I have a strange problem that I haven't dealt with before.
I need to execute a piece of code based on date ranges. If the date range is:
Scenario 1:between 02/28 (Feb 28) and 07/31 (July 31) do x ----------------------------------------------------------- Scenario 2:between 08/01 (Aug 1) and 01/31 (Jan 31) do y
Can anyone help me with this code. I am having a SCD (Stupid Coder Day) and can't seem to do anything that is scalable - like accounting for leap years (Feb issue) and the fact that Scenario # 2 above is between 2 different calender years.

I am trying to automate a report. The report is supposed to generate a result that will differ based on the date ranges going into the future. E.g.
[1]. If the run date of the report is between '2/1/20xx' and '7/31/20xx' display <ABC> or
[2]. If the run date of the report is between '8/1/20xx' and '1/31/20xx' display <PQR>
In example # 2. I am moving from one year to the next (July to Dec and the one extra month of Jan). So for example, if the guy runs the report between August of 2008 and January of 2009, display <PQR>.
How do I achieve both # 1 & 2 above in a code? Does this explain better.
I have a DB named zCIFRecord with a column named CIFUpdateDate which is of datatype varchar. The data is a date MM/DD/YYYY 01/30/2008, this is al that is in this column. I can search this colum for individual dates and for a range of dates. My problem is with a range of dates that is not within the same year, such as;
SELECT [CIFPan]
,[CIFMemNum]
,[CIFLName]
,[CIFFName]
FROM [FutureSoft].[dbo].[zCIFRecord]
WHERE [CIFUpdateDate] between '12/01/2007' and '01/30/2008'
will return nothing because it seems to only search on the 12 then the 01 then the 2008. this search can be performed properly on dates within the same year such as;
SELECT [CIFPan]
,[CIFMemNum]
,[CIFLName]
,[CIFFName]
FROM [FutureSoft].[dbo].[zCIFRecord]
WHERE [CIFUpdateDate] between '01/01/2008' and '01/30/2008'
will return the proper values because now all the numbers are in correct order. How can i create a search that lets me perform the first query as well as the second query. I tried to convert to a float but you cant convert a varchar to a float.
I am doing a search on a column of type varchar, the columns all contain dates in the future. When i perform a query
SELECT [CIFPan]
,[CIFMemNum]
,[CIFLName]
,[CIFFName]
,[CIFExpDate]
FROM [FutureSoft].[dbo].[zCIFRecord]
WHERE CAST([CIFExpDate] AS smalldatetime) between '12/01/2000' and '01/30/2015'
I get error:
Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Conversion failed when converting character string to smalldatetime data type.
I can use this same query on an exactly same other field that contains dates in the past. Is there some kind of limitation on the dates as far as them being in the future or past?
How can I do this with Parameters? I can get a single parameter to filter for a single date (or even a combo list of the dates in DB). But I want my parameters to interact so that they specify a range. Is this possible?
Today I have got one scenario to calculate the (sum of days difference minus(-) the dates if the same date is appearing both in assgn_dtm and complet_dtm)/* Here goes the table schema and sample data */
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[temp_tbl]') AND type in (N'U')) DROP TABLE [dbo].[temp_tbl] GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[temp_tbl]( [tbl_id] [bigint] NULL, [cs_id] [int] NOT NULL, [USERID] [int] NOT NULL,
I have a table that has hotel guests and their start stay date and end stay date, i would like to insert into a new table the original information + add all days in between.
I want to know if there is a way to compare dates in the sql statement with dates that I input into a database and todays date. the datatype that I'm using is smalldatetime.The statement I used is:Select Date from Table where Date > 'Today.now'I get an errorCould this be done or is there another approach?
I have a table which records employees'time-off records. There are 6 columns in this TimeOff table. They are RequestID, EmpName, StartDate, EndDate, Type, NumofDays. I have another table which has all the dates from 01/01/1950 to 01/01/2056.
I am trying write a query which lists all the dates between the timeoff startdate and enddate, including the the start and end dates, but my query so far only lists the start and end date in a timeoff record:
SELECT D.[Date], Datename(dw,D.[Date]) AS Weekday FROM Dates D LEFT JOIN TimeOff T ON D.[Date] = T.OffStartDate OR D.[Date] = T.OffEndDate WHERE (OffType = 'Sick Day' AND EmpName = 'Cat White') AND (D.[Date] BETWEEN T.StartDate AND T.EndDate)
Has anyone ever written a function to retrieve all individual dates between two given dates? Using DATEDIFF I can get the number of days between two dates. However I need to iterate through the days to identify weekend and holiday dates. Has anyone ever written a function to do this?
So, if select datediff(d,'07/01/2007','07/15/2007') as NumOfDays returns 14, I'd need to iterate through the 14 days and get the weekends and holidays. Would I have to use a cursor to iterate through the days?
I'm trying to generate this query, that displays Budget Current Year , Actual Current Year and Prior Year Revenue. When It comes to the Budget and Actual everything works fine, however when I try to add the query for the Prior Year I get an error, and I realized that the leap date is causing the error
Here is what I'm trying to generate

I am trying to find all the email addresses with a " ._" I use '%._%' but it returns all records. What is the correct syntax? Also, is there a way to search for a field where the underscore is followed by a single alpha letter and then another underscore? like bla_A_bla or bla_Z_bla.thanksMilton SELECT DISTINCT fname, lname, inet FROM ocadbo.notes where inet like '%._%'
the application registers the student details to a course. each student gets a new registration no during registration.
the app should identify repeaters to a particular course by checking another table RegHistory, which stores the details of student registrations for the previous 5 years.
to determine whether a student is a repeater or not, we have to search for an exact match in RegHistory table (where the student name, guardian name and date of birth in both tables match with the corresponding entries in Registration table).
here is my question,
if there are 100,000 students registering in each academic year, we will have 500,000 records in RegHistory Table and 100,000 records in studReg table
if i start searching for a repeater, i guess i will have to loop through all records in studReg, for an exact match in RegHistory, which wil be a time consuming process.
is there any other options to search for repeaters ?

Now I want to run/deploy this code to many servers at once. Instead of having to reconnect to all server (5), I want an add-in which have checkboxes for me to select.
Hi,I have come to point in my db design where I'm trying to figure whichis the best approach in making it generic (does this really matter?!?)Senario - I have a table called JOBS and this table contains fieldsuch as JobTitle, JobDescription, Salary etcI want to add to this table other attributes which are specific to acertain Job Industries.Solution - Add a join table for each type of industry containingattributes (db is now not generic) OR add a new table with a IndustryType field and a XML field containing the industry specificattributes.If I go the XML way will this just make it complex and slow to query?If not, what is the best way to query an XML field?Thanks,Jack

i'm making a web page for a clinic.it needs to be able to search for patients by first name, surname, date of birth and patient number.i'm using visual web developer and i have my database, my data source and GridView grid.i want 4 text boxes for my first name, surname etc. when u click enter on any of them i want to retrieve all their data and display it in the gridview.at the moment i have one text box on the web page and through the "Configure data source" option on the grid view i can retrieve the specified data but for only this one item, e.g. SELECT * FROM [Patients] WHERE ([DOB] = @DOB). if i add another text box to my web page, and don't do anything to it, the query wont run. if i add and "AND" statement to the query, e.g. SELECT * FROM [Patients] WHERE (([DOB] = @DOB) AND ([FirstName] = @FirstName)), again it won'r run or return and data. any ideas on what i can do or where i'm going wrong. thanks

Just wanted to run this idea past u all before I have a go at it.
I have two tables A & B that are similar to the below
Table A Name1 Name2 Name3 Tom Bill John Gary Harry Eric
TableB Name1 Name2 Name3 John Bill Tom Tom Eric john Leslie Philip Colin
What I wanted to do is see if the the records from tableA row 1 exist in tableB
As you can see they can appear in any order, partially or not at all.
What I propose to do is take tableA Name1 and see if it matches tableb row1 name 1 OR name 2 OR name 3 and if I find a match use a variable to assign the the value 1 (so I can then see if the match is full (score three) partial socre 1 and two or not at all (0)
Then I will need do the same for tableA row 2
Then goto row 2 of table a and start again.
Does this make sense? Are there beter ways of doing this.

I have a products table with product attributes in a second table, together they describe a full product. I have a product title, a list of providers, description text, and keywords. I would like to do a search across these fields, and so far my research has shown that the Full Text Search component of SQL Server is the way to go. However, I am not sure this will be possible based on what is installed on the hosted server, so I am wondering if there is a unique, cool way of doing this without Full Text Search?
