T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Selecting Latest Record With Info

Aug 27, 2014

I have created the following SQL snippet that is a very simple mock-up illustrating the problem (I hope!) that I am facing:

-- create table
if object_id('tempdb..#tmpdelnotes') is not null
drop table #tmpdelnotes

create table #tmpdelnotes(
DelNote int identity (1,1) ,
DelDate date not null,
Item int not null,
Customer int not null)

[code]...

What I need to retrieve is a unique list of item numbers with information about the latest (DelDate) delivery note. The "Clumsy workaround" works, but is not very pretty when doing multiple table joins. Is it really necessary to use a derived table for this kind of query? Window functions can only exist in the SELECT and ORDER BY clauses, which is understandable since the calculations take place (I would guess) after the aggregations in the HAVING clause.

Can I Get A Comment Or Two On This

Sep 24, 2006

Hey guys,
I have a Access adp that backs onto SQL Server 2005, its taken a while but tis nearly done.

Just one last thing to figure out.. and thats how to send a email. I had a look at all the Access ways and they just wont work out for this.

So I decided to use the server to send them, I would insert/update a row into a table which has a trigger on it.

The table has amoung other things a Approved and Declined column.
Both at 0 Sends an email to an Approver
App 1 Dec 0 Sends on further
and App 0 Dec 1 sends back to the original sender.

All I really want to know is could a trigger execute a package or something that will send the email? (Yes thats right someone isnt asking for code for once:D meh must be winter in hell)

If theres any flaws in my idea please feel free to tell me (Saves me denting the desk with my head half a week and 10 pages of code from now)

And where do I create triggers:P (Will probly have found this one in BOL by the time anyone replys)

Sorry about this but I really have no clue about triggers.. seems the site doesnt like me searching for triggers
'This page was generated in 17.03 seconds.'
:P

Formatting A Subscription Comment

Nov 10, 2006

I have looked everywhere for an answer for this one, so if it's out there and I've missed it, sorry.

I want to include a list of instructions with a report that I am sending out to a list of subscribers (not Data Driven, each is an individual subscription). It seems no matter how I enter the text in the Comments box, the body of the email comes out as a continuous stream of text with no line breaks, which is difficult for the recipients to read.

Is there a way to embed line breaks as a minimum, but preferrably additional formatting, in a subscription comment?

Thanks

Trevor

Comment Syntax Breaks Code

May 26, 2000

inserted a record with an identity field
I had a '-- comment' right
Select @data = @@identity

This select failed - @data was NULL
I changed it to SET @data = @@identity
This also failed @data was null

I then change to the follow which worked - Why would the different form of a
comment make a difference? I was the only one in the database, there were no
other changes. I could make the logic block fail or succed by just changing
the comment syntax.

inserted a record with an identity field
I had a '/** comment**/' right
Select @data = @@identity

Table Design Request For Comment. (Help Please)

Jul 14, 2006

Hi there gurus, can you please add your 2 cents on this design? We'rehaving trouble relating these tables in a diagram because of the keys.Is it necesary to have the references setup? I would assume yes so theforign keys can be setup.If you look at this link, you'll see our diagram. In Red are therelationships that we would like to make for referential integrity, butcannot because of the keys.http://rullo.ca/linktome/QuestionsDB.jpgOur goal in all of this is to have a facility wherin we can store aquestion, that has multiple names over multiple Languages. Forinstance:-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "Do you have a dog in your appartment?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "Do you have a dog in your house?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your appartment?"| LangID = 2(fr)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your house?" |LangID = 2(fr)The difficulty is when we try and put this in the group details table.We don't want to outline the Language, we'd just pass the language intoa proc to retreive a specific group with a specific language. If youfolks would be so kind as to add your comments to the design I would betruely grateful.CREATE TABLE [Question] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[SystemName] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_Question] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionAnswer] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerID] [int] NOT NULL ,[SystemName] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionAnswer] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID],[QuestionAnswerID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionAnswer_Question] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionID]) REFERENCES [Question] ([QuestionID])) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionAnswerName] ([QuestionAnswerID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[LanguageID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionAnswerName] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionAnswerID],[QuestionAnswerNameID],[LanguageID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionGroup] ([QuestionGroupID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionGroup] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionGroupID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionGroupDetails] ([QuestionGroupID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionSortOrder] [int] NULL ,[AnswerSortOrder] [nchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASNULL ,[DisplayLevel] [int] NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionGroupDetails] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionGroupID],[QuestionNameID],[QuestionAnswerNameID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionGroupDetails_QuestionGroup1] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionGroupID]) REFERENCES [QuestionGroup] ([QuestionGroupID])) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionNames] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[LanguageID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Desciption] [nchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,[ControlTypeID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionNames] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID],[QuestionNameID],[LanguageID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionNames_Question] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionID]) REFERENCES [Question] ([QuestionID])) ON [PRIMARY]GO

CR/LF In Comment Field In Emails Sent Using DataDrivenSubscriptions

Mar 15, 2007

I am setting up a data driven subscription to send out an email which includes a report. The Sql for the data driven subscription outputs the EmailTo, Subject, Comment(Body) and some report parameters. My issue is with the Comment (Body) field which I would like to format with CR/LF to make the email body look neat and readable. I've tried many different permutations of inserting the CR/LF, From concatenating Char(13) + Char(10) in which the email does recognize the Cr/LF to concatenating binary 0x0D + 0x0A which after the first concatenation of binary nothing else can be concatenated. Here is the code I've tried:
---~~~~~~~~
declare @iEndDate datetime
set @iEndDate = dbo.fn_today()
Declare @Account_group int
Set @Account_group = 999
/*
DECLARE @mybin1 binary(5), @mybin2 binary(5)
SET @mybin1 = 0x0D
SET @mybin2 = 0x0A
*/
Declare @CrLf VarChar(5)
set @CrLf = CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)
Declare @Str1 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str2 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str3 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str4 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str5 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str6 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str7 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str8 VarChar(255)
Declare @Str9 VarChar(255)
Set @Str1 = 'Good Morning,'
Set @Str2 = 'We are exposed by '
Set @Str3 = 'Attached please find the margin call detail.'
Set @Str4 = 'Please let us know if you have any questions.'
Set @Str5 = 'Thank you.'
Set @Str6 = 'Please respond to:'
Set @Str7 = ''
Set @Str8 = ''
Set @Str9 = ''
declare @t table
(
EmailTo VarChar(255),
ReplyTo VarChar(255),
Subject VarChar(255),
Comment Text,
Account_group Int,
Trading_Account_Id Int,
Broker_Code_Ky VarChar(255),
EndDate Datetime
)
insert into @t
select
EmailTo = '', -- isnull(bf.firm_email,''),
ReplyTo = '',
Subject = 'Margin Call Notice: - ' + Trading_account_name + ' - Exposure: ' + '$' + Convert(varchar(20), convert(Money, Mark_amount),1) ,
Comment = @Str1 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str2 + '$' + Convert(varchar(20), convert(Money, Mark_amount),1) + '.' + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str3 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str4 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str5 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str6 + @CrLf + @Str7+ @CrLf + @Str8 + @CrLf + @Str9,
Account_group = @Account_group,
Trading_Account_Id = trading_account_Id,
Broker_Code_Ky = EGS.Broker_Code_Ky,
EndDate = @iEndDate
from fni_ExposureGovernmentSummary (@iEndDate) EGS
join broker_group bg
on EGS.broker_code_ky = bg.broker_code_ky
Join broker_firm bf
on bg.fbe_firm_id = bf.broker_firm_id
Order by
Broker_Group_Name,
Trading_account_Name
select top 2 * from @t

--~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Email my company is using is Lotus Notes.

The Question is how do I code the the Comment field so that my email will recognize the Cr/LF.

Thanks

Elias

Display No Comment In The Text If There Is No Data

Oct 3, 2007



Hi all,

I have a report where I have to display State, Category Name and the text. Below is the sample report


State Category Name Text


TX Unanticipated High NT due to RADD clean up- drive replacement.

NJ Unanticipated SAR efforts (SEM configuration)


But now my question is if there is no comment in any other state I would like to show no comment in the text line. Is there any formula I can use in the report level that will take care of the issue. I know in Business object there is a formula you can create which is =If (IsNull([Text]);"No Comments Reported";[Text]). I need to know in ssrs there is something.

please let me know ASAP and the steps of doing that.

Thanks

Apostrophe In Comment Confuses ADODB

Jun 5, 2007

We just encountered an odd failure in ADODB. If it gets an SQL query with a comment embedded in it, and the comment has an apostrophe as one of the characters, ADODB gets confused as it tries to plug in parameters for placeholders later in the query. For example:





SELECT id, name

FROM doc_type /* this won't work! */

WHERE name LIKE ?

If you take out the apostrophe ("this will not work!") or move the comment to follow the placeholder, the query works.

Is this a known bug (couldn't find it in the KB)?

Thanks,
Bob Kline

Musing About Dataset And Database Schema Synchronization, Please Comment....

Mar 8, 2008

All- I'm a newbie working on a VWD project. A couple questions arose when attempting to work with a project's dataset and its underlying SQL Server Express database: 


Is it true that when changing the schema of a database in SQL Server Express through the VWD Database Explorer, one must take care to manually make parallel changes in the dataset? For example, if you make a relation between two tables in Database Explorer, you must do the same with the counterpart tables in the dataset? For example, I find that if I delete or create a relationship between two tables in the database, I must manually do the same in the dataset.

Profiler Does Not Comment Out Security Related Commands When There Is An Error In The Batch

Aug 1, 2006

i am testing some encryption
scenarios ,in profiler the statements like "OPEN KEY" and all "Encrypt"
and "Decrypt" functions are removed automaticly from the trace
and replaced with a comment ,create a trace and try the code i attached ,
you will see in profiler trace that that all encryption related commands
are commented out ,this is what expected.

but now go to the batch and comment out the "SELECT @rrr' statment,
and run the batch ,this batch will fail beacuse "@rrr" is not declared,
now go back to profiler and you will see that for the failed batch
all the encryption command are NOT COMMENTED OUT !!!
esspecially important is the visibility of the password of the open key command.


seems like a very dangerous bug to me!!!

CREATE CERTIFICATE test1
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'pGFD4bb925DGvbd2439587y'
WITH SUBJECT = 'Sammamish Shipping Records',
EXPIRY_DATE = '10/31/2009';

CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY Key09 WITH ALGORITHM = TRIPLE_DES

SQL Server 2012 :: Replication - Missing Stored Procedure Comment Header

Jul 25, 2013

I have recently started using replication in SQL 2012 SP1. When a stored procedure is altered on the source, the changes are replicated to the subscribers; however, the comment headers are removed at the subscribers. Due to the vast number of stored procedures I have, I do not want to move the comments below the Create Procedure statement. Are there any other ways to have comment header move with the stored procedures?

Here is what I am experiencing

Source SP

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SPTest]
AS
BEGIN
SELECT GETDATE()
END

Destination SP

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SPTest]
AS
BEGIN
SELECT GETDATE()

SSIS Design Question - New To SSIS, Please Comment! :)

Feb 20, 2008

Hello everyone!!

I am completely new to SSIS and have been given a large project (of course with a tight deadline) that has the absolute requirement of using SSIS. I am/was very, very good with DTS and could easily accomplish what I need to do with an ActiveX script task in DTS in no time, but as this is new development, we are not to use ActiveX script tasks within SSIS since it will not be supported in the next SQL Server release. I'm thinking script task, but please give some comments on how you would accomplish the following in SSIS (please remember I'm new to SSIS, so don't assume I know anything. )

I must accomplish this: in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and we have X amount of regions. (Pseudo code followed by standard explanation)

Select a max value from region lookup table in SQL (this is the # of regions)

for N=1 to MyMaxValue

select states from region lookup table where region code = N (the current region we are on)
'this returns a list of states in a region, need these in array or recordset object or something
Open an output file which will be a tab delimited text file we will write results below in loop to (in DTS I would programatically kick off a transformation task in the package)
'loop thru states returned, so if in a rs object...
do while not rs.eof

execute customer stored procedure, passing as a variable the current state we are on
'this will return all customers within a state, this whole result set (approx 1 million) needs to go to the tab delimited file
'I have to execute this stored procedure for each state & then write results to the SAME file, until we are onto a different region

rs.movenext
close file
loop
next

OK, so basically, as you can see, Its sort of simple in a way what I need to do, i just have no idea how to go about doing this in SSIS. I can not hard code any state or region values. I MUST read them in from the lookup tables as region codes are constanatly changing and we are constantly adding in new states and new regions, so with above coding idea, it would always dynamically pick up any new states, new regions or changes.

So in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and there are X amount of regions. Pretty strait forward, huh? The requirements are strait forward, but SSIS is throwing me for a loop... it does not seem flexible enough to be as dynamic as I need it to be to do this. I'm sure it is, just my understanding of it is very basic so far.

Please provide your suggestions! I think a lot of newbies would benefit from some SSIS design info... how to do common things in SSIS, but beyond just retrieving a recordset and writing it to a file... what do you do when you need to add just a few layers of decision processing, and retriving recordsets and writing files based on that decision processing?????

THANK YOU!!!!!!
Kathy

Help With Finding Out Latest Changes

Apr 8, 2008

So here is my dilemma:

We have licensed software from a 3rd party and we do not have the source code, nor can we do anything to change the database schema, write our own procs, triggers, etc.

With that said, we want to know which records in certain tables have been added or modified since a certain time (for example, in the past 24 hours). However, none of the tables has any datetime or timestamp columns on them for create date, update date, etc.

I tried to look into hacking thru DBCC log (dbname, 2) to see if that would help, what a mess. Using a tool like that from Luminent or Red Gate doesnt help either, because long term this needs to be automated if possible. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this, or is the answer simply, "Sorry mate, you need to get them to allow you to change the database to add new columns and/or triggers". :)

SQL To Get Latest Result From Each ID

Feb 6, 2008

Hi,

this will be my first post to sqlteam.com.
I've been trying to work out this problem for awhile, and figured I really need help. I have a set of data that shows the results of a number of tests that I have been doing on a software. Each test I have done records the test_ID, test_Result, and the date_Tested. An example of the columns would be like this:

test_ID | test_Result | date_Tested
3112 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230
3112 | FAIL | 2007-02-22 09:22:00.230
3112 | FAIL | 2007-01-21 09:21:40.234
3113 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230
3114 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230
3115 | FAIL | 2008-01-23 09:29:40.230
3115 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230
3116 | FAIL | 2007-12-25 09:29:40.230
3116 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230

Now what I want is ONLY the latest result for each test_ID, I do not want repeated test_IDs to show up. So my expected result should be:

test_ID | test_Result | date_Tested
3112 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230
3113 | PASS | 2007-11-23 09:29:40.230

Is there a way I can query this? I've tried using "distinct test_ID" but it would still show the repeated test_ID due to the date_Tested not being the same.. also Group By will not work. I'm not sure what to do here. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance.
