Separate String For Each Row By & Character
Oct 13, 2015I simply need to separate the string for each row by the & character and then I'm assuming i ll be able to COUNT and GROUP BY the occurrences of each separate value in order to find the most commonly used inputs.I have a column Variables in the table Functions, that contains a string of values separated by the & character that shows the inputs each student inserted into a function.
How would I go about splitting that string without the use of a function or stored procedure and the find the most commonly used variables? (I was thinking the latter part could be easily solved with a COUNT(*) and appropriate GROUP BY.)
Example of data:
StudentID FunctionName Variables
1 Example1 Var1=10&Var2=xy&Sign=True&Role=False
How To Do Separate The Concatenated String
Oct 5, 2007declare @filter varchar(100)
set @filter = '10,''firststring''||10,''secondstring'''
declare @tbl table
(id decimal,
name varchar(20))
insert into @tbl values (substring(@filter,0,patindex('%||%',@filter)))
hai in the above exmaple, i recieve input value (@filter) as concated string . pipeline(||) is my delimiter..
i want to split the string based on this delimater and need to insert into @tbl..
There are more columns in the INSERT statement than values specified in the VALUES clause. The number of values in the VALUES clause must match the number of columns specified in the INSERT statement.
What is the error in this. i believe i can do this way to insert to concatinated values.
Help pls

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Cut Certain Values In A String To Separate Columns
Jun 5, 2014I have a column containing values for different languages. I want to cut out the values per languate in a seperat column.
The syntax is a 2 letter country code followed by : the value is contained in double quotes. each languate is separated by a ; (except for the last one)
EX ur English, Dutch and Swedish:US:"Project/Prescription sale";NL:"Project/specificatie";SW:"Objektsförsäljning"
The result would Be
column header US
with value Project/Prescription sale
next column header NL
with value Project/specificatie etc.
Here are table examples:
IF OBJECT_ID('[#SALETYPE]','U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [#SALETYPE]
CREATE TABLE [#SALETYPE](
[SaleType_Id] [int] NOT NULL,
[name] [nvarchar](239) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....

Transact SQL :: Flat Text File - Separate HTML String
Jun 24, 2015I have a flat text file with lots HTML tags and corresponding valuesÂ
For exampleÂ
<Near_Side> 5563 </Near_Side>
<Top_Down_Code> Xe345 <Top_Down_Code>Â
So, For example I can use the a functionÂ
ALTER function dbo.StripHTML( @text varchar(max) ) returns varchar(max) as
begin
  declare @textXML xml
  declare @result varchar(max)
  set @textXML = REPLACE( @text, '&', '' );
[Code] ...
To which Select dbo.StripHTML('<Near_Side> 5563 </Near_Side>')  ValueÂ
I'll get 5563
However how would you get the values within the tag itself ? E.g.Â
Value NameÂ
5563 Near_side
Xe345 Â Â Â Top_Down_Code
I was thinking along the Charindex but cant seem to get it right.

Returning Subsets Of The Same Column In Separate Columns...
Mar 23, 2006I have the following 2 Sql queries. They both are rowcounts of the same column but based on different criteria. What I want to do is return the two results side by side in separate columns:
-- Subscriptions since Sept. 24th
SELECT count(*)
FROM SiteMemberTable103 s(nolock)
JOIN clientmembertable25 c(nolock) ON s.memberid = c.memberid
WHERE site_firstjoindate is not null
and c.clientunsubscribe = 0
and c.validemailaddr = 1
and s.unsubscribe = 0
-- Subscriptions in February
SELECT count(*)
FROM SiteMemberTable103 s(nolock)
JOIN clientmembertable25 c(nolock) ON s.memberid = c.memberid
WHERE site_firstjoindate BETWEEN '2006-02-01 00:00:00.000' AND '2006-03-01 00:00:00.000'
AND c.clientunsubscribe = 0
AND c.validemailaddr = 1
AND s.unsubscribe = 0
It seems like a UNION ALL should work but it just returns the results in one column. I tried changing the count by specifying a different column for each but that doesn't work either. I also tried writing it as one query and using alias to differentiate the two tables but that just gives me syntax errors. I suspect there is a more elegant way to do this but I'm at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

In SSIS, What Is The Best Way To Take A Column With Comma Separated Strings And Separate Them To Multiple Columns

Can anybody suggest me what is the best way to take a column with comma separated stings and output them into multiple columns with strings?
for example if I have a column with "watertown, newton" as a string, I need to separate them to two columns with watertown and newton values?
Is Derived column transformation the best way to do it?
Thanks.

TSQL - Trim String Containing Both Data And Value Into 2 Separate Data Fields
Aug 20, 2007Hi!
Need help with this one:
I have a column with a string composed by several data. After using REPLACE several times, I get something like the data below, which has (in most of cases) a value and a date.
378 9/05
388 9/05
4/05
1/06 606
1/06 646
76 5/05
100 1/05
118 8/05
129 8/05
9/05 342
05/3 123
1/07
4/06 164
The problem is that I need to get each value alone (to separate columns), in example:
Value Date
378 09/2005
388 09/2005
0 04/2005
...
606 01/2006
and so on...
In addittion you can see that sometimes the Value come first or alone, and sometimes the Date come first or alone.
I will appreciate any good ideas,
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.

Cast/Convert Mmddyy In String To New DB_DATETIMESTAMP Column In Derived Column Transformation
Mar 5, 2007Hi,
I have dates in "mmddyy" format coming from the sources and they are older dates of mid 80s like 082580 for instance.
When I cast it this way (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) Source_Date , It says ok but throws a runtime error.
When I hardcode a date in same format, (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) "082580" , It becomes red (an indication of syntax error) . Please note that we use double quotes in expressions in Derived Column Transformation; So an anticipation that using double quotes over single ones would be the syntax problem would be wrong.
Any help in this will sincerely be appreciated.
Thanks

SELECT(ing) One DB Column Value Into A String In C#... How?
Jun 18, 2007hey everyone, everyone here has been extremely helpful, I'm extremely appreciative. i have another question if anyone has the time.I want to pull the value of one column/row into a string, i know this value to be one int or 1 word under 10 characters. I'd like to be able to use this variable as a conditional, so my if/else statements have information to work off of. I have been using the following format in by code-behind pages to do my SQL insert/update/delete - however I cannot figure out how to SELECT and get those results into a string. I'm new obviously, so dumbed-down explanation would be greatly appreciated!This is what I've used so far for working with my DB:using System;using System.Data;using System.Configuration;using System.Collections;using System.Web;using System.Web.Security;using System.Web.UI;using System.Web.UI.WebControls;using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls; protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { SqlDataSource profilesinsert = new SqlDataSource(); profilesinsert.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ProfilesConnectionString1"].ToString(); profilesinsert.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text; profilesinsert.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO ProfileComments (Approved) VALUES (@Approved)"; profilesinsert.InsertParameters.Add("Approved", "yes"); profilesinsert.Insert(); } The SELECT into a string I'd like to do on page_load, so that I can test that variable upon button click, and have a different value in "Approved" depending on the 1 int or small word result from my SELECT.THANK YOU very much to anyone who offers help! love you guys :)

Search For A Column With Certain String
Oct 1, 2013I have access to a database's web front end and a limited amount of access to the server.
I am trying to find out what column a certain string is in.
I can see some text on the front end via the web that a user enters and then submits. This information must go to the back end of the database but I dont know where it goes...
I am able to provide a unique Sequence number that it would be linked with and obviously I have the string that im looking for its column name but other then that I dont know what I can do.
I don't have write access to the database so I am unable to make procedures. I am also not really aware how the front end works or if I would be able to find the script that deals with the text after the user hits "save"...
Spliting Up A String In A Column
Apr 3, 2008Good Morning,
I'm trying to write a scrip to compate two columns in two different tables to each other (billing_payee to Debtor_name)
The problem i have is that the info in the billing_payee column is CLIENT RE DEBTOR INITAL SURN and the infor in Debtor_name column is [i]DEBTOR TITLE NAME SURN[i]
What i need to be able to do is select all from Billing_Payee table where the Billing payee [i]DEBTOR INIAL SURN[i] is not the same as the info in Debtor_name.
I somehow need to split out the inial - first letter of debtor name and surname.
If i can't do it this way i need some other way of comaparing the two.
I am fairly new to t-SQL however have a pretty good grasp of it.
Please let me know if there is anything else i can provide to make this any easier any help is much appreciated!!
