Imitating Nested For Each Loop In SQL Query

May 25, 2007

Dear All,

I need to create a query to list all the subfolders within a folder.

I have a database table that lists the usual properties of each of the folder.

I have another database table that has two columns

1. Parent folder
2. Child folder

But this table maintains the parent child relationship only to one level.

For example if i have a folder X that has a subfolder Y and Z.
And Y has subfolders A and B.
and B has subfolder C and D
and C has subfolder E and F

The database table will look like

parentfolder child folder
X Y
X Z
Y A
Y B
B C
B D
C E
C F

I want to write a query which will take a folder name as the input and will provide me a list of all the folders and subfolders under it. The query should be based on the table (parent - child) and there should not be any restriction on the subfolder levels to search and report for.

I have been banging my head to do this but i have failed so far. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Nested Loop In SQL Query

Nov 1, 2005

Hi,I'm probably missing something obvious (either that or doing this totally wrong).I'm trying to use a nested loop to generate the following results:Unit          Day1         Day2           Day3        Day4          Day5Name1     25             45               89             54              76Name2     48             54               81             74              98What I have so far is this:WHILE @FCount < @TotalFoodUnitsBEGINSELECT (SELECT Unit FROM tbl_acc_FoodVenues WHERE UnitID = (@FCount + 1)) AS Unit  WHILE @FDCount < @Days BEGIN SELECT  (SELECT FdRevenue_a FROM tbl_acc_aud_SportsAudits WHERE AudDate = DATEADD(day, @FDCount, @pdStartDate)) AS Rev  SET @FDCount = @FDCount + 1 END SET @FCount = @FCount + 1ENDAny suggestions please

Nested While Loop

Dec 10, 2004

Hi there. I want to avoid a cursur using a quite basing nested while loop. The problem is, that the outer index-variable (i) won't increment at all while the inner loop works perfectly.

This one should be quite easy to solve I guess, I'd be very happy if someone could give me a hint what I should try, though because I don't know what to try. The manual didn't help me much either, using CONTINUE and BREAKs didn't solve this problem for me.

My code:
DECLARE @i INTEGER
DECLARE @j INTEGER
SET @i = 1
SET @j = 0

WHILE(@i<= 10) BEGIN
WHILE(@j <= 100) BEGIN
SELECT @i, @j, COUNT(*) as anz FROM mytable WHERE dim1 = @i AND dim2 = @j
SET @j = @j + 1
END
SET @i = @i + 1
END

Thanks a lot for your help :)

Nested Loop Function

Jul 30, 2007

I want to know how to create a recursive loop/function in SQL, I can’t seem to figure out how to do it. 
The database table I am working with is simply the following: 
SeedID, ThisParentSeedID
1, 0
2, 1
3, 1
4, 2
5, 4
6, 5
7, 6
8, 7
9, 7
10, 7
11, 10
12, 0
13, 0
14, 0 
The example table above shows that SeedID 1 = the parent level of the data. SeedID 2 and 3 are children of SeedID 1, 4 is child of 2, 5 is child of 4... 12 13 and 14 are also parent levels (they are not children of anything).  
I want to know how to create a SQL script that is “object orientedâ€? in that I will not have to create as many levels of nested scripts as there are nested “childrenâ€? in the data.  
What I am wanting to figure out is, with a single script, “which sub-children are assigned to [@SeedID]â€?? So if this script was called, and @SeedID = 1, it would return (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11). If @SeedID = 12, it would return null. If @SeedID = 7, it would return (8,9,10,11)  
I have tried to keep my question and data as simple as possible for the sake of getting some feedback or help. If you want me to clarify or explain better, please ask me to!

Nested Loop Join

Jan 26, 2006

Hi,

I have came across a situation -
When there are no indices on the tables and if we force SQL server to use the "Nested Loop" joins, the query becomes very slow. Since there are no indices then Nested loop join should not be used.

The background for this problem is -
Analysis services is sending some query to SQL server while doing the cube processing. SQL server is using Nested loop joins even though there are no indices on any of the tables. Is there any way by which we can force the SQL server/Analysis services not to use Nested loop joins since there are no indices in any of the tables.

regards,
datta.

Looping In SQL 2000 (Can It Be A Nested Loop)

Jul 20, 2005

I have to automate a process that assigns sales leads to sales people.For example:Every day we buy a list of sales leads, it ranges in size from 50 -100 records.We have a team of sales people that also can range from 5 - 8 people.I need to take the new records and divide them evenly among the salespeople.If i get 50 records, and have 5 sales people, then each sales persongets 10 leads.--So, im guessing that I may need to have a nested loop inside this. Ihave tried it several different ways, but cant seem to get it quiteright.DECLARE @TotalRecordCount int, @TotalSalesPeopleCount int,@AmountForEach int, @LooperSalesPeoplerecords int,@LooperNewSalesLeadsRecords int, @SalesPersonID intSELECT @TotalSalesPeopleCount = COUNT(UserId)FROM SalesPeopleWHERE Active = 1--SELECT @TotalRecordCount = COUNT(*)FROM NewSalesLeads--SELECT @AmountForEach = (@TotalRecordCount/@TotalSalesPeopleCount)--SELECT @LooperSalesPeoplerecords = 1SELECT @LooperNewSalesLeadsRecords = 1--WHILE @LooperSalesPeoplerecords <= @TotalSalesPeopleCountBEGINWHILE @LooperNewSalesLeadsRecords <= @TotalRecordCountBEGINSELECT @SalesPersonID = (SELECT UserIDFROM SalesPeopleWHERE UniqueId = @LooperSalesPeoplerecords)SELECT @LooperSalesPeoplerecords =(@LooperSalesPeoplerecords + 1)UPDATE SalesLeadsSET SalesPerson_ID = @SalesPersonIDWHERE UNIQUEID = @LooperSalesPeoplerecordsSELECT @LooperSalesPeoplerecords =(@LooperSalesPeoplerecords + 1)ENDEND----Table structuresCREATE TABLE [dbo].[SalesPeople] ([SalesPerson_ID] [int] NOT NULL ,[FirstName] [varchar](20)NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]--INSERT INTO SalesPeople (SalesPerson_ID,FirstName) VALUES (26, 'Bill')INSERT INTO SalesPeople (SalesPerson_ID,FirstName) VALUES (28, 'Bob')INSERT INTO SalesPeople (SalesPerson_ID,FirstName) VALUES (37,'Chris')------------------------------------------------CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SalesLeads] ([SalesLeadID] [int]NOT NULL ,[SalesPerson_ID] [int]NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]--INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1001,0)INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1002,0)INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1003,0)INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1004,0)INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1005,0)INSERT INTO SalesLeads (SalesLeadID,SalesPerson_ID) VALUES (1006,0)------------------------------------------------So in this case, all 3 salespeople should receive 2 salesleads each.I dummied this down quite a bit. It actually ends up being more like15 sales people, and about 400,000 sales leads. But it should work onany level.Thanks for any help you might shed on this.

Nested Loop Vs. Hash Match?

Dec 20, 2007

I have two queries that seem to be the same, but perform very differently. The first query runs very fast (7000+ records returned in <1 sec.). The execution plan shows that it uses a nested loop with index seeks on both tables.

select *
from t_loadbasic

where ld_nbr in (select ld_nbr from t_tripcombined where comp_date between '11/1/07' and '11/05/07')



The second query is almost the same, save the fact that it uses date variables instead of hard dates. The execution plan shows that it uses a hash match instead of a nested loop with an index scan on the main table (t_loadbasic). This query takes about 12 seconds to run.


declare @startdate datetime


,@enddate datetime


set @startdate = '11/1/07'

set @enddate = '11/5/07'


select *
from t_loadbasic

where ld_nbr in (select ld_nbr from t_tripcombined where comp_date between @startdate and @enddate)

I'm trying to figure out why the database executes these two statements so differently. BTW, I've tried switching the order of the tables. I've tried using joins instead of a subquery. The execution plan seems completely dependant on the use of variables. I can attach the execution plans if necessary.

I apologize if this is too simple a question, but I couldn't find an answer on any forums, web searches or BOL. Thanks in adavance.

Problem Of Inserting In A Nested WHILE Loop In SProc

Help With Nested Query

Mar 2, 2004

I am having trouble with the following query.

Important Tables:
Product (table of products)
--ProductID
--ProductName

ProductCategories (Associates a Product with one or more categories)
--ProductID
--CategoryID

Category (table of categories that a product may fall under)
--CategoryID
--CategoryName

Information:

Basically I have a product that falls into two categories. Therefore there are two records in the ProcuctCategories Table. I am trying to create a query that will find all products that are in categories 1 & 2.

Attempted Solution:
SELECT * FROM Product
WHERE (ProductID IN (SELECT CategoryID FROM ProductCategories WHERE CategoryID =1))
AND
(ProductID IN (SELECT CategoryID FROM ProductCategories WHERE CategoryID =2))

This returned zero records though it should have returned the product that is in categories 1&2.

I would appreciate any help available.

Thank you,
-Patrick

Nested Repeater Query

Mar 11, 2007

Hello Everyone,I am trying to create a query for the purpose of a nested repeater relation. The information needs to be pulled from one table. I have shortened the columns to the ones that are required.table - PagesIDPageNameParentPageIDSo, take the following example:ID 14, PageName - Service A, ParentPage ID = 6ID 15, PageName - Service B, ParentPage ID = 6ID 36 PageName - Client 1, ParentPage ID = 14ID 37 PageName - Client 2, ParentPage ID = 14ID 38 PageName - Client 3, ParentPage ID = 15ID 39 PageName - Client 4, ParentPage ID = 15 So, I want to create a query that will get my nested repeater to display as follows:Service A    Client 1    Client 2Service B    Client 3    Client 4What I have come up with so far is:SELECT * from tbl_Pages WHERE ParentPageID IN  (Select ID From tbl_Pages)SELECT p.ParentPageID, p.PageName, p.ID FROM tbl_Pages pThe relation would be based off ParentPageID. I keep getting errors that either there is no unique value or the relation is null. What am I am missing here?

Nested Exists Query

I am trying to write a query that does not use inner joins to see if it returns rows faster than a query using inner joins.
My trouble is that I don't know how to write the syntax for the 3rd table that I am comparing against.
Can I nest Exists in a Where clause?
If so how is the 2nd exists statement added to the query?
see my sample query below

Nested Query Question

Aug 4, 2001

Hi, I have the following scenario that I am not sure how to best tackle. Any
advice or examples is appreciated.

I am creating a stored proc that requires a code to be passed to it. In
return data gathered from 3 different tables will be returned. The big catch
is that 1 of the tables resided in a differenct database.

So, here is the data layout.

Database 1, Table 1 contains the following fields: Job, CustID, ShipID, and
ShipMethod.

Database 2, Table 1 contains CustID, ShipID, Address, City, State, Zip,
etc...

Database 2, Table 2 contains CustID, CustomerName.

So the first question is how should the stored proc look with an input
parameter of "Job" and output of Job, CustID, ShipMethod, ShipID, Address,
City, State, Zip, and CustomerName?

Secondly, which database should the stored proc reside?

Again, any advise, suggestions, pointers, etc. are appreciated.

Nested Query Troubles...

Jan 26, 2006

Hi All,

Can anybody please tell me if a query such as this (Valid in MS Access)
can work in SQL Server:


SELECT Description, Sum(Total) FROM (
SELECT Description, Total FROM Table_A
UNION ALL
SELECT Description, Total FROM Table_B
UNION ALL
SELECT Description, Total FROM Table_C
)
GROUP BY Description


The group of unions work by themselves, but when I try to nest an outer query to do some a Summation(), I have syntax errors.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Nested Query (Urgent)

Feb 17, 2004

Folks

I have two queries

Select Account_Id , Branch_Cd from Accounts

SELECT SUM (dbo.HOLDING.Shares_Par_Value_Qty * dbo.ASSET.Current_Prc) AS MarketValue
FROM dbo.HOLDING INNER JOIN
dbo.ASSET ON dbo.HOLDING.Property_Num = dbo.ASSET.Property_Num
Group by dbo.HOLDING.Account_ID

Account_ID is the same in both the queries ie in both the tables
Holding and Account.


I need the output like this


Select Account_Id, Branch_Cd, MarketValue from -------



But MarketValue should be calculated exactly in the above method.
How do I combine these two queries. I need it asap.
Help me out.



Thanks

Nested Query Or Should I Use Over Partition Perhaps?

Nov 7, 2007

I have the following result set #1 from the query below. As you can see, there are four different provider roles and four different physicians listed for the same case (acctnum). Is there a way I could add a nested select (or other method) which would allow me to list this case as one line item to appear in the manner of result set #2?

RESULT SET #1 (the results of the query I have now)

Nested Query Question

Mar 17, 2008

I guess I need help in understanding how to do the nested query option and see what works here and what doesn't.

Lets go with some psudo code

SELECT Col1, Col2, COUNT(*) AS Expr1 FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Col2 = Table2.Col1

Why doesn't the following work, is there a work around?

SELECT Col1, Col2, COUNT(*) AS Expr1, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Table2) As Expr2 FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Col2 = Table2.Col1

Nested Query With Distinct Function

Jan 12, 2015

I need to know how many widgets are located at each factory.

I have a table called "Widgets". The pertinent column(s) are:

Factory UID

By using only this table I can group the results by the FactoryUID to get the answer. However, this table does not tell me the factory name.

I have a table called "Factories". The pertinent column(s) are:

FactoryUID
FactoryName

I can join these two tables by the FactoryUID. But I don't know how to write this query so that my results will look like the following table:

FactoryName Widgets
Factory1 100
Factory2 200
Factory3 300

Multiple Counts In One Nested Query: How?

May 12, 2008

I'd appreciate some help with the issue below - my SQL is a bit rusty and was never that hot to be frank. I'm using SQL Server 2000 (although have a test box with 2005 Express also). I've trawled MSDN and a few forums but can't find the solution (maybe I don't know what I'mm looking for!), so any help would be marvellous...

I have a table with a field called 'IRV' containing a string of comma-separated values. I want to be able to query a point in that string and count the number of times a given value appears. So...as an example, I want to count how many times '1' appears at position 7 in the IRV. I can create SQL to do this as follows:


SELECT COUNT(X) AS is1
FROM myIRVtable
WHERE (SUBSTRING(IRV, 7, 1) = '1')


So far so good. However, it is also possible that the value at position 7 in this string could be '2' (or '3', or '4', etc) - and rather than re-running the query again and again to get these values, I'd like to do it in one hit.

How can I combine all this together - anyone have any brilliant solutions?

Nested Scalar Query Problem

Jan 31, 2008



I'm having a trouble with a nested scalar query

I have a table that refers to itself, and I need to loop through it to get the total number of entries in the structure with an object_type of 40 this is the function I came up with to do this. The problem is that the nested function doesn't seem to get called.

You can see it adding and checking the values and attempting to call itself, but it never seems to get re-called, any ideas?

Problem With WHERE On ROW_NUMBER When Using Nested Query

Sep 11, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to limit a result set by ROW_NUMBER. However, I am having problems getting it working.

The following query works fine, and I get a result set with PollID, AddedDate and RowNum columns.


SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Results.AddedDate DESC) AS RowNum FROM



( SELECT DISTINCT p.PollID, p.AddedDate

FROM vw_vs_PollsWithVoteCount p

JOIN vs_PollOptions o ON p.PollID = o.PollID

) AS Results

However, as soon as I add a WHERE condition:


SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Results.AddedDate DESC) AS RowNum FROM



( SELECT DISTINCT p.PollID, p.AddedDate

FROM vw_vs_PollsWithVoteCount p

JOIN vs_PollOptions o ON p.PollID = o.PollID

) AS Results

WHERE RowNum BETWEEN 1 AND 10


The query fails with an ' Invalid column name 'RowNum' ' error.

I have tried using 'Results.RowNum' but I get the same problem.


I don't understand what the issue is. The result set has a column headed 'RowNum' so why can't I apply a WHERE clause to this column? I can apply WHERE to the PollID column, for example, with no problem.

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks...

Table Update With Count In Nested Query

Oct 8, 2012

I have added some SQL to an Access form which updates the dbo_BM_Map table when the user hits the Apply button. There is a temp table with various fields, two being "Chapter_No" and "Initial_Mapping_Complete" which the update is based on.

I want this update to only apply to chapters that only have one name in the "Initial_Mapping_Complete" column. If a chapter has more than one then the update should ignore it. The attached screengrab shows you. The update should ignore chapter 19 as there are two people (Jim and James) in the Initial_Mapping_Complete field. Here is my code.

pdate dbo_BM_Map inner Join Temp_Progression_Populate
on dbo_BM_Map.Product_ID = Temp_Progression_Populate.Product_ID
Set dbo_BM_Map.Initial_Mapping_Complete = Temp_Progression_Populate.Initial_Mapping_Complete
Where dbo_BM_Map.Chapter_No = Temp_Progression_Populate.Chapter_No
And Temp_Progression_Populate.Initial_Mapping_Complete in
(Select count(Initial_Mapping_Complete), Chapter_No
from Temp_Progression_Populate
Group by Chapter_No
Having Count(Initial_Mapping_Complete) = 1)
