I have a table that contains words that will be used to search another table where FullText index has been created on searchable columns. I'm basically trying to run something like this:
SELECT t1.col1, t2.col3
FROM tbl1 t1, tbl2 t2
WHERE CONTAINS (t1.col1, t2.col1)
I know this won't work but is there a way to join these two tables so the words (t2.col1) can be passed as search conditions? There is no common key on both tables so normal join won't work. I'm trying to find a way to pass the search words from one table to another.
I have one control table to store all related table name
Table ID TableName
1 TableA
2 TableB
In Table A:
RecordID Value
1 1
2 2
3 3
In Table B:
RecordID Value
1 1
2 2
3 3
How can I get the result by select the Table list first and then combine the data in table A and table B?
Thank you!
I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks
Hello,
I have an SQL database with a table. This table has two fields: [Title] and [Description].
In my web site I have a text box where the user inserts some keywords, as follows: 1 > book english 2 > book AND english 3 > book OR english
Is it possible to create an SQL procedure which looks which records have the words "book" and "english" in the fields [Title] or [Description]?
And is it possible to somehow also use the words "AND" and "OR"?
I never did something like this and I just would like to create a simple search in my web site which looks into my documents table.
Thank You Very Much,Miguel

dear all,
is is possible to search for a value in a sql a table?
I know that you can search for a particular value in a column,
like "select * frm table where clomn1 = 'test'"
what about select * from table where value = 'test'?
do you have to declare value? and how?
can some one guide me on this please?

I have a backup application that uses SQL as the backend (both 2000 and 2005) The backup application performs a specific function that enters data into the Database but does not have any reporting. I am looking for a way to query the DB directly to see if there is any info I can grab. But the problem is I don't know where its stored. So my questions) are:
Is there anyway to tell what tables get updated by a certain process. For example if I run this one action how could I then tell what tables were effected or even what data was changed. I tried looking for a logging function that would list this but did not find it. I also tried looking for some type of real time monitor. I even tried looking for a way to search for records / tables that had been recently updated.
I am new to SQL so not sure I am using the correct terms but any help would be appreciated. Also this is SQL2000 and a test server
Thanks in advance for your time

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I have the following table:
Code Block
Request
requestid
customername
age
sex
address
status
[status =
0 deleteme
1 addme
2 updatme
3 processed]
I need to write a stored proc that will do the following :
Input : requestid
Logic : check the customers who already have a status of 'deleteme' and have now filed a status of 'addme'. For this, inside the stored proc, i will retreive the customername and address using the requestid and then check in the table for all the customers who have the samename, address and status=0. How can i detect this.
Output : 0 for no entry found and requestid if a request of 'deleteme' for the same person was found.
For eg:
Code Blockrequestid,customername,age,sex,address,status
22352,Jack,23,M,'Texas',1
I need to check if a person with the name of Jack and address Texas is there in the db with the status of 0.
Plz note: My Request table can contain more than 100000 records at a time. Please sugest accordingly
Plz help. Thanks
I am using tables with recursive relationships extensively. For example the table tbComponent has a primary key called Co_ID and a foreign key called Co_Co_ID which references the field Co_ID. This allows a component to have unlimited child components, and each child component can have an unlimited number of tiers of children. I have a few question for which I have seen no documentation on.
1. How can I create a view or a SP that will return a component record and all of its children and children's children records down to the last/lowest child record?
2. I need to be able to do a search in this table. Example:
Table: tbComponent
Columns: Co_ID Integer
Co_Co_ID Integer
Co_Name Text
Co_Attribute Text
Co_Category Text
Note: the data for Co_Category comes from a lookup table with also has a recursive relationship to itself where a category can have an unlimited number of tiers of children categories.
A typical group of records could be something like this:
Co_ID Co_Co_ID Co_Name Co_Attribute Co_Category
1 1 Car Blue Ford
2 1 Body Steel Parts
3 2 Door Front Parts
4 3 Invoice April 1 1999 Accounting
Ok, say there is over a million records in this table. Say I want to query this table and return all of the invoices for cars between March 1 1999 and May 1 1999. Say for example that there are less records where Co_Name has a value of Car then there are records with a value of Invoice, so logically I would set some kind of criteria to limit only invoices with where Co_Name = "Car". That's easy, I can return a result set of all the records Where Co_Name = "Car" and I can hold these in a view or a temp table. Now I need to query this View or temp table and see if it has any children records records Where Co_Name = "Invoice" . The problem is that the Invoice child could be a child record directly under the "Car" record, or 10 levels of children records down. The logic for this would be:
If Co_Name = "Car" Then Select * Where Co_Co_ID = 1, then take all of those record's values in Co_ID and run another statement Where Co_Co_ID = X and so on until there are no more children to search. If any of those records have a value of Invoice in Co_Name then return them.
Please don't give any speeches on Normal Relationship Database design suggesting a typical design using something like a Car table, a parts table, and a invoice table. I used the example above to demonstrate the dynamics of doing a search on a recursive relationship. I understand relationship theory and a recursive relationship is what we need to use in our situation.
Thanks for any and all input!
Hi,
Dow do I search for a dat time in table like
select * from table where colDate = '1999-09-09+00:00:00.000'. This doesn't work so how to go abt it?
I apologize for the newbie sort of question, but I could not find an answer in an SQL book nor via Google.
I wish to search for a text string in ALL fields of a table. This will be used to provide a simple search box in a web application.
So far, the only method I've found to accomplish this is follows:
SELECT *
FROM Inventory
WHERE SerialNumber LIKE '%searchstring%' OR UserName LIKE '%searchstring%' OR Location LIKE '%searchstring%' ... etc
My goal is to accomplish something like the following. This, of course, does not execute properly since * can only be used following SELECT, but you can get an idea of the target behavior:
SELECT *
FROM Inventory
WHERE * LIKE '%searchstring%'
I'm using MSDE with Visual Basic .Net. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Thanks for all help,
Kieran
Hi,
Is it possible to search a field in a database, extract CERTAIN data, and insert THIS data into another field in another table?
Example:

18 BerryWood Drive, Midland, Doncaster, Y09 2JF
I want to extract the postcode from this field into another field in another table....
Example 2:

I wish to strip the last name from the field, and put this into a field in another table..

im pretty new to SQL and i'm just reading up on full-text searches... i need to do a a full-text search on one table i have in the database.. however I'm reading about full-text indexing/searching and a lot of pages are saying that it uses a lot of resources when searching.. i was wondering how bad is it really? we have about ~100 users who would access the database, probably the peak would be 75 at a time.. would people using a full-text searching slow it down a lot? the servr is a dell poweredge 1750 server, dual 2.8ghz xeon, 1 gig ram.. and also, about the incermental population, if i read right, it populates the catalog each time a item in the table is deleted/inserted/modified.. so would that use a lot of resources as well?
i'm just trying to see if it's worth it to enable full-text indexing for searches on the database if it doesn't slow down the server too much... or are there any better/easier ways to perform searches?
thanks
Hi All,
We have modified a column name for a table. Now we need to find out all the database objects (stored procedures, functions, views) which access this table so that we can modify them. This is a very big database and its not easy to open the code for each object and check if its access that table.
To add to the complexity, its not just one table and column but a number of tables have been modified.
Any pointers is highly appreciated
Thanks,
Krishna.
I am trying to find a needle in a haystack.
One of the tables in this database has a column named column_xyz.
There are over 800 tables, each with numerous columns. If I know that the column I am looking for is "column_xyz" is there an easy query I can do to identify all tables that contain that column?
I hope.
Thanks
We purchased a software package that has a built in e-mail package. We now find ourselves in a position to audit the e-mails that are flying around. But the vendor is not telling us the name of the table that contains the text/body of the e-mails in order to audit the e-mails. My boss would like me to dump the tables to a text file and search through them looking for key words. There has to be a way to do that without dumping the tables, isn't there? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you! Jena

Hey, i have multiple search strings and I don't want to keep track of the search strings in SQL format.
As in, i don't want to do this anymore:
Select *
From tbl_Name
where FirstName = 'John' or
FirstName = 'Mike' or
FirstName Like 'Jen%' or
...
and the list continues for at least a 100...
what i want to do is store all the search values in a table and then join on that table as a search...
Create Table as tbl_SearchValues
[FirstName] as Varchar(50)
Insert Table tbl_SearchValues values ('John', 'Mike', 'Jen%')
Select *
From tbl_name n Join tbl_SearchValues s
on n.FirstName Like s.FirstName
This doesn't work cause I tried it... but does anyone know a different workaround??

SELECT Table.*
FROM Table
WHERE * = @USERINPUT
But thats not working. Can someone help.? Thanks..
