hi and thanks for your help. Is there such a code that return whether or not a field is either positive or negative. If I have a field that contain numeric value. lets say -500
can I run a code that check the sign ?
thanks for your help

Hi all,
I AM USING ROW_NUMBER() FUNCTION IN MY QUREY IN SQL 2005 BUT IT IS GIVING ME PROBLEM IN SQL 2000.
SO CAN U TELL ME WHAT IS THE ALTERNATE WAY TO ACHIVE SAME RESULT.
MY QUREY IS:
select row_number() over (order by SalesYTD asc) as rownum, CountryRegionName, FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD, SalesLastYear from Sales.SalesPerson
CAN U TELL ME HOW CAN I REPLACE ROW_NUMBER() FUNCTION.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

This script is for an in-line table function, F_TABLE_NUMBER_RANGE, that generates a number table. The input parameters are the @START_NUMBER and @END_NUMBER. It returns a sorted result set containing all intergers from @START_NUMBER to @END_NUMBER inclusive.
This is an improved version of a script that I posted on a topic a few weeks ago. I modified it to cross join fewer tables based on powers of 16, instead of powers of 2, because I found that this compiled and ran much faster for small result sets (less than 10,000 rows).

Hi all
I have select statement which is using Function and I am passing arguments to the query
select * from funactin_name(@a,@b,@c)
It is giving an error saying is that "An insufficient number of arguments to function..."
some body help how to find out required arguments to the function by using QA.
Hey folks,
In Sybase SQL Any where, we have a function called Number (*) which will in turn generate serial numbers like ex..
Select Number (*) from x
The output will be
Number(*)
1
2
3
4
5
6
and so on..
I need a equivalent function in SQL Server 7.0 in which if i do select on that particular function with a table i should return above values..
Can any one solve this issue...

Hi everybody, I am having trouble how to fixed this code. I am trying to supply the parameterinside a stored procedure with a value, and displays error message shown below. If I did not supply the parameter with a value, it works. How to fix this?Error Message:Procedure or function <stored proc name> has too many arguments specified.Thanks,den2005

Can someone help me with this issue? I am trying to update a record using a sp. The db table has an identity column. I seem to have set up everything correctly for Gridview and SqlDataSource but have no clue where my additional, phanton arguments are being generated. If I specify a custom statement rather than the stored procedure in the Data Source configuration wizard I have no problem. But if I use a stored procedure I keep getting the error "Procedure or function <sp name> has too many arguments specified." But thing is, I didn't specify too many parameters, I specified exactly the number of parameters there are. I read through some posts and saw that the gridview datakey fields are automatically passed as parameters, but when I eliminate the ID parameter from the sp, from the SqlDataSource parameters list, or from both (ID is the datakey field for the gridview) and pray that .net somehow knows which record to update -- I still get the error. I'd like a simple solution, please, as I'm really new to this. What is wrong with this picture? Thank you very much for any light you can shed on this.

I wrote a Scalar UDF in SQL2005 that returns an integer. I want to be able to display this integer in a ASP.Net 2.0 web page. I typically use a DAL for all data so I added an ObjectDataSource as a Qeury that contains only the UDF. How do I easily display the value in a Label Control or?

From what I've seen, the CheckSum_Agg function appears to returns 0 for even number of repeated values. If so, then what is the practical use of this function for implementing an aggregate checksum across a set of values?
For example, the following work as expected; it returns a non-zero checksum across (1) value or across (2) unequal values.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-7077
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
1035
However, the function appears to returns 0 for an even number of repeated values.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-7077), (-7077);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
It's not specific to -7077, for example:
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
What's curious is that (3) repeated equal values will return a checksum > 0.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
-997777
But a set of (4) repeated equal values will return 0 again.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (-997777), (-997777), (-997777);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
Finally, a set of (2) uneuqal values repeated twice will return 0 again.
declare @t table ( ID int );
insert into @t ( ID ) values (-997777), (8112), (-997777), (8112);
select checksum_agg( ID ) from @t;
-----------
0
I have sql code that returns the correct number of record when run without an aggregate function like count(myfield) and group by myfield. It always returns 86 row which is correct when Select DISTINCT is used. As, expected when DISTINCT is not used I get double the number if rows or 172. But when I count(myfield) and group by myfield the count is 172 and not 86. The strangest thing about this is that when I am grouping a set of items
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
The other group sum up correctly while others don't. What can explain this? Here is the code.
Select DISTINCT ws.p4Districtnumber, ws.cycle, ws.worksetid, count(msi.MeterSessionInputKey) as ASND
from fcs.dbo.WorkSet as ws
left outer join fcs.dbo.WorkAssignment as wa
on ws.WorkSetID = wa.WorkSetID
left outer join fcs.dbo.MeterSessionInput as msi
on wa.worksetkey = msi.worksetkey

is it possible to use the window functions to count the number of rows in the previous 24hours from the current row.

does the window functions can do this? and how?
the ROW PRECEDING etc... appear to not have enough feature to support time related function.

Hi Guys,
I have a website with multiple pages and when a user signs in it puts a 1 in the database and their online status is shown to the rest of the members, if they use my signout button which I have on each page, it signs them out and updates the database with a 0 in the process, so shows them as then offline, my problem is some people forget to sign out and just close the browser window or begin surfing elsewhere.
Is there a way to have sql server 2000 automatically change the field in the database after 30 minutes of inactivity.
Or is there a way to automatically sign users out as they either click on the X in the browser window, or as they leave my site.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

So what has happened to my pound sign? any ideas?

I have a SQL 7 db that I use a DTS package to import Oracle data into. The package works fine and imports all the appropriate data. However, if I use an Access 2000 database to attach to the data via ODBC (using the MS SQL Server driver), the negative sign is dropped when displaying data in a table, query, or report.
Same problem in SQL Server - if I query the SQL 7 data via the Query Analyzer, the negative signs are dropped. However, if I query the SQL data using the Enterprise Manager (i.e., Open Table...Return All Rows via right click on the table), the data shows up properly with the negative signs there. Bottom line - the data is correct, but doesn't get displayed correctly in QA or via ODBC.
What gives?! Can anyone explain to me the "connections" that occur between EM and QA? Looks like QA uses a "temporary" ODBC connection to talk to the data, while the EM connects "directly" to the data. Also, what gives with the MS SQL Server ODBC driver - why wouldn't it display the negative signs? Is there a better SQL Server ODBC driver that I should/could use? I've tried configuring the ODBC connection differently, but to no avail.
Any help is greatly appreciated, as the data in question is being used in court and absolutely HAS to be accurately displayed.
Thanks!

Code:
objrs.Open "Select * from [klcc_f$]", objConn, adOpenStatic
why IM getting dollar sign is not a valid name ?
I am trying to use this command to change the variable in where clause each time:
psexec servername -E cmd.EXE /c "sqlcmd -S servername /E -d dbname -v entertext="'%anything%'" -i c:myfoldermyscript.sql -o c:mypathoutput.sql"
myscript.sql is like:
select * from table_name
where summary like $(entertext);
This command works just for variables with single and exact word. It does not work for variables which has space between them or when I enter part of summary.In fact, I wanted to write something which the user be able to enter variable each time when he/she run this batch file. because I put this sqlcmd command in batch file( like this in oracle: "select * from table_name where summary = &entertext; " I was looking the same command in sql server , but I did not find it). I do not know .net or any other programing language( I know just csh and command line). I want to do this just with sql command.
I have a query where I have to use the convert function to return the unitprice as a decimal with 2 digits to the right of the decimal and a $ to the left of the number like 10 should be $10.0o. How do i insert the $. this is my code so far:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar, UnitPrice, 1) AS varchartotal
FROM dbo.[Order Details]
I'm trying to import a text file which contains dates and decimal values. My problem is that the date has the following format "YYYY-MM-DD" and the decimal sign for the values are "." (dot).
If I change the "Locale" for the file source so it will handle the "." signs in the values then the dates are invalid, and if I have it so the dates are handled then the "."s aren't seen as decimals.
Is it posible to handle this problem in SSIS
Thanks
In Crystal Reports, there was a "reverse sign for display" property that could be checked for a number box. This was used for debits and credits (and such) so a negative number would be displayed as a positive and a positive displayed as a negative.
How would this work, or is there something simple, in Reporting Services?
Thanks for the information.
