Transact SQL :: Only Allow Certain Values In A Field

Nov 16, 2015

I can not modify DDL of the table, so creating a trigger etc is not an option.  This is my syntax that I am using, and each #Testing.abcd has different possible options.  

For example, when #Testing.abcd = Test1 then #Data.field2
okay values are 'Yes', 'No', 'Maybe', but for #Testing.abcd = Test3 then #Data.field2 okay values are 'Follow-Up', 'Contact Requested'

How can I set-up "acceptable values" for one field, but different based off abcd in my syntax?

Declare abcd varchar(100), @sql varchar(1000)
Create Table #Testing (abcd varchar(100), efgh varchar(500)
Insert Into #Testing Values
('Test1', 'zzz'),
('Test2', 'xxx'),

[Code] ....

Transact SQL :: How To Get All Distinct Values From 10 Different Tables That Exist In The Field

Aug 19, 2015

I need to get all distinct values from 10 different tables that exist in the field [favoritesport]  And each table holds close to 50K records so I am looking at 500,000 records to get distinct values for.  Would the fastest, less intrusive way of achieving this be to just create a UNION ALL so run 

Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table1
Union
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table2
Union
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table3
etc etc etc

Conditionalize Field Values Based On Other Field Values

Apr 17, 2007

Here's a portion of the current statement.

UPDATE EngagementAuditAreas

SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,

numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,

numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,

numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,

numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,

bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bControlRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = 0,

bCommentsIsAffirmed = 0

FROM EngagementAuditAreas WITH(NOLOCK) ...

And what I need is to conditionalize the values of the "IsAffirmed" fields by looking at their corresponding "num" fields. Something like this (which doesn't work).

UPDATE EngagementAuditAreas

SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,

numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,

numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,

numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,

numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,

bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = (numInherentRiskID IS NULL),

bControlRiskIsAffirmed = (numControlRiskID IS NULL),

bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = (numCombinedRiskID IS NULL),

bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = (numApproachTypeID IS NULL),

bCommentsIsAffirmed = (parent.txtComments IS NULL)

FROM EngagementAuditAreas WITH(NOLOCK)

Thanks.

Transact SQL :: Convert Comma Separated String Values Into Integer Values

Jul 28, 2015

I have a string variable

string str1="1,2,3,4,5";

I have to use the above comma separated values into a SQL Search query whose datatype is integer. How would i do this Search query in the IN Operator of SQL Server. My query is :

declare @id varchar(50)
set @id= '3,4,6,7'
set @id=(select replace(@id,'''',''))-- in below select query Id is of Integer datatype
select *from ehsservice where id in(@id)

But this query throws following error message:

Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '3,4,6,7' to data type int.

Transact SQL :: NVARCHAR Field Getting Truncated After Increasing Field Length?

Aug 28, 2015

I have a very strange situation. I've increased the size of an NVARCHAR field from 8 to 9 in a database table. The format of the data that I enter will either be an 8 character field (123456-8) or a 9 character field (1234567-9). The '-' is critical.

It used to only accept the 8 character version, but after increasing the field size, if I try to insert the 9 character field version, it gets truncated after the '-', as though it's still only allowing 8 characters. But that only occurs when I include the '-' or other such characters like '#'. If I try to insert 1234567a9, it works. The following explains the outcomes:

Inserted Value -> Result in table

123456-8 -> 123456-8      *Correct
1234567-9 -> 1234567-     *Wrong
123456789 -> 123456789    *Correct
1234567#9 -> 1234567#     *Wrong
1234567a9 -> 1234567a9    *Correct

Why is it that characters such as '-' and '#' are truncating the value, but only if the string is 9 chars long?

I'm currently using a direct t-sql insert statement in SQLExpress. The field is a simple NVARCHAR(9) field.

Transact SQL :: CTE To Peg Char Values To Int Values In Radio-style Chart

Aug 26, 2015

I developed the following T-SQL query that runs successfully, but I was looking for a more efficient and concise way to do this. Is there a CTE that can replace all of these case statements?  I've updated my query as below. Although this sample query works, it's not working for my real data.  Instead, I get an error.  At the bottom is the error part of my real query.I copied all of the tables from the first query block below.  But when I wrote the bottom query block, it underlined in red the words "answer" and "question."  It says "Invalid column name". 

if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#hard_values')
) DROP TABLE #hard_values;
if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#dummy_data')
) DROP TABLE #dummy_data;
if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#temp')

Transact SQL :: Convert Certain Row Values To Next Column Values

Jul 9, 2015

I have a table with 2 columns and my source data looks like this..

PolicyNum   InsCode    

1ABC12          1001        
1ABC12          1002        
1ABC12          1003       
1ABC12          1004       
1ABC12          1005        

[Code] ....

My output should look like this..I need T-sql to get below output.

PolicyNum   InsCode1   InsCode2    

1ABC12             1001       1005       
1ABC12             1002       1006        
1ABC12             1003       1004       
1ABC20             1001       1005        

[Code] ...

Basically it's converting certain row values to new column. Every PloicyNum will have 1001 to 1006 Fixed InsCode values as a group.

Rule-1: InsCode value 1001 should always mapped to 1005   
            InsCode value 1002 should always mapped to 1006
            InsCode value 1003 should always mapped to 1004 

Rule-2: For a policyNum, If any Inscode value is missed from the group values 1001 to 1006, still need to mapped with corresponding values as shown in Rule-1

In the above sample data..

for PolicyNum - 1ABC20 , group values 1003,1006 are missing
for PolicyNum - 1ABC25 , group values 1002,1003,1004,1005,1006 are missing

Create Table sampleDate (PolicyNum varchar(10) not null, InsCode Varchar(4) not null)
Insert into Sample Date(PolicyNum, InsCode) Values ('1ABC12','1001')        

Insert into Sample Date(PolicyNum, InsCode) Values ('1ABC12','1002')       
Insert into Sample Date(PolicyNum, InsCode) Values ('1ABC12','1003')      

[Code] ....

Transact SQL :: How To Get Value Of A Particular Field From XML Data

Nov 6, 2015

We are running the following querry which insert data row from an XML source

INSERT INTO End_ReelProcessValue
(LineId
,ReelHist_id
,Variable_tagName
,ProcessMeasure
)

[Code] ....

From that querry, I need to store in a variable the Value of a particular XML entry in order to store it in an other table.The XML parsing is based on the following lines :

[Variable_Tagname] CHAR(50) '@Name',
[ProcessMeasure] NVARCHAR(254) '@Value'

What I need is that if the [Variable Tagname] issue from entry @Name is equal to the string "Quality", then I need to store its value to a variable.Then an other querry will use that variable to insert it to an other table.

How can I retrieve that particular record ?

Transact SQL :: Another Way Of Finding Max Values?

Oct 2, 2015

I have a query I am currently attempting to optimise.  The query joins in on a sub table (queries the same table) to garner a maximum date value for each row to display.  For example:

SELECT Column1
,Column2
,DateColumn
FROM Table1 T
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT Column1 + Column2 AS ConcatColumn, Column3, MAX(DateColumn) AS dt
FROM Table1
GROUP BY Column1 + Column2
) X ON X.ConcatColumn = T.Column1 + Column2 AND X.dt = T.DateColumn

Is there any way I can write this another way (preferably more cleaner/optimised)?

Replacing Field Values

Oct 9, 2007

I am trying to replace field values in SSIS. For exapmle, I have 'unkown' and 'N/A', and a few other values that mean the same thing, and I want to give all these fields the same value. I have not been able to find a tool in the toolbox to make this type of change. Is there one? And, if there is, do you know a link to a page explaining its use?

The closest I have come is the Derived column String Transformation:Replace. But, I have not been able to get this to do what I want. If you know of a good reference explaining this tool's use I'd appreciate it.

thanks much,

The result set contains a record with 'AAA' in the ITEM field.  However, where I write a query with a WHERE clause to select this specific 'AAA' record like this:

Select * from Exclude_Cusno_Item where item = 'AAA'

I get no results. What could be happening that would prevent the 'AAA' record from appearing in the result set of this query? Note that the 'AAA' entry has no trailing or leading blanks.

Check For Null Values In Transact Sql

Aug 20, 2006

I am using Visual Web Developer Express 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005.
I have set up a trigger that fires when an update has been performed on a specific table.  The trigger checks to see if specific columns have been updated.  If they have, then the trigger code is executed.  This part works fine.
I am now trying to find a way to check if null values exist in either one of two field from the same table.  If either field contains a null value, then I don't want the trigger code to be executed.
How can I check for null values and skip a block of code within my Transact Sql trigger.
