Trying to get data from result of MDX query in dec order:
iLoopFrom = cst.Axes(1).Positions.Count - 1
iLoopTo = 0
iLoopStep = -1
im using these lines to read the data from bottom to top but what exactly does Position.Count do? and is the -1 there because the result has headers??
Thanks
I'm trying to find a way to sort my query like the following:
SELECT * FROM tbl_Post WHERE ID = 3 OR ID = 1 OR ID = 4 OR ID = 2 ORDER BY (3,1,4,2)
Now if ID is my primary key, the sort by default would be 1, 2, 3, 4.
I would like to specify order so that I could return the order as 3, 1, 4, 2 if I wanted to.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks,Russ

I have a query:
SELECT *
FROM Mobile_Subscriber
WHERE (sub_ID IN (17, 2, 19))
The result return:
sub_ID sub_name
2 John
17 Alice
19 Eddy
But what I want is:
sub_ID sub_name
17Alice
2John
19Eddy
Is it possible to return the result order by the query with: sub_ID IN (17,2,19)?

This is a homework, and I have been trying to get it to work since this morning. Any help is appreciated.

I have three tables:tblBook has the fields bookID, bookRangeID, bookSubjectID, bookCodetblBookRange has the fields bookRangeID, bookRangeDescriptiontblBookSubject has the fields bookSubjectID, bookSubjectDescriptionso some typical data in tblBook might be:1, 1, 1, B1HBSCI2, 1, 2, B2HBFRE13, 1, 3, B3HBGER4, 2, 1, B4PBSCI5, 2, 2, B5PBFRE6, 2, 3, B6PBGER7, 3, 1, B7CDSCI8, 3, 2, B8CDFRE9, 3, 3, B9CDGER110, 3, 3, B10CDGER211, 1, 2, B11HBFRE2tblBookRange would be:1, HardBack2, PaperBack3, CD RomtblBookSubject would be:1, Science2, French3, GermanI'd like to create a query which will return me the subjects along thetop, the book range down the side, and the bookcodes in the cells, abit like this:BookRange , Science, French, GermanHardBack , B1HBSCI, B2HBFRE1 B11HBFRE2, B3HBGERPaperBack , B4PBSCI, B5PBFRE, B6PBGERCD Rom , B7CDSCI, B8CDFRE, B9CDGER1 B10CDGER2Does that make any sense? So basically I'd like to get some kind ofdynamic SQL working which will do this kind of thing. I don't want tohard code the subjects in or the book ranges. I get the feeling thatdynamic SQL is the way forward with this and possibly using a cursor ortwo too, but it got quite nasty and convoluted when I tried variousattempts to get it working. (one of the ways I tried included workingout each result in a dynamic script, but it ran out of characters asthere were too many "subjects".)If anyone has any nice but quite dynamic solutions, I'd be delighted tohear.(and I know some of you have already told me you don't like tablesbeginnig with tbl, but I'm not hear for a lecture on namingconventions, I'm hear to learn and share ideas :o) )
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a field called "type" in my "school" table that can have threepossibilities:ElementaryMiddleHighIn my result set, I always want Elementary to come first, Middle tocome second, and High to come third.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to set sorting up on a DataGrid in ASP.NET 2.0. I have it working so that when you click on the column header, it sorts by that column, what I would like to do is set it up so that when you click the column header again it sorts on that field again, but in the opposite direction. I have it working using the following code in the stored procedure: CASE WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'ASC' then Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end ASC,

Hi Everyone,I am creating a portal and want the user to be able to select four variants from four separate drop down boxes... Such as chapter, story, etc... The user will then be able to click Find and shorten up the gridview list. The below query is what I am using for my current gridview (with custom paging). What I want to do is something like this: Pass a variable such as @Story. If no Story is chosen, then the variable would be *. If a variable is chosen, the the @Story would the StoryID. However, I don't believe SQL recognizes the * in this case. I was thinking it should, but I don't believe it does. I was hoping it would just take it and I could write, SELECT * from Stories where StoryId=@Story, or something like that... and if * was @Story, then it would just select all... or if it was 1, then just stories with a StoryId of 1.Am I totally off base here? Thanks! CREATE PROCEDURE SortAllStories@startRowIndex int,@maximumRows int,@totalRows int OUTPUTASDECLARE @first_id int, @startRow intSET @startRowIndex = (@startRowIndex - 1) * @maximumRowsIF @startRowIndex = 0SET @startRowIndex = 1SET ROWCOUNT @startRowIndexSELECT @first_id = StoriesID FROM Storie ORDER BY StoriesIdPRINT @first_idSET ROWCOUNT @maximumRowsSELECT Stories.StoryId, Chapters.ChapterName, Chapters.EnglishName, Translations.Translation,Stories.Verse, Stories.StoryFROM Chapters, Stories, TranslationsWHERE Chapters.ChapterId=Stories.ChapterId AND Translations.TranslationId = Stories.TranslationId AND Stories.StoryId >= @first_idORDER BY Stories.StoryIdSET ROWCOUNT 0SELECT @totalRows = COUNT(StoryId) FROM Stories

We are using a modeling technique called Anchor Modeling in our data warehouses. You can read more about the technique itself at our homepage http://www.intellibis.se, where we have published a fact sheet and a recently held presentation (TDWI European conference). One of the features with this technique is its simple way to historize data. This is done by having a fromDate column which together with the surrogate key will yield a unique combination. On the tables that has this kind of historization we add a primary key, which in turn will create a clustered index, with the following specification (surrogateKey asc, fromDate desc). This will physically order data on the storage media according to the specificed columns and ordering. Now I move on to create a "latest view" of this table which does a subselect to find the latest version for every surrogateKey using max(fromDate). Should not the optimizer now figure out that data is ordered so that the latest version always comes first for every surrogateKey, hence any sorting would be unneccessary? If I look at the actual execution plan after running a query that uses the view there is a sort in the plan, but the cost is always 0%. Does this mean that it did not sort the data, or that it did call a sorting routine, but it actually took very little time to do the sorting? If so, is there a reason that is has to do the sorting or could it have been left out by an even smarter optimizer?
I would also like to applaud the people behind the optimizer, since it will figure out which tables are in fact necessary to query and eliminate others, even if I have left joined them into the view I am using. This speeds up performance and makes anchor modeling feasible. Unfortunately optimizers from other vendors seem to have trouble doing this...

Lars
I've been racking my brain all day and I finally decided to ask for help. I've got two tables with rows from the first that need to be sorted by the second. The problem is that the rows don't always exist in the second table. I've tried various forms of INNER, LEFT, RIGHT, OUTER, LEFT OUTER, CROSS, etc., etc., etc. and nothing (oh yeah UNION too). Every time I get close, I lose the records that don't have matches.
Something close-
SELECT A.IDDoc, B.First
FROM A
LEFT JOIN B
ON A.IDDoc = B.IDDoc
WHERE B.Dept = 'A'
ORDER BY B.First
Example Data
Table A
IDDoc Document
---------------------------
1 1467.doc
2 8722.doc
3 A47F.doc
4 88DQ.doc
5 ABCD.doc
Table B
IDDoc Dept First
----------------------------
1 A John
2 A Bob
3 A Ralph
4 A Diane
Results I Want
IDDoc First
-------------------

When sorting records in a table how do you sort by the occurence of a field.
So, if the table contained: 1,1,2,2,2,3,3 how would you get it to sort using the desc syntax to give 2,2,2,3,3,1,1

Hi All,
I have a table with 3 columns. Product, Location and Value. The data looks like this:
NULL NULL 100
Atlanta NULL 50
Atlanta Cookie1 30
Atlanta Cookie2 20
Dallas NULL 120
Dallas Cookie1 80
Dallas Cookie2 40
This table gets filled with a Groupby with Rollup option. The NULLS show subtotals/total. Is there a way to build a query that returns the results with NULLs at the bottom of each section like:
Atlanta Cookie1 30
Atlanta Cookie2 20
Atlanta NULL 50
Dallas Cookie1 80
Dallas Cookie2 40
Dallas NULL 120
NULL NULL 100

I need to copy the structure and data of an existing SQL 6.5 server to one with a different sort order. Normally, I would use the transfer tool to accomplish this, but the servers are on different networks. My question is, is BCP the answer? In other words, will the data copied via BCP from the sending server be able to be copied on the recieiving server. Also, is there a way to automatically generate the BCP statements for all tables? What I would really like is to be able to get at the scripts and data files created by the transfer tool.
