Hello All,Is there a way to run sql select statements with column numbers inplace of column names in SQLServer.Current SQL ==> select AddressId,Name,City from AddressIs this possible ==> select 1,2,5 from AddressThanks in Advance,-Sandeep
I have a table with number and varchar columns. The last insert statement has 1 inserted.
The  select statement should retrieve   Â
a         b                                                          1         1
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[test1]( Â [a] [int] NULL, Â [b] [varchar](10) NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] Â insert into test1 values (1,'a') Â insert into test1 values (2,'b') Â insert into test1 values (4,'d') Â insert into test1 values (12,'x') Â insert into test1 values (15,NULL) Â insert into test1 values (1,1)
I have such a problem. Need to add additional column to my query. The column should consist of set of fixed number (same as number of query rows) values (text). At start thought it's simple but now Im lost. Is there any chance to do it. Apreciate any help. I need to tell that I have only access to select on this database so no use of operation on tables.
When importing data into MS SQL Server 2000 from a MyODBC (v3.51) datasource using Data Transformation Services, special characters like öäüéàèare not imported correctly. However, when the MyODBC data source is used inany other program like Access, Excel etc. it works fine.Does anyone have any experience with this? Any hint to solve this problemwould be very much appreciated!Matthias Haldimann
declare @NumberToCompareTo int set @NumberToCompareTo = 8 declare @table table ( number int ) insert into @table select 4
[Code] ....
The query selects 4 and 5 of course. Now what I'm looking for is to retrieve the number less or equal to @NumberToCompareTo, I mean the most immediate less number than the parameter. So in this case 5
The select command below will output one patient’s information in 1 row:
Patient id Last name First name Address 1 OP Coverage Plan 1 OP Policy # 1 OP Coverage Plan 2
[code]...
This works great if there is at least one OP coverage.  There are 3 tables in which to get information which are the patient table, the coverage table, and the coverage history table.  The coverage table links to the patient table via pat_id and it tells me the patient's coverage plan and in which priority to bill.  The coverage history table links to the patient and coverage table via patient id and coverage plan and it gives me the effective date. Â
select src.pat_id, lname, fname, addr1, max(case when rn = 1 then src.coverage_plan_ end) as OP_Coverage1, max(case when rn = 1 then src.policy_id end) as OP_Policy1,
I have a table in which a non-primary key column has a unique index on it. If I am inserting a record into this table with a duplicate column value for the indexed column, then what will be the error number of the error in above scenario? OR How could I find this out?
I have a problem where I essentially want to find all the B_ID numbers that do not have any ones or twos next to them in the whole table (see table below).
I come up with this query, however it is wrong, because certain B_ID do not have a 1 or 2 on some lines, but then they do on others :(.
SELECT B_ID FROM NUMBER WHERE NUM != 1 AND NUM != 2; SELECT * FROM NUMBER;
Example, suppose you have these 2 tables(NOTE: My example is totally different, but I'm simply trying to setupthe a simpler version, so excuse the bad design; not the point here)CarsSold {CarsSoldID int (primary key)MonthID intDealershipID intNumberCarsSold int}Dealership {DealershipID int, (primary key)SalesTax decimal}so you may have many delearships selling cars the same month, and youwanted a report to sum up totals of all dealerships per month.select cs.MonthID,sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) as 'TotalCarsSoldInMonth',sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) * d.SalesTax as 'TotalRevenue'from CarsSold csjoin Dealership d on d.DealershipID = cs.DealershipIDgroup by cs.MonthIDMy question is, is there a way to achieve something like this:select cs.MonthID,sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) as 'TotalCarsSoldInMonth',TotalCarsSoldInMonth * d.SalesTax as 'TotalRevenue'from CarsSold csjoin Dealership d on d.DealershipID = cs.DealershipIDgroup by cs.MonthIDNotice the only difference is the 3rd column in the select. Myparticular query is performing some crazy math and the only way I knowof how to get it to work is to copy and past the logic which isgetting out way out of hand...Thanks,Dave
I have a fairly basic query I want to make but I'm struggling on figuring out how to do it. Let's say I have some fields (e.g. Value1, Value2, Value3, etc). I simply want to do a Select statement that returns the highest value among those fields for every row in my db.
At first I thought of the built in Max function until I realized that is for within a column only.
Hopefully you can assist this pleb (me) with some (hopefully) basic scripting.
I have a table which has bucket loads of rows in it (funnily enough) Field1 & Field2 Field1 is repeated numerous times (but also has differing values) through the table Field2 is a numeric value which is assigned to the Field1
What I need to do is pull back all the unique Field1's but only those with the highest value in Field2
Hi all!I am looking for a way to select only numbers OR only the first word from a field.EG:1 cartoon => 12 cartoons => 2200 cartoons => 2007 Allo => 71 Poil 2 Pirates 3 Bizounes => 125Kilos2 => 25Where the values after the => is what I want as a result.Anybody knows how to do that ?
A table has a column of int type. I need to select a fixed number of rows for each value. For example, if data in that column (c) are 5, 6, 7, and the number I want to select is 2, then I need 2 rows from c=5, 2 from c=6, and 2 from c=7. How to write that query? Any idea?
Hi I'm trying to convert and format integer values in a SQL Server select statement to a string representation of the number formated with ,'s (1000000 becomes 1,000,000 for example). I've been looking at CAST and CONVERT and think the answers there somewhere. I just don'tseem to be able to work it out. Anyone out there able to help me please? Thanks,Keith.
I am working on a multi-page datagrid that pulls data from a database. The issue I am running into is the SQL select query. What I have is a table to 55 items. What I need to do is grab the first 35 of those items and bind the resulting DataReader to the grid, print the page, then grab the remaining 20 items, bind to the grid and print the page.
I can use "SELECT TOP 35 FROM Table" to get the first 35 items, but I don't know how to get the remaining 20 items. Is there a way to say something like "SELECT TOP 20 FROM Table" but specify only the rows that begin after row 35?
I tried doing this with an ArrayList but couldn't bind it to the DataGrid.
I'm trying to select records that occur more than once. I'm trying to base this on the email column. So basically I want the query to look something like this:
select * from table where emailaddress count > 1
Can someone provide me with the correct syntax? :)
I have a table with entries tied to a membership database. The problemis that I want to select a limit of sixteen entries per member, perday, where some members have 16+ entries per day.I have this so far ( which I've simplified for this post)SELECT dbo.members.firstname, dbo.members.lastname,dbo.entries.gameDayFROM dbo.members INNER JOINdbo.entries ON dbo.members.memberID =dbo.entries.memberIDIf it's day 5, each member should have 80 total.How can I change this to select only 16 entries for each member, makingsure it's 16 per day based on dbo.entries.gameDay?Thanks for your help.
Dear GroupI wonder whether you can give me a syntax example for a SQL Statement.Lets assume I've a table containing three columns ContactID (Primary Key),Firstname and Lastname.I would like to write a stored procedure which returns me the first tenrecords and increments an outside variable each time it runs.E.g If I run it the first time I pass the variable as 0 and it will returnme the first ten records and returns the variable value 1.When run a second time, I will pass the variable as 1 and it will return merecords 11-20 and sets the variable to 2 and so on...The difficult thing is how to tell to return me records 11-20. I can't usethe ContactID as someone might have deleted a row and e.g. ContactID 18 ismissing. In this case I only would get 9 rows returned. It always should beten.Thanks very much for your time and efforts!Kind Regards,Martin"There are 10 types of people in this world: Those that understand binaryarithmetic, and those that don't."
