Hi everyone
I guess this should be a simple question for the gurus
I have a Data in a column which is to be places in 2 columns instead of
one. How do i go about doing it in MS SQL server? Could someone please
help me. I could do it in access with an update query but things are a
little different in SQL server so I am a little lost.
Eg.
Name
John?Doe
to be split into
Name LastName
John Doe
Thanks in advance.

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.

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
FName
John?Doe
FName LName

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
[code]....
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:
**TABLE_ONE**
Type Animal TestID
-----------------------------------------
Mammal Goat 1
Fish Cod 1
Bird Chicken 1
Reptile Snake 1
Bird Crow 2
Mammal Cow 2
Bird Ostrich 3
**Table_Two**
Test_name TestID
-------------------------
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_2 2
Test_2 2
Test_3 3
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:
Test_Name Bird Reptile Mammal Fish
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Test_1 Chicken Snake Goat Cod
Test_2 Crow Cow
Test_3 Ostrich
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.
A#B#C
A#B
A#B#C#D
How do I split above value in columns by "#"?
I need output:
Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4
A B C
A B
A B C D
I want to display full name column as FirstName and LastName.
Eg if Full Name is Abhas Jadhav then i want to convert it into FirstName- Abhas and LastName - Jadhav
i.e. Before Space is FirstName and After Space is LastName.
I have a table called products with the values like
ProductId ProductName
10 A
20 D,E,F,G
30 B,C
40 H,I,J
I need to display each productid's with
ProductId ProductName
10 A
20 D
20 E
20 F
20 G
30 B
30 C
40 H
40 I

I will be appreciated if you can send me the code.

any idea?
Hello,
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.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
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.
Thank you all! Timpy
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)
[code].....
The result is as
SKU----------UCost_Cat1-----UCost_Cat2
sku-001------120--------------222
sku-002------126--------------228
sku-003------132--------------234
sku-004------138--------------240
sku-005------144--------------246
-----------------------------------------------------------
but missing the following lines,
SKU----------UCost_Cat1-----UCost_Cat2
sku-006------333--------------null
sku-007------null--------------444
Is ok to not show sku-008 as it is not part of category 1 or 2?

I have a single string "XYZ00001|Test_b|XYZ00002|Test_a|XYZ00003|Test_c" that will continue to grow over time.
Is there a way I can extract the values from the string into two separate columns?
XYZ0001 Test_b

Our front end saves all IP addresses used by a customer as a comma separated string, we need to analyse these to check for blocked IPs which are all stored in another table.
A LIKE statement comparing each string with the 100 or so excluded IPs will be very expensive so I'm thinking it would be less so to split out the comma separated values into tables.
The problem we have is that we never know how many IPs could be stored against a customer, so I'm guessing a function would be the way forward but this is the point I get stuck.
I can remove the 1st IP address into a new column and produce the new list ready for the next removal, also as part of this we would need to create new columns on the fly depending on how many IPs are in the column.
This needs to be repeated for each row
SELECT IP_List
, LEFT(IP_List, CHARINDEX(',', IP_List) - 1) AS IP_1
, REPLACE(IP_List, LEFT(IP_List, CHARINDEX(',', IP_List) +0), '') AS NewIPList1
FROM IpExclusionTest
Results:
IP_List
109.224.216.4,146.90.13.69,146.90.85.79,46.208.122.50,80.189.100.119

How to do this in SQL server ?
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')
Should return as:
folder1
lvl1
folder2
folder1
lvl2
folder3
f1
folder2
lvl3
fldr4
