How To Avoid Duplicate Value
Mar 2, 2007
Hello,
I have the following query,
SELECT GroupInfo.GroupID, GroupInfo.GroupName
FROM GroupInfo INNER Join DeviceGroup ON(DeviceGroup.GroupID=Groupinfo.GroupID)
INNER Join Deviceinfo ON (Deviceinfo.SerialNumber=DeviceGroup.SerialNumber )
It's out put is as follow:
Group ID GroupName
0 Abc
1 Beta
0 Abc
0 Abc
0 Abc
1 Beta
2 Alpha
Now, I want to make such query which will give me result as a Group ID and Group Name but not in repeating manner, Like,
Group ID GroupName
0 Abc
1 Beta
2 Alpha
Hope I explained what I need to see in result pane.
Thanks,
Junior

Hi there, newbie here.
I'm building a web application that allows for tagging of items, using ASP.NET 2.0, C# and SQL Server.
I have my USERS, ITEMS and TAGS separated out into three tables, with an intersection table to connect them.
Imagine a user has found an item they are interested in and is about to tag it. They type their tag into a textbox and hit Enter.
Here's what I want to do:
I want to search the TagText column in my TAGS table, to see if the chosen tag is already in the table. If it is, the existing entry will be used in the new relationship the user is creating. Thus I avoid inserting a duplicate value in this column and save space. If the value is not already in the column, a new entry will be created.
Here's where I'm up to:
I can type a tag into a textbox and then feed it to a query, which returns any matches to a GridView control.
Now I'm stuck... I imagine I have to use "if else" scenario, but I'm unsure of the code I'll have to use. I also think that maybe ADO.NET could help me here, but I have not yet delved into this. Can anyone give me a few pointers to help me along?
Cheers!

I tried to get the Country for all the people in the first table.
My SQL statement is: SELECT Table.Name, Table2.Country FROM Table Left Join Table1 ON Table.Rowid = Table1.Rowid Left Join Table2 ON Table1.Rowid1 = Table2.Rowid1
My final result is shown on Table2. But is it possible if I can generate the results without the duplicate Names (as shown below)?
Name

JAPAN
Peter

Any advice will much appreciated.

I have a form view that I am using to insert new data into a sql express database and would like to find a way to avoid attempting to insert a record if the key already exists. is there a way to do this with the formview insert command. Everything works great until I try to add a record with an already existing value in the unique key field, then it breaks.

Hello Everyone:
I am using the Import/Export wizard to import data from an ODBC data source. This can only be done from a query to specify the data to transfer.
When I try to create the tables, for the query, I am getting the following error:
Msg 2714, Level 16, State 4, Line 12
There is already an object named 'UserID' in the database.
Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 12
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
I have duplicated this error with the following script:
USE [testing]
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users1]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users2]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users3]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
I have searched the "2714 duplicate error msg," but have found references to duplicate table names, rather than multiple field names or column name duplicate errors, within a database.
I think that the schema is only allowing a single UserID primary key.
How do I fix this?
TIA

I've begun to get the above error from my package. The error message refers to two output columns.
Anyone know how this could happen from within the Visual Studio 2005 UI? I've seen the other posts on this subject, and they all seemed to be creating the packages in code.
Is there any way to see all of the columns in the data flow? Or is there any other way to find out which columns it's referring to?
Thanks!

Hi All,I am working on Web Application which deals with history data forreports and keeping track of changes.Current Solution :1) For each Entity I am having a column TID (Tracking ID) whichkeep on increasing for an instance of Entity. (so history and presentdata in the same table) . It makes querying the data difficult.2) I am also using month year table for Managing data i.e<TableNameMMYYYY> for a given month and yearPurposed Soluion :1) Using a seperate table so that history and present data isplaced seperately .2) Store All data in one table <TableName>Please guide me on advantages and disadvantages you pin point in thetwo approaches.With warm regardsJatinder

In out web application it happens very rarely that same query gets executed more than once meaning that sp_executesql is degrading performance. Does anyone know a way to tell ADO.NET to stop encapsulating queries in sp_executesql? Thank you.

I found some fragmented data pages in my database tables.
I have found out using DBCC Showcontig commands.
I want to remove data fragmentation.
My tables are replicated. Is it possible to remove fragmentation
without using export and import. Please help me in fixing this problem.
Is there any way to fix replication failure with out recreating it.
My replication has failed saying is timout error.error is could not connect
subscriber. But I can able to ping the subscriber and if I create a new publisher and subscriber it is working fine. But existing one is not working.
What might be the possible reason. We have recreated the replication. We droped the existing one and recreated it. It took around 14 hours to sync.
Is there any way to resync with out recreate publication. We are using transaction replication and merge replication.

Hi All,
Very Ad-hoc requirement I am having.
I've got one table with two columns.
Column Name Data Type
1) Id Integer Identity
2) RemDate DateTime
I've to write one SP/JOB in that there will be an integer input parameter @numofday.
Say value of @numofday is 5 then.... in SP/Job I need to insert 31 - 5 = 26 records to above-mentioned table where date starting from 1st of current month.
This logic can be achieve through looping but if anyone can suggest some better way to achieve this functionality without use of looping.
Thanks in advance,

Happy new year to all! Now a question...
I added a new column to StagePayments table - Activity - which is supposed to end up being the same as the JobActivityID from the JobActivities table. Basically, I need to get JobActivities (JA) info and put it in the StagePayment (SP) column. Problem is there are duplicate JA/Descriptions and SP/Activities, so what I need is to take the first sequence SP/Activity and grab the first JA/JobActivityID that matches for a particular JobID. Then get the next one of each and so on and so on...

If anyone is able to offer suggestions on how to get this to update correctly, I'd be very happy to hear about it!

Hi,
I need to query a database for a recordset and insert this into another database row-by-row.
For each record I want to provide a time of insert, but for each insert this time has to be incremented by 1, the time format is HH:MM:SS.0000 so for each inserted record the last decimal point would increment by 1.
Can I do this without a cursor ?
Any additional info I will provide gladly.
Thanks!

I am conducting stress testing for my website and keep getting deadlocks with the following message when one process is adding about 100 records per second and another process is trying to access the data:
Transaction (Process ID 499) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.
What do I need to do in my stored procedures to avoid this? I only have ONE stored prcoedure that locks a row while incrementing an ID value. I am not doing any other locks, so is this a SQL Server system lock?
Any advise would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Application is a Work Tracking/Timesheet database.The increments of work are stored in the TimesheetItem table. Thiscontains, inter alia, the Work Code, the Start and the Duration thatthe employee spent that day on a particular project.Some employees in the Network Support Department don't complete astandard 7.5 hour day for various reasons, so for every Network Supportperson I need to update these particular days with an amount to bringthe total day's hours to 7.5.This SQL will get me a list of all TimesheetItem records for thepersonnel concerned.SELECTTimesheetItem.TypeID,[Work].WorkCode,TimesheetItem.Start AS Start,SUM(CAST(TimesheetItem.DurationMins AS float) / 60) AS HoursFROMTimesheetItem LEFT OUTER JOIN[Work] ON TimesheetItem.WorkID = [Work].WorkIDWHERE(TimesheetItem.EmployeeID IN(SELECT EmployeeID FROM Employee WHERE DepartmentID = 2))GROUP BYTimesheetItem.TypeID, TimesheetItem.Start, [Work].WorkCodeHAVING(TimesheetItem.Start >= @FromDate) AND (TimesheetItem.Start <= @ToDate)ORDER BYTimesheetItem.StartWhat I need is to group these records by EmployeeID where theaccumulated hours per day are < 7.5, so that I can then insert anincrement to make up the difference.I'm writing this from home and I don't have access to the tables toprovide a script, but there's nothing untoward there.Hope someone can help!ThanksEdward

I have to admit, I'm usually using the MySql database, but in this particular case I have to use MSSQL 2000.
Over to my problem.
I'm building a web-based system (who isn't these days) in which the user types arbitrary information that is published when the user pushes the save button. Nothing new about that.
Here comes the tricky part, when the user wants to edit an existing item I copy all information in the database and sets the id of the 'edit-copy' to the negative value ( id 45 becomes id -45 for the edit-copy). This is also done on all items in other tables that is connected to the main item.
This way I get a copy that the user may edit without messing up the published information. When the user is done I either delete all the negative items (cancel) or delete the positive items and update the negative to become positive (save).
So far so good, allmost... my problem is that the transaction log grows tremendously.
Is there any other way to accomplish a safe edit that doesn't affect the transaction log as much as my current solution?
Could I be doing something wrong when updateing or deleteing my items?

hate to gripe, but this was bad. I have taken several sql server classes over the years, and have always been happy with the class, but avoid the 2733a (upgrading you database administration skills to sql 2005). Class is poorly devloped and incomplete. Half of the examples were to do things such as mirroring and replication from a command prompt. I thought I was in an Oracle 8 class. It was clear much of this functionality is not complete. In fact most of the class was command prompt based. They had absolutley nothing about the upgrade process from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. I hope MS is not taking a step backwards, I always thought the strong suite for MS was the enterprise manager tool suite. The instructor did tell me there was an upgrade to the class that just came out, but it has a long way to go.

Hello All,
I have faced a network problem during some days, what forced one of our replications to be stopped.
The Publisher database is a high volume database.
After I re-started the replication, the Subscirber database has its transacting log size increased quickly, because of the high volume of information to be inserted.
My concern is the way it is working, there will be no enough space for the log or for its backup files.
So, I have created a TSQL job within the following commands:
BACKUP LOG database_name
WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY
DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (database_name,TRUNCATEONLY)
It's running every 20 minutes, however the transaction log remains increasing.
I have also changed the db_option "SELECT INTO/BULKCOPY" to TRUE, in order to avoid logging bulk copies, but I believe, it didn't work because it didn't apply to replication process.
Does Anybody know if I can disable the transaction log or avoid this incresing of size during the replication?
Thanks a lot!

I have some SQL scripts for SQL Views and getting divide by zero error. I am using
COALESCE(Field1,Field2,1)/COALESCE(Field3,Field4,1)
This function can avoid NULL but how I can avoid 0 ?
Is there any function in SQL that can take care both NULL and 0 and replace it with 1.

I have a query that maps all products to some customer levels. In this case levels 0,5,7 and 8
DELETE FROM ProductCustomerLevel
WHERE CustomerLevelID IN (0, 5, 7, 8)
INSERT ProductCustomerLevel
(
ProductID,
CustomerLevelID
[Code] ....
Basically this maps all products in a database to these customer levels so that they get a discount.
I know need to create a new customer level, example number 9. These will only have 1 or 2 products applied to it.
How can I change the SQL above so that it does not map those products already in Customer Level 9 to levels 0,5,7 and 8

Hi,
I have a customer who is using vba to pull a result set from an sql server stored procedure into excel. She wants a calculated column added to the result set that gives:
The number days (datediff) between the end date (autend_dte) on one row and the begin date (autbeg_dte) on the next row for each client (clt_num). The rows are to be ordered by client and begin date. The number should be associated with the second row used to calculate the date diff. The first row for each client will have a date diff of 0.
I could do this using a cursor in the stored procedure or a loop in the vba, but I would prefer to do it with the select, but I don't even know where to start.
See expected results below.
CREATE TABLE #testit (
clt_num int NOT NULL ,
autbeg_dte datetime NULL ,
autend_dte datetime NULL)
INSERT INTO #testit (clt_num, autbeg_dte, autend_dte)
SELECT 510, '2004-09-01 00:00:00.000', '2005-09-30 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 510, '2005-10-01 00:00:00.000', '2006-04-06 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 600, '2006-08-01 00:00:00.000', '2006-11-06 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2529, '2006-01-13 00:00:00.000', '2006-04-11 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2529, '2005-11-30 00:00:00.000', '2005-12-12 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2602, '2006-03-29 00:00:00.000', '2006-05-02 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2602, '2005-11-12 00:00:00.000', '2006-02-27 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2602, '2006-05-26 00:00:00.000', '2006-06-12 23:59:00.000' UNION ALL
SELECT 2602, '2006-06-18 00:00:00.000', '2006-06-28 23:59:00.000'
SELECT * FROM #testit
order by clt_num,autbeg_dte
Expected result:
clt_numautbeg_dte autend_dte Days Diff
