Problem With Count, Group By And Ntext
Apr 7, 2006
I have one SELECT statement that needs to return one ntext field from
one table and count something from other table, problem is that all
fileds that are not in count have to be in group by and ntext can't be
in group by... i hope you understend what i want to say here :), so is
there any solution to this problem or what is the best workaraund you
would use?
example:
TABLE projects
project_id int
project_title nvarchar(50)
project_description ntext
TABLE users
user_id int
project_id int
SELECT projects.project_id, projects.project_title,
projects.project_description, count(users.*) AS number_od_users
FROM projects LEFT JOIN users ON projects.project_id=users.project_id
GROUP BY projects.project_id, projects.project_title,
projects.project_description;
this select is something that would work for me...if it wasn't for that
tiny problem with ntext field

Can the above three queries be combined into one and still be fast, if so how?What i am trying to go is an item count, by group, similar to ones Inbox in Outlook.

I am having some difficulty writing a relatively basic query. The objective is to retrieve the new stories (headlines) for the past 3 days from the database. Since each headline can be assigned multiple categories (topics) the query returns a row for every headline assignment. I can't use the 'Group By' expression because one of the columns is nText.
So basically if there is an article written yesterday, "I Love Cats" that gets assigned both topics 'CATS' and 'PETS' I only it returned with the first topic assigned... 'CATS'. Here is a little image of the three tables being called:
http://64.225.154.232/temp_dbDiagram.gif
I don't think that this query is too difficult, but I'm just getting my feet wet with writing queries that are more than select * from whatever. Any insight or recommendations are greatly appreciated.
SELECT headline.HEADLINE_ID, headline.HEADLINE_TITLE, headline.HEADLINE_DATE, headline.HEADLINE_THUMBNAIL,
topic.TOPIC_NAME, topic.TOPIC_URL
FROM tbl_CCF_Headlines headline INNER JOIN
tbl_CCF_Headlines_Topics ON headline.HEADLINE_ID = tbl_CCF_Headlines_Topics.HEADLINE_ID INNER JOIN
tbl_CCF_Topics topic ON tbl_CCF_Headlines_Topics.TOPIC_ID = topic.TOPIC_ID
WHERE (headline.HEADLINE_DATE IN
(SELECT TOP 3 HEADLINE_DATE
FROM tbl_CCF_HEADLINES
GROUP BY HEADLINE_DATE
ORDER BY HEADLINE_DATE DESC))
ORDER BY headline.HEADLINE_DATE DESC

I'm new to MSSQL 2005 and want to get a summary of a log table. I want to count all the rows for each date based on a DATETIME field called 'post_date' that holds the date and time of each record's creation.
this is the best I can come up with:
Code:
SELECT
DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11)) AS post_date, COUNT(DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11))) AS total_posts
FROM log_directory_contacts
GROUP BY post_date
The results show each date but the count column ('total_posts') returns '1' for every row even when I know their are more than 1 record on that date.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

I am running this query to an sql server 2000 database from my aspcode:"select * from MyTable whereMySqlServerRemoveStressFunction(MyNtextColumn) = '" &MyAdoRemoveStressFunction(MyString) & "'"The problem is that the replace function doesn't work with the ntextdatatype (so as to replace the stresses with an empty string). I hadto implement the MySqlServerRemoveStressFunction, i.e. a function thattakes a column name as a parameter and returns the text contained inthis column having replaced some letters of the text (the letters withstress). Unfortunately, I could not do that because user-definedfunctions cannot return a value of ntext.So I have the following idea:"select * from MyTable whereCheckIfTheyAreEqualIngoringTheStesses(MyNtextColum n, '" & MyString &"')"How can I implement the CheckIfTheyAreEqualIngoringTheStessesfunction? (I don't know how to combine these functions to do what Iwant: TEXTPTR, UPDATETEXT, WRITETEXT, READTEXT)

TO all SQL Gurus,
The following statement returns let say 4 records -
SELECT title, price FROM table GROUP BY title
what is the correct syntax for the statement to return the count of 4 ?
if I put ->
SELECT count (*) FROM table GROUP BY title
it'll return 1.
Thanks,

I want to join two tables and count the rows on the second table as something is grouped by the first. To be more clear. I have vendors and open tracking numbers for orders they have shipped. I want to list the vendor information and to group by the vendor. However I also want to count how many open orders that vendor has - which is on a different table. I have this so far:
SELECT `companyName`
, `emailAddress`
, `ccAddress`
, `dailyMessages`
, (SELECT count(*) FROM `tracking` WHERE `pkgStatus`!='4') AS 'openTracking'
FROM `vendor`
LEFT OUTER JOIN `tracking`
ON `vendor`.`id` = `tracking`.`vendorID`
WHERE (SELECT count(*) FROM `tracking` WHERE `pkgStatus`!='4') > 0
GROUP BY `vendor`.`id`
The problem is that this code results in this table. Where openTracking is always equal to the total count, not distinct to that vendor's ID

Hello
I'm putting together a football database and want to show how many games a player played in a season.
SELECT COUNT (PlayerFixture.FixtureID) FROM PlayerFixture WHERE PlayerFixture.PlayerID = '::PlayerID::' GROUP BY Season
However if a player doesn't play any games in a particular season the COUNT function ignores it and just returns values in seasons he has played. Is there any way i can get the COUNT function to return a "0" or "-" if a player didn't play any games that season?
Cheers

Can this be used to prevent the repetition of records displayed in a page?
Code Snippet
SELECT T_ProgramGuests, GuestName
FROM T_ProgramGuests
GROUP BY ProgramID, GuestName
HAVING (COUNT(*) > 1)
I'm trying to prevent names being repeated. I only want the name to show once followed by the next name and so on. But only once.

I would like to select data from a database using 'Select * " based on a value in a row (same column)being unique.
By that I mean that that data must not repeat again. Idealy I would like to set the number my self so rather then unique I could say
select the rows from the database only if the uniquevalue does not repeat more then x number of times.
eg
Value A
Value B
Value C
Value B
Value B
Value C
So if I wanted to set the uniquness to 1 then only row with Value A would be collected.
If I set the uniquenss to =<2 then I would get data from rows with value A and C so
3 rows returned.
I have this so far
SELECT *
FROM SingleS.mdb
GROUP BY Uniquevalue
HAVING count(*) = 1

Probably has been solved a million times, but here it is anyway:
Say I have a table with follwoing rows:
Site Appointment Maintenance Date
NY 13 10-25-2007
CA 14 10-29-2007
NY 18 10-25-2007
NJ NULL 10-26-2007
I need to perform a simple count showing the total (Maintenance Dates) for the next 2 days. Additionally, if a site is listed, but it doesn't have any (Maintenance Dates) for the next 2 days, it must be part of the report with the total as zero.
I can do
SELECT Site, COUNT(*)
FROM dbo.MyTable
GROUP BY Site
-- for brevity, assume GETDATE() is set to 12:00 AM, today
WHERE [Maintenance Date] >= GETDATE() AND [Maintenance Date] < DATEADD(dd, 2, GETDATE())
but this only lists NJ and NY, because they both have counts over the next days. How do I get CA in the list?
Thanks.

Count If HomeScore IS NULL

Hi, I am trying to get the first row of what might be a group of any size of rows within an id that may contain a specific field. For eg
Row A = NoteID 1, FK_JobID 1, UnRead
Row B = NoteID 2, FK_JobID 1, UnRead
Row C = NoteID 3, FK_JobID 1, UnRead
I need the sql to return to just one Job (row) even though the job as 3 UnRead fields. But its returning 3 because its only doing what I'm asking. What I need it to do is just get the one Job (row) where any of the notes = UnRead.
I tried using Top 1, but that will only ever return one row and since I need it to return more than one job (row) it won't work.
Heres my attempt
DECLARE @UserID INT
SET @UserID = 4
SELECT User_Notes.BeenRead, Master_Jobs.By_Who, Master_Jobs.Next_Action, Master_Jobs.Due_Time, Master_Jobs.Due_Date, Master_Jobs.Contact,
Master_Jobs.Job_Title, Master_Jobs.JobID
FROM User_Notes INNER JOIN
Note ON User_Notes.FK_UN_NoteID = Note.NoteID INNER JOIN
Master_Jobs ON Note.FK_JobID = Master_Jobs.JobID
WHERE Note.FK_UserID = User_Notes.FK_UN_UserID AND
BeenRead = 'UnRead'

ok, so i have this table "SOLD_PRODUCTS" with this columns:
idProduct (int), quantitySold (int)
so i want to know how many products i have sold.
i have this query
Code:
SELECT idProduct, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total
FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS
GROUP BY idProduct
and get this
74 5
75 2
79 1
etc etc etc
this works correctly, but it doesnt counts the quantity sold, so i changed the query to
Code:
SELECT idProduct, quantitySold, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total
FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS
GROUP BY idProduct
but it crashes, mssql says i must add quantitySold to the group by clause.
but if i put the query
Code:
SELECT idProduct, quantitySold, COUNT(idProduct) AS Total
FROM SOLD_PRODUCTS
GROUP BY idProduct,quantitySold
i dont get the expected data, the idProducts appear more than once, they are no longer grouped by, the results in the count(idProduct) are wrong (i am not sure what they are counting now)
so now i dont understand how i can make my query, all i want is a query where in one collumn i have the product id, and in the other the quantity sold (that would be the count of all the product ids found multiplied by the quantity sold)
so now i am completelly lost, now i dont know what to do with my query.
any help pls pls pls!!!!

Hello To All @ Dev Shed,
I have three tables, say, A, B, and C. Both B and C contain/reference the primary key of A, ie B.a_id, and C.a_id. Multiple rows in B and multiple rows in C can have the same a_id. C and B have no relationships and essentially independant of each other.
I'm trying to find a single query (to prevent having to rewite function interfaces) that can return all the fields of A, the sum of a feilds in B, B.cost, where B.a_id = A.a_id and finially the count of C.a_id 's for where C.a_id = A.a_id.
The query I've been worlking on so far is as follows,
SELECT A.name, A.a_id, SUM (B.cost), COUNT ( DISTINCT C.a_id)
FROM A LEFT JOIN B USING (a_id) LEFT JOIN C USING (a_id)
GROUP BY A.a_id
This produces the correct result for the count of C.a_id (thanks to a DISTINCT) but the sum of B.cost is out by the factor of count C.a_id. I can see why this is happening but have completely run out of ideas. Group by on two columns may be? A strategically placed subquery? Is is even possible?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.
Peter
PS I'm new to this forum thing so if you want the unsimplified query with all the full names just let me know and I'll post it.

tbl_Events: CallSign(Char), TotalKM(Char), EventDate(SmallDateTime)... Plenty of others, but they're not relevnt.
The result that I want to see is:
CALL SIGN Last Name First Name Date Number Of Events TotalKM
111 MR. X 01/01/2008 3 40
I know this:
The number of events is countable.
if you do the following convert "Convert(int, TotalKM) you can sum up the Total KM.
But how do I group it together?!

I pulled data from several tables into temp table and I want to write a query to do count specfic data in certain columns and group it by the Owner... here is a sample table and query below, however in the real table there are more owner's, so I want to avoid using statements like - where owner = 'Smith'
table1
------
CID |Owner|Color|Data|NextAction
----------------------------
1234|Smith|Blue |A |Level1
5678|Jones|Green|C |Level3
9012|Smith|Blue |A |Level2
0987|Smith|Red |c |Level1
4567|Jones|Green|B |Level3
etc...
Query
------
Select distinct(owner),
(Select count(Color) from #table1 where Color = 'Blue') Blue,
(Select count(Color) from #table1 where Color = 'Green') Green,
(Select count(Color) from #table1 where Color = 'Red') Red,
(Select count(Data) from #table1 where Data = 'A')A,
(Select count(Data) from #table1 where Data = 'B')B,
(Select count(Data) from #table1 where Data = 'C')C,
(Select count(nextaction) from #table1 where nextaction = 'Level1')Level1,
(Select count(nextaction) from #table1 where nextaction = 'Level2')Level2,
(Select count(nextaction) from #table1 where nextaction = 'Level3')Level3,
from #table1
group by owner
Does't really work... I tried putting a group by in the sub select but I get and error because I get multiple rows and that is not allowed when you use a sub query as an expression... so it said..
OUTPUT Should Look Like
Owner|Blue|Green|Red|A|B|C|Level1|Level2|Level3
----------------------------------------------------
Smith| 2 | 1 | 1 |2|0|1| 2 | 1 | 0
Jones| 0 | 2 | 0 |0|1|1| 0 | 0 | 2
Thanks
