In derived fields, I need to multiply numbers from 2 fields. Assume that I need to multiply numbers from field B and field C. Although, B is found by COUNT (field A). So, I do the following: B*AltName of A. It gives me an error. Thank you for any help!
Hello, I have a quick question. I'm currently using MS SQL 2005.
I have a main table which has many fields. I created a view#1 which imports all the rows from the main table but I only select the "City" field, "PurchaseDescription" field and a "Cost" field. Only the city name is unique. There are a total of 50 different city names, and each name can have more than one "PurchaseDescription" each with an associated "Cost". I would like to create a second view#2 with an added field called "Cost2". I want "Cost2" to contain the same value as the "Cost" value. However if the "PurchaseDescription" equals to "USB" then "Cost2" should be assigned the value of "Cost" multiplied by -1. If the "PurchaseDescription" content isn't equal to "USB" then "Cost2" will have the save value as "Cost".
For example,
The view#1 will have the following rows & fields (I had to pad the field with dots just to make the output look viewable on this thread)
I'm trying to find a decent way of multiplying a set of numbers in a column without using a cursor in T-SQL.
There is no 'Product' aggregate function that I'm aware of in SQL 7 or 2000. The workaround I'm currently using is this :
SELECT EXP(SUM(LOG(ColumnName))) FROM tblName
This works fine, except when negative numbers are introduced. The LOG function does not allow negative numbers and therefore returns a domain error and the negative number is eliminated from the aggregate.
I could use a cursor to do the multiplication, however, this is proving too slow for the bulk calculations involved.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, then that would be much appreciated.
what am I doing wrong here? I can multipley * 1.25, but not -1.25. Every google entry I find is how to convert positive to negative numbers... I want to use update to multiply and lower the price by 25% (I used the function a bit to liberally to multiply by 125% and now want to bring the values down to earth)
update production.product set listprice = (listprice * -1.25) select max(listprice) from production.product
select cast( 0.0050000000 as decimal(38,23)) * cast(0.0000010000 as decimal(38,23)) select cast( 0.0050000000 as decimal(28,23)) * cast(0.0000010000 as decimal(28,23)) select cast( 0.01 as decimal(28,15)) * cast(0.0000000001 as decimal(28,15)) select cast( 0.01 as decimal(28,16)) * cast(0.0000000001 as decimal(28,16))
The result was following：
0.0000000--was zero 0.000000005000000000000000000 0.00000000000--was zero 0.0000000000010
I have this case where I need to multiply the value of my dataset and finally deduce one to it. For instance if I have a dataset with three values, 2, 5, 15, I need to end up with a value of 150 (2*5*15). How can I achieve this?
SELECT EmployeeId, PiecemealType,SUM(PiecemealQty) /100 AS TotalTrays, ActivityId FROM SR.dbo.PayTrays WHERE WorkDate > '2012-01-01' AND WorkDate < '2012-12-31' GROUP BY EmployeeId, PiecemealType, ActivityId ORDER BY EmployeeId, PiecemealType
PiecemealType is the type of tray 1= 15 Items per tray 2= 12 Items per tray 3= 8 Items per tray 4= 6 Items per tray
I'm trying to work out a bonus for 1 cent per item worked. The divide by 100 moves the total from cent to dollar and the SUM is adding all weekly values together.I just need to work out how to multiply the the SUM value for trays by the 4 different PiecemealType values. If it was static i could just add *15 to my SUM.
I am looking for a way to get the PRODUCT of all columns and group by M_DOMA, [FROM] - Basically multiply all columns on the row that are not M_DOMA or [FROM].
Need to multiply the following by 12 then divide this by 52.
,COALESCE(CTAX.[NET-AMT],0)+COALESCE(HEAT.[NET-AMT],0)+COALESCE(FURNIT.[NET-AMT],0)+COALESCE(SERVCH.[NET-AMT],0)+COALESCE(SEWER.[NET-AMT],0)+COALESCE(WATER.[NET-AMT],0) as 'weekly rent'Everywhere
Dear Readers, Is it possible to create a query that access multiple sql express databases? Or is it possible to link a table in one database from another?
I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu". can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.

I am using MS SQL 2012. I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it. Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:
I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:
I would like to search a table for a phrase, or for a partial phrase,eg on table product - for name or description, or name + descprition.How does one say select * from product where name + description like%phrase%or contains phraseCurrently I can get where name, or where descriotion like %phrase%,eg, where name like krups, or where description like coffee makerBut if I search for where name like %krups coffee maker% i get noresults. krups is in the name field, coffee maker is in thedescription field.Thanks,-M
Pardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.
In a nutshell, how can I write something like: UPDATE "TABLENAME" SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2 WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)
I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.
I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).
Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.
Hi people My users are having troubles with link to default drillthrough report when reports are exported to excel (they REALLY don't like this behavior ), so I decided set all of them disabled in report model, this work fine, but calculated field in reports has this drillthrough link.
Let me show you the situation. Entity Product has an UnitaryCost field, I set the EnableDrillthrough Property in False so when I export a report with this field, no link is shown.
But if I create in the report a calculated field Round(UnitaryCost) this field has a Drillthrough Link
Is this the standard and expected behavior? or its simply a BUG?
Have I done something wrong in my model? and in this case, How I can correct this?
Hi! I used MS Access database! I need to know what are the replications of MS Access fields in MS SQL Server?! 1) What is TEXT field of MS Access in MS SQL Server?! 2) What is MEMO field of MS Access in MS SQL Server?! 3) How to set AutoNumber in MS SQL Server?! I get confused because my online web based sql admin of my host had many options like varchar... 3) Please tell me the size of the fields too as i will be storing a large amount of data! 4) In MS Access there was field size like...60...! But in MS SQL Server there was 16 written next to the TEXT field! What is it? some Bytes?! Thanks!
So, I want to create a view which will summarise total points given i.e. sum of feature1 -feature5. How do I do this? Do I need a function or is there a built-in function? All I can find is info on aggregate functions... but I want it per row...
Edit: the question is more clear in http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?p=4477661&posted=1#post4477661
OK this question is not really SQL server related but since we will build the database in MS SQL Server (2000) i think this is the proper forum to ask this question.
It's actually a quite simple question i gues, but my experience with databases is very limited (buiding my first serious database actually).
when i have two tables Organization and Samples coming from this organization with the following fields:
Organization:
InstituteID (identification) Name Adress ...
Sample:
SampleID (sample identification) InstituteID (references to the Institute table) SampleDate Location ...
In general is it better to use the sampleID and InstituteID combined as primary key in the second (sample) table (and build an index on the combined key) or to generate a new unique key for each record? And why should i choose either one of these options?
One advantage of the first option is you dont have to generate keys yourself (or use some autonumbering system), however the disadvantage is the key grows bigger and bigger when adding more tables (fraction taken from samples, analysis performed on fractions, Analysis giving results).
