Query Table Name / Column Name Given Value
Oct 16, 2013
tablename/columnname to query the return values.I want to have this query that returns the table names and column names that contain the given value(s). Business needs dictated that I have to start from given values instead. That is to say we own the apps developed by vendors, and own the dbs, but no middle tier code, nor data dictionary.
So, I started with this
select distinct object_Name(Object_ID) myTbls, [name] from sys.columns where name like '%mycolname%'
and object_Name(Object_ID) not like 'fn%'
I have to guess the possible column name as the starter. I realize if the condition value is not very unique, the return dataset could be huge. It is a performance nightmare and it is useless. So I hope the solution will let me specify, say return the first 1000 matches.

I need to name make the name of a column the same as the name of a table from the result of a sql query.. here is the assignment question below..I can't figure out how to get the name of the table to be inputed as the column name..
Write a script that uses dynamic SQL to return a single column that represents the number of rows in the first table in the current database. The script should automatically choose the table that appears first alphabetically, and it should exclude tables named dtproperties and sysdiagrams. [highlight=#ffff11]Name the column CountOfTable, where Table is the chosen table name.[/highlight]
Hint: Use the sys.tables catalog view.
I can figure out the rest. and actually have alredy done it, but i cannot figure out how to do the part that is highlighted above. I looked at lots of things on google to figure it out but no luck..Can some just give me some directlon or an example..

I have a table with a column AttributeNumber and a column AttributeValue. The data is like this:
OrderNo. AttributeNumber AttributeValue
1.-Order_1 2001 A
2.-Order_1 2002 B
3.-Order_1 2003 C
4.-Order_2 2001 A
5.-Order_2 2002 B
6.-Order_2 2003 C
So the logic is as follows:
I need to display in my query the values are coming from Order_1, means AttributreValues coming from AttibuteNumbers: 2001,2002,2003...and Order_2 the same thing.
Not sure how to create my Select here since the values are in the same table

Hello All
I have the following problem running an sp with a table variable (sql server 2000) - the error which occurs at the end of the query is: "must declare the variable @THeader" . @THeader is the name of the variable table and the error occurs with such references as @THeader.ApplyAmt, @THeader.TransactionHeaderID, etc.
declare @THeader TABLE (
TransactionHeaderID [int] NOT NULL ,
PatientID [int] NOT NULL ,
TransactionAllocationAmount [money] NOT NULL ,
ApplyAmt [money] NULL ) - create table variable
insert into @THeader select TransactionHeaderID,PatientID,TransactionAllocationAmount,ApplyAmt from mtblTransactionHeader where PatientID = 9 - fill the table variable
UPDATE @THeader
set TransactionAllocationAmount =
(SELECT isnull(Sum(mtblTransactionAllocation.Amount),0)
FROM mtblTransactionAllocation where mtblTransactionAllocation.DRID = TransactionHeaderID or
mtblTransactionAllocation.CRID = TransactionHeaderID) from @THeader, mtblTransactionAllocation - do the updates on the table variable
Update @THeader
set ApplyAmt = (SELECT mtblTransactionAllocation.Amount
FROM mtblTransactionAllocation where mtblTransactionAllocation.DRID = TransactionHeaderID and
mtblTransactionAllocation.CRID = 187 and PatientID = 9) from @THeader, mtblTransactionAllocation - do the updates on the table variable
- below is where the problems occur. It occurs with statements referencing columns in the table variable, i.e. @THeader.ApplyAmt
UPDATE mtblTransactionHeader
SET mtblTransactionHeader.TransactionAllocationAmount = @THeader.TransactionAllocationAmount,
mtblTransactionHeader.ApplyAmt = @THeader.ApplyAmt
FROM @THeader, mtblTransactionHeader
WHERE @THeader.TransactionHeaderID = mtblTransactionHeader.TransactionHeaderID - put the values back into original table
Thanks in advance

I have a set of data spread across a number of tables regarding stock market data. An example of this follows:
Market Capitalization...
Date CompA CompB
01/01/11 100 5
02/01/11 102 4
Share Price....
Date CompA CompB
01/01/11 100 100
02/01/11 101 99
Event Data...
Date Company
01/01/11 CompA
02/01/11 CompB
Pretty simply, I need a way to retrieve the market capitalisation and share price data based on the event data. So for instance I say 'oh, there is an event on the 01/01/11 involving company A, the market capitalisation on this day was 100, then for the next event it was 4 for company B.
I can also transpose the data so that the company name is in the rows and the dates in the columns for the market cap and share price tables, but this leads to the issue that when I try and get the data, I don't know how to query the correct company for that date.
For instance:
SELECT Event.Date, Event.Company
FROM Event
how do I now say.....
SELECT MarketCapitalisation.Column
WHERE Column = Event.Company
AND MarketCapitalisation.Date = Event.Date.
I have played around with a few basic joins, but I am having issue with the principle of that second to last line of SQL (so only getting the correct column).
I still have a copy of the data in excel so can flip things around as needed, but that would only mean that I would have the issue of WHERE Column = Event.Date instead of Event.Company.

I have data in a table (@Outer) that I am matching to a lookup table (@Inner) which contains multiple "matches" where nulls can match any value. By sorting the inner table and grabbing the top record, I find the "best" match. I know the sort and the null matches work but I don't understand why the correlated sub query below doesn't understand that the OJ prefix refers to the outer table.DECLARE @Outer TABLE (
OuterID int IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
MethodID int NULL,
CompID int NULL,
FormID int NULL,
InnerID int NULL
)
INSERT @Outer VALUES (2, 2, 2, NULL) -- OuterID = 1
INSERT @Outer VALUES (3, 2, 1, NULL) -- OuterID = 2
DECLARE @Inner TABLE (
InnerID int IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
MethodID int NULL,
CompID int NULL,
FormID int NULL
)
INSERT @Inner VALUES (2, null, null) -- InnerID 1
INSERT @Inner VALUES (2, null, 1) -- InnerID 2
INSERT @Inner VALUES (2, 2, null) -- InnerID 3
INSERT @Inner VALUES (3, null, null) -- InnerID 4
INSERT @Inner VALUES (3, 2, null) -- InnerID 5
INSERT @Inner VALUES (4, 2, 1) -- InnerID 6
-- UPDATE Outer Table with best match from Inner table
UPDATE @Outer SET
InnerID = IJ.InnerID
FROM @Outer OJ
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT TOP 1 I.*
FROM @Inner I
WHERE IsNull(I.MethodID, OJ.MethodID) = OJ.MethodID
AND IsNull(I.CompID, OJ.CompID) = OJ.CompID
AND IsNull(I.FormID, OJ.FormID) = OJ.FormID
ORDER BY I.MethodID DESC, I.CompID DESC, I.FormID DESC
) IJ ON OJ.MethodID = IsNull(IJ.MethodID, OJ.MethodID)
AND OJ.CompID = IsNull(IJ.CompID, OJ.CompID)
AND OJ.FormID = IsNull(IJ.FormID, OJ.FormID) SELECT * FROM @Outer
The result should be OuterID 1 matched to Inner ID 3 and OuterID 2 matched to Inner ID 5.
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

where including/excluding a single column in an empty staging table would influence a resultset returning from distributed query? Both servers are SQL Server 2012. Nothing special about the staging table. It contains 12 columns with a mixture of INT and NVARCHAR(256) columns. In one case I exclude the column and the query returns in 17 seconds. When I include it the query does not return. Excluding the INSERT INTO the staging table and query returns in 17 secs with and without the column.

Hi, all experts here,
Thanks for your kind attention.
I want to use time series algorithm to mine data from my case table and nested table. Case table is Date table, while nested table is the fact table. E.g, I want to predict the monthly sales amount for different region (I have region table related to the fact table), how can I achieve this?
Thanks a lot and I hope it is clear for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.

Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am confused on key column of case table and key time column of nested table by using Time Series algorithm.
In my case, the case table structure is as below:
Territory key text (the ID is actually dimrisk_key, in this case, I use the name column binding to combine the Territory column of case table Dimrisks),
While the nested table structure is as below:
Cal_month key time (in this case, actually the ID is dimdate_key, again, I used name column bining property to bind the Cal_month to the ID)
So my question is, as the key column of case table has been set to be Territory, as a result, does the model training still cover all the cases (rows) based on the ID of the table?
Also, in the nested table, as the key time column has been set to Cal_month rather than Dimdate_key of the nested table, as a result, would the single series based on the cal_month?
Hope it is clear for your advices and help.
And I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
