Table Order
Jun 8, 1999I have a database with 200+ tables. How can I get table order (query) from the system tables so that I know which table I should insert data first.
Thanks,

Analysis :: Order Of Rows In Tabular Table Not In Same Order Data Was Retrieved?
May 19, 2015I never paid much attention to this before but I noticed this today in a new table I was creating.
For tables defined in the tabular model the table properties have something like SELECT Blah FROM TableName ORDER BY Blah Then in the tabular model the table's data is in the same order it was ordered by in the data source for the table.
I have a date table I setup and I noticed it is NOT respecting the sort order.
I have it sorted by DateID which sorts with the oldest date first and newest date as last row.However, the table that is imported and stored in the data model is not in that order.
I can of course manually sort the rows in BIDS/DataTools, but I find this discrepancy odd.
Would this have negative impacts on the EARLIER function for example if the data rows are not in the order specified?
Default Sort Order - Open Table - Select Without Order By
Mar 27, 2008Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.

this query returns the values i want in the table.
select a.quantity * b.price
from tblCustomerPurchases as a
join tblProduct as b
on a.ID=b.ID
FROM Table Order?
Oct 23, 2007I noticed that some queries against an mssql db require the tables in the FROM part of the statement to be in a particular order. Does anyone know why?
For example SELECT * FROM table1, table2, table3 WHERE <blah>
May throw an error (Unknown table table3 [I can't remember the exact verbiage of the error]), while simply rearranging the table order to:
SELECT * FROM table3, table1, table2 WHERE <blah> will work.
It seems like the error has something to do with how mssql handles the joins of the tables, but I can't seem to find any documentation about it.

Regarding Table Order
Dec 16, 2005Greetings,I have an application that need to get all the userdefined child tables first before their parents.I wrote a query, given in this newsgroup only, as belowSELECT o.nameFROM sysobjects oWHERE o.type='U'ORDER BY case WHEN exists ( SELECT *FROM sysforeignkeys fWHERE o.id = f.fkeyid )THEN 1ELSE 0end, o.namegoWhen i try to truncate the first table of the list, it still tells methat tha table is being referenced by foreign key in another table. Mymain job is to truncate all the user defined tables before loading datainto them.Is there something wrong in the query? Or if someone can tell me abetter approach.Any help will be appreciated.TIA
View 5 Replies View RelatedTable Order By Clause
Mar 23, 2006When I say to sort on a datetime field on descending order, the date is sorted. However, the time difference is not reflected in the results.
Any way, we can fix it.
i.e. If I have two records with the same dates but different times, the sorting order is not considering the time.

How To Know The Order Of Entries In A Table
Jul 5, 2007For example some data has entered into a table in a random manner i.e the pk filed value is not in a serial fashion.Is there any table or index that holds the entries of rows into a particular table as entered .
i.e
'some_table' has data like this
3,entry3
2,entry2
4,entry4
1,entry1
I want some DB table or Index that holds data like this about above 'some_table'
row_id .... .... ....
1
2
3
4
here 1 refers to entry of the first column in 'some_table' i.e 3,entry3
and so on...

Table Execution Order
Nov 14, 2007I have nested lists and I want to set a global value in my custom code AFTER a specific table footer row. Does anybody know in what order the table elements are rendered? I have tried adding my piece of code into a group value, the hidden property, the color property, and sending it as a parameter to a subreport, but it still sets that variable first before rendering the table footer row that I want to display before I set that variable. I have been pulling my hair out trying to do this one! Help!

ORDER BY (field In Foreign Table)
Apr 4, 2008Newbie question. Can someone show me an SQL statement that sorts the results of a query by a field in a different table?
CREATE TABLE `Table1`
(
`table1_id` INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`table1_name` VARCHAR(255),
PRIMARY KEY (`table1_id`)
)
CREATE TABLE `Table2`
(
`table2_id` INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`table2_name` VARCHAR(255),
`table2_table1` INTEGER,
PRIMARY KEY (`table2_id`)
)
ALTER TABLE `Table2` ADD FOREIGN KEY (`table2_table1`) REFERENCES `Table1`(`table1_id`);
What I'd like is something like:
SELECT * FROM Table2 ORDER BY "Table1(table2_table1).tabel1_name",table2_name
It's the section in double quotes that I can't figure out how to compose.
As an example, if Table 1 has
1, A
2, B
3, C
and Table 2 has
1, a, 2
2, b, 1
3, c, 2
then I'd like the sort to return
2, b, 1
1, a, 2
3, c, 2
TIA,
Stephen
How To Keep Original Order When Querying A Table?
Sep 10, 2004Hello, everyone:
I have a table like:
ColName
b
b
b
d
d
d
a
a
c
c
c
I use DISTINCT to filter duplicated row. I want to get the return by original order like:
b
d
a
c
However, SQL Server re-order it if using DISTINCT and return like:
a
b
c
d
Can any one have the idea to handle that? Thanks

Table Order In Clustered Index?
Feb 29, 2008I have a table "Client" that has two columns: "ClientID" and "ProductID". I created on clustered index on ClientID and when I opened the table in the management studio, I saw the table was in the order of ClientID.
Then I added another non-clustered index on ProductID. When I open the table again, it is in the order of ProductID. Shouldn't the table always be in the order of clustered index? Non-clustered index should be a structure outside of the table itself? Did I do anything wrong?
Thanks for any hint.

View 2 Replies View RelatedTransact SQL :: Order By A Column From Another Table
Sep 2, 2015I have two tables, one is called (questions), the second one (answers).
questions columns are (ID,questionTitle)
answers columns are (ID,questionID,answer, answerDate)
I use this query to load data: "SELECT q.questionTitle,COUNT (a.ID),a.answerDate FROM questions q LEFT JOIN answers a ON q.ID=a.questionID" the query is easy, but my problem which I can't solve is how can I fetch the data ordered by the column answerDate, I mean I want the first record to be the one which has the most recent answer and so on.
Analysis :: Order A Table With MDX Queries
Apr 21, 2015I have the following MDX query:
SELECT NON EMPTY {[DateT].[Year].[Year].Members } ON ROWS,
NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Val] } ON COLUMNS FROM [MyDB]
I need to order the data by year, so I tried this query:
SELECT
NON EMPTY { Order ( [DateT].[Year].[Year].Members,Desc) }
ON ROWS,
NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Val] } ON COLUMNS
FROM [MyDB]
But it doesn't work.
Need A Quick Hand Using ORDER BY With Two Fields In The Same Table.
Aug 6, 2004I have a problem with ordering and I am hoping that someone is able to help.
In my table I have two fields, "requestdate" and "sentdate", and when I display the records I would like to sort by BOTH fields. I want to do this so that the full query is in order by date.
I tried:
ORDER BY requestdate, sentdate DESC
But obviously all that does is order by requestdate (which is NULL or a date) and than it will order by sentdate.
Can somebody tell me how to order by both as if they were the same field?
Thanks!

Incorrect Order Result Set When Join Table
Mar 24, 2002Hi all,
I faced a problem, I have two tables - part and partmaster
part : part_no, part_qty (no key)
partmaster : part_no, part_description (primary key : part_no )
I want to select table part.* and partmaster.part_description.
(run on mssql 2k)
select a.*, b.part_description
from part a, partmaster b where a.part_no *= b.part_no
I want to and expect to have the result order like table "part". However, after the join, the order is different. I try to run it on mssql 7.0, the order is ok.
Then I modify and run the statement select a.* from part a, partmaster b where a.part_no *= b.part_no on 2k again. The result order is ok.
can anyone tell me the reason?
Now I try to fix this problem is adding a sequence field "part_seq" into table "part" and run the statement by adding a order by part_seq.
It does work!
Regards,
Simon
Does Column Order Matter When Creating A Table?
Mar 16, 2001Does column order matter when creating a table? For example, Should NOT NULL columns always come before NULL columns? Should most frequently used columns always be near the top? What about text, ntext and image data types? Should they always appear near the end of the column order?
