I was looking for a way to "globally" set my FROM database value. Is this possible?, or does the "FROM" syntax always require the database name? I would like to just state my table names in the FROM statement
BEFORE Example:
select T1.id, FROM PT.ptuser.tblRequest T1, where etc....
Can the "PT.ptuser" be declared somehow 1 time so my SQL code could look like...
AFTER Example:
select T1.id, FROM tblRequest T1, where etc....
hope this makes sense.... I'm trying to run SQL via Microsoft Query
1. Let's say I have a SqlDataSource named Fred. Say I have a string variable, call it Barney. If I call Fred.Insert(Barney) HOW Does the insert command GET the Barney value and pass it to the SQL Insers string? 2. Lets say also in this same insert, I want the user Lets say Batty, who is logged in, to have her username automatically inserted into the table along with her Barney value. What is the method to get a hold of user name that is magically floating around in the session somewhere? All said and done, I'd love for it to work like this: "INSERT INTO [BedRock] ([UserName], [Character] ) VALUES (SomethingThatResolvesToSignedInUserName, SomehtingThatResolvesToStringValueofVariable) Table BedrockUserName CharacterBettyRubble 'Bam-Bam' THANKS inadvance fro ANY HelpDan-Simple and sleepless-Harper

Hello all. I have an Access table with EmpName, JobTask, and Hours. Multiple lines can contain the same Employee with the same JobTask. What I need to do is to list the Employee, JobTasks (grouped), and summed hours for each JobTask.
DB Ex:
John Doe Welding 8 John Doe Cleaning 4 Bubba Smith Fork Lift 3 John Doe Welding 7 Steve Johnson Welding 5 Bubba Smith Fork Lift 6
Page output:
John Doe Welding 15 hrs. Cleaning 4 hrs.
Bubba Smith Fork Lift 9 hrs.
Steve Johnson Welding 5 hrs.
This is how I figured it should be, but it's not working for me:
SELECT EmpName, SUM (Hours), JobTask FROM tblEmpTime Group By JobTask

Right now if the value is anything other than 1 or 0, it will leave the cell blank. CASE dbo.Training.TrainingStatus WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes' WHEN 0 THEN 'No' ELSE '' END AS TrainingStatus Thank You.

I have been programming access databases for 8 years.Well today I find out that I need to know SQL.HUH LOLwell I don't have a clue as to how people even enter data intoa sql database or how to manipulate or retrieve data.Can someone please recommend a book to get me started?thank you very much for any and all help with this.
Greetings! I am writing a proof of concept ASP.net application for my employer and I have run into a couple perplexing issues. First off, In my Page_Load event I have the following code. txOTHrs.Attributes["onBlur"] = "return calculateTotal(this)"; The onblur event handler is coded as follows function calculateTotal(tb) { var regHrs = document.getElementById ("txRegHrs").value; var otHrs = document.getElementById("txOtHrs").value; var rate = document.getElementById("txRate").value; var regAmt = rate * regHrs; var otAmt= rate * ( otHrs * 1.5 ); var total = otAmt + regAmt; document.getElementById("txTotal").value = total; } Everything seems to work fine. The onBlur event is handled and, as I expect the value in the txTotal text box is updated correctly. The problem occurs when I try to access that value in the codebehind page. When ever I look at txTotal.Text in the debugger it is always blank. This has left me scratching my head as I can clearly see a value on the web page. Have I missed some step where I have to notify the server that a value in the control has changed ?
My second question is, I hope a very easy one to answer. In WinForms when I have a dataset I can access the individual rows ( in an untyped dataset ) by speficying dataset.tables["tableName"].Rows[index]. Is there any similar mechanism for accessing the individual rows, and fields in the SqlDataSource object in ASP.net ?
Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated!!
I am receiving funny results from a query. To simplify, I have 2 tables (todayyesterday). Each tbl has the same 8 columns. My query joins the two tables then looks where either of two columns has changed. What is happening is that when checking one of the columns it seems as though sql is flipping the column, causing it to be returned in error.
result set
colA colB colC colD colE colF colG colG (from yesterday) 1 1 a b c d e m 1 1 a b c d m e
So what's happening is that the record above is actually the same record and should not be returned. There is a daily pmt column that changes but I am not using that in the query. Aside from that the two records are identicle.
I have the following situation (with a site that already works and i cannot modify the database architecture and following CrossRef tables -- you will see what i mean by CrossRef tables below)
foreach hotel, there definitely is a crossRef entry in AddressCrossRef and Address tables respectively (since every hotel has an address)
however not all hotels have thumbnail image
hence i have hotel inner join AddressXReff inner join Address ..... however i must have left outer join mediaXref left outer join media
the problem is that if there is no entry in Media or mediaXref, I don't get any results
i tried to get over it by using where (media.mediaTyple like 'thumbnail' or media.mediaType is null) but then i started getting multiple results for each hotel because media's of type movie or full_image or etc... all got returned
Im new to stored procedure, but here's what I want, if someone can get me started and provide this as an example it would be VERY welcome!I have the following, a SP with parameter IsMale. This parameter may be empty. If it's not empty I want to add some text to my selection query: AND IsMale=paramvalueHere's the SP so far:ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spFindUsersAdvanced] --declare parameters here@IsMale bitASBEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT DISTINCT BirthDate,IsMale, FROM aspnet_Users INNER JOIN tblUserData ON aspnet_Users.UserId = tblUserData.UserID WHERE tblUserData.Username<>''IF @IsMale THENBEGIN AND IsMale='True'ENDELSEBEGIN AND IsMale='False'ENDEND IFEND1. How do I check if the parameter is empty?2. How do I add the text to my selection query?
Hi all,I am trying to write a stored procedure, which has two insert statements.the first insert statement, is simple which inserts data into a table and returns the primary key for the new row added. using this primary key, i am writing another insert statement, which passes a list of elements which would be then entered into another table, with the primary key of the first table.Is this possible to do in a single stored procedure? I have implemented this using two different sp, but am wondering if it can be done other way?thanks for your help!

I'm trying to construct the following SQL statement but am missing something somewhere.
I get a syntax error with the 1st FROM highlighted.
If i construct a query out of the bit that works and then construct a query on that query then i can get it to work no problem but how to mimic that in SQL ? I can't simply view the SQL of the queries because the query names replace the SQL statements.
I'm trying to SUM the 5 volumes that get returned by the TOP 5 SQL statement. The VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType query returns the TotalVolume which will enable me to divide the SUMmed 5 volumes by the TotalVolume to obtain a %age.

(SELECT TOP 5 VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Type, VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume FROM VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType WHERE (((VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume) In (SELECT TOP 5 VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume FROM VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType ORDER BY Volume DESC))) ORDER BY VotingUniverse_TopFirmsVolumeByType.Volume;) >>>>>>>>>>>end of bit that works INNER JOIN VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType ON Type = VotingUniverse_TotalVolumeByType.Type GROUP BY Type, TotalVolume;
I have a xxx.exe running on SQL 2000 server as a sql job every hour. For some reason this job sometime just hung in the middle and never finish. But if I stop it and rerun it, it will be down within 10 seconds. I am wondering if we can set up something so that the job aborts automatically if it ran more than 10 minutes.
We are running Sql 6.5 sp5 on a Pentium II 350 Mhz with 512 Mb. RAM, 1 ScSi 4 Gb hd, one 8Gb ScSi hd and 2 IDE hd (13,6 Gb and 8Gb) computer running windows NT 4.0 sp 6 without any problems. Now have bought a new computer. The new one is a Pentium III 733 Mhz 512 Mb Ram with 2 ScSi ultra wide 2 18Gb each and one 40 Gb Ide Hd. We have installed windows NT 4.0 sp 6 and Sql 6.5 sp 5. We have restored our database to make some tests to it. The database is 7 Gb big. The results of our test are that the old computer is between 20% and 30% faster than the new one when doing sql instructions and using the database even knowing that the hd´s of the new computers are 4 times faster than the old ones.
Would you please give us any help or clue that would make the new computer go faster? We know that upgrading to sql 7 will work but we need first to make this computer work better with the 6.5. Thank you.
I often use DTS to move databases between the servers. When you choose "Transform" data and “Column Mappings and Transformation” window opens, the default option is “Append rows to destination table”. Question: Is there a way to change the default option to “Delete rows in destination table”, so I wouldn’t have to go thru the transformation of dozens of tables every time I move databases around.
P.S. I know that I can save DTS package with my settings and use it later. The problem is that every time it might be different database or objects might change. So, it is not a solution for me.
I have a client requirement. We are integrating two applications. So the problem is that, whenever some updates (meaning to say "create" , "delete" , "update") happens in the SQL DB Tables, i needed to track that data and send it to a different system.
What I have thought abt is that if SQL could generate a file with all the values deleted/updated/created in the DB, then I could take those values and do the needful. Please help me..
