Hi alll
I have these tables below with 3 fields each. I want to get the record
in table 1 whose field number value is same in table 2 but field number
2 on both tables are different. I mean i want the record
1500 800 2. Insight: Table 1 is modules ordered and table 2 is modules
delivered. I want to get 1500 800 2.beacuse module 800 was ordered but
in table 2 module 503 was delivered. can some one help me with a join
We find that a delete command on a table where the rows to be deleted involve an inner join between the table and a view formed with an outer join sometimes works, sometimes gives error 625.
If the delete is recoded to use the join key word instead of the = sign then it alway gives error 4425.
625 21 0 Could not retrieve row from logical page %S_PGID by RID because the entry in the offset table (%d) for that RID (%d) is less than or equal to 0. 1033 4425 16 0 Cannot specify outer join operators in a query containing joined tables. View '%.*ls' contains outer join operators. The delete with a correleted sub query instead of a join works.
Error 4425 text would imply that joins with view formed by outer joins should be avoided.
SQL Server 2000Howdy All.Is it going to be faster to join several tables together and thenselect what I need from the set or is it more efficient to select onlythose columns I need in each of the tables and then join them together?The joins are all Integer primary keys and the tables are all about thesame.I need the fastest most efficient method to extract the data as thisquery is one of the most used in the system.Thanks,Craig
Why is it that SQL joins (*=) run a little faster as opposed to ANSI joins(LEFT JOIN...)? Aren't they supposed to be almost identical?
The issue is this: we are promoting using ANSI syntax for the obvious reason (future versions of SQL Server may not support SQL Server syntax; portability, etc.)
However, the problem is the speed. What have others done about this? Do you use ANSI syntax or SQL syntax? HOw true is it that future SQL Server versions may discontinue support for the '*=" and "=*' join operators.
I have four tables which I want to return results for an advanced search function, the tables contain different data, but can be quite easily joined,
Table A Contains a Main Image, this image is displayed in the results Table B Contains an Icon, this image is displayed in the results Table C doesn't have an image in it but has a child table with a number of images associated to the table, in the UNION ALL statement I would Like to do a Join to get say the top Image from this child and print it for the row associated with table C.
Select title, description, image from tableA UNION ALL Select title, description, icon as image from tableB UNION ALL title, description, ( inner Join SELECT top(1) from imageTableC where imagetableC.FK = tableC.PK) as image from tableC
Could someone show me the syntax to do this, I have all the information printing to the screen, bar this table C image.
Im having a problem with a statement i cannot seem to get 2 left joins working at the same time 1 works fine but when i try the second join i get this error:-
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'

I am using an Access database i have tried all sorts to get it working and its driving me mad!! any help would be really appreciated.
Hello, I have a table of data with the following columns:ParticipantResult (win or lose)The table has other data in, but I want to make a league to sort by the amounts of wins. For example: Participant Won PlayedA 5 10B 4 7C 3 3 I want this to show up on web page. I was hoping to do this through the source code on the web page, but I am struggling to do it.Is there a better way to do this, or a place where I can see an example of the code. Many Thanks, Oliver
I hope I can explain this somewhat coherantly. Here goes..
I have a products database. I want to select product details for items having distinct style codes. IE if there are 20 products that different from one another in some way, and 3 different style numbers throughout them, I want to end up with 3 products selected. I don't care which ones, as long as i have a sample product for each style. I've attemped to use GROUP BY to do this, but it's not giving me what I want. I managed to get right number of products, but the query seems to have mixed and matched the fields together in an undesireable way. I guess this kinda makes sense, since providing aggregate functions for each of the extra fields is necessary. SO THE QUESTION IS: How do I select (number of distinct styles) products, and still keep the records in tact as they should be?
Here is a sample...
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Min(team) as team, min(pict) as pict, min(colors) as colors, min(league) as league, min(product_description) as product_description, min(category) as category, min(subcategory) as subcategory, min(style) as style FROM prods WHERE (style='style1' or style='style2' or style='style3') AND league='leaguex' AND soldout='' GROUP by style ORDER by style
Thanks very much for any help!! I'm sure I'm going about this all wrong.

I have a dimension that has the following members:
Directors
Senior Managers
Managers
Senior Associates
Associates
But they way they need to be displayed includes subtotals. Senior Managers and Managers are placed into Management and Staff is a total of everyone except Directors. They should appear on the report in something like this:
Directors 10
Senior Managers 15
Managers 9
Management 24
Senior Associates 17
Associates 40
Staff 81
Total 91
What is the best way to do this? Right now I am using a matrix because I am also showing headcounts by Period. Is a table a better way to go? Is it something that should be done in my dimension?
I can do the Total part. I am just not sure how to make the subtotals inbetween the other lines.
I have been reading up on how replicating schema changes work, but I must be missing something. When I configured a database for replication, it added a rowguid column to each table. This I understand.
I want to test making a schema change and replicating that change. For example, I tried to add a column to an existing table. When I tried to save the table i get the following error:
"Error validating the default for column rowguid".
"- Unable to modify table. It is invalid to drop the default constraint on the rowguid column that is used by merge replication. The DDL operation failed inside merge DDL replication manipulation. The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted."
So, what am I missing? Do i need to drop the rowguid column, add the new column, and then re-add the rowguid column?
In my ScriptTask, i am checking the file validity. Now if the file is found incorrect, I do not want the DataFlowTask and other to execute. Instead i want the file to be moved to Error and the loop to proceed with the next file. If the file validity is correct, DFT and ExecuteSQL execute. How do i do this?
Some explanation supported by examples would help.

Hi Guys, I came here again to ask something about my application, Is there a way to make 2 columns unique with each other even if they don't have a primary key? If there's a way how? I wanna make a rule so, my application wont replicate its record. Graciaz,Nhoyti
I have no idea but want to learn it how to make random names with sql server... I have a table, called table1, for colums Firstname and Last name I want it to make random names, so much it is possible it can get, in table2 where the colums is named Names
I have a datagrid in my file along with an Update Query.
My Update Query basically adds the numerical values in two columns together when the page is loaded. This means whenever the page is Refreshed the Update query is fired.
This is my Update Query (which is in an Stored Procedure):
UPDATE Rental SET TotalFee = ExtraFee + TotalFee WHERE DaysOverdue >= 0
I have declared my query in the 'Page_Load' part of the coding, because I want the query to run automatically. Not manually by a button.
My main question is that how can I get the query to run only once a day, no matter how many times the page is loaded.
Playing with DTS for converting text data to SQL Server table and sending email messages. Package is to be scheduled hourly.
1. Is there any easy way to force DTS to choose Success or Failure based on a SQL Task? Wish to check contents of a table for new values and branch accordingly in DTS.
2. When new records are brought in I wish to build a custom email message rather than attaching a text file. Any Idea how to build a custom message?
I am attempting to auto scan an error log on a Unix based system and email myself when errors occur. This is an exercise to test scheduling of jobs, bridging between technologies and sending out meaningful messages based on the process via email.
Is there any possible way to make a row delete itself at a certain date and time? I am tring to make an "On_Sale" table and perticular items(rows) must expire at a certain Date and time. I have an idea to delete a row when it expires but it will cause an extra burden on my application. So is it possible to have SQL responsible for deleting a row at a certain time and date?
Also, I have another question: when I asign a PK Identity to a certain column is there a way I can enforce consecutive order of PK values? For example if I delete a row and the PK value was 5 it will reoder the whole table so all PK values are in consecutive order:
hi. i'm trying to make a report in asp that sums up a whole bunch of statistics. the report is quite lengthy and takes about 2 minutes to load. i thought i would solve that problem by making a table to dump the statistics into instead of calculating the statistics every time the report is viewed. this way, the page would just read the table with the statistics already put in it. these statistics would be updated every day or two so i don't need anything up to the minute.however, i have run into a small problem which is actually updating the information in the table. my new table is called OfficeReport and it looks like this:UserID Stat1 Stat2 Stat3 ...... Stat3223 0 0 0 056 0 0 0 072 0 0 0 0this is a query for one of the statistics i am currently using:SELECT DefendantCase.UserID, COUNT(DefendantCase.UserID) AS CountOfUserID FROM DefendantCase LEFT JOIN UserDescription ON DefendantCase.UserID=UserDescription.UserID WHERE UserDescription.Status=1 AND UserDescription.UserType=1GROUP BY DefendantCase.UserIDif i run this query, this is what i get:UserID CountOfUserID54 2160 1052 294 427 22how can i modify this query so its output updates the same UserID column in the OfficeReport table? Thanks!
I have a table to which data is being imported via bcp. When I get this data there are some fields nvarchar that has some decimal, for instance 1098.000000 is always 6 zeros..What I want to achieve is to make the above number only 1098
So what I did was this: LEFT (AMOUNT, LEN(AMOUNT)-7) AS AMOUNT
But i get an error saying invalid lenght parameter passed to the left or substring
The following code is a front end parameter - Quantity but when the user enters '0' it is not returning any rows (there are). Is there something wrong here or to add something?
(Select {?Quantity} CASE "ALL": 1=1 CASE "Negative": ({ACBALMPK.IRQOH#}<0) OR ({ACBALMPK.IEQOH#}<0) CASE "Zero": ({ACBALMPK.IRQOH#}=0) OR ({ACBALMPK.IEQOH#}=0) CASE "Greater than Zero": ({ACBALMPK.IRQOH#}>0;) OR ({ACBALMPK.IEQOH#}>0;))
I need to make a backup of a table so that if I mess it up I can put the data back to where I started...
I am going to insert some new rows and update values in some existing rows. So before I do this and find out I messed it up...how do I make a copy of Table A as Table B?
I would actually like to make a copy to table B, then run my changes into B, make sure all is correct, and then transfer the revised data from B over to table A replacing its data. What approach would be best here to accomplish this?
