Counting Numbers Of Occurences Of Null
Sep 20, 2005
Hi All,
I have a table with (lets say) 2 fields: ACTIONED_TO & COMMENTS
There will be multiple rows with the same ACTIONED_TO value some of the COMMENTS will be null
eg:
ACTIONED_TO,COMMENTS
"Matt","This is a comment"
"Dave","This is a comment too"
"Matt",
what I'm looking for my query to return is:
ACTIONED_TO, NO COMMENTS, COMMENTS
MATT, 1,1
Dave,1,0
Do I need a CROSSTAB Query, How is it implemented?
Regards
Matt A

I'm having trouble getting my head around this, and no one in the groupshas posted exactly the problem.The table below tracks site traffic across a network. There is 1 rowper pageview and UUID is that user's unique cookie.CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Stats_Working] ([inac_stats_id] [int] NOT NULL ,[hit_time] [datetime] NULL ,[site_id] [int] NULL ,[site_cat_id] [int] NULL ,[item_id] [int] NULL ,[local_content_cat_id] [int] NULL ,[UUID] [float] NULL ,[USER_AGENT] [char] (50) NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOA client asked: of these pageviews and within each category, how manyare accounted for by users that generated 2 or fewer pageviews, 3+pageviews, and 4+ pageviews?I said, "yes, we have that information". I know it's here, but I'mbraindead from looking at what should be a simple solution.Thanks for any helpCam Bevis*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

If I had a basic table with 3 VARCHAR fields; let's say A, B, C
How could I write a query that returns the count of the number of NULL columns for every record in a table?
Ideally, it would be something like:
SELECT
CAST (A IS NULL) AS INTEGER
+ CAST (B IS NULL) AS INTEGER
+ CAST (C IS NULL) AS INTEGER
FROM MyTable
That doesn't work at all. I can't seem to do "IS NULL" in the SELECT area. Should I write a T-SQL user-defined function that takes all three columns as parameters? Would that be performance friendly for large data sets?

Hi,
I'm hitting my head against the wall because of a really small issue...
Basically, let's assume I have the following:
BOOK_ID
========
1
2
2
in a table BOOK. I am trying to code a query that would return the book_id that appears the most in the book table.
Anyone knows how to do this?
The closest i've got is this:
select max(count(book_id)) from intermeeting group by book_id;
But this only returns the number of occurences of the record. What i'm interested in, is the ID of the record that occurs that many times...
Thanks for your help

I need to get the 5 most common occurences from a table. Not really sure of the SQL statement I would use to do that. Would someone be kind enough to throw out a select statement that would do this? psuedo code would be fine, I just need to know the jest of how to do it. I originally thought Select Top 5 would work, but then I actually started thinking and realized it wasnt it. So now im stuck. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
EDIT: I should add that this will be coming from a view with multiple tables..thanks

I have a report with a column which contains either a string such as "N/A" or a number such as 12. A user exports the report to Excel. In Excel the numbers are formatted as text.
I already tried to set the value as CDbl which returns error for the cells containing a string.
The requirement is to export the column to Excel with the numbers formatted as numbers and the strings such as "N/A' in the same column as string.
Any suggestions?

Hi all,
@str varchar(500)
select @str = 'abcd,efgh,i,jklmn,opsqrtuv'
For the above string, which string function can be used to find the number of occurences of a particular character, for example, ','? For this example, the answer should be 4. Is there any built-in function in SQL to do this?
Thanks in advance,

I have a table with a column ID of ContentID. The ID in that column is all NULLs. I need a way to change those nulls to a number. It does not matter what type of number it is as long as they are different. Can someone point me somewhere with a piece of T-SQL that I could use to do that. There are over 24000 rows so cursor change will not be very efficient.
Thanks for any help

I have an 'ID' column. I'm up to about ID number 40000, but not all are in use, so ID 4354 might not be in any row. I want a list of all numbers which aren't in use. I want to write something like this:
select [numbers from 0 to 40000] where <number> not in (select distinct id from mytable)
but don't know how. Any clues?

I'm trying to write data to excel from an ssis component to a excel destination.
Even thought I'm writing numerics, every cell gets this error with a green tag:
Convert numbers stored as text to numbers
Excel Cells were all pre-formated to accounting 2 decimal, and if i manually type the exact data Im sending it formats just fine.
I'm hearing this a common problem -
On another project I was able to find a workaround for the web based version of excel, by writing this to the top of the file:
<style>.text { mso-number-format:@; } </style>
is there anything I can pre-set in excel (cells are already formated) or write to my file so that numerics are seen as numerics and not text.
Maybe some setting in my write drivers - using sql servers excel destination.
So close.. Thanks for any help or information.

Hey. I need to substitute a value from a table if the input var is null. This is fine if the value coming from table is not null. But, it the table value is also null, it doesn't work. The problem I'm getting is in the isnull line which is in Dark green color because @inFileVersion is set to null explicitly and when the isnull function evaluates, value returned from DR.FileVersion is also null which is correct. I want the null=null to return true which is why i set ansi_nulls off. But it doesn't return anything. And the select statement should return something but in my case it returns null. If I comment the isnull statements in the where clause, everything works fine. Please tell me what am I doing wrong. Is it possible to do this without setting the ansi_nulls to off??? Thank you
set ansi_nulls off
go
declare
@inFileName VARCHAR (100),
@inFileSize INT,
@Id int,
@inlanguageid INT,
@inFileVersion VARCHAR (100),
@ExeState int
set @inFileName = 'A0006337.EXE'
set @inFileSize = 28796
set @Id= 1
set @inlanguageid =null
set @inFileVersion =NULL
set @ExeState =0
select Dr.StateID from table1 dR
where
DR.[FileName] = @inFileName
AND DR.FileSize =@inFileSize
AND DR.FileVersion = isnull(@inFileVersion,DR.FileVersion)
AND DR.languageid = isnull(@inlanguageid,null)
AND DR.[ID]= @ID
)
go
set ansi_nulls on

For above tables, I want to show:1 3 ( i.e. "1" is in T2 and shows 3 times in T1)2 0 (i.e. "2" is in T2 but doesn't show in T1)3 2 (i.e. "3" is in T2 and show 2 times in T1)It seems I can't figure out a good way to do this.

I am working on writing a query to use with Reporting Services where I am pulling grades from a school grade book trying to see what students qualify for Honor Roll.
I have one Honor Roll done but am still working on the other. The qualifications I am trying to get is that a student has a gpa >3.0 and can have one C grade. I've got the 3.0 and the C's down but how to get the query to pull anyone having at the most one C. It doesn't matter whether it is C+, C, or C- but the student can't have more than a count of one.
Here is what I have
SELECT DISTINCT s.lastname+','+' '+s.firstname AS Student, s.studentnumber,e.grade,t.name AS Term,
gs.score, c.name AS Course, se.teacherdisplay
FROM GradingScore gs
INNER JOIN student s ON s.personid = gs.personid
INNER JOIN v_TermGpa tg ON tg.personid = s.personid
INNER JOIN enrollment e ON e.enrollmentid = s.enrollmentid AND e.calendarid = gs.calendarid
INNER JOIN scheduleStructure ss ON ss.calendarid = gs.calendarid
INNER JOIN Termschedule ts ON ts.structureid = ss.structureid
INNER JOIN Term t ON t.termscheduleid = ts.termscheduleid
INNER JOIN section se ON se.sectionid = gs.sectionid
INNER JOIN course c ON c.courseid = se.courseid
WHERE gs.calendarID = 20 AND t.name ='1st 6wk' AND tg.term1gpa >=3.0 AND s.enddate IS NULL
AND gs.score <='C-'
AND (select gs1.personid, gs1.score
from gradingscore gs1
inner join enrollment e1 on e1.personid = gs1.personid
Inner join schedulestructure ss1 on ss1.calendarid = e1.calendarid
Inner join termschedule ts1 on ts1.structureid = ss1.structureid
Inner join term t1 on t1.termscheduleid = ts1.termscheduleid
where gs1.score IN('C','C+','C-') and (count(score)= 0 or count(score) < 2))
ORDER BY s.[student]
I can get it to work all the way up to where the And (count(score) starts then there is something about the way the count is in there that I haven't figured out yet.
Thanks in Advance for any help or advice

Hi all,
I would like to have my SQL statement result to return an additional "column", automatically adding an "auto-increasing" number with it.
So if I for example select all Dates older than today's date, I would want something like this:
1
10/12/2006
2
10/18/2006
3
10/20/2006
4
10/22/2006
5
10/30/2006
Keep in mind that it's not my intention to fysically insert the "counting" column into the table, but rather do it "virtually".
Is this possible? And if yes, how ? :)
Thanks in advance
Nick

Sorry for all the code below. I am realizing that my DB design is bad but I already have 7 pages built around it that work fine...until now, so I would really like to not change the DB if possible. My table has 22 columns: iID which is the identity colum. Then there is iAsmtID which is the assessment ID. Lastly there are 20 colums- q1 through q20, each of which will have a 1, 2, or 3, depending on the radio buttons the user clicked. Nows my problem. I have to find a percent for the assessment. It works like this. 3s are NA so we are not worried about them now. I need to find the number of ones and the number of twos for each assessment ID. Then add those together and divide by the number of ones. How can I find the number of the ones and twos. I have below but its not working. Says there is incorrect syntax at the ',' which is a different color below.

Hi everyone,
another problem:
I'm trying to count the number of rows but it's not working. Here's my code:
SELECT 'TOTAL number of rows', count(*) --This counts 4! The total number of rows in [Activites]
FROM [Activities]
WHERE [Person ID] IN
(
SELECT DISTINCT [Person ID] --This brings back 2 rows (two specific people)
FROM [Activites]
)
As my comments say, I'm wanting to count the two rows but it's counting every row. Obviously I'm doing something wrong but I can't work it out.
Any help?

Hi,
I'm trying to include the COUNT(*) value of a sub-query in the results of a parent query. My SQL code is:
SELECT appt.ref, (Case When noteCount > 0 Then 1 Else 0 End) AS notes FROM touchAppointments appt, (SELECT COUNT(*) as noteCount FROM touchNotes WHERE appointment=touchAppointments.ref) note WHERE appt.practitioner=1
This comes up with an error basically saying that 'touchAppointments' isn't valid in the subquery. How can I get this statement to work and return the number of notes that relate to the relevant appointment?
Cheers.

Hi,
How can I aggregate a top 5 count across two satellite tables?
e.g. Orders and downloads table each have multiple entries for the same customer ID I would like to count the orders and add them to the downloads count too e.g. 5 orders added to 10 downloads giving 15 as the total for this customer and get a total 'site activity' result which I would like to select the top 5 for.
Any help or pointers would be a great help!

Hi. I have a small problem that i just can't seem to figure out. I'm trying to generate a report for a case management system. The problem I am having is trying to exclude some of these results. Here is my query:
SELECT COUNT(DefendantCase.ProsAtty) AS CountOfProsAtty
FROM DefendantCase LEFT JOIN DefendantEventPros ON DefendantCase.VBKey=DefendantEventPros.VBKey
WHERE DefendantCase.StatusID=17 AND DefendantCase.ProsAtty=55
AND DefendantEventPros.EventDate BETWEEN DATEADD(DAY,-60,GETDATE()) AND GETDATE() AND DefendantEventPros.EventID=9
This query is trying to find the total amount of cases where the statusid=17, the prosatty=55, the date is between today and 60 days ago, and there is an eventid=9.
now, i'm not getting errors in the query itself; it's just that it's inflating the total number. If a case has more than one eventid=9, it will include that extra in the results. I do not want to include those in the results. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

I figured I could add a column that contains that number. But how will I get it there?
UPDATE [_temp] T1
SET T1.SERIAL_COUNT = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [_temp] T2 WHERE T1.SERIAL = T2.SERIAL)

hiya all,
I got a table that is represented as a B-Tree, it has a one to
many relation with its self
------------
| UserID |
------------
|FatherID|
------------
UserID = FatherID
it looks like this
o
/// \
ooo ooo
//\ ///\
oo ooo ooo
I want to get all the nodes that has 256 children and grand children and each node is limited to have 6 nodes under it.
any ideas ? the DB isn't filled with data yet so we can add more fields
to the table if it helps.
I could write a trigger that increments a counter in each node but it will be a recursive trigger so it can go from the child to its father and the father to its father upating them and so on.
regards
Ahm

T-SQL counting rows with a value:
My query is like this:
SELECT
Name,
A,
B,
C,
D
FROM
Table
ORDER BY
Name
The query result looks like this:
Name A B C D
Bert 2 0 0 0
Bert 3 6 0 1
Mark 0 0 1 0
Mark 0 8 8 0
Mark 5 6 3 0
I want my result to count the cells with a value and group them on name Like this:
Name A B C D
Bert 2 1 0 1
Mark 3 2 3 0
COUNT() gives back every row from a name.
SUM() adds up the values
I have tried many things with sub queries and combined functions, but up until now with no results.
How do I do this ?

select statement joining file1 to file2. File 1 may have 0, 1, or many corresponding rows in file2. I need to count the corresponding rows in table2. Table2 also has a Boolean column and I need to count the number of rows where it is true. So I need to count the total number of matching rows and the count of those that are set to true. This is an example of what I have so far. I had to add each column being selected into a Group by to make it work, but I do not know why. Is there some other way this should be set up.
SELECT c.CarId, c.CarName, c.CarColor, COUNT(t.TrailerId) as trailerCount, (add count of boolian, say t.TrailerFull is true)
FROM Car c
LEFT JOIN Trailer t on t.CarId = c.CarId
