T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Rows Into Columns - Remove Duplicates And Variable Rows
Aug 5, 2014
I managed to transpose rows into columns.
;WITH
ctePreAgg AS
(
select top 500 act_reference "ActivityRef",
row_number() over (partition by act_reference order by act_reference) as rowno,
t3.s_initials "Initials"
from mytablestuff
order by act_reference
[code]...
But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view
I have a table with 22 million Business records. I can see that there are duplicates when I group by BusinessName and Address and Phone. I'd like to place only the duplicates into a table, with a ranking, oldest business key gets a ranking of 1.
As a bonus I'd like each group to have a distinct group name (although not necessary, just want to know how to do this)
Later after I run more verifications to make sure these are not referenced elsewhere I'll delete everything with a matchRank > 1 out of the main Business table.
DROP TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness]; GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness]( [Business_pk] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [BusinessName] VARCHAR (200) NOT NULL, [Address] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
I work with SQLite and need to write a query the old school way to convert rows to columns. If it was MS SQL I would use pivot to get the expected result. However this is SQLite I cannot use pivot.
Sample data:
create table t1 (id int, Dept char (1), Total int); insert t1 select 1, 'A', 100 union select 2, 'B', 120 union select 3, 'C', 140 union select 4, 'D', 150;
How do I use LEFT OUTER JOIN to produce result similar to the below?
I am fairly new to SQL and writing queries so bear with my faults. I am learning on the job, which is good and bad. Below is a query that I have written to obtain some information. The problem arises when we have a patient who goes from Patient Type '1' to Patient Type '2'. This needs to be considered a singular visit and the only way I can think that this may work is if: for any specific medical record a dsch_ts is equal to the Admit TS on the next row.
How to complete something like this and my google searches have been fruitless. I attached a spreadsheet with an example of what I am getting.
SELECT DISTINCT TPM300_PAT_VISIT.med_rec_no, TSM040_PERSON_HDR.lst_nm AS 'Last Name', TSM040_PERSON_HDR.fst_nm AS 'First Name',
<DetailRows> <DetailRow> <MonthNumber></MonthNumber> <Amount></Amount> </DetailRow> </DetailRows>If my variable contains following xml document as un-typed xml
[Code] ....
However, if I use a typed xml variable that is based on above schema, I cannot use OPENXML. What is the correct way of achieving same result with a typed xml doc? I am using SS2K5.
I have 5 columns in my database. 1 column is coming like a dynamic.
I want to convert records from rows to columns. Currently I have a data like this.
Race AgeRange Amount
W 17-20 500 W 21-30 400 W 31-40 200 A 17-20 100 H 41-50 250 H 51-60 290
So age range is not fixed and it can be any and I have one separate relational table for age range where it's coming from. Now I want to convert it into columns like
SELECT 'Type'[Type] ,CASE WHEN code='09' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='10' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='11' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='12' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END FROM Table1 WHERE (Code BETWEEN '09' AND '12') GROUP BY Code
and the output
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4 Type 14022731.60 0.00 0.00 0.00 Type 0.00 4749072.19 0.00 0.00 Type 0.00 0.00 149214.04 0.00 Type 0.00 0.00 0.00 792210.10
How can I modify the query to come up with output below,
I have a bunch of contacts that I've scored how well their names match to other contacts in the same business. I can programmatically figure out how to parse the results, but would like to know how to do this via SQL. My problem is for Business_fk 968976 I have 7 contacts. In the end I should have 4 contacts based on name match. For the business key listed Gerardo Lopez is in the ContactScore table twice for Contact keys 7355719 and 57028145. I then have two rows like so:
Each reference each other, and 2 is a good case, a more difficult case would have key 1 listed 10 times showing a ContactMatch_fk of 2 - 11, and then Contact_fk 2 listed 10 times with a ContactMatch_fk of 1, 3-11.I know 57028145 maps to 7355719 from the first row in the ContactScore table, so when Contact_fk of 7355719 comes up I should be able to skip it and not process that match. Hopefully that makes sense. Anyway here is the test data:
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[ContactScore]') AND type in (N'U')) DROP TABLE [dbo].[ContactScore]; GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ContactScore] ( [ContactScore_pk]INT NOT NULL, [Contact_fk]INT NOT NULL,
JobRequirements (A) JobID int QualificationTypeID int
EmployeeQualifications (B) EmployeeID int QualificationTypeID int
Employee (C) EmployeeID int EmployeeName int
I need to return a list of all employees fit for a specific job ... The criteria is that only employees who have all the JobRequirements are returned. So if a job had 3 requirements and the employee had just 2 of those qualifications, they would not be returned. Likewise, the employee might have more qualifications than the job requires, but unless the employee has all the specific qualifications the job requires they are not included. If an employee has all the job qualifications plus they have extra qualifications then they should be returned...
How to only return those records where all the child records are present in the other table..
I have a conditional split in an SSIS package - one split is where if rows are returned according to a specific rule, then insert those rows into to a Recordset Destinationm which points to a variable of Object type.
How I can use this variable to email fellow users. For example, what I would like is if ANY rows are returned to the Object variable (1 or more), then I would like to execute an email SP that we have on our server.
I have a dataset with 2 columns, a rownumber and a servername - eg
rownumber servername
1 server1
2 server2
....
15 server15
I want to display the servernames in a report so that you get 3 columns - eg
server1 | server2 | server3
server4 | server5 | server6
...
server13 | server14 | server15
I have tried using multiple tables and lists and filtering the data on each one but this then makes formating very hard - i either end up with a huge gap between columns or the columns overlap
I have also tried using a matrix control but cant find a way to do this.
Does anybody know an easy way to do this? The data comes from sql 2005 so i can use a pivot clause on the dataset if somebody knows a way to do it this way. The reporting service is also RS2005
Hello, I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row: user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3 For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer): user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3 How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row Thanx,Danny.
Within the LinkingID, there are duplicates in ID1 and ID2 but just in opposite columns. I have been trying to figure out a way to remove these set based. It doesn't matter which duplicate is removed. Essentially these are just endpoints and I don't care which side they are on. The solution must recognize the duplicates and not just remove based on every 2nd row.
I have a common requirement in numerous SSIS processes to take my main input data set and to remove all rows from it that match a second input data set on a given key and output this as the main output. I also want to output (as a second output) all the rows from the main input data set that did match on the given key. However, I don't want to merge in data from the second input, nor am I interested in rows from the second input data set that have no match in the main input.
E.g. If I have the following data:
Main input: Key Name --- ---- 1 Steve 2 Jamie 3 Donald
Auto_ID Account_ID Account_Name Account_Contact Priority 1 3453463 Tire Co Doug 1 2 4363763 Computers Inc Sam 1 3 7857433 Safety First Heather 1 4 2326743 Car Dept Clark 1 5 2342567 Sales Force Amy 1 6 4363763 Computers Inc Jamie 2 7 2326743 Car Dept Jenn 2
I'm trying to delete all duplicate Account_IDs, but only for the highest priority (in this case it would be the lowest number).
I know the following would delete duplicate Account_IDs:
DELETE FROM staging_account WHERE auto_id NOT IN (SELECT MAX(auto_id) FROM staging_account GROUP BY account_id)
The problem is this doesn't take into account the priority; in the above example I would want to keep auto_ids 2 and 4 because they have a higher priority (1) than auto_ids 6 and 7 (priority 2).
How can I take priority into account and still remove duplicates in this scenario?
I have a report which is a list of items and I display everything about the item. It is great. My report table in the layout tab is simple. Header,Detail,Footer. Each Item has 65 columns. The number of items (rows) vary upon what you want to see. Example data. Item#, Description, CaseSalePrice, Cost, BottleSalePrice, Discount 123, Grenadine, 100.00, 75.00, 15.50, 2.00 456, Lime Juice, 120.00, 81.00, 17.25, 2.00
What I am actually doing is running this the top example and saving to excel. Then copying the sheet. Creating a new sheet then doing a paste special transpose and this gives the users what they want to see.
I want to grab that table object in the report layout tab and twist it 90degrees so the header is on the left, detail is in the middle and the footer is on the right. It would be perfect.
The dynamic column need is really the problem here. I never know how many items will be in the report. They all have the same basic information like description and pricing.
I am all out of creative ideas, any help would be appreciated.
How do I only select rows with duplicate dates for each person (id)? (The actual table has approximately 13000 rows with approximately 3000 unique ids)
I have a table employee_test having the sample data. The rows with EmployeeID=6 are duplicate rows. I want to delete the duplicates retaining one row for the employeeid=6. Note :- I don't want to use a temporary table. I want to do this using a single query or at the most in a SP query batch. Please advise.
I have a report that is built using the report builder and the report model that was created. With the fields that are displayed in the report, it could be possible for the database to have multiple rows with the same values for all the fields (that are displayed in the report). The PK will be different, but this is not displayed in the report as the PK won't make sense in the report. So what happens is that the report displays just 1 record even though the database has multiple records because all the fields (that are displayed in the report) are identical. Is there a way to make the report display all the rows irrespective of duplicates?
I have an existing stored table with duplicate rows that I want to delete.Using a cte gives me
WITH CTE AS ( SELECT rn = ROW_NUMBER() OVER( PARTITION BY employeeid, dateofincident, typeid, description ORDER BY Id ASC), * FROM dbo.TableName ) DELETE FROM cte WHERE rn > 1
This is what I want to do basically. But this is only deleting in my CTE, is there anyway I can update my existing table "TableName" with this, without using temp tables?
My input table consist of ONLY TWO columns. And this is my table (INPUT TABLE) Time Action 17:42 SELL 17:43 BUY 17:44 SELL 17:45 SELL 17:46 SELL 17:47 BUY 17:48 BUY 17:49 SELL 17:50 SELL
When ever ACTION columns data is repeating remove that repetitive data rows.
(i mean to say Bold characters rows want to remove)
Hi everyone.How can I get the unique row from a table which contains multiple rowsthat have exactly the same values.example:create table test (c1 as smallint,c2 as smallint,c3 as smallint )insert into test values (1,2,3)insert into test values (1,2,3)i want to remove whichever of the rows but I want to retain a singlerow.TIADiego
I've got the following table data:116525.99116520.14129965.03129960.12129967.00And I need to write a query to return only rows 2 and 4, since theremaining rows have duplicate IDs. I've tried the Group By, but amhaving no luck.Thanks!
Ok, so I've been racking my brains on this one for a while now and figured it was time to ask for some help...
I have a table named tblAppInfo that looks something like this:
Code Block user_name app_name app_ver
User1 MS Word 2000 User2 MS Word 2000 User3 MS Excel 2000 User4 MS Excel 2000 User5 MS Excel 2000 User6 MS Excel 2000 User7 MS Outlook 2000 User8 MS PowerPoint 2000 User9 Adobe Acrobat 5.0 User10 Adobe Acrobat 6.0 User11 Adobe Acrobat 7.0
What I want to do is remove any rows that repeat the app_name and app_ver more than twice. Basically in the example above, it would remove the lines that have MS Excel 2000 (as it's listed 4 times). MS Word 2000 would stay as it's only listed twice. As would Outlook and PowerPoint. All 3 Adobe's would also stay as their versions are different.
I've tried the following but it still repeats applications that occur more than twice:
Code BlockSELECT user_name, app_name, app_ver FROM tblAppInfo GROUP BY app_name, app_ver, user_name having count(distinct app_name + app_ver + tblAppInfo.host_name) < 3 ORDER BY app_name, app_ver
I've also tried using nested select statements and everything else in my arsenal to no avail. I hope someone here will be able to help me out as I'm afraid I'll go bald if I try anymore!
I have a table with one column, and i want to remove those records from the table which are duplicate i meant if i have a records rakesh in table two time then one records should be remove... my tables is like that
