What is the single SQL statement to truncate the blank space on either side of data.
Ex.
Table1 has Name as column.
I have records filled with blank space on both side for Name field.
With one query I want to correct (truncate the leading and trailing space) the data.
How?
SQL Server 2005 SP2.
Thank you,
Smith
How can I do it by using two subqueries the second of them to be aggregate and have two left joins from the first to the second??
e.g. How can I left join these two queries with the joinfield1,joinfield2 fields??
1st query
Select field1, field2, joinfield1,joinfield2 FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.field3 = Table2.field4 where field5=Value
2nd query
Select sum(agfield1) As f1, sum(agfield2) As f2, joinfield1,joinfield2 FROM Table3 INNER JOIN Table4 ON Table3.agfield3 = Table2.agfield4
where agfield5=Value
Group By joinfield1,joinfield2
Does anyone know how should I write the sql for getting the following result?
Original Table like below.
-------------------------------
[WorkDay][AgentCode]

06/12/02 2
06/12/02 3
06/12/03 2
06/12/03 3
-------------------------------
Curernt SQL:
When I put an "agentcode=2" in 'WHERE' clause, the result does not have '06/12/01' row.
Example,
SELECT DISTINCT WorkDay, AgentCode FROM MasterScheduleTransaction WHERE AgentCode=2
-------------------------------
[WorkDay][AgentCode]
06/12/02 2
06/12/03 2
-------------------------------
I would like to know the agent is in the specified date.
The expected result like below.

Is it possible to update 2 tables in a single t-sql statement?
If Yes, whats the syntax?
Update Table1,Table2 ... is not working
In VB6 using MDAC 2.8 I could do a single select statement that would act as either an Insert or an update. Is there a way to do this in ADO.net?
My old VB6 code
Dim dbData As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rs1 As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim strParm As String
Dim strCusNo As String
'
strParm = "Provider=SQLOLEDB; Data Source=SQL2000; Initial Catalog=DATA_01; User ID=UserName; Password=password"
dbData.Open strParm
'
strParm = "Select CusNo from CusFil Where CusNo = '" & strCusNo & "'"
rs1.Open strParm, dbData, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdText
If rs1.BOF And rs1.EOF Then
rs1.AddNew
Else
End If
With rs1
!CusNo = strCusNo
.Update
End With
rs1.Close
'
Set rs1 = Nothing
dbData.Close
Set dbData = Nothing
Is there an ADO.Net equivalent?

Hi, I'm having some difficulty creating the SQL Statement for getting some data from a table:
I have the following table of data
__User___Votes___Month
__A_______14______2__A_______12______3__A_______17______4__A_______11______5
__B_______19______2__B_______12______3__B_______15______4
I want to beable to pull out the total number of votes a user has had over a period of months.
eg Total up each users users votes for months 4 and 5
that would give:
__User____TotalVotes
___A________28___B________15
An added complecation is that user B does not have any data for month 5
Any help or pointers would be fanstatic
Many thanks

I'm evaluating SQL 2005 Everywhere Edition for use by our desktop application. I'm a traditional SQL Server developer and I rely heavily on stored-procedures to encapsulate basic data manipulations across multiple tables and inside multi-statement transactions.
I was excited to see an in-process version of SQL released and my thought was "this is great... now I can ditch the tediousness of individual OLEDB/.NET commands, and write batches of T-SQL and just focus on the data manipulations". But, alas, it seems I cannot. Why is SQL Everywhere Edition limited to executing a single SQL statement at a time?
For example, my application would like to update mutlipe rows in one table, delete multiple rows from another, and insert multiple rows into a third. I can do that with 3 T-SQL statements in a single small batch in a very readable way with full blown SQL Server. (and I can put that batch in a stored procedure and re-use it efficiently later.) If I contemplate how to do that with OLEDB and the single statement limitation of SQL Everywhere, it's a lot more code and a lot less appealing/maintainable. I want as much of my app to be using declarative code and as little as possible tied up in tedious OLEDB calls. Is this not possible with SQL Everywhere Edition?
I am renovating an existing application and am converting the existing passwords into hashed values using SHA1. I know how to compute the hashed values as a byte array for each record. What I don't know how to do easily is update all of the records i a single call to the database. Normally, I would just do the following:UPDATE HashedPassword = someValue WHERE UserID = 101;
UPDATE HashedPassword = someOtherValue WHERE UserID = 102;
...
What I don't know is what someValue and someOtherValue should be. How do I convert my byte array into string representation that SQL will accept? I usually execute multiple statements using Dim oCmd as New SqlCommand(sSQL, MyConn) and then call oCmd.ExecuteNonQuery().
Alternatively, I found the following code that uses the byte array directly but only shows a single statement. How could I use it to execute multiple statements as shown above?'FROM http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/103002-1.2.aspx

View 4 Replies View RelatedHello, I'm really stuck at trying to figure out how to write out the proper SQL statement for my problem. I'm relatively new to SQL, so this may not be so tough for some of you. Basically, a user logs in (I'm using the default membership provider) and goes to his INBOX to see his list of messages sent to him. The list is presented to him via a datalist. Each item of the datalist contains a table of 2 columns and 1 row as pictured below. The first box contains the user photo and user name of the person who SENT him the message (not the logged in user). The second box contains the subject title of the message.
FROM | SUBJECT | User Photo | || | Subject || User Name | |
Here is the list of the relevant 4 tables of my database and the relevant fields.....
aspnet_Users tableUserId (used to link to Member table)UserName
Member tablememberId (int - primary key)UserId (guid - used to link to aspnet_Users table)primaryPhotoId (int - used to link to Photo table)
Photo tablephotoId (int - primary key)photoUrl (string - path to file on local drive)
Message tablemessageId (int - primary key)fromMember (int - connects with memberId from Member table)toMember (int - connects with memberId from Member table)subject (varchar(max))
So basically, from a simplistic high level point of view, the datalist is going to list all of the messages where Message.toMember = the logged in user. The senders will be determined by the Member.fromMember fields. Intuitive enough so far, I guess. This is the SQL statement I have so far.....
SELECT aspnet_Users.UserName, Message.subjectFROM aspnet_Users, Member, MessageWHERE aspnet_Users.UserName = Profile.UserName AND aspnet_Users.UserId = Member.UserId AND Member.memberId = Message.toMember
Note that I'm grabbing the logged in user info from Profile.UserName. So far, this SQL statement should make the datalist crank out all messages that were sent to the logged in user. HOWEVER, how would I modify this so that the datalist generates the username of the sender, NOT the receiver (aka person who logged in)? Do you see the core of my dilemna here? I'm trying to get a resultset based on the Message.toMember (the logged in user), but also want data on the sender (the Message.fromMember so I can use the username and the photo of the SENDER, not the person logged in aka the RECEIVER). Currently, the aspnet_Users in the SELECT statement gets the username of the logged in person, not the sender.
And once we solve the issue of retrieving the sender's username, I also have to get his MAIN photo (I say "main" since a user can have multiple photos and the main one is determined by the value in a given member's primaryPhotoId field of the Member table) ?? I'm a newbie to ASP.NET and to databases in general so this may not be as tough for most of you and perhaps you're laughing at the simplicity hehe. The SQL statement so far asks to retrieve information based on the logged in user. But how do I also tell it to now go grab the Message.fromMember data, go back to the Member table to A)get the username after going back to the aspnet_Users table and B) to get the Member.primaryPhotoId, and then finally to the Photo table where the Photo.photoUrl string value is obtained..... and still hang on to the results I have up until now? And since I'm using the provided datalist control, I think I need to get all the results I need with just one SQL statement. This is indeed very very complicated for me lol.
This problem has been giving me migraines this whole weekend. Has anyone been through such a problem before? Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance.

How do I pass a single column of values from a successful merge join to an EXECUTE SQL statement so it can be used with an "IN" criteria of the WHERE clause? Here's an example of my update statement with two random key values:

Is this even possible in SSIS, or am I better off using a loop and running the update EXECUTE SQL Statement for each individual key value, as in the following example?
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "XYZ123"
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "DEF890"
How can i combine my data in single row ? All data are in a single table sorted as employeeno, date

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

Basically the compiler is telling me that I am missing a "using" directive. The compiler is wrong though, because I am including the statement "usingSystemData" Can someone please take a look at my code below and to see if you notice what the problem might be?
