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

Multiple Column Update Statement

Aug 25, 2006

Hi,

I'm new to SQL Server but not new to SQL because I used it with Oracle. I wonder if it is possible to do this kind of statement on SQL Server:

UPDATE TableX M
SET (M.column1, M.column2, M.column3)=
(SELECT T.column1, T.column2, G.column3)
FROM Table_Y T,
Table_Z G
WHERE join condition))
WHERE EXISTS (join condition for TableX)

Basically, I'd like to update multiple columns in one statement but for some reason I can not get it to work.

What would be the equivalent on SQL Server?

Thanks for the help,

Laszlo M

Updating The Same Column Multiple Times In One Update Statement

Jul 23, 2005

I have a single update statement that updates the same column multipletimes in the same update statement. Basically i have a column thatlooks like .1.2.3.4. which are id references that need to be updatedwhen a group of items is copied. I can successfully do this withcursors, but am experimenting with a way to do it with a single updatestatement.I have verified that each row being returned to the Update statement(in an Update..From) is correct, but that after the first update to acolumn, the next row that does an update to that same row/column combois not using the updated data from the first update to that column.Does anybody know of a switch or setting that can make this work, or doI need to stick with the cursors?Schema detail:if exists( select * from sysobjects where id = object_id('dbo.ScheduleTask') and type = 'U')drop table dbo.ScheduleTaskgocreate table dbo.ScheduleTask (Id int not null identity(1,1),IdHierarchy varchar(200) not null,CopyTaskId int null,constraint PK_ScheduleTask primary key nonclustered (Id))goUpdate query:Update ScheduleTask SetScheduleTask.IdHierarchy = Replace(ScheduleTask.IdHierarchy, '.' +CAST(TaskCopyData.CopyTaskId as varchar) + '.', '.' +CAST(TaskCopyData.Id as varchar) + '.')FromScheduleTaskINNER JOIN ScheduleTask as TaskCopyData ONScheduleTask.CopyTaskId IS NOT NULL ANDTaskCopyData.CopyTaskId IS NOT NULL ANDcharindex('.' + CAST(TaskCopyData.CopyTaskId as varchar) + '.',ScheduleTask.IdHierarchy) > 0Query used to verify that data going into update is correct:selectScheduleTask.Id, TaskCopyData.Id, ScheduleTask.IdHierarchy, '.' +CAST(TaskCopyData.CopyTaskId as varchar) + '.', '.' +CAST(TaskCopyData.Id as varchar) + '.'FromScheduleTaskINNER JOIN ScheduleTask as TaskCopyData ONScheduleTask.CopyTaskId IS NOT NULL ANDTaskCopyData.CopyTaskId IS NOT NULL ANDcharindex('.' + CAST(TaskCopyData.CopyTaskId as varchar) + '.',ScheduleTask.IdHierarchy) > 0

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

Jan 9, 2015

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.

SQL Server 2008 :: How To Update Multiple Column With Multiple Condition

Feb 25, 2015

I need to update multiple columns in a table with multiple condition.

For example, this is my Query

update Table1
set weight= d.weight,
stateweight=d.stateweight,
overallweight=d.overallweight
from
(select * from table2)d
where table1.state=d.state and
table1.month=d.month and
table1.year=d.year

If table matches all the three column (State,month,year), it should update only weight column and if it matches(state ,year) it should update only the stateweight column and if it matches(year) it should update only the overallweight column

I can't write an update query for each condition separately because its a huge select

UPDATE Statement With Multiple Criteria

Apr 5, 2006

I am trying write a query to update a column of data in my xLegHdr table however the update is based on multiple criteria. I was trying to use "IF..ELSE" statements but that is not working.

I would like to update the "SMiles" column based on the data in the "Dist" column. If the number in the "Dist" column is less than 250 then subtract 25 and multiply it by 1.15 the result should go in the "SMiles" column. If the number is grater than 250 then subtract 40 and multiply by 1.15 and place the result in the "SMiles" column; like so:

UPDATE xLegHdr
SET SMiles =
IF Dist<250 THEN Round(Dist-25)*1.15)
ELSE Round(Dist-40)*1.15)
END IF

Any ideas?

IF Statement To Update Multiple Rows

Oct 12, 2007



Hi,

I am writting a bit of SQL that takes data from one table then inserts it into another one. There is a field that can be any value (and is usually null), but when I insert the value in the new table then I want to execute:

IF table.field>0 then tabl2.field='400'. In other words for every row in the selection that has a field that is greater than 0 then '400' will be put into the new table.

I am not sure if the IF stamement can loop through a number of rows and execute depending on the value of a field in that row??

Thanks

Multiple CTE In One SELECT Statement Query

May 8, 2014

I am trying to apply the logic from the following resource: URL....but cannot get it to work with my logic for some reason.For example, the following query:

;WITH CTE1 AS (SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 120) AS Col1),
CTE2 AS (SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 111) AS Col2)
SELECT CTE1.Col1,CTE2.Col2
FROM CTE1
CROSS JOIN CTE2
GO

Produces the following output:

Col1 | Col2
2014-05-08 10:55:54 | 2014/05/08

But, as soon as I try to do something else like:

;WITH CTE1 AS (SELECT COUNT(login) FROM userinfo AS Col1),
CTE2 AS (SELECT COUNT(login) FROM userinfo AS Col2)
SELECT CTE1.Col1,CTE2.Col2
FROM CTE1
CROSS JOIN CTE2
GO

I receive the following errors:

Msg 8155, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
No column name was specified for column 1 of 'CTE1'.
Msg 8155, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
No column name was specified for column 1 of 'CTE2'.

Are there limitations when trying to use multiple CTE in a single query?

Select And UPDATE Statement Help! (Using SQL Server)

May 7, 2007

I have a table which I need to obtain data from but am having a problem with select statement.
 Specifically, I have a table that has multiple records for a particular hostName where the name of the host is either a shortname (say "Larry") or a long name (say "Larry's"). 
       I need to display only the long names (NOT THE SHORT NAME records with the similar hostName).
      Select winsHostName, len(winsHostName) from winsData where winsClientIPAddress IN                     (SELECT winsClientIPAddress                      from winsData                     Group By winsClientIPAddress                     Having count(winsClientIpAddress) > 1)                     Order by winsHostName
   Which returns data
                    Name               Length
                    ATVDDR          6                   ATVDDR1         7
This is a s far as I can get but,
Now, I need to list all remaining table fields based on the Name with the longer length and this is where I run into trouble.
               The output should read per below with the remaining table fields which I cannot seem to extract with nested select statement
                            Name              IP Addr     Location
                            ATVDDR1       1.1.1.1     2ndFloor
I tried adding another GROUP BY by this gets me no where because I do not need to execute another aggregate in select statement. Maybe I need to use INNER JOIN 
 Please advise any assistance.

Dynamic Select/Update Statement Possible?

Dec 3, 2004

Would it be possible to retrieve a "dynamically" named field from a table by using an input parameter?

For example, if a table has fields named Semester1, Semester2, Semester3, Semester4, and I was lazy and only wanted to create one stored procedure for all semesters could I do the following...

ALTER PROCEDURE u_sp_x
@semester int
AS
Select Semester@semester
From ThisTable

Just curious.

Thanks,

How To Convert SELECT Into UPDATE SQL Statement

Apr 15, 2008

Hello!

I am trying to write an update t-SQL statement from the following select statement:

SELECT EduNextContacts.ssn
FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN
EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND
EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code
GROUP BY EduNextContacts.ssn
HAVING(SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '103' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) +
SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '102' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) >= 2)

I tried many versions of writing my update statement with no luck. My most recent version is as follows:


UPDATE EduNextContacts

SET EduNextContacts.overLMLimit = 'Y'

FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN

EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND

EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code

WHERE EduNextContacts.ssn = (SELECT DISTINCT EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn

FROM EduNextContacts Left JOIN

EduContactsAuditChanges ON EduNextContacts.ssn = EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn AND

EduNextContacts.campaign_code = EduContactsAuditChanges.campaign_code

GROUP BY EduContactsAuditChanges.ssn

HAVING(SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '103' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) +

SUM(CASE EduContactsAuditChanges.release_code WHEN '102' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) >= 2))


And gives the following error:

Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.


Can anyone help shed some light on how to make an update statement from my SELECT query above?

Thanks in advance,
Harry

Update Multiple Varbinary Records With Single Sql Statement

Jan 16, 2007

I am renovating an existing application and am converting the existing passwords into hashed values using SHA1. I know how to compute the hashed values as a byte array for each record. What I don't know how to do easily is update all of the records i a single call to the database. Normally, I would just do the following:UPDATE HashedPassword = someValue WHERE UserID = 101;
UPDATE HashedPassword = someOtherValue WHERE UserID = 102;
...

What I don't know is what someValue and someOtherValue should be. How do I convert my byte array into string representation that SQL will accept? I usually execute multiple statements using Dim oCmd as New SqlCommand(sSQL, MyConn) and then call oCmd.ExecuteNonQuery().
Alternatively, I found the following code that uses the byte array directly but only shows a single statement. How could I use it to execute multiple statements as shown above?'FROM http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/103002-1.2.aspx

'2. Create a command object for the query
Dim strSQL as String = _
"INSERT INTO UserAccount(Username,Password) " & _
"VALUES(@Username, @Password)"
Dim objCmd as New SqlCommand(strSQL, objConn)

'3. Create parameters
Dim paramUsername as SqlParameter

Multiple Select Statement In A Stored-proc?

Mar 1, 2005

I am using SQL sever 2k and C#.

There is a stored-procedure that it has multiple select statements as returned result set. How can I use SqlCommand.ExecuteReader to get all result set?

What if the multiple select statements is " FOR XML", how can I set all xml using ExecuteXmlReader?

I tried to use ExecuteReader or ExecuteXmlReader, but seems that I can only get back the result set of the first select statement, all others are messed up.

stored procedure example: NorthWind database:

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO

Create PROCEDURE dbo.getShippersAndEmployeesXML
AS


select * from Shippers for xml auto, elements
select * from Employees for xml auto, elements

RETURN @@ERROR

GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO


C# code example:

//set connect, build sqlcommand etc

XmlTextReader reader = (XmlTextReader)command.ExecuteXmlReader();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
while(reader.Read()) sb.Append(reader.ReadOuterXml());

Basic SQL: Multiple AND/OR Nightmare In SELECT Statement

Aug 9, 2006

This is more of a basic SQL question rather than anything specific for T-SQL, but I assume someone here can help me...

I have a problem with properly combining a lot of AND and ORs in a SELECT statement in a stored procedure in order to get the desired results. The problem is that I want to have all results that fullfill all of the supplied conditions: InstitutionCode, CollectionCode, ScientificName, Locality (unless they are null, hence 'coalesce') and the Parentid, that can be in one of eight columns.

SELECT * FROM QueryView WHERE InstitutionCode = COALESCE(@museum, InstitutionCode) AND CollectionCode = COALESCE(@collection, CollectionCode) AND ScientificName LIKE '%' + @binomen + '%' AND Locality LIKE '%' + @locality + '%' AND ParentID1 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID3) OR ParentID2 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID2) OR ParentID3 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID3) OR ParentID4 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID4) OR ParentID5 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID5) OR ParentID6 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID6) OR ParentID7 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID7) OR ParentID8 = COALESCE(@taxparent, ParentID8)

The current construction, however, gives me all results that fullfill either on of the four conditions, or the parentid in one of the columns. putting parentheses around parentid part gives me zero query results. I understand that the ORs should be restricted to the parentids and not the rest, but putting parentheses around parentid part gives me zero query results.

Has anyone got a good tip to help me resolve this puzzle?

Can You Have Multiple Output Parameters? Difference Between A Select Statement?

Mar 9, 2004

I have a user login scenario where I would like to make sure that they not only exist in the user table, but also make sure there account is "verified" and "active". I'm trying to return 3 output parameters. UserID, verified, active. Is this possible?

Do I need just a select statement to do this? What is the difference between the output and select statements?

Thanks in advance.
