Transact SQL :: Update Statement Truncates Varchar Value

Oct 8, 2015

In t-sql 2012, data is obtained from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 where it is defined as varchar(8). The data is copied to test.dbo.LockCombination.combo where the field is defined as varchar(8). This copies all the data except the last right column.

Basically a value that is '12-34-56' intially from [Inputtb].lockCombo1 ends on in st.dbo.LockCombination.combo looking like

'12-34-5'. In this case the last value of '6' is missing. I have tried to use various string functions to obtain the entire value that should be  '12-34-56'  and ends up looking like '12-34-5'.

Here are 2 sqls that I have used and I get the same results:

1.
UPDATE LKC
SET LKC.combo = lockCombo1
FROM [Inputtb] A
JOIN test.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type and A.schoolnumber =
@SchoolNumber
JOIN test.dbo.Locker LKR ON SCH.schoolID = LKR.schoolID AND A.lockerNumber =

[Code] ....

I can not change the definition of the columns since these are production settings.

Thus can you  should me modified sql that will end up with the entire value of 8 characters in the [Inputtb].lockCombo1 column?

When I run this update statement, it updates the proper badgenumbers but it only updates them to 1 when I did a count? As the data displays some of the results should be more than 1. Why did this occur?

Transact SQL :: Update Statement In Merge Does Not Work

Jul 29, 2015

In the following t-sql 2012 merge statement, the insert statement works but the update statement does not work. I know that is true since I looked at the results of the update statement:

Merge TST.dbo.LockCombination AS LKC1
USING
(select LKC.comboID,LKC.lockID,LKC.seq,A.lockCombo2,A.schoolnumber,LKR.lockerId
from
[LockerPopulation] A
JOIN TST.dbo.School SCH ON A.schoolnumber = SCH.type

[Code] ...

Thus can you show me some t-sql 2012 that I can use to make update statement work in the merge function?

Transact SQL :: Case Statement In Update Clause

Jun 4, 2015

I have used the below update query. However, its updating only the first value. Like its updating AB with volume when c.Type  = ABC, similarly for CD. Its not updating based on the 2nd or the next case condition.
 
Update XYZ Set AB = a.Amt * (CASE WHEN c.Type = 'ABC'  THEN  (c.volume)
 WHEN c.TYPE = 'DEF'  THEN  (c.volume)
 WHEN c.Type = 'GHI'  THEN  (c.volume)
 Else 0
 END),
 CD = CASE WHEN c.Type = 'MARGIN' THEN '4105.31'
 WHEN c.Type = 'ABC' THEN '123.1'
 WHEN c.Type = 'DEF' THEN '234.2'
WHEN c.Type = 'GHI' THEN '567.1'
END
 from table1 a join table2 b
 on a.Cust = b.Customer
 join table3 c
 on b.account = c.account and b.channel =c.channel

Why its not working properly? But if i use Select statement instead of update query its working properly.

Transact SQL :: Using Case Statement With Update Query

Jun 22, 2015

I have a table A  and lookup table B.

table A:
| ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE | GOOD |
--------------------------------------------
|  1  | orange | cabbage     |  no   |
|  1  | apple  | lettuce        |  yes   |
|  1  | kiwi     | broccoli      |  no   |
|  1  | pear    | kale           |  yes   |

table B:
| ID | FRUIT | VEGETABLE |
-------------------------------
| 1  | apple  |  lettuce       |
| 2  | pear    |   kale         |

If the fruit and vegetable in table A is found in table B, then set the GOOD column = yes, else no.

This is what I have so far.

update tableA
set GOOD =
(case when tableA.id = C.id then 'yes'
else 'no'
end
)
from
(select tableA.id as id
from tableA A
left join tableB B on B.fruit = A.fruit

Transact SQL :: UPDATE Statement Failing On Unique Key Constraint

Jul 9, 2015

I'm trying to update rows in a simple table that has a UNIQUE KEY CONSTRAINT defined on one of its columns. Here is the DDL for the table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SEC_USER](
 [SEC_USER_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
 [USER_CODE] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
 [USER_NAME] [varchar](128) NOT NULL,
 [EMP_CODE] [varchar](6) NOT NULL,

[Code] ....

When trying to execute the UPDATE statement the query fails with a constraint violation error:

Violation of UNIQUE KEY constraint 'UQ__SEC_USER__A039F1EE62FE8444'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.SEC_USER'. The duplicate key value is (34337).

What has  me baffled is that I'm not doing any insert. Also, the value that it's referencing - 34337 - doesn't exist in the table at all. I'd rather not drop the constraint.

Transact SQL :: Get Identity Column Value When Update Statement Fails?

Sep 9, 2015

My current proc updates(updates using joins of two or three tables) millions of records as per the condition provided for each department.

However, when the proc fails it writes to a ErrorTable, ERROR_MESSAGE(), ERROR_SEVERITY() and which department has failed.

Since the records are updated keeping the selected departments in loop, I get the department in a temp variable.Now, I was asked to log the specific record where the failure was occured.Something like log the identity column value or primary key value which record has failed.

Transact SQL :: UPDATE Statement - Returns Correct Results When Running Separately

May 1, 2015

SQL Ver: 2008 (not r2)
Problem:  The following code returns correct results when moving variable declarations and update statement outside a stored procedure, but fails to return a value other than zero for the "COMPANY TOTAL" records.  The "DEPT TOTAL" result works fine both in and outside the sp.This may have to do with handling NULL values since I was getting warning message earlier involving a value being eliminated by an aggregate function involving a NULL.  I only got this message when running inside the sp, not when running standalone.  I wrapped the values inside the SUM functions with an ISNULL, and now return a zero rather than NULL for the "COMPANY TOTAL" records when running inside SP.All variable values are correct when running.

SQL CODE:
DECLARE 
     @WIPMonthCurrent date = (SELECT TOP 1 WIPMonth FROM budxcWIPMonths WHERE ActiveWIPPeriod = 'Y')
  select @WIPMonthCurrent as WIPMonthCurrent

Transact SQL :: VARCHAR (MAX) Not Showing Full Data

Nov 11, 2015

I created a procedure called 'Longtextprocedure'. The length of this procedure is 650000 characters long. When I was giving the following query - select len(routine_definition) from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.routines where ROUTINE_NAME = 'Longextprocedure'; Length is showing as '4000' characters long. It is not showing the remaining part of the procedure, it is showing upto the 4000 characters of procedure code. But when you execute the procedure(exec 'Longtextprocedure') it is showing the exact result. 

My question is i want to read all the 650000 characters long procedure code{select routine_definition from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.routines where ROUTINE_NAME = 'Longextprocedure'} to a variable which is varchar(max). 

When i am trying to read the whole procedure code it is taking 4000 characters of data into the variable not the whole. Is there a way to read the huge procedure code into the variable?

Code:- 

CREATE PROCEDURE FAKEPROCEDURE @procName VARCHAR(50)   --@procName is 'Longtextprocedure'
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @routineDefinition VARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @replaceToChar VARCHAR(MAX);

[Code] ....

When i am trying to execute the line EXEC(@dupliacteRouteDef), it is showing like there is no procedure defined. This is due to '@dupliacteRouteDef' variable is having 4000 characters of data not the whole data. Is there a way to read whole procedure data into the variable irrespective of the length of the string?

Transact SQL :: Firing After Update Trigger - On Table Row Update

Jul 8, 2015

I have a table where table row gets updated multiple times(each column will be filled) based on telephone call in data.
 
Initially, I have implemented after insert trigger on ROW level thinking that the whole row is inserted into table will all column values at a time. But the issue is all columns are values are not filled at once, but observed that while telephone call in data, there are multiple updates to the row (i.e multiple updates in the sense - column data in row is updated step by step),

I thought to implement after update trigger , but when it comes to the performance will be decreased for each and every hit while row update.

I need to implement after update trigger that should be fired on column level instead of Row level to improve the performance?

Multiple Tables Used In Select Statement Makes My Update Statement Not Work?

Aug 29, 2006

I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly.  My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys.  So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys.  I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit.  I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it.  I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates.  When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template.  This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value.  So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors.  I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode.  I make my changes and then select "update."  When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing.  The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work.  When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again.  Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People].  My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list.  If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database.  It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed.  If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can.  This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go.  I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

SQL Server 2012 :: Create Dynamic Update Statement Based On Return Values In Select Statement

Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".

Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.

Transact SQL :: Unexpected Rounding With MONEY When Casting To VARCHAR Or Printing

Dec 18, 2008

if I 'print' a MONEY value, or cast a MONEY variable to VARCHAR, it automatically rounds it to two decimal places. Maybe that's a built-in convenience, but I'd like to make it not do that.My workaround right now is to first cast my MONEY variabled to DECIMAL(30,4), and then cast the result to VARCHAR, but I'd like to avoid that step if possible.Consider the following

query:DECLARE @UnitCost MONEY  SET @UnitCost = .0167  SELECT      @UnitCost,      
CAST(@UnitCost AS VARCHAR(30)),     
CAST(CAST(@UnitCost AS DECIMAL(30, 4)) AS VARCHAR(30))  -
- Results in: 0.0167, 0.02, 0.0167
