Dear Friend,
How to select a desired sequence of records without where condition?
For example I want to select the first 100 records I am using
SELECT TOP 100 * FROM EMPLYEETB;
Like this I want to select the records starts from 101 to 200.
Is it possible? If yes how?
Thanks in advance.
Lovingly,
Meyyarasu
I am having trouble selecting only one record in a list with a sequence, example:
name addseq address
================================
bob, doe 1 123 str.
bob, doe 2 456 ave.
jane, doe 1 789 blvd.
What I want to do is select the records that are current which would be:
name addseq address
================================
bob, doe 2 456 ave.
jane, doe 1 789 blvd.
Please help with some ideas.
Thanks
I know of several methods to remove duplicate records but I recently encountered a unique situation where some duplicate records were actually acceptable.
Here is my situation:
I have a table that contains records of individuals who have children so 1 person can have 3 children with different birthdates; but there is also a field that has a specified language. The challenge arises when an individual may have only 1 child but has entered a single record twice. Once with a specifed language and again without which produces a default value of UNKNOWN.
I need to be able to remove this record without affecting records that may have a record entered twice as well; having 2 children for instance but they may also have a specified language in one record but a default value of UNKNOWN for their second record.
So I can't eliminate the unwanted duplicates by filtering out records that have UNKNOWN because I would also remove individuals that I need.
EX:
firstN | lastN | address | lang | childs birthdate
John Doe 210 Somewhere Ave ENG 1993-10-09
John Doe 210 Somewhere Ave UNK 1993-10-09
Jane Doe 210 Anywhere Ave ENG 1969-12-23
Jane Doe 210 Anywhere Ave UNK 1958-04-15
How could you remove the duplicate for John in this example without affecting Janes duplicate record which is actually ok because she apparently has 2 children with different birthdates whereas John's duplicate record is obviously created because it was entered twice; once without entering
a language and the second time specifying the language?
I have tried a number of things short of creating a cursor which isn't really the best way to resolve this issue since there are millions of rows.
Anyone out there have any input that be helpful? Or has anyone ever had this similar issue? I would be interested in knowing how you addressed the problem.
Any help is appreciated. :)
Hi there,
I have the following script that selects tables from my database with the same column name and then I delete data that falls within a specified condition. However what I need to be able to do is just select these tables that meet the condition and then just delete the data because at the moment it's also returning tables that I don't need.
So I just want to use a cursor on a table list that meet the criteria:
1) have qid column name
2) qid >= 5000000 and qid < 1500000000 '
Example
declare @strqry varchar(1000)
declare dailyYear cursor
for SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE 'qid' = COLUMN_NAME order by table_name asc
open dailyYear
fetch next from dailyYear into @DelTable
while @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
begin
Set @strqry = 'Delete from '+@DelTable+' where qid >= 5000000 and qid < 1500000000 '
exec(@strqry)
fetch next from dailyYear into @DelTable
end
close dailyYear
deallocate dailyYear
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks

I've two audit tables, AUDIT_ORDERS and AUDIT_ORDER_LINES.
The AUDIT_ORDERS has these columns: AUDIT_ID, ORDER_ID, AUDIT_DATE and other ones.
The AUDIT_ORDER_LINES has these columns: AUDIT_ID, ORDER_ID, ORDER_LINE_ID, AUDIT_DATE and other ones.
I need to join these two tables in order to select for each order line row the first order having the related audit date lower than or equal to the audit date of the related order line.
I don't want to use the TOP 1 clause or a subquery. I think to complete a such statement:
SELECT OL.Order_Line_ID, O.Order_ID, OL.Audit_Date, O.Audit_Date
FROM AUDIT_ORDER_LINES as OL INNER JOIN AUDIT_ORDERS as O
on OL.Order_ID = O.Order_ID and O.Audit_Date <= OL.Audit_Date ...
I'd like to get the first row of the Audit_Orders with audit_date <= of the audit_date of the Audit_Order_Lines table by using the join clause.
Hi...
I have Sql statement more like this
SELECT row_number() over (ORDER by a.employeeID) as rec_num, a.* FROM EmployeeA a
UNION
SELECT row_number() over (ORDER by a.employeeID) as rec_num, a.* FROM EmployeeB a
rec_num employeeID employeeName employeeDepartment
1 777 Mike HR
2 888 Susy HR
1 111 Smith TECH
2 222 John TECH
3 333 Lenny TECH
How do i get sequence number for all of this records. The rec_num reset for every statement. I want the records numbering for second statement continue from first statement so that it can be like this :
rec_num employeeID employeeName employeeDepartment
1 777 Mike HR
2 888 Susy HR
3 111 Smith TECH
4 222 John TECH
5 333 Lenny TECH
I know how to query up duplicate records, here is what I am using to do so:
Select PhoneNum, Count(PhoneNum) as NumOccurances
From Tester
Group By PhoneNum
Having (Count(PhoneNum) > 1)
when the duplicates arise, I expect them to have unique CallResultCode values, and I would like to make a priority of which value stays and which one gets dumped, keep in mind that I am a SQL noob.

~Mohan
Table1 contains fields Groupid, UserName,Category, Dimension
Table2 contains fields Group, Name,Category, Dimension (Group and Name are not in Table1)
So basically I need to read the records in Table1 using Groupid and each time there is a Groupid then select records from Table2 where Table2.Category in (Select Catergory from Table1)
and Table2.Dimension in (Select Dimension from Table1)
In Table1 There might be 10 Groupid records all of which are different.
I have a question about SQL Server.
Table patient:
create table patient (pn int,code int,date date,doctorcode int)
insert into patient (pn,code,date,doctorcode)
values
(1,10,'2015-02-19','100),
(1,10,'2015-02-19','101),
(1,10,'2015-02-19','102),
[Code] ...
Table Patientref:
create table patientref
(pn int,code int, sdate date,edate date,status int)
insert into patientref(pn,code,sdate,edate,status)
values
(1,10,'2015-02-13','2015-02-19',1),
(1,10,'2015-02-19','2015-03-24',2),
[Code] ...
Here we need consider patient dates that fall between sdate and edate of the patientrefs table, and then we need to consider the highest status values in order (for example, the highest values in order - 2 is first highest, 4 is second highest, 3 is third highest, and 1 is fourth highest value)
If the date falls between multiple different sdate and edate with the same status values, then we need to consider the latest sdate value and from that entire record we need to extract that value.
Examples: patient
pn | code | date | doctorcode
2 | 10 |2015-02-12 | 101
2 | 10 |2015-02-13 | 102
2 | 10 |2015-02-14 | 103
Table : Patientref:
pn | code | sdate | edate | Status
2 | 10 |2015-02-08 | 2015-02-19 | 4
2 | 10 |2015-02-09 | 2015-02-19 | 2
2 | 10 |2015-02-10 | 2015-02-19 | 2
2 | 10 |2015-02-11 | 2015-02-18 | 1
Here, pn=2 values have dates which fall between sdate and edate of patientref table. Then we give highest values status is 2, and status 2 values have two records, then we go for max sdate(latest sdate). Then this pn=2 latest sdates is 2015-02-10 and we need to retrieve the corresponding edate and status values.
pn = 4donot have sdate and edate and status values dut not fall conditon
Based on this, the desired output is below:
pn | code | date | doctorcode | sdate |edate |status
1 | 10 |2015-02-19 | 100 |2015-02-19 |2015-03-24 | 2
1 | 10 |2015-02-19 | 101 |2015-02-19 |2015-03-24 | 2
1 | 10 |2015-02-19 | 102 |2015-02-19 |2015-03-24 | 2
2 | 10 |2015-02-12 | 101 |2015-02-10 |2015-02-19 | 2
[Code] ...
I tried it like this:
select p.pn,p.code,p.[date],p.doctorcode,pr.sdate,pr.edate,pr.[status] from patient p
outer apply (select top 1 pr.pn,pr.code,pr.sdate,pr.edate,pr.[status] from patientref pr
where pr.pn=p.pn and pr.code=p.code and p.date between pr.sdate and pr.edate
order by case when pr.status=2
then 1 when pr.status=4 then 2
when pr.status=3 then 3
when pr.status=1 then 4 end ,pr.sdate
)pr
but this query not given expected result.here when dos not fall between sdate and edate that records not given in the above query. I required that records also.if not fall b/w condition then we need retrive that records empty values for that records.
Hi, all experts here,
I am desperate to need you help.
Could you please give me any advices on how to filter out the records through out the data flow by any particular condition? E.g. In my case, I want to filter out rows with null id (will get rid of those rows with null id which are not matched in the look up component)? Hope it is clear for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you for your help and thank you very much.
With kindest regards,

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to use a SELECT to retrieve a Next 50 set of records?

This might be a simple question. I have a LIKE statement that is working fine, however I am not sure if something else is possible.
I can pull all records on a query for a person's name with a parameter value of "MARTIN". It will also pull records for "LYNN MARTIN". However, what if I would like to have that search also pull "LYNN M MARTIN"? Currently "LYNN MARTIN" is not finding "LYNN M MARTIN".
When the end user wants to search on LYNN MARTIN and that is what they input, I want SQL to find all records that match LYNN MARTIN and also find records that HAVE LYNN % MARTIN.
I hope this make sense? I guess I need to build my select statement using a WHERE LIKE statement, but I am not sure of the syntax.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
Here is a basic example of the issue I am having:
Table 1 columns - name, address, zipcode, favorite food
For table 2 I want to find how many zipcodes exists and also take 20% of the count
Table 2 columns - based off Table 1 contains zipcode, count(zipcode) as ct, count(zipcode) * .20 as perc_ct
For example:
zipcode ct perc_ct
83746 10 2
93847 20 4
I want to run a query that will pull any 2 records for 83746 and any 4 records for 93847 from Table 1.
Is this possible?

Good Morning,I have a view that contains rate information, contractIDs, and effectivedates.I need to select the rate info based on contractID and date.I can provide a date and contractID, and I need to select the rate info forthat contract where the effective date is <= dateprovided.I need the 1 record that is closest to that date.I am thinking something with max() perhaps. Any ideas? The <= effectivedate will return several rows, I just need the one closest to the date Iprovide.Thanks for any advice,CK
