping old BatchTable table...' exec DropBatchTable --stored procedure called from old code that does a little extra work when dropping the table
-- validate drop If exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[BatchTable]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) Begin RAISERROR( 'Unable to drop old BatchTable!',0,1) WITH NOWAIT End Else Begin print 'Old BatchTable dropped.' End
print 'Creating new BatchTable...' SELECT TOP 0 *, cast('' as char(3)) as Client, cast('' as char(12)) as ClientDB INTO dbo.BatchTable FROM differentDB.dbo.BatchArchives
--validate create If Not exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[BatchTable]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) Begin RAISERROR( 'Unable to create new BatchTable!',0,1) WITH NOWAIT End Else Begin print 'New BatchTable Created.' End
-- recreate new empty BatchTable table print 'Dropping old BatchTable table...' exec DropBatchTable --stored procedure called from old code that does a little extra work when dropping the table -- validate drop IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects WHERE id = object_id(N'[dbo].[BatchTable]') AND OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) BEGIN RAISERROR( 'Unable to drop old BatchTable!',0,1) WITH NOWAIT END ELSE BEGIN print 'Old BatchTable dropped.' END print 'Creating new BatchTable...' SELECT TOP 0 *, CAST('' AS CHAR(3)) AS Client, CAST('' AS CHAR(12)) AS ClientDB INTO dbo.BatchTable FROM differentDB.dbo.BatchArchives --validate create IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects WHERE id = object_id(N'[dbo].[BatchTable]') AND OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) BEGIN RAISERROR( 'Unable to create new BatchTable!',0,1) WITH NOWAIT END ELSE BEGIN print 'New BatchTable Created.' END
The print statements are there because the .net app will read them in and then write them to a log file. Some of the other mechanics are there to mimic the old process. The idea is to duplicate the old process first and then work on other improvements.
This works in Management studio. The .Net App reports that the old table was dropped, but when it tries to create the new table it complains that "There is already an object named 'BatchTable' in the database." I have verified that the old table is removed.
I have statement which is comparing a smalldatetime column to literal string as follows:
sales_date ='21-9-2004 0:0:0.000'
when I run the statement in query analyzer it bombs out with:
Server: Msg 296, Level 16, State 3, Line 1 The conversion of char data type to smalldatetime data type resulted in an out-of-range smalldatetime value.
If I alter the format of the date literal to '2004-09-21 00:00:00' the statement works.
Is there anyway of forcing the statement to treat '21-9-2004 0:0:0.000' as '2004-09-21 00:00:00' without modifying the statement itself ?
Hi all, Suppose I have set a CHECK constraint to a column where Salary field is not permitted to be less than 1000 or greater than 10000. In this situation, when I insert a new record with salary as 10, using a stored procedure from Visual Studio, how will I trap the error from C# Code? Thanks Tomy

I have one query which uses a join query to gather all the projects that should show up in someone's list over a period of time (returns and id (int) and name (varchar) paired dataset). I want to do a separate query that takes that list and selects all projects (same paired set ... id and name) EXCEPT where it matches an id on a row of the given result set. The one query looks like this ..DECLARE @startDate datetimeDECLARE @endDate datetimeDECLARE @userId UNIQUEIDENTIFIERSELECT @startDate = ppStartDate FROM ppTablewhere payPeriodID = @payPeriodIDSELECT @endDate = ppEndDate FROM ppTable WHERE payPeriodID = @payPeriodIDSELECT @userId = userID FROM usersTable WHERE userName = @userNameSELECT DISTINCT p.projectID, p.projectNameFROM projectsTable pLEFT JOIN projectMemberhsip m ON m.ProjectId = p.ProjectIdLEFT JOIN timeEntryTable t ON t.ProjectID = p.ProjectIdWHERE t.TimeEntryUserId = @userID AND t.TimeEntryDate >= @startDate AND t.TimeEntryDate <= @endDateORm.UserId = @userID I want to get the same selection from projectsTable WHERE it's not anything from this result set.Haven't been able to get it by modifying the WHERE logic. Is there a way to select all WHERE id != (resultSet from this SELECT)? TIA!
I am trying to round this data, but can't find a good resource on this. If my results are 15.6 I need it to round down to 15.5 and if my results are 15.4 I need it to round down to 15.0.ROUND(DATEDIFF(mm, employee.emp_begin_accrual, GETDATE()) * employee.emp_accrual_rate - SUM(ISNULL(request_1.request_duration, '0')), .5) Any help would be greatly appreciated. A link to a good reference on rounding would help too.Thanks in advance!!!
I need to insert in TableB the results of a select over TableA so i used:
Insert into TableB (col1, col2, col3) select c1, c2, c3 from TableA
and works OK.
But now i need to use a Stored Procedure "Insert_in_TableB" that handles all the process of checking values, inserting data, logging steps, etc etc. That receives via its parameters the values for validate, etc and then insert them in TableB.
So, how can i execute that procedure (and define its parameters) in a easy way? Something like
Exec Insert_in_TableB (select c1, c2, c3 from TableA) or Select c1, c2,c3 into Insert_in_TableB...
I am creating a database in SQL2K for collating test results taken at regular intervals across several different sites and frequencies. The table will look something like this:
SiteDate Data A01/01/2013 ... B02/01/2013 ... C03/01/2013 ... A04/01/2013 ... B05/01/2013 ... C06/01/2013 ... And so on...
In total there will be about 300 sites, with up to 12 records per site every year. I want to be able to create a view showing the 4 most recent results for each site. Is there a simple way of doing this? Obviously getting the most recent result for each site is quite straight forward, but I can't work out how to get the last four. Unfortunately this is on a 2k box, although I could (at a push) use a 2k8 box if needed.
I want to create a stored procedure that returns a list of records froma table. But depending on a userID value given only certain recordswill be returned that they have access to.I think this might be hard to do in a single SELECT statement becausethe user might also belong to a group that might have permission, etc.Can you do something like this pseudo code in a T-SQL procedure?DECLARE cur CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM myTableOPEN curFETCH NEXT FROM curWHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGINif( accessGranted(curRecord.id) ){ addRecordToResultSet() }else { ommitRecordFromResultSet() }END
I have two tables I selecting name using like with %string% from the two tables but I need to order the result comes from the two table: 1- the exact match for the search string come first from the two table. 2- and the partial match comes last after the exact match.
this is my DDL for the two tables :
USE [Northwind] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[Person] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:24 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Person]( [PersonID] [int] NULL, [Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
second table: USE [Northwind] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[Members] Script Date: 04/25/2008 14:33:52 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Members]( [MemberID] [int] NULL, [Type] [char](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL, [Email] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
and this my search query I have it in a stored Proc.
select *

SELECT PersonID, Type, Name, email

I have an SSIS conversion issue. I'm pulling two tables from a DB2 database into SQL 2005. One table has a list of work orders, and the other has a list of work order comments. There is a unique identifier between the two tables so that a join can be used, however, due to size limitations, I need to be able to combine both tables.
The end result will be replicated out for SQL Mobile Edition and the file is too large when both tables exist so I am wanting to concatinate all the comments for each work order into a single text field in the work orders table.
Here is what I am wanting to accomplish:
UPDATE tblWorkOrdersSET Comments = (SELECT Comments FROM tblComments WHERE tblWorkOrders.ReqNum = tblComments.ReqNum)
I know that this statement will not work because there is a one-to-many relationship between the tables so each work order could get multiple results.
Not sure if this is possible, but maybe. I have a table that contains a bunch of logs. I'm doing something like SELECT * FROM LOGS. The primary key in this table is LogID. I have another table that contains error messages. Each LogID could have multiple error messages associated with it. To get the error messages. When I perform my first select query listed above, I would like one of the columns to be populated with ALL the error messages for that particular LogID (SELECT * FROM ERRORS WHERE LogID = MyLogID). Any thoughts as to how I could accomplish such a daring feat?
I have the following select statement on my page: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:prbc_hrConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT emp_lname + ', ' + emp_fname + ' ' + emp_minitial + '.' AS emp_fullname FROM employee WHERE (emp_username = @emp_username)"> <SelectParameters> <asp:SessionParameter Name="emp_username" SessionField="Username" Type="String" /> </SelectParameters>I want to say "Welcome, emp_fullname" at the top of the page, but can't figure out how to write the results to the page. I am moving to ASP.NET 2.0 from PHP and am banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how to do these little things. I appreciate any help you can give.
my question is what all can i bind my results of a select query to.i know we can use Dataset and Sqldatareader. can we use something else like hashtables. for example we can have:reader = cmd.ExecuteReader(); can we have something likeHashtable = cmd.ExecuteReader();
Hello! I've got the following procedure: ALTER PROCEDURE [GetTimeDiff2] (@ID int) AS select A_ProspectPipeline.ID, (case when [Completion Date] is null then '13' else case when YEAR([Completion Date])>year(GETDATE()) then '13' else case when YEAR([Completion Date])<year(GETDATE()) then '1' else month([Completion Date]) end end end)- (case when YEAR([Start Date])=year(GETDATE()) then month([Start Date]) else case when YEAR([Start Date])<year(GETDATE()) then '1' else '13' end end)as [CY],

I need to keep track of the number of hits on a particular page. Im using a stored Procedure
What I want to do is get the number of hits and increment it by one :)
ie: Sub Procedure should be like below
SELECT noOfHits WHERE pageName = 'bla bla'
noOfHits = noOfHits + 1 etc.
Also, some of the pages will be added and deleted all the time, so before I increment the noOfHits variable I need to check that the pageName 'bla bla' exists. AND if it doesnt I need to create a pageName called 'bla bla'
What I need to do in essence is:
1. Check that a particular row exists. if it doesnt create it. 2. Increment a value (by one) to a column in this particular row.
Phew. Hope you got that. Any ideas much appreciated,
Two tables: CompanyPrices(CompanyID, ProductID, Price), CompanyRegion(CompanyID, Region) ProductID is the primary key.
I want to get 10 smallest prices in each Region. In other words, I am looking for 10 cheapest prices in each region. So, if there are 20 regions, I should get excatly 200 rows having prices for products from 200 companies if there were at least 10 companies in each region.
I tried the follwoing, but get incorrect results.
select S1.Region, S1.Price from (select CompanyPrices.*, Region from CompanyPrices inner join CompanyRegion on CompanyPrices.CompanyID=CompanyRegion.CompanyID) S1 inner join (select CompanyPrices.*, Region from CompanyPrices inner join CompanyRegion on CompanyPrices.CompanyID=CompanyRegion.CompanyID) S2 on S1.Region = S2.Region group by S1.Region, S1.Price having count(*)<=10 order by S1.Region, S1.Price
However, if I want to get 10 cheapest products for each company, the above sql works by modifying the join condition. Instead of S1.Region = S2.Region , I use S1.CompanyID = S2.CompanyID and I get correct results for 10 cheapest products for each company.
select S1.CompanyID, S1.Price from (select CompanyPrices.*, Region from CompanyPrices inner join CompanyRegion on CompanyPrices.CompanyID=CompanyRegion.CompanyID) S1 inner join (select CompanyPrices.*, Region from CompanyPrices inner join CompanyRegion on CompanyPrices.CompanyID=CompanyRegion.CompanyID) S2 on S1.CompanyID = S2.CompanyID group by S1.CompanyID, S1.Price having count(*)<=10 order by S1.CompanyID, S1.Price
I am not sure what is wrong in the first query and why it does not work when the second one works. Could someone help in making the first query work to give me correct results?
I am new to stored procedures and T-SQL so please stick with me. I have a table that holds information about companies. I am trying to write a stored procedure that when run will query that table and find out if there are more than one entry of that company. All company names in that table must be unique (they can only occur once), if they occur more than once I need to flag it for reporting.
So what is the best way to go about this? Essentially what i was thinking was doing a select * on the table and then going from the first entry to the last and at each entry running a select * from table where companyname = @nameofcompany. @nameofcompany would be the name for that entry. If the select statement revealed more than one entry then i would know there was a problem.
Like I said I am new and this is probably very simple but i need a little help getting started
way to insert a summary row where there are no query results - in effect a row to say there were no results for today. I am using SQL Server 2008.
I have created a report which uses 2 tables to store all daily transactions & a one row summary of those daily transactions for upto 4 countries - both tables are updated nightly by 2 SP and the unique identifier is a field called ID which contains the country code and date;
table1_detail; store all daily transactions for 4 countries and the unique identifier is an ID which stores the country code and date (XX_ddmmyy) eg GB_280513. There may be transactions for upto 4 countries(GB/FR/IE/DE) per day or there may be none.
Table1:
Code: ID DATE CUST VALUE ERROR ...etc GB_280513 280513 101 10.50 YES GB_280513 280513 102 90.00 NO FR_280513 280513 201 25.00 NO IE_280513 280513 301 60.00 NO FR_280513 280513 202 10.50 YES FR_280513 280513 203 10.50 NO GB_280513 280513 103 20.00 YES GB_280513 280513 104 5.00 YES
table2_summary; summary of daily transactions per unique identifier (XX_ddmmyy) in table1_detail. When there are transactions per unique identifier in table1 the SP inserts a row summarising quantity, value, error count etc.
Table2:
Code: ID DATE NO OF TRANS VALUE NO OF ERROR ...etc GB_280513 280513 4 125.50 3 FR_280513 280513 3 46.00 1 IE_280513 280513 1 60.00 0
I need the insert into table2_summary to be able to insert a row everyday for each country showing zeros where there were no transactions for that day (ID) in table1;
Table2 expected results:
Code: ID DATE NO OF TRANS VALUE NO OF ERROR ...etc GB_280513 280513 4 125.50 3 FR_280513 280513 3 46.00 1 IE_280513 280513 1 60.00 0 DE_280513 280513 0 0.00 0
When there are no transactions in table1 for a day (ID) then the summary needs 4 zero rows inserted.
