I am working with a table that has a column which stores multiple data/values that are comma separated.
I need to be able to query that table and get those rows where the values in that column match a pre-defined search list.
I was thinking of somehow trying to take the search list and convert it to a table(temp or a cte) and then JOIN to the table.
however, since the column may contain multiple values, i would need to parse/separate that first. I am not sure how to parse and then join to a list (if that is even the best way to solve this) to only get the rows where the search column contains one or more of the items we're looking for.
Below is some sample data:
Declare @BaseTable table (PKCol int, Column2Search varchar(2000)) Insert into @BaseTable (PKCol, Column2Search) Select 1001, 'apple,orange,grapefruit' UNION ALL Select 1002, 'grapefruit,coconut' UNION ALL
I have my stored procedure set to Territory_code IN (@Territory)
, now , how do i enter in more then one value. When i select the multi value check box, it gives me more spaces. But then doesnt recognize the values when i put in more then one. am i doing something wrong?
We have SharePoint list which has, say, two columns. Column A and Column B.
Column A can have three values - red, blue & green.
Column B can have four values - pen, marker, pencil & highlighter.
A typical view of list can be:
Column A - Column B red - pen red - pencil red - highlighter blue - marker blue - pencil green - pen green - highlighter red - pen blue - pencil blue - highlighter blue - pencil
We are looking to create a report from SharePoint List using SSRS which has following view:
red blue green pen 2 0 1 marker 0 1 0 pencil 1 3 0 highlighter 1 1 1
We tried Sum but not able to display in single row.
I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.
What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column.
I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.
I am trying to exclude records from a table where the ID column is the same but the Mail code Column is multi-valued.For Example: (the table looks like....)
I have two tables, one a data table, the other a product table. I want to perform a join on the two tables with values distributed into columns based on the value in the month field.
Hi,Would like to know the performance differenece between Multi-columnIndex vs Single Column Indexes. Let's say I have a table with col1,col2, col3 along with a primary key column and non-indexed columns.In queries, I will use col1, col2, and col3 together and some timesjust one or two of these three columns. My questions is, should Icreate one index contains col1, col2, and col3, or create 3 seperatedcolumns. I.e. each column has its own index. Any performancedifference?Thanks a lot.
At the top of my report, if I want to display the selected value for a given parameter, I can put this expression in a text box:
="The xyz param's value is: " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(0).ToString
How do I go about displaying all the selected values for a multi-value parameter (one that has mulitple checkboxes in the drop-down list)? Is it possible to do a for loop and iterate through the values of the param within an expression? Something like
for i = 0 to Parameters!paramXYZ.Count - 1 mystring = mystring & ", " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(i).ToString
And then display mystring in the textbox? Or can I use a list control on the report?
Is it possible to pass values from UI to a multi-value parameter in a report and from this report, select values from this multi-value parameter to finally display data?
Hi, I have developed a report that uses oracle as the database. I have wrote my query by creating a dataset. In the query I am also calling a function. query: select EmpName, get_Client_Count(:cities), POS from ...
--function definition create or replace function get_Client_Count(cities in varchar2) return number is .... From the report I have multi selectable dropdown check box list for Cities.
the function returns count when I select only one city. Works fine with no problem. As soon as I select multiple cities I am getting the following error ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'get_client_Count' I know this error was thrown since multiple values were selected.
Has anyone come across this situation and came up with workaround or solution to this? I really appreciate your inputs.
I have a gridview that is based on the selection(s) in a listbox. The gridview renders fine if I only select one value from the listbox. I recive this error though when I select more that one value from the listbox: Syntax error converting the nvarchar value '4,1' to a column of data type int. If, however, I hard code 4,1 in place of @ListSelection (see below selectCommand WHERE and IN Clauses) the gridview renders perfectly. <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSourceAll" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT dbo.Contacts.Title, dbo.Contacts.FirstName, dbo.Contacts.MI, dbo.Contacts.LastName, dbo.Contacts.Suffix, dbo.Contacts.Dear, dbo.Contacts.Honorific, dbo.Contacts.Address, dbo.Contacts.Address2, dbo.Contacts.City, dbo.Contacts.StateOrProvince, dbo.Contacts.PostalCode FROM dbo.Contacts INNER JOIN dbo.tblListSelection ON dbo.Contacts.ContactID = dbo.tblListSelection.contactID INNER JOIN dbo.ListDescriptions ON dbo.tblListSelection.selListID = dbo.ListDescriptions.ID WHERE (dbo.tblListSelection.selListID IN (@ListSelection)) AND (dbo.Contacts.StateOrProvince LIKE '%') ORDER BY dbo.Contacts.LastName"> <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="ListSelection" DefaultValue="1"/> </SelectParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource> The selListID column is type integer in the database. I'm using the ListBox1_selectedIndexChanged in the code behind like this where I've tried using setting my selectparameter using the label1.text value and the Requst.From(ListBox1.UniqueID) value with the same result:
Protected Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged Dim Item As ListItem For Each Item In ListBox1.Items If Item.Selected Then If Label1.Text <> "" Then Label1.Text = Label1.Text + Item.Value + "," Else Label1.Text = Item.Value + "," End If End If Next Label1.Text = Label1.Text.TrimEnd(",") SqlDataSourceAll.SelectParameters("ListSelection").DefaultValue = Request.Form(ListBox1.UniqueID) End Sub What am I doing wrong here? Thanks!

hi, i am using ssrs 2005 and need to pass the multi selected parameter values to another report. how can i achieve this task? I use jump to report option.
I have a report that has 2 dropdowns, selecting from the first dropdown populates the second one. This works fine in the BI Studio.
When I deploy this report to the 'Report Manager' and make a selection from the first dropdown, the second dropdown loads (as expected). I tried to select from the second dropdown (which has only 1 item - which is correct), the dropdown does not appear correctly - as in, I can't see that item.
Since we can't attach anything here, below is the link to a screenshot of my issue: http://docs.google.com/View?docid=ddd6j2xn_52c5qd5
If you look closely at the screenshot from the link above, you'll see that there is a value in the second dropdown - it just won't show completely - as if the dropdown is not rendering correctly. I can view source on the page and see that the dropdown has a value.
What appears to be happening is the if only 1 item is in the second dropdown and that item is longer than the size of the dropdown, the dropdown won't render.
Here is my value for the second dropdown '012 Candy Gadler David Thapero'. This is the only value in the second dropdown. - You can try 35 chars or more in the dropdown to confirm.
Notes: + No special chars are in either dropdown + I am using IE 7 (Also had someone test this on IE 6 - same problem) + Using Visual Studio 2005 to build report - where this works fine
Work around: + If I add another item to the dropdown via a UNION query, I see the original value + the new item in the dropdown #2
I got issue when passing multiple values to a single parameter. Here is my stored procedure as following:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[School] @Grade AS varchar(50), @Class As varchar(50) AS BEGIN SELECT Name, Grade, Class FROM School WHERE Grade = (IsNull(@Grade, Grade)) AND Class IN (IsNull(@Class, Class )) END
In the front end, I got multiple values for Subject parameters such as Math, English, Reading, etc... in a specified class. How do I can modify my above stored procedure to receive multiple values for a single parameter.
I was working on figuring out where a certain application wasstoring the multiple selection choices I was doing through the app.I finally figured out that they were being store in an IMAGEdata type colum with the variable length of 26 bytes.This is the first time I ran into such way of storing multipleselections in a single Image data type.Is this a better alternative than to store into a One-to-Manytables? If so then I'll have to consider using the Image datatype approach next time I have to do something like storing1 to thousands of selections.Thank you
Hi thereGot a interesting problem (depends on a point of view.....).Background :-Agent (within Domino) is run daily basis which extracts data fromDomino Notes application to SQL Server 2000 database. Agent firstremoves ALL contents and then appends ALL data.Reporting Tool is SQL Reporting Services (very cool !!).Problem :-Within Domino Notes, it can have a field which is mult-value fieldi.e. contain multi valuese.g.(from Helpdesk application)!HowTo!!Access Email;!HowTo!!Access the Web;etc..Need to create a view, then use sql to create stored proc, to be usedas the dataset for report within SQL Reporting services.Format. (using above as data as example)!HowTo!!Access Email; (1 row) WWL/SDR/04023/010 (DocID)!HowTo!!Access the Web; (2 row) WWL/SDR/04023/010 (DocID)I have a unique KEY within table called DocID. The report will have 8separate datasets (i.e. using subreports), all linked back to UniqueKey. That's easy.The dataset causing me hassle is the 1 above. How do u split outvalues as separate rows ?Name of field called --> "ImpFunctionsImpacted".Also, notes expert, who's working on the agent, tell's me the data canbe split either as a comma or semi-colon.Any suggestions most welcome.
I have a problem with multi-value parameter in ReportingServices2005, hope to find a solution here.
if I use ordinary parameter in a report(multi-value checkbox is not selected), after deployment I can click on drop down list and type possible value of that parameter using keyboard(it will be selected from what i typed).
if I use multi-value parameter somewhy it doesn't respond to anything i type from my keyboard.
Why is that? What should i do to make that multi-value parameter select possible result from what i type?
how to handle space between multi-value parameter values in SSRS. For e.g. if the values are as follows -'KLO LUG', 'HGY KIU', 'LOT JUY', I know I can use the split function for the commas but its the space between the value which is the problem.
I have SQL Server 2012 SSIS. I have Excel source and OLE DB Destination.I have problem with importing CustomerSales column.CustomerSales values like 1000.00,2000.10,3000.30,NotAvailable.So I have decimal values and nvarchar mixed in on Excel column. This is requirement for solution.However SSIS reads only numeric values correctly and nvarchar values are set as Null. Why?
Bitmask fields! I am capturing row changes manually via a high frequency ETL task. It works effectively however i am capturing the movement of multiple fields. A simple example, for Order lines, i have a price, a discount and a date. I am capturing a 001, 010, 100 respectively for each change.
I would like my users to be able to select from a dimension which has the 3 members in it and they can select one, multiples, or all values (i.e. only want to see rows that have had the date and price changed).
Obviously if i only had 3 columns i would use bit's and be done with it, i have many different values (currently around 24 and growing).
I understand that Multi-Select Parameters are converted behind the scenes to an In Clause when a report is executed. The problem that I have is that my multi-select string parameter is turned into an in claused filled with nvarchar/unicode expressions like:
Where columnName in (N'Value1', N'Value2', N'Value3'...)
This nvarchar / unicode expression takes what is already a fairly slow-performing construct and just drives it into the ground. When I capture my query with Profiler (so I can see the In Clause that is being built), I can run it in Management Studio and see the execution plan. Using N'Values' instead of just 'Value1', 'Value2','Value3' causes the query performance to drop from 40 seconds to two minutes and 40 seconds. It's horrible. How can I make it stop!!!?
Is there any way to force the query-rewriting process in Reporting Services to just use plain-old, varchar text values instead of forcing each value in the list to be converted on the fly to an Nvarchar value like this? The column from which I am pulling values for the parameter and the column that I am filtering are both just plain varchar.
I have 6 columns: Column1a, Column1, Column2a, Column2, Column3a, Column3
I need a statement that will go through the whole table as follows: For each row, if column3 is not null then return column3 as columnB and column3a as ColumnA. If column3 is null then if column2 is not null then return column2 as columnB and column2a as columnA. If column3 & column2 is null then return column1 as columnB and column1a as columnA.
Price ----- 777 888 999 777 888 999 777 888 999 (pretend these columns are side by side) ======================
I need to make a query to: SELECT PRICE AS 'PRICE1' WHERE PRICELIST = 1 AND SELECT PRICE AS 'PRICE2' WHERE PRICELIST = 2 AND SELECT PRICE AS 'PRICE3' WHERE PRICELIST = 3
the output that i want is:
PRICE1 ------ 777 777 777
PRICE2 ------ 888 888 888
PRICE3 ----- 999 999 999 (pretend these columns are also side by side)
I have a [TestTable] table with three rows. The pair of columns [Test1] and [Test2] are id, the [Test3] is a data column. First, I get a table variable with list of id pairs. Next, I would like to update the rows of that ids. However, I have not found the elegant way how to do it. For one column it is simple, just IN clause, which does not work (or I could not find how) for multi-columns. Does someone have a hint?
Thanks,
Martin
Note: The example bellow is dummy; on the other hand, I hope it shows the important points. Please, do not beat me on syntax errors.
Code Block DECLARE @MyTableVar table( Test1 int NOT NULL, Test2 int NOT NULL );
SELECT [Test1],[Test2] INTO @MyTableVar FROM [TestTable] WHERE [Test3] = '%dd%';
UPDATE [TestTable] SET [Test3] = [Test3] + 'ds' WHERE ([Test1], [Test2]) IN (SELECT [Test1], [Test2] FROM @MyTableVar);
