Column Splitting

Jun 22, 2007

Hi Everyone,I've been given the painstaking project of splitting a single column into multiple columns and rows. I have a solution set up in which I will be posting further down the post but I want to see if there is a much more efficient solution to this.sample data:create table tbl_list(pk_int_itmid int(5) Primary Key,vchar_desk vchar(300));create table tbl_test1(fk_int_itmid int(5) references tbl_list(pk_int_itmid),vchar_itm varchar(60));insert into tbl_list values(1, 'this item');insert into tbl_list values(2, 'that item');insert into tbl_list values(3, 'those items');insert into tbl_test1 values(1, 'A, B - C, D, E - F, G, H - I');insert into tbl_test1 values(2, 'J, K - L, M, N - O');insert into tbl_test1 values(3, 'P, Q - R');into this table:create table tbl_output(fk_int_itmid int(5) references tbl_list(pk_int_itmid),vchar_itmA varchar(60),vchar_itmB varchar(60),vchar_itmC varchar(60));Output in comma delimited form:'1', 'A', 'B', 'C''1', 'D', 'E', 'F''1', 'G', 'H', 'I''2', 'J', 'K', 'L''2', 'M', 'N', 'O''3', 'P', 'Q', 'R'my current solution:create view vw_itm_a as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itm, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itm, charindex('-',vchar_itm)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itm)-charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom tbl_test1where charindex(',',vchar_itm) >1Gocreate view vw_itm_b as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itm, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itm, charindex('-',vchar_itm)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itm)-charindex('-',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_awhere charindex(',',vchar_itmC) >1;Gocreate view vw_itm_c as select fk_int_itmid, substring(vchar_itmC, 0, charindex('-',vchar_itmC)) as vchar_itmA,substring(vchar_itmC, charindex('-',vchar_itmC)+1 , charindex(',',vchar_itmC)-charindex('-',vchar_itmC)) as vchar_itmB,substring(vchar_itmC, charindex(',',vchar_itmC)+1) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_bwhere charindex(',',vchar_itmC) >1;Go;create view vw_itm_d asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmB,substring(substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1), 0, charindex(',',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_a ia union vw_itm_b ib on ia.fk_int_itmid = ib.fk_int_itmidGo;create view vw_itm_e asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmB,substring(substring(vchar_itm, charindex(',',vchar_itm)+1), 0, charindex(',',vchar_itm)) as vchar_itmCfrom vw_itm_c ia union vw_itm_b ib on ia.fk_int_itmid = ib.fk_int_itmidGo;create view vw_itm asselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_awhere fk_int_itmid not in (select fk_int_itmid from vw_itm_b)unionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_dunionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_bwhere fk_int_itmid not in (select fk_int_itmid from vw_itm_c)unionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_eunionselect fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC from vw_itm_cGo;select fk_int_itmid, vchar_itmA, vchar_itmC, vchar_itmC into tbl_outputfrom vw_itmIs there a much more efficient manner of handling this column splitting?ThanksDC

Splitting Data From One Column Into Two

Jul 11, 2012

Running SQL 2005
Current Query is as follows:

SELECT
vPerf.DateTime,
vPerf.SampleCount,
vPerf.AverageValue,
vPerf.MinValue,

[code]....

This query was working well because I used to only be interested in one counter that was returned in the column, which was 'Free Megabytes'...I now have additional data that shows up as 'Total Disk Space'...Ideally, the query would return the total disk space next to the free megabytes on the same row for the same disk drive. Here is a couple rows of sample output:

AverageValueInstanceNameObjectNameCounterName
44549 C: LogicalDiskFree Megabytes
44548 C: LogicalDiskFree Megabytes
69452 C: LogicalDiskTotal Disk Space
69452 C: LogicalDiskTotal Disk Space

This is the ideal format, the average value column goes away:

InstanceNameObjectNameFree MegabytesTotal Disk SpaceC: LogicalDisk44549 69452

Splitting Up A Column In A Query

Splitting Delimited Column

Feb 19, 2008

I have a question for all the t-sql gurus.

I have a table with millions of rows, 1 particular attribute "FromPerson" contains a string
of email addresses, names, etc...
for example (formatting done by this window... not exists in database...completely cleaned to semi-colon delimited)

tomh@gmail.com; Snyder, John N.; jsnyder@yahoo.com; Miller, Jim; millerj@gmail.com; Tenbrow, Jack; Katie Winslow (can be x number of names, emails...)

as you can see... some of the delimited values match up with an email address, others have just names, or emails...
I have successfully split this into 1 row per value per say, but how do i get them to match up the values that do.
I think the splitting is really not helping the cause...
what i want is this...


tomg@hotmail.com tomg@hotmail.com
Snyder, John N. jsnyder@yahoo.com
Miller, Jim millerj@gmail.com
Tenbrow, Jack Tenbrow, Jack
Katie Winslow Katie Winslow


there could/can be other attributes, like datetime stamp, domain(if any)... etc... but I think I can add that
later...

any ideas?

Splitting A Comma Delimited Column

Feb 12, 2008



Hi

I wondered if anyone could help me. I have a table that holds an ID in the first column then a list of values split by commas in the 2nd column i.e.:

IDColumn: 1
2ndCoumn: 1stvalue, 2ndvalue, 3rdvalue, 4thvalue

I am trying to return as a dataset of this that shows the ID as column 1 then each value in the 2nd column as individual columns if I use SELECT LEFT('2ndColumn,PATINDEX(',',2ndColum)-1) I can return the first value as a column but then can't return any further values individually after the first column, I am just learning the new functionality in SSIS so not sure whether this would be my answer as apposed to T-SQL, if anyone has any advice on this it would be greatly appreciated?

Thanks in advance

Transact SQL :: Splitting Column Value While Keeping Existing Data

Jun 22, 2015

Currently I have a column with multiple postcodes in one value which are split with the “/” character along with the corresponding location data. What I need to do is split these postcode values into separate rows while keeping their corresponding location data.

For example
PostCode            Latitude               Longitude
66000/66100       42.696595            2.899370
20251/20270       42.196471            9.404951

Would become
PostCode            Latitude               Longitude
66000                    42.696595            2.899370
66100                    42.696595            2.899370
20251                    42.196471            9.404951
20270                    42.196471            9.404951

SQL 2012 :: Splitting Non-uniform Concatenated Address Column Into 2 Different Columns

Jan 13, 2015

I have a very interesting problem in T-SQL coding for which I can't figure out the solution. Actually there is a Line_1_Address column in our data warehouse address table which is being populated from various sources. Some sources have already concatenated house number + street address fields in the Line_1_Address column whereas one source has separated columns for both data fields.

Now I'm trying to extract data from this data warehouse table and I need to split the house number from street address and load it into separate columns in my destination table. In case there is no data for house number then I should load it as NULL.

The issue is that data in this Line_1_Address column is very inconsistent so I don't know which functions to use. Here is some sample data for your consideration:

Line_1_Address
101 E Commerce ST
120 E Commerce ST
2 Po Box
301 W. Bel Air Ave
West Main Street, PO Box 1388

Splitting SQL Server Date/Time Column Into Access Date Column And Access Time Column

Jan 24, 2008

I have an SSIS package that moves data from SQL Server to an legacy Access database. In SQL Server, there is a date/time column that I need to split into a separate date column and time column in the access database. Initially I just created a derrived column for the time and set the expression equal to the source date/time column from SQL Server. Unfortunately, that just makes the date column and time column the same having the full date/time.

What expression can I use during a derrived column transformation to assign just the date to a derrived column and just the time to another derrived column?

Thanks,

Steve

Splitting Values

Apr 25, 2007

I have a sql2005 db. I'm trying to perform a query that takes a list of values in a parm, breaks them up and uses them in an IN clause as follows:
<code>
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SelectPartialOrderListByDate] @StoreID varchar(255)ASBEGIN SET NOCOUNT ON; SELECT DISTINCT O.OrderID, M.InitialSalesCode, M.DateOccurred, M.ErrorCode   FROM dbo.OrderInfo O WITH (NOLOCK)   INNER JOIN dbo.Message M WITH (NOLOCK) ON O.OrderID = M.OrderID   WHERE O.StoreID IN (@StoreID)END
</code>
The values coming into the procedure are obviously in a varchar string format. 
Notice the boldfacing above. The values within this IN clause should be something like this after the conversion: IN (87,108).
How can I accomplish this? I've seen examples of creating a UDF and returning a table, but am not sure how to apply that to my situation via a code sample.
Could someone help me out?

Splitting Dates

May 3, 2004

I have a table that contains agrrements and contracts with dates. Now I need to calculate some things and I'd like the rows to only have one month per row.

I have rows like:

Agreement, Start, End
ID001, 2004-01-01, 2004-04-30


If I could get these single rows that contains 4 months into a temptable like this:

Agreement, Start, End
ID001, 2004-01-01, 2004-01-31
ID001, 2004-02-01, 2004-02-29
ID001, 2004-03-01, 2004-03-31
ID001, 2004-04-01, 2004-04-30

It would simplify my calculations very much. How to do this with a query or sp?

Splitting Strings

Nov 24, 2006

I everyone, I have been on the admin side of IT for the past 20 years and recently started to do some scripting (VBscript) and a little SQL.

I have developed a solution to meet the needs of some federal auditors, but not really met my needs yet.
What I have done is this.

I use MS Logparser to go out to 64 servers and copy the event logs into a DB on a SQL 2000 Ent. Server.

On the SQL server I have one StoredProcedure that parses out information from the security event log DB and put that info into a temp DB.


set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
go

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[stp_SecurityAuditReport]

AS

TRUNCATE TABLE SecurityEvents_Tmp

-- Parse Bank Number & UserName
INSERT INTO SecurityEvents_Tmp(DepartmentNumber, UserName, EventLog, RecordNumber, TimeGenerated, TimeWritten, EventID, EventType, EventTypeName, EventCategory, EventCategoryName, SourceName, Strings, ComputerName, SID, Message, Data)
SELECT
DepartmentNumber = '001',
UserName = CASE
WHEN Strings LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,1,charindex('|',Strings,1)-1)
WHEN Strings LIKE '-|[0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,3,charindex('|',Strings,3)-3)
WHEN Strings LIKE '-|[a-z]%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,3,charindex('|',Strings,3)-3)
WHEN Strings LIKE 'Account Unlocked. |%'
THEN SUBSTRING(Strings,21,charindex('|',Strings,21)-21)
ELSE SUBSTRING(Strings,1,charindex('|',Strings,1)-1)
END,
Events.*
FROM Events
JOIN EventsToLog on Events.EventID = EventsToLog.EventID
WHERE SID NOT LIKE 'S-%'


-- Update blank usernames
UPDATE SecurityEvents_Tmp SET UserName = 'NO USERNAME'
WHERE UserName = '' OR UserName = '-'

-- Update DepartmentNumbers with zeros
UPDATE SecurityEvents_Tmp SET
DepartmentNumber = CASE
WHEN UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9][a-z]%' OR
UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]#%' OR
UserName LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9]$%'
THEN SUBSTRING(UserName,1,3)
ELSE '001' END


As you can see, we use 3 didgit numeric prefixes on all Departmental employee accounts. This is later used to produce departmenntal user audit reports.

I then have this script in a DTS that exports the report to an excel spreadsheet. (All works well for this purpose!)


DECLARE @TimeGenerated datetime
SELECT @TimeGenerated = TimeGenerated FROM SecurityEvents_TimeGenerated

DECLARE @TimeGeneratedEnd datetime
SELECT @TimeGeneratedEnd = TimeGeneratedEnd FROM SecurityEvents_TimeGenerated

SELECT DepartmentName = CASE WHEN b.DepartmentName IS NULL
THEN 'All Department' ELSE b.DepartmentName END,
a.EventID,d.EventDescription,a.UserName, a.TimeGenerated,c.Email1,c.Email2,c.Email3,c.Email4
FROM SecurityEvents_Tmp a
LEFT JOIN DepartmentList b on a.DepartmentNumber = b.DepartmentNumber
LEFT JOIN EmailToList c on b.DepartmentNumber = c.DepartmentNumber
JOIN EventsToLog d on a.EventID = d.EventID
WHERE b.Departmentnumber in (select Departmentnumber from Departmentlist)
AND a.TimeGenerated BETWEEN @TimeGenerated AND @TimeGeneratedEnd
ORDER BY b.DepartmentNumber,a.EventID,a.TimeGenerated


This combination of utils and scripts does very good for producing generic security reports for branch officers.

But now I am getting requests to justify/explain what is in these reports. The problem I have is that the information needed to delve further into the event logs is in a field called Strings. This field not only changes in length and the amount of fields within this string, but the information in this field changes depending on the type of event record it came from.


This is the Strings field from a failed logon (529)
200jenil|DOMAIN|10|User32 |Negotiate|SERVER|SERVER$|DOMAIN|(0x0,0x3E7)|6920|-|10.190.12.10|48397

And this is from Event ID 642 which was an account being created.
-|381$cmiller|DOMAIN|%{S-1-5-21-3554868564-134719009-1577582102-7972}|Jmotta|DOMAIN|(0x0,0x58F635E)|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|%%1792|-|-

Now, my script does a good job of getting the first user name out but as in the 642 event the second users name would be useful as well. This is the person that created/modified the user account.

So what I was hoping was that I could use a function (or whatever) to automaticaly split the Strings value into it's individual components and put them into an auto-sizing temp table as something like Field1, Field2, Field3, and so on until the end of string.

I could then use a case to get the information needed.

HELP PLEASE!!



Thank You,

Splitting A Database

Feb 21, 2008

I have a large db (sql 2005 express) that is, well, basically a mess. It is not normalized properly and contains masses amount of data (due to so much repeating data). To make a long story short - this db needs to be redesigned, but management said no, so that is not an option - so please, no one suggest that that's what I do.

My application creates reports based on this db - the problem is, the sp's are slow - and when a report needs to run several reports, it takes a long time to run. The sp's and db have been optimized as best I can (adding indexes etc.,)

I was wondering if there is a way to split the db - what I want to do is just retain, say 2 years of data in 1 db, and store the rest of the data in the other db, as 2 years worth of data is 95% of what will be queried. I did copy over 2 years worth for testing, and reports that took 30 minutes in the existing db, take less than 1 minute (sometimes even faster) in the new db - a huge improvement.

My problem is how to deal with the times that I need more than 2 years worth of data - how do I query both db's to get my application to read the data from both db's so that it seems that I am only running one db? The new db would be updated daily with new data, but not the old db - so if I had to query 10 years worth of data, I need 2 years from the first db, and then the 8 yeas from the second db.

If anyone can provide some feedback or point me in the right direction of what I should research in order to accomplish the above - I would appreciate it.

If anyone knows of a better solution - please don't be shy - speak up! :)

Thanks - ann

For instance, in the old database, the variable forname was such that it included both first and last names, whereas inthe new database there are seperate entities for first and last name.I know that there is a way to write a script that will separate out thetwo strings by using the "space" in between the name, but I'munfamiliar how to do this. Any suggestions? Thanks!Rick

Splitting Up A String

Jan 9, 2008

If I have a string of
'WLL EXT FACE REND'

how would I go about splitting the string into 4 strings of
'WLL'
'EXT'
'FACE'
'REND'

I know that for the first bit I can use a combination of PATINDEX and LEFT, but not sure how I can pull out the rest of them.

Thanks
