When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view. Using third technique i.e. Select Into, I have observed the sort order is again different in the resulting table. My question is what is the difference in mechanisim of query analyzer, bcp, and select into. Thanks
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).
To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value ----------- ----- colB Â Â Â Â 123 colA Â Â Â Â XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly...

I have information on clothes in a table that I want to select out to a result set in a different structure - I suspect that this will include some kind of pivot (or cross-join?) but as I've never done this before I'd appreciate any kind of help possible.
Current structure is:
Colour Size Quantity ----------------------- Red 10 100 Red 12 200 Red 14 300 Blue 10 400 Blue 12 500 Blue 14 600 Green 10 700 Green 12 800 Green 14 900 Green 16 1000
I want to produce this result set:
Colour Size10 Size12 Size14 Size16 ------------------------------------- Red 100 200 300 0 Blue 400 500 600 0 Green 700 800 900 1000
There could be any number of sizes or colours.
Is this possible? Can anyone give me any pointers?
The value of one of the columns in my table is 14000 lines(678913 characters). The datatype of that column is varchar(MAX). I am doing the following select query but its truncating the results.
select value -- this is truncating the text. from dbo.GUISETTINGS
The length is shown as below when I do the query:
SELECT DATALENGTH(VALUE) from dbo.GUISETTINGS -- return 707951 as the length.Â
I even tried running the query below but still the value is getting truncated. However, if I right-click and select "Save Results As" a file, then it shows all the lines/characters fine.
select value, cast(value as text), cast(value as varchar(max)) from dbo.GUISETTINGS
I am a newbie to SQL Server. I have a problem, in filtering the records returned by a query. I have a table which contains 1 million records, it has a user defined primary key which is of character type. The problem is i need to filter the output of a select query on the table based on two parameters i send to that query. The first parameter will be the starting row number and the second one is the ending row number. I need a procedure to do this.
For Eg: MyProc_GetRowsFromBigTable(startRowNo,endRowNo) should get me only the rows in the specified range.
Hi, Please help me with an SQL Query that fetches all the records from the three tables but a unique record for each forum and topicid with the maximum lastpostdate. I have to bind the result to a GridView.Please provide separate solutions for SqlServer2000/2005. I have three tables namely – Forums,Topics and Threads in SQL Server2000 (scripts for table creation and insertion of test data given at the end). Now, I have formulated a query as below :- SELECT ALL f.forumid,t.topicid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate,(select count(threadid) from threads where topicid=t.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums f FULL JOIN Topics t ON f.forumid=t.forumid FULL JOIN Threads th ON t.topicid=th.topicid GROUP BY t.topicid,f.forumid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate ORDER BY t.topicid ASC,th.lastpostdate DESC Whose result set is as below:-
forumid topicid name author lastpostdate NoOfThreads
5 17 General NULL NULL 0 On modifying the query to:- SELECT ALL f.forumid,t.topicid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate,(select count(threadid) from threads where topicid=t.topicid) as NoOfThreads FROM Forums f FULL JOIN Topics t ON f.forumid=t.forumid FULL JOIN Threads th ON t.topicid=th.topicid GROUP BY t.topicid,f.forumid,t.name,th.author,th.lastpostdate HAVING th.lastpostdate=(select max(lastpostdate)from threads where topicid=t.topicid) ORDER BY t.topicid ASC,th.lastpostdate DESC I get the result set as below:-
forumid topicid name author lastpostdate NoOfThreads

I have an Execute SQL Task that executes "select count(*) as Row_Count from xyztable" from an Oracle Server. I'm trying to assign the result to a variable. However when I try to execute I get an error: [Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "RowCount": "Unsupported data type on result set binding Row_Count.".
Which data type should I use for the variable, RowCount? I've tried Int16, Int32, Int64.

As the topic suggests I need the end results to show a list of shows and their dates ordered by date DESC. Tables I have are structured as follows:
SHOWS showID showTitle
SHOWACCESS showID remoteID
VIDEOS videoDate showID
SQL is as follows:
SELECT shows.showID AS showID, shows.showTitle AS showTitle, (SELECT MAX(videos.videoFilmDate) AS vidDate FROM videos WHERE videos.showID = shows.showID) FROM shows, showAccess WHERE shows.showID = showAccess.showID AND showAccess.remoteID=21 ORDER BY vidDate DESC;
I had it ordering by showTitle and it worked fine, but I need it to order by vidDate. Can anyone shed some light on where I am going wrong?

Having an old webapplication with dynamic build sql queries. Now the database changed completly because of new db model. Queries are getting much more complex now, so i put them into stored procedures.
Now i want to work with the data in an application for sorting an filtering. All the 'WHERE' conditions are build dynamic within the code. For not modifying the whole application i would like to do something like:
SELECT * FROM (EXECUTE sp_someprocedure) WHERE X = 1
I ran a sql somedays ago it gave me result, I ran the same sql today it gave different result. The only difference is that the particular table in the sql is frequently used table with lots of new insert. But the sql I ran is not selecting the new rows, it only deals with already inserted records.
Any idea what will make the sql to give different result from same set of records in different time.
Let's say I have a simple query to return the results of my "Status" table. The query reads as follows:
Code:
Select statusID, statusName From Status
Here is the result set that I am returned:
Code:
22 Associate Member 23 Is Not Paying 24 Exempt 25 Fair Share 26 Member 29 Retiree 30 Staff 32 Fair Share - Self Pay 34 Member - Self Pay
Now, I am using this query for reporting purposes and would like to inject some additional sql that will append one additional row to my result set -- this is what I am calling the 'static' row in the thread title.
In other words, without modifying my database I would like to return the above set of data but with one additional row that has an arbitrary ID with the name "Unknown" or something similar.
again, I want to avoid adding an "Unknown" field directly to my database -- is their any way to "hard code" the selection of this row in my sequal?
Eliko writes "i would like to add a coloumn to a select result, so there will be another coloumn with indexed running numbers for each record. how can i do it?
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLEA WHERE DTRECORD < '1-MARCH-2008'
every times I execute it I get different result.
1st result : 17036986 2nd result : 17037903 3rd result : 17038309
Any idea??? There is no any inserting on TABLEA, so it should not has changes. Is that because of statistic is still updating?? I don't have much knowledge on this so I cannot sure the cause of the problem. Please advise.

I want to export the data from a database and place it on a csv file to be imported to another database. However, I want some columns from the selected data (result of select statement) to be encrypted. What should I do? Is this possible? How do you decrypt the data during import?
The original data is from an MS SQL database to be transferred to a PostgreSQL database.
MS SQL ----- CSV (some columns are encrypted) ---- PostgreSQL (all columns decrypted)
I posted the same question on the mysql category. I wanted to delete it since I just realized today that I posted it on the wrong category but seems like there is no way I can delete.
