How To Query For Text Containing Parens?
Sep 29, 2006
I have an SQL database with rows that have parens in the data.
If I run a select statement such as:
SELECT SongName
FROM Songs
WHERE SongName = 'John Jacob (Jingleheimer Schmidt)'
It returns zero rows. This also:
SELECT SongName
FROM Songs
WHERE SongName LIKE '%John Jacob (Jingleheimer Schmidt)%'
returns zero rows.
If I change it to this:
SELECT SongName
FROM Songs
WHERE SongName LIKE '%John Jacob%'
Then I get the row returned.
Is there a way to use the first query example above and return the row?
I'm guessing it has something to do with the parenthesis...

I have a parameter value as shown below and this is dynamic and can grow
Example : 101-NY, 102-CA, 165-GA
116-NY, 258-NJ, 254-PA, 245-DC, 298-AL
How do I get the values in the below format
NY,CA,GA --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state
NY,NJ,PA,DC,AL --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state
correct query that will fetch only state names and not the numbers.

Hi,
During a trace in profiler, I see some lines that indicate :
exec sp_execute 12
Or
exec sp_execute 24
I suppose these are query in cache and are recall by query processor ? If yes, how can I see this query in clear text ?
Thanks for help

I'm wanting to concatenate something that doesnt exist to an already existing field.
What I need to do is add a generic email address to every record in a data view So, what it would do is take the column that does exist and add @domain.com to another column that I would call username So rather than it just appearing as 911234 it would be a derived column saying 911234@domain.com
i've tried using +''+ but I get a space after the number.

I have this as my query text
SELECT MachNumber, ShiftNumber, HeatNumber, PartNumber,
RevNumber, CureTime, Bump1, Bump1Interval, Bump2,
Bump2Interval, DwellTime, LateToDrop, EarlyToDrop,
OverTime, CycleTime, ChangeTime, Date
FROM HeatInfo
WHERE (ShiftNumber = @ShiftNumber)
AND (Date >= @StartDate) AND (Date <= @EndDate)
This correctly returns 4 rows, which is great except that I would like to have these records Sorted by the Date. So I added the OrderBy command to the bottom of the query, like this
SELECT MachNumber, ShiftNumber, HeatNumber, PartNumber,
RevNumber, CureTime, Bump1, Bump1Interval, Bump2,
Bump2Interval, DwellTime, LateToDrop, EarlyToDrop,
OverTime, CycleTime, ChangeTime, Date
FROM HeatInfo
WHERE (ShiftNumber = @ShiftNumber)
AND (Date >= @StartDate) AND (Date <= @EndDate)
ORDER BY Date
This query returns 181 rows! whis is not great. What am I doing wrong here, I suppose that it is something extreamly obvious or I would probably have figured it out.

My host does allow me to create full text catalogs. I use SQL Server Management Studio Express, so I'd have to do it "by hand" as opposed to point-clicking menus and going through wizards. Where do I go to find those commands? I've seen them before but I can't remember where to get them. They're the ones that begin with sp_.
I need the commands for:

Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0.
I have a query (select * from table1) and I'd like to have the results of this query sent to a text file instead of the results windows when I run it from Query Analyzer.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

I have a couple columns in a table that have a data type of Text. In a query I need to concatenate these two columns into one result.
For example
Code:
SELECT (Table1.TextColumn1 + ' ' + Table1.TextColumn2) AS 'Text'
FROM Table1
However when I try this I get the error
Invalid operator for data type. Operator equals add, type equals text.

Hi,
I have the following table called "tests" :
id WeekNbrnametest hours
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 2007/26John "testA"5
2 2007/26John "testB"6
3 2007/26David "testA"3
4 2007/28David "testC"2
5 2007/30Victor "testD"1
I want to write a query so that I have as a result one row per person and per week, as followed
WeekNbrname testhours
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2007/26John"testA, testB" 11
2007/26David"testA" 3
2007/28David"testC" 2
2007/30Victor"testD" 1
This means that I need to concatenate the values of the test column if in the same week and same person.
For now, I have only managed to do the job without the test concatenation the following way:
SELECT DISTINCT WeekNbr, name, SUM(hours) as [Total of hours]
FROM tests
GROUP BY WeekNbr, name
and I get the following:
WeekNbrnamehours
-------------------------------------------------------
2007/26John 11
2007/26David 3
2007/28David 2
2007/30Victor 1
Anyone could help me please?
Thanks so much in advance

hi.coming from postgresql, i am used to textual references to most of thethings i do with the database. i feel a little lost with all the graphical.i have few questions regarding MS SQL 20001. what is the best (or easiest) way of getting a table definition in text?it could be either a CREATE TABLE sql-query or a just a definition,something like:TABLE thisTableidintegervaluevarchar(10)etc.etc.2a. how do i get a query plan and how do i get it in text.2b. are there planner modes that show more or less of what actuallyhappened, verbose mode perhaps?2c. if i ask for a query plan, will SQL server actually run the query orwill it only produce a plan. if the query is run, does it commit orrollback by default?stig

Is there something wrong with my query or my full text catalog? The first query returns data while the second one does not. Does it have something to do with it being a number? I can get the rows to return by searching on alpha text.
select * from gk_info
where info_desc like '%6416%'
select * from gk_info WHERE
CONTAINS (info_desc, '"6416"')

I am using Windows "Performance Logs and Alerts" to log performance statistics to a SQL database. In this case I am using a Counter Log, which creates the necessary tables upon startup of the log. I can see my data pouring into the database and now I am writing some T-SQL statements to query the data and display it on an aspx page. I have one particular problem that is presenting me with a bit of a challenge. I want to be able to query my captured performance counters based on date ranges entered on the aspx page. Unfortunately I am having trouble doing that because the "CounterDateTime" field where the date for each counter sample is stored is a char(24) data type instead of a datetime data type. I'm not sure why MS chose to store dates in a char field but I am not sure how to query that field for date ranges. So my question is, how would one query for a date range when the dates that I'm querying are in char format? Thanks in advance.

Hope you can ignore your personal music tastes with this post!I have a table of Artists with a Full Text Index on a few columns on that table. My full text querying against this table works really well apart from it seems for one band - "Take That"! I'm guessing this is because these words consitute noise words? I parse user's search terms and add an "AND" between each word. So for example my query is essentially:select * from containstable(Artists, *, '"take AND that"') As I say, this works fine for Pink Floyd etc, but not for these guys! So either SQL Server has a preference on boy bands or I am thinking it is because these words are deemed to be noise. Anybody got any tips on how I could tackle this? I suppose it is quite possible that there might be another band with the same problem.I do have exclusive access to the SQL box, so perhaps I could edit the noise words file......Thanks

Hi - I am trying to add paging to my stored procedure. The stored procedure successfully executes a full-text search. Unfortunately, the paging routine below the full-text search operates on the articles table after the search has been conducted. This means that it utilizes the row numbers from the entire table rather than the row numbers from the result set. I somehow need to the paging routine starting at "WITH tempArticles AS" to operate on the search results rather than the articles table. I am too new to SQL and can't figure out how to populate a temporary table storing text search results to use in this paging routine. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks! Peter dbo.Search_Articles @searchText varchar(150), @PageSize int, @PageNumber int AS Declare @RowStart int Declare @RowEnd int if @PageNumber > 0 Begin SET @PageNumber = @PageNumber -1; SET @RowStart = @PageSize * @PageNumber + 1; SET @RowEnd = @RowStart + @PageSize - 1 ; CREATE TABLE #results (ArticleID int) INSERT INTO #results SELECT ArticleID FROM articles WHERE CONTAINS(Description, @searchText) OR CONTAINS(Title, @searchText) UNION SELECT ArticleID FROM article_pages WHERE CONTAINS(Text, @searchText) /*this returns all matching records from the text search*/ SELECT * FROM articles, #results WHERE #results.ArticleID=articles.ArticleID; WITH tempArticles AS ( SELECT Title, PostDate, UserID, City, Country, Tags, StoryID, Approved, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (order by PostDate) as RowNumber FROM articles WHERE Approved = 1) SELECT * FROM tempArticles WHERE RowNumber >= @RowStart and RowNumber <= @RowEnd; END

Hello, I'm learning about asp .net and I've created a simple application with SQLServer integration. I have 3 text boxes where I can insert text and then use them as parameters for the Select query string of a SqlDataSource which is then bound to a DataGrid.My question is: Is there any default configuration I can use with the SqlDataSource which do not add a given field as a parameter to the WHERE clause if the text box content is empty ? Sure I can sweep through all my text boxes, check if they're empty and dynamically build the WHERE clause with correct parameters, but is theres a built-in, more elegant way to solve this ?Thanks in advance.Arashikage

In SQL7 Query Analyzer we want the results of a SELECT statement not to be displayed on screen but written to a text file.
We assume that in the tons of sp_ and SET statements there should exist
one where output file can be defined.

In TSQL, is there a way to 'Set' the query option results in text as the head of my sql statement?
kind of tired of hit contol+t to get the text result.
also, when I
print '@dateStart--' + cast(@dateStart as varchar(30))
I don't get seconds and I even need mis.
Is there a simple way instead of a combination of datepart() to get ss, mis?
thanks

is it possible to use a full-text search query on two tables at the same time? for example, say i have a table of items, and another table of descriptions... would i be able to search both those tables for a string in one query? they are currently in indexed in separate catalogs, would i need to put them both in one?

Hello folks!
I have written a query that I need to save results of. Is there some statement that I can place at the top of my query (like we can do in Oracle through spool command) to specify the directoryfilename to save query results to? Eventually I need to schedule this to run daily via a DTS package.
Please let me know if you've come across this before?
Thanks so much!
