i'm trying to run an append query using data from 2 tables. i want to replace nulls with blanks ('') bellow is my statment. when i run this statment with out the iif(isnull)) statmentes the query works fine. is there another way of replacing my nulls with blanks.
Thank you,
Thomas
insert into tblcustomers (cusName, cusNumber, Active, cusContact, cusCrLimit,cusTerms)
SELECT dbo.tblCustomersIOA.CustomerName, dbo.tblCustomersIOA.Cust#,
dbo.tblCustomersIOA.Active,
iif(isnull(dbo.tblCustomersIOA.Contact),'',dbo.tbl CustomersIOA.Contact) ,
dbo.tblCustomersIOA.CreditLimit,
FROM dbo.tblCustomerNotesIOA RIGHT OUTER JOIN
dbo.tblCustomersIOA LEFT OUTER JOIN
WHERE (dbo.tblCustomersIOA.CountryID = 1) AND (dbo.tblCustomersIOA.StateID = 2);
Hey, I'm taking an intro SQL Server class, and I have a pretty simple homework assignment. We were provided with a DB and asked to write several SELECT statements. However, I'm stuck up one of the questions. Here is the question: 12.Create a SELECT statement that displays all employees and their Qualifications. Display that individuals with no Qualifications as having ‘NoQual’. Hint: Use a function to determine this ‘empty’ field using ISNULL.
Here is what I have:
SELECT FNAME + ' ' + LNAME AS 'Employee Name', ISNULL(QUALID, 'NoQual') AS 'Qualifications' FROM EMPLOYEE, QUALIFICATION WHERE EMPLOYEE.QUALID = QUALIFICATION.QUALID;
However, I do not get any results that have a NULL value in the QUALID column. Here is the code for the DB:
INSERT INTO position VALUES (1, 'President'); INSERT INTO position VALUES (2, 'Manager'); INSERT INTO position VALUES (3, 'Programmer'); INSERT INTO position VALUES (4, 'Accountant'); INSERT INTO position VALUES (5, 'Salesman');
INSERT INTO emplevel VALUES (1, 1, 25000); INSERT INTO emplevel VALUES (2, 25001, 50000); INSERT INTO emplevel VALUES (3, 50001, 100000); INSERT INTO emplevel VALUES (4, 100001, 500000);
INSERT INTO qualification VALUES (1, 'Doctorate'); INSERT INTO qualification VALUES (2, 'Masters'); INSERT INTO qualification VALUES (3, 'Bachelors'); INSERT INTO qualification VALUES (4, 'Associates'); INSERT INTO qualification VALUES (5, 'High School');
INSERT INTO dept VALUES (10, 'Finance', 'Charlotte', 123); INSERT INTO dept VALUES (20, 'InfoSys', 'New York', 543); INSERT INTO dept VALUES (30, 'Sales', 'Woodbridge', 135); INSERT INTO dept VALUES (40, 'Marketing', 'Los Angeles', 246);
okay, using isnull function we could replace null value.. but i want to do opposite, i want to replace if it's NOT null.. i tried notisnull also cannot..
Note : this is for select statement SELECT isnull(d.ClientID,'-') FROM blabla
How to replace something if it's not null SELECT isNOTnull(d.ClientID, '-')
SELECT JS_ID = ISNULL(ID.JS_ID,'-') FROM dbo.FM_INVOICE I, dbo.FM_INVOICE_DETAILS ID WHERE I.INVOICE_ID = ID.INVOICE_ID AND WO_ID = '-'--ISNULL(@GetLatest, '-')
is there any mistake i made? because it still return NULL when no data is found. how do i make it return '-' if a null is found
I'm constructing a single string of several counts with concatenated labels using SQL and want to not show zeros (or their labels). Is there a function within an SQL statement that will let me do this? ISNULL() sort of does this, but I really need to test for zero instead of NULL to eliminate noise data from the string.
The problem is that when a NULL data comes for COLUMN1, it doesn't insert the value of COLUMN2 as the formula estipulates. It looks like is not understanding de ISNULL function. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.
Dear GroupJust wondered how I can avoid the CHAR(32) to be inserted if @String1 is NULL?SET @String3 = ISNULL(@String1,'') + CHAR(32) + ISNULL(@String2,'')Thanks very much for your expertise and efforts!Best Regards,Martin
I have a problem that some of the data I reciave from the DB is null. I would like to replace it with '0'. I used the function IsNull on the SQL statment. The problem is that I recaived a false/true values.. Is there an option to get the real data?
this is the SQL:
SELECT OrderDetails.itemID, OrderDetails.itemName, OrderDetails.quantityToPick, OrderDetails.quantityPicked, OrderDetails.colorDescription, OrderDetails.colorDetails, OrderDetails.bases, OrderDetails.diameter, OrderDetails.axis, OrderDetails.referenceNum, OrderDetails.remarks, Isnull(Stock.stockQuantity, 0) AS stockQuantity, OrderDetails.quantityOrdered, OrderDetails.status FROM OrderDetails LEFT OUTER JOIN Stock ON OrderDetails.itemID = Stock.itemID WHERE (OrderDetails.storeID = @storeIDTemp)
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Parm1] AS [Member].[Member Deceased Year].currentmember.member_caption MEMBER [Measures].[ResultValue] AS ([Month].[Calendar].[Month].&[20150531], [Measures].[Member Count]) SELECT ({[Measures].[Parm1],[Measures].[ResultValue]}) ON COLUMNS, ORDER([Member].[Member Deceased Year].[Member Deceased Year], [Measures].[Parm1], DESC) ON ROWS FROM [TXERSDW]
Now from the Above query I am resulting with NULL as Parm1 values, I need to replace with a value of 12-31-9999 in the Parm1 if there are NULLS.
I'm attempting to use the isnull function to convert null values in a column to a blank. It works on the alpha field but not the numeric and I was wondering what can be done for numeric field conversion.
I'm using IsNULL(<insert something SQL witty here>) to zero out a derived column if there's no return result. When I submit my query in Management Console the results come back perfectly, when I send it over as a stored procedure (as an alter or create) then execute, my last few columns come back 0 not populated as in the query run. Anyone know why this happens?
hi, I am in the process of creating an append query that sends the fields of an open form from my ms access 2000 db to a table in ms sql 2000. I've successfully linked the ms sql tables and created the query to pull data from my form but when i run the append i get a key violation error and nothing gets appended. I know which field is the primary key in ms sql i just don't know how to change my access table to suit, any ideas?
To start I've made my append query simple and it just pulls the contact name. Here's my sql statement if that helps. CODE INSERT INTO dbo_PatientMaster ( PatientFirstName, PatientLastName, PatientAccountNumber ) SELECT [Forms]![Contacts]![FirstName] AS Firstname, [Forms]![Contacts]![LastName] AS [Last], [Contacts]![PatientAccountNumber] AS [Patient Account Number] FROM Contacts, dbo_PatientMaster GROUP BY [Forms]![Contacts]![FirstName], [Forms]![Contacts]![LastName], [Contacts]![PatientAccountNumber]; In access the patient account number is empty and I just created that field in my access table today.
I am doing an A level database project. I need to build a system to deal with ordering and selling products.
I am trying to make an append query that will append all the products bought in my "invoices" table to my "archive" table. I want invoices that are three months old to be transferred the the "archive" table. I have been trying to put a criteria in the query for the Date field but I haven't managed to find an expression that works.
I'm sorry if this is too simple and you guys think im just being stupid. I figured it was worth asking on here!! It's really bugging me.
I'm testing this query and it does not append any new rows from thesource tables unless the destination table is empty.

I need to write a single query that will append the values from one table into another table but I need to update a single field in the table with a static value. What I'm working with is an Access .adp with an SQL 2000 backend. The database is used to track ticket sales, payments, and contact info for season ticket holders. Prior to upsizing, each year the database would be copied and then choice bits modified for the next year.
In other words, the history was in several databases, i.e. db2001, db2002, db2003 and for the current year dbcurrent. I decided to create a historic tables in the current DB rather than have umpteen DBs on my SQL server.
My problem is that I need to create a query that appends to my table the previous years data and then updates the season field to reflect the season that the data came from.
In short, say I have a table named accounts with fields account, customer, addr1, addr2, ..., ticket type and I want it to end up in account_hist with fields account, customer, addr1, addr2, ..., ticket type, SEASON and make the season equal say 8 which represents the 8th season the team has played. I can get both queries to work seperately :D , but for end user ease, I want to perform both actions at the same time :confused: . Can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks
I need to run a query which will pull data from two tables and appendit as one when it displays the result. The data are in two tables. Butthe result set will be identical in terms of number of columns. I wantto display it one set below the other.This is for pay history. From 2003 we have a new payroll system. Till2002 we used to have a different system. But I need to run a querywhich will pull the data for an employee for the last one year. So theinformation is spread out between these two tables. Both these tablesare in SQL Server databases.I want to write a Stored Procedure. I can use Shape/Append but I thinkit doesnt work on QA/Stored Proc. It needs an OLEDB.How can I write the query. I dont want to use temporary tables and doinserts.ThanksGIRISH
Hi All:Being a bit of a nube to MSSQL I could use a little advice. This is thesituation.A client's HDD became full so I backed up, deleted then recreated a blankdatabase (they said they didn't need the stored data).They have now deceided that they want the data again.My plan is to restore the database to a second volume so it can grow as muchas is needed, however, there is now data in the second instance that wouldneed importing to the restored DB.I can restore the backed up db with a different name and reconfigure thesoftware that accesses it but what would be the best method to append therestored DB with the data in the current instance of said DB? Both DBs areidentical.TIAMP
I need to append text to the end of my sql query results.For instance, my query returns a list of user names infirstname.lastname. I need to add @yahoo.com to each record. So theend result should be Join Bytes!. What should byselect statement look like?Any help?
Hi everyone. I have a problem with an append query runing from a small Access database and would very much appreciate some input.
The append query from Access is as follows:
INSERT INTO TransferTable ( Name, Surname, Company, Address1, Address2, [Town/City], County, PostCode, Phone, Fax, Email, [Client type] ) SELECT [Clients].[Name], [Clients].[Surname], [Clients].[Company], [Clients].[Address 1], [Clients].[Address 2], [Clients].[Town/City], [Clients].[County], [Clients].[Post Code], [Clients].[PhoneNumber], [Clients].[FaxNumber], [Clients].[Email Address], [Clients].[ClientType] FROM Clients WHERE [Name]=[Forms]![Client Form]!Name;
This works up to a point. What it does is send the selected data to the TransferTable which is a link table to a sheet in an Excel workbook.
So far so good.
Each time the query is run though, it inserts the selectd data on the line below the previous run, even if the information that was inserted last time was not saved. So on the first run the query will drop the desired information into row A2 of the TransferTable, then even if that is deleted and the changes to the workbook are not saved, the next time the query is run it goes down to row A3, then A4 and so on. no doubt this is the exact point of an append query, but it's really aggravating me.
What I'd like is a query that will get the data into the same row of the TransferTable each time it is run, since another sheet in the Excel workbook runs some calculations based on the data held in the cells of the TransferTable sheet.
I've tried the SQL editor in Excel, but my very limited knowledge has left me completely frustrated. Does anyone have any ideas how I can achieve this outcome before I go completely nuts ?
I don't mind if the query runs from Excel or Access.
I have a SQL Server database running on a local PC which will eventually be scaled up once everything is working.
The Database takes data from an Access database, then the SQL Server aggregates this data into several other tables.
I have used a trigger to run this in SQL Server, once a table in SQL Server is appended with a specific value.
I have tested the trigger to do a simple task, and this works.
I have tested the aggregation query which create 18 seperate tables as well. It takes around 25 minutes to run. These are huge tables
When I use Access to append the final value to start the SQL Server trigger it freezes and eventually times out. I assume this is because it is running the 25minute trigger, and Access has to wait until this is completed before it can proceed.
I was hoping it would trigger SQL Server to run the trigger, then Access could go off and do something else!
Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums
Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.
The query:
INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue ) SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue FROM Colors_Access;
Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.
There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.
I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.
All, Using access 2003 frontend and sql server 2008 backend. I have an append query to insert 80000 from one table to an empty table. I get an error:
"Microsoft Office Access set 0 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and didn't add 36000 record(s) to the table due to key violations, 0 record(s) due to lock violations, and 0 record(s) due to validation rule violations."
I know this error normally comes if there are dups in a field that doesnt allow.
for the query i created i need zeros where ever the filed is blank. i have used count(acc) for selecting the count . can any one help me out with sample query. Thanks in advance
I have two tables, tblMTO and tblIMPORT_MTO. If I import an entire MTOinto the import table I want to create a delta from it (i.e. leave onlythe changed items). I have a view (simplified)SELECT dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.ImportID, dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.MTONo,dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.Rev AS New_Rev, dbo.tblMTO.Rev AS Old_RevFROM dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.tblMTO ON dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.MTONo = dbo.tblMTO.MTONoNow to get all rows where old_rev = new_rev I also want all rows whereboth are null, is the best method to put ISNULL() in the view or toselect from the view using ISNULL in the criteria, e.g.select * from view1 where ISNULL(Old_Rev,0)=ISNULL(new_rev,0)or in the viewCREATE VIEW view1 asSELECT dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.ImportID, dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.MTONo,ISNULL(dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.Rev,0) AS New_Rev, ISNULL(dbo.tblMTO.Rev ASOld_Rev,0)FROM dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.tblMTO ON dbo.tblIMPORT_MTO.MTONo = dbo.tblMTO.MTONo;select * from view1 where Old_Rev=new_rev;
does sql server mobile 2005 support the isnull function? I'm getting an error when I try to use it and I don't know if it is becuase of using the isnull function or not, but when I run the same query on Sql Server 2005 it works fine.
