Minus And Intersect Functionality
Jul 20, 2005
Hi,
I've used the minus functionality which is available in Oracle and
i would like to use it in SQL server, but i don't know how to. The
folllowing is how it works in Oracle
Select symbols from symbol_table
minus
select tsymbols from trade
It returns a list of all the symbols from symbol_table which are not
present in trade.
Similarly, the intersect will return only those which are common to
both.
I was wondering if someone throw some light on this problem for me.
Thanks in advance,
Sumanth

Dose SQL 2000 support the intersect function? If so....could someone show me an example. If not...how do you work around the problem.
Thanks,

I want to be able to intersect many tables. I am building my query from vb code in asp .net based on key fields entered in a search engine box.my query should look like this, which will return the rows that will have the values var, var_2, var_3 in any columns. All three must be in a row for it to be a hit. I cant get this to work in ms sql. I don't know if it supports this feature.select * from t where column1 Like '%var%' or column2 like '%var%' or column3 like '%var%'intersect select * from t where column1 Like '%var_2%' or column2 like '%var_2%' or column3 like '%var_2%'intersectselect * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%' I also googled around and found a where exists... But cant seem to figure out how to do multiple tables:select * from t where exists (select * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%') i would like to add multiple conditions to the where exists table. Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong.

I have: 4 tables and 1 table variable.
CCenters (ID, Name)
Campaigns (ID, Name)
Rel (ID, CCenterID, CampaignID) - [many to many]
and @SCampaigns (ID, CampaignID) - represents the selected campaigns by the user
performing the commands below I would get the centers associated with the campaigns selected.SELECT CCenterID
FROM Rel
INNER JOIN @Campaigns ON @SCampaigns.CampaignID = Rel.CampaignID
But what I really want are the common centers to the selected campaigns.
Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm trying to run the following script but it keeps giving me errors (Syntax near the work INTERSECT).
SELECT [stuff], [things], [others], [everyone]
FROM [TABLE] JOIN (
(SELECT [stuff]
FROM [TABLE]
WHERE [item] = '1' )
INTERSECT
(SELECT [stuff]
FROM [TABLE]
WHERE [item2] = '1' )
) temp ON temp.[stuff] = [stuff]
NOTE: If I replace the word INTERSECT with UNION it works fine, just that I'm wanting an intersect not a union!!
Can anyone help me out with this?

I am trying to update all records in #newtable that exist in #mastertable. I have been using Intersect to show me the duplicate records, but now I need to update a field in #newtable This was my syntax to show the records that exist in both tables, how can I change this to an update statement? The field in #newtable I want to update is [alreadyexists] and I want to update it with a yes value
So update #newtable set [alreadyexists] = 'yes'
select uno, mucha, pablo, company from #Newtable
intersect
select uno, mucha, pablo, company from #mastertable

These two T-SQL statements return the same results.
If Microsoft deemed it necessary to add the EXCEPT command, then what are its advantages over an INNER JOIN
-- LIST ONLY PRODUCTS THAT ARE ON A WORK ORDER
USE AdventureWorks2008R2;
GO
SELECT ProductID
FROM Production.Product
INTERSECT
SELECT ProductID
FROM Production.WorkOrder ;
USE AdventureWorks2008R2;
GO
SELECT DISTINCT Production.WorkOrder.ProductID
FROM Production.Product
INNER JOIN Production.WorkOrder ON Production.WorkOrder.ProductID = Production.Product.ProductID

Hi,I'm coming back to Sql Server after 4 years away, using other RDBMS,and there's a few things I'm struggling to remember how to do (if Icould do them in the first place...)Main amongst those is EXCEPT syntax.In DB2, if I have two sets of data and I want to exclude the second setfrom the first, I can do:SELECT col1, col2, col3, ... colNFROM table1EXCEPTSELECT col1, col2, col3, ... colNFROM table2;But SQL Server balks at this. I've had a quick look in the T-SQL helpfor EXCEPT, but I didn't find that particularly enlightening. Anypointers as to how I should be doing this?ThanksJames

Hi people!!!
First I'll introduce my situation.
I have the folowing tables:
1.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1001
2.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1002
Both servers run SQL Server 2000 Edition.
What i need to perform is a check that compares the data stored in both tables in order to know if there is any difference between them. Of course, the structure of both tables are the same.
I use the SP sp_addlinkedserver to link the servers, but the problem is that EXCEPT and INTERSECT didn't work.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks,
Bob
P.S.: Please!!!!!!!!!

If I was asked "How many days passed" the query is (below) and the answer is 33. But, then the curve ball is "can you subtract out the weekends?" and I said....well, I said I think so, but not sure how. So far, I have had no luck. Any advise?
SELECT
DATEDIFF ( dd , dbo.table_case.creation_time , dbo.table_close_case.close_date ) AS no_of_days,
dbo.table_case.id_number,
dbo.table_case.creation_time CreateTime,
dbo.table_close_case.close_date CloseDate

WHERE
dbo.table_close_case.last_close2case=dbo.table_case.objid AND

I have a table (let's call it MyTable) that consists of four fields:
Id, Source, FirstField, and
SecondField, where Source only takes one of two values:
Source1 and Source2.
The records in this table look as follows:
Id
Source
FirstField
Secondfield
1
Source1
Product 3 name
Product 3 description
[code]...
I need to return, using 3 different T-SQL queries:
1) Products that exist only in Source2 (in red above)
2) Products that exist only in Source1 (in green above)
3) Products that exist both in Source1 and Source2 (in black above)
For 1) so far I've been doing something along the lines of SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source1 AND FirstField NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT (FirstField) FROM MyTable WHERE Source=Source2)
I have read about INTERSECT and EXCEPT, but I am a little unclear if they could be applied in this case out of the box.

Hi I was hoping you could help,
I have a query that pulls back a customers account statement, however the credits are coming back as positives as well, So I am getting wrong figures, how can I correct the code below so that VAT, Goods Value and Total are negative if the data in column "trans reference" begins with a C for example C123456789 a invoice would be 123456789
Thanks
Code Snippet
SELECT
SLCUSA as [Compny Number],
SLCUSB as [Customer Suffix],
SLDELN as [Deliber To Number],
SLCNAM as [Customer Name],
SLDATE as Date,
SLTREF as [Trans Reference],
SLGDSV as [Goods Value],
SLVATV as [VAT],
SLTOTV as Total

This provides a good example for my situation. In this example, you will see a Movie dimension with four attributes; Genre, Language, Movie, and Theme. I have a similar setup except mine is Top Level Hierarchy>Categories>Values which are all under the one hierarchy.
My Question: I have the dimension setup as a multi-value parameter in one of my reports. When I filter on a value in Genre and in Language, it provides all values from that genre and all values from that language. I really only want the values that include both.
Genre - Western: Movie1, Movie2, Movie3
Language - English: Movie2, Movie4, Movie5
If I filter on Western and English, I get Movie1-5 when all I really want is Movie2 only. Is there any way to have this do an Intersect within the same dimension or do I have to build each one out into its own dimension?

I have two tables CarType & Cars. Table CarType has a column CarTypeId which is the primary key (int, identity). Table Cars includes a column CarTypeId (int) which is a foreign key into the CarType table.Now I am trying to build a list of all those CarTypeId entries (from the CarType table) for which there are no Cars (i.e. there is no corresponding entry in the Cars table).I read that there is an SQL "MINUS" keyword that you can use like this:
SELECT CarTypeId FROM CarTypeMINUSSELECT CarTypeId FROM Cars..So if CarType contains records with the keys {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and Cars contains records with the foreign keys {2, 4} (using set notation), your result should be the set {1, 3, 5}. (Note: I have tried alternate versions of this where I selected the DISTINCT CarTypeId entries from Cars, and where I sorted them; results same in both cases).I tried it in SQL Server 2005 Express. The result is just {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
Is the MINUS capability supported by SQL Server? I know that there are all sorts of different SQL dialects & implementations and that SQL has evolved & transmutated over the years; perhaps they opted to leave this out of SQL Server..
Here's a reference to the website where I initially found out about MINUS: [URL] ....

I have a test query that i have ordered by the expected result order.
select t from (
select cast('1' as nvarchar(20)) as t
union all select '1---qa'
union all select '1q'
union all select '1q1'
union all select '1qz'
[Code] ....
and the question is... why is minus character (at 3rd line in '1---qa' string) ignored by "order by" clause? That row is put after '1q1' and not after '1'.
When you replace '-' with '+' or any other special char it works as expected but not with '-'. It is just ignored no matter if there is one or more of them.
Don't mind local chars like čž, they are for testing purposes with collate (thus commented) and with bin collation that is not doing proper sorting but minus order is ok in that case.
Tested on SQL 2008 R2 and SQL express 2012, database collation is 'Croatian_CI_AS'.
