Trying to use LIKE / NOT LIKE to identify values that contain any alphanumeric characters outside of A-Z e.g £%$^&*_-{[@ etc etc
The field should contain only values between A-G with a numberic e.g ABCD1234567... but some rows have characters such as above, some have spaces (weeps) , and some have letters outside the A-G range ....
I am new to SSC . I have a table that has NO.OF WORKING HOURS for 30 days. I am trying to convert all the values into INT as MINS to generate a SSRS report.
Note: There are some records with negative value (-4h15m)
Sample
NAME D1 D2 D3 ....D31
X1 9H 30M NULL 10M
X2 0M 1H 30M -4H45M
X3 20M -1H NULL
I have a column called firstname ..in that it stores value like this
john smith
andrew jr
jim sr
andrew bar
tina *^
don $%
I need to retrieve all those rows where name consists of non alphabets...for example 5 and 6 has non alphabets..
I am using PATINDEX('%[^a-z]%',Firstname) function but if it finds space between names it is considering as error..I would like to find only non alphabets in name ..space is fine..is there any function to find out?
Hi,
I am using SQL Server 2000. In database i am having one column named Address which contains full address of the customer. While searching i want to ignore starting numeric or alphanumeric values. Kinly guide how I can ignore numeric or alphanumeric values while searching the data.
Is it possible to write a sql statement to skip aplpha numeric values? I got a field containing these values; 20, 70, 150, 140, 100, KORT, 90, 180, 160. And I'm trying to check if any value is bigger than 175 (@Limit), but I want to skip the value 'KORT'. So is it possible to check if a value is numeric or not? ISNULL( CONVERT(int, ProductVariant.Size), 0) > @Limit Regards, Sigurd

I want to search for alphanumeric values between an upper and lower bound in a sql database.For example: search for a serial number like pvf-456-3b. Upper bound is q, lower bound is g.I should then get every serial number starting with g - q.If possible the bounds should be more specific like "search for serial number between gt2 and qy"Can anybody help me out?
Hi All ,
I am having a table which contain data in below form
id startvalue endvalue
1 12:00a 12:29a
2 12:30a 12:59a
3 1:00a 1:29a
4 1:00p 1:29p
5 2:00a 2:29a
Through SQL query I want to select the id column value for the row returned for the following query
select id from mytable where '1:24a' >= startvalue and '1:24a' <= endvalue
Idea is I will pass a literal value that lies between the startvalue (nvarchar column) and endvalue (nvarchar column) to fetch the id of the row returned, which should be 3 But when I run the query it returns me 2 rows for id 3 and 4.
I believe this is because I am trying to compare nvarchar columns with ">=" and "<=" operators.
Can anyone suggest how i can select the correct value or how to do this.
Thanks,
Ashish
For a new project. I need to create random alphanumeric characters as primary key values when inserting a record.
eg: cmSbXsFE3l8
It can start from 4 digit characters and can grow to 6, 7 as required
The database will involve more than 10000 concurrent users.
I don't want to use guid or auto increment integer or sequence.
I have written a simple routine to do some address checking between sources. The business owner wanted the check done to the address as a whole and to report the address' that did not return a match. The comparison works perfectly fine.
Well, now the customer has come back wanting to know what element(s) of the address make the match fail
Here's the basic address compare:
SELECT *
FROM Full_Address_Map fam
WHERE fam.StreetName + ' ' + fam.RoadType + ' ' + fam.CityName + ' ' + fam.StateName + ' ' + fam.Country COLLATE Cyrillic_General_CI_AI NOT IN
(
SELECT s.base_name + ' ' + s.road_type + ' ' + p.name + ' ' + v.name + ' ' + v.country_name COLLATE Cyrillic_General_CI_AI
[Code] ....
You can see that we are building the address by sticking the 5 columns together with a space in between to create a single string. We are then doing the same thing with the other source data and simply comparing the string. This worked perfectly and was nice and simple... until the customer decided he wanted to see the element(s) causing the issue.
For example, let's say there is an address of '123 Main ST Dallas Texas United States' in one source, but it's '123 Main Dallas Texas United States' in the other. The customer wants to know that it is the road type (ST) that caused the mismatch.
Now, I wrote a bunch of queries to try and single out each element in order to determine if it is the one causing the issue or not. It seems to work partially, but I don't believe it is the best approach and it doesn't work if more than one column is the culprit.
I am looking to create a script that will go through a table a pick out the necessary columns to create a unique record. Some of the tables that I am working with have 200 plus columns and I am not sure if I would have to list every column name in the script or if they could be dynamically referenced. I am working with a SQL server that has little next to no documentation and everytime I type to mere some tables, I get too many rows back.

I have the SQL query. If the user is selecting all the vendor Numbers available in the vendor number parameter drop down then, I will not include the vendor Number condition in the where portion of the sql query.

How to count the number of values that exist in a row based on the values from an array of numbers. Basically the the array of numbers I want to look for are in row 1 of table [test 1] and I want to search for them and count the "out of" in table [test 2]. Excuse me for not using the easiest way to convey my question below. I guess in short I have 10 numbers and like to find how many of those numbers exist in each row. short example:
Table Name: test1
Columns: m1 (int), m2 (int), m3 (int) >>> etc
Array/Row1: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
------
Table Name: test2
Columns: n1 (int), n2 (int), n3 (int), n4 (int), n5 (int)
Row 1: 3, 8, 18, 77, 12
Row 2: 1, 4, 5, 7,18, 21
Row 3: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10

I have a script that I use after some amount of data massaging (not shown). I would like to be able to change the
1) denominator value (the value 8 in line 32 of my code) based on how many columns are selected by the where clause:
where left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = 1where capNumber is a value like [1_1], [1_4], [1_6]...[1_9] capNumber can be any values from [1_1]...[14_10] depending upon the specialty value (example: Allergy) and the final number after the equal sign is a number from 1 to 14)
2) I'd like to dynamically determine the series depending upon which values correspond to the specialty and run for each where: left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = n. n is a number between 1 and 14.
3) finally I'd like to dynamically determine the columns in line 31 (4th line from the bottom)
If I do it by hand it's 23 * 14 separate runs to get separate results for each CapNumber series within specialty. The capNumber series is like [1_1], [1_2], [1_3],[1_4], [1_5], [1_6], [1_7], [1_8],[1_9]
...
[8_4],[8_7]
...
[14_1], [14_2],...[14_10]
etc.
Again, the series are usually discontinuous and specific to each specialty.
Here's the portion of the script (it's at the end) that I'm talking about:
--change values in square brackets below for each specialty as needed and change the denom number in the very last query.
if object_id('tempdb..#tempAllergy') is not null
drop table #tempAllergy
select *
into #tempAllergy
from
dbo.#temp2 T

If I were to do it manually I'd uncomment each series line in turn and comment the one I just ran.

I have 2 identical tables one contains current settings, the other contains all historical settings.I could create a union view to display the current values from table A and all historical values from table B, butthat would also require a Variable to hold the tblid for both select statements.
Q. Can this be done with one joined or conditional select statement?
DECLARE @tblid int = 501
SELECT 1,2,3,4,'CurrentSetting'
FROM TableA ta
WHERE tblid = @tblid
UNION
SELECT 1,2,3,4,'PreviosSetting'
FROM Tableb tb
WHERE tblid = @tblid
I have a problem with trying to pull postcodes from a table when I have a lookup table which provides me with a StartPostCode and an EndPostCode.
For instance if, in the input table I have a postcode BETWEEN two values eg: CV1 and CV10 I want to get a third value from the look up table.My problem is my query seems to bring two values back even if the postcode is between the ranges specified.To reproduce the problem first create the tables and populate with the data.

table2 is intially populated (basically this will serve as historical table for view); temptable and table2 will are similar except that table2 has two extra columns which are insertdt and updatedt
process:
1. get data from an existing view and insert in temptable
2. truncate/delete contents of table1
3. insert data in table1 by comparing temptable vs table2 (values that exists in temptable but not in table2 will be inserted)
4. insert data in table2 which are not yet present (comparing ID in t2 and temptable)
5. UPDATE table2 whose field/column VALUE is not equal with temptable. (meaning UNMATCHED VALUE)
* for #5 if a value from table2 (historical table) has changed compared to temptable (new result of view) this must be updated as well as the updateddt field value.
I have two select statements; one for open purchase orders, one for open customer orders. I would like to be able to combine the query based on i.item in the top statement joined with c.item from the bottom statement. The i.item is related to a specific c.item, but they do not have the same values. In this case I want to join based on.
p.item=i.item where
1001099548=1001099550
84162359=84198545

Here are my statements.

I am working on some data that is JOINing to another table. Not a big thing. In the child table, there are different values for a single ID. I want to be able to select the Max ColorID that is Not Null, for each distinct CarID. The CarID is what I am joining the other table with. I need selecting the distinct row with the Max ColorID that is not Null. All this data is made up, so nothing looks logical in the design.
DECLARE @ColorList TABLE

13null 22
2102/25/15 1:0015
22null 30
23null 45

I would like to set the start time of the next row to be equal to the previous row time + duration. I know the start time of each group of 'Items' when the 'Sequence' number = 1. The last 'duration' value in the group would be ignored.
My expected output would be:
ItemSequenceStartTimeDuration

I am currently reading through Itzik Ben-Gan's "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 High-Performance T-SQL using Windows Functions." In attempt to test the SUM OVER() function in SQL 2008 because that's what I've got. I do not currently have sample data (trying to generate it has become a major PITA), but I have some pseudocode.
My current code (actual production code) pulls a bunch of ITD (inception to date) contracts then calculates a certain dollar amount based on monthly changes. Not all contracts have values during a given month, so here's what I cobbled together a few months ago. (Per our finance team, these numbers ARE accurate).
WITH MonthlyVals AS
(SELECT ContractID, SUM(Col1 - (Col2 + Col3 + Col4 + Col5)) AS MyTotal
FROM MyTable
WHERE MyDate >= @ThisMonthStartDate AND MyDate <= @ThisMonthEndDate
AND StatementType IN (8,4,2)
[code]....
To test the totals, I also added a COMPUTE SUM(MyTotal) to the end of each query. (Yes, I know COMPUTE is deprecated. Just wanted a quick check.). The difference between the two bits of code was over 68k, with the SUM OVER() code coming up with a total higher than the CTE code. I know CTE code is correct for a fact. It went through extensive testing before getting put in Production. Is it the way I joined the table for the SUM OVER()? Or is it the use of PARITION BY?
I have event table that containing multiple events, and many of them are empty. I'd like to select only the columns that have values in them.

Category varchar(250),
events1 varchar(250),
[Code] .....
In this case, I'd like to run a query like this one(skip Column Event3):
Select eventId,Category,events1,events2,events4,events5 From #events

I have a column containing values for different languages. I want to cut out the values per languate in a seperat column.
The syntax is a 2 letter country code followed by : the value is contained in double quotes. each languate is separated by a ; (except for the last one)
EX ur English, Dutch and Swedish:US:"Project/Prescription sale";NL:"Project/specificatie";SW:"Objektsförsäljning"
The result would Be
column header US
with value Project/Prescription sale
next column header NL
with value Project/specificatie etc.

How to resolve the below task
create table #temp ( idx int identity(1,1), col1 int, col2 int )
Here i want a flag success or fail on basis of below conditions.
I need to take all the col1 values and then i need to compare to each other.
if any difference found, i need to check difference more than 30, then it should raise the flag as "Failure".
if all the col1 values are ok , then we need to check Col2 values same as above.
--case 1
insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16582,18522
--select * from #temp
--truncate table #temp
Because of difference in col1 values . the value of flag should be fail.
--case 2
insert into #temp(col1,col2)
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,18522
union all
select 16522,17522
Here also the col1 is ok but col2 values have difference so it should be Fail.
Otherwise it should be success.
