Hello I am new to SQL Server 2005 and am designing my first database.
In the AdventureWorks sample database the city field is included with the street address where it repeats for each row.
Why would you not put it in a separate table with state/province or a separate table all togeather?
Thanks for your help.
Greetings:
I read with great interest a post on getting hte top 75 per cent by month, but still get through this problem. I have a table containing addresses, city names and state names, Each row has a unique address. I want to get the first ten addresses for each city in each state. I've tried something like the following which didn't work. Suggestions on how to solve the (simple) problem would be appreciated.
Select top (10) city,state,address
from address_list

Quick questiom, I need to Import a table with City and State Information
What are your recomendations? Should I create a Unique Key for them?
CityID, CityName, StateID?
StateID, StateName?
Or can I just store them in a table with one column?
CityName, State
Thanks for your help/
I am searching for the Sql Server Script of all country State and City with the Following type..
For the Country only 2 Columns are there i.e. CountryId and CountryName(CountryId is primary Key)
For the State 3 Columns are there i.e. CountryId, StateId and StateName(StateId is Primary Key and CountryId is Foreign Key)
For the City 3 Columns are there i.e. StateId ,CityId and CityName(CityId is PrimaryKey and StateId is foreign Key).
I need this type of Script with Column name.
I need formulating a view through which I can create a an output like below image -
Monthly Table
NUM STATUS ACTIVITYCODE
HAX603 Completed 0x45845a
HAX317 Completed 0x112z44
HAX465 Completed 0x1155x4
HAX523 Completed 0x124c69
Season Table
NUM STARTMONTH STARTDAY ENDMONTH EMDDAY
HAX603 JULY 1 OCTOBER 31
HAX317 DECEMBER 1 DECEMBER 31
HAX317 MARCH 1 MARCH 31
HAX317 July 1 July 28
[Code] ...
Final Output
NUM STATUS ACTIVITYCODE <SEASONS>
HAX603 Completed 0x45845a 1 JULY - 31 OCTOBER, 1 DECEMBER - 31 DECEMBER
HAX317 Completed 0x112z44 1 DECEMBER - 31 DECEMBER, 1 MARCH - 31 MARCH, 1 July - 30 July
HAX465 Completed 0x1155x4 1 MARCH - 31 MARCH, 1 July - 28 July, 1 August - 30 August
HAX523 Completed 0x124c69 1 November - 30 November
I have written a query to join the values of multiple field, but lacking in as how will I formulate a view which will check for the duplicate values of Num fields and merge there values in a single field like season.
select num, (CAST(startday AS VARCHAR(3)) + ' ' + startmonth + ' - ' + CAST(endday AS VARCHAR(3)) + ' ' + endmonth)AS Season from seasons;

Can someone se whats wrong here!
DECLARE @TEMP table (ID int, FILENAME nvarchar(255), GOgo nvarchar(5))
INSERT INTO @TEMP
select * , SUBSTRING(FILENAME, len(FILENAME) -1, 1) as GOgo
from mytable
group by GOgo
order by ID desc
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure GET_STAT, Line 102
Invalid column name 'prov'.
For me, very very strange!
We have a piece of software and database for student registers.
One of the biggest problems is the database has been difficult to work with, as I have had to work out the date using dateadd functions and combine fields from different tables.
I've now got the date correctly, but I want to add the time to the time part of a datetime field.
The time field is already stored in a datetime field, but the date in this field is always 1899-12-30.
This is the function I am using to get the date:
Code:
DATEADD(dd, e.day_of_week, DATEADD(ww, sm.week, '01/08/2011'))
And this is the function I use to get the time (from a datetime field):
Code:
SUBSTRING(CAST(e.start_time AS varchar(20)), 13, 5)
With the DATEADD function it appears you can only add individual elements each time hh, mi, ss.
Would I have to add a DATEADD function for each time element in order to add the time to the date?
I have one table with text column(varchar50) and 2 value columns(INT)
it looks like this:
c1, c2, c3
1, null, text1
2, null, text2
3, null, text3
4, 3, text4
What i want to do is to combine c3 on row 3 and 4 so the output would look like this:
c1, c2, c3
1, null, text1
2, null, text2
3, null, text3
4, 3, text3 ext4
I have tried to use CASE with no luck.
edit:
output like this is also fine
c1, c2, c3
1, null, text1
2, null, text2
3, null, text3
4, 3, text4
5, null, text3 ext4
Hello to All,

I want to combine two of my fields somewhat like when you combine to char fields and concatenate them. But these two fields are int. How do i do that? Here's my query right now:
Code Block

CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Year )+ CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Period_Code) as MarsId
FROM NavisionReplication.dbo.Tbl_Mars_Calender
ORDER BY Mars_Calender_Year DESC

Hi...I want one listbox showing cities but I dont want to list a city more than one time....
I know that DISTINCT maybe could work...But I dont get it to work correctly....
The code:
<asp:ListBox ID="ListBox1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" DataSourceID="DataSource1" DataTextField="City" DataValueField="City"></asp:ListBox>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="DataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [City] FROM [Location]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
I got the message:
The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable
The database have a table called "Location" with the column "ID" (int) as primary key and the column "City" (text)
In the database, most of our cities are stored in all upper case. For reporting purposes, I need to have them returned as upper/lower. I used the below function, which works great for one word cities. However I can’t figure out how to get it to capitalize the 1st letter of each word, for addresses containing multiple names such as Rancho Santa Margarita.
Upper(left(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY,1))+lower(substring(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY, 2, LEN(CR_MEMBER_ALLMEMBERDETAILS.ADDRESSCITY)))As ADDRESSCITY
This returns back: ‘Rancho santa margarita’; I need it to return ‘Rancho Santa Margarita’. Is this possible to do at the query level?
Hi,
Is anyone has store procedure that find city and zipcode by radius (10 miles, 30 miles, 50 miles.......)
and also table that has all zipcodes. I finded one, but it's look like very old one, not updated since 2005
Thanks
Kate
I have the following code, which returns a list of nearby cities based on a city name as input. Most cities have multiple zipcodes per city name, thus it can list multiple rows with the same city name, but with different zipcodes like below:
Zip | Cityname
111 belmont
112 belmont
113 belmont
114 san francisco
115 san francisco
---------------- etc----------------
I do not really care about each group of zipcodes. I only need one pair of zipcode/city name like the following:
ZIP | City name
111 belmont
114 San Francisco
How do I change my select to only return a distinct city name. I do not care which if the city/zipcodes it returns from the similar city.
The select statement is below:
CREATE PROCEDURE ZipSearchByCity
@city varchar(40),
@State varchar(5),
@distance int
AS
SELECT distinct o.City AS City, o.zip_code, o.State AS State,
(3956 * (2 * ASIN(SQRT(
POWER(SIN((z.RADlatitude-o.RADlatitude)/2),2) +
COS(z.RADlatitude) *
COS(o.RADlatitude) *
POWER(SIN((z.RADlongitude-o.RADlongitude)/2),2)
)))) dist
FROM zipcodes z,
zipcodes o,
zipcodes a
WHERE z.city = @city AND
z.State = @State AND
z.zip_code=a.zip_code AND
(3956 * (2 * ASIN(SQRT(
POWER(SIN((z.RADlatitude-o.RADlatitude)/2),2) +
COS(z.RADlatitude) *
COS(o.RADlatitude) *
POWER(SIN((z.RADlongitude-o.RADlongitude)/2),2)
)))) < @distance

Need to produce a query that show the cities and the number of people per city?
simple table
firstname
lastname
age
location
location shows the dif cities and the sql query will show cities will a count of people per city
how do you do this?
I've got a working query which returns all leads within a supplied proximity to a city. I followed a tutorial I googled a couple months ago (can't find it now). It works, but would love others to look the query over (provided DDL and sample data) and tell me if it's as it should be.
Two things I don't like about query:
1. I have to do a UNION to another query that retrieves everything that is in the same city in order to have complete results.
2. very slow to retrieve results (> 1 minute)
Sample DDL: 2 tables
create table dim_lead
(
date_created datetime,
[contact_first_name] varchar(20),
[contact_last_name] varchar(20),
lead_id int,
[Code] .....
The 2.0 version of ASPSTATE is slightly different than the 1.1 version in that one table has one additional column and another table uses a different data type and size for the key. The 2.0 version also has a couple additional stored procedures.
We'd like to manage just one session state database if possible so we're trying to figure out if Microsoft supports using the new schema for 1.1 session state access (it seems to work, but our testing has been very light).
Is there any official support line on this? If not, can anyone comment on whether or not you'd expect it to work and why?
Thanks.
We have mirroring setup for 5 dbs, 4 of which are synchronized and 1 which is in "synchronizing" state on the principal and "restoring" state on the mirror. Mirroring for all dbs has been working fine for the past several months and we have a witness that has allowed automatic failover in the past without problems.
This database has several bulk inserts performed throughout the day and am sure there is some latency due to the size of these transactions.
Not sure as to why this is happening all of a sudden, but the db in question has been in this state for the past 12 hrs. I checked the mirroring status on the principal and it states that it is "synchronizing: data is being transferred from principal to mirror", but the mirror server states that db is in "restoring" state. Can anyone suggest as to how I can get the database on the mirroring server to get back to "mirror, synchronizing/restoring..." state? Or suggest on how I can troubleshoot this?
Thanks in advance.
I'm new to SQL and I'm trying to write a statement to satisfy the following:

I can use the IN with the WHERE clause as example:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME IN ('FULLER','KING')I want to use the IN and LIKE at the same time:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME LIKE ('A%','B%')I know this is a simplistic example, but the members for the IN will bemany, 5 to 10.I'm trying to avoid:SELECT * FROM NORTHWIND WHERE LASTNAME LIKE 'A%' OR LASTNAME LIKE 'B%'OR LASTNAME LIKE 'FU%' OR LASTNAME LIKE 'JON%' <...>and so forth.Any Ideas?TIARob

Hi all,
I have a table with multiple rows with the same ID.
a) How do I combine all columns into one row with the same ID?
b) Is this better to do the combine in the store procedure/trigger or a sub that involked by some sort of datarepeater, datagrid controls?
Since I am trying to brush up my sql. I appreciate any examples on top of conceptual solution.
Thanks
Combine 3 Databases, Not tables.
Let me spell this out -- I have 3 databases (they are in isolation when in use, its a field app) that need to be merged into 1 "masterDB" database. I've discovered I can use something like this to get to each DB in a query...
1 USE [database1]2 SELECT table1.Name, table1.Location, table1.Date, table2.Blog3 FROM table2 INNER JOIN4 table1 ON table2.ID = table1.ID5 ORDER BY table1.Date
and then just repeat for database2 and database3. Ok, fine, rah rah. My question is how do I "merge" all of these into 1. No data on each db will be identical, at all, ever so that is not a concern. I just need all the data from db1, 2 and 3 into masterDB.
Ideas? Direction?
Hello, I have these variables on my page:
userid = "10101"
RequestHost = "example.com"
What would be the best way performace wise to first check if the userid 10101 exists in my sql server db. If it does exist I would then need to check if "example.com" exists for the userid in the userdomains table. If these both exist I would then like to query some additional data. I was hoping its possible to combine this into one query somehow. I dont think this is the best solution:
sqlcommand.CommandText = "SELECT UserId From Users Where UserID = '10101'"
Conn.Open()
dr = sqlcommand.ExecuteReader
if dr.hasrows then
sqlcommand2.CommandText = "SELECT UserDomain From UserDomains Where UserID = 'example.com'"
dr2 = sqlcommand2.ExecuteReader
if dr2.hasrows then
sqlcommand3.CommandText = 'Select Additional Data
dr3 = sqlcommand3.ExecuteReader
'read values
conn.close
else
conn.close
'do something
end if
else
conn.close
'do something
end if Thanks Very Much!
I have an stored procedure that returns 3 columns. Month, Date, and Total Number of Calls.
Here is the stored Proc:
SELECT DATEPART(mm, CALLSTARTTIME) , DATEPART(dd, CALLSTARTTIME), COUNT(*)
FROM CALL_LOG_MASTER
WHERE (COMMERCIALS = '1') AND (PINCODE IS NOT NULL)
GROUP BY DATEPART(mm, CALLSTARTTIME), DATEPART(dd, CALLSTARTTIME)
ORDER BY DATEPART(mm, CALLSTARTTIME), DATEPART(dd, CALLSTARTTIME)
It returns a table:
MONTH DATE TOTAL NUMBER OF CALLS======= ===== ===========1 1 10
1 2 15
My question is: is it possible to combine the Month and Date column into one column. e.g.
Date Total Number of Calls==== ==============1/1 101/2 15
Please Help, Thanks in advance :)
