Writing Alternative Query For Inner Joins
Jun 19, 2007
Hello....
i have 4 tables in a databse(tab1,tab2,tab3,tab4). id is the attribute of TAB1 and id also foreign key of all the tables.....That mean id attribute exists on all the tables........so when i want to query to more than 1 table , i have to go for Joins...basically i am using innerjoin.........
Can u tell me is there any other way to find the same output as the innerjoin......without using the keyword INNER JOIN
for example ......SELECT * FROM TAB1 INNER JOIN (TAB2 INNERJOIN TAB3 ON TAB2.ID=TAB3.ID) ON TAB1.ID=TAB2.ID
another query........
SELECT *FROM TAB1,TAB2,TAB3 WHERE (TAB1.ID=TAB2.ID) AND (TAB2.ID=TAB3.ID) AND (TAB3.ID=TAB1.ID)
above queries are same or not??????????

Hi,
Hope someone could help me in revising a long running query. Here is the query
select *
from table1
where classid is null
and productid not in (
select productid
from table1
where classid = 67)
In here table1 could have several occurance of productid in which productid could have different classid. The possible values of classid are: NULL,1,2,3,67. Basically I am looking for all records whose classid is null but should never had an instance in table1 where its classid is 67.
Do you have something like a "join" statment that will only include all records in the left table that is not in the right table?
Hope someone could help me with this. Thanks in advance.

I need assistance on writing a particular query:
I need to be able to filter out duplicates that have different values in a particular field.
For example, I have a table that contains the following:
Code:
WBS1 WBS2 WBS3 Amount Section
123 13 00 475 F
123 13 00 0 L
123 21 01 125 C
123 24 03 50 L
I need to filter out the first two lines because they have the same values for the first three columns but the last column under 'Section' has different values.
Can someone help me?
Thanks

Hi Friends,
I need help on writing an optimized query for the following problem..
Consider a table with columns "Date Emp1 Emp2"
Date Emp1 Emp2
1-feb 1 . . 2
2-feb 3 . . 4
3-feb 6 . . 1
4-feb 1 . . 2
5-feb 1 . . 5
6-Feb 5 . . 7
Now, I want search for records with employee id 1 in a way that if column emp1 contains 1 then I want the data in column emp2, and if column emp2 contains 1, then I want data in column emp1.
The output has to be a single column with no duplicate values. In the above example, for employee id 1, the output would be, 2,5 and 6 only.
This table has lakhs of records. I have to scan both columns for a given employee id. What will be the most optimized way to retrieve the data faster. Also, do I need to restructure this table for faster data retrieval?
I have indexes on emp1 and emp2 columns. Do we need union here and if yes, what is the best optimized query for the same?

Hello,
I have a database containing 2 tables:
the first one called "weeks" has 4 columns: id, week number (ex:
2007/01), start date(ex:01/01/2007), end date(ex: 07/01/2007)
the second one is called "tests" and has 5 columns: index, date, name,
test name, duration
my goal: I want to make a query to get rows containing 3 columns:
week number,
name,
dates = date1, date2, etc.,
tests=test1, test2, etc.,
total duration of test for the given week and given person
To be clear, I am trying to get per week a summary of names with the
tests they did and how long total it lasted. The first tables is just
here to get the week number, given the test date.
My current query returns a list of all tests (table 2) with an added
column of the week number and looks like this:
SELECT date, initials, test, [hours outside 8-19], [Week number] FROM
tests, weeks WHERE date BETWEEN [start date] AND [end date]
What I need now is to have one line per person and per week with their total of hours for the week and the list of tests for the same week. I tried lots of things but does not know to get to my goal. Could
someone please help me?
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance

Hello,I am trying to write a query and getting a little confused.My problem:I send enquiries to partners from 12:00am to 11:59pm each day. I have tenpartners, and each partner has a different daily limit. In my partner table(Table1), I have a columnm for the Daily Enquiry Limit called "DailyCap". Ialso have a second table (Table2) which counts how many enquiries a partnerhas had and assigns a date stamp.So, my query needs to:Select PARTNERwhere Table2.PartnerCount is less than Table1.DailyCapAND where Table2.TimeStamp between 12:00am TODAY and 11:59pm TODAY.This should hopefully then select any partner who hasent yet reached thedaily cap between midnight start and 24 hours later.Any odeas how to write this query using proper SQL?

I have a database that contains projects and information about the projects.
So, for example:
proj Table
Columns:
project_id
project_name
project_code
Sample Data:
project_id: 1
project_name: Test1
project_code: Alpha6
emp Table
Columns:
employee_id
employee_name
Sample Data:
employee_id: 1
employee_name: david
employee_id:2
employee_name: mike
employee_id:3
employee_name:jason
assign_emp Table
Columns:
project_id = project id from proj table
assign_lab = employee id from emp table
assign_tech = employee id from emp table
assign_tester = employee id from emp table
Sample Data:
project_id: 1
Assign_lab: 1
Assign_tech: 2
Assign_tester: 3
So, I have a table called "proj" that contains the "project_id", "project_name", "project_code" and other various information (not related to my current task). I then have a master employee table called "emp". This contains information about the employees, including the "employee_id" and "employee_name". I then have a 3rd table that links the employee to the project. I've called it: "assign_emp". This table contains the "project_id", "assign_lab", "assign_tech", "assign_tester".
I want to create a query to be able to list the following in a single row, For Example:
Project ID | Project Name | Project Code | Lab Employee | Tech Employee | Tester Employee
1 | Test1 | Alpha6 | david | mike | jason
My problem is figuring out how to select multiple employees from a single table based on whether they are assigned to the project or not. As far as I got was:
Select proj.project_id, proj.project_name, proj.project_code, emp.employee_name as 'Lab Employee' from proj inner join assign_emp on proj.project_id = assign_emp.project_id inner join emp on assign_emp.assign_lab = emp.employee_id where proj.project_id = 1
Any help figuring out the query would be great!

Could someone please help me out? I need to write a sql stored proc to query the following table.My SQL experience is very week. If someone can help me with this, I will be happy to pay you $40 foryour help.
I need the proc to do the following:1.) For every Superintendent in a region, country state and county; return the state name, superintendent name, the county name and and a string which is a comma delimited list of schools they supervise. See the sample output italicised and bold.
So the big challenge here is to also return a string that is a concatenation of school names for a particularSuperintendent in a given state and county. For example: East,Kennedy,Apolo,Morrison.
So basically the stored proc should accept input parameters of the Region, Country, State, and County
Here is the data table:
REGION COUNTRY STATE SUPER_INTENDENT PHONE_NO SCHOOL County
NA USA Texas Mike Andrews 789-3614 East LakeNA USA Texas Mike Andrews 789-3614 Kennedy LakeNA USA Texas Mike Andrews 789-3614 Apolo LakeNA USA Texas Mike Andrews 789-3614 Morrison LakeNA USA Texas Amy Markson 789-2134 Anderson MaylorNA USA Texas Amy Markson 789-2134 Molina MaylorNA USA Texas Amy Markson 789-2134 Polima MaylorNA USA Ohio Terry Ellis 966-8314 Kingston KeelNA USA Ohio Terry Ellis 966-8314 Martin KeelNA USA Ohio Terry Ellis 966-8314 Eastmore KeelNA USA Ohio Terry Ellis 966-8314 Canondale Keel
Here is the sample output the way it will appear on a web form:
State:Texas County:Lake
Mike Andrews East,Kennedy,Apolo,Morrison 789-3614
County:Maylor
Amy Markson789-2134 Anderson,Molina,Polima
State:Ohio County:Keel
Terry Ellis Kingston,Martin,Eastomore,Keel

Hi All,
For one of our projects, we are supposed to write a query builder to display reports in tabular format. For the filter criteria ( i.e where clause ) user can select from a list of predefined columns and assign conditions to it. For example, user can select 'CustomerName' as the column and specify condition where name begines with 'A'. Similarly he can also select ouput columns
Problem
The columns that user selects can come from different tables. We are planning to store mapping between tables and columns and also their primary and foreign keys in an xml file. But I would want to understand how to build the join clause.
For example, say there are 4 tables customer, customer address, order, and items. Say user wants the number of items purchased by each customer who stays in 'Delhi'.
1. In output column he selects customer.name and count(items.id)
2. In filter criteria he selects address.city = 'delhi'
How would the query builder know that to join customer and items, order also has to be joined. Any pointers would be helpful.

I am not very familiar with the syntax of MS SQL and I am trying to write a stored procedure which would do a search and return matching records.
This is what I need to achieve:
for instance I create a form with 4 text fields
- First Name
- Last Name
- Employee ID
- Date
I am interested in writing a stored procedure that would run a select query based on the input in the text fields
e.g.
- if the user enters First Name and the Last Name (leaving Employee ID and Date fields blank) query should be something like
select * from Employee where FirstName like @FirstName and LastName like @LastName
- or if the user enters only the Employee ID stored procedure should run a query similar to
select * from Employee where EmployeeID like @EmployeeID

Hi
I have two product tables in two different databases, both contain thousands of records. I have to write a query that suggests matches on similar codes, and have come up with:
SELECT TB1.product, TB2.product
FROM TB1
JOIN (select distinct product
from db2.dbo.TB2) as TB2 --this table has PK of product and warehouse
ON TB2.product LIKE '%' + TB1.product+'%'
which DOES work, but because the table have many rows,takes time to do it... is there a way of rewritting this query, so it gives a faster result?
Thanks in advance...

I am using a Table Many Times in Left Outer Joins and Inner Joins for various Conditions,
is there anyway of writing a query using minimal Table usage, instead of Recurring all the time.

Hi all,Just after some help with a query (Stored Procedure) I've managed to get wrapped round my head.The DB is as such:
COMPANY
Company_id
Company_name
COMPANY_GROUP
Group_id
Group_name
USER
User_id
User_name
Bridging tables
COMPANY_GROUP_BRIDGE
company_id
group_id
USER_COMPANY_BRIDGE
user_id
company_id Basically, the only parameter I have for the query is a User_id.I need to get the Group linked to the User and return all the companies within that group. I've
tried reading up on all the join types again but have just got this
completely wrapped round my neck. I keep thinking along the lines of
SELECT all the companies linked to all the groups linked to all the
companies linked to the User_id :s I must be able to do
this without using two Company tables...?
Any help much appreciated,Pete

I have
Categories table with CategoryID, Title, CategoryParentID columns
Questions table with QuestionID, Text columns
CategoriesQuestions table with CategoryID, QuestionID columns
Now I want to make the query which takes QuestionID and return all Categories of that provided QuestionID.
I already have made that query in 2 different styles.
First I make an Inner Join to retrieve the results
Select Categories.* from Categories Inner Join CategoriesQuestiosn on Categories.CategoryID = CategoriesQuestions.CategoryID where CategoriesQuestions.QuestionID = 1
Second I make a sub query to retrive the results.
Select * from Categories where CategoryID In (Select CategoryID From CategoriesQuestions where QuestionID = 1)
Now I am asking what is the better one in respect to performance.
And please provide any other query if you have.

I have the following:

when p.security_price = '0' then p.cost
else
(p.security_price * p.quantity)
end) as MV,p.position_date,p.quantity,p.cost,p.acm_ctf_mtf_price
from positions p
left join BloombergEquityData b on p.security_id = b.ID_CUSIP
left join account_detail ad on p.account_id = ad.account_id
left join metavanteclasscodes mc on p.security_id = mc.cusip
left join MacgregorSecurityMaster ms on p.security_id = ms.cusip
left join TobaSecurityWarehouse tw on p.security_id = tw.cusip
where p.position_date = '03/05/2008' and
((ad.investment_authority_id in ('2','3') and ad.bank in ('98','7R')) or ad.bank = '9W')-- and ad.account_number = '41G006012'
group byad.account_number,ad.account_short_name,p.security_id,
ms.name,b.NAME,p.security_price,p.position_date,ad.bank,mc.classcode,p.quantity,p.cost,p.acm_ctf_mtf_price,isnull(b.NAME,isnull(tw.name,ms.name))
order by ad.account_number,p.security_id
For a given day, in this example 3/5 if I were to just select all the records I would get back around 550,000. If I put the filter on where I tell it to just show me one account its snappy. If I remove that filter and have it show me all the accounts it take forever. Here is the layout of my positions table where i am pulling the majority of the information:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[positions](
[account_id] [int] NOT NULL,
[security_id] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[position_date] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL,
[quantity] [decimal](18, 5) NOT NULL,
[cost] [decimal](18, 5) NULL,
[security_price] [decimal](18, 5) NULL,
[acm_ctf_mtf_price] [decimal](18, 9) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_positions] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[account_id] ASC,
[position_date] ASC,
[security_id] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
My questions is if you can identify any reason why the query might take more than 10 minutes (actually still running after 10 minutes) to complete when I have it bring me back all the records, not sure if its a lack of indexes or what, but was hoping for some suggestions on what I might be missing. I apologize if I havent included enough information, still learning how to troubleshoot the performance side of things.
