the basic pattern is... a user has approvers, and those approvers have approvers as well... i have 4 columns of approvers.. and if my first approver is the manager, then my second approver will be the managers approver and my third approver will be the managers approver's approver and so on..
on my actual page, i have select fields for the app, app2, app3, app4 and i need it so that when i change the very first app, it'll automatically update app2, app3, and app4
any ideas how i would do this? im pretty new to sql but im thinking i would use some type of join?
I want to combine two of my fields somewhat like when you combine to char fields and concatenate them. But these two fields are int. How do i do that? Here's my query right now:
Code Block SELECT AutoID, CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Year )+ CONVERT(Varchar(Mars_Calender_Period_Code) as MarsId FROM NavisionReplication.dbo.Tbl_Mars_Calender ORDER BY Mars_Calender_Year DESC
I know there has to be a way to do this, but I've gone brain dead. Thescenario..a varchar field in a table contains a date range (i.e. June 1,2004 - June 15, 2004 or September 1, 2004 - September 30, 2004 or...). Theusers have decided thats a bad way to do this (!) so they want to split thatfield into two new fields. Everything before the space/dash ( -) goes intoa 'FromDate' field, everything after the dash/space goes into the 'ToDate'field. I've played around with STRING commands, but haven't stumbled on ityet. Any help at all would be appreciated! DTS?
I am trying to populate a field in a SQL table based on the valuesreturned from using substring on a text field.Example:Field Name = RecNumField Value = 024071023The 7th and 8th character of this number is the year. I am able toget those digits by saying substring(recnum,7,2) and I get '02'. Nowwhat I need to do is determine if this is >= 50 then concatenate a'19' to the front of it or if it is less that '50' concatenate a '20'.This particular example should return '2002'. Then I want to take theresult of this and populate a field called TaxYear.Any help would be greatly apprecaietd.Mark
I am trying to JOIN table on datetime column truncated to full minutes with other table, where I store time intervals (in order to have all minutes in result even when there was no event in main data table).
SELECT dateadd(minute, datediff(minute, 0, StartTime), 0) as StartTimeMinute ,ApplicationName ,COUNT(*) as Requests FROM dbo.Profiler as p INNER JOIN dbo.MinuteIntervals as i ON i.TIMEVALUE = p.StartTimeMinute WHERE EventClass IN (10,12) GROUP BY dateadd(minute, datediff(minute, 0, StartTime), 0), ApplicationName ORDER BY StartTimeMinute
How to join on p.StartTimeMinute? I do understand why this doesn't work, as p.StartTimeMinute is calculated in my query, so JOIN cannot find it in original p table.
This morning we had an issue with a simple join between 2 tables e.g. table1 and table2. Both tables have 1 column called 'fielda' with datatype varchar.
Let's assume the following values: Table1: hello Hello
Table2: hello
This statement joins the tables: select a.fielda from table1 a inner join table2 b on a.fielda = b.fielda
It returns: hello Hello
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? What the $#@#$ Why doesn't it return 1 value: hello
Any ideas? The outcome is exactly what we want but I would expected to have to use the following: select a.fielda
from table1 a inner join table2 b on UPPER(a.fielda) = UPPER(b.fielda)
What if I wanted to return all EXACT matches? Then what? Change collation?

The formula for the above calculated fields are as below:
Opening Balance = carried forward balance from Year 2005 Debit = All positive amount Credit = All negative amount Net Change = Total Credit - Total Debit in Period 01 Balance = Total of Net Change + Opening Bal
Guys, hope someone out there can help me with the sql command for the above report?

I am setting up a database that will receive a lot of data from twoseparate telephone centers, the log table will in a short time haveover 1 million lines, and I was wondering if I should use 1 identifyfield or two:case 1:[Id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL[ServerId] [int] NOT NULLcase 2:[Id] [varchar(20)] IDENTITY NOT NULLWhere in case 1 I would just use a combination of Id and ServerId toidentify the line, where in case 2 I would have the Id field a varcharthat would look something like A-000001, A-000002 for server 1 andB-000001, B-000002 for server 2Which solution will be faster when searching for a record when thewill have over 1 million lines?
Hi! I need to sync an application on windows mobile 5 that uses sql server mobile with sql server 2005. I've tried Merge and it populated the tables on the server with new fields and triggers. Does RDA do the same thing?

I'm developing a report in RS 2000 that uses two datasets. The first dataset provides data to a drill-down report on the top part of the screen and the second small dataset provides some data for additional summary information on the bottom of the screen. I'm getting a runtime error "An unexpected error occurred in Report Processing. The expression referenced a non-existing field in the fields collection." Of course, I've edited every expression I can think of: text boxes, data grid, parameters, filters, drill-down lists... I think I've gone through every object on the report but I can't isolate the bad expression. Can anyone suggest a better way to debug this type of error? It compiles fine, but fails in runtime. thanks.
I want to query TABLE1, row 1 so that I pull back the Names for the values stored in the ID and Other_ID fields so that my results are like: John Bob Number1
The only way around it now is that I store Other_Name in Table1.
I have a table with eight (8) fields, including the primary key (rfpid). Three of the fields are foreign keys, which take their values form lookup tables. They are int fields (pmid, sectorid, officeid). One of the fields in this table is based on putting together the descriptive field in the lookup table for sector (tblsector). The two other fields to be part of this string are the rfpname and rfpid. This creates the following string:
The words rfp, proposals are words that have to be part of string;
the slashes are to also appear.
current_year would be defaulting to datepart = year (2008)
The part that has the last two digits of the current year then the underscore and then the rfpid should be connected by an underscore to the rfpname. I am at a loss and would greatly appreciate any help.
I have a table with two sets of fields, one for PRIMARY Mail Address and the other for ALTERNATE Mail Address. Both sets are five fields long. I will call them PRIMARY & ALTERNATE for this discussion. I want to select the PRIMARY fields if ALTERNATE is either null or zero, and the ALTERNATE fields if data is present.
I have used this syntax but it gives a table with both the PRIMARY & SECONDARY records.
SELECT TXPRCL, TXALTR, TXANAM FROM dbo.PCWEBF21 WHERE (TXALTR > 0) UNION SELECT TXPRCL, TXTAXP, TXTNAM FROM dbo.PCWEBF21 WHERE TXALTR = 0
Would a Select Case work? something like
Select PRIMARY when ALTERNATE = 0, and ALTERNATE when ALTERNATE > 0 or is not null.
I hope someone has already done this, but I have a table with a text column- example ColA, now i want to run a query to select the ColA in this table and combine the results of ColA into a ColB in another table.
Something like - Note: the codes below doesn't work!!
DECLARE @ResultID as int DECLARE @AccID int DECLARE _rows CURSOR FOR SELECT AccID FROM tableA
FETCH NEXT FROM _rows INTO @AccID
WHILE (@@fetch_status <> -1) BEGIN
UPDATE TableB SET Report = Report + (SELECT txtField FROM tableA WHERE AccID = @AccID)

Hi All. I apologise if i have not posted this in the correct Topic before i start. But was uncertain where to post this query. This is my first project in ASP.NET, MS Visual Web Developer 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have relatively little experience, so please bare with me. I have the table below:- Column Name Data Type OrderID intOrderNo intInvoiceNo varchar(50)PurchaseDate smalldatetimeCost moneyInsure money I wish to have a dropdownlist on an aspx page display the OrderNo and the Cost e.g. 12345 £3.50. I have tried the SQL Statement below but that just calculates the addition of both. SELECT OrderNo + ' ' + Cost AS Expr1 FROM [Order] Do i have to convert them both to string/varchar first? If so, how? Thanks for your replies.
I have the following problem that I can use some help with :
I have a table in a linked server that has the date stored in three fields (i.e. day,month and year (I have no idea why)). I would like to concatenate these three fields together into a datetime format in a SQL statement
I have just started to look at SQL and have a theory question that I could apply to a test I want to run. I have some legacy data from a previous project and the database was not designed properly (in my opinion). They have ONE field to capture City and State information. All the data is formatted City, State .
Does SQL have commands that can look at data in a field, strip out info before and info after a comma and then write that to other fields?
So, I would like to normalize this to take the data in a field called CityState and parse it, trim it and then populate two new fields 1) City and 2) State.
