I am trying to find a solution in order to make a pivot dynamically. One of my department charge every month all the sales figure in one table and I need to pick up the last two months archived in order to make a pivot and to see if something is changed or not. What I am trying to do is to have these last two months dynamically. create table forum (customer varchar (50), nmonth varchar(6), tot int, archived datetime)
insert into forum values ('Pepsi','201503',100,'2015-04-28'),
('Pepsi','201504',200,'2015-04-28'),
('Texaco','201503',600,'2015-04-28'),
('Texaco','201504',300,'2015-04-28'),
[code]...
As you can see I have to change manually the values underlined every months but it's a temporary solution. How can I set up the last two months in a dynamic way?

I'm asking my previous question in this new thread with more specific data and condition.I have below sample data,
DECLARE @DATA TABLE (U_ID INT, U_NM NVARCHAR(20), U_DT DATE, U_ORD INT, P_U_NM NVARCHAR(20) NULL)
INSERT INTO @DATA VALUES (1, 'Design', '06/15/2015', 2, NULL), (1, 'Plan', '07/01/2015', 1, NULL), (1, 'Cust Plan 1', '06/10/2015', 0, 'Plan'), (1, 'Cust Plan 2', '06/05/2015', 0, 'Plan'),
(2, 'Design', '06/25/2015', 2, NULL), (2, 'Plan', '06/20/2015', 1, NULL)
We have 2 different U_ID (1, 2) and I want a SELECT query to display,
1. For U_ID = 1, we have 2 parent U_NM (Design & Plan) and Plan having 2 child (Cust Plan 1 & Cust Plan 2).
2. I want to display parent U_NM ORDER BY U_ORD
3. If any parent having child element, then need to show immediately under that parent and ORDER BY U_DT
4. For U_ID = 2, we don't have any child, hence display ORDER BY U_ORD

In SQL 2012.A query that joins 2 table, with order by clause doesn't get sorted and the result set is not ordered. This happens when some of the columns in the where criteria are in a unique index which is the index that is used for the join between the 2 tables, and all the columns in the unique index are in the where criteria.In the query plan there is no component for sort.The work around was to drop the unique index, or change it to a non-unique index. Once this was done, the execution plan was changed to add the sort component (even when the index was changed to non-unique and the join was still using this index).

writing the query for the following, I need to collapse the continuity. If the termdate for an ID is one day less than the effdate of the next id (for the same ID) i need to collapse the records. See below example .....how should i write the query which will give me the desired output. i.e., get min(effdate) and max(termdate) if termdate is one day less than the effdate of next record.

I have created view by jaoining two table and have order by clause.
The sql generated is as follows
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.UWYearDetail.*, dbo.UWYearGroup.*
FROM dbo.UWYearDetail INNER JOIN
dbo.UWYearGroup ON dbo.UWYearDetail.UWYearGroupId = dbo.UWYearGroup.UWYearGroupId
ORDER BY dbo.UWYearDetail.PlanVersionId, dbo.UWYearGroup.UWFinancialPlanSegmentId, dbo.UWYearGroup.UWYear, dbo.UWYearGroup.MandDFlag,
dbo.UWYearGroup.EarningsMethod, dbo.UWYearGroup.EffectiveMonth
If I run sql the results are displayed in proper order but the view only order by first item in order by clause.
Has somebody experience same thing? How to fix this issue?

I am getting the resultset sorted differently if I use a column number in the ORDER BY clause instead of a column name.
Product: Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition
Version: 9.00.1399.06
Server Collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
for example,
create table test_sort
( description varchar(75) );
insert into test_sort values('Non-A');
insert into test_sort values('Non-O');
insert into test_sort values('Noni');
insert into test_sort values('Nons');
then execute the following selects:
select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( 1 as nvarchar(75));
select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( description as nvarchar(75));
Resultset1
----------
Non-A
Non-O
Noni
Nons
Resultset2
----------
Non-A
Noni
Non-O
Nons
Any ideas?

I have a quite big SQL query which would be nice to be used using UNION betweern two Select and Where clauses. I noticed that if both Select clauses have Where part between UNION other is ignored. How can I prevent this?
I found a article in StackOverflow saying that if UNION has e.g. two Selects with Where conditions other one will not work. [URL] ....
I have installed SQL Server 2014 and I tried to use tricks mentioned in StackOverflow's article but couldn't succeeded.
Any example how to write two Selects with own Where clauses and those Selects are joined with UNION?

where r.[Date Time] >= '2015-01-01 00:0:00.000';
number of rows of budget is around 800000 and vente around 350+millions rows . I create index vente([Date

Site], [Code Rayon], Date Time]).
But the query took days running .
t.[Code
Rayon] is an int type t.[Date
Time] is a date type r.[Date
Time] is datetime type
Is there a way to make clause On sargable ?

hi,I was pulling up a report in SQL, and I wanted the records to be ordered by dates descending. However, I found this ordering was only fine enough to order records by dates (not hours or minutes) (within the same date, records were ordered so that the latest entered were at the bottom). I wonder if anyone else has encouted this problem before, or I am doing something wrong.Thanks very much.

If we use: select * from ..... , normally, it will return an ordered result ( may be order by ID ), but how can we make an random order select statement. It mean every time we run the query, the result will be different from the other ?

Can you explain the below scenario
The ORDER BY clause can include items that do not appear in the select list. However, if SELECT DISTINCT is specified, or if the statement contains a GROUP BY clause, or if the SELECT statement contains a UNION operator, the sort columns must appear in the select list.
what is the reason behind this.

Hello,Ive got a column which stores integers ranging from 0-200. I need to order them so that 1 is first, and 0 is last like 1,2,2,3,4,6,8....98....0,0,0My Order By clause statement looks like 'ORDER BY column_name', but obviously this will put the '0' records at the top. Is there a way around this?Thanks, Curt.

Hi! I think the order by clause is driving me crazy.The following T-SQL query works: SELECT
count(*) AS c
From F_POST
Where id=@id
Order by c Ok, so far so good, but in the following case it is NOT possible to order the result set according to "count(*)": Select
T_Date AS TDATE,
count(*) AS c
From F_Post
Where id=@id
Order By case when @OrderBy = 1 then c
elseT_DATE DESC This is just strange since it is essentially the same query!? Furthermore, it seems to be inpossible to have a order-by-clause that looks like: Order By case when @OrderBy = 1 then T_Column1 ASC
elseT_Column2 DESC
Does anyone know how I can implement querys that do (almost) exactly this what the last 2 querys "should" to do?

like so often my Forums database design (in its simplest form) is:Forums -ForumID -Title -CategoryForumsMsgs -fmID -DateIn -AuthorID -MessageI need to create a sql query which returns all forum titles along with some data for 1) the first message entry (date created and author) and 2) the last one. So how can I do a JOIN query which joins with a ORDER BY clause so that the top/bottom entry only is joined from the messages table?

When 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.

I'm using a Case statement to change an Order By clause on the fly, eg
ORDER BY case when @SortBy = 1 then s.ITEM_NAME
when @SortBy = 2 then s.ITEM_ID
when @SortBy = 3 then s.ITEM_SIZE
end
The numeric columns work fine but when @SortBy = 1, I get the following message when I try to run the sp:
Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Procedure usp_CML_SAO_RptPresLvl, Line 95
Error converting data type varchar to numeric.
ITEM_NAME is a varchar(40) containing alphanumeric characters; ITEM_ID is a numeric(8,0) & ITEM_SIZE is a varchar(5) containing numeric characters.
Is there some rule preventing me to dynamically change the Order By if using a alphanumeric characters?
Thanks for any help you can offer

I am trying to pass as an input parameter a user selected order by clause, and instead of repeating the SQL statement with a new Order By based on the parameter, I want to set the Order by using this parameter. I can't get it to work.
Here is the statement:
Create Procedure sp_InfoDump
(
@StartDate varchar(12),
@EndDate varchar(12),
@OrderBy varchar(50)
)
As
/* Local variables */
DECLARE @MinDate datetime, @MaxDate datetime
IF @StartDate = 'ALL DATES'
BEGIN
SELECT @MinDate = Min(AccessTime)
FROM tblAudit
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT @MinDate = @StartDate
END
IF @EndDate = 'ALL DATES'
BEGIN
SELECT @MaxDate = Max(AccessTime)
FROM tblAudit
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT @MaxDate = @StartDate
END
BEGIN
SELECT tblReports.ReportName, tblReports.ReportCode,
tblAudit.BadAttempts, tblAudit.LogonUser, tblAudit.AccessTime,
tblAudit.RemoteHost, tblAudit.RemoteIdent, tblAudit.ExitTime,
tblAudit.BrowserType, tblAudit.Access_ID, TotalTime=DateDiff(Minute,tblAudit.AccessTime,tblA udit.ExitTime)

tblReportsAccess ON
tblReports.Report_ID = tblReportsAccess.Report_ID

I have a query that returns several ordered rows where one of the fields in the ORDER BY clause is a date field (DueDate) that we use to see the most pressing deadline first. The problem is that the default value in that field (which other code translates to mean no due date) is 1/1/1900. That means that items with no due date show up before today's import deadline. I can see one potential solution where I join my results on the original table where DueDate>1/1/1900 and then back to my results so I can use an ISNULL() on the field to set a value in the future (like 1/1/9999), but that seems like a really nasty wrong round-about way to do it. I think there has to be something better.

Hi,
I'm currently have a problem with a query using a top clause. When I run it by itself as a single query, I have no problems and the results are valid. However, if I try duplicate the query after a union clause, the order by ... desc doesn't order properly.
The following is the query I'm using along with the results. Then I'll have the query I was trying to unite and the results (date ranges selected were the same in both):
QUERY 1
select top 1 (s.ldate), v.mdtid, po.odometer, pi.odometer, (pi.odometer-po.odometer) as 'Total Miles'
from EventStrings ES
JOIN schedules s
ON ES.SchId=S.SchId
JOIN vehicles v
ON v.vehicleid=es.vehicleid
JOIN Events PO
ON PO.schid=es.schid
AND PO.EvStrId=ES.EvStrId
AND po.activity=4
JOIN Events PI
ON PI.schid=es.schid
AND PI.EvStrId=ES.EvStrId
AND pi.activity=3
WHERE es.providerid in (0,1,4)
and s.ldate>=?
and s.ldate<=?
and v.mdtid=20411
order by s.ldate desc
RESULTS 1
DATE MDT IDPU Odometer DO Odometer Total Miles
12/6/2007 2041112810.6 12874.5 63.9
QUERY 2 (with Union)
select top 1 (s.ldate), v.mdtid, po.odometer, pi.odometer, (pi.odometer-po.odometer) as 'Total Miles'
from EventStrings ES
JOIN schedules s
ON ES.SchId=S.SchId
JOIN vehicles v
ON v.vehicleid=es.vehicleid
JOIN Events PO
ON PO.schid=es.schid
AND PO.EvStrId=ES.EvStrId
AND po.activity=4
JOIN Events PI
ON PI.schid=es.schid
AND PI.EvStrId=ES.EvStrId
AND pi.activity=3
WHERE es.providerid in (0,1,4)
and s.ldate>=[From Date,Date]
and s.ldate<=[To Date,Date]
and v.mdtid=20411
Union
select top 1 (s.ldate), v.mdtid, po.odometer, pi.odometer, (pi.odometer-po.odometer) as 'Total Miles'
from EventStrings ES
JOIN schedules s
ON ES.SchId=S.SchId

As you can see, the results are sorted very differently. Is there any way to have the order by apply to both queries?
Thanks!

For my reports I have a Sort By parameter which has 2 values - Customer Name & Customer Number. for my dataset I have added @SortBy as parameter and assigned the value = Parameter!SortBy.value.
In the query I want to set the Order By clause based on the user selection. eg.:
select * from dbo.customers where name = @CustomerName order by @SortBy
However, I am unable to do this. I always get an exception for the order by clause no mater what. I have also tried the following queries in the query designer for the dataset customers but none of them work
="select * from dbo.customers where name " + @CustomerName + " order by " + @SortBy
select * from dbo.customers where name = @CustomerName order by + @SortBy
I know that I can set the interactive sort on the column headers and the interactive sort works, but the customer wants to have the ability to set the Sort By using the dropdown list.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I am getting a wierd error while using order by in the over clause. Consider the following query:
select count (*) over (order by STD_CLL_CNTR_KEY) as cnt
from FCT_CLL_CS_DTLS
The error reported is :
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'order'.
But at the same time this particular query seems to be working fine:
select rank () over (order by STD_CLL_CNTR_KEY) as cnt
from FCT_CLL_CS_DTLS
Am I missing something fundamental or is there a bigger issue.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Emil

I have just transferred my site to a new server with SBS R2 Premium, so the site's database changed from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. I find that searches are now returning results in random order, even though they use a view with an Order By clause to force the order I want.
I find that the results are unordered when I test the view with Management Studio, so the issue is unrelated to my VB/ASP Net code.
Using my SQL update tool (SQL Compare, from Redgate) I find that there are no differences in the views, or the underlying tables.
Using Management Studio to test a number of views, I find that I have a general problem with all views. For example, one of the simpler views is simply a selection of fields from one table, with an Order By clause on the tables primary key: - SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT GDQid, GDQUser, GDQGED, GDQOption, gdqTotalLines, GDQTotalIndi, GDQRestart, GDQCheckpointMessage, GDQStarted, GDQFinished, gdqCheckpointRecordCountr FROM dbo.GEDQueue ORDER BY GDQid DESC
If I right-click the view (from Management Studio's Object Explorer pane), select Design from the menu to show the view's design, and then click the Execute SQL icon, the view's results are displayed perfectly, in descending order of GDQid. However, if I select "Open View" the view's results are displayed out of order.
When I do this with the SQL 2000 database, both Design/Execute and Open View correctly display the data in the correct order.
Is there something that I should check in the SQL 2005 installation - some option that has been set incorrectly?
Regards, Robert Barnes
