Transact SQL :: Left Pad With 0 And Extract 2 Characters On The Left?
Oct 28, 2015
I have a table PLACE with a character column CODE
[Code] [nchar](4) NULL
I need to left pad the column with 0 if it is less than 4 characters long and extract the first 2 characters on the left into a new column COUNTY_CODE.
How can I do that in transact SQL?
I tried:
SELECT RIGHT(RTRIM('0000'+ISNULL([Code],'')),4)
FROM [Place]
WHERE [Place Code]='B' and [Code]='627'
And I got 0627. And how do I extract the first 2 characters?

I need to extract from a database of an association, the name of the associate and its last paid share, but after a day trying I simply cannot extract that data.
The table senhas represents the shares, the table associados the associate data and senhas_associados, represents the shares paid by an associate, as it was a many to many relationship.
To query this, I'm trying to query the share with the maximum id (senha) which is in seassoc_senha_id in senhas_associados which represents a paid share.
Here's what I've tried so far:
Firstly, I've tried this statement, the output is the required, but it doesn't show associates who haven't paid any share which is needed (no records in senhas_associados):
SELECT assoc_nome, senha_desig
FROM associados, senhas, senhas_associados
WHERE assoc_id = seassoc_assoc_id
AND seassoc_senha_id = senha_id
AND seassoc_senha_id IN (SELECT max(seassoc_senha_id)
FROM senhas, senhas_associados
WHERE seassoc_senha_id = senha_id
AND seassoc_assoc_id = assoc_id)
the output:
assoc_nome senha_desig

I've even tried adding this:
SELECT assoc_nome, senha_desig
FROM associados, senhas, senhas_associados
WHERE assoc_id = seassoc_assoc_id
AND seassoc_senha_id = senha_id
AND seassoc_senha_id IN (SELECT max(seassoc_senha_id)
FROM senhas, senhas_associados
WHERE seassoc_senha_id = senha_id
AND seassoc_assoc_id = assoc_id) OR senha_desig is null
To no avail, the output was the same.
Then, I've changed the "tactic" and went to left join:
SELECT assoc_nome, senha_desig
FROM associados
LEFT JOIN senhas_associados ON associados.assoc_id = senhas_associados.seassoc_assoc_id
LEFT JOIN senhas ON senhas.senha_id = senhas_associados.seassoc_senha_id
The output:
assoc_nome senha_desig

Carlos CostaJaneiro
Carlos CostaFevereiro

Now it shows NULL's, but I can't find where to put the max function.
I've attached the relational model of the involved tables.

Anyone know why using
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT OUTER JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
instead of
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
generates a different execution plan?
My query is more complex, but when I change "LEFT OUTER JOIN" to "LEFT JOIN" I get a different execution plan, which is absolutely baffling me! Especially considering everything I know and was able to research essentially said the "OUTER" is implied in "LEFT JOIN".
Any enlightenment is very appreciated.
Thanks

I have a query that based 2 tables. I wrote a query with a left join on the base table but the result set returns multiple rows for each occurrence in the second table because of the left join. I want but to return all records from on table A and only matching records from table B which id but I would wan tit to keep return them vertically as the because it make it difficult to read when put in a spreadsheet. It want it to return the values horizontally so the rows are not increasing for each occurrence on table b.

My tables look like this:
Users //
table
UserID // pk
UserName // varchar
UserFamilyName // varchar
User_Friends //
table
FriendsID // pk
UserID // fk
FamilyName // varchar
MY query:
SELECT
U.UserFamilyName, F.FamilyName
FROM
Users U LEFT
JOIN User_Friends
F ON U.UserID =
F.UserID
WHERE
U.UserName = ‘JOHN’
How do I adjust my query to select just the very first record from Users_friends, I want only the top first one.And if there are no friends how can I return an empty string instead of Null.

-- Why is the left table in a LEFT JOIN limited by the where clause on the right table?eg

I am still new to SQL and I am having trouble obtaining the results I need from a query. I have worked on this command for some time and searched the internet but cannot seem to still get it correct.
I have a table called Patient. It's primary key is pat_id.
I have a second table called Coverage. It has no primary key. The foreign keys are pat_id, coverage_plan_id, and hosp_status.
I have a third table called Coverage_History. It has a primary key consisting of pat_id, hosp_status, copay_priority, and effective_from.
I want to get the pat_id and all the coverage information that is current. The coverage table contains specific insurance policy information. The coverage_history table will indicate the effective dates for the coverage. So the tables could contain something like this:
Patient (pat_id and lname)
P123 Monto
P124 Minto
P125 Dento
P126 Donto
Coverage (pat_id, coverage_plan_id, hosp_status, policy_num)
P123 MED1 OP A1499
P123 ACT4 OP H39B
P124 MED1 OP C90009
P124 RAC OP 99KKKK
P124 RAC OP 99KKKK
P124 MED1 OP C90009
P125 ARP OP G190
P126 BCB OP H88
Coverage_History (pat_id, hosp_status, copay_priority, effective_from, coverage_plan_id, effective_to)
P123 OP 1 20150102 MED1 NULL
P123 OP 2 20150102 ACT4 NULL
P124 OP 1 20150203 RAC 20150430
P124 OP 2 20150203 MED1 20150430
P124 OP 1 20150501 MED1 NULL
P124 OP 2 20150501 RAC NULL
P125 OP 1 20150801 ARP NULL
P126 OP 1 20150801 BCB 20160101
select p.pat_id, p.lname, ch.coverage_plan_id, ch.hosp_status, ch.effective_from, ch.effective_to, ch.copay_priority,
from patient p
left join
( coverage_history ch left join coverage c on ch.coverage_plan_id = c.coverage_plan_id and ch.patient_id = c.patient_id and
(ch.effective_to is NULL or ch.effective_to >= getdate()
)
) on ch.patient_id = p.patient_id
where ( ch.effective_to is NULL or ch.effective_to >= getdate() )
So I want to see:
P123 Monto MED1 OP 20150102 NULL 1
P123 Monto ACT4 OP 20150102 NULL 2
P124 Minto MED1 OP 20150501 NULL 1
P124 Minto RAC OP 20150501 NULL 2
P125 Dento ARP OP 20150801 NULL 1
P126 Donto BCB OP 20150801 20160101 1

We have a service that inserts some rows into a parent table (P) and child table (C). This operation is atomic and performed within a transaction.
We also have a service that queries these tables such that rows are (should only be) returned from P where there are no children for that parent.
The SQL that performs this is simplified below:
SELECT P.SomeCol
FROM P
LEFT OUTER JOIN C ON P.PKofP_Value = C.PkofP_Value
WHERE
C.PkofPValue IS NULL
AND P.SomeOtherCol=0
Our expectation is that the query service should only return rows from P where there are no rows in C.
However, this seems not to be the case, and occasionally we find that rows from P are returned where there are matching rows in C.
We are sure that the process that inserts rows into P and C does so within a single transaction.
We have traced this with SQLTrace and can see the txn stag and committing and all operations using the same transactionid within the transaction.
We are running the default isolation level committed.
In SQLTrace we can see the query process start, the inserter process start and complete and then the query process continue (after presumably being blocked).
So how can the query process "miss" the child rows and return the parent from the above query?
Is it possible that, in this isolation level, the inserter process can block the query process such that when the inserter process commits and when the query process continues it does not see the child rows inserted because they were inserted in the table/index "behind" where the query process has already read - some kind of phantom phenomenon?

I was writing a query using both left outer join and inner join. And the query was ....
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
INNER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
[code]....
However ,the result that i got was correct.But when i did the same query using the left outer join in both the cases
i.e..
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
LEFT OUTER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
ON C.categoryid = P.categoryid)
ON
S.supplierid = P.supplierid
WHERE
S.country = N'Japan';
The result i got was same,i.e
supplier country productid productname unitprice categorynameSupplier QOVFD Japan 9 Product AOZBW 97.00 Meat/PoultrySupplier QOVFD Japan 10 Product YHXGE 31.00 SeafoodSupplier QOVFD Japan 74 Product BKAZJ 10.00 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 13 Product POXFU 6.00 SeafoodSupplier QWUSF Japan 14 Product PWCJB 23.25 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 15 Product KSZOI 15.50 CondimentsSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULLSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULL
and this time also i got the same result.My question is that is there any specific reason to use inner join when join the third table and not the left outer join.

The select command below will output one patient’s information in 1 row:
Patient id
Last name
First name
Address 1
OP Coverage Plan 1
OP Policy # 1
OP Coverage Plan 2
[code]...
This works great if there is at least one OP coverage. There are 3 tables in which to get information which are the patient table, the coverage table, and the coverage history table. The coverage table links to the patient table via pat_id and it tells me the patient's coverage plan and in which priority to bill. The coverage history table links to the patient and coverage table via patient id and coverage plan and it gives me the effective date.
select src.pat_id, lname, fname, addr1,
max(case when rn = 1 then src.coverage_plan_ end) as OP_Coverage1,
max(case when rn = 1 then src.policy_id end) as OP_Policy1,

I am trying to pad a field from the left with zeros that is defined in a table as "[char] (9)". The field can have from 1 to 9 chars populated. In this instance the value in the field is "133000", which I am trying to pad so that it will be "000133000". I have made several failed attempts to do this, the latest of which was this:

I'm trying to join 2 tables. I thought I was getting the correct results but it turns out I'm not.
My Query:
SELECT IVINVA, IVORDN, IVCSLN, IVRESR, IVCITM, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVIAMT as money),1) AS ExtPrice, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVPIVC as money),1) AS DistPrice, IVCSUM, IVQYCS, IVDESC, OIRESR, OIDPCT, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVPIVC - (OIDPCT / 100 * IVPIVC) as money),1) AS NetPrice FROM INVDET1_TBL LEFT JOIN ORDDIS_TBL ON ORDDIS_TBL.OIORDN = INVDET1_TBL.IVORDN AND ORDDIS_TBL.OIRESR = INVDET1_TBL.IVRESR WHERE IVORDN = '0859919' AND IVINVA = '00324024'
Basically, my problem lies in the seonc condition of the LEFT JOIN. I needed to set the two tables equal my item number, because in some situations I need that logic to get the correct result. It most other cases, that item column in the ORDDIS_TBL is NULL, thus giving me the wrong results. In that case, I would want the JOIN to only be ORDDIS_TBL.OIORDN = INVDET1_TBL.IVORDN, and not include the second part. Is there a way I can condition this with an If statement, If ORDDIS_TBL.OIRESR is Null then do this join, if not, then do this? I'm confused how to get the proper result here.

To the wise,
This may be a very simple problem but it's been racking may brains for a while and I just can't seem to think it through clearly.
I'm trying to return a query which uses a left join and where. I'm hoping to get a result set which shows - let us says all the departments in a company. I would like to see all the department but only the names of department heads that earn 20.000+.
In MS Access I used a subquery. My subquery returned only departments with department heads that earned 20.000+ - I then left joined the departments table to that query - no problem.
With MSSQL I've tried IN, ANY, ALL but my result sets only returns the departments that earn 20.000+ and the employees for those particular departments.
I'm thinking there must be some way of doing this without having to use a union clause.
Thanks for taking the time to read this message through.
Sincerely,
Arthur Lambiris

tblBasketConstituents
ID, ParentIndexID, ChildIndexID, Weight
121 20
223 80
313 50
412 50
As you can see the ParentIndexID and ChildIndexID fields refer to tblIndices.IndexID
I would like a stored procedure as follows:
show all index names and show the wights for the indexID you passed.
This is what I have so far and it is not correct yet. Not sure what the syntax should be.
alter PROCEDURE [dbo].[uspBasketIndices_Get]
@IndexIDint
AS
select
i.IndexID,
i.[Name],
bc.Weight

Any one know any facts and figures about maximum Left Joins allowed (or recommended) in one query?
I am running a MS SQL 2000 my database is full of relational data and most of my foreign keys (INT data type) are a Clustered Indexed, Usually I will only be pulling one record from collection of about a dozen tables, but the Database is expected to grow fast and become big.
Right now I have a Stored Proc that has eight(8) LEFT JOINs in it. My worry is that this query will kill me as the database approaches 50,000 records.

p.haircolor, p.eyecolor, p.complexion, p.bodybuilt, p.picture, p.dialectspoken,

c.name, c.address, c.telno, c.email, c.occupation, ed.year1, ed.year2, ed.degree, sch.schname
from hremployees as e
inner join psdatacenter as d on e.empdcno = d.dcno
inner join pspersonaldata as p on e.empdcno = p.dcno
left join hrappempcharrefs as c on e.empdcno = c.empdcno
left join hrappempeducs as ed on e.empdcno = ed.empdcno
left join hrsetschools as sch on ed.schoolcode = sch.schcode
the above query gives a 77 records
if i ran "select * from hremployees" generates 60 records
i think the error is in the left joining.
hrappempcharrefs, hrappempeducs and hrsetschools must be left joined to hremployees.
