Hi all
Is there a TSQL function like Oracle's Translate function? Where:
Translate('13,000
Miles','abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP QRSTUVWXYZ, ',' ') would
return '13000'?
I'm trying to extract a number from a string. REPLACE doesn't quite do
what I want.
Thanks
Can i use Translate function in sql server query? How i ll use? In my oracle, i m using a Translate function, but i want to run that in sql server. How to do that?

I want to know the equivalent of the Oracle translate function in SQL Server.
eg : select translate('entertain', 'et', 'ab') from dual.
I tried the SQL Server Replace function , but it replaces only one character or a sequence of character and not each occurrence of each of the specified characters given in the second argument i.e 'et'.
Please let me know if there is some other equivalent function in SQL Server
thanks.

Hi everyone,
My current dutie is translate Vb code into SSIS. The following structure is getting me totally crazy:
sql = "SELECT * FROM TABLE1 WHERE FIELD = XXXX"
rs.execute sql
WHILE NOT RS.EOF
STUFF
ANOTHER SELECT AND ANOTHER LOOP
...
...
INSERT AND DELETE STUFF
END WHILE
Which is the best method in order to reach this goal? I'm trying to by means of OLEDB Source Editor connected to Script Component Task on data flow layer but I'm stuck with this.
I don't want to do cursors or something like that with T-SQL.
Thanks in advance for your inputs/help and regards,
im trying to find the equivalent of the below oracle code in sql server.But to my knowledge i feel "translate "is not supported by sql server. so please send me the equivalent sql server query for this.SELECT 'http://ploft.com/ploft?y='||translate(comp,' ','+')||',+'||translate(california,'','+')||',+'||ca||'+'||pzINTO :ls_MAP FROM project WHERE portno=:dbno;

Hi,
How to translate oracle Decode without changed code I mean:
I have one application and instead to change all decode to case when I would like just replace decode for dbo.decode, so I
Wrote this function
select dbo.fnDecode( 1 , 2 , 3 )
first parameter always int, and the others parameters could be char, int or float.
I would like to test first value and return second or third value
-> sql_variant for all parameters, ok
but I can use + or -
I can't do this
select dbo.fnDecode( 1 , 2 , 3 ) + dbo.fnDecode( 1 , 2 , 3 )
If I put cast ok, but I is there another way, overload this call?
With clr doesn't work, because Sql Server doesn't accept function overload calls from C#
Any ideia????????????????????
cheers,

Hello,
I€™m new to this forum and my knowledge about RDL is very limited. We are developing software localization tools and some of our customers have requested a solution to translate RDL files.
Our tool has a generic XML parser so I reviewed the RDL documentation but didn€™t found any information about which XML elements do have translatable content. If there anyone who knows this or is there any documentation around describing which elements must be translated?
I also saw some proposals regarding the internationalization of RDL files. It seems that the proposed solutions were designed for developers and not for professional translators. In an environment where you have to translate several hundreds of RDL files into let€™s say 20 languages you can€™t expect that translators start to code RDL files. Are there any other approaches that can be used for a more efficient translation of RDL files?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Achim Herrmann
Is it possible to translate a DTSX/XML file into VB.Net or C# code, like you can do with a WSDL file? If so, is there a SSIS utility or third party available? Thank you.

Hi,
I have an alphanumeic string as one of the column values.I want to get numeic value out of the string.
I was planning on translating all the characters of the alphanumeric sting to spaces and then using ltrim and rtrim on it should give me the required numeric sring.But there is no translate function in sql server
Example: abcd123xy 123
xyz45 45
Can someone provide me a way to get the numeric value out of the strng.
Thanks

Hi
I want to translate the following
SERIALNO TYPE AMOUNT
1111 1 251111 1 5 1111 1 7 1111 1 3 1111 1 101111 3 1 1111 3 2 1111 3 4 1111 3 3
2222 0 1
2222 0 7
2222 0 1
2222 1 5
2222 1 1
2222 1 2
2222 1 3
to output in the following format
SERIALNO SUM of MIN SUM of MAX
1111 50 10
2222 9 11
For each SERIALNO I want to sum the AMOUNT, spliting the columns into 2 based on TYPE
There are only ever 2 values for TYPE for eachs serial no.
I don;t need to track the value of TYPE.
I assume you would use a MIN & MAX function but Im not sure how to write this into a view.
thanks...
I have some Named Sets that I want to translate. I have done exactly the same way as with the Calculated Members but the Sets don´t use the translations? Any ide why?

Hi,
to fully support SQL server 2005, I'd like to use DDL statements instead of deprecated stored procdure calls, I'm having trouble "translating" this one :

The only option available with ALTER FULLTEXT CATALOG are REORGANIZE and REBUILD.
Any idea ?

I am writing a query where I am identifying different scenarios where data changes between one week and the next. I've set up my result set in the following manner:
PrimaryID       SKUChange              DateChange         LocationIdChange       StateChange
10003Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â TRUEÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â FALSEÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â TRUEÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â FALSE
etc...
The output I'd like to see would be like this:
PrimaryID       Field Changed         Previous Value     New Value
10003            SKUName                SKU12345          SKU56789
10003            LocationId                Den123              NYC987
etc...
The key here being that in the initial resultset ID 10003 is represented by one row but indicates two changes, and in the final output those two changes are being represented by two distinct rows. Obviously, I will bring in the previous and new values from a source.
I have this function in access I need to be able to use in ms sql. Having problems trying to get it to work. The function gets rid of the leading zeros if the field being past dosn't have any non number characters.For example:TrimZero("000000001023") > "1023"TrimZero("E1025") > "E1025"TrimZero("000000021021") > "21021"TrimZero("R5545") > "R5545"Here is the function that works in access:Public Function TrimZero(strField As Variant) As String Dim strReturn As String If IsNull(strField) = True Then strReturn = "" Else strReturn = strField Do While Left(strReturn, 1) = "0" strReturn = Mid(strReturn, 2) Loop End If TrimZero = strReturnEnd Function

Is Rand function cannot be used in the User Defined function?
Thanks.
I need to be able to pass the output of a function to another function as input, where all functions involved are user-defined in-line table-valued functions. I already posted this on Stack Exchange, so here is a link to the relevant code: [URL] ...
I am fairly certain OUTER APPLY is the core answer here; there's *clearly* some way in which does *not* do what I need, or I would not get the null output you see in the link, but it seems clear that there should be a way to fool it into working.
Hi,
I wonder if there a function that i can use in the expression builder that return a value (e.g o) if the input value is null ( Like ifnull(colum1,0) )
i hope to have the answer because i need it so much.

Can anybody know ,how can we add builtin functions(ROW_NUMBER()) of Sql Server 2005 into database library.
I get this error when i used into storeprocedure :
ROW_NUMBER() function is not recognized in store procedure.
i used MS SQL SERVER 2005 , so i think "ROW_FUNCTION()" is not in MS SQL SERVER 2005 database library.
I need to add that function into MS SQL SERVER 2005 database library.
Can anbody know how we can add that function into MS SQL SERVER 2005 database library?
I want to write function to call another function which name isparameter to first function. Other parameters should be passed tocalled function.If I call it function('f1',10) it should call f1(10).

Ok, I'm pretty knowledgable about T-SQL, but I've hit something that seems should work, but just doesn't...
I'm writing a stored procedure that needs to use the primary key fields of a table that is being passed to me so that I can generate what will most likely be a dynamically generated SQL statement and then execute it.
So the first thing I do, is I need to grab the primary key fields of the table. I'd rather not go down to the base system tables since we may (hopefully) upgrade this one SQL 2000 machine to 2005 fairly soon, so I poke around, and find sp_pkeys in the master table. Great. I pass in the table name, and sure enough, it comes back with a record set, 1 row per column. That's exactly what I need.
Umm... This is the part where I'm at a loss. The stored procedure outputs the resultset as a resultset (Not as an output param). Now I want to use that list in my stored procedure, thinking that if the base tables change, Microsoft will change the stored procedure accordingly, so even after a version upgrade my stuff SHOULD still work. But... How do I use the resultset from the stored procedure? You can't reference it like a table-valued function, nor can you 'capture' the resultset for use using the syntax like:
DECLARE @table table@table=EXEC sp_pkeys MyTable
That of course just returns you the RETURN_VALUE instead of the resultset it output. Ugh. Ok, so I finally decide to just bite the bullet, and I grab the code from sp_pkeys and make my own little function called fn_pkeys. Since I might also want to be able to 'force' the primary keys (Maybe the table doesn't really have one, but logically it does), I decide it'll pass back a comma-delimited varchar of columns that make up the primary key. Ok, I test it and it works great.
Now, I'm happily going along and building my routine, and realize, hey, I don't really want that in a comma-delimited varchar, I want to use it in one of my queries, and I have this nice little table-valued function I call split, that takes a comma-delimited varchar, and returns a table... So I preceed to try it out...
SELECT *FROM Split(fn_pkeys('MyTable'),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error. Ugh. Eventually, I even try:
SELECT *FROM Split(substring('abc,def',2,6),DEFAULT)
Syntax Error.
Hmm...What am I doing wrong here, or can't you use a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
SELECT *FROM Split('bc,def',DEFAULT) works just fine.
So my questions are:
Is there any way to programmatically capture a resultset that is being output from a stored procedure for use in the stored procedure that called it?
Is there any way to pass a scalar-valued function as a parameter into a table-valued function?
Oh, this works as well as a work around, but I'm more interested in if there is a way without having to workaround:
DECLARE @tmp varchar(8000)
SET @tmp=(SELECT dbo.fn_pkeys('MyTable'))
SELECT *
FROM Split(@tmp,DEFAULT)
Hi All
Yesterday Peso was gracious enough to help me with creating function/views/sp's
I took those examples and extended what had from excel into function in SQL
however I see myself repeating certain parts of the query and i'm wondering if there is a way to call a function (in part or in whole) from another function?
Here are excerpts two functions I have:
We'll call this function UserUsage()
------------------------------------
RETURN(
SELECT ut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(Sum(hu.session_time)/ 60000) AS [Time Spent(MIN)],
Max(hu.time_stamp) AS [Last Log Date],
pct.Title, cat.topic_name
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable ut,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.history_usage hu,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.pc_CourseTitles pct,
ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.cam_topics cat
WHERE ut.student_id = hu.student_id
AND hu.course_id = pct.CourseID
AND hu.topic_id = cat.topic_id
AND ((ut.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (pct.ClientID=@ClientID)
AND (ut.GroupID=3400)
AND (hu.time_stamp>= @StartDate
And hu.time_stamp< @EndDate)
AND (hu.session_time<21600000))
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName, pct.Title, cat.topic_name
)
and will call this function UserSummary():
-----------------------------------------
RETURN (
SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]
FROM ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.UserTable AS ut
INNER JOIN ZSRIVENDEL.dbo.History_Usage AS hu
ON hu.Student_ID = ut.Student_ID
WHERE ut.ClientID = @ClientID
AND ut.GroupID = 3400
AND hu.Time_Stamp >= @StartDate
AND hu.Time_Stamp < @EndDate
AND hu.Session_Time < 21600000
GROUP BY ut.LastName, ut.FirstName
)
As you can see the first part of the both query are simlar. In particular the:
SELECTut.LastName, ut.FirstName,
CEILING(SUM(hu.Session_Time) / 60000.0) AS [Time Spent(MIN)]
and also the variables @StartDate and @EndDate.
In C# it would create a method and just call that method as well as the variables. However i'm not sure how to do that with sql functions. Could someone shed some light please?
Thank you!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a table:tblRateUserUserIDJudge intUserIDJudged intscore int
