Number Of Occurences

May 13, 2008

Hi,

I'm hitting my head against the wall because of a really small issue...

Basically, let's assume I have the following:

BOOK_ID
========
1
2
2

in a table BOOK. I am trying to code a query that would return the book_id that appears the most in the book table.

Anyone knows how to do this?

The closest i've got is this:

select max(count(book_id)) from intermeeting group by book_id;

But this only returns the number of occurences of the record. What i'm interested in, is the ID of the record that occurs that many times...

Thanks for your help

To Find The Number Of Occurences Of A Particular Character In A String

Aug 8, 2001

Hi all,

@str varchar(500)

select @str = 'abcd,efgh,i,jklmn,opsqrtuv'

For the above string, which string function can be used to find the number of occurences of a particular character, for example, ','? For this example, the answer should be 4. Is there any built-in function in SQL to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Problem Getting 5 Most Common Occurences

Feb 14, 2008

I need to get the 5 most common occurences from a table. Not really sure of the SQL statement I would use to do that. Would someone be kind enough to throw out a select statement that would do this? psuedo code would be fine, I just need to know the jest of how to do it. I originally thought Select Top 5 would work, but then I actually started thinking and realized it wasnt it. So now im stuck. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve

EDIT: I should add that this will be coming from a view with multiple tables..thanks

Counting Numbers Of Occurences Of Null

Sep 20, 2005

Hi All,

I have a table with (lets say) 2 fields: ACTIONED_TO & COMMENTS

There will be multiple rows with the same ACTIONED_TO value some of the COMMENTS will be null

eg:

ACTIONED_TO,COMMENTS
"Matt","This is a comment"
"Dave","This is a comment too"
"Matt",

what I'm looking for my query to return is:

ACTIONED_TO, NO COMMENTS, COMMENTS
MATT, 1,1
Dave,1,0

Do I need a CROSSTAB Query, How is it implemented?

Regards

Matt A

Limitations In Term Of Number Of Tasks And Number Of Columns

Jun 5, 2007

Hi,

I am currently designing a SSIS package to integrate data into a data warehouse fact table. This fact table has about 70 columns among which 17 are foreign keys for dimension tables.

To insert data in that table, I have to make several transformations and lookups. Given the fact that the lookups I have to make are a little complicated, I have about 70 tasks in my Data Flow.
I know it's a lot, but I can't find a way to make it simpler. It seems I really need all these tasks.

Now, the problem is that every new action I try to make on the package takes a lot of time. At design time, everything is very slow. My processor is eavily loaded each time I change a single setting in one of the tasks, and executing the package in debug mode takes for ages. If I take a look at the size of my package file on disk, it's more than 3MB.

Hence my question : Are there any limitations in terms of number of columns or number of tasks that can be processed within a Data Flow ?

If not, then do you have any idea why it's so slow ?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Increase Number By 1

Sep 2, 2004

Hello all,
I have, what i think, is a unique problem that i'm hoping some of you can help me on.

I need to create a record number that is incremented by 1 whenever someone adds a new record to the database. For example, records numbering 1,2,3 are in the database. When the users adds a new record, SQL takes the last recordno, 3 in this case, and adds 1 to it thus producing 4.

Also, i need to have the ability to replace deleted record numbers with new ones. Using the example above, say a user deletes record number 2. Whenever someone adds a new record, sql would see the missing number and assign the new record that number.

I hope i'm making sense here. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Any articles on the web that someone could point me to?

Thanks.
Richard M.

Odd @@error Number

I have a few stored procedures that returns @@error. If I understand correctly, @@error should be set to 0 if there is no error. However, my procedures are returning 1 and 2 yet working just fine as far as I can tell. There is not exception popping up in SQL Profiler either. What does this mean, and is it something I should be concerned about?
