I'm stuck. I have a table that I want to pull some info from that I don''t know how to.
There are two colomuns, one is the call_id column which is not unique and the other is the call_status column which again is not unique. The call_status column can have several values, they are ('1 NEW','3 3RD RESPONDED','7 3RD RESOLVED','6 PENDING','3 SEC RESPONDED','7 SEC RESOLVED').
The call_id could be any number, I only want the 6 PENDING rows where there are other rows for that call_id which have either 3 3RD RESPONDED or 7 3RD RESOLVED. If someone knows how it would be a great help.
I am facing a problem in writing the stored procedure for multiple search criteria.
I am trying to write the query in the Procedure as follows
Select * from Car where Price=@Price1 or Price=@price2 or Price=@price=3 and where Manufacture=@Manufacture1 or Manufacture=@Manufacture2 or Manufacture=@Manufacture3 and where Model=@Model1 or Model=@Model2 or Model=@Model3 and where City=@City1 or City=@City2 or City=@City3
I am Not sure of the query but am trying to get the list of cars that are to be filtered based on the user input.
Hey all,I am having some serious trouble getting the correct syntax for a select statement to work the way I need it, any help I could get on this would be greatly appreciated.I have a table called Units which stores computers and a table called Software which stores software. I have a bit field in Units called OEM, when this is set to true I don't want the select statement to pull this unit down when I am assigning software to other units.Here is my select statement: SELECT Software.SID, Software.SN, Software.Name, Users.First + ' ' + Users.Last AS 'Assigned User', Units.Make + '-' + Units.Model AS 'Assigned Unit' FROM dbo.Software LEFT JOIN dbo.Units ON Software.SN = Units.SN LEFT JOIN dbo.Users ON Units.UID = Users.UID WHERE (Units.OEM = 'FALSE') AND (Software.SN LIKE '%' + @SearchString + '%')Everything works as expected, unless of course the unit has no software assigned to it yet, it won't return it because its not tied to a Units.OEM field. Is there anyway to have it return ALL records that even arn't joined OR are joined but have OEM set to false?Thanks, let me know if I need to clear anything up.-Matthew
Does anyone know how to select rows by their position in a table. I need to be able to e.g return the 2,000th - 2,200th rows as a set. I will have many concurrent clients connecting to this table so I do not want to use cursors. The table is 800,000 in length. Any ideas people?
Hi, I want to select the 8 most saled products from large orders table... the problem is that when i use the "distinct" sentence (something like this- "SELECT TOP 8 distinct id, products, productid FROM tbl_orders ORDER BY id") I get back the distinct of any columns.... (and any ID is distinct, of course), but if i don't include the id's in the distinct sentence, i can't order by id's. can i get the last orders, only by distinct product, and not by distinct id, and order them by the id's?

I have two tables a stock table and a price table and I want to select the correct price for the Stock Date.
Problem is sometimes there is a promotion date in the price table between the live dates so the rows double up. Below is my sql but I get over 17,000 rows when it should be about 16,964.

SELECT FIRST @someNumber name, age FROM friends WHERE age > @ageInput

hi!I have two tables with same structure. I need to run a select query thatwill return only the rowsfrom one table that are not in the other.In MySQL it would beselect * from table1 MINUS select * from table2.but in MsSql I can not find the apropriate way to do this.Any Help?Zvonko
I have questions and answers from one table, I need to select questions as column names and answers column values as the results for the questions column.
I got the following query:SELECT TOP (8) ext.extID, ext.Quote, ext.sourceTitle, ext.extRating, gf_game.gameID, gf_game.catID, gf_game.URL, gf_game.TitleFROM gf_game_ext AS ext INNER JOIN gf_game ON gf_game.gameID = ext.gameIDWHERE (ext.Approved = 1)ORDER BY ext.extID DESC which is e.g. producing this output: 6000 -some text- Title 90 1960 2 tom-cl tom cl5999 -some text- title 90 1960 2 tom-clcl asdf5998 -some text- title 90 1959 2 tom-cl-cl asdfWhat I'd like to do now is to filter out the duplicate GameIDs (= 1960) so that just one unique row with the gameid 1960 is remaining. If I put in a SELECT DINSTINCT TOP(8) it just counts for the table ext, but I need it to count for gf_game.gameID - is that possible?Thanks a lot!
is there a way to process a file x records at a time?
We have a table that I need to append to an existing table. The date columns are currently in char but must be converted to datetime for the existing table. The problem is I have bad data. There are 3 million rows where the date field isn't valid for SQL's datetime format. Since this is the data I have, I have to work with it. I would like for SQL to just insert a null if it comes upon a bad date. Currently when it encounters a field that isn't valid, it stops the process with an error.
I have tried to go around it below, but there is still something "hanging" I would like to be able just to insert one million rows at a time and if it errors, then I can look at the next million, find the error, fix it and continue on.
Any suggestions? Or if you have a better idea all together I would love to see it.
SQL Server 7.0, SP2
,CASE when (substring(check_date,1,4) not between '1997' and '2000' or substring(check_date,5,2) not between '01' and '12' or substring(check_date,7,2) not between '01' and '31') THEN null ELSE cast(check_date as datetime) END AS check_date
I have to select rows based on if the transaction date = todays date.The column is defined as numeric 8 with 0 decimal.how to code for todays date with such a column?
I would like to filter the second table taking one row per ID of Field A (first table) and selecting the rows whose sum of E is equal to the value in field C; in this example the resulting table should be:
SELECT RN_TEST_ID AS 'Test ID', MAX(RN_EXECUTION_DATE) AS 'Last Execution Date', MAX(RN_EXECUTION_TIME) AS 'Execution Time', RN_DURATION AS 'Run Duration' FROM RUN
1. The query should only return one record for each test id
2. The record returned should be the most recent. By most recent I mean the RN_EXECUTION_DATE and RN_EXECUTION_TIME of the returned row should be the most recent in time.
For example, in the sample data there are multiple rows with the same test id (for example 10668 and 10525. The 10525 is even more problematic since its execution date is the same for both rows returned - the execution times differ. Again, I want one record per test id and that record should be the most recent in time.
As a beginner i am having trouble with this. i have two different tables , both have a name column, nvarchar datatype. I would like to select from table B all the rows which contain a name which is not in table A. Then insert these rows, into table A

Just trying to select a set of Articles from a SQL Server Database. The Articles all have a Category ID which is stored in another table (as an Article could be in more than one Category). I want to select the Top 3 Articles in a Category. At the moment I have as my SQL;
"SELECT TOP 3 f.ArticleID, f.Heading, f.Summary, f.WrittenDate, f.ArticleURL FROM feedTable f LEFT JOIN Categories c ON f.ArticleID = c.ArticleID WHERE c.CategoryID=" + CategoryID + " AND c.ArticleID<>" + id + " ORDER BY c.CategoryID"
Which seems to work to an extent in that I do get three articles in the same Category appearing. However, there are sometimes duplicates appearing, so I need to incorporate a DISTINCT clause to the above. I'm not sure where to put this in though. Any ideas?
