Sorting A Column In Descending Order Which Contains Two Years

May 21, 2014

I am trying to sort this simplied table:

ID - Time
1 2000-2001
2 2002-
3 2001-2003
4 1999
5 2005-2006

I want this as a result:

1999
2000-2001
2001-2003
2005-2006
2002-

Because the "-" means "continues", it the thing is still activated, so if it makes it easier, i could put the today's year afterwards during the query, if it ends with a - ...

Now, simply doing a
SELECT * FROM [table] ORDER BY TIME;

Sorts it "perfectly", apart from the "2002-" is just placed before 2005 and after 2001.

So, of course, it fails on all entries with a leading "-" ...

Right when I clicked "submit", of course, I can simply replace all entries with a time ending with "-", with the todays Year, so at least they will get at the end of the query...

Well, have to do a union, first sorting all without the "-", then sorting all with the "-", and that should be it...

How To Get Dates In Descending Order.

Sep 21, 2007

Hey guys, I have a view with dates (TheDate) meant to be arranged in descending order. When I 'Execute SQL' while in the view, the DESC order works just fine and shows up with the latest date first going down. However, once I 'OPEN VIEW' the order keeps defaulting to ASCending order.

How do I keep it in DESC order for viewing? Here's the statement:

SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT TheDate
FROM dbo.MyDates
ORDER BY TheDate DESC

SQL Server 2012 :: Sales Over Years - Retrieve Values In Single Query For Multiple Years And Grand Total?

Apr 24, 2015

I need to list customers in a table that represents sales over the years.

I have tables:

Customers -> id | name |...
Orders -> id | idCustomer | date | ...
Products -> id | idOrder | unitprice | quantity | ...

I am using this SQL but it only gets one year:

SELECT customers.name , SUM(unitprice*qt) AS total
FROM Products
INNER JOIN Orders ON Orders.id = Products.idOrder
INNER JOIN Customers ON Customers.id = Orders.idCustomer
WHERE year(date)=2014
GROUP BY customers.name
ORDER BY 2 DESC

I need something like this:

customer | total sales 204 | total sales | 2015 | total sales (2014 + 2015)
--------
customer A | 1000$ | 2000$ | 3000$
customer B | 100$ | 100$ | 200$

Is it possible to retrieve these values in a single SQL query for multiple years and grand total?

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 Cursor Output WITHOUT Using Order By

Mar 1, 2004

Hi,
I have a situation where I need to sort the output of a cursor. But since the sort criteria are rather complex, I am NOT able to use the Order By clause directly with the cursor definition statement.

Hence, I need to have a solution where I will use a dummy (calculated) field within the CURSOR and I want the output of this cursor sorted by the dummy field that I calculated within the cursor itself.

Please let me know the different possibilities in this scenario.

Thank you in advance

Default Sort Order When Order By Column Value Are All The Same

Apr 14, 2008

Hi,
We got a problem.
supposing we have a table like this:

CREATE TABLE a (
aId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
aName string2 NOT NULL
)
go
ALTER TABLE a ADD
CONSTRAINT PK_a PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (aId)
go


insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
insert into a values ('bank of abcde');
...
... (20 times)

select top 5 * from a order by aName
Result is:
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde

select top 10 * from a order by aName
Result is:
11Bank of abcde
10Bank of abcde
9Bank of abcde
8Bank of abcde
7Bank of abcde
6Bank of abcde
5Bank of abcde
4Bank of abcde
3Bank of abcde
2Bank of abcde

According to this result, user see the first 5 records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 in page 1, but when he tries to view page 2, he still see the records with id 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. This is not correct for users. :eek:

Of course we can add order by aid also, but there are tons of sqls like this, we can't update our application in one shot.

So I ask for your advice here, is there any settings can tell the db use default sort order when the order by column value are the same? Or is there any other solution to resolve this problem in one shot?

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 A Matrix Subtotal Column

Oct 30, 2007

I have a matrix with the rows consisting of customers and the columns consisting of different revenue streams. The revenue streams are totalled using the matrix subtotal feature. I would like to sort, either interactively or statically (if that is the only option) by the subtotal column. I've read through everything I can find online and even the solutions that appear to be appropriate do not work. Can anyone give me a suggestion?

Sorting Three Different Data Through One Column With 2 Values Only.

Jan 21, 2008



can anyone please help on a sql statement that would sort out three kinds of data. let's say i have a column that contains a status flag. there are only 2 possible values, add and delete. now, i want to sort out three kinds of data: add_only, delete_only, and update. Update is the data that contains duplicate records in the table. Which means, there are two rows having same "student_number" but two different status flags. This happens when there's an update or change in data, such as new address or new phone number. The old row/data is sent with status flag of delete, while the updated data is sent with status flag of add. Example below. An output table with a new column of tag is created.












reports table

STUDENT_NO
NAME
ADDRESS
PHONE
STATUS FLAG


1
McKenzie
Ohio
9111111
add


2
Hario

Dynamic Column Sorting After Merge Join

Feb 25, 2008



Hello,
I have data coming in from two sources, one being SQL and the other being Oracle. The end result needs to be a CSV file with the columns in a specific order. I have a Data Flow task setup that takes both sources and does a Merge Join on them. I can add a Sort Transformation and manually set the sorting of all 156 columns that end up going to a CSV file destination. However, I have a table setup that holds the names of the 156 columns and the order that the CSV file expects them to be in. I would much rather do this step dynamically as the column names and order may change in the future. Anyone who has used the Sort Transformation for a large number of columns knows how tedious it can be and how adding a column in the middle will cause you to change the sort # for each of the columns that come after it.

So I added a Script Component between the Merge Join and the Flat File Destination hoping that I could alter the order of the columns there. However I added the following code and found that the SortKeyPosition is ReadOnly.


Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)


Dim column As IDTSInputColumn90

For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection



column.SortKeyPosition = 1

Next

End Sub

I was hoping to add some code to get the sort index from my table for each of the columns and set it to the SortKeyPosition. Has anyone out there done this before or seen an example that might point me in the right direction? I've searched for 2 days without coming up with much.

Thanks!

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.


Thanks
