insert into Episodes values (30, 67, '', '', 'Episode 30, blog 67');
insert into BlogAssociations values (3,'',1);
insert into BlogAssociations values (12,'',1);
There is my above sql script, i'm currently using mysql at home to test things but will convert to work in mssql.
I need to get associated BlogID for Certain ChannelID from the BlogAssociations table.
Then using those BlogID's that it finds for let just say ChannelID "1" list off the 3 most recent EpisodeID's from the Episodes Table per each BlogID.
So if ChannelID "1" has four BlogID's associated with it then in the Episodes table list off the recent 3 EpisodeIDs for BlogID "3", then the 3 most recent EpisodeIDs for BlogID "5" and so on and so on.
I have this which kind of does what I want:
Code:
select
e.BlogID, e.EpisodeID, e.other
FROM
episodes e, BlogAssociations ba
WHERE
e.BlogID = ba.BlogID and ba.ChannelID = '1'
ORDER BY
e.EpisodeID DESC;
It returns:
Code:
+--------+-----------+---------------------+
| BlogID | EpisodeID | other |
+--------+-----------+---------------------+
| 12 | 17 | Episode 17, blog 12 |
| 12 | 16 | Episode 16, blog 12 |
| 12 | 15 | Episode 15, blog 12 |
| 12 | 14 | Episode 14, blog 12 |
| 12 | 13 | Episode 13, blog 12 |
| 3 | 4 | Episode 4, blog 3 |
| 3 | 3 | Episode 3, blog 3 |
| 3 | 2 | Episode 2, blog 3 |
| 3 | 1 | Episode 1, blog 3 |
+--------+-----------+---------------------+
But as you can see it lists off 5 of the Episodes for BlogID "12", I only want the most recent 3 as previously stated. It also lists off more than 3 Episodes for BlogID "3". How in the world do I go about doing this?
I'm making this a stored procedure so I can't use php otherwise I wouldn't even be posting
Thanks so much!

My goal is to show the most recent 12 months of data including the current month based on a patients discharge date (relative to the query execution time). There could be many years of data so I want to be sure I am pulling the most recent 12 monthsThis seems to work (on the surface anyway … not quite sure if this is the best logic to use).
DATEDIFF(month,PAT_ENC_HSP_discharged.HOSP_DISCH_TIME,
GEtDate())

I need to get all customer records with the most recent tDate. A customer should never have duplicate tDate records, as only one record per day is allowed per customer, yet there somehow there are duplicates. Given this, I need to get the record with the Max date and Max ID. the ID column is an auto-incrementing Identity column.Below is the code without the Max ID column logic
SELECT tCustID, MAX(tDate) AS tDate--get MAX tDate records
FROM table1
GROUP BY tCustID

I have tried clicking on the 2 rows and grouping it, but nothing seems to appear in the report..

Hello everyone, I'm working on a SQL statement that I "thought" worked fine until I noticed I was getting a duplicate row. Below is the SQL statement from the stored procedure: SELECT DISTINCT number AS 'RteNum', leg_orig AS 'Origin',
leg_dest AS 'Dest', AcEquipment.EquipmentDesc AS 'EquipType',
SUBSTRING(trailer_option, 1, 1) AS 'TrailerOption',
leg_depart_time_local AS 'DeptTime',
leg_arrive_time_local AS 'ArrTime',
dev.fnConvertEffectiveDaysToDaysOfWeek(SUBSTRING(leg_effective_local, 2 ,7)) AS 'EffectiveDays',
TruckEditor.EffectiveDays as 'NewEffectiveDays'
FROM lhif_prod
JOIN AcEquipment ON AcEquipment.EquipmentType = lhif_prod.Equipment_Type
LEFT JOIN dev.TruckEditor ON TruckEditor.Origin = lhif_prod.leg_orig AND TruckEditor.Dest = lhif_prod.leg_dest
AND TruckEditor.RouteNum = lhif_prod.number AND TruckEditor.DeptDate = lhif_prod.leg_depart_date_local
WHERE leg_depart_date_local BETWEEN @DateStart AND @DateEnd
AND Type_Code = 'T' AND leg_orig = @LocID
ORDER BY RteNum, Dest, DeptTime Here is what comes back from this query:ABE00 ABEA ABER CTV5 H 1855 1915 MTWT--- NULLABE01 ABEA ABER CTV5 H 1941 2001 MTWT--- NULLABE02 ABEA ABER CTV5 H 2045 2105 MTWTF-- NULLABE03 ABEA ABER CTV5 H 2059 2119 MTWTF-- NULLABE04 ABEA ABER CTV2.5 H 2245 2305 MTWTF-- NULLABE11 ABEA ABER WALKIN H 2045 2100 MTWTF-- NULLABE11 ABEA ABER WALKIN H 2045 2100 MTWTF-- MT-TF--ABE12 ABEA ABER WALKIN H 2109 2124 MTWTF-- NULLEF038 ABEA EWRHB 53BULK H 0100 0245 -TWTFS- NULLEF085 ABEA EWRHA CTV5 H 1955 2140 MTWT--- NULLEF106 ABEA EWRHB CTV5 H 1901 2046 -----S- NULLEF140 ABEA ABER CTV5 H 0550 0610 M------ NULLEF166 ABEA EWRRA CTV5 H 2230 0010 MTWT--- NULLEF366 ABEA EWRRA CTV5 H 2230 0010 ----F-- NULLEF543 ABEA EWRRA CTV5 H 2200 2345 MTWTF-- NULL The 2 rows in bold are the issue right now. There should only be 1 row (the 2nd one where the last column is not null). I'm not sure why it returns both columns when I'm doing a join on there to add that last column. Can anyone help me out with this? I'm not very strong in SQL, so if I'm overlooking something, I'd appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks.

I have tested the code below to remove duplicate table entries based on the field IntOOS. This code works; however, I want to ensure I am removing the oldest entries and keeping the most recent entry. The field to key on this would be something like Max(ID). What would be the best way to ensure I keep the most recent table entry?

This seems simple enough but for some reason, my brain isn't working.
I have a lookup table:
Table A: basically dates every 30 days
1/1/2014
2/3/2014
3/3/2014
4/3/2014
I have Table b that has records and dates created assocated with each record
I want all records that fall between the 1st 30 days to have an additional column that indicates 30
union
records with additional column indicating 60 days that fall between the 30 and 60 day
union
records with additional column indicating 90days that fall between the 60 and 90 day mark.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Hey guys,
I have created an asp.net page where users can select multiple items and then submit the form. I would like to return related items back. The catch is, I want to only return items that are related to all of the selected items.
I've created a SQL Procedure that puts each of the inputted item's ItemId in to a temp table, I have a second table called RelatedItems which I use as my junction table that has ItemId, and ReleatedItemId, I then have my Item table that has the data I want to get to (I've excluded this because I have no trouble pulling out data once I have an ItemId)
I can pull out all related ItemIds with a simple join, however I don't know where to start when it comes to pulling out only items related to all ItemIds in the @TempTable.
Any help or suggestions would be great.
Thanks,
Matt

I need to do some advanced formatting in the text file, because the data in the text file is bit complex. I have some knowledge of using BCP, BULK INSERT and bit about FORMAT FILES but I want to do some advanced formatting(using IF condition and all) to pull the data from text file.
Can anyone please tell me how can I perform bit advanced formatting using BULK INSERT?

I'm trying to create a stored procedure from a join of two tables. One table holds a list of containers, and the other table holds the history of the contents of those containers. All I want is to retrive the most recent history for each container. For example, the containers table has the container number and name, and the history table has the
volume in the container and the date and time of the measurements. There can be any number of measurements, but I only want the most recent one.
Normally, I would just create a cursor that holds a list of the containers and some blank fields, and then loop through it, retrieving the most recent record one by one, but I don't know how to do that in Transact-SQL. Also, I thought maybe some SQL wizard out there might know of a way to do it with a simple select statement.

If I have a table structure similar to the following, how might I query it to obtain the Transaction ID, Transaction Date, and Customer Name for the most recent transaction per customer only:
TransactionTable:
TransactionID TransactionDate TransactionType CustomerName
1 10/1/07 1 Bob
2 8/30/07 2 Janet
3 9/17/07 1 Mike
4 9/25/07 1 Bob
The following query will return all records in the table other than Janets...not what I want:
SELECT Transaction ID, TransactionDate, CustomerName
FROM TransactionTable
WHERE TransactionType = 1
ORDER BY TransactionDate DESC
The following query will return all records in the table other than Janets again, because DISTINCT will use the combo of TransactionID, TransactionDate, and Customer name for uniqueness...not what I want:
SELECT DISTINCT Transaction ID, TransactionDate, CustomerName
FROM TransactionTable
WHERE TransactionType = 1
ORDER BY TransactionDate DESC
The results set I'm looking for would be the following, where only the most recent entry per customer with TransactionType 1 is returned (i.e. one record for Bob):
TransactionTable:
TransactionID TransactionDate CustomerName
1 10/1/07 Bob
3 9/17/07 Mike
I believe I need an appropriate subquery to yield the results I desire, but can't sort out what it is? I do not want to execute multiple queries but subqueries are fine. Unfortunately there's probably an easy answer that my brain is not currently generating. Any help would be appreciated.
Note, this is not a real table, but a sample to illustrate the concept for the query I need.
Thanks.

Let's say I have a table of data as per the below..
I'm trying to extract only the green highlighted items..
The rules applied are: Only the latest data concerning all cases, and only 1 line (the latest) per case.
As you can see in the image, I don't want the 2nd,3rd, and 4th record extracted cause they are all superseded by more recent records (identified as they are further in the table).
I've considered using either Distinct or Having? but can't get that to work.. If I could use Distinct but then ensure it's the latest record in the table that would be perfect.

The "Last" function in the query below (line 4 & 5) is not exactly what I'm after. The last function finds the last record in that table, but i need to find the most recent record in the table according to a date field.
Code:
SELECT
tblinmate.statusid,
tblinmate.activedate,
Last(tblclassificationhistory.classificationid) AS LastOfclassificationID,
Last(tblsquadhistory.squadid) AS LastOfsquadID,
tblperson.firstname,
tblperson.middlename,
tblperson.lastname,
[Code] ....
The query below finds the most recent record in a table according to a date field, my problem is i dont know how to integrate this Query into the above to replace the "Last" function
Code:
SELECT a.inmateID,
a.classificationID,
b.max_date
FROM (
SELECT tblClassificationHistory.inmateID,
tblClassificationHistory.classificationID,

Hello,I am creating a simple blog system using SQL 2005.I have a Blog table:[BlogId] > PostId (PK), BlogTitle, ...And a Posts table[Posts] > PostId (PK), BlogId (FK), PostContent, PostLabels, ...PostLabels would have the following format:Label1,Label2,Label3, etc ...I will need to perform 3 actions:1. Get all posts in blog2. Get all labels in a post3. Get all unique existing labels in all posts in a blog and make a list.I am not sure if my approach of using a simple labels column in my Posts table is a good idea.So my other idea would be to add two more tables:[BlogLabels] > BlogLabelId (PK), BlogId (FK), LabelName ...[LabelsInPosts] > BlogLabelId (PK), PostId (PK)So my idea is:1. When creating a post one of the parameters would be a comma separating string with all labels for the post. Inside SQL Procedure I will need to loop through each label and check if it exists in BlogLabels. If not then I added it. For each label I add a records in LabelsInPosts. How to create this loop? Am I thinking this right?2. To get a list of all labels in a blog I would need to go to BlogLabels and get all labels which are related with posts in LabelsInPosts. Those posts must be only the ones that are related with my given BlogId. Grrr, this is getting really confusing for me. Is this possible to to? How?Please, give me some advice about all this.Thanks,Miguel

I have the following tables in my DB
Employee table - This table has EmployeeID, Name, DOB.
EmployeeDesignation table - 1 Employee can have many designations with each having an effective date. There is no flag to indicate which among multiples is the current entry. You can only figure it out by the newest/oldest EffectiveDate. I want to get the most recent and the oldest for each employee.
EmployeeSalaryHistory table - Structure/Design is similar to EmployeeDesignation table. I want to get the starting salary and current salary for each employee.
I want my query to output me the following fields...
EmployeeID
EmployeeName
EmployeeDOB
EmployeeStartingDesignation
EmployeeCurrentDesignation
EmployeeStartingSalary
EmployeeCurrentSalary
Here is a piece of code to generate sample data sets
DECLARE @Employee TABLE (EmployeeID INT, EmployeeName VARCHAR (100), EmployeeDOB DATE)
INSERT @Employee VALUES (101, 'James Bond', '07/07/1945'), (102, 'Tanned Tarzan', '12/13/1955'), (103, 'Dracula Transylvanian', '10/22/1967')
DECLARE @EmployeeDesignation TABLE (EmployeeID INT, Designation VARCHAR (100), EffectiveDate DATE)
INSERT @EmployeeDesignation VALUES (101, 'Bond Intern', '01/01/1970'), (101, 'Bond Trainee', '01/01/1975'), (101, 'Bond...James Bond', '01/01/1985')
[Code] ....
Currently, I have a query to get this done which looks as below. Since I have more than 8K employees with each having multiple Designation and Salary entries, my query is taking forever.
selecte.EmployeeID, e.EmployeeName, e.EmployeeDOB,
(select top 1 Designation from @EmployeeDesignation ed where ed.EmployeeID = e.EmployeeID Order By EffectiveDate) EmployeeStartingDesignation,
(select top 1 Designation from @EmployeeDesignation ed where ed.EmployeeID = e.EmployeeID Order By EffectiveDate Desc) EmployeeCurrentDesignation,
[Code] ....

I am querying a table log file in an attempt to get the most recent status of an item. The items can have a variety of different statuses:
(A = Active, R = Repeat, L = liquidation......)
Here is a sample of the data I am trying to report off of:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[item_status](
[item_number] [varchar](20) NULL,
[sku] [varchar](100) NULL,
[Field_Name] [varchar](50) NULL,
[Old_Value] [varchar](150) NULL,
[New_Value] [varchar](150) NULL,
[Change_Date] [smalldatetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
[code]...
I have tried join to the same table - but I am still unable to get it to work.

Hello-I'm fairly new to writing SQL statements and would greatly appreciatesome help on this one.I'm working on a project for a non-profit that I volunteer for. Partof the database tracks membership using tables like this:PersonInfo-------------------PersonID (primary key)FirstNameLastNameetc..PeopleMemberships-------------------PPLMembershipIP (primary key)PersonIDMembershipTypeIDFeePaidMembershipTypes--------------------MembershipTypeID (primary key)MembershipYearStandardFeeMembershipDescription (varchar)Just because a person is in PersonInfo, doesn't mean they have anythingin PeopleMemberships (they can be in the databse for other reasons andnot have or have ever had a membership).Membership fees vary by year and type of membership and they want toretain a history of a person's memberships.What I'm looking to do here is write a query (a view in SQL Server)that will return the following InfoPersonID, MostRecentMembershipYear, FeePaidForThatMembership,DescriptionOfThatMembershipI'm thinking that I'd use max(MembershipYear), but that requires groupby for the other columns, so I'm getting all of the people'smemberships returned.I'm pretty sure this can be best done with a subquery, but I'm not surehow.Can someone please point me in the right direction or provide a samplethat I can learn from?Kindly,Ken

The following sql works great when the field for my main blog message is type nvarchar but doesn't work for text which I need to convert to.
select
a.id, b.textField
count(b.a_id) as myCount
from a left join b on a.id = b.a_id
group by a.id, b.textField
What other methods could i use to get "myCount" within one sql statement?
Thanks in advance, Jeff

Hi,
I have a simple blog with a posts and replies table.
on the posts summary page i want to count the number of replies related to each post.
I thought i could store all the posts in a table variable and then loop through the table variable to count the number of replies that relate to the current post.
It doesnt seem as easy as i expected and i think i am making it more complicated for myself.
Can someone point me in the right direction please ?

I've never worked with a column that's defined as a binary data type. (In the past if ever we had to include a photo we stored a link to the JPG/BMP/PNG/whatever into a column, but never actually inserted or updated a column with binary data.But now I've got to do that. So how do you put data into a column defined as BINARY(4096)?

Hi. I am currently building a blog application, and I need some advice... I have the post title, post date, post by, etc stored in a database table, however I was wondering whether I should store the actual post content in the database as well or in a text file. For example, if the posts get really long would it slow down database performance or would there not be much of a difference? Furthermore, if I wanted to keep the posts private, a text file would not be ideal as it can be accessed easily by surfers... What do you recommend?Thanks a lot
