I need a little insight on how to select the same field from the same table, but for different criteria.
here are example tables...
Categories
CATSUBCATNAME
10MainTitle
11SubTitle #1
12SubTitle #2
20Section
21Section #1
DataTable
CATSUBCATINFO
11Detail Information for subtitle #1
12Detail information for subtitle #2
desired result would be:
MainTitle, SubTitle #1, Detail Information for subtitle #1
MainTitle, SubTitle #2, Detail Information for subtitle #2
Select c1.Name, c2.Name, d.info
from DataTable d, Categories c1, Categories c2
where c1.CAT = d.CAT
and c2.CAT = d.CAT
and c2.SUBCAT = d.SUBCAT

I want to update the Table Y with the Sum of the Fields V from X based on the Criteria Y.fy = X.y and Y.fm = X.m
Using temporary table cannot be done.
Thanks in Advance,

Hello,
I have this SP that works, except I need to add another field value for the WHERE clause. As you can see I have "WM" but I need to add "PR", and those two are definitely in the table field. I've tried a variety of syntax arrangements using the AND operator, the OR operator, the & operator, just a comma between the two, nothing between the two. Can someone please show me what I'm doing wrong. It fileters for "WM" fine, but I also need it to filter in the WHERE clause for "PR". Here is the SP:
CREATE procedure spDemoSchedule (@beginDate varchar(10), @endDate varchar(10), @storeNum int)
AS
SELECT Progstats.[Program#], Progstats.KCKOFF, Progstats.ProgramName, Progstats.Parent, Store.[Str#], Store.Status, Progstats.Dept, Store.[Program#], Product.[Item#], Product.[Item]
FROM Progstats INNER JOIN Product ON Progstats.[Program#] = Product.[Program#] INNER JOIN Store ON Progstats.[Program#] = Store.[Program#]
WHERE Progstats.KCKOFF BETWEEN @beginDate AND @endDate AND Store.[Str#]=@storeNum AND Progstats.CLASS="WM"
GO
TIA,
Bruce Wexler

I am trying to set up a query that will allow the user to input a string, and the search will match ANY word in that string. Currently, I have it configured so that the search will only match the exact string that the user inputs. I have google searched for the answer, but no luck yet. Any ideas?

Is it possible to count the same field with different criteria. It would be something like this.
car_table
car_id
car_name
car_brand
So you would execute a statement which would count(car_brand) with two different criteria.
I am not sure if this is possible or if there is another way to approach it.

I know only enough SQL to be dangerous, but I'm stumped by this general task.
I need to know the method for selecting info from several fields of the records that satisfy a group function criteria on one of the fields. Example: Table contains Employees, products, amounts. If I group on Employee, and product, I can find the total amount of each product's sales for that employee.
create view prod_sales_by_emplyoee
select
employee
product
SUM(amount) as empl_prod_total
from sales
group by employee, product
But if I want to know which product made each employee the most money, I don't know how to do that, because the MAX function works on each field individually, not by row. From the above view, (or a table created from it) I want to know how to identify, for each employee, the product they made the most money selling, and what proportion of their total sales that product accounted for. Then, I'd like to use those results to eliminate the top tier, and find their second place product, etc.
I can do this in Access by sorting the table produced from the above view by empl_prod_total in decending order, joining that to a view that groups by employee only and provides a total, then using a grouped query on the joined data, I can use the "FIRST" function to find the values in each field of the record with the highest sales for that employee. However SQL doesn't have the FIRST function in its aggregate functions.
I suspect there's a standard way SQL does this, but it wasn't in my class. HELP!

In Access, I use [Enter Date] in the Criteria field of the Query. I tried the same thing in SQL Server in the Criteria field of the View and it does not recognize this. Is there a comparable command in SQL to get user input into the Criteria field of a view?

When querying a bit field, I am encountering a problem with MS SQLServer returning a larger number of records for a table than theactual number of records that exist within that table.For example, my customer table has 1 million unique records, so theresults of the following query are as such:select count(customer_nbr) from customer = 1,000,000There is bit field in the customer table that denotes whether acustomer has placed an order with us called. That flag is calledorder_flagIf I run the following query:select count(customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1The result is 3,000,000 records.There is no logical way that this is possible, as my table onlycontains 1,000,000 unique records and the number of customers with anorder should be a subset of this.If a run the above query with a distinct before customer number, I getthe results I want:select count(distinct customer_nbr) from customer where order_flag = 1600,000 records.So while I can get to the answer I want, I have no idea why I amreturning incorrect values if I don't select distinct.Can anyone help? I checked microsoft support and message boards buthaven't seen anything.I should note that the bit field is indexed.I am not sure if that isthe problem or not.

i have tbl_location which includes userid, building, room. i combine the building and room into one feild called mailstop
SELECT Userid, Building +'/'+Room AS mailstop
FROM tbl_Location
i then want to take this recordset and insert it into a field called mailstop in my employee table. but they must based upon the userid of the location table and the userid of the employee table.
so the userid of the location table must match the userid of the employee table and insert that mailstop value into the mailstop feild in employee table. i want to get this right the first time. any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi, i need help with a query:SELECT Headshot, UserName, HeadshotId FROM tblProfile INNER JOIN Headshots ON Headshots.ProfileId=tblProfile.ProfileId WHERE (UserName= @UserName) this query will select what I want from the database, but the problem is that I have multiple HeadshotIds for each profile, and I only want to select the TOP/highest HeadshotId and get one row foreach headshotId. Is there a way to do that in 1 SQL query? I know how to do it with multiple queries, but im using SqlDataSource and it only permits one. Thanks!

I have the following Select SQL Statement in which I get the count of the 'Code' column based upon a criteria and Group By clause:BEGIN
SELECT Code, COUNT(Code)as exprCount1a
FROM dbo.[Test]
WHERE Section = '1' and Item = 'a' GROUP BY Code ORDER BY Code
END
The results of the statement:
Code | exprCount1a
1 22 44 1
I would like the following results:
Code | exprCount1a
1 22 4
3 04 1
Note: Code ' 3 ' doesn't have any rows that meet the select count statement criteria but I still need to populate ' 0 ' in the results.
Thank you in advance

I am trying to create a SELECT statement that would allow my users to type in a date parameter like 6/25/04. My SELECT statement would then pull all entries for that date. The problem I am running into is that it seems SQL wants the date to be parameterized as between 6/25/04 and 6/25/04 11:59:30 PM. Is there any way around that? Again I would like my users to simply enter 6/25/04 and have all entries pulled. Thanks for any help.

I have the following query that should return the most recent FormNote entry for a work order where the note begins with "KPI". However if someone decides to a more recent note, it selects that one, even if it doesn't begin with "KPI".
I would like it to return the most recent record that ALSO begins with "KPI". How can I correct this?
Select wh.worknumber, wh.date_created, wh.itemcode, wn.TextEntry as [Notes] from worksorderhdr wh left join
(select ID, WorksOrder,[CreationDate], TextEntry
from
(
select ROW_NUMBER()over(partition by worksorder order by [CreationDate] desc) OID,*
from FormNotes
)orders where orders.OID=1 ) wn on wn.WorksOrder = wh.worknumber where TextEntry like 'KPI%'
Sample results below, see line 5 - this record should not have been selected as there is a record beginning with "KPI" for that work order, but it is dated before this one.
worknumber date_created itemcode Notes

Hi
I would like to get records from a table and present a result set based upon the search fields
the search fields could be any of the following: PNo, Year, JNo, C1No6, C2No3, C3No3, C4No3,
they could enter any combination of these however if they dont enter any of the above then the search should not retrieve any thing. the table colunms are listed below and asample data set is also shown below.
Currently the only way i think it can be done is by writing multiple queries with different queries to be executed based upon the search field that have been filled? can it be done in a stored prcedure? and can it be done using non-dynamic sql?
Name, PNo, Year, JNo, C1No6, C2No3, C3No3, C4No3, RefImage

I'm new to MS SQL and VB. I have a table with one field JOB_NAME containing 20 records. Out of that field I want to retrieve 6 of the 20 records into a pulldown menu. They are all unique text names like so:
Anna Smith
John Doe
etc. I did not see IDs listed for any of the names in the table when I looked.
There is no common denominator to the names that can be filtered in the SELECT statement, and the 6 that I want will need to be pulled out individually.
Is there a way to do this with a SELECT statement? I have not found much information about how to extract unique records out of a single field. Here's the statement I'm using which pulls all of them:
strSQL = "SELECT DISTINCT JOB_NAME AS Names FROM [WORKER_NAMES] WHERE JOB_NAME<>' ' ORDER BY JOB_NAME ASC"
This gives me the total list but I only want to bring back 6 of the 20 for the pulldown.
Is there a way to modify this statement to pull only the records that I want?
Thanks for any help you can give.

I have a table (ScriptTable) which holds a groupID Nvarchar(10) ,SQLStatement Nvarchar (150)
Table Fields =
GroupID SQLStatement
1234 Select CUSTNO, CUSTNAME,CUSTADDRESS from custtable where customerNo = 'AB123'

I would like to write 1 proc that can take additional criteria if its sent in. An example is:
select HA.PriceId, HA.VendorPackageId from Criteria HA Inner Join
(
select VendorPackageId from ValidVendorPackages
where Vendor = @VENDOR
and Sitecode = @SITECODE
and PackageType = @PACKAGETYPE
)HB on HA.VendorPackageId = HB.VendorPackageId
and CriteriaId in
(
select CriteriaID from ValidItemCriteria
where Destination = @DESTINATION
and LengthOfStay = @LENGTHOFSTAY
and Ages = @AGE
and ComponentType = @COMPONENTTYPE_1
and ValidItemType = @VALIDITEMTYPE_1
and ItemValue = @ITEMVALUE_1
)
Multiple @COMPONENTTYPE, @VALIDITEMTYPE,@ITEMVALUE can be sent in.
Instead of making multiple procs or copying the proc multiple times with an if statement at the top checking the number of parameters that aren't =''. Is there a way to exectue:
and CriteriaId in
(
select CriteriaID from ValidItemCriteria
where Destination = @DESTINATION
and LengthOfStay = @LENGTHOFSTAY
and Ages = @AGE
and ComponentType = @COMPONENTTYPE_1
and ValidItemType = @VALIDITEMTYPE_1
and ItemValue = @ITEMVALUE_1
)
and CriteriaId in
(
select CriteriaID from ValidItemCriteria
where Destination = @DESTINATION
and LengthOfStay = @LENGTHOFSTAY
and Ages = @AGE
and ComponentType = @COMPONENTTYPE_2
and ValidItemType = @VALIDITEMTYPE_2
and ItemValue = @ITEMVALUE_2
)
and CriteriaId in
(
select CriteriaID from ValidItemCriteria
where Destination = @DESTINATION
and LengthOfStay = @LENGTHOFSTAY
and Ages = @AGE
and ComponentType = @COMPONENTTYPE_3
and ValidItemType = @VALIDITEMTYPE_3
and ItemValue = @ITEMVALUE_3
)
Ignoring the 2nd 2 selects if @COMPONENTTYPE_2, @VALIDITEMTYPE_2,@ITEMVALUE_2 and @COMPONENTTYPE_3, @VALIDITEMTYPE_3,@ITEMVALUE_3 are = ''

Have a need to scan a large table to see if a set of criteria have ever been met.
If/when the scan hits its first record meeting the criteria, the scan can be abandoned.
Is there some syntax/option that accomplishes this?
Right now, I am doing a SELECT with criteria against the table and the @@ROWCOUNT gives me a zero, or non-zero value.
But that methodology means that the SELECT has to execute against the entirety of the table.
I'd like to abandon the SELECT as soon as it detects a first record meeting the criteria.

Let me start with saying thanks to all of you who have helped me (I'm a SQL newbee after doing OO for the past 12+ years)
I need to do several aggregates on multiple columns, with each column having different SELECT Criteria.
Sample Data:
Dept Project Cost CostFlag Schedule ScheduleFlag
D1 D1P1 495 1 135 3
D1 D1P2 960 2 70 2
D1 D1P3 1375 3 105 2
D1 D1P4 1050 2 160 3
D1 D1P5 1890 3 40 1
D2 D2P1 650 1 155 3
D2 D2P2 890 2 125 2
D2 D2P3 1235 3 85 1
D2 D2P4 430 1 140 3
D3 D3P1 1960 3 45 1
D3 D3P2 1490 3 85 1
D3 D3P3 1025 2 135 3
D3 D3P4 615 1 100 2
D3 D3P5 270 1 70 1
D3 D3P6 815 2 155 3
I need to calculate MEAN (average), Standard Deviation, Variance, Range, Span & Median for each data column (Cost, Schedule in the test data), where each data column has different selection criteria. I have the calculations working for each column individually (e.g. funcCalcCost, funcCalcSchedule), but I need to return the calculated values as a single data set:
SELECT Dept, Project, AVG(Cost) as Cost_Mean, MAX(Cost) - MIN(Cost) as Cost_Range, .......
WHERE CostFlag = @InputParameter
GROUP BY Dept, Project
The code above works great - but only for a single column. I need to return a dataset like this:
Dept Project Cost_Mean Cost_Range
D1 D1P1 495 135
D1 D1P2 960 70
D1 D1P3 1375 105
I need to return a dataset like this:
Dept Project Cost_Mean Cost_Range Schedule_Mean Schedule_Range
D1 D1P1 495 135 100 28
D1 D1P2 960 70 42 12
D1 D1P3 1375 105 91 38
I also have working code calculate the MEDIAN (what a pain that was, thank god I found a code example to get me going on the MEDIAN)
Thanks!

I need to sum these amounts running from July to the month prior to whatever the current month is. So if it was August, it would only be
Code:
SELECT (JUL_CURR_CREDITS + JUL_CURR_DEBITS) as CURR_AMT
Is there a cleaner (shorter) way to iterate through the twelve months than either writing the query 12 times in an IF statement, or 12 CASE statements? This is only part of a query that joins several tables (not shown).
Any suggestions on the best way to write this would be valued.

Hi! I'm new to SQL and have a question...
I'm writing a script that gathers a few variables from an outside source, then queries a table and looks for a record that has the exact values of those variables. If the record is not found, a new record is added. If the record is found, nothing happens.
Basically my SELECT statement looks something like this, then is followed by an If... Else statement
SELECT * FROM TableName
WHERE LastName = varLastName
AND FirstName = varFirstName
AND Address = varAddress
If RecordSet.EOF = True Then
'Item Not Found, add new record
'code to add new record......
Else
'Item Found, do nothing
End If
RecordSet.Update
RecordSet.Close
Even when I try to delete the If.. statement and simply display the records, it comes up as blank. Is the syntax correct for my SELECT statement??

Hey gang,
I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query')
I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling.
Here's my current Query this works fine:
Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum
From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo
Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#')
What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note.
I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello:
I need assistance writing a SELECT statement. I need data from a table that matches one (or more) of multiple criteria, and I need to know which of those criteria it matched. For instance, looking at the Orders table in the Northwind database, I might want all the rows with an OrderDate after Jan 1, 1997 and all the rows with a ShippedDate after June 1, 1997. Depending on which of those criteria the row matches, it should include a field stating whether it is in the result set because of its OrderDate, or its ShippedDate. One way of doing this that I've already tried is:
SELECT 'OrderDate' AS [ChosenReason], Orders.*FROM OrdersWHERE OrderDate > '1-1-1997'UNIONSELECT 'ShippedDate' AS [ChosenReason], Orders.*FROM OrdersWHERE ShippedDate > '6-1-1997'
In my application, scanning a table with thousands of records for five sets of criteria takes a few seconds to run, which is not acceptable to my boss. Is there a better way of doing this than with the UNION operator?
Thank you

For example, consider the following queries:
DECLARE @SomeParam INT
SET @SomeParam = 44
SELECT *
FROM TableA A
JOIN TableB B ON A.PrimaryKeyID = B.ForeignKeyID
WHERE B.SomeParamColumn = @SomeParam
SELECT *
FROM TableA A
JOIN TableB B ON A.PrimaryKeyID = B.ForeignKeyID AND B.SomeParamColumn = @SomeParam
Both of these queries return the same result set, but the first query filters the results in the WHERE clause whereas the the second query filters the results in the JOIN criteria. Once upon a time a DBA told me that I should always use the syntax of the first query (WHERE clause). Is there any truth to this, and if so, why?
Thanks.

I am trying to clean up an old database someone developed. I took the data and grouped the information that matched
I then imported it into a trips table. The matching data is all in the where statement. It shrunk 16k records for just under 2k records. Now I am trying to right a query to relate the 2 tables and update the tripid# to the triplist of people who actually attended.
Declare @Trip varchar(500)
Declare @Destination Varchar(500)
Declare @LeaveDate varchar(500)
Declare @LeaveTime Varchar(500)
Declare @ReturnDate varchar(500)
Declare @ReturnTime varchar(500)
Declare @Comment varchar(500)
Declare @RescheduleDate Varchar(500)
Declare @Rec int
Select @Rec = Rec# From Trips
Select @Trip = Trip from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @Destination = Destination from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @LeaveDate = LeaveDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @LeaveTime = LeaveTime from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @ReturnDate = ReturnDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @ReturnTime = ReturnTime from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @Comment = Comment from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Select @RescheduleDate = RescheduleDate from [Trips] where Trips.rec# = @Rec
Update TripList
SET tripid# = @Rec
WHERE (Trip = @Trip) and (Destination = @Destination) and (LeaveDate = @LeaveDate) and (LeaveTime = @LeaveTime) and (ReturnDate = @ReturnDate) and (ReturnTime = @ReturnTime) and (Comment = @Comment) and (RescheduleDate = @RescheduleDate)

Update all B in tableX where TableX.LotNo=TableY.Lotno with the value from TableY.B
Anyone feel generous enuf to help a newbie out?
