Select With From Database With A List Of Parameters
May 15, 2008
Hi, i have a big problem. I´m having trouble with the select statement in SQL query language. The problem is that I need to retrieve various data from database and the input object is a list. The simple way of doing this is:SELECT <return values>FROM <datatable name>WHERE (<select data parameter>)My problem is that my where parameter needs to be an array list. The simple way of solving the problem would be using a for statement in my c# code and call my store procedure various times, but my array list can be too long and take a long time to connect and search data for each statement, so I need to access the database once.Can anybody help; I would appreciate it very much thx, Malcolm
I know I can do a JOIN(parameter, "some seperator") and it will build me a list/string of all the values in the multiselect parameter.
However, I want to do the same thing with all the occurances of a field in my result set (each row being an occurance).
For example say I have a form that is being printed which will pull in all the medications a patient is currently listed as having perscriptions for. I want to return all those values (say 8) and display them on a single line (or wrap onto additional lines as needed).
Something like: List of current perscriptions: Allegra, Allegra-D, Clariton, Nasalcort, Sudafed, Zantac
How can I accomplish this?
I was playing with the list box, but that only lets me repeat on a new line, I couldn't find any way to get it to repeate side by side (repeat left to right instead of top to bottom). I played with the orientation options, but that really just lets me adjust how multiple columns are displayed as best I can tell.
Could a custom function of some sort be written to take all the values and spit them out one by one into a comma seperated string?
I have setup a Database Audit Specification as follows:
Audit Action Type: SELECT | Object Class: DATABASE | Object Name: SHOPDB | Principal Name: public
Now, when I perform a SELECT query with a bound parameter such as:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='queryname'
What I see through the Audit Logs is something like:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='@1'
I understand that it is by design that we cannot see these parameters throught Database Level Auditing. I would like to know whether it is possible to see these parameters by any other means using
(1) SQL Server Enterprise Edition, (2) SQL Server Standard Edition, or (3) by an external tool.
I have a select list of fields that I need to select to get the results I need, however, I would like to insert only a chosen few of these fields into a table. I am getting the error, "The select list for the INSERT statement contains more items than the insert list. The number of SELECT values must match the number of INSERT columns." How can I do this?

I want to have a report query parameter which has many thousands of possible values (i.e. Customer Names). I need to provide the ability to allow a user to search for the customer they want and then have that customer's detail appear in the parameter.
Ideally I would like something like the ability to have a "Find" button next to the parameter that would kick off a "Find" report and then pass the value selected back to the original parameter.
The parameter in question is one of a numvber (6) on the actual report so have discounted the option of creating a "Find Customer" report as step 1 and then passing the selection forward to the actual report (Step 2) i.e. drill through.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be much appreciated as I know I will have many of these scenarios in the coming months as I will be using numerous parameters with large selection lists.
Hello all, I have two mult-value parameters in my report. Both of them working with selecting one or more values. But, when I test using "(Select All)" values for both parameters , only one parameter works. The "available values" for these two parameters are both from the data set.

We are using xml to pull data from a custom sharepoint list into sql 2005. We have set a parameter that allows the user to filter the data by surname, however when the user tries to filter the list the drop down box brings up a list of every record, so there are duplicate entries for each surname.
Is there a way of filtering this so that there is only one instance of the users surname instead of it showing all the records?
There are several parameters on a report. One of the parameter is a multi-select enabled parameter and I suppressed the value "All" showing as one of the item in the drop down list, simply by filter out the [bha].[bha].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL to 1, as "(Select All)" is pre-assigned to the drop list when multi-select is enabled and it is confusing to show "(Select All)" and "All" in the drop list. However I have another report which is linked to this report and the value which is required to pass to this report for this parameter is "All". Can I pass the "Select All" as a parameter from the other report? If so, how? Thanks.
I have the following ASP code that builds part of the example SQL statement below (it's the same SQL as in my earlier thread here (http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?t=1214044) but a very different question):

I want to turn this SQL into a stored proc; there are currently about 8 parameters that I want to pass into it. The field value for each will be either NULL or a positive integer, and the paramater will be passed in as an integer.
If the passed parameter value is a positive integer then it should return all records where the corresponding field value matches that integer. If the passed parameter is 0, it should return all rows regardless of whether the field value is an integer or NULL.
And I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it. Do I need an IF statement in there or something?
I have created a ssrs report which connects to vertica database through odbc connection. When I try to pass parameter value through parameter (e.g.: column name IN (@parameter) ) then getting error message in query designer prompting "Error in list of values in IN clause.

I have done queries before where you have something like this: Select name From people Where uid in (Select UID from employees where salary > 500000) as an example. I have to use stored procedures, I can't connect directly... I have a datatable of records that I select from a database. In the database table there is a flag 'checkedOut' (bit field) wich I want to set to true (1) for each of these records. Since I have to use stored procedures I think I am limited to passing in parameters. I wrote a function using a stringbuilder to concatonate the key fields into a comma delimited list "1, 55, 98" etc. and thought to use it as the clause in the 'in' sample ie:Update ServiceRequests set CheckedOut = 1 Where UID in (@UIDList)
I have tried a few different things, none works. Any ideas how you might accomplish this with stored procedures? The records are passed to a thread to be dealt with and it's possible the next time it runs it will pick up the same records for processing if the first thread isn't through. I needed the 'CheckedOut' to ensure I don't accidentally do that. Thanks.
Hi all. I need to create a select query in my program that will select from a list of values that are stored in a dataset. Let see this example: selectcmd = "Select * from mytable where myfile =" ??????? cmd = New SqlCommand(selectCmd, da.SelectCommand.Connection)
The values I need to put on ????? are stored in a dataset. For example if the dataset is populated with the following values: A B C D E
I would like to build a query like that: selectcmd = "Select * from mytable where myfile = ‘A’ or ‘B’ or ‘C’ or ‘D’ or ‘E’ “
I need to create a stored procedure that takes a list of product numbers(541, 456, CE6050,...) and selects only the customers that have all product numbers in the list. I have a product table that has the following schema:
So a customer can have more than one product, but I need a select statement that takes the product numbers and selects them against the product table and returns only the customerNumbers that have the entire list of product numbers. I have tried doing a join on the product list and productNumber, then join with the customer table on customerNumber, but that gets any entires found in the list not the entries that have all the product numbers. Thanks in advance for any help.

I have a table that has a list of skills, ie "HP One", "HP Two"
I need to pass the these skills from my applications search page to a stored procedure, hence I have a snippet of the SP below.
DECLARE @SkillSet NVarChar (200) SET @SkillSet = '-HP One-,-HP Two-' SET @SkillSet = Replace(@SkillSet, '-', '''') SELECT * FROM CPSkillMatrixLevels WHERE SkillMatrixLevelName IN (@SkillSet)
The following sp does not return any results, but when i set the last line to ..
SELECT * FROM CPSkillMatrixLevels WHERE SkillMatrixLevelName IN ('HP One', 'HP Two')
It returns a set of results. Also when I do a select on the variable @SkillSet, ie SELECT @SkillSet, it displays 'HP One', 'HP Two'
Can enybody help me here, i Know i'm doing something wrong, but I cant think of what it is.

I have a dropdown list that is populated by two columns in a database.select (firstname+surname) AS Fullname from table where id = 'id'; It works fine but i want to know how i would get a space between the firstname and the surname because at the moment all the values come back as JoeBloggs....without any spaces
I would like to write a select statement where I specify a list of values in the 'Select' line, and would like the output to have one line for each element.
I tried using Case with no success.
For example:
Select a.id, a.timestamp, ('rowA','rowB') as 'Tag' from tableOne a where a.id = '1'
So the 'where' line would produce one row, however, the overall statement would produce two.
ID TimeStamp Tag -------------------------------- 1 2012-12-12 rowA 1 2012-12-12 rowB
The following returns all base tables within the database of type "varchar":
Code: SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME FROM mydb.information_schema.columns WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'master' AND TABLE_CATALOG = 'mydb' AND DATA_TYPE IN('varchar')" AND TABLE_NAME IN( SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM mydb.information_schema.tables WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' AND TABLE_CATALOG = 'mydb' AND TABLE_SCHEMA = 'master')
What I then want to do is... For each of these results:
Code: select [COLUMN_NAME] from [TABLE_SCHEMA].[TABLE_NAME] WHERE ID = 'test'
Is it possible to do this in one SQL command? Or do I manually have to do it for each in the list from my first query?
I have a table with DiscNo, Artist, Title and other fields. I would like to find all duplicate records with the same artist/title and with the first 3 characters of the discnumber. e.g.
SELECT Artist, Title Into #TempArtistTitle FROM MediaFile GROUP BY Artist, Title HAVING COUNT(SubString(DiscNo, 0, 3)) > 1
SELECT MediaFile.DiscNo, MediaFile.Artist, MediaFile.Title FROM MediaFile RIGHT OUTER JOIN #TempArtistTitle ON MediaFile.Title = #TempArtistTitle.Title AND MediaFile.Artist = #TempArtistTitle.Artist ORDER BY Artist, Title, DiscNo
Drop TABLE #TempArtistTitle GO
See, if the first 3 characters of the disc number is the same, it is the same manufacturer. This query works somewhat, although it returns records that the discnumber is unique too. Like below, the LG disc number shouldn't be returned, as there is only one record for that artist/title.

I want to create a column alias to represent the comparison of twocolumns (ie a boolean result of True or False). A simple example is:Select VehicleFinanceID, SalePrice > PurchasePrice As isProfit[color=blue]>From VehicleFinance[/color]but I get an error 'Incorrect syntax near >'Books online states that the select_list can contain column_name orexpressionAn expression is a column name, constant, function, any combination ofcolumn names, constants and functions connected by an operator[color=blue]> is a binary operator[/color]So why do I get this error.Incidentally, if I use an arithmetic operator such as +, there is noproblem.
According to BOL, columns in an ORDER BY clause do not have to be in the SELECTcolumn list unless the SELECT includes DISTINCT, or the UNION operator.Is this a SQL Server thing, or SQL standard behavior? That is, if I were to writeabsolutely pure SQL-92, must columns in the ORDER BY clause be present in the SELECTlist?
I have a report with a dataset/parameter to select the salesperson.
SELECT DISTINCT [DatabaseName$Sales Shipment Header].[Salesperson Code], [DatabaseName$Salesperson_Purchaser].Name, 1 AS SortID FROM [DatabaseName$Salesperson_Purchaser] RIGHT OUTER JOIN [DatabaseName$Sales Shipment Header] ON [DatabaseName$Salesperson_Purchaser].Code = [DatabaseName$Sales Shipment Header].[Salesperson Code] UNION ALL SELECT NULL AS [Salesperson Code], 'Alle salespersons' AS Name, 0 AS SortID ORDER BY SortID, [DatabaseName$Salesperson_Purchaser].Name
In the preview mode the "All salespersons" is selected. When I deploy I see in the web user interface "<Select a Value>". The second choice is "All salespersons".
Is there a way to see "All salespersons" in the web user interface? How do I select a default value from my dataset of salespersons?
I am trying to determine the existence of at least one row in my Detail table using EXISTS in my SELECT list from my Main table.SELECT M.ID,EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM Detail D WHERE D.ID = M.ID) as HasDataFROM Main MCan this be done this way?I was hoping that using EXISTS would find a row and move on thus increasing performance.
SELECT FriendName from Friends where RegionId = 23 I would like to create a comma delimited list of 'FriendName' column values in above query (example - Mike,John,Lisa,Emburey). How would I do that?
Let's say I want to get the ROOMTYPE which contains AMENITY 1,2,4 only.
If I do this:
SELECT ROOMTYPE FROM TABLE WHERE AMENITY IN (1,2,4)
I get all the 3 RoomTypes because the IN acts like an OR but I want to get the column which contains ALL of the items in the list, i.e I want the ROOMTYPE that has ALL of the 1,2,4 but not just 1 or 1,2, etc...In this case, I want only R002 to be returned because the other RoomTypes do not contain all of the 1,2,4
NOTE: The data and list above is an example only as the table contents as well as the list will change over due course. e.g. the list can be (2,6,8,10,20,..100) etc.. So, I would need a query which can cater for any list contents...(x,y,z,...) and the query should return me the RoomTypes which have ALL elements in that particular list. If one of the RoomTypes do not have an element, it should NOT be returned.
Hi, I have a need to display on screen AND email a pdf report to email addresses specified at run time, executing the report with a parameter specified by the user. I have looked into data driven subscriptions, but it seems this is based on scheduling. Unfortunately for the majority of the project I will only have access to SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Production system is Enterprise), so I cannot investigate thoroughly.
So, is this possible using data driven subscriptions? Scenario is:
1. User enters parameter used for query, as well as email addresses. 2. Report is generated and displayed on screen. 3. Report is emailed to addresses specified by user.
Does anyone know of a link or list that has all the parameters for the "rs:" section of the URL access parameter, except for the ones in the Microsoft books?
I have a gridview that is based on the selection(s) in a listbox. The gridview renders fine if I only select one value from the listbox. I recive this error though when I select more that one value from the listbox: Syntax error converting the nvarchar value '4,1' to a column of data type int.

Anayway, I have a table with names and address plus an extra field noting a part number of product.
I'd like to build a SELECT string that will return one result for each name/address (uniques only in other words) and build a comma delimited field of all the part numbers for that name/address.
Example:
NAME ADDRESS PART NUMBER John Smith 555 Main st., los angeles, ca 90003 5000 John Smith 555 Main st., los angeles, ca 90003 6650 Mike Jones 8569 West 18th Ave., San Diego, ca 1255 John Smith 555 Main st., los angeles, ca 90003 5144 Mike Jones 8569 West 18th Ave., San Diego, ca 2399
So I'd like my results to look like this:
NAME ADDRESS PARTS John Smith 555 Main st., los angeles, ca 90003 5000,6650,5144 Mike Jones 8569 West 18th Ave., San Diego, ca 1255,2399
