I'm sure this is simple -- I'm just spacing it today. Assume the following:
freq fruit
---- ----
10 apple
5 apple
7 banana
6 pear
3 pear
2 orange
8 orange
13 kiwi
How do I find the highest [freq] for each [fruit] all at the same time, e.g.:
10 apple
7 banana
6 pear
8 orange
13 kiwi
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I use OPENROWSET to read values from Excel and store them in a SQL Server table. In the Excel file I have a row having format 'Number' with two decimal places.
Example: 1225000.00
When I select this value using SSMS I get the correct value:
1225000
Strange enough, I cannot see the decimals anymore. However, when I now store this value into my table and then select it from there I get: (the datatype in the table is VARCHAR(max))
1.225e+006
I would not care if I could convert this back to a numeric datatype but this seems not to work: CAST('1.225e+006' as INT) throws an exception. Obviously OPENROWSET sends the data strictly as a character string. Storing this into varchar(max) works for small figures but it starts to use exp values for big figures.
Does anybody has an idea how to bring huge Excel based figures safely into a MS SQL Table ?
Thanks: Peter
I have a small database in which Employee's are linked to "Tags". These tags can be red or yellow. So, I have 3 tables.
Tag_Colors : tag_color_ID , tag_colors
Employee_Table: employeeID , employee_name
Tag_Table: tagID, tag_color_ID, employeeID, tag_notes
I need to be able to perform a query, where I can list employee's by the number of tags they have.
I don't even know how to get started on this -- could anybody point me in the right direction?
After I can et a query working, I think I can take it from there -- and get it to display on a web page.
Thanks in advance.
I have a table with multiple records.
Some have the same value in the 'subkey' field.
I want to select all the records from the table that have their highest MAINKEY.
So say there were 4 records in the table that has 3 fields (id, subkey and mainkey)
Each record has a unique id field but the subkeys are the same for the first two and the sub keys are the same for the last two while the Mainkey can be different.
So the tables looks sort of lLike this:
ID SK MK
1 10 2
2 10 3
3 25 2
4 25 3
I want to query and select one record for each subkey, but I want it to be record that has the highest mainkey. In this case, it would be records with ID 2 and 4.
I can not figure this out. :eek:
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Hello,
I have a query that returns a daily revenue figure. The query is as follows:
SELECT top 1000
ds.AcctCode,
ds.TxnDate,
SUM(isnull(ds.FuelFee,0)) + SUM(isnull(ds.CashFee,0)) + SUM(isnull(ds.ScFee,0)) AS TotalDailyRevenue,
--"MTD" = ?,
--"YDT" = ?,
ps.TC,
CASE
WHEN ps.Proj = 100 THEN 'New Account'
WHEN ps.Proj = 200 THEN 'Current Account'
END AS ProjStatus,
ps.FSR,
ps.SubmitRep1
FROM
TxnRptg.dbo.tbl_DailySummary ds
INNER JOIN SalesData.dbo.tbl_CYProcessedSales ps
ON ds.AcctCode = ps.Acct
WHERE
MONTH(ds.TxnDate) = 1
AND
Proj IN (100,200)
AND TC = 'HV'
GROUP BY
ds.AcctCode, ds.TxnDate, ps.TC, ps.Proj, ps.FSR, ps.SubmitRep1
ORDER BY
ds.AcctCode, ds.TxnDate
--*********************************
TxnDate represents a single day of the month. How can I include MTD so that the dates for the revenue total are from DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm,0,getdate()), 0) (beginning of current month) to TxnDate, and YTD so that the revenue totals are from DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy,0,getdate()), 0) (beginning of the current year) to TxnDate?
Thank you for your help!

I have run into a problem, I have 2 fields in my database, both key fields:
Table 1
=====
Field X <key>
Field Y <key>
In field X, there are say about 3 records for each unique Field Y. I let my users query the data base like follows:
Enter the Codes you want: 1000 and 3000 and 8500
So I want to pick up records where there will be the above values for All Y values. i.e 1000/AAA, 3000/AAA, and 8500 for AAA - if there is even ONE of the X values not matching a record without a matching X value, leave it out.
i.e:
X=1000,Y=AAA
X=3000,Y=AAA
X=8500,Y=AAA
X=1000,Y=BBB
X=3000,Y=BBB
X=8500,Y=BBB
X=1000,Y=CCC
X=3000,Y=CCC
X=9999,Y=CCC
When the query runs, I want to see the following records:
X=1000,Y=AAA
X=3000,Y=AAA
X=8500,Y=AAA
X=1000,Y=BBB
X=3000,Y=BBB
X=8500,Y=BBB
BUT NOT:
X=1000,Y=CCC
X=3000,Y=CCC
X=9999,Y=CCC
because one of the X values was not matched (the last X value =9999 and not one of the requirements of the search)
So I guess I want something like this:
SELECT X,Y from TABLE1 WHERE ALL Y VALUES HAVE ALL OF THESE X VALUES (X=1000,X=3000,X=8500) IF ANY X VALUES ARE MISSING SKIP RECORD
^^ Hope the above makes sense... but I am really stuck. The only other way I think I could do it is, copy all records that match all 3 X values into a temp table, and weed out any that are missing any one of the X values after they are copied but, I am running this on MYSQL 5.0 Clustered, and there is not enough room in memory for it probably... and query time has to remain under a second.
Anyhelp would be appreciated...

I am trying to select players from a database based on the userid not having any user's name in it with an order by ASC. I basically want all the players that haven't been taken. Here is what I came up with and it gives me empty.

I hope it's considered appropriate to post a SQL query question here; it's not I'll gladly post this question elsewhere. That having been said, I've run into a simple but quite tricky SQL query and was wondering if the community might be able to help. Here's what's going on:
I have a "Documents" table. Let's call it DI have a "Benefits" table. Let's call it B.There is a many-to-many relationship between D and B so I have a third table to store the relationships. Let's call that table BD.
When I create a document it creates a row in D. Let's call that D1, D2...DN. When I create a benefit it creates a row in B. Let's call that B1, B2...BN
When I associate a document to a paritcular benefit, let's say that if D1 and B2 are associated, that I created row B2-D1 in my BD table. Now here's what my challenge is. Suppose I have these entries in my tables:
D: D1, D2, D3B: B1, B2, B3
Table BD:B1-D1B2-D1B2-D2
When the user goes to add documents to benefit B1, I want to show the user only documents that are not yet added to B1. In this case, I want to show the user D2 and D3 but not D1 since that one's already added. How do I write a SQL query to do this?
Here's what I've been using, but it shows too many results (e.g. included D1, D2, D3)
SELECT D.*, BD.*FROM Documents AS d LEFT JOIN rel_BenefitsDocuments AS bd ON d.doc_id = bd.doc_idWHERE (benefit_id <> @benefit_id OR benefit_id IS NULL)
Any thoughts?
Hi,

Hi,
I have a very simple question:
declare @treshold int
set @treshold = 10
SELECT
dbo.fn_Calc(t.column1) as calc,
t.column2
FROM
mytable t
WHERE
dbo.fn_Calc(t.column1) > @treshold
I can't think of a way to get rid of the function call in the WHERE clause.
Is this actualy a problem ?
I mean does realy the function fn_Calc execute 2 times in this statement and isn't this a performance issue then?

This should be easy, I'm just having a brainfart at the moment, can't remember how to do this:
Say I have a bunch of records in a table, with an ID field as Key. I want to return the count of times each ID shows up, so for the following example data:
Code:
-----
| ID |
-----
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 1 |
| 4 |
| 1 |
| 4 |
------
Would return something like:
Code:
----------------
| ID | Count |
----------------
| 1 | 3 |
| 2 | 1 |
| 4 | 2 |
-----------------
This should be obvious but for some reason I can't see it.
When this is done I'm going to join in another table to get a name based on the ID with the highest count. I believe it's faster to do a TOP 1 here rather than after the join, but I want to verify that while I'm at it also.

Hi folks,
I am a complete newbie to SQL. I have a simple query to make in SQL, but I'm not being able to construct the statement properly. I've already tried googling this info, but with little luck. If someone could help me here, I'd be very thankful.
The problem:
I have a table with a list of questions. All questions have a serial number. The query has to return whether a particular question is the last one in the table or not (according to serial no.)
Logically, this is the query -
Code:
select islast = 0
if count(*) from question where serialno > $serial != 0
else
select islast = 1;
The '$serial' part will get replaced dynamically before query execution through another program.
Any idea how to code this in valid SQL? I would like to make it a simple statement and not a stored procedure. Thanks.

I'm having a bad day as I just cannot get a query to work and its doing my head in and it should be a simple query.
I'll try and explain what I need.
Have a simple query with one join, this is it so far:
SELECT DISTINCT Replace(StaffName,'''''',' ') AS StaffName,OutReason,OutStartDate
,OutEndDate,OutStartTime,OutEndTime,OutID
FROM vwOutOfOffice
LEFT OUTER JOIN vwStaffList ON OutUser=StaffID
WHERE OutComplete=0
What I'm having trouble with adding to the WHERE is as follows, I need a list of Staff who are out of the office based on the various criteria:
Example
Current date=29/02/2008
Current time=14:00
Start date---End Date----Start Time--End Time--Should Appear
27/02/2008--28/02/2008--09:00------17:00-----No (because of date)
28/02/2008--03/03/2008--08:00------17:00-----Yes
28/02/2008--29/02/2008--17:00------17:00-----Yes
29/02/2008--29/02/2008--12:00------14:00-----Yes
29/02/2008--29/02/2008--14:30------17:00-----No (because of time)
02/03/2008--02/03/2008--08:00------10:00-----No (because of date)
There may be others I've missed but as long as the dates combined with the times match correctly I need the records to appear.
Please help before I end up putting my head through the monitor.

Hello,
You probably seen this Q before but I have no idea what to search and and therefor any direction would be appreciated.
I have three columns table, two are int and one is datetime (for sorting). I would like to query all values witch are unique within the two integers, however, in some cases data looks like this:
int1 = 1
int2 = 2
and another record like:
int1 = 2
int2 = 1
this pair should be considered as a duplicate and second record should not come with the results set.
Any suggestions?
