Update Query Using Uppercase

Dec 30, 2004

Hi,

I have a table where the values in the Description field are all upper case. I found a script that will change all the words to UPPERCASE in the first character then LOWERCASE for the remaining until the next space is found. It will also repeat this for all words in the field.

The part I need help with is having this repeat through the entire table. Heres the code and thanks - troy


declare @input varchar(20)
declare @position int
set @input = (SELECT Description FROM tbl_ItemMast where wallysku ='10071')
set @position = 1
SET @input = Upper(substring(@input,1,1))+ LOWER(substring(@input,2,len(@input)-1))
WHILE @position < DATALENGTH(@input)
Begin
set @position = charindex(' ',@input,@position+1)
if @position = 0
goto done
SET @input = REPLACE(@input,substring(@input,@position,2),Upper(substring(@input,@position,2)))
End
DONE:
PRINT @input

Uppercase T-sql Keyword In Query Editor

Oct 16, 2006

In Query Editor I type statements like this:



"select * from ...."



Does Query Editor support a "macro" facility where I could, via keystorke, uppercase all t-sql keywords? (so it would look like SELECT * FROM...)



TIA,

barkingdog



P.S. You think I'm lazy? I knew a programmer who was so lazy that his password was one character long!

Predicate Or Key Word All In Uppercase?

Jul 12, 2006

Hi,

What is the dowside of not using all uppercase for predicates and key words?

I cannot find to see a problem beside adhering to a clean coding convention. After all I already have color coding so what would be the uppercase for?

Same question for the semicolon ; at the end of a sql block. Is that real necessary not to get in trouble sometime down the road or is it a non-issue. I find like I am now a C# guys if I use these ;

Just curious, I find tedious to switch from all upper case to normal case all the time. And not forget to type the ;

Thanks,

Philippe

I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?

Very Slow Running Update Query Query

Nov 19, 2004

I have an update query running which to just now has been running for 22 hours running on two tables 1 a lookuptable that has just been created within the batch the other a denormalised table for doing data analysis on

the query thats causing teh problem is


--//////////////////////////////////// this is the one thats running


Print 'Update Provider 04-05 EmAdmsCount12mths : ' + CAST(GETDATE() AS varchar)
GO
Update Provider_APC_2004_05
set EmAdmsCount12mths =
(Select COUNT(*)-1
from Combined_Admissions
where ((Combined_Admissions.NHSNumber = Provider_APC_2004_05.NHSNumber) or
(Combined_Admissions.PASNUMBER = Provider_APC_2004_05.PDDISTNO)) and
(Combined_Admissions.AdmDate BETWEEN DateAdd(yyyy,-1,Provider_APC_2004_05.AdmDate) AND Provider_APC_2004_05.AdmDate) AND

Update Query Help

This is my first website done in ASP.NET and SQL Server 2005. I haven't ran into any major problems, until I tried to run an update on some rows. I've searched everywhere online, only to be stuck at the end of the day. I will post the code I have for the button that triggers it. I'll be crossing my fingers! int eid = Int32.Parse(Request.QueryString["id"]);
string updateSQL = "UPDATE Events SET event_title = @event_title, event_date = @event_date, ";
updateSQL += "event_time = @event_time, event_location = @event_location, event_description = @event_description WHERE (eid = @eid)";

SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(updateSQL, con);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;

// Add the parameters.
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@event_title", txtEditTitle.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@event_date", txtEditDate.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@event_time", txtEditTime.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@event_location", txtEditLocation.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@event_description", txtEditDescription.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eid", eid);

// Try to open database and execute the update.
try
{
con.Open();
int updated = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch (Exception err)
{
Response.Write(err.Message);
}
finally

Update Query Not Doing Anything?

Jul 23, 2007

OK, so I have this page where a user can edit multiple fields in a database record. My problem is, that once changes have been made and the user hits the "save" button, everything SEEMS to run just fine (no errors, other things that should happen when the button is clicked happen normally), but nothing is changed. It's almost like the update function (which was created with Microsoft ASP.NET Web Matrix) is working, but it's being fed the old values for the page, rather than the updated ones.
Any ideas on what might be causing this? It's not like anything I've seen before.
Thanks

Need Help With An Update Query.

Mar 7, 2006

Once a month I will have to run a query to update 2 fields
in one table, from another table.

Say Table1 is my main table to update and Table2 is the
table that it will update from.

Table2 is just a temporary table I will import monthly just
to update Table1.

 

Both tables have 2 pk/fk (userID and leaveDate).

Table1 has many of the same userID, but all different dates.

Table2 has only one instance of each userID

 

Example:

 

Table1

userID             leaveDate        other1              other2

1                      1/1/06              6                      14

1                      2/1/06              2                      12

1                      3/1/06              <NULL>         <NULL>

2                      1/1/06              43                    21

2                      2/1/06              15                    34

2                      3/1/06              <NULL>         <NULL>

 

Table2

userID             leaveDate        other1              other2

1                      3/1/06              35                    18

2                      3/1/06              12                    19

 

So Table 2 should update Table1.other1 AND Table1.other2
where userID AND leaveDate are equal
