there is another way to get the alphabetical value for a number other than using a case statement?
example:
Count = 1 That's = A
Count = 5 That's = E
Count = 8 That's = H
and so on I know a case could do this but wondering if there is a nice function or simple statement that would do this on the fly?
I am using the following query
select top(5) COUNT(incident),name from company_info group by name
order by COUNT(incident) desc ;
to get most repeated incidents.
countincident
17ghi
15def
14abc
11z
9x
I want to get the same output with out using order by query.
In the database, there is Date, Store#, Item#, and %Total Sales. In some cases, the same item# for the same date may be given more than one value for '% of Total Sales'. (For some reason this is a valid business scenario that happens rarely, but it happens.)
In that situation only, the requirement is to sum the two values together into one line. So if Item# 123 has a line with a value of .05%, and another line with a value of .08%, I need to sum those two values into one line for Item #123 that has a %Total of .13%. ONLY when an item has more than one percentage assigned, those percentages should be summed. Otherwise, if an item# has only one percentage value assigned, we just want to see that value.
Basically, I would like to implement logic that would work like this:
SELECT Date, Store#, Item#,
CASE WHEN Count(%Total Sales) >1 THEN Sum(%Total Sales)
ELSE %Total Sales
END
FROM (some tables and joins)
GROUP BY Date, Store#, Item#
However, I'm not sure how to craft it so that I don't get a syntax error (this query produces errors).
Hi~, I have 3 questions about memory based bulk copy.
1. What is the limitation count of IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true)?
For example, how much insert row at below sample?(the max value of nCount)
for(i=0 ; i<nCount ; i++)
{
pIFastLoad->InsertRow(hAccessor, (void*)(&BulkData));
}
2. In above code sample, isn't there method of inserting prepared array at once directly(BulkData array, not for loop)
3. In OLE DB memory based bulk copy, what is the equivalent of below's T-SQL bulk copy option ?
BULK INSERT database_name.schema_name.table_name FROM 'data_file' WITH (ROWS_PER_BATCH = rows_per_batch, TABLOCK);
-------------------------------------------------------
My solution is like this. Is it correct?
// CoCreateInstance(...);
// Data source
// Create session
m_TableID.uName.pwszName = m_wszTableName;
m_TableID.eKind = DBKIND_NAME;
DBPROP rgProps[1];
DBPROPSET PropSet[1];
rgProps[0].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
rgProps[0].colid = DB_NULLID;
rgProps[0].vValue.vt = VT_BSTR;
rgProps[0].dwPropertyID = SSPROP_FASTLOADOPTIONS;
rgProps[0].vValue.bstrVal = L"ROWS_PER_BATCH = 10000,TABLOCK";
PropSet[0].rgProperties = rgProps;
PropSet[0].cProperties = 1;
PropSet[0].guidPropertySet = DBPROPSET_SQLSERVERROWSET;
if(m_pIOpenRowset)
{
if(FAILED(m_pIOpenRowset->OpenRowset(NULL,&m_TableID,NULL,IID_IRowsetFastLoad,1,PropSet,(LPUNKNOWN*)&m_pIRowsetFastLoad)))

return FALSE;
}
}
else

I have x amount of tests for a person on a particular day. There are criteria to invalidate a test. I can filter all the bad tests away, but now I need to only accept 2 valid tests per day, even if there are more tests. The tests are filtered according to person ID and then put in order by date. I need to accept the first 2 valid test based on the criteria and reject the others. Any suggestions

I am trying to create an asp page that will update an Access 2000 database. I need to update records if the user exists and create a new record if the user does not exist. Most of the variables are pulled from a separate "post" form.
I am using 2 pieces of info to find duplicates, as employee numbers can be assigned to multiple employees. Right now I have the page check for a duplicate employee id number then check for a duplicate last name. Unfortunately it is running each check separately, so if the last name is duplicated anywhere, it is sending a duplicated value.
here is the chunk of code in question... all RF_variables are request.form variables
cnt="SELECT COUNT(emp_id) AS Xnum FROM " & RF_course
cnt=cnt & " WHERE emp_id='" & RF_emp_id & "'"
set again=conn.Execute(cnt)
dup=again("Xnum")
if dup>=1 then
cnt="SELECT COUNT(lname) AS Xnum FROM " & RF_course
cnt=cnt & " WHERE lname='" & RF_lname & "'"
set again=conn.Execute(cnt)
dupl=again("Xnum")
if dupl=1 then
upd="UPDATE " & RF_course & " SET "

I have a fact table with a create time dimension and an expiration time dimension. I'd like to have a calculated member that would compare the (count for create time) / (count with that expiration time). I already have these counts as measures.
I would be able to put the create time dimension in the "row fields" area, and see the ratio (calculated above)
over the different create time periods.
Can someone point me in the right direction on how I would create that kind of calculated member? What would the MDX look like?
Thanks for your help
My SQL is very basic. How do I create a query that will accept a parameter, an integer, and based on the integer, locate all the matches in a db?
SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1, tblArticle.ArticleIDFROM tblArticle INNER JOIN tblArticleCategory ON tblArticle.ArticleCatID = tblArticleCategory.ACategoryIDGROUP BY tblArticle.ArticleID
This isn't setting up the query to request a parameter.What am I doing wrong here? I"m trying to get the total number of articles for a particular category ID.
I am trying to write a stored procedure that updates a value in a table based on the sort order. For example, my table has a field "OfferAmount".

Hello,
I need to create a query that will count new cases based on the create date(create_date) and criteria for the groups(The only way to distinguish between the 2 major groups mts and bnb is area!= 'bnb" because everything else is MTS). The sample report I need to create below shows how it needs to be counted weekly, for a 4 month period, for the groups under MTS and BNB. The totals and grand totals can be achieved in the report tool. I want to create variables for the new cases (mts_newcases_sales, mts_newcases_salesd, bnb_newcases_salesd etc)
Ex. MTS sales : (status = 'Calculated' OR status = 'REJECTED') and errorsource != 'marketing' and accountns is null and area != 'BNB'(everything else is MTS)
MTS salesd ; Credit >= '1001' and (status = 'REJECTEDV' or status = 'ACCEPTEDS') and errorsource != 'marketing' and accountnr is null
BNB creditr: Credit < 101 and (status = 'SUBMITTED' OR status = 'REJECTEDS' OR status = 'REJECTEDA' OR STATUS = 'ACCEPTEDC')

Hello again,
I'm hoping someone can help with with a task I've been given. I need to write a trigger which will act effectively as a method of automatically distributing of incoming call ticket records. See DDL below for creation of the Assignment table, which holds information on the call ticket workload.
Code Snippet
CREATE TABLE #Assignment
(CallID INT IDENTITY(1500,1) PRIMARY KEY,
AssignmentGroup VARCHAR(25),
Assignee VARCHAR(25)
)
GO
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Jim Smith')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Donald Duck')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('Service Desk', 'Joe Bloggs')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Donald Duck')
INSERT #Assignment (AssignmentGroup, Assignee)
VALUES ('PC Support', 'Mickey Mouse')
GO
SELECT COUNT(CallID) AS [Total Calls], AssignmentGroup, Assignee
FROM #Assignment
GROUP BY AssignmentGroup, Assignee
ORDER BY COUNT(CallID) DESC , AssignmentGroup, Assignee
What I need to do is write a trigger for on INSERT to automatically update the Assignee column with the name of the person who currently has the least active calls. For example, using the data above, the next PC Support call will go to Mickey Mouse, and the next two Service Desk calls will go to Jim Smith.
So, the logic for the trigger would be
UPDATE #Assignment
SET Assignee = (SELECT Assignee FROM #Assignment WHERE COUNT(CallID) = MIN(COUNT(CallID))
But that's only the logic, and obviously it doesn't work with the syntax being nothing like correct.
Does any one have an idea or pointers as to how I should go about this?
Grateful for any advice, thanks
matt

Because of a limitation on a piece of software I'm using I need to take a large varchar field and force a carriage return/linebreak in the returned sql. Allowing for a line size of approximately 50 characters, I thought the approach would be to first find the 'spaces' in the data, so as to not split the line on a real word. achieve.

Hi, I have a table whose Identifying column is not an integer but rather a manually entered id. (i.e. 106F, 106-09, G11 etc.) When sorted ascending, a G11 will come before a G2 in the list, 106-11 before 106-2, etc.I would like to insert a new column in the database or use some kind of function when sorting the database to ensure that the list in returned in the proper order. Any ideas?Much appreciated...
View 16 Replies View RelatedI have been discussing with some coworkers whether or not it makes sense to invest the time to alphabetize the column names in our tables (aside from the PK and possibly FK's that could be listed first). My reasoning for doing so would make it much easier to scan the list of columns in a table that I was not familiar with to see if it contained a particular column (i.e. meeting_id). I was just wondering if this is common at all in our industry for new DB design (I realize why legacy systems would not be ordered in this way). I remember seeing MSFT designed their tables this way when Site Server first came out.
An argument was made that when you add a new column you would insert it into the appropriate location and in order to make this happen, EP needs to create a temp table, move the data and consequently lock the table until the data has been transferred. While this is correct, I do not see this negative as outweighing the positive experience achieved by scanning a list of fields in a table in a more orderly fashion.
Thoughts?
Apologies if this has been done before, but I couldn't find a completed example. If anyone has time, I'd love to see some improvements...

/*
function:
numeric_order
arguments:
@numeric_string - a string of mixed alpha and numeric values
@max_digits- the maximum length of digits to compare
description:
Function numeric_order creates an orderable string based on the "numeric" value of @numeric_string
which can be ordered alphabetically.
Ideally the strings should really be broken up into constituent parts and ordered properly,
but occasionally you come across data where it's just not worth the while.
eg
select title from regulations order by title
returns:
Regulation 1(a) section 3
Regulation 11 section 100(b)
Regulation 11 section 2(c)(iii)
Regulation 2 section 1
Regulation 21 section 3 (b)
whereas
select title from regulations order by dbo.numeric_order(title,10)
returns:
Regulation 1(a) section 3
Regulation 2 section 1
Regulation 11 section 2(c)(iii)
Regulation 11 section 100(b)
Regulation 21 section 3 (b)
which is the order most users would expect.
NOTE: because the original strings are mixed, the user may include alphas between digits which are to be
sorted alphabetically, which means the string must keep all alpha parts of the original string as is.
expected output:
select dbo.numeric_order('Part 1(b) subsection 1',4)
returns
Part 0001(b) subsection 0001

Hello
I know how I can display a list of names in alphebetical order on my website:
Select L as [Last Name]
From Name_CatEWhere Education = 'yes'Order ByLName ASC
However, to make things a little more orginised I would like to view my database table column in alphabetical order also, but ithie code does not work within my database.
What do I need to change in the following code, to view my database table column in a-z order?
SELECT LName FROM Name_CatEORDER BY LName ASC

i am working on a small project, that I have found that someone is storing a float as a varchar(). But there are also some actual words in the same column.
I am trying to determine how I can select only the rows with alphabetical characters in that column.
Some of the data is:
1.5008e+015
1.54453e+015
1.51922e+015
1.51922e+015
1.52243e+015
but there is a mix of alphabetical characters in there as well.
1.51922e+015
1.53122e+015
FMCIT
ABCNP
FMCPNG
1.62073e+015
1.6127e+015
I want to be able to select the rows with only the alphabetical characters. There is a huge mix, and I am assuming that every first letter is one of the 26 alphabetical character used. How can I write a query to use a REGEX to select any and all rows that cannot be CAST as a Float? I have nill to no experience using REGEX.
In SQL 2000, when you generated an SQL script for a database, it was logical and the tables in the script were in alphabetical order. In SQL 2005 they are all mixed up. Am I missing something?
Thanks

Here is my code
@syear nvarchar(50)
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
[Code] ....
Using the scripting wizard in SQL Server 2005 database engine, I have been able to script all my DDL out to a flat file which is great; however, when I scripts for instance all views I would like to have the script in alphabetical order by view name, is there a value I can set to accomplish this?
Thanks
How to count the number of values that exist in a row based on the values from an array of numbers. Basically the the array of numbers I want to look for are in row 1 of table [test 1] and I want to search for them and count the "out of" in table [test 2]. Excuse me for not using the easiest way to convey my question below. I guess in short I have 10 numbers and like to find how many of those numbers exist in each row. short example:
Table Name: test1
Columns: m1 (int), m2 (int), m3 (int) >>> etc
Array/Row1: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
------
Table Name: test2
Columns: n1 (int), n2 (int), n3 (int), n4 (int), n5 (int)
Row 1: 3, 8, 18, 77, 12
Row 2: 1, 4, 5, 7,18, 21
Row 3: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
