Sorting Of Date Fields

Dec 27, 2004

hi,





When the autogenerate property of datagrid is set to true, how to perform sorting on date fields.





Example:





SELECT DC_NO AS [Document No],CONVERT(CHAR(10),DC_DT,103) AS [Document Date],


[Name] FROM XYZ





Here we convert the date field to the format "dd/mm/yyyy" so when sorting is done it is done in the format "dd/mm/yyyy". But instead sorting should be done in "yyyy/mm/dd" format.

Sorting Nvarchar Fields

Jun 6, 2007

Hi all,

I am having an issue which I'm guessing everyone has at one point. I just can't seem to find the answer. I might be misunderstanding something as I'm relatively new to SQL and data types etc.

Here is my issue.

I have a table with a column that has a nvarchar data type. The following is an example of field values in that column.

asystem1
zsystem19
zsystem9
bsystem23
bsystem3

I would like to sort that data alphabetically and then by number like so.

asystem1
bsystem3
bsystem23
zsystem9
zsystem19

A basic ORDER BY obviously will sort it alphabetically but will put 23 before 3. These system names are already named and can't be changed otherwise I would use "0" in front of single digit numbers.

I just can't figure out how to accomplish this. Is there a convert or cast (unfamiliar with those functions) that I can do or does it involve something more sophisticated?

I appreciate any help in advance.

Sorting Mixed Type Fields...

Jul 20, 2005

I have a field in my database which stores product codes. This fieldis a varchar. Some users use characters in their codes but most justuse numbers. Whenever I go to sort the products by code the order ofthe numbers go something like: 1, 100, 101, 2, 210, 220, 2500, 3, ...I understand why this is sorted this way but is there anyway I canhave it sort the numbers in their proper numeric order (1,2,3,100,....) and just have them always appear before any codes that containcharacters? Right now I just have users put zeros in front of theirnumbers like: 0001, 0100, 0101, 0002, ...

Grouping Sorting String And Numerical Fields

Feb 6, 2007

I've got a report built and I'm trying to figure out how sorting and grouping works. I can group the report by Patient, Albumin and it groups as I would expect.

Patient Date Albumin
Adams, John 01/28/2007 4.1
Adams, John 12/30/2007 3.9
Adams, John 01/15/2007 3.2
Barker, Mark 01/18/2007 4.3
Barker, Mark 01/22/2007 4.1
Barker, Mark 01/05/2007 3.9

However, when I try to group by Albumin, Patient, it just sorts by Albumin.
Patient Date Albumin
Barker, Mark 01/18/2007 4.3
Adams, John 01/28/2007 4.1
Barker, Mark 01/22/2007 4.1
Adams, John 12/30/2007 3.9
Barker, Mark 01/05/2007 3.9
Adams, John 01/15/2007 3.2

What I'm looking for is this:
Patient Date Albumin
Barker, Mark 01/18/2007 4.3
Barker, Mark 01/22/2007 4.1
Barker, Mark 01/05/2007 3.9
Adams, John 01/28/2007 4.1
Adams, John 12/30/2007 3.9
Adams, John 01/15/2007 3.2

Is this something that can be done with grouping and sorting?

Thanks,
Chad

Sorting By Date And Then Sorting By Name (within Date)

Jan 7, 2008

Hi,
 I hope I can explain what I am trying to achieve (in MS SQL Server):
 The results set that shows Names and Dates (plus others, but not relevant here), that needs to be sorted by Date and then by name.
 I have tried:
 ORDER BY date, surname, forename  (gives dates in right order but not names)
and
 ORDER BY surname, forename, date  (gives names in right order but not dates)
 
Thanks for any advice!

Sorting By Date

Apr 13, 2008

I have a table with a date column. The data looks like this:

11/22/2001 12:00:00 AM

I need to sort the data by the date in ascending order by year, then month, then day.

In my SQL query, I have:

ORDER BY Date ASC

But that's not working. Is there another way?

Next Run Date Column Not Sorting

Jul 20, 2005

We've just installed SQL Server 2000 on one of our servers and havenoticed a strange behavior. When clicking the column headings in thejob display in Enterprise Manager, the list is sorted (first clickascending, then descending) on the column clicked except for "Next RunDate." When we click on "Next Run Date," the list is reordered, butrandomly. Each time we click it we get a different order but neverascending or descending. This is true whether we're at the server oron a remote machine. We never saw this behavior with SQL Server 7.0.Any ideas? Thanks!

Sorting Date/timestamp Is Out Of Order

Jan 18, 2005

I have a problem with an Order By sort on a SubmissionDate column in my SQLSERVER DB.

I am inputing a timestamp in this format into the column above: 1/18/2005 11:03:19 AM

Problem is, once I sort this column in DESC order to return the results to a datalist dates with a time like this:

1/18/2005 1:03:19 AM

get placed out of place (lower on the return in DESC/higher on the return in ASC). I am assuming this is happening because it reads 1 as coming before 11 instead of after like it is with time. If this was in 24 hour format this wouldn't be a problem I guess because 1PM would be 13, so that is after 11.

Anyone know what I can do to get this sorted correctly?

Sorting By Date,time Then Select

Sep 24, 2007

I've got a table where the date and time fields are all out of sequence and I need them in sequence when I am extracting data from the table, but I'm having trouble writing the SQL.

I've got this line which sorts the date and time for the table:

SELECT * from tblcodegreydiv order by date desc, time desc


Now I'm trying to retrieve the closest record prior to a date,time selected by a user...


SELECT * from tblCodeGreyDiv
WHERE recid=(SELECT MAX(recid) from tblCodeGreyDiv WHERE date + '' + time <= '2007-09-19 05:24')


I need to somehow sort the table before I run the above sql statement. How would I go about doing this?

Created a custom SSRS report. applied an interactive sort for a date field. I have the the formatting set to "MM/DD/YYYY" and it sorts everything correctly except for the year.

12/10/2014
01/07/2015 etc, etc.

Is there a way to get this to take into account the year? but also the month and day?

Sorting And Grouping Question By Allowing Users To Select The Sorting Field

Feb 11, 2007

I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.

So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.



Any suggestions would help.

SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int.  When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end.  The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order.  The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

Please Help Me Populate My Date Fields

Hi,

I have the following table:

CREATE TABLE [Orders] (

[OrderDayName] [nvarchar] (15),
[OrderMonth] [nvarchar] (25),

The field OrderDate contains BOTH Date and Time information. What I want to do is populate the fields (in bold above) from the OrderDate field... I have tried all that I could think of but nothing works. The last and the best try that I gave was the {B}following[/B] but that too does not work. Can you PLEASE help. Many thanks in advance:

SQL- How To Compare Max Date Across Fields

Jan 4, 2006

Hello, I am wondering how to select the max date from a database view containing multiple date fields for a particular record. I am rusty at SQL and can't seem to get started. Here's an example of the data:

PRCL_IDPROJ_STRT_DTORD_DT ...
1242/3/20063/5/2006
5206/3/20068/2/2006
6412/31/2005
1872/14/20063/16/2006

I need to be able to compare the max date for each PRCL_ID record ("where prcl_id="). In the example above, prcl_id 124 has a max date of 3/5/2006, and prcl_id 520 has a max date of 8/2/2006, etc. The results of the SQL query should return the PRCL_ID and the max date.

Example query results:

PRCL_ID ORD_DT
124 3/5/2006

Please let me know if you can help or if I can provide more info.

Thanks,

DTS - Clean Up Date Fields Upon Insertion

I am importing Visual FoxPro (6) views into SQL 2000 tables and I am looking for a snippet of code to "clean up" date fields upon insertion. I can insert the views into the SQL tables fine using the tables/views selection of DTS as my source. However, I would like to ensure the date fields are in fact vaild dates and not garbage using the SQL query option of DTS source. I would like to do the insert and cleanup in one step. Do you have a snippet of code to validate a date field that I can use? Thank you for any assistance in advance, Terry.

My group is working on a project for school and neither of us have much experience with SQL or ASP. We are pretty much just writing an SQL query to get the data in a certain date range and using ASP to write the tables with the data in it.

Our problem is the SQL database has separate fields for date and time. There is nothing we can do about this because the VB.NET program that populates the tables automatically does this. We can't figure out how to do the BETWEEN statement when they are separate fields. We can do it for a date range and it works fine. An example of what we want to do is show the data from 11:00 am on 04/01/2008 until 4:00pm 04/03/2008.

Does anyone have any idea what we can do? I really want to learn this but it's frustrating because we can't seem to get much help at school.
