Suppressing NULL Columns From My Result?
Sep 21, 2007
Hello guys I have a very simple query that is to be used to verify what users have access to what servers. Here it is:
/* SQL Server & Windows NT login name, security access */
USE master
go
SELECT name, loginname, sysadmin, securityadmin, serveradmin, setupadmin, @@SERVERNAME
FROM syslogins
WHERE status != 0
AND ((sysadmin = 1) OR (securityadmin =1) OR (serveradmin =1) OR (setupadmin = 1))
I would like to know how to stop the columns that have a null or 0 value from being returned to me. I don't want to see a bunch of 0s since almost no users do have these privaleges, I'd rather have that be hidden. Do I need to create a view for this? Thank You!

I need to send the result of a procedure to an update statement.Basically updating the column of one table with the result of aquery in a stored procedure. It only returns one value, if it didnt Icould see why it would not work, but it only returns a count.Lets say I have a sproc like so:create proc sp_countclients@datecreated datetimeasset nocount onselect count(clientid) as countfrom clientstablewhere datecreated > @datecreatedThen, I want to update another table with that value:Declare @dc datetimeset @dc = '2003-09-30'update anothertableset ClientCount = (exec sp_countclients @dc) -- this line errorswhere id_ = @@identityOR, I could try this, but still gives me error:declare @c intset @c = exec sp_countclients @dcWhat should I do?Thanks in advance!Greg

Hi guys,
I've got a query on a particular table returning an odd result:
SELECT DISTINCT WorkStation
FROM Invoice
WHERE WorkStation Is Not Null
ORDER BY WorkStation
This query returns the rows I'd expect plus a null row. This doesn't happen in databases at other sites, or in other tables at this site. The following query behaves as I'd expect returning only non-null AccountNumbers.
SELECT DISTINCT AccountNumber
FROM Suppliers
WHERE AccountNumber Is Not Null
ORDER BY AccountNumber
I can't reproduce these results on another site on a table of the same structure, or on another table at this site.
Any suggestions as to what might be going on?
Pertinent info:

SELECT * INTO #Inv FROM Invoice
SELECT DISTINCT WorkStation

Does not reproduce this problem (and so is a probable fix) but the questions remains, what causes this?
TIA,

I have two columns A (which allows nulls) and B( which does not allow nulls).
How can I add the contents of columns A and B SO THAT I DO NOT GET A NULL RESULT WHEN A IS NULL.
The result of A+B concatanation will be stored in a column, C.
Appreciate your help

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.

Is there a way to ignore a column/variable when the whole result set for the applied filter (where) is null?
Not all clients have data for every variable, i.e. some variables are client specific. There are too many variables and clients to amend the select query every time so I just want to ignore a col if its null.
I hope that makes sense (my inability to describe it might explain my inability to find anything related to it!)
The next step would be to run all clients' data in one go using, I believe, a cursor, but one step at a time!

I have a query where one or more of the columns returned is a resultfrom a subquery. These columns get their own alias. I want to filterout the rows containing NULL from the subqueries but it just won'twork. When running columnAlias IS NOT NULL i just get the error"Invalid column name 'columnAlias'.This is the query:SELECT k.UserId, k.Lastname, k.Firstname,(SELECT kscr.answer FROM Results kscr WHERE kscr.UserID =k.UserID) AS myColumnAliasFROM Users kWHERE myColumnAlias IS NOT NULL)When running without the WHERE clause, I get the following results:UserId Lastname Firstname myColumnAlias113 Norman Ola jepps820 Karlsen Kjell830 Pens Jens juubidooWhat I want is to get rid of UserId=820. What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to get the records in table1 not in table2 the query is
Select * from table1 where not exists (select * from table2)
--table1 and table2 ,structure are same
It will get a null result
Strange thing , while I add a where condition in the subquery, it worked.
Select * from table1 where not exists (select * from table2 where table1.ID =table2.ID)
It will get the result as expected.
I just thought it would compare all the fileds for the outer query and inner query, but seems not. Why, I add a condition, it worked ?

This might be a question with an extremely easy answer.. I don't know but here I go.
I want a report with lets say
|A | B | C |
----------------
I can easily figure out the sql statements to find the columns A, B and C individually but how do I combine them?
so lets say I have
select cola as A from table1 where ....
select colb as B from table2...
They are not from the same table so I cannot combine them either (I cannot do select cola, colb from table1 etc.. )
How would I do this? Am I missing something?

I am trying to count the columns of a MDX query but I haven't yet found a solution. Below is the query
SELECT NON EMPTY Hierarchize({DrilldownLevel({[Customer].[Customer].[All]},,,INCLUDE_CALC_MEMBERS)})
ON COLUMNS
FROM [XCUBE] WHERE (
[TIME].[Year Quarter Month].[Quarter Name].&[Quarter 1, 2015],
[CustomerType].[CustomerType].&[Money],
[Measures].[Total X]
)
With result as
All r k l j g l
7000 1 7 8 5 4 3
The All counts the total of the [Measures].[Total X] and I want to measure the number of columns that presented at the result. Unfortunately my dimension Customers doesn't connect with time dimension...

Hi I have a 'settings' table similar to:
* Setting_ID
* SettingGroup
* SettingSubGroup
* SettingKey
* SettingValue
example data:
1, Comms, Com1, Speed, 9600
2, Comms, Com1, Parity, N
3, Comms, Com1, DataBits, 8
4, Comms, Com1, StopBits, 1
5, Comms, Com2, Speed, 2400
6, Comms, Com2, Parity, E
7, Comms, Com2, DataBits, 7
8, Comms, Com2, StopBits, 2
I want to have a query like
SELECT SettingKey, SettingValue FROM Settings WHERE SettingGroup='Comms' GROUP BY SettingSubGroup
where the result set has a single row for each distinct value of SettingGroup. I want the result set to look like:
SettingSubGroup, Speed, Parity, DataBits, StopBits <--column headings
----------------
Com1, 9600, N, 8, 1
Com2, 2400, E, 7, 2
I've had a look at the PIVOT command but it seems to require an aggregate function... is there a way to simply flip from rows to columns?

I have two tables that have no relation. However, both have a column which has a field of nvarchar(50) that I want to retrieve together in one operation and bind to a DropDownList in a sorted fashion. So, what I'm trying to achieve is this:
1. SELECT name FROM table1
2. SELECT name FROM table2
3. Join the two results together and order them alphabetically
4. Return the result set
I'm not sure how to do this or even if it's possible. Ideally I'm hoping it can be done in a stored proc.

I try to search my data and sort the result by importance.
I'm using a MS Access database and my data (table1) looks like this:
Code:
ID NAME TEXT
1 Apples Good red apples
2 Bananas Fine yellow bananas
3 Yellow apples Great yellow apples
I want to search the data and get a result where the column "NAME" is more important than "TEXT". My SQL looks like this:
Code:
SELECT id,name,text,1 AS searchorder FROM table1 WHERE name LIKE '*yellow*'
UNION
SELECT id,name,text,2 AS searchorder FROM table1 WHERE text LIKE '*yellow*'
ORDER BY searchorder
The output is this:
Code:
ID NAME TEXT SEARCHORDER
3 Yellow apples Great yellow apples 1
2 Bananas Fine yellow bananas 2
3 Yellow apples Great yellow apples 2
So far so good - the order by importance works - but I do not get unique columns because of the searchorder column.
Can I fix my SQL so I get unique columns where the last line of "Yellow apples" does not appear or am I lost in space?
Best regards,
Peter from Denmark

Ihave 2 tables...they are basically the same except for the column name in one of them because they deal with 2 different names, though..the data i want is in columns that have the same name.pretty much what i want to do...is .they also need to be distinct so i dont count duplicates...i can get them as separate tables...but i cant get them together..I need them in 1 column because of how it is sent to the C3 code page and how it reads it...the structure has already been previously set..and there are about 5 other statments that are being executed in this one stored procedure like this (also i wasnt the one who set this up).
image 1 is what is currently set up
imgur: the simple image sharer
top part is what is stored in tables..bottom is more of the result
it basically runs this code to get the bottom
DECLARE @id INT;
DECLARE @invest nvarchar(50);
SET @id = '7633';
SET @invest = '';
SELECT 'a' + CONVERT(nvarchar, orderfindings.risk_rating) AS cat, COUNT(DISTINCT orderfindings.prnt_id) AS stat
FROM orderheader, orderaudits, orderfindings
WHERE orderheader.id = orderaudits.orderheader_id AND orderaudits.ID = orderfindings.prnt_id
AND orderheader.id = @id AND orderfindings.risk_rating > 0 AND orderaudits.Investor_Name LIKE '%' + @invest + '%'
GROUP BY orderfindings.risk_rating
If i want agencies instead of findings..just replace it..agencies and findings are the 2 tables..they are the pretty much identical column wise...but i want the result together..i've tried several ways..but i cant seem to get it.
image 2 - the table at the bottom is more what i'm looking for..it combines them both into 1
imgur: the simple image sharer
if an order has a finding or agency or both in it..then it gets marked as a 1 for that risk rating...if it doesnt..then 0 for that risk rating..and then sum them all up to see what i got..
I've been working with it...did this [SQL] compare2 - Pastebin.com ..got it to display 2 columns..but still not the right result...i'm getting a1 = 1...a2 = 1...so its not running through all the orders...or it needs a way to count it...i put a sum at beginning of case statement..erro because of counts...so i took counts out...

Hello
When you set the results from a query to text, very often you end up with a format like:
job_id name
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a way to get rid of the extra space between two columns? Sometimes it's more than the width of my screen between columns
Thanks!

I am trying to produce a query result that will be using a Case statement to determine values based on scores in a table for each row. The result needs to be exported to be used to upload to a state reporting website. My problem is that the state requires in the CSV file that is uploaded a lot of fields that we do not actually have in the database table we are creating the result set from. After I receive my result set using the Case statement, is there a way to add additional columns that don't actually exist in a table so I can export directly from SQL?

Hi, Please tell me that with SQL Reporting there is some way to suppress printing if no data returned? So if did not want reports to print when an order is cancelled you would just make stored proc return nothing in that scenario and nothing would print?
So if the data set doesnt return ny value , then RDL should not print blank page.
Does anybody faced this, any help willbe highly appreciated.
Thanks

I created a package that will, on it's very first step, create a temporary table that will be used throughout the package. In the final step I drop this table.
Running the package bit by bit works, however the moment I attempt to run the full package (or the container that holds the bulk of it) i get a validation error because the table does not exists.
Anyone knows how can I suppress this validation from occurring? I know the table wont exists until the package starts executing and it telling me it cant proceed because the table does not exists is preventing me from doing anything.

If I had a basic table with 3 VARCHAR fields; let's say A, B, C
How could I write a query that returns the count of the number of NULL columns for every record in a table?
Ideally, it would be something like:
SELECT
CAST (A IS NULL) AS INTEGER
+ CAST (B IS NULL) AS INTEGER
+ CAST (C IS NULL) AS INTEGER
FROM MyTable
That doesn't work at all. I can't seem to do "IS NULL" in the SELECT area. Should I write a T-SQL user-defined function that takes all three columns as parameters? Would that be performance friendly for large data sets?
