Selecting Nth Row Only (offset)

Jul 29, 2014

I have a query which can return multiple rows. I want to select only the nth row. In other db languages, this is achieved using the OFFSET command, but in SQL Server this command does not exist. I saw that you can hack it using ROWCOUNT and an ORDER BY clause, but I don't have anything to order by. Is there some other way to do this? My query is

Code:
SELECT S.SystemName FROM Projects AS P INNER JOIN ProjectSystems AS PS ON PS.ProjectId = P.ProjectId LEFT JOIN Systems AS S ON S.SystemId = PS.SystemID WHERE P.ProjectId = @ProjectID

This will select an example result of:

Code:
System Name
System 1
Test System 2
Test 123

How can I do something like (psuedo code)

Select Row @row From query

Row Offset Values

Jan 12, 2004

What is the fastest way to select a value offset by n rows from the start row? I used to use a cursor with FETCH ABSOLUTE in Sybase SQLAnywhere, but this is incredibly slow in SQL Server. Here's the current function I'm using:

FUNCTION dbo.TradingDaysBack ( @ItemID int, @FromDate smalldatetime, @DaysBack int )
RETURNS smalldatetime
AS
BEGIN
declare @BackDay int
declare @OADay int
set @OADay = dbo.GetOADate(@FromDate)
declare curDaysBack cursor scroll for
select OADate
fromData_Daily
whereItemID = @ItemID and OADate <= @OADay
order byOADate desc

open curDaysBack
fetch absolute @DaysBack
from curDaysBack
into@BackDay

close curDaysBack
deallocate curDaysBack

if @BackDay is null
begin
set @BackDay= ( select Min(OADate) from Data_Daily where ItemID = @ItemID and OADate <= @OADay )
end

RETURN convert(smalldatetime, @BackDay)

END




The idea is to get the date n rows of data back from the starting date (i.e. 30 trading days back from 12/1/2003). Any ideas?

LIMIT And OFFSET

Aug 27, 2007

Please, please, please, please just add limit/offset to the language.
7 years of working around this unnecessary limitation are enough. And that's just me personally, i'm sure there are those out there with a longer history and are more irritated. I know this isn't the first post on this here, nor will it be the last. I think that should be taken as a hint, and something should be done about this. Something like this:
SELECT column FROM table LIMIT 10 OFFSET 10

See, it wasn't that hard =) Now there are no ugly contortions to go through just to paginate the data. And don't recommend I return all 20k rows and do it on the client side, m'kay, or write ridiculous sql. It seems that for all the hard work that went into making those other features work that this could have been done. Don't lie, you know it could have! If there was a voting feature for suggested improvments, or a bug tracker + watch list that functioned the same, it would help. Others do that, as well.






//Another Annoyed DeveloperAnd seeing as there aren't any feature/suggestion channels that work (see:connect), I guess this forum is the best we can do. Sorry.

LIMIT Rows With An Offset

Mar 3, 2005

I have a query in MySQL which needs to be translated to an equivalent in MSSQL Server. The query uses a LIMIT clause with an offset.

select * from test LIMIT 10,5

(meaning from the 10th row containing 5 rows in the result set)

How can we port the same logic to SQL Server ? I know TOP can retrieve top n rows but how can we specify the offset ?

Any help is appreciated !

Obtaining Timezone Offset In T-SQL.

Jul 23, 2005

In MS SQL 2000, I would like to obtain the timezone offset from UTC fora given date. For today's date, I can doDATEDIFF(ss,GETDATE(),GETUTCDATE()). However, the offset for a futuredate may not be the same as today because some countries go in DaylightSaving mode. Can you suggest a way to obtain the timezone offset forany given date?ThanksYash

MySQL Limit With Start, Offset

Oct 25, 2005

Hi,

I need the equivalent for below mysql query :

select *from test limit 5, 20

I know that the below is possible in SQL Server :

select top 20 * from test where column1 not in (select top 5 column1 from test).

But my problem is I want a generic solution wherein I will not be aware of the columns available within the table.

Please advice,

MS Access- TOP / Offset? I Need To Order Results As Pages

Feb 18, 2005

Hi,

Sorry I have to post this here, but its sort of related to MS SQL anyway

I'm running a PHP system with MS Access. I need to order results in pages. (For those who are familiar with MySqL and Postgresql - I need the equivalent to LIMIT/OFFSET in MS Access).

I know I can "SELECT TOP 50" in my sql - so that solves the number of results per page.
But what about page 2,3,4..etc.... how do I select results from an offset?

There doesnt seem to be a solution for it

Thanks!

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: XML File And Conversion Datetime Offset?

Oct 13, 2015

I have a store procedure who receive an xml file.

In this store procedure I try to put all record in temporary table for some treatement ..

But I have a problem with one field ...

When I execute the code below I receive this error message :

The conversion of a datetimeoffset data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.

The problem comes from the field DeleteDate from the second row of the xml file

how I can get the correct conversion for this field ?

declare @tbl table(actorPersonId int, personType int, actorType int, person int
, firstName varchar(100), surname varchar(100), phone varchar(100), email varchar(100)
, publication int, logUsr varchar(20), active bit, delDate datetime )

Access Linked To SQL Server - 2 Day Offset Error

Jul 20, 2005

We recently translated the backend db from Access(97) to SQL Server.We are still using Access frontends. I have an update query in theAccess front end that uses a lookup table to populate fields. Thecommon fields between the table and the lookup table are the primarykey (LocID) and date & time fields. The query is:UPDATE tblPT_Offsets INNER JOIN tblPT ON tblPT_Offsets.LocID =tblPT.LocID SET tblPT.Offset_ft = [tblPT_Offsets].[Offset_ft],tblPT.Salinity = [tblPT_Offsets].[Salinity]WHERE (((tblPT.Offset_ft) Is Null) AND ((tblPT.Salinity) Is Null) AND((Format([Date]+[Time],"mm/dd/yy hh:nn")) Between [StartDate] And[EndDate]));This worked fine in Access and seemed to work fine after switching toAccess, but on closer look, there is exactly a 2 day error beingintroduced. A quick search of the newsgroups brings up lots of Accessto SQL date problems, but a 2 day offset seems rather strange? Anyideas??I know the field names Date and Time are inappropriate, but legacyissues are a pain in the butt to resolve!! Could this be a problem?David

Transact SQL :: How To Add UTC Offset To Select Date Query

Oct 15, 2015

I have the follwing function in my SQL data base which is hosted in Azure.

All date and time field in my db are store as UTC and I have a function define as below :

ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[func_GetCurrentLocalTimeFromUTC]
(
)
RETURNS datetime
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @OffSet as int = 1
DECLARE @CurrentDate as datetime = getUTCdate()

[Code] ...

Now what I have trying to do is to perform a select statement on a table where I have a dateTime value field and add the proper offset value to the field in order it is display based on where user will run the query. For example if I run this simple query :

SELECT INVENTORYDATE from Inventory

Will return the UTC dateTime value.

How can I use the select statement in order to get the field format with proper offset based on user pc timezone/. Please note that the query will be called from a rrs.

SQL Server 2008 :: Splitting Param Array Into Groups Of Four With Offset

Feb 25, 2015

I'm getting a file that essentially has a parameter array: a specific like would have three known values, and then x number of groups of four parts;

The question is how to handle logical groups of parameters; i though maybe by using a modulous on their itemnumber ...

So I can easily use DelimitedSplit8K to definitively find the first thee values, but how do I dynamically get X number of groups of four; eventually i need the first three fields combined with each quadgroup.

So a rough example of the desired output is this:

this:
'03,0000001,USD,010,81257946,,,015,121809761,,'is split into rows with the first three columns included in each row:
030000001USD01081257946NULLNULL
030000001USD015121809761NULLNULL

Here's a setup i've put together:

IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb.[dbo].[#AccountIdentifier]') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [dbo].[#AccountIdentifier]
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[#AccountIdentifier] (
[AccountIdentifierID] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[DateReceived] DATETIME NULL DEFAULT getdate(),
[RecordCode] VARCHAR(3) NULL,

[Code] ....

Selecting The Most Recently Edited Item AND Selecting A Certain Type If Another Doesn't Exist

Sep 20, 2007

I've got a big problem that I'm trying to figure out:
I have an address table out-of-which I am trying to select mailing addresses for companies UNLESS a mailing address doesn't exist; then I want to select the physical addresses for that company. If I get multiple mailing or physical addresses returned I only want the most recently edited out of those.

I don't need this for an individual ID select, I need it applied to every record from the table.

My address table has some columns that look like:
[AddressID] [int]
[LocationID] [int]

[Type] [nvarchar](10)
[Address] [varchar](50)
[City] [varchar](50)
[State] [char](2)
[Zip] [varchar](5)
[AddDate] [datetime]
[EditDate] [datetime]

AddressID is a primary-key non-null column to the address table and the LocationID is a foreign key value from a seperate Companies table.
So there will be multiple addresses to one LocationID, but each address will have it's own AddressID.

How can I do this efficiently with perfomance in mind???

Thank you in advance for any and all replies...

Parser: The Following Syntax Error Occurred During Parsing: Invalid Token, Line 1, Offset 67, ? .

May 29, 2008

I'm sure I am not undestanding some basic concept here but the following formula always produces an invalid token error at the '-' sign. In this example, I'm trying to subtract out a specific month from the total (this is a simplified example, my actual formula needs to compute a % change over time using lag...)


This produces the invalid token error (it always errors at the '-' in the equation)

with member [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] as [Measures].[MyBaseMeasure]-([Date Submitted].[Date Submitted YQMD].[month].&[2008]&[1],[Measures].[MyBaseMeasure])
select [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] on columns,
[MyDim].[MyHierarchy].[Level1].members on rows
from MyCube

But this works

with member [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] as [Measures].[MyBaseMeasure]
select [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] on columns,
[MyDim].[MyHierarchy].[Level1].members on rows
from MyCube


As does this

with member [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] as ([Date Submitted].[Date Submitted YQMD].[month].&[2008]&[1],[Measures].[MyBaseMeasure])
select [Measures].[MyCalcMeasure] on columns,
[MyDim].[MyHierarchy].[Level1].members on rows
from MyCube


What am I missing?

Selecting A View And Selecting FROM A View Is Wildly Different

Feb 21, 2006

A colleague of mine has a view that returns approx 100000 rows in about 60 seconds.

He wants to use the data returned from that view in an OLE DB Source component.

When he selects the view from the drop-down list of available tables then SSIS seems to hang without any data being returned (he waited for about 15 mins).



He then changed the OLE DB Source component to use a SQL statement and the SQL statement was: SELECT * FROM <viewname>

In this instance all the data was returned in approx 60 seconds (as expected).





This makes no sense. One would think that selecting a view from the drop-down and doing a SELECT *... from that view would be exactly the same. Evidently that isn't the case.

Can anyone explain why?

Thanks

There Was An Error Parsing The Query. [ Token Line Number = 1,Token Line Offset = 43,Token In Error = C]

Hello all
Trying to delete some data from a SSCE (2005) DB produces the exception:
SqlCeException
There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 43,Token in error = C]
Here is the code I am using

conn = new SqlCeConnection("DataSource = " + dsc);

conn.Open();

cmd = conn.CreateCommand();

cmd.CommandText = "DELETE FROM DataContainer WHERE FileName =" + dgContainers[0, SelRowIndex].Value.ToString();

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); //There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 43,Token in error = C ]

Any Idea on What causes this?

Error Parsing Query: [ Token Line Number = 1,Token Line Offset = 83,Token In Error = 5 ]

Nov 23, 2007

Hey all-

I'm trying to insert some values into an SQL Compact database on a WM6 device but there is something apparently wrong with my SQL statement...

The program is going to allow users to schedule an SMS message to be sent at a certain date and time. I'm using a database to keep track of the scheduled SMS messages. The database has 3 rows: phone number, message, and the date/time to be sent.

Here is the relevent code:


private void scheduleMenu_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

//connect to DB and do our scheduling magic



string message = messageBox.Text; //should rename messageBox...

string phoneNum = phoneNumBox.Text;



string dataBase = @"Program FilesSMS_Scheduler2SMSDatabase.sdf";

//SqlCeEngine eng = new SqlCeEngine(dataBase);

SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source=" + dataBase);

conn.Open();



//insert phone number, message text, and date/time into DB
string cmd = "INSERT INTO Scheduler(phoneNum, message, date) VALUES("+ phoneNum + ", "+ message + ", "+ dateTimePicker1.Value +")";

SqlCeCommand cmdPhone = new SqlCeCommand(cmd,conn);





cmdPhone.ExecuteNonQuery(); //error occures here...



messageBox.Text = "";

MessageBox.Show("Message Scheduled!");

}



I'm guessing it doesn't like how I am trying to get the data from the different text boxes and the DateTimePicker to go inside the SQL command. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix my SQL command or how to get data from a textbox and DateTimePicker to be inserted into a database a different way?

Do While Skip In Selecting...

Oct 21, 2004

Hello:

I have one table and it contains a column named ID Number, and a column named Date. I have a Do While statement that runs a SQL select statement a few times based on the number of records with the same ID Number. During the Do While statement the information is copied into another table and deleted from the old table. After I look at the results, I see that at the second Do While loop, the data was not selected and the Select statement did not run... so the old variable value from varValue is used again... Any reasons on why?

Here is a code snippet of what is going on:
Do While varCount < varRecordCount
conSqlConnect.Open()
cmdSelect = New SqlCommand ("Select * From temp_records_1 where [id number]=@idnumber and date<@date", conSqlConnect)
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@accountnumber", "10000" )
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@date", dtnow )
dtrdatareader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader()
While dtrdatareader.Read()
If IsDbNull(dtrdatareader("value")) = false Then
varValue = dtrdatareader("value")
End If
End While
dtrdatareader.Close()
conSqlConnect.Close()

'#####The information above is copied to another table here
'#####The record where the information was received is deleted.

varCount = varCount + 1
LoopAny ideas?

Selecting * WHILE Converting

Jun 2, 2005

I have a tbale with maybe 30 columns and I'm selecting all where a
record number matches a parameter I've passed.  That works fine,
however is there any way to do some conversions to fields when
selecting without having to list out each column?  For instance
this is what it looks like now:

SELECT *
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

But I want to convert say one column, is there a way to keep similar syntax instead of listing out each column?

SELECT *, CONVERT(varchar(15), [Losses]) as [Losses]
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

And the column I'm converting is of type 'money'.  I'm converting
it to get rid of the extra zeroes at the end.  If you know a
better way to do it I'd be interested in knowing.

Selecting Fields On The Fly

Sep 20, 2005

Hi

I have a content management system that I am building. My CMS has a
pages table which contains 60 fields, some are varchars, some are ntext
some are dates etc. They have field names which match their purpose
like varchar1, ntext3 etc. These fields are used up depending on which
template is applied to the page.

The templatefields table holds holds the information about each field
in a template. It's control type (rich text control, date control etc)
and the field in the pages table that the data will be stored in
(varchar1,ntext3 etc)

What I want to be able to do is loop through the templatefeilds table
for a particular template and then using the field name for the pages
table, go to the pages table and get the value to populate the control.

So to clarify, I would like to produce a stored procedure which outputs
the page field name (varchar1) from the templatefields table and
varchar1's value in the pages table. Maybe in a temporary table.

Is this possible?

Any guidance would be appreciated..

Thanks in advance
