Union And Order Statement
Jun 8, 2007
I have the following query and for some reason when I try to run it, it tells me there is an incorrect syntax near the 'union' statement. Can you tell me what is wrong with this?
SELECT MDN,
DATEPART(d,CallDate) as CallDate,
DATEPART(hh,CallDate) as Hour,
sum(ceiling((Cast(DurationSeconds as Decimal)/60))) as Minutes
FROM VoiceCallDetailRecord
WHERE DurationSeconds > 0 and CallDate >= '02/19/2007' and calldate < '03/19/2007' and COS = 3
AND (((CONVERT(varchar, CallDate, 108) Between '21:00:00' AND '23:59:59') OR (CONVERT(varchar, CallDate, 108) Between '00:00:00' AND '07:00:00'))

Hi,
I'm trying to write a UNION statement with 2 selects and can't figure out for the life of me how to do it.
select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY dateJoined
UNION
select top 10 * from tblusers ORDER BY lastLogin
The union works fine without the order by's, but I really need the order by's in there and I don't understand why its so difficult to do. Surely there must be some other strategy?
Any help is much appreciated.. thanks!!

hi all,
i have the following union statement, which works like a charm:SELECT [Name], [EventID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], [Date], NULL AS [StartDate], [Date] AS [SortDate], [Type] FROM [Events] WHERE [TourID] IS NULL AND AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel UNION SELECT [Name], [TourID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], NULL AS [Date], [StartDate], [StartDate] AS [SortDate], '2' AS [Type] FROM [Tours]WHERE AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel ORDER BY [SortDate]
now i want to ad a limit to this statement, but i can't get it working. i have tried this:SELECT * FROM (SELECT [Name], [EventID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], [Date], NULL AS [StartDate], [Date] AS [SortDate], [Type] FROM [Events] WHERE [TourID] IS NULL AND AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel UNION SELECT [Name], [TourID] AS [ItemID], [TourID], NULL AS [Date], [StartDate], [StartDate] AS [SortDate], '2' AS [Type] FROM [Tours]WHERE AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel) ORDER BY [SortDate] LIMIT 2
but i keep getting an error message saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword "ORDER". what am i doing wrong?

Hi
I have two tables which I'm combining.
Select employeeID as id, startDt as startDate from Table1
union all
Select CustomerID as id, startDt as startDate from Table2
order by startDt
This works fine, unfortunately, my problem is I only want to display the first latest customer. In a Union All, how do i distinguish whether I'm ordering the table it is trying to union or the actual unioned table tiself?
For example, this does not work.
Select employeeID as id, startDt as startDate from Table1
union all
Select top 1 CustomerID as id, startDt as startDate from Table2
order by startDt desc
order by startDt

hello,
I have 2 tables which contain a lot of articles, and they have same structure.
what I want to do is that, select top 10 articles from each table and then union those records to another table, also I need to order these articles in desc order by their added date before i union them.
what I know is that for union sql phrase , there is only one order by is allowed, so how could I order those 2 tables before i union them.
thanks

Hello,
I am trying to use dynamic ORDER BY with UNION in a stored procedure but I keep getting this error message:
ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION, INTERSECT or EXCEPT operator.
The ORDER BY works fine without the UNION, and the UNION works fine without the dynamic ORDER BY (just putting an ORDER BY works fine)
Here is the whole query in case this helps, thank you

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'

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

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

All,I've seen several posts regarding using UNION or UNION ALL to mashtogether two or more resultsets into a single result set, but can'tseem to find enough info here to help me answer my particularquestion.I have a stored procedure that gets the column names in a particularformat (i.e. "chassis_id"|"chassis_description"|"modify_date") as wellas actual data for a given table (in a quote-separated, pipe-delimitedmanner i.e. "1"|"description for the chassis"|"2004-09-08").I'd like to get both of these resultsets and mash them together. Thisworks, but when I need to order the second resultset (i.e. select *from chassis order by chassis_id), SQL Server returns an errorcomplaining about the chassis_id column name (invalid column name'chassis_id') in the Order By clause.From what I can tell, I'm using the UNION and Order By in correctly,but I'm not sure exactly what's wrong with it. If I take out the OrderBy, everything works great. Although I would like to be able to ordermy second resultset (in the same sproc) if possible.The actual queries I'm running are actually quite long, but here's onethat's a bit shorter to help illustrate:SELECT '"app_group_id"|"app_group_name"|"create_date"|"create_by"|"modify_date"|"modify_by"'UNION ALLSELECT + ISNULL(CONVERT(varchar,app_group_id), '') + '|'+ SUBSTRING(RTRIM(LTRIM(CONVERT(varchar, 1))), 1,0)+ '"' + ISNULL(CONVERT(varchar(1000), +REPLACE(CONVERT(nvarchar(4000),app_group_name), '"', '""')), '') +'"|'+ SUBSTRING(RTRIM(LTRIM(CONVERT(varchar, 2))), 1,0)FROM app_grouporder by app_group_idThank for any help on this./bc

Hi all,
I have the following UNION ALL statement that is my attempt to gather data for the past 5 weekdays (adding a "dummy" row for today's data).
I want the final output to end up in descending order, so for today, I would want today first, then Tuesday, then Monday, then Friday, then Thursday (provided there is data for each sequential day - if not, you get the idea, I want to select back to get the latest 5 days, most recent to oldest).
This select fails, because it doesn't like the ORDER BY in the subqueryselect
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END AS Dow, 'N/A' AS Freight
UNION ALL
(select top 4
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END as DOW,
CAST(CONVERT(int, (Freight * 100)) as VARCHAR(10)) as Freight
from Northwind.dbo.orders where employeeid = 9 order by [OrderDate] desc )
I know you can't use an ORDER BY in a subquery, UNLESS the subquery also uses a TOP n (which this one does)...but does anyone know why this isn't liking my code?
I got the select to work the way I want it to by doing the following (really UGLY) code...SELECT U.DOW, U.Freight FROM
((select
GETDATE() as [OrderDate],
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, GETDATE()) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END AS Dow, 'N/A' AS Freight )
UNION ALL
(select h.OrderDate as [OrderDate], h.DOW, h.Freight FROM
(select top 4
[OrderDate] as [OrderDate],
CASE
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Monday' THEN
'MON'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Tuesday' THEN
'TUES'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Wednesday' THEN
'WED'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Thursday' THEN
'THUR'
WHEN DATENAME(dw, [OrderDate]) = 'Friday' THEN
'FRI'
END as DOW,
CAST(CONVERT(int, (Freight * 100)) as VARCHAR(10)) as Freight
from Northwind.dbo.orders where employeeid = 9 order by [OrderDate] desc ) H)) U
order by OrderDate descbut am still confounded about why my original sub-select is rejected with such impunity.
My confusion seems likely related to understanding the set theory or basic concepts of the building of the select/Union rather than the way I am using the ORDER BY syntax, but I just can't seem to explain it to myself.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

This query works perfectly and orders by just as I need
Code:
Select
'1st' As [Type],
#Uno.ID
#Uno.Address,
#Uno.shippingInfo
FROM #Uno
[Code] ....
However, when I use it in a Union All so I can pull data from 2 diff tables, the order by statement no longer works. How can I order by data in 2 tables?
Code:
Select
'1st' As [Type],
#Uno.ID
#Uno.Address,

I am trying to combine 2 queries, each with their own 'order by' and I am having trouble.
This is just an example, not what I'm trying to do, my query is more elaberate but looks simular to this.
SELECT TOP 10 *, 'FieldA' AS SortedBy
FROM TableA
Order By FieldA Desc
UNION ALL
SELECT TOP 10 Precent *, 'FieldB' AS SortedBy
FROM TableA
Order By FieldB Asc
Anyway not to get the following error?
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 34
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'UNION'.

Hi,
Can anyone help as to how to get this to work? dbo.parseInt is a Function which sorts Alpha Numerically. If I removed the top part of the UNION, the Procedure works fine.
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.ByJobNoAlphaNumeric as
SELECT 0 AS JobID, '<All Jobs>' AS JobNo
UNION SELECT JobID, JobNo FROM tbl
ORDER BY dbo.parseInt(JobNo)

Hi!
I'm trying to get the results from three different tables, where they have some of the same results. I'm only interested in where they match and then trying to order by date (that's in three columns - M, D, Y). I read previous post in 9/07 but the result doesn't seem to order correctly. It does not have any rhyme or reason to the outputed results as it bounces back and forth through Oct, Nov and Dec posting and throughout all three tables. Here's my query below. Any ideas how I can get my ordering correct for all three tables to display all Oct, all Nov and all Dec?
Thanks so much
select date3, date2, date1, who, what

select date3, date2, date1, who, what from shows

I have the following as part of a union query:
CONVERT(CHAR(8), r.RRDate, 1) AS [Date]
I also want to order by date but when I do that it doesn't order correctly because of the conversion to char data type (for example, it puts 6/15/05 before 9/22/04 because it only looks at the first number(s) and not the year). If I try to cast it back to smalldatetime in the order by clause it tells me that ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION operator. I get the same message if I try putting just "r.RRDate" in the ORDER BY clause. It's not that big of a deal - I can lose the formatting on the date if I need to to get it to sort correctly, but this query gets used frequently and I'd like to keep the formatting if possible.
Thanks,
Dave

Hi guys,
I have the query below (running okay):
Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
The results are just as I need:
Field01 Field02
------------- ----------------------
192473 8461760
192474 22810
Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:
Code Block
SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02'
INTO AuxiliaryTable
FROM myTables
WHERE Conditions are true
ORDER BY Field01
SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable
The the results are:
Field02
----------------------
22810
8461760
And what I need is (without showing any other field):
Field02
----------------------
8461760
22810
Is there any good suggestion?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Aldo.

Hello,Im wondering if someone can offer some advice, Im trying to get a union in the statement below to it will return all the data as rows in one table..... DECLARE @counter INT
SET @counter = 0
WHILE @counter < 24
BEGIN
SELECT "Hour"=(SELECT @counter),
"HourAverage"=(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM webstats WHERE (hourstamp = @counter) AND (datestamp < getdate())) / (@numberofdays),
"HourToday"=(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM webstats WHERE (hourstamp = @counter) AND datestamp > DATEADD(d,-1,GETDATE()) AND datestamp < DATEADD(d,1,GETDATE()))
SET @counter = @counter + 1
ENDIf i write each statment out with the values as apose to @counter and union under each i get the result i am looking for... SELECT "Hour"=(SELECT 0),
"HourAverage"=(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM webstats WHERE (hourstamp = 0) AND (datestamp < getdate())) / (@numberofdays),
"HourToday"=(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM webstats WHERE (hourstamp = 0) AND datestamp > DATEADD(d,-1,GETDATE()) AND datestamp < DATEADD(d,1,GETDATE()))

UNION
etc. etc. Does doing a while loop have any performace advantages to my other example? Thanks Bart

FROM Cust_address INNER JOIN customer_order ON (Cust_address.CUSTOMER_ID = customer_order.CUSTOMER_ID) AND (Cust_address.ADDR_NO = customer_order.SHIP_TO_ADDR_NO);
This query uss the Bill to as the ship to inforamtion
SELECT CUSTOMER.ID, CUSTOMER.SHIPTO_ID, CUSTOMER.NAME, CUSTOMER.ADDR_1, CUSTOMER.ADDR_2, CUSTOMER.ADDR_3, CUSTOMER.CITY, CUSTOMER.STATE, CUSTOMER.ZIPCODE, CUSTOMER.COUNTRY, CUSTOMER.SHIP_VIA, customer_order.ID, customer_order.SHIP_TO_ADDR_NO
FROM CUSTOMER INNER JOIN customer_order ON CUSTOMER.ID = customer_order.CUSTOMER_ID;
I need this infroamtion in one table which I have done in the UNION statement as followed:
SELECT Cust_address.NAME, Cust_address.ADDR_1, Cust_address.ADDR_2, Cust_address.ADDR_3, Cust_address.CITY, Cust_address.STATE, Cust_address.ZIPCODE, Cust_address.COUNTRY, Cust_address.SHIP_VIA, customer_order.ID
FROM Cust_address INNER JOIN customer_order ON (Cust_address.CUSTOMER_ID = customer_order.CUSTOMER_ID) AND (Cust_address.ADDR_NO = customer_order.SHIP_TO_ADDR_NO)
UNION ALL
SELECT CUSTOMER.NAME, CUSTOMER.ADDR_1, CUSTOMER.ADDR_2, CUSTOMER.ADDR_3, CUSTOMER.CITY, CUSTOMER.STATE, CUSTOMER.ZIPCODE, CUSTOMER.COUNTRY, CUSTOMER.SHIP_VIA, customer_order.ID
FROM CUSTOMER INNER JOIN customer_order ON CUSTOMER.ID=customer_order.CUSTOMER_ID;
Here is the problem when I pull information out of the ship to table I get 2 results as followed My key field to pull this information is the Last field Custoemr ID this custoemr ID exist in both tables but contains different information I want to ONLY pull in the info that I need in this case it would be the first line that is the Correct shipping information.
NAMEADDR_1ADDR_2ADDR_3CITYSTATEZIPCODECOUNTRYSHIP_VIAID
DIEBOLD INC (4076A)ATTN: RANCE AARON343 MANOR DRPACIFICACA9404418932
DIEBOLD, INCOHUPS #88X08X18932
MY POINT: Is there a way to select a over all DISTINCT order ID.
Thank you for any help hope this make sense!

I am not completly sure if I have this posted in the right forum so if I don't just let me know and I will move it. Here is my problem. I need to be able to use the WHERE keyword more than once in one SELECT statement and have not been able to figure this out. I need to be able to first search for information under one column with the WHERE keyword like usual and then I need to be able to search the returned results with another WHERE keyword to narrow down the returned results. I tried writing two SELECT statements and joining them with a UNION ALL keyword like this:
"SELECT LI.ID, LI.CNID, CD.ID, LI.FDName, LI.FDR " & _
"FROM FinalDrive AS LI INNER JOIN CarData AS CD " & _
"ON LI.CNID = CD.ID WHERE LI.CNID = '1'" & _
"UNION ALL" & _
"SELECT LI.ID, LI.CNID, CD.ID, LI.FDName, LI.FDR " & _
"FROM FinalDrive AS LI INNER JOIN CarData AS CD " & _
"ON LI.CNID = CD.ID WHERE LI.FDName = 'Car1"
This hasn't worked and I didn't expect it to. Everytime I run this code I get an Unhandled SqlExecption:
Invalid column name 'Towing'.
Can anyone help me with figuring out how to use the WHERE keyword more than once. I am using Visual Basic.Net with ADO.Net. Thanks!

I have a report that is using a union statement to pull in data from two identical tables except that one is for current month, the other for archived data.
What I want to do is prompt the user once for a date and use the value to select from the right table. Since a sales date can only exist in one of the tables, one union will work, the other not.
But the report in prompting me for a parameter for each query....which is in Informix and the prompt is this: "?"
Is there anyway to force both halves of the query to see this as one parameter so the user is only prompted once?
Thanks

Hi,I have a database stored in MS SQL 2000 and an application written inVB5, which connects the database via JET/ODBC.I have a problem with the UNION statement.When I run a simple query like:"SELECT field1 FROM table1 UNION SELECT field2 FROM table2"I get the following error:"Runtime error 3078 - The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find theinput table or query 'select field1 from table1'. Make sure it existsand that its name is spelled correctly."I can run the queries separately "SELECT field1 FROM table1" and "SELECTfield1 FROM table2", so that I'm sure table and field names are correctand I have permission to access them.Both field1 and field2 are the same type (int).If I run the query in MS SQL Query Analyzer, it works fine.It doesn't work only when I run it from VB/JET/ODBC.Has anyone already had this kind of problem?Any help will be highly appreciated!Thank you so much for the attention.--Posted via http://dbforums.com

Is it possible to have a conditional union statement in a stored proc?Here's an example on the northwind database. If says there's a syntaxerror near the UNION statement. Looks like it doesn't like having theBEGIN directly in front of it.Is the only solution to create a dynamic sql string then call exec onit?Any help appreciated.Tom.CREATE PROCEDURE usp_test(@both int = 1)ASSET NOCOUNT ONSELECT * FROM territories WHERE regionid = 1IF @both = 1BEGINUNIONSELECT * FROM territories WHERE regionid = 2ENDGO

Hi,Should be quite simple but can someone please tell me the best way tocount the number of rows in an UNION ALL statement.I tried using @@ROWCOUNT but that doesn't seem to contain the correctnumber.Also, I assume that running the query again but just returning count(*)instead of the data is horribly inefficient (plus the code is thenbloated.)?Thanks,Mark

Hi,
Is there a way I can get this select Union statement to work in Access.
SELECT '' AS Router UNION SELECT DISTINCT Router FROM IPVPNRouterUpgradeCharges WHERE SchemeID = 12 AND
Router <> 'IPVPN Lite' AND Router <> 'VPN Bridge'
AND Router <> 'IPVPN Aggregated Bandwidth' ORDER By Router
I get this message in Access: Query input must contain at least input of query
Thanks for any help
Chris

I have TSQL query using UNION ALL. First subset returns 92 rows, second subset return 0 (ZERO) rows. Now if I execute them separately they execute subsecond. If I put UNION ALL between them then it hangs forever exactly on 88s row.
I understand I need to provide execution plans, actual queries etc but before going into all this details, why on earth even in theory UNION ALL with empty result will result in a hang of the first subset?
Based on estimated execution plan 2 subqueries are performed in parallel and then CONCATENTION is being used which shall result with just first subset immediately displayed in result.
Estimated execution plan attached, I can not get actual execution plan because query never completes.

I am trying to use SQL to pull unique records from a large table. The table consists of people with in and out dates. Some people have duplicate entries with the same IN and OUT dates, others have duplicate IN dates but sometimes are missing an OUT date, and some don’t have an IN date but have an OUT date.
What I need to do is pull a report of all Unique Names with Unique IN and OUT dates (and not pull duplicate IN and OUT dates based on the Name).
I have tried 2 statements:
#1:
SELECT DISTINCT tblTable1.Name, tblTable1.INDate
FROM tblTable1
WHERE (((tblTable1.Priority)="high") AND ((tblTable1.ReportDate)>#12/27/2013#))
GROUP BY tblTable1.Name, tblTable1.INDate
ORDER BY tblTable1.Name;
#2:
SELECT DISTINCT tblTable1.Name, tblTable1.INDate
FROM tblTable1
WHERE (((tblTable1.Priority)="high") AND ((tblTable1.ReportDate)>#12/27/2013#))
UNION SELECT DISTINCT tblTable1.Name, tblTable1.INDate
FROM tblTable1
WHERE (((tblTable1.Priority)="high") AND ((tblTable1.ReportDate)>#12/27/2013#));
Both of these work great… until I the OUT date. Once it starts to pull the outdate, it also pulls all those who have a duplicate IN date but the OUT date is missing.
Example:
NameINOUT
John Smith1/1/20141/2/2014
John Smith1/1/2014(blank)
I am very new to SQL and I am pretty sure I am missing something very simple… Is there a statement that can filter to ensure no duplicates appear on the query?
