I want the top 1, having the highest counter from each ID. This is a highly simplified version of that I am pulling which also is between a date range, but same principle.
IE: SELECT * FROM Table WHERE ID in (SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM Table WHERE Date BETWEEN <date> AND <date>
I'd rather keep it in one statement if possible, but if I have to do it in multiple passes then so be it.
I am facing a problem in writing the stored procedure for multiple search criteria.
I am trying to write the query in the Procedure as follows
Select * from Car where Price=@Price1 or Price=@price2 or Price=@price=3 and where Manufacture=@Manufacture1 or Manufacture=@Manufacture2 or Manufacture=@Manufacture3 and where Model=@Model1 or Model=@Model2 or Model=@Model3 and where City=@City1 or City=@City2 or City=@City3
I am Not sure of the query but am trying to get the list of cars that are to be filtered based on the user input.
I have found a lot of examples of problems where I have just a single date column, and then I find the gaps in between that, but I'm having difficulty finding examples where it works with start and end date columns...
I understand how to find (generate) missing dates for the year 2006 if I have a range value like 1-1-2006 to 3-1-2006. (I'm just using 2006 for arguements sake - the needed approach starts back in 2004 or so and will extend to the current day)
Now the question that presents itself is, is there an elegant way to do this same process with an arbitrary number of date ranges per customer? There would be 1 record per range, per customer
What I'd like to generate is a record per missing date in 2006, which would be: 4 records for 1-1-2006 to 1-4-2006 several records for 2-1-2006 to 10-31-2006 and then more for 11-18-2006 to 12-14-2006
As I said before, the number of ranges isn't static. It could be 1 or a dozen and could increase as time goes on. At this time, all I can see to potentially make it work in query is to do a dozen joins - which kind of sucks.
My other thought is to do specific processing per customer, per range gap, but it will be terribly slow.
The situation is that we have resources (trucks) that perform shifts. Shifts consists of actions. A resource can perform multiple shifts.
For every resource we want to find the record that:
- Is 'younger' than the last realized action.
- Has actionkind pickup, deliver or clean
I have constructed a solution with CTE and row_number but I was curious if there would be other alternatives. The fact that I'm joining a CTE onto itself and subject the outcome to a partition makes me think there are sharper ways.
Note that the action id in the data below is also sorted but in practice this need not be the case. The sorting key is prevalent.
I'm trying to run this code, which worked on SQL 2000, on 2K8:
SELECT [Business Unit] ,[Department] ,[Ext :] ,[F9] ,[First Name :] ,[Last Name :] ,[Mobex :] ,[Mobile :] ,[Sub Department] FROM MyCompanyStaffPhoneList...Sheet1$
However it just returns this message..Msg 7308, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' cannot be used for distributed queries because the provider is configured to run in single-threaded apartment mode.
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.
Hey all,I am having some serious trouble getting the correct syntax for a select statement to work the way I need it, any help I could get on this would be greatly appreciated.I have a table called Units which stores computers and a table called Software which stores software. I have a bit field in Units called OEM, when this is set to true I don't want the select statement to pull this unit down when I am assigning software to other units.Here is my select statement: SELECT Software.SID, Software.SN, Software.Name, Users.First + ' ' + Users.Last AS 'Assigned User', Units.Make + '-' + Units.Model AS 'Assigned Unit' FROM dbo.Software LEFT JOIN dbo.Units ON Software.SN = Units.SN LEFT JOIN dbo.Users ON Units.UID = Users.UID WHERE (Units.OEM = 'FALSE') AND (Software.SN LIKE '%' + @SearchString + '%')Everything works as expected, unless of course the unit has no software assigned to it yet, it won't return it because its not tied to a Units.OEM field. Is there anyway to have it return ALL records that even arn't joined OR are joined but have OEM set to false?Thanks, let me know if I need to clear anything up.-Matthew
What I am trying to do: Obtain attendance percentages for schools for the last five days. The outcome would look like this:
DISTRICTGROUPING, SCHOOLNAME, 5 DAYS AGO PCTG, 4 DAYS AGO PCTG, 3 DAYS AGO PCTG, 2 DAYS AGO PCTG, 1 DAY AGO PCTG I am using nested subqueries for each day as follows: (total enrollment-total absent/total enrollment) ,( ((SELECTCOUNT(*)--GET TOTAL ENROLLMENT COUNT FOR SPECIFIED DATE
[Code]....
The query works with the following exceptions:
My issues are:
1. Avoid the "division by zero" error. This can occur if a school is closed for a day or if a smaller school has no absences for a day.
2. Avoid weekend dates. I need the query to display only weekdays
3. Currently I am using "PERCENTAGE 5: as a column header whereas I need the actual date as the header.

To find continuous date, you look at the beginning date in row 1 and end date in row 2, then if no break in dates, row 2 beginning date to row 3 end date, if no break continue until last date There could multiple dates up to 12 which I have to check for "no break" in dates, if break, display beginning date of last continuous date.
What I need is the start and end time of each task, but the issue is there is no unique task number to bind them together.. So for instance the task starts with 'Open-Submitted' and ends with 'Task Approved'. The issue is there can be multiple occurrences in the same file number. I need to be able to split these into multiple tasks with the associated start and stop times.

Hi there,I'm new to sql and thus I'm having problems with a specific query which Ihope you guys can help me with.Basicly I have a few tables which I'm trying to do a query on:Table groups contains information about specific groups e.g. "Windows" or"Unix".Table users contains information about specific users e.g. "a", "b" or "c".Table users_groups contain information about group relationship (a user canbe in multiple groups) e.g. (a, Windows), (b, Unix), (a, Unix).In this case user c is ungrouped.Now I'd like to find the users which does belong to group Windows and thosewho do not:select distinct username from users_groups where groupname = "Windows" orderby username asc;This works pretty well for finding users in the specific group. In this casethe result is a.However I'd like to get the opposite result (b and c) but I'm stuck.The problem is that I'd like a list of all users excluding those which arein "Windows"Here is a partial query:select distinct users.username from users left join users_groups onusers.username = users_groups.username where users_groups.username is nullorder by users.username asc;This only gives me those users who are not grouped at all. This mean thatuser b is not in those results.Please advise.Thanks in advance.-- Henrik
I have a sql select query that I'm pulling from a "Years" table to link to 3 columns in an Items table.ZCValuesYear table has two colums: YearID and YearYearID Year1 20042 20053 20064 20075 2008...I want to bind the "Year" value to the three colums in the ZCItem table: ItemUseFirstYearID ItemUseLastYearID ItemYearIDThe query below will pull all the "ID's" for each of the colums, but how would I make it pull the "Year" value (instead of record 4, it would pull 2007 instead)?<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sqlItemSelect" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:MyConnString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT ZCPartVault.PartVaultID, ZCPartVault.PartVaultItemID, ZCValuesYear.Year, ZCItem.ItemName, ZCItem.ItemUseFirstYearID, ZCItem.ItemUseLastYearID FROM ZCPartVault FULL OUTER JOIN ZCItem ON ZCPartVault.PartVaultItemID = ZCItem.ItemID FULL OUTER JOIN ZCValuesYear ON ZCItem.ItemUseLastYearID = ZCValuesYear.YearID AND ZCItem.ItemUseFirstYearID = ZCValuesYear.YearID AND ZCItem.ItemYearID = ZCValuesYear.YearID" > </asp:SqlDataSource>
Is it possible to get a list of rows from Multiple tables which have the same Column Name. I have 3 tables which comtain similar info and I want to get a list of Names the structure is
ID;Name;Address;Phone No.
I was thinking something along the lines of SELECT Name FROM TABLE1,TABLE2, TABLE3
But this does not work.
Is there a nice way of doing this with SQL or should I do code outside the SQL DB
Your help is greatly appreciated. How do you query each one of the following:
1) SELECT FieldValue WHERE DateTime is from 8:30AM - 12:00PM and 6:00PM - 9:30PM on Mondays thru Fridays (i.e. exclude Sat & Sun) for the whole month of January 2008.
2) SELECT FieldValue WHERE DateTime is from 9:30PM - 8:30AM on Mondays thru Fridays, AND ALL-DAY on Saturdays & Sundays for the whole month of January 2008.
Hi, I am having two tables Products and Transaction
In products I have ProductID and Description. (10 Records) In Transaction I have ProductID, Lot, Quantity and ListID . ( 4 Million Records)
When I use the inner join between these tables as below query its taking lot of time to give output.
select ProductID, Desc, Lot, qty from Products inner join Transactions on Products.ProductID = Transactions.ProductID where ListID = '9090909'
otherwise, if I use the below query its takes very few milli seconds to give output but I am not able to get the description from the product table. select * from Transactions TR where TR.ListID= '9090909' and TR.ProductID in
(select NDC from Products where Products.ProductID = TR.ProductID)
Any from can help me to get the description too at very few times.
I have inherited a query which currently returns multiple instances of each work order because of the joined tables. The code is here and I've detailed the criteria needed below but need the best way to accomplish this:
Each work order should only be returned once, and with the following additional criteria:
1. i.meter - this should return only the lowest number from that file.
2. sm.next_calendar_date - this should return only the most recent date out of those selected for the certificates on this piece of equipment
3. wh.meterstop as [Last Service Hours], wh.date_created as [Last Service] - this should return the number from wh.meterstop at the most recent wh.date_created for that piece of equipment.
I currently have two tables called Book and JournalPaper, both of which have a column called Publisher. Currently the data in the Publisher column is the Publisher name that is entered straight into either table and has been duplicated in many cases. To tidy this up I have created a new table called Publisher where each entry will have a unique ID.
I now want to remove the Publisher columns from Book and JournalPaper, replace it with an ID foreign key column and move the Publisher name data into the Publisher table. Is there a way I can do this without duplicating the data as some publishers appear several times on both tables?
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated as my limited SQL is not up to this particular challenge!!! Thanks!
Hi All,I'm trying to solve this for a few days now and I just can't figure itout...I have three tables set up, I'll simplify them for this question:Table 1: HOTELSColumns: HOTEL_ID, HOTEL_NAMEExmple row: 123 || 'Hotel X'Table 2: SERVICESColumns: SERVICE_ID, SERVICE_NAMEExample rows:1 || 'Breakfast in bed'2 || 'King size bed'Table 3: LINK_HOTELS_SERVICESColumns: FK_HOTEL_ID, FK_SERVICE_ID, SERVICE_VALUEExample rows:123 || 1 || 1123 || 2 || 1In table 3 I link different services to different hotels. In the same tableI set the "value" for the service.The first example row of table 3 means something like: Hotel X offersBreakfast in bed. In this case 1 stands for TRUEThe second example row of table 3 means: Hotel X offers King size beds(again: 1 stands for TRUE).What I'm struggling with is selecting the hotel ID's which offer multipleservices. To stay in the example: how can I select all hotels whereSERVICE_ID = 1 AND SERVICE_ID = 1. I can't seem to figure out how to doit...I hope anyone can help... Thanks a lot in advance!!!Robert
I want to have a linking table say for example we call this a claim. Based on the claim number you need to relate to one of say 6 different types of claims. The types of claims related to their own individual parent table. (individual because each type of claim tracks completely different information) does anyone have an idea on how to set this up?
Sample Structure
table = Claim Field 1 = ClaimTypeA_ID Field 2 = ClaimTypeB_ID Field 3 = ClaimTypeC_ID Field 4 = ClaimTypeD_ID Field 5 = ClaimTypeE_ID Field 6 = ClaimTypeF_ID
The six field relate to the 6 different tables ID.
If I do this how do I store the data? put 0's in each of the claim types that are not used???
I need to list all the records in Table2 which don't have matching field values in Table1.
This the the exact opposite of what I need: SELECT DISTINCT Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4, Field5 FROM [Table1] WHERE EXISTS( SELECT DISTINCT FieldA, FieldB, FieldC, FieldD, FieldE FROM [Table2] )
The above seems to give me all records in Table1 in which the five fields match the five fields specified in Table2. What does not show up is the test record I put in Table2 which is not in Table1.
What I need, however, is the exact opposite.
I tried the above using NOT EXISTS but I get no records at all.
I have a SSRS report with a Parameter that lets you choose the name of an employee. The report lists their Name, Number, User ID etc.
When you select a single employee, the filter on the Dataset works perfectly. However once you select two or more employee names, it only returns the first result.
