Update Table Where It Matches Criteria From Another Table
Aug 20, 2007
I am trying to clean up an old database someone developed. I took the data and grouped the information that matched
I then imported it into a trips table. The matching data is all in the where statement. It shrunk 16k records for just under 2k records. Now I am trying to right a query to relate the 2 tables and update the tripid# to the triplist of people who actually attended.
Declare @Trip varchar(500)
Declare @Destination Varchar(500)
Declare @LeaveDate varchar(500)
Declare @LeaveTime Varchar(500)
Declare @ReturnDate varchar(500)
Declare @ReturnTime varchar(500)
Declare @Comment varchar(500)
Declare @RescheduleDate Varchar(500)
Declare @Rec int
Select @Rec = Rec# From Trips
Select @Trip = Trip from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @Destination = Destination from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @LeaveDate = LeaveDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @LeaveTime = LeaveTime from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @ReturnDate = ReturnDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @ReturnTime = ReturnTime from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @Comment = Comment from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @RescheduleDate = RescheduleDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Update TripList
SET tripid# = @Rec
WHERE (Trip = @Trip) and (Destination = @Destination) and (LeaveDate = @LeaveDate) and (LeaveTime = @LeaveTime) and (ReturnDate = @ReturnDate) and (ReturnTime = @ReturnTime) and (Comment = @Comment) and (RescheduleDate = @RescheduleDate)
Hi, I have a problem which is probably really simple to solve but I have gotten a tilt and cant get it...Hoping you can help me. What Im trying to do in pseudo-code:
Get A from a tableX where B = 0
Check tableY for each A and get B from there
Update all B in tableX where TableX.LotNo=TableY.Lotno with the value from TableY.B
I have a table that needs to be updated with a sequential number based on criteria.
I am trying to update the SeqID and LinkSeqID with the same sequential number if the ProductID and StoreID are in the same group. For instance the 1st three rows below are in the same group 752534 and 4, therefore the SeqID and LinkSeqID should be 1,2,3 and restart at 1 once the grouping of ProductID and StoreID changes. Please look at the examples below.
This is what I wan to do: If I, for example, have a table containing articles, and I want to allow users to return any article that matches a filter, which is defined by any number of keywords, located in another table.
(The FiltersKeywords table serves as a many-to-many relation table between the Keyword table and the Filter table)
In other words, a filter, which is used to selected articles with, can be made up of any number of keywords. The users would thus be able to build on the filters, adding new keywords as time goes, removing old none relevant etc. I suspect some filters could end having anywhere from 100 to 1000 keywords associated with them.
Using SQL 2005, is there anyway to query for articles in an efficient manner? How would the code look?
Basically I have a table of users (id, name), a lookup table preferences (id, title) and the table of user-pref (idUser, idPref).Given a user id X I wanted to select a list of users, ordered by the highest amount of coincidence in the preference table...
something like
SELECT * FROM users WHERE id <> X ORDER BY -number of common preferences-
I have two tables I am trying to compare as I have created a new procedure to replace an old one and want to check if the new procedure produces similar results.
The problem is that when I run my compare I get false matches. Example:
CREATE TABLE #ABC (Acct VARCHAR(10), Que INT); INSERT INTO #ABC VALUES ('2310947',110), ('2310947',245);
[Code] ....
Which gives me two records when I really do not want any as the tables are identical.
Hi,I have table with three columns as belowtable name:expNo(int) name(char) refno(int)I have data as belowNo name refno1 a2 b3 cI need to update the refno with no values I write a query as belowupdate exp set refno=(select no from exp)when i run the query i got error asSubquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when thesubquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used asan expression.I need to update one colum with other column value.What is the correct query for this ?Thanks,Mani
I am trying to create a query that will show me who is phoning who in anorganisation from available Telephone Billing information. I am creating aMSAccess 2000 database with a few few tables, two of which are:TableMembers: (containg fields Refs, DateCreated, MembershipNo,OfficeLocation ...NB: Refs has a Primary Key - No Duplicates)TablePeople: (containing fields: Refs, Name, Addr, TelHome, TelWork,TelMobile & TelFax)TableTelBills: (containing fields: Refs, TelNo, DateCalled, Duration,TelType)I am trying to create a query that will use a simple searching criteria eg.,Like "*" [Enter the Tel No or part Tel No to search:] & "*"to search all the Tel fields in the TablePeople and TableTelBills (TelHome,TelWork, TelMobile, TelFax and TelNo) but am running in difficulties.I start by creating a query and adding the tables TablePeople andTableTelBills and TableMembers.I use the Refs from the Table Members as a base criteria but do not know howto create criteria that will search all Tel fields at once!I would appreciate any and all help people!Jan
Hi All,Sorry if the subject line is too obscure -- I couldn't think of a wayof describing this request.I have a table that contains approximately 1 million records.I want to be able to be able to select the top x records out of thistable matching variable criteria.Pseudo table records:custid, category, segment1,1,12,1,13,1,14,1,15,1,26,1,27,1,28,1,29,2,110,2,111,2,112,2,113,2,214,2,215,2,216,2,217,2,318,2,319,2,320,2,3So, what I'm trying to do is return a recordset, for example, thatcontains the top 2 of each variation of category and segment.ie:1,1,12,1,15,1,26,1,29,2,110,2,113,2,214,2,217,2,318,2,3The only way I can think to achieve this is in a while statement,performing individual selects against each combination, feeding thewhere criteria by variables that I automatically increment.I can't help thinking there's a much more graceful way of achievingthis?If anyone can give me any insight into this I'd be incrediblyappreciative!Many thanks in advance!Much warmth,Murray
I have a set of udf's dealing that return a one column table of valuesparsed from a comma delimeted string.For example:CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[udf_filter_patient](@patient_list varchar(2000))RETURNS @patient TABLE(patient_id int)ASBEGINinsert into @patientselect patient_id from patient-- parse @patient_list stuff excludedRETURNENDI have come up with the following two schemes to use these udfs. Theseexamples are obviously simplified, and I have a handful of stored proceduresthat will use between 10 or more of these filters. If the two areequivalent, I prefer Method 2 because it makes for much neater SQL whenusing many filter criteria.So my question is, will one noticebly outperform the other? Or is there abetter way in which to filter on a list of criteria?Method 1 :CREATE PROC sp__filter_open_bills@patient_list varchar(2000)ASCREATE TABLE #patient(patient_id int)INSERT INTO #patientSELECTpatient_idFROMdbo.udf_filter_patient( @patient_list )SELECT*FROMopen_billsINNER JOIN #patient on #patient.patient_id = open_bills.patient_idGOMethod 2 :CREATE PROC sp__filter_open_bills@patient_list varchar(2000)ASSELECT*FROMopen_billsWHEREopen_bills.patient_id IN ( SELECT patient_id FROMdbo.udf_filter_patient( @patient_list ) )GOThanks for the help!Chris G
I have an ordering database with several tables that store data of orders belonging to a wide variety of clients. There is a generic report that I need to run which outputs the same data elements. However the criteria to select these orders will vary widely between each client. For e.g.
i) for client# 1 it could be all orders that are still open after 30 days of placing an order
iii) for client# 3 it could be a combination of different things (all orders in West Region that are in hold status for more than 10 days + all orders in Eastern Region that are in shipping and are expected to be delivered in the next 2 days + all completed orders for the rest of the regions).
( OrderRegion = 'West' AND OrderStatus = 'Hold' AND GetDate() - OrderHoldDate >= 10

I want to have a stored procedure that selects all data and dynamically attach the where condition at the end for filtering. This way I wouldn't have to worry about any additions/changes that are made to the selection criteria. I can build an interface for admins who can use the UI to maintain the selection criteria and not worry about any code changes to accommodate it. I would like to design a table that holds this criteria. At this point in time, I am thinking of using key value pairs (Column Name, Column Value) but I am not sure how to implement multiple logical operators.
The database has approx. 2500 temporary tables. The temp tables match a pattern such as APTMP... I tried deleting the tables in SSMS with the statement, Delete from Information_Schema.tables where substring(table_name,1,5) = 'APTMP' This returns the error message"Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed".
What is the correct way to delete a group of tables whose name match a pattern from within SSMS?
I imported a SQL Table into SQL DataBase, But I can not update this table even with SQL Server management Studio When I change any data on mentioned table above, Red exclamation sign appears left of the record . How can I correct this problem? Thanks.
This program gets the values of A and B passed in. They are for table columns DXID and CODE. The textbox GET1 is initialized to B when the page is loaded. When I type another value in GET1 and try to save it, the original initialized value gets saved and not the new value I just typed in. A literal value, like "222" saves but the new GET1.TEXT doesn't.
I have contract table which has built in foreign key constrains. How can I alter this table for delete/ update cascade without recreating the table so whenever studentId/ contactId is modified, the change is effected to the contract table.
Thanks
************************************************** ****** Contract table DDL is
create table contract( contractNum int identity(1,1) primary key, contractDate smalldatetime not null, tuition money not null, studentId char(4) not null foreign key references student (studentId), contactId int not null foreign key references contact (contactId) );
I am trying to use a stored procedure to update a column in a sql table using the value from a variable table I getting errors because my syntax is not correct. I think table aliases are not allowed in UPDATE statements.
This is my statement:
UPDATE [dbo].[sessions_teams] stc SET stc.[Talks] = fmt.found_talks_type FROM @Find_Missing_Talks fmt WHERE stc.sessionid IN (SELECT sessionid FROM @Find_Missing_Talks) AND stc.coupleid IN (SELECT coupleid FROM @Find_Missing_Talks)
I have a scenario where I have to Update a table with date when there are new records in another table
For example:
I load ODS table with the data from a file in SSIS. the file has CustomerID and other columns.
Now, when there is new record for any customerID in Ods, then Update the dbo table with the most recent record for every CustomerID(i.e. update the date column in dbo for that customerID). Also Include an Identifier that relates back to the ODS table. How do I do this?
I am trying to update one table when records are inserted in another table.
I have added the following trigger to the table “ProdTr” and every time a record is added I want to update the field “Qty3” in the table “ActInf” with a value from the inserted record.
My problem appears to be that I am unable to fill the variables with values, and I cannot understand why it isn’t working, my code is:
ALTER trigger [dbo].[antall_liter] on [dbo].[ProdTr] for insert as begin declare @liter as decimal(28,6)
Hi, Is this anyway to finding updated/ deleted recored using anyother data flow transformation tasks without using sql task. Can find the new records using merge join task.
Is there better way to merge master table using staging table?
We need to Insert/Update a Fact Table from staging Table. currently we are using a SP which update Fact Table for Each region. this process is schedule, every 5 min job is run and Update fact table.but time of Insert and Update too long from staging to Fact, currently we are using merge statement for Insert and update.in my sp we are looping number how many region we need to update and at a time single Region we are updating using while loop in current SP.
I would like to update the flag of the promotion ID should the promotion ID date range overlap with Promotion ID(All) Date Range. The general logic is as below.
Update TableName SET PromotionID Flag = 1 AND Reason = 'Overlap with row ID(Overlap row ID number)' Where EACH ROW(Except with Promotion ID ALL) Date Range Overlap with ROW(with promotion ID ALL) Date range
I have a table called ADSCHL which contains the school_code as Primary key and other two table as
RGDEGR(common field as SCHOOl_code) and RGENRl( Original_school_code) which are refrencing the ADSCHL. if a school_code will be updated both the table RGDEGR (school_code) and RGERNL ( original_schoolcode) has to be updated as well. I have been provided a new data that i have imported to SQL server using SSIS with table name as TESTCEP which has a column name school_code. I have been assigned a task to update the old school_code vale ( ADSCHL) with new school_code ( TESTCEP) and make sure the changes happen across all 3 tables.
I tried using Merge Update function not sure if this is going to work.
Update dbo.ADSCHL SET dbo.ADSCHL.SCHOOL_CODE = FD.SCHOOL_Code FROM dbo.ADSCHL AD INNER JOIN TESTCEP FD ON AD.SCHOOL_NAME = FD.School_Name
To avoid locking/blocking, or in transaction scope, we are trying make a common practice of writing coide for update commands in our all SPs based on primary key columns in where clause. I have a following scenario...
UPDATE [dbo].[TL_CST_Locker_Issuance] SET [isActive] = 0 WHERE LockerIssuanceId IN (SELECT LockerIssuanceId
[Code] ...
What is the better approach and should be followed to avoid locks and gain performance or best approach.
I need to update the AcquiredFrom table from source_office table. both the tables are from different database and server. we can match them on Code and source code. Initially if we can find out the discrepancies and then how can we fix them. Also there might be some dealerships that would have to be added to acquiredfrom table from the source_office table if they are not there already.
Table 1 (AcquiredFrom) database (Service) Server(FS3) Select Code, Name, ContactName, AddLine1, AddLine2, city, state, zip, PhoneNumber FROM [dbo].[AcquiredFrom] Order by Code Table 2 (source_office) database (DCP_PROD) Server (DPROSQL) Select source_code, name, addr1, addr2, city, state_id, zip, phone FROM [dbo].[source_office] order by source_code
I want to update @Stop.UserField with thevalue from @UpdateSource where @UpdateSource.HasPathway=@Stop.UserField...but I need to use the @FieldDescription table to determine how to map the columns.
