Transact SQL :: Combining Two Queries From Different Linked Databases
May 20, 2015
I have 2 DBs located on separate Sql Servers but the DBs are linked. I am querying data from both DBs but want to combine the results. Here is my query but it doesn't seem to be working.
(SELECT DISTINCT
idname, name, address, address2, awardedtoname, suppno
FROM contract INNER JOIN
house ON contract.idname = house.idname)
JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT
tpd.PropertyNumber AS [Property No], tpd.Address1 + ' , ' + tpd.Address2 AS Estate, tpd.Address1 AS Address1,
[Code] ....
How I could combine the results?

I have these two CTE queries, the first one is the existing one which runs fine and returns what we need, the second is a new CTE query which result I need to join in to the existing CTE, now that would be two CTE's can that be done at all?The second query is working on the same table as the first one so there are overlaps in names, and they are the same, only columns I need to "join" is the "seconds" and "AlarmSessions".
;with AlarmTree as (
select NodeID, ParentID, NodeLevel, NodeName,
cast('' as varchar(max)) as N0,
cast('' as varchar(max)) as N1,
cast('' as varchar(max)) as N2,
cast('' as varchar(max)) as N3,
[code]....

I have to run this 3 times for similar but slightly different parameters. I only change the very top peice of code slightly each time:
1. Partition by Forename, Surname, DOB, Postcode
2. Partition by Forename, DOB, Postcode
3. Forename, Surname, DOB.
As you can see very subtle change, ideally I'd like to find a way to run just one report where all of the above occur, the issue I face running separately is one person may appear on 1 or more giving duplicates.
USE HealthBI_Views;this bit below is basically grouping my output on Forename, Surname, DOB & Postcode. What the whole process is trying to achieve is to show where a patient which has all of the above fields identical but has a different patient identifier suggesting that the service has allocated to unique identifiers to the same person which will result in both records needing to be merged.
WITH cte
AS (SELECT *,
COUNT(HEYNo) OVER (
PARTITION BY Forename, Surname,
DOB
[code]...
--- this bit below is simply showing all instances where the above criteria is met and there are more then one instances.WHERE countOfHeyNo > 1
--- The final output display all patient identifiable information from the MF_PATIENT table so that the report can be created in SSRS and run routinely by the Data Quality Team who can then investigate each occurance.

I have a transactions table that stores prices for products bought and sold.
If I want average buying prices I use:
SELECT AVG(price), product FROM transactions WHERE transactiontype=1 GROUP BY product
and for selling prices:
SELECT AVG(price), product FROM transactions WHERE transactiontype=2 GROUP BY product
Is there a way to combine this into one SQL query, to create one bindable dataset ?

These similar queries do much the same thing: the first one gets a list of ticket ID's that have been bought as 'standalone' tickets by a particular user, along with the total quantity they purchased. The second one also gets a list of ticket ID's along with the quantity purchased by that user, but the list of ID's is driven by tickets that appear in their basket as part of packages, instead of standalone tickets.
I hope that's clear; if not, maybe the SQL will make it clearer:
SELECT
[tblTickets].[id] AS TicketId,
SUM([tblBasket].[ticket_quantity]) AS SingleTicketsTotal
FROM
[tblOrders]
INNER JOIN [tblBasket] ON [tblBasket].[order_id] = [tblOrders].[id]
INNER JOIN [tblTickets] ON [tblTickets].[id] = [tblBasket].[ticket_id]
WHERE [tblOrders].[id] IN (SELECT [id] FROM [tblOrders] WHERE [tblOrders].[user_id] = @userID AND ([tblOrders].[order_status]=@purchasedOrder OR [tblOrders].[id]=@currentSessionOrder))
GROUP BY [tblTickets].[id]
SELECT
[tblCombinations_Tickets].[ticket_id] AS cTicketId,
SUM([tblBasket].[ticket_quantity]*[tblCombinations_Tickets].[quantity]) AS PackageTicketsTotal
FROM
[tblOrders]
INNER JOIN [tblBasket] ON [tblBasket].[order_id] = [tblOrders].[id]
INNER JOIN [tblCombinations_Tickets] ON [tblCombinations_Tickets].[combination_id] = [tblBasket].[combination_id]
WHERE [tblOrders].[id] IN (SELECT [id] FROM [tblOrders] WHERE [tblOrders].[user_id] = @userID AND ([tblOrders].[order_status]=@purchasedOrder OR [tblOrders].[id]=@currentSessionOrder))
GROUP BY [tblCombinations_Tickets].[ticket_id]
I need to combine these. So that I get one result set with: ticketID, quantity bought as standalone, quantity bought as part of package.
I can't figure it out. I've tried inner joins, outer joins, left joins, right joins, nested subqueries and, briefly, banging on the screen. But every time, what happens is that I only get the rows where the ticket ID occurs in both queries. I need everything.
This has got to be laughably simple. But I'm stuck :( Can anyone help?

I need to combine two queries into one.
Query 1 (main query)
SELECT dbo.Job.CompanyJobId, dbo.Job.Name, dbo.Job.Name, dbo.Job.ChangeDate,
dbo.Job.Active,
sum(case dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId WHEN 'MA' then dbo.ProductionEvent.AlternateQuantity ELSE 0 END) AS material,
sum(case dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId WHEN 'PR' THEN dbo.ProductionEvent.Quantity ELSE 0 END) AS production
FROM dbo.job
left outer join dbo.Event ON dbo.Job.JobGuid = dbo.Event.JobGuid
left outer join dbo.ProductionEvent on Event.EventGuid = dbo.ProductionEvent.EventGuid
left outer join dbo.Product ON dbo.ProductionEvent.ProductGuid = dbo.Product.ProductGuid
left outer JOIN dbo.Item ON Event.ItemGuid = dbo.Item.ItemGuid
inner join dbo.Source ON dbo.ProductionEvent.SourceGuid = dbo.Source.SourceGuid
inner JOIN dbo.SourceType ON dbo.Source.SourceTypeGuid = dbo.SourceType.SourceTypeGuid
left OUTER JOIN dbo.Region ON dbo.Job.RegionGuid = dbo.Region.RegionGuid
WHERE dbo.Job.CompanyJobId = 3505048
and(dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId = 'PR' or dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId = 'MA')
GROUP BY dbo.Job.CompanyJobId, dbo.job.name, dbo.Job.ChangeDate, dbo.job.Name, dbo.Job.Active
Result
3505048
SR 434 T-5201SR 434 T-5201
2007-10-11 16:36:45.647
Y
1314.26 (material qty)
1569.26 (production qty)
(where 1314.26 is sum material and 1569.26 is production)
Query 2
selectsum(EmployeeLaborEvent.Hours) as hours
fromdbo.job
left outer join dbo.Event ON dbo.Job.JobGuid = Event.JobGuid
Left outer join dbo.EmployeeLaborEvent ON Event.EventGuid = dbo.Employeelaborevent.EventGuid
WHERE dbo.Job.CompanyJobId = 3505048
Result:
1647.50 (which are sum of hours, this figure is correct)
Now I try to merge query 2 into Query 1 like this:
SELECT dbo.Job.CompanyJobId, dbo.Job.Name, dbo.Job.Name, dbo.Job.ChangeDate,
dbo.Job.Active,
sum(case dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId WHEN 'MA' then dbo.ProductionEvent.AlternateQuantity ELSE 0 END) AS material,
sum(case dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId WHEN 'PR' THEN dbo.ProductionEvent.Quantity ELSE 0 END) AS production,
sum(EmployeeLaborEvent.Hours) as hours
FROM dbo.job
left outer join dbo.Event ON dbo.Job.JobGuid = dbo.Event.JobGuid
left outer join dbo.ProductionEvent on Event.EventGuid = dbo.ProductionEvent.EventGuid
left outer join dbo.Product ON dbo.ProductionEvent.ProductGuid = dbo.Product.ProductGuid
left outer JOIN dbo.Item ON Event.ItemGuid = dbo.Item.ItemGuid
inner join dbo.Source ON dbo.ProductionEvent.SourceGuid = dbo.Source.SourceGuid
inner JOIN dbo.SourceType ON dbo.Source.SourceTypeGuid = dbo.SourceType.SourceTypeGuid
left OUTER JOIN dbo.Region ON dbo.Job.RegionGuid = dbo.Region.RegionGuid
left outer join dbo.EmployeeLaborEvent ON Event.EventGuid = dbo.Employeelaborevent.EventGuid
WHERE dbo.Job.CompanyJobId = 3505048
and(dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId = 'PR' or dbo.SourceType.CompanySourceTypeId = 'MA')
GROUP BY dbo.Job.CompanyJobId, dbo.job.name, dbo.Job.ChangeDate, dbo.job.Name, dbo.Job.Active
When I run the query the result is:
3505048
SR 434 T-5201SR 434 T-5201
2007-10-11 16:36:45.647
Y
1314.26(material)
1569.26 (production)
NULL (hours)
The material and production stay the same (and is correct). Hours are wrong.
Any clues? Thank you.

Hi All,I have a problem with a table that I want to get nice data out of in asingle query. The guys here reckon it can't be done in a single querybut I wanted to prove them wrong !! Essentially, I want to get the samecolumn out of the single table, but in one case the column must have awhere clause associated with it, and the other case it does not have awhere clause...Lets say have a table like this :-date || user || transaction type || Amountso, each row contains a transaction type, and a corresponding amountfor this transaction.There can be any number of transactions (and transaction types) peruser per day.Here is what I want :I want to get one particular transaction type as a percentage of thetotal transactions : for example, a list of the % amount that Debittransactions have occurred for a user for a day, with respect to alltransactions that the user has done that day, so :Debits Jim performed on day 1 are 50% of all transactions he performedDebits Jim performed on day 2 are 55% of all transactions he performed... and so on.At the moment, I do this :select date, user, sum(amount) as debit_Amount where transaction_type='debit'group by date, userand dump that into tmp table Debitsthen I doselect date, user, sum(amount) as total_Amountgroup by date, userand dump this into tmp table Totalsand then I have to do a :SELECT Debits.User, (Debits.debit_Amount / Totals.total_Amount) asperc_Debit , Debits.dateFROM Debits, TotalsWHERE Debits.date = Totals.date AND Debits.User = Totals.UserCan anyone suggest a way of doing this without the need for thesetemporary tables???Thanks!

I have created a search interface for a large table and I allow users to search on keywords. The users can enter multiple keywords and I build a SQL based on their input to search a full-text indexed table. However the users want to be able to search like an old system they had, where they enter single words and then combine their searches to drill-down into the results. What would be the best method to combine searches?At the moment I can create a merged query from 2 queries if they have searched using single words, but I know down the line it will get far more complicated if they keep combining and merging even with multiple word entries. Each time they search I store the 'where' section of each query, then if they choose to combine I have a function to build a new query through arrays (to eliminate duplicates and sort etc)Is there a better way in SQL to combine queries as sometimes the logic of the combined query means no results are returned (because of OR/ AND conditions in the wrong places etc)e.g.1. Select count(ID) as myCount FROM myTable where (CONTAINS(title,'"run"') OR CONTAINS(subject,'"run"'))2. Select count(ID) as myCount FROM myTable where (CONTAINS(title,'"level"') OR CONTAINS(subject,'"level"'))Combined using my function creates:Select count(ID) as myCount FROM myTable where (contains(title,'"level"') AND contains(title,'"run"')) OR (contains(subject,'"level"') AND contains(subject,'"run"'))
When I combine I'm drilling down, so if the first query returns a count of 400 (where the title OR subject contains 'run') and then the second query returns 600 records (where the title OR subject contains 'level') I need to combine so that I'm looking for records where the title contains both keywords 'run' AND 'level' OR else the subject contains both 'run' AND 'level' and I end up with say 50 records where the title has both keywords OR the subject holds both words. I think the main trouble lies if they try combine a previously combines search with a new search. here my logic gets totally thrown and I'm not sure how to handle soemthing like this. Has anyone got any ideas or experience with this kind of functionality? In SQL or even in vb.net is there a method to combine searches easily?

I have two queries that I'm trying to combine, but can't figure out how to combine them ... successfully!?! The first query is pretty simple in that I'm looking at several fields from two different tables, no big deal.
The second query calculates the years, months, days between two dates that are used in the first query. I'm stumped on how to combine the queries so that they place nice with each other and return results.
I will post my feable attempt at merging them. No matter how I order the code, I continue to get the same error, pertaining to the last line of code ... Line 73: Incorrect syntax near 'vpi'.

I have 3 queries pulling from the same table, trying to define a count on each criteria. I have the data pulling, but the data is in multiple rows. I want the data in one row with all the counts in each separate columns. Also I need to setup a flag if a client purchased and order within 30 days from their last purchase.
I am doing this select for each credit card, check and cash purchases. I do not know how to setup a flag where the client may have ordered and paid by check or cash after 30 days from a credit card purchase. Is this something that can be done?
select
clientnumber,count(distinct clientnumber) as cccnt,
0 as ckcnt, 0 as cacnt
from dbo.purchases
where orderdate >= 20120101 and orderdate <= 20121231 and
payment_type = 'CC'
group by clientnumber;
OUTPUT currently looks like this:
1234 2 0 0
1234 0 1 0
1234 0 0 4
Is it possible to result in this, along with a flag with the criteria above?:
1234 2 1 4 Y

Customers order a product and enter in a source code (sourceCd). This sourceCd is tied to a marketing program. Idea being we can see that 100 customers ordered from this promo, 200 from this catalog, etc etc. The sourceCd that a customer enters is not always accurate so there is a magic process that adjusts this OrigSourceCd into a final SourceCd, that may or may not be the same.
I am trying to generate a result set of customer count by sales program based on both the original and final source code. Problem is, I have to do each query separately because in one, I have to join SourceCdKey to SourceCdKey to get the program associated with that SourceCd and in the other i have to join OrigSourceCdKey to SourceCdKey to get the program associated with the original sourceCd. There are some programs is one results set that are not in the other, and vice versa.
I'm trying to generate a list of that shows customer counts before and after for each program, some which may be null for one, but have counts for the other. I have tries creating 2 separating views and joining them but that doesn't work because it only returns the ones they have in common.

I'm having difficulty coming up with the right syntax for a query. Suppose I have a database containing a Stores table, an ProductInventory table, and a Customers table. The Stores table has an ID field that serves as a foreign key in both the ProductInventory table and in the Customers table. I'm trying to write a query that, for each Store record, will return the total number of records in the ProductInventory table and the total number of records in the Customers table.
The following query returns, for each store, the total number of records in the ProductInventory table:
SELECT Stores.Name,
COUNT(ProductInventory.ID) AS ProductInventoryItemCount
FROM Stores
LEFT JOIN ProductInventory ON Stores.ID = ProductInventory.StoreID
GROUP BY Stores.Name
The following query returns, for each store, the total number of records in the Customers table:
SELECT Stores.Name,
COUNT(Customers.ID) AS CustomerCount
FROM Stores
LEFT JOIN ProductInventory ON Stores.ID = Customers.StoreID
GROUP BY Stores.Name
I combined the two queries:
SELECT Stores.Name,
COUNT(ProductInventory.ID) AS ProductInventoryItemCount,
COUNT(Customers.ID) AS CustomerCount
FROM Stores
LEFT JOIN ProductInventory ON Stores.ID = ProductInventory.StoreID
LEFT JOIN Customers ON Stores.ID = Customers.StoreID
GROUP BY Stores.Name
When I run this last query, however, I get an "Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int" error. Using COUNT_BIG instead of COUNT eliminates the error, but the numbers that are generated are astronomical in size. This indicates to me that there is a *lot* more table joining going on than I expected
What is the correct syntax to produce the desired results? I have a few other tables similar to ProductInventory and Customers; I'm hoping to extend the correct syntax so as to be able to get a comprehensive record count list for each store. Thanks for your help!

I have two databases that each contain the same tables, but different data in the tables. For example, each data contains a table with the same name, arcus, that holds data on our customers. Although the data is different in each table, there is some overlap, particularly in the area of customer number since that is assigned automatically when a customer is entered and serves as the primary key for that table.
To consolidate, I need to merge the two databases. How can I import the data from one table in second database into a table in the first database and append a number to the customer number so that all data will be brought across.
To better illustrate:
database one has an arcus file with a field cusno and contains cusno 1-50
database two has an arcus file with a field cusno and contains cusno 27-58
The overlapping cusno's are not the same customer.
How can I get all the cusno from the arcus file in database two to the arcus file in database one?
Is this even possible?

Hi.I'm currently working on a project which involves the creation of aweb page which reports selected data to customers from two back-endsystems. I use ASP script language on IIS, the server is MS SQL 2000.Now I'm struggling with combining two tables from the differentdatabases. I'm sure it's simple enough, but I'm a little short on theSQL expertise.I've got two databases, db1 and db2, and then two tables, db1.t1 anddb2.t2. I need to combine these two tables (both tables have amatching key field) to make a list of all items from db1.t1, and thosewho correspond from db2.t2.I can list all items from db1.t1, but I can't seem to get the db2.t2joined in.Can anybody help me with the syntax for this, please ?

I have very limited knowledge of sql server so my question is probably very basic. I have 3 database types with 3 different scripts to create these databases. The 3 applications that use these databases are very similar.
How do I create 1 master database that all 3 applications can use?
I've tried on SQL 2000 to run the first script then second & third but it did not seem to work.
Once I have the master database created, how do I create the 1 master script? Is it easier to create the database & script it or to copy & paste sections from the 3 scripts?
Any help would be appreciated.
Here are the 3 scripts:

Currently we have one customer database containing various tables. As part of requirements for a new client, we need to manage their data in a totally separate database. The tables and structure are exactly the same but we would be loading data into a separate database.
I am looking for a way to combine tables with the same name in each database when I run queries, rather than having to query each database separately. Currently we actually have many queries set up in MS Access which use an ODBC link to query the data off SQL server. I am aware it is possible to apply a UNION SELECT in Access from 2 separate ODBC connections, but this is extremely slow.So my initial question is - is there a way to provide access to the tables from both databases over the same ODBC link? If this cannot be done over ODBC I guess we can consider more "modern" methods, but ideally we want to keep this in MS Access as that is where our existing queries are based. I was hoping that some kind of view can be treated as an ODBC connection.I mentioned ideally we want to keep the reporting queries in MS Access.

I have a situation where I need to do some reporting for simular asset records but the data is listed on different database from the same server.
I was curious as to the way to write the queries that I will need.
Lets say I have 3 databases and I am looking for a asset of some type and the ID is a serial number.
The serial will be on the main table from each database. Is there a way I can set a relation from a view between these records?
I.E.:
1: Database A -DSNA_tblMaiin - Serialnumber
2: Database B -DSNB_tblMaiin - Serialnumber
3: Database C -DSNC_tblMaiin - Serialnumber
I believe that this is a dot notation question.
Thanks in advance,
Gene

Hello,
I have a problem. I suspect a certain user in my company is using the SA account to log into Databases and run queries(query analyzer) to gather information this user is not suppose to view. The problem I have is this is an IT person so they know the SA password. How can I log specific or all queries run against all databases/tables/fields to find out exactly what this person is doing/seeing? Or if there is an alternative to find out this information?
Please advise?

Hi there,
I am trying to link one sql server to other sql server(version 7.0). I was able to link server1 to server2 by creating an odbc source and am able to see the tablenames when i click on the linked server tables.
My problem is..when i am trying to query on these tables its giving me error saying "OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' does not contain table xxxxxx"
i am using select * from servername.tablename.dbo.tablename.
Any help on this will be appreciated.

Is there a way that I can prevent people from running
pass through queries on my SQL Server - without
removing linked server access? I simply want to make
sure that the processing occurs on the clients machine,
not on my server....
Thanks!

Ok, this is a little convoluted so bear with me.
I have a SQL 2000 SP4 box on Windows 2000 Server with the Oracle 11g Client installed.
I've created a linked server to an Oracle database that lives offsite (sites connected with a fairly high speed VPN link).
There's a view on the Oracle database I'm trying to access through the linked server using the four-part naming convention*.
If I execute a fairly simple query against that view, the query runs until it eventually times out two hours later. And by simple, I mean something like this:
select * from CGN_LMS..CGNLMS.V_PRODUCTION_SUM where FISCAL_PERIOD = 200803
That happens if I use the OLE DB provider from Oracle or the one from MS.
Now, if I run the same type of query against that Oracle DB from Excel or Access (using the ODBC driver), the query will complete in seconds, returning about 800 rows of data.
For fun, I created a blank Access database with one linked table that points to that V_PRODUCTION_SUM view on the Oracle database, and one Query within that Access database that SELECTs * FROM the linked table WHERE FISCAL_PERIOD=200803.
I then created a linked server on my SQL 2000 server that points to the Access database. Now, if I hit that saved Access query through the SQL 2000 linked server, it also returns the results in about 9 seconds. If I query the linked table in the Access database and specify WHERE FISCAL_PERIOD = 200803, it completes in about 6-8 minutes.
So I guess my question is... WTF?
How is it that this:
SQL 2000 ->OLE DB provider-> Oracle
Times out after 2 hours, while this:
SQL 2000 -> Jet driver-> Access -> ODBC driver -> Oracle
returns all my results in seconds/minutes?
Couple other side notes...
A lot of the queries that I test with using this linked server work just fine. In fact, with this particular query, if I were to just pull SELECT TOP 800 * with no WHERE clause, the query would run rather quickly (like in 4 seconds).
Also, if I use OpenQuery instead of the 4-part linked server name, the queries return results as quickly as I'd hope. That might work as a last resort, but we have existing applications that use the 4-part names already and we'd rather not have to suss out and change all those if we don't have to.
Any help or insight would definitely be appreciated.

Hello,
I am new in SSIS.
I am using an OLEDB source and setted as SQL Command.
The Query is a JOIN between different databases.
How can I make the QUERY with different source (different databases or SQL Servers)?
I mean, any solution is OK, the important is to make queries against different databases with SSIS.
Thank

I am trying to perform a distributed query however have a situation I haven't dealt with before the linked server I add to do the query is a named instance (DVD_NASDOMINO). How would I specify this in a query as in the FROM part in a sql statement. I tried the obvious DVD_NASDOMINO.qlsdat.dbo.stmenqry and DVD_NAS.DOMINO.qlsdat.dbo.stmenqry.
Both returned errors in the query.
Thanks for the help.
