Choose A Column Dynamically

I want to choose a column dynamically depending on a session variable.
In other words, each customer has a different price level. so I need to choose the column that corresponds to thier price level in thier customer record
Any help is appreciated.
below is my futile attempt
SelectCommand="SELECT cove.CATALOG.ITEM_NO,cove.catalog."& <%#= session("pl") %> & ", cove.CATALOG.DESCRIPTION, cove.CATALOG.DESCRIPTION2, cove.CATALOG.DESCRIPTION3, cove.PRODLINE.DESCRIPTION AS Expr1, cove.CATALOG.GRP, cove.COMPANY.PRL, cove.COMPANY.COMPANY FROM cove.CATALOG INNER JOIN cove.COMPANY ON cove.CATALOG.WEB_STATUS <>'[I]' cove.COMPANY.I LEFT OUTER JOIN cove.PRODLINE ON cove.CATALOG.PRODLINE = cove.PRODLINE.CODE WHERE (cove.COMPANY.COMPANY = @company) AND (cove.CATALOG.GRP <> '[ACC]')">

I have to write a large data migration script to move data from one SQL Server database to another. Is there any way to dynamically specify the server and database name? I would like to do something like the following, (but this does not seem to work):
Delete From [@ServerName].[@ImportToDatabase].[MyTable]
Any help appreciated

Hi,
I have a table with its ID field set as an Identity column with "seed" and "increment" set to 1. Now, I have rows in there that I don't want to change. I'd like the next addtitions to the table to start at a specific value for their ID columns.
Basically, how can I specify a new starting value for an identity column?
Thanks,
Skip.

Hi,
I want to recalculate some columns in a custom component, due to a formula using a single column as factor. What will be the best way to let the user choose the single column (factor) beneath the columns to work with.
Is there a way to use customproperties other than strings. DropDowns for example. If so, do you know a tutorial oder code snippet?
Thanks

HI chaps
my scenario is that, i have a table in which i have column such as col01,col02,col03....col31
i want to retrieve the records related to that column by specifying the name dynamically (by using loop) as fist three character are same ('col??') and i have to do integer increment in last two character (???01...???31). Is it possible that I can use variable for column name?, if yes how? or is there any other way to achieve this task ?
waiting for your reply
regards

Hey all. I'm trying to create a stored proc that will update a variable column, depending on the parameter I pass it. Here's the stored proc:
CREATE PROCEDURE VoteStoredProc
(
@PlayerID int,
@VoteID int,
@BootNumber nvarchar(50)
)
AS
DECLARE @SQLStatement varchar(255)
SET @SQLStatement = 'UPDATE myTable SET '+ @BootNumber+'='+ @VoteID + ' WHERE (PlayerID = '+ @PlayerID +')'
EXEC(@SQLStatement)
GO
I get the following error:
Syntax error converting the nvarchar value 'UPDATE myTable SET Boot3=' to a column of data type int
The update statement is good, because if I use the stored proc below (hard-coded the column), it works fine.
CREATE PROCEDURE VoteStoredProc
(
@PlayerID int,
@VoteID int,
@BootNumber nvarchar(50)
)
AS
UPDATE
myTable
SET
Boot3 = @VoteID
WHERE
PlayerID = @PlayerID
GO
Is there a way to dynamically choose a column/field to select from? Or is my syntax incorrect..?
Thanks!

I'm trying to create a procedure that can access a column in a table dynamically.<br>
Lets say I have the following table<br>
create table table_items<br>
(rec int identity not null,<br>
item1 int,<br>
item2 int,<br>
item3 int)<br>
and I have a procedure as such
create procedure access_item<br>
@rec int,<br>
@itemindex int,<br>
@item int as<br>
select @item = (select item1 from table_items where rec = @rec)<br>
However, the column I want to access is @itemindex.<br>
If @itemindex = 1, then set @item to item1<br>
if @itemindex = 2, then set @item to item2<br>
if @itemindex = 3, then set @item to item3<br>
I can't use a simple 'if/then' selection, because the number of columns in the table can grow, and I don't want to have to rewrite the procedure everytime a column is added.<br>
How do I do this?<br>
I tried to use an execute command, as such<br>
create procedure access_item_2<br>
@rec int,<br>
@itemindex int,<br>
@item int as<br>
declare @sql varchar(255)<br>
select @sql = "select @item = (select item" + convert(varchar(2), itemindex) + " from table_items where rec = @rec)"<br>
execute (@sql)<br>
but when the procedure runs, I get the following error:<br>
'@item is not a valid variable.'<br>
What else can I do?<br>
Please e-mail me at sam@microcsl

We have a query in which we have data in fields called TS1Min, TS1Max, TS1Avg, TS2Min, TS2Max, TS2Avg etc.
We have a different table in which we define that vale of TS1, TS2, as an example TS1 might equal RED, TS2 might equal BLUE.
We have written a query that puts TS1Min, TS1Max, TS1Avg, TS2Min, TS2Max, TS2Avg in a temp table #TEMPA
and we also put the values of RED and BLUE in another temp table #TEMPB
now we want to select * from #TEMPA but rename the headings TS1Min to display RED-TS1Min, TS1Max as RED-TS1Max, TS1Avg as RED-TS1Avg etc...
any ideas on how to do this

I got a table which gets populated by stor proc where we pivot the Sum(Balance of mortgage) by YYYYMM for the whole duration of the loan term.
I have a requirement to rename the column header where the previous month end balance period be renamed to P0.
if we run the report today, then the balance as at 31/09 should show under column P0 which now shows under 201509 and then P0 keeps shifting with each month run.

Hi All,
The current/ Base table would be like below,
Products
level
Date
N1
b
11/5/2007
N2
p
11/6/2007
N3
p
11/7/2007
N4
p
11/14/2007
N5
b
11/15/2007
N6
p
11/23/2007
Expected Result.
<=11/7/2007
<= 11/14/2007
<=11/21/2007
b
1
1
2
p
2
3
4
Total
3
4
6
As you can see, the above table has cumulative data.
1. It calculates the number of Products submitted till a particular date- weekly
2. The date columns should increase dynamically(if the dates in base table increases) each time the query is executed
For ex: the next date would be 11/28/2007
I tried something like, it gives me count of b level and p level products by week
declare @date1 as datetime
select @date1 = '6/30/2007'
while (@date1 != (select max(SDate) from dbo.TrendTable))
begin
set @date1 = @date1 + 7
select Level, count(Products)
from
dbo.TrendTable
where SDate < @date1
group by Level
end
what I think is required is a pivot that dynamically adds the columns for increase in date range.
/Pls suggest if any other way of achieving it.
Pls help!!!
Thanks & Regards

I have a production server log shipping to a secondary server every 30 minutes (both SQL 2000), which the second server is used for both a warm standby server and for reporting from users. Issue: the log shipping locks the DB so reporting can't be done until the load is finished, the load to the second set of databases has taken up to 15 minutes to finish allowing the users only 15 minutes to run reports, this is not acceptable. The server also needs to be used for DR.
I am looking for another solution, I can't use Transactional Log shipping as not all of the tables in the databases have a primary key identified. So, I am looking for a real-time or near real-time reporting server that is more available to running reports and a warm standby server for Disaster recovery. I am trying to figure out what SQL Server 2000 has to provide (or even 2005 or 2008?) or I am also looking at some third party software, but not sure what is the best for a reasonable price.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks....JB

Hi All,
I have a dilemn:
On one side, I have a column C1 which could be a primary key because it is never null, the value is unique and identify the record. The problem is its a char type and its lenght can be close to 30.
Then, I've planned to add another column C2 of int type as PK. But then I need to add a unique constraint index on C1. Does it improve performance anyway?
Thanks

(Hard to put a good subject on this one...)
I have a database containing a lot of users and these users can have four different kind of telephone numbers connected to them: "Direct phone", "Switchboard", "Cell phone", "Home phone". The phone numbers are stored in a separate table. Some users have 0 phone numbers, some have 1, some have 3 etc.
Now I have to transfer the data to another database with a strict table structure and here the table that contains the user also should contain the users phone number and an alternative phone number, if the user currently has more than one phone number connected.
This means that if for instance we have three or more phone numbers connected to one user, we can maximum transfer two of them. This is not a big issue though...
We have ranked the importance of the phone numbers in the order as I presented them above.
What I do in my T-SQL query is to do a ISNULL() and see if the user has "Direct phone" connected, if not I check for the next type and so on.
Now to my problem! Can anyone give me a suggestion of how to write the code for the extraction of the Alternative phone? What I need to do is to check if there is a "Direct phone" connected to the user, if so I should NOT chose that but the next phone number that I find.
