I need to count the number of record for each user (on the datetime) BUT if there are x records in the same minute, I want to count it only one time.
Exemple: the user 1 and the user 3
For the user 1, the result should be 1 because there are 2 records for him, but 2 in the same minute.
For the user 3, the result should be 3 because there are 4 records for him, but 3 in the same minute.
I have any idea about the way to do it.
Your council are welcom ;o)

I want to thank Brett Kaiser and Pat Phelan for advising me to get the "The Guru's Guide to Transcact-SQL" HOLY MOLY what an awesome book and the software that comes with it is so awesome "Sequin". This book is better then any of the Microsoft books, it breaks it all down for you and doesnt make it too difficult to understand I stayed up late last night reading this book. (which is why I'm exhausted today). This is by far the best Transact-SQL book I have ever come across.
I like to extract all special characters in one table with many fields. How can I handle this without using 'replace' for each field and many characters ?
How can I insert by asp a string containing 'That's the stringAsp code:SQL = "insert into tablename (columnA) values ('" & variable & "')"The problem is when variable contains a ' (single quote), it stops thestring definition and get an error.Can I do something?Thanks--Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG
Our SQL 2005 databases have "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" collation settings on the server. One of tables has one column declared as "ntext". When we try to insert "‚¬" character directly trough insert statement and retrieve it, we're getting right results. When we use web-services to insert data with this character (euro), and retrieving the data back, we're not getting this sign back. We are getting some characters like little squares. If I try to copy and paste them into notepad, I am getting ??? However, when I tried to place them here, I got them right:
‚¬ Å Å¡ Ž ž Å’ Å“ Ÿ
How can we assure visually they are inserted properly?
I need to get the data into this table (i'll call the table MyTest) -MemberID -FirstName -LastName -BeginDate -EndDate -ProgramCode -StatusCode
The catch: For each record in the demograph table I need only one segment and that segment is to be based on the greatest EndDate.
What I need: Give me the last segment for each demograph record and put each into it table MyTest
In my pseodo thinking INSERT INTO MyTest (MemberID, FirstName, LastName, BeginDate, EndDate, ProgramCode, StatusCode) SELECT Demograph.MemberID, Demograph.FirstName, Demograph.LastName, InsuranceSegments.BeginDate, InsuranceSegments.EndDate, InsuranceSegments.ProgramCode, InsuranceSegments.StatusCode FROM Demograph INNER JOIN InsuranceSegments ON Demograph.MemberID = InsuranceSegments.MemberID WHERE { Need help :-) } Need help with the where clause to get the segment with the 'highest/latest' EndDate
Sorry for the wall of text. I hope this is enough information to receive help and would like to thank you in advance for your time :-)
I have about 12 different databases, which about 4 of them are have no user mapped to it. Under the SA login, databases are mapped to the "dbo". The 4 I am having issues with have no user mapped. They are blank.
Here is where I am at... Security>Logins>sa>Login Properties>User Mapping
The columns are "Map", "Database", "User", and "Default Schema"
Here is an example of the correct Selection Map=checked, Database=eDistribution, User=dbo, Default Schema=dbo
Now here is an example of a problem database Map=unchecked, Database=FORMS, User=blank, Default Schema=blank
Here is the error when trying to add the "dbo" as a user
Any ideas?

Im starting a project that will be used to reserve rooms in a building. My problem right now is writing an sql statement that will return a dataset with the proper results. I have three tables setup below. I need a dataset that returns rooms that are closed on a certain date and a set that returns open rooms on a particular date.I cant seem to figure out that sql statement... Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. tblRooms pkRoomID fkReservationID tblDates pkDateID fkReservationID tblReservation pkReservationID fkRoomID fkDateID
On the bills that our system generates there is a comments field that users fillout. We have occasional problems with special characters in the text messing up the validation code. Does anyone know of a query that can identify special characters in a text field? Like carriage returns, tabs, etc.? Thanks, Dave
The following SELECT query gives me a list of 50 plus countries. How do I order them by 'United States' First (happens to be ID 225) and then alphabetical? SELECT Country_ID, Country_Long FROM Countries WHERE isIndustrial = 1 ORDER BY Country_Long
I made a stored proc for update fields in a table everything is correct but when my new field contains a special caracter like *,/,[, ' , and a space too i have an error. I wrote it and i don't understand why it doesn't work.
I have to bring in data from a text file into the sql server database. I use the BCP utility in pulling the data.
The flat file data contains special characters like ®. This is the registered trade mark symbol. When I bcp the file using the character mode the special characters are automatically changed to «. So If I am going to pull a data like ACRYLON®, after the BCP I get it as ACRYLON«.
Inorder to replace all these I have written a program but since it has to scan every record the time taken is more. Will in be possible to accomodate iun the BCP to pull the data with special characters.
I have an DB in SQL Server 7, and in Portuguese we have special characters like "á","õ",etc. And I want to let the visitor to a site to do a search (written in ASP), and not to need to write the correct way (without the accents). But either he writes or not in the correct way, the results are the same, not necessarly in the same order. Is there a SQL Server mechanism that permits this functionality, without doing a very complicated SELECT (takes a lot of time) or replicating a field in the DB (takes a lot of extra space)...
I have a problem inserting German special chracters into a MSSql table.
üöäÖ works fine, but ßÜÄ are reduced to "_". I'm using a html form and a php script to enter the data into the database. Any idea why this isn't working? Funny thing is, when I use a german version of the SQL Server it also works without a problem... but I need this to work on ANY mssql server. Any help would be very much appreciated.
I had to update pricelist at local-db on the basis of prices in another SQL by matching the description. When i JOIN the tables, no record gets displayed, but the descrptions at both tables were exactly the same i believed. Took a lot of time in identifying the discrepancy; the data was like this:
CREATE TABLE #ABC (price money, DESCRIPTION VARCHAR(200)) GO INSERT #ABC SELECT 19999,'SQL2000 ' GO SELECT * FROM #ABC WHERE DESCRIPTION ='SQL2000' --(0 row(s) affected) SELECT * FROM #ABC WHERE LTRIM(RTRIM(DESCRIPTION))='SQL2000' --(0 row(s) affected) select * from #ABC WHERE REPLACE(DESCRIPTION,' ','')='SQL2000' --(1 row(s) affected) GO DROP TABLE #ABC :rolleyes: I believe, ENTER has some value within a field.

Hi,I have a MSSQL Server communicating with an Oracle database through aMSSQL linked server using a MS ODBC connection.If I query the Oracle database through the Oracle ODBC 32Bit Test, theresult is fine:select addrsurname from address where addrnr = 6666;HÅKANSSONIf I do the same query within the SQL Query Analyzer (using the linkedserver), I get:select * from openquery(TESTSW, 'select addrsurname from address whereaddrnr = 6666');H?KANSSONI have tried to both check and uncheck the Automatic ANSI to OEMconversion, but the result remains the same.Does anyone know what to do to make the result display the specialcharacters in SQL Query Analyzer?Thanks,Kenneth
Hi,This is a generic question, but for arguement's sake, let's say, myenvironment is SQL Server 2000.It seems that setting quoted_identifier off is the best way toaccomodate all sort of data input/update especially for data set thatcontains special characters like single quote as in O'Brien, otherfunky stuff like %^$*@#(!).However, this option won't help with a situation like data value of5'9",and let's say, we really can't predicate if this type of value will beused for ColA or ColB or ColC ...Examplecreate table #tmp (col1 varchar(30));set quoted_identifier off;insert into #tmp values("O'Brien's barking dog'");-- successinsert into #tmp values("O'book has funky (%^$*7) stuff");-- successinsert into #tmp values("John said "funky is OK" in his speech");-- failedGlobaly search and replace the double quotes before insert/update isjust too "expensive", not a good option.Now, if we can set a custom quoted_identifier, we can solve the aboveproblem easily, for instance,if MS SQL Server permits/acceptsset quoted_identier = '//$$';theninsert into #tmp values(//$$John said "funky is OK" in hisspeech//$$);(or the like)would succeedAny other thoughts/ideas? Thanks.Quote "Never stop thinking even though at times it may produce waste,which we all do, btw :) "
Beside its an opensource and supported by community, what's the fundamentaldifferences between PostgreSQL and those high-price commercial database (andsome are bloated such as Oracle) from software giant such as Microsoft SQLServer, Oracle, and Sybase?Is PostgreSQL reliable enough to be used for high-end commercialapplication? Thanks
Currently I have got a report where I want to insert special characters (like @, !, ?) at the end of a String which will be displayed in a textbox of the report. Wenn I insert the String value "test!?" the report will return this value "!?test".
Good day I've looked for information about this but to no avail. Essentially why does Reporting Services not support spaces and special characters in a Field Name? I know that SQL supports spaces utilizing [] brackets e.g. [Field Name With Spaces]. So how come RS doesn't? Thanks
I have try to take all our table from access to SQLSERVER 2005 But not all works, so is there away where i can not import a table from access but link a table from access to my SQL.
I know it is the wrong way, normally sql is the backend, but i can't get all to work when i use my sql as backend, so if i can connect me to access from my sql and link some tables ??
