Table Join Statement Returns Repeat Rows
Jul 22, 2007
Hello All.
I am struggling with the below join block in my stored procedure.
I can't seem to get the duplicate row problem to go away. It seems that SQL is treating each new instance of an email address as reason to create a new row despite the UNIONs.
I understand that if I am using UNION, using DISTINCT is redundant and will not solve the duplicate row problem.
Primary Keys: none of the email address columns are primary keys. Each table has an incrementing ID column that serves
as the primary key.
I am guessing I am encountering this problem because of how
I have structured my Join statements? Is it possible to offer advice without a deeper understanding of my data model or
do you need more information?
Thanks for any tips.
Code:
select emailAddress from Users union
select user_name from PersonalPhotos union
select email_address from EditProfile union
select email_address from SavedSearches union
select distinct email_address from UserPrecedence union
select email_address from LastLogin) drv
Left Join Users tab1 on (drv.emailAddress = tab1.emailAddress)
Inner Join UserPrecedence tab5 on tab5.UserID=tab1.UserID
Left Join PersonalPhotos tab2 on (drv.emailAddress = tab2.user_name)
Left Join LastLogin tab4 on (drv.emailAddress = tab4.email_address)
Left Join EditProfile tab3 on (drv.emailAddress = tab3.email_address)
Left Join SavedSearches tab6 on (drv.emailAddress = tab6.email_address

I have the following query:
select sq.*, p.numero, p.nombre
from paf p right outer join dbo.GetListOfSquaresForShippingLot(@lot) sq on sq.number = p.numero and sq.version = p.numero
The @lot parameter is declared at the top ( declare @lot int; set @lot = 1; ). GetListOfSquaresForShippingLot is a CLR TVF coded in C#. The TVF queries a XML field in the database and returns nodes as rows, and this is completed with information from a table.
If I run a query with the TVF only, it returns data; but if I try to join the TVF with a table, it returns empty, even when I'm expecting matches. I thought the problem was the data from the TVF was been streamed and that's why it could not be joined with the data from the table.
I tried to solve that problem by creating a T-SQL multiline TVF that is supposed to generate a temporary table. This didn't fix the problem.
What can I do? Does anybody know if I can force the TVF to render its data somewhere so the JOIN works? I was thinking a rowset function could help, but I just can't figure out how.
PLEASE HELP!!!!
Let me know if you want the code for the CLR TVF. This is the code for the T-SQL TVF:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[GetTabListOfSquaresForShippingLot]
(
@ShippingLot int
)
RETURNS
@result TABLE
(
Number int, Version int, Position smallint,
SubModel smallint, Quantity smallint,
SquareId nvarchar(5),
ParentSquareId nvarchar(5),
IsSash smallint,
IsGlazingBead smallint,
Width float,
Height float,
GlassNumber smallint,
GlassWidth float,
GlassHeight float
)
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @result
SELECT *
FROM dbo.GetListOfSquaresForShippingLot(@ShippingLot)
RETURN
END

Hi all,
I am trying to build a association table (t2) to store a list of users
have viewed an item in my records table (t1). My goal is to send the
UserID parameter to the query and return to the user a read / not read
marker from the query so I can handle the read ones differently in my
.net code. The problem is that I cannot work out how to return anything
but the read data to the client. So far my stored proc looks like this
DECLARE @UserID AS Int -- FOR TESTING
SET @UserID = 219 -- FOR TESTING
SELECT t1.strTitle, t1.MemoID, Count(t2.UserID) AS ReadCount,t2.UserID
FROM t1
LEFT OUTER JOIN
t2 ON t1.MemoID = t2.MemoID
WHERE t2.UserID = @UserID
GROUP BY t1.MemoID, t1.strTitle,t2.UserID
It works fine but only returns those records from t1 that are read. I
need to return the records with null values also! I may have built the
assoc table wrong and would really appreciate some pointers on what I
am doing wrong. (assoc table has rID, MemoID and UserID columns)
Please help!
Many thanks

Hi,
I'm having a little trouble with the following code:
SELECT DISTINCT cd1.*, cd2.*
FROM Table1 cd1 LEFT JOIN Table2 cd2
ON cd1.RegNr=cd2.RegNr
WHERE cd1.RegNr = $RegNr
I want it to return the 2 rows that is present in the tables but it returns 4.

Here is my query which returns multiple rows
SELECT
R.name, R.age,R.DOB,
ISNULL(D.Doc1,'NA') AS doc1,
ISNULL(C.Doc2,'NA') AS doc2
FROM
REQ R
inner join RES S ON R.Request_Id=S.Request_Id
inner join RES1 D ON D.Response_Id=S.Response_Id
inner join REQ1 C ON C.Request_Id=R.Request_Id
select * from RES1 where Response_Id = 111 -- return 3
select * from REQ1 where Request_Id = 222 --- returns 2
So at last inner join retuns 3*2 = 6 records , which is wrong here and i want to show 3 records in doc1 row and 2 records in doc 2 rows ...

I have a query that based 2 tables. I wrote a query with a left join on the base table but the result set returns multiple rows for each occurrence in the second table because of the left join. I want but to return all records from on table A and only matching records from table B which id but I would wan tit to keep return them vertically as the because it make it difficult to read when put in a spreadsheet. It want it to return the values horizontally so the rows are not increasing for each occurrence on table b.

I maintain a simple employment (job) tracking web application.
Jobs can be set to 5 different statuses: Open, Closed, Filled, Pending, or Cancelled.
There is a table in the database called statusLog, which records everytime a job is set to opened, or set to closed, etc. It records the job number, the date it was changed, and what the job was changed to.
Here is a short example of what a few entries might look like:
Status Date Job number
Open10/6/2002 2:34:56 PMTEST2845
Hold10/11/2002 12:19:29 PMTEST2845
Closed10/29/2002 2:00:54 PMTEST2845
Pending10/25/2002 3:37:06 PMTEST2877
What I need to do is write an SQL query that will return to me all entries in this table, between two certain dates, that ONLY have entries during those dates.
Basically I need to know how many "new" jobs were set to open during a month. I can easily just do a count of how many jobs were set to open, but this will not give a count of "new" jobs.
Example: during june a job could be set to open. Then in july it could be set to pending. Then in august, it could be re-opened, and set to open.
If I ran this query for the month of August, it would return that job as being opened in august. But it wasn't a new job, meaning it had already been in the system in previous months.
Is there some way I can select all "Open" jobs, between a certain date, that do not exist anywhere in the table previous to the date it was entered? This would give me a result set containing only new jobs.
The only way I've thought of yet is to get a result set of all jobs simply set to open during a month, then one by one for each record, go back and run another SQL query to see if it exists in the table anywhere other than in that month.
This seems horribly inefficient to me however, as I do not want to be doing 34,000 independent SQL calls for every single "open" job it finds during a certain month.
thanks

I have a simple query that joins a largeish fact table (3 million rows) to a view that returns 120 rows. The SKEY in the view is returned via a scalar function. The view returns instantly if queried on it's own however when joined to the fact table in the simple query below results in a query execution plan that runs forever. Interestingly if I change the INNER JOIN to a LEFT OUTER JOIN the query returns the matched results almost instantly.
Select
Dimension.Age_Band.[10_Year_Age_Band],
Count(*)
From
Fact.APC_Episodes
Inner Join Dimension.Age_Band ON
Fact.APC_Episodes.AGE_BAND_SKEY = Age_Band.AGE_BAND_SKEY
Group By
Dimension.Age_Band.[10_Year_Age_Band]
I know joining to a view using a column generated by a scalar function is not a good recipe for performance. I also know that I could fix this by populating a physical table with the view first as I have already tested this though I hoping not to have to go down that route.
Why a LEFT OUTER JOIN works and not an INNER JOIN or anyway I can get the query optimizer to generate an execution plan that works?

I'm having trouble with a multi-table JOIN statement with more than one JOIN statement.
For each order, I need to return the following: CarsID, CarModelName, MakeID, OrderDate, ProductName, Total ordered the Car Category.
The carid (primary key) and carmodelname belong to the Cars table.
The makeid and orderdate belong to the OrderDetails table.
The productname and carcategory belong to the Product table.
The number of rows returned should be the same as the number of rows in OrderDetails.

Why does this right join return the same results as using a left (or even a full join)?There are 470 records in Account, and there are 1611 records in Contact. But any join returns 793 records.
select Contact.firstname, Contact.lastname, Account.[Account Name]
from Contact
right join Account
on Contact.[Account Name] = Account.[Account Name]
where Contact.[Account Name] = Account.[Account Name]

I have an SSRS report I'm working on. I have Row Groups plus details.
A) How can I get the row group headers to repeat on every line?
B) I would still like to use the drill down, click the plus sign, and have that work when I export to excel.
Here is the report header: URL....My first thought was is there a way simply to cause the header to repeat. I cannot find that anywhere to do that.My second though was to split the cells and copy the fields to all the rows.Here is the same header with split cells:URL....two problems.
A) I cannot split one cell; See the "X" in the second capture.
B) How do I still hid the rows until I drill down.

W2k3 server, SQL 2005.
@@version = Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86)
Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2
(Build 3790: Service Pack 1)
I have my first SSIS package almost working, but I'm having an odd problem and can't find any information to help resolve it.
I'm importing from a flat file (csv) to an existing table (append). I've got a Derived Column transformation in the middle to do some data cleanup. It's all working except for one little problem...
One of the transformations is 'REPLACE([Column 3],"^","; ")', output to a new column. (The input file has a field that uses carets as delimiters between an unknown number of items; I'm changing that to semicolons for easier reading.) Not all rows have data in this column, some will have one item, some will have multiple items.
The REPLACE works except that it fills in repeated data for all the blank rows.
Example:
Incoming data is:
1 Smith,Jane^Jones,Jane
2 Brown,John
3
4 Adams,James^Adams,Jim
5
6 White,Debra
Data inserted into the table is:
1 Smith,Jane; Jones,Jane
2 Brown,John
3 Brown,John
4 Adams,James; Adams,Jim
5 Adams,James; Adams,Jim
6 White,Debra
I've tried to use a Conditional to skip the empty rows, but I can't get that working at all (get syntax errors no matter what I put in).
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be most appreciated!
Thank you.

I have a table which represents a machine, it has two transducer heads. I have set a table representing the different transducers which will fit on to each of the heads. I want to join the trans one index to the transducer table and then join transtwo to the transducer table also. I've tried twice and keep getting a sql error on executing.

I am using SLQ Server 2008 R2. The database was designed by another company.
I have two tables: Client and Client_Location. In the Client table the pk is Client_ID. There is also a unique key: sys_Client_ID. Both the Client_ID and the sys_Client_ID fields exist as a foreign keys in the Client_Location table. However, the fields are not noted as unique in the Client_Location table. There are two fields in the Client_Location table that determine when the address was effective. They are from_dt and end_dt.
Multiple records have been loaded into the Client_Location table to track old as well as current addresses of clients.
I'm trying to run a report that will pull clients with a plan_id constraint from the Client table and join the Client_Location table to retrieve the current address of these clients.
My SQL is:
select distinct (a.client_id), a.cli_last AS Last_Name,
a.cli_first AS First_Name, a.cli_middle AS Mid_Init,
b.city AS City, b.county AS County, b.state AS State
from ECBH.dbo.tbl_Client a inner join ECBH.dbo.tbl_Client_Location b
on a.client_id = b.client_id
inner join ECBH.dbo.tbl_client_insurance c
on a.client_id = c.client_id
inner join ECBH_TEST.dbo.tbl_GEF_County d
on b.county = d.COUNTY_NAME
where c.plan_id = 4
order by a.cli_last, a.cli_first
Because multiple records exist in the Client_Location table, the result set has duplicates. How can I pull only the results where the from_dt is most recent?

Hello,I want to be able to view data from 3 tables using the JOIN statement, butI'm not sure of how to do it. I think i don't know the syntax of the joins.Iimagine this is easy for the experienced - but Im not.Allow me to explain:I have 2 Tables: PERSON and SIGNPERSON------PersonNo int (Primary Key)Name varchar(50)StarSign intFavFood intSIGN----StarSign int (Primary Key)StarSignName varchar(50)Relationship: SIGN has a one-to-many relationship with PERSON. The linkingfield is called 'StarSign'.Question 1:I want to display all the peoples names, and their star sign (whether theyhave one or not).Answer 1:SELECT PERSON.Name, SIGN.StarSignNameFROM PERSON LEFT OUTER JOIN SIGN ON PERSON.StarSign = SIGN.StarSign;No problems there. But now I want to do the same thing, but have theirfavourite food displayed as well. So an additional table is needed:FOOD----FavFood int (Primary Key)FavFoodName varchar(50)Relationship: FOOD has a one-to-many relationship with PERSON. The linkingfield is called 'FavFood'.Question 2:I want to display all the peoples names, their star signs (whether theyhave one or not), and their favourite food (whether they have one or not).Answer 1:???I'm not sure what to do. Notice that I want to use an LEFT OUTER JOIN so ALLthe rows from table PERSON will appear 'irrespective' of whether they haverelated records in the other tables.Jack.

Hi,I'm am looking for a little help. I need to create a SQL view whichjoins a few tables, and I need to return an average for a particularcolumn where a second duplicate ID exists...Heres an example of how the results could be returned...ID | Name | Order No. | Value---+------+-----------+---------5 | test | 1234 | 35 | test2| 1234 | 45 | test3| 1234 | 35 | void | 1235 | 55 | void2| 1235 | 65 | void3| 1235 | 55 | void4| 1235 | 7ID is my main join which joins the tablesName is a unique nameOrder No is the same for the different names, I only need to return onerow with this order no, and the first name (the rest are irrelevant)Value is the field which I wish to return as an average of all 3, 4 orhowever many rows is returned and share the same order no. This iswhere I get totally lost as I am pretty new to SQL. Can anyone provideany help on how I would go about limiting this query to the uniqueorder no's and returning the average of the value field, and I can takeit from there with my own tables.Thanks for your helpstr8

I have a stored procedure that I have written that manipulates date fields in order to produce certain reports. I would like to add a column in the dataset that will be a join from another table (the table name is Periods).
The structure of the periods table is as follows:
[ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Period] [int] NULL,
[Quarter] [int] NULL,
[Year] [int] NULL,
[PeriodStarts] [date] NULL,
[PeriodEnds] [date] NULL
The stored procedure is currently:
USE [International_Forecast_New]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[GetOpenResult] Script Date: 01/07/2014 11:41:35 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
[Code] ....
What I need is to add the period, quarter and year to the dataset based on the "Store_Open" value.
For example Period 2 looks like this
Period Quarter Year Period Start Period End
2 1 20142014-01-27 2014-02-23
So if the store_open value is 02/05/2014, it would populate Period 2, Quarter 1, Year 2014.

There are multiple enteries in the Journal table for every entry in the CallLog table, so I receive multiple records:
CallID HEATSeq00000164 983290904 00000164 983291548 00000164 983295209 00000231 984818271 00000231 985194317 00000231 985280248
I only want to return the LAST record in the Journal table, so the output will be:
CallID HEATSeq00000164 983295209 00000231 985280248
Can this be done directly in the SQL call?

Below is a simplified table & dataset to illustrate a problem I'm experiencing with a more complex one.
Code Block
create table #test(
recno smallint PRIMARY KEY,
value decimal (18,2))
insert into #test values (1, 3.57)
insert into #test values (2, 5.32)
insert into #test values (3,6.29)
insert into #test values (4, 9.25)
insert into #test values (5, 0.84)
Method 1: I tried inserting rows from #test into a temp table (#table) as follows
Code Block
declare @n as nvarchar(3)
set @n = 1
while @n <= (select count(recno) from #test)
begin
exec ('
insert into ##table
select *,
originalrecno = (select recno from #test where recno = '+@n+')
from #test'
)
set @n = @n + 1
end
However, this yields an error message:
Code Block
Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Invalid object name '##table'.
Note - you can comment out the insert into ##table line above to view the results that I'm trying to put into ##table.
Method 2: next I tried explicitly creating ##table & rerunning the loop containing the insert
Code Block
create table ##table (
recno smallint,
value decimal (18,2),
originalrecno smallint)
declare @n as nvarchar(3)
set @n = 1
while @n <= (select count(recno) from #test)
begin
exec ('
insert into ##table
select *,
originalrecno = (select recno from #test where recno = '+@n+')
from #test'
)
set @n = @n + 1
end
This worked - it inserted the data from the select statements in the loop into ##table.
Question - why won't method 1 work?

Hello,
I wonder how and if this can be achieved:
In a tabular report I have one or more columns that need to be repeated on every new physical page when printed.
Viewing the report in the ReportViewer control allows such columns to be fixed using the "FixedHeader" switch, allowing the user to conveniently scroll the reports content while always having the fixed columns in sight. This is perfect. However, when switching to the Print Layout view or when printing the report, I would like to have these fixed columns be printed on every new page that is generated at the beginning of the table printed.
E.g. I have a report that has a huge number of columns that need to be shown. When printed, the columns need at least 6 pages' width. I would be very convenient if I could repeat e.g. the first column (containing some identificational information) on every of these 6 pages. It wouldn't hurt if e.g. 7 pages would be generated because of the repeated column(s).
Any help is appreciated, thanks a lot!

Hi,I trying to write a select statement that will return each of my salesmen a region code based on a table of post codes using wildcards... eg.MK1 1AA would be matched in the region code table to MK1%SELECT dn.DEALER_CODE, dn.NAME AS DNAME, rc.REGION_ID,rc.POST_CODE, dn.POSTAL_CODEFROM REGIONAL_CODES rc CROSS JOINDEALER_NAW dnWHERE (dn.POSTAL_CODE LIKE rc.POST_CODE)The above statement works BUT there are some post code areas such asour friends in Milton Keynes that are split into two regions... eg MK1is region id 2 and MK10 is region 3.So a dealer with post code MK10 1AA would be matched to both rowsreturning duplicatesPOST_CODE REGION_IDMK1% 2MK10% 3I think the answer would lie in a subquery which returns the ID of theregion with the longest length of the postcode match (e.g.len(POST_CODE) for the rc table... return only the MAX....any ideas????Any help muchos appreciated, and I apologies now for the naming of thedealers name as a reserve word... not me!Ct

I have a query which is returning a different result set when it is run against identical tables in 2 different environments.
The query is like:
Select
F.LicenseeID, IsSpecialLicensee
from FactTable F
left join View_SpecialLicensee SL on F.LicenseeID = SL.LicenseeID
The Create Statement for the view is like
Create View [dbo].[View_SpecialLicensee]
as
Select LicenseeID, LicenseeName, IsSpecialLicensee = 1
from DimensionLicensee
where LicenseeName like '%ibm%'
or LicenseeName like '%cisco%'
or LicenseeName like '%hp%'
In my test environment, I get the query result I expected:
LicenseeID, IsSpecialLicensee
1 , 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'IBM')
2, null - (where LicenseeName = 'Juniper')
3, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Cisco')
4, null - (where LicenseeName = 'Microsoft')
5, null - (where LicenseeName = 'Oracle')
6, null - (where LicenseeName = 'Apple')
In my production environment, I get the following query result:
1 , 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'IBM')
2, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Juniper')
3, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Cisco')
4, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Microsoft')
5, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Oracle')
6, 1 - (where LicenseeName = 'Apple')
Ideas as to what changed gratefully received.
FYI the production environment which returned the 2nd dataset is SQL2000, I have got the result I expected in both SQL2000 and SQL2005 development environments.

After changing the Service account for a SQL Server 2005 SP2 machine the DMV sys.dm_os_performance_counters
is returning zero rows. These values were availiable prior to change
The change in Service account was done via the Configuration manager and the Service account is also part of the Local Administrator group
Since this change the Performance Counters in Perfmon for SQLSEVERatabases and others are also not availiable
Any suggestions on where to start looking ?

I have a table:
declare tableName table
(
uniqueid int identity(1,1),
id int,
starttime datetime2(0),
endtime datetime2(0),
parameter int
)
A stored procedure has new set of values for a given id. Sometimes the startime and endtime are the same, in which case I update the value of parameter. Sometimes I add a new time range (insert statement), and sometimes I delete a time range (delete statement).
I had a question on merge, with insert, delete and update and I got that resolved. However I have a different question regarding performance of the merge statement.
If my target table has hundreds of millions of records and I want to delete/update/insert a handful of records, will SQL server scan the entire target table? I can't have:
merge ( select * from tableName where id = 10 ) as target
using ...
and I can't have:
merge tableName as target
using [my query] as source on
source.id = target.id and
source.starttime = target.startime and
source.endtime = target.endtime
where target.id = 10
...
This means I cannot filter the set of rows in the target table to a handful of records where id = 10.

I have a query that returns material(items) that are used in an event on a certain day.
SELECT C.categoryName, count(I.itemID) AS InMission
from items as I
RIGHT JOIN Categories AS C on I.categoryID = C.categoryID
INNER JOIN LinkMissionItem as LM on I.itemID = LM.itemID
INNER JOIN Missions as M on LM.missionID = M.MissionID
where '2015/12/19' BETWEEN M.freightLeave and M.freightReturn AND isReturned = 0
GROUP BY C.categoryName, C.categoryID
ORDER BY C.categoryID
There are a total of 20 categories and I would like all the categories listed in the result even though there are no items booked in a mission. At the moment, I can only get the categories that have items in that category booked in a mission. I hoped that the RIGHT JOIN on the categories table would do the trick but it doesn't.

Good day,
I just like to ask if anybody has experienced getting empty rows from SQL data adapter? I'm using SQL Server 2005. Problem is when the sql is run on Query Analyzer it retrieves a number of rows but when used in my application it returns 0 or empty rows.
I thought the connection is not the problem since I got my columns right. Below is my code snippet.
Thanks!
const string COMMAND_TEXT = @"select distinct somefield as matchcode, count(somefield) "
+ "as recordcount from filteredaccount where StateCode = 0 group by somefield having count(somefield) > 1";
SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(COMMAND_TEXT, connection);
DataTable dt = new DataTable(sometablename);
adapter.Fill(dt);
