Hoping someone here can help. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but I'm surprised not to see a data flow task in SSIS for splitting *columns* to different destinations. I see the Conditional Split task can be used to route a *row* one way or another, but what about columns of a single row?
As a simple and somewhat contrived example, let's say I have a row with twelve fields and I'm importing the row into a normalized data structure. There are three target tables with a 1-to-1 relationship (that is, logically they are one table, but physically they are three tables, with one of them considered the "primary" table), and the twelve input fields can be mapped to four columns in each of the three tables.
How do I "split" the columns? The best way I can see is to Multicast the row to three different OLE-DB Destinations, each of which inserts to one of the three target tables, only grabbing the four fields needed from the input row.
Or should I feed the row through three successive OLE-DB Command tasks, each one inserting into the appropriate table? This would offer the advantage, theoretically, of allowing me to grab the identity-based surrogate primary key from the first of the three inserts in order to enable the two subsequent inserts.
Hi all, I have a requirement like this , I have Address Column.It is containing data like Mr. K KK Tank Guntur Jal Bhavan, Univercity Road, Rajkot 9843563469 I have to split this into 3 more columns like(Address1,name,phoneno)-- Means i have 4 columns including Address Column.(Address,Address1,name,phoneno)
Example: Address:Rajkot Address1:Univercity Road Name:Mr. K KK Tank Guntur Jal Bhavan PhoneNO:9843563469
How can i acheive this one with out data lose in Address Column. Thanks in advance.
So I have been trying to get mySQL query to work for a large database that I have. I have (lets say) two tables Table_One and Table_Two. Table_One has three columns: Type, Animal and TestID and Table_Two has 2 columns Test_Name and Test_ID. Example with values is below:
In Table_One all types come under one column and the values of all Types (Mammal, Fish, Bird, Reptile) come under another column (Animals). Table_One and Two can be linked by Test_ID
I am trying to create a table such as shown below:
This should be my final table. The approach I am currently using is to make multiple instances of Table_One and using joins to form this final table. So the column Bird, Reptile, Mammal and Fish all come from a different copy of Table_one.
For e.g
Select Test_Name AS 'Test_Name', Table_Bird.Animal AS 'Birds', Table_Mammal.Animal AS 'Mammal', Table_Reptile.Animal AS 'Reptile, Table_Fish.Animal AS 'Fish' From Table_One
[Code] .....
The problem with this query is it only works when all entries for Birds, Mammals, Reptiles and Fish have some value. If one field is empty as for Test_Two or Test_Three, it doesn't return that record. I used Or instead of And in the WHERE clause but that didn't work as well.
I have a table with a string value, where all values are seperated by a space/blank. I now want to use SQL to split all the values and insert them into a different table, which then later will result in deleting the old table, as soon as I got all values out from it.
Old Table:
Code: ID, StringValue
New Table:
Code: ID, Value1, Value2 Do note: Value1 is INT, Value2 is of nvarchar, hence Value2 can contain spaces... I just need to split on the FIRST space, then convert index[0] to int, and store index[1] as it is.
I can split on all spaces and just Select them all and add them like so: SELECT t.val1 + ' ' + t.val2... If I cant find the first space that is... I mean, first 2-10 characters in the string can be integer, but does not have to be.Shall probably do it in code instead of SQL?Now I want to run a query that selects the StringValue from OldTable, splits the string by ' ' (a blank) and then inserts them into New Table.
Code: SELECT CASE CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) WHEN 0 THEN OldTable.stringvalue ELSE SUBSTRING(OldTable.stringvalue, 1, CHARINDEX(' ', OldTable.stringvalue, 1) - 1) END AS FirstWord FROM OldTable
Found an example using strange things like CHARINDEX..But issue still remains, because the first word is of integer, or it does not have to be...If it isn't, there is not "first value", and the whole string shall be passed into "value2".How to detect if the very first character is of integer type?
Code: @declare firstDigit int IF ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) = 1 set @firstDigit = CAST(SUBSTRING(@postal,2,1) AS int) ELSE set @firstDigit = -1
I was to split each record into multiple columns. The problem is some records need to be split into only 1 column, others may need to be split into more. Also need to remove the "/"'s. This is all dependent on where a "/" is found. Been beating my head for a while and getting nowhere.
So:
create table #foo (myPK int, c1 nvarchar(425)) insert into #foo values (1,'/folder1') insert into #foo values (2,'/lvl1/folder2') insert into #foo values (3,'/folder1/lvl2/folder3') insert into #foo values (4,'/f1/folder2/lvl3/fldr4')
I have a delimited text file with 650+ columns. The sum of the column lengths of a single row, if fully populated, exceeds 30K bytes. The "killer" fields lengthwise are the "Description" fields. If they were removed from the input file, the remainig columns would occupy about 5000 bytes, which is within SQL max row length.
Can SSIS be used to created these two tables? (one without description fields, the other with those field but arranged vertically in the table rows).
The fundamental issue is I can not import a single file row into a sql table because that row length could exceed the max byte count for a row.
I have several tables that I need to sum up a colomn and display the results. I have been struggling with this for some time. Here are my Tables and their columns:
Ingredients_tbl IngredientID Description
Inventory_tbl IngredientID AmountRemaining Renconciled Active
Order_Details_tbl IngredientID OrderAmount Status
Order_Details_Details_tbl IngredientID OrderAmount Status
I want to display all the ingredients from the ingredients table, sum the amountremaining of the items that are reconciled = 'false' from the inventory_tbl, sum the orderamount from both the order_details_tbl and Order_details_details_tbl for each ingredient based on status. Here is some sample data and results I am looking for:
IngredientID Description Inventory = Sum of AmountRemaining of the records in Inventory_tbl where Renconciled = 'false' Production1 = sum of OrderAmount of the records in the Order_Details_tbl where Status = 'ORDERED' Or Status = 'MIXED' Production2 = sum of OrderAmount of the records in the Order_Details_Details_tbl where Status = 'ORDERED' Or Status = 'MIXED'
I thought this was going to be as easy as a few simple joins and aggregate sum on the colomns like this:
SELECT Ingredients_tbl.IngredientID, Ingredients_tbl.Description, Ingredients_tbl.LowInventory, SUM(Inventory_tbl.AmountRemaining) AS Inventory, SUM(Order_Details_tbl.OrderAmount) AS Production1, SUM(Order_Details_Details_tbl.OrderAmount) AS Production2 FROM Ingredients_tbl LEFT OUTER JOIN Inventory_tbl ON Inventory_tbl.IngredientID = Ingredients_tbl.IngredientID AND Inventory_tbl.Reconciled = 'False'
[Code] .....
But this obviously has its issues with incorrect returned sum values.
For a uncomplicated example, our database has 10 tables. Each table contains the column COMPANY. I need to change company from 1 to 4, and I don't want to have to update each table individually (because the number of tables is actually closer to 800).
COMPANY being a primary key isn't an issue.
Is there a painless way to update the COMPANY field in all user defined tables?
TRANAMT being the amount paid & TOTBAL being the balance due per the NAMEID & RMPROPID specified.The other table includes a breakdown of the total balance, in a manner of speaking, by charge code (thru a SUM(OPENAMT) query of DISTINCT CHGCODE
Also with a remaining balance (per CHGCODE) column. Any alternative solution that would effectively split the TABLE1.TRANAMT up into the respective TABLE2.CHGCODE balances? Either way, I can't figure out how to word the queries.
Hi, I have tried this code from http://jtkane.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!1pWDBCiDX1uvH5ATJmNCVLPQ!316.entry for full-text search on multiple tables & columns. Here's my code: SELECT * from [tStaffDir] AS e, [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] t,CONTAINSTABLE([tStaffDir], *, @Name) as AwhereA.[KEY] = e.[ID] andt.[ID] = e.[ID] I have FT the both the tables above and I am able to get results from the [tStaffDir] table but not the [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] table.The [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] table does have a column (which is [ID]) that is indexed, unique and non-Nullable.Please advise what I should do and look out for. Many Thanks.

Hi all, I am writing a portion of an app that is of intensely high online eCommerce usage. I have a question about identity columns and locking or not. What I am doing is, I have two tables (normalized), one is OrderDemographics(firstname,lastname,ccum,etc) the other is OrderItems. I have the primary key of OrderDemographics as a column called 'ID' (an Identity Integer that is incrementing). In the OrderItems table, the 'OrderID' column is a foreign key to the OrderDemographics Primary Key column 'ID'. What I have previously done is to insert the demographics into OrderDemographics, then do a 'select top 1 ID from OrderDemographics order by ID DESC' to get that last ID, since you can't tell what it is until you add another row.... The problem is, there's up to 20,000 users/sessions at once and there is a possiblity that in the fraction of a second it takes to select back that ID integer and use it for the initial OrderItems row, some other user might have clicked 'order' a fraction of a second after the first user and created another row in OrderDemographics, thus incrementing the ID column and throwing all the items that Customer #1 orders into Customer #2's order.... How do I lock a SQL table or lock the Application in .NET to handle this problem and keep it from occurring? Thanks, appreciate it.
Im just curious how i would take multiple columns from multiple tables.... would it be something like this ??? table: Products COLUMNS ProductName, ProductID table: Categorys COLUMNS CategoryName, CategoryID,ProductID SELECT Products.ProductName, Categorys.CategoryName,Products.ProductID,Categorys.CategoryID,Categorys.ProductID FROM Categorys, Tables WHERE Products.ProductID = Categorys.ProductID
Table A has columns CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation
Table B in a differnt database has columns ID, Product, Tool Operation
I cannot edit table A. I can select records from A and insert into B. And I can select only the records that are in both tables.
But I want to be able to select any records that are in table A but not in Table B.
ie. I want to select records from A where the combination of Product, Tool and Operaton does not appear in Table B, even if all 3 on their own do appear.
This code return all the records from A. I need to filter out the records found in Table B.
SELECT ID, CompressedProduct, oq.Tool, oq.Operation FROM OPENQUERY (Lisa_Link, 'SELECT DISTINCT CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation FROM tblToolStatus ts JOIN tblProduct p ON ts.ProductID = p.ProductID JOIN tblTool t ON ts.ToolID = t.ToolID JOIN tblOperation o ON ts.OperationID = o.OperationID WHERE ts.ToolID=66 ') oq LEFT JOIN Family f on oq.CompressedProduct = f.Product and oq.Tool = f.Tool and oq.Operation = f.Operation
Hi everyoneI guess this should be a simple question for the gurusI have a Data in a column which is to be places in 2 columns instead ofone. How do i go about doing it in MS SQL server? Could someone pleasehelp me. I could do it in access with an update query but things are alittle different in SQL server so I am a little lost.Eg.NameJohn?Doeto be split intoName LastNameJohn DoeThanks in advance.Prit
I am trying to get an address field into 2 colums. I need the number value in one column and street name in another column.
The data is stored: 876 blue ct 9987 red dr 23 windyknoll
This is what I haveelect substring(Address,0,charindex('',Address)) as number ,substring(Address, (charindex('',Address)+1) ,len(Address)) as address from contact
I like to push 1 column into 2 different columns just to show it on the screen. So no import in another table ore something like that. I have a table like this: Select Name from Cars; Result: Col1 BMWMercedesFordAudi But i like to make a query so it is displayed like this: Col1 Col2 BMW FordMercedes Audi So i can bound a table directly to that column!Is this possible with SQL, and how can i build it.Thanks.
i have labels for data stored in one cell eg: item1; item22; item231; and i want to convert it in following output (probably using substring and charindex)
Hi! I have a general SQL CE v3.5 design question related to table/file layout. I have an system that has multiple tables that fall into categories of data access. The 3 categories of data access are:
1 is for configuration-related data. There is one application that will read/write to the data, and a second application that will read the data on startup.
1 is for high-performance temporal storage of data. The data objects are all the same type, but they are our own custom object and not just simple types.
1 is for logging where the data will be permanent - unless the configured size/recycling settings cause a resize or cleanup. There will be one application writing alot [potentially] of data depending on log settings, and another application searching/reading sections of data. When working with data and designing the layout, I like to approach things from a data-centric mindset, because this seems to result in a better performing system. That said, I am thinking about using 3 individual SDF files for the above data access scenarios - as opposed to a single SDF with multiple tables. I'm thinking this would provide better performance in SQL CE because the query engine will not have alot of different types of queries going against the same database file. For instance, the temporal storage is basically reading/writing/deleting various amounts of data. And, this is different from the logging, where the log can grow pretty large - definitely bigger than the default 128 MB. So, it seems logical to manage them separately.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions from the SQL CE experts with regard to my approach. If there are any tips/tricks with respect to different data access scenarios - taking into account performance, type of data access, etc. - I would love to take a look at that.
I would appreciate any help on this project. I have created an Access database that contains one vehicle. I have also included all options on that vehicle, which are in one column. Therefore the main criteria for the vehicle is listed each time for each different option. On my report I am grouping by the vin and placing the main criteria in the group header area of the report. The options are going into the detail section. How do I get the options to print in two columns within the detail section? I am unable to find any help on this subject, so I am asking you for help.
Hi This is probably a very basic question for most people in this group. How do i split the data in a column in to 2 columns? This can be done in access with an update query but in MS SQL server I am not sure. Here is an example of what i want to acheive
I've a table similar to the one below, with a SKU, Category and Cost, and need using a simple select command, split the cost in two columns one for each category (1,2), I used a self-join, and it works, but it doesn't show values not equal in both categories
Declare @Tmp_SKUCatValue Table( SKU char(7) ,Cetegory Int ,Unit_cost Decimal ); INSERT INTO @Tmp_SKUCatValue (SKU, Cetegory,Unit_cost) Values ('sku-001',1,120)
