Query Using Commas
Mar 12, 2007
Hi,
I have table Article(ID,Title,FAID)
I need a query that will select all the Article.ID records where the FAID contains the number of the article ID
For exapmle, Article Table content is:
1, "Title1","2,6"
2, "Title2",""
3, "Title3","6,1"
6, "Title6","2"
Lets say I want to get all titles of article ID 1. I am going to its FAID which is "2,6"
So the query will return : "Title2", "Title6"
Can you advice how to write this? I can do a walk around solution where I will open a new table name FA but I rather not to.

HI
I have three different columns as email1,email2 , email3.I am concatinating these columns into one i.e EMail like
select ISNULL(dbo.tblperson.Email1, N'') + ';' + ISNULL(dbo.tblperson.Email2, N'') + ';' + ISNULL(dbo.tblperson.Email3, N'') AS Email from tablename.
One eg of the output of the above query when email2,email3 are having null values in the table is :
jacky_foo@mfa.gov.sg;;
means it is inserting semicoluns whenever there is a null value in the particular column. I want to remove this extra semicolumn whenever there is null value in the column.
Please let me know how can i do this

I am using SQL 2005 and have a query that returns seven columns of data. In one the columns, the results contains commas. For example, one of the results is 'brooke, nick, dustin, and me.jpg'. The results are saved into a .csv file so it can be imported into Excel. The user named the file with the commas and I need to preserve the original file name.
My question:
Is there some way to format the data inside of SQL so that when it gets saved as a .csv file, the extra commas don't throw off the column layout?
I don't want to have to manually clean up possibly several hundred rows of data everytime I run the query.
Thanks in advance.

Hello all,
I am using SQL Server 6.5 SP5a.
I have to use bcp to import two text files everyday for database update. The problem is that some of the character fields that are being imported have double-quotes and/or commas in them. When these are imported into the SQL Server tables additional double quotes are being added into these strings.
Example:
INCOMING STRING = a"a
IMPORTED STRING = "a""a"
INCOMING STRING = b,b
IMPORTED STRING = "b,b"
I have searched through BOL and have not been able to find any information.
Does anyone know what is causing this and if so how to correct it?
Thanks,
Bryan Ziel

Hello Nice simple T-SQL question that will no doubt prove totally uncontroversial :) Anyone know the easiest way to get from:123456789to123,456,789in T-SQL? Currently I cast my int as money, use convert to varchar with style 1 and then lop off the .00. Is there an easier way? Two things before you get all upset and start squealing about front ends:1) These are admin functions that I am running from SSMS. I don't want to go to the bother of creating an application when SSMS is perfectly adequate for what I need (namely to-a-large-degree unformatted result sets).2) I'm not too fussed about it just curious. Ta & tra la!

I have a hierarchy of product categories and I want to string them together to show the complete path (breadcrumbs) to the item. Each category/subcat must be separated buy a comma. The catch is that not all items have the same number of cats/subcats. Here is what I am currently doing, but as you can see, this results in extra commas where the subcats are null.
Code:
create table #ItemCat(
itemNo int,
Cat varchar(50),
SubCat1 varchar(50),
SubCat2 varchar(50)
[Code] ....
Is there some way to concatenate these, separated by commas, but ignoring the NULL fields? For example, ItemNo 1 should show "Kitchen, Appliances"

Because the data contains commas, I've had to change the data type to varchar. I've seen several instances of PATINDEX used however I have not ran across any of them that would put the above in the order in which I need. Btw, I have about 20 columns with this type of data and I eventually plan to use the results of each column to populate dropdownlists . Thank you all in advance.

Have a column in my DB called _Venue, which has been populated with address information separated by commas, like this:
Address1,address2,address3,address4
The address has sometimes only a few lines, for example I may have just Address1 or just address1 and address2 filled etc.
I need to write a query that will individually select addressX, so I can pick and choose what part of the full address to use.
Can these be done?
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to create a SSIS package with a csv flat file for the both the destination and source. I cannot control the source file. I need to be able to handle an extra comma in the source file which occasionally contains suffixes i.e. {John, Smith, Jr,} which could cause some records to be 9 fields and others 10. Any ideas?

Hello,
This may be a strange request, but I am going to ask about it anyways.
Say for example if I have a table named TEST and in the table there is a column named NUMBERS, such that it is like this:
NUMBERS
1
2
3
4
How could I use a select statement in a way that a comma would seperate every return value, such that if I go 'Select NUMBERS from TEST' I would get:
1,2,3,4
Instead of:
1
2
3
4
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,
I recently used the REPLACE command, as described in a previous topic on this forum, to remove unwanted commas however I've now got a new problem, the column has become half a mile long. I was asked to raise a new topic and give examples, see below:
CAN ANYONE TELL ME:
1. Why is the column now bigger?
2. How can I redue the size of the column to it's origional size?
I have already attempted to use CONVERT, RTRIM and CAST around the replace command, all give an error.
Example query and result before REPLACE:
select ICMAFinInstName,CptyCode from tradedetails
ICMAFinInstName CptyCode
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------
Example query and result using REPLACE:
select replace (ICMAFinInstName,',',' ')AS NoCommaInst,CptyCode from tradedetails
NoCommaInstrument CptyCode
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------
(I see in the preview that this forum has removed the spaces between the titles, but the dashes (--) show the size of the columns
Thanks

I use SQL Server 2000.
I have some names stored in a table in the following format...
eg
"Royales, Jon"
"Smith, Alan"
"Jones, Tom"
what I would like to see is...
"Jon Royales"
"Alan Smith"
"Tom Jones"
I assume I should search the string for a comma (,) and use split and then rejoin the values. I need to do this as part of my select statement... is it possible?
I have searched the forums for similar posts but didn't find anything helpful.

I have what seems to be a common problem where I have names like "Last, First" that I need to be able to select using a multi-value parameter, which of course, SSRS passes as comma-delimited and gets messed up. I need to find a way to use a different delimiter or pass CHAR(44) instead of the comma, or something. Even worse, some people have suffixes and multiple commas in one name!

If I pull a value from a MSSQL field with is defined as money, how can I get it to display in a textbox with commas and NO decimals?
87000.0000 = 87,000
I can currently remove the decimals like below but is there a way to add the commas as well?
decRevenue = drMyData("Revenue")
txtRevenue.Text = decRevenue.ToString("f0")
It current shows "87000".

All I have a situation where I need to split the column to rows which is delimited using commas and semicolons. Please find the below sample data.
Data in Tables
Test1, Test2, Test3
Test4;Test5;Test6
Desired output
Test1
Test2
Test3
Test4
Test5
Test6
Is there any way that I can get this output in SQL other than using the XML Conversion, since the data has some special characters in this.

I have a table that I am exporting via a SQL server table to a csv file, via the flat file connection manager within SSIS. My issue is that one of the fields in my table contains "," (commas), so when the file is created it creates new columns in the csv file because the field is "," comma delimited on the column. Is there anyway to get round this without having to get rid of commas in my table (which I've tried and works)?

Is there any nice way when saving a result set grid to CSV (right click, save to CSV) to properly delimit text fields that contain commas? As it is, text data that includes commas cannot be safely exported to CSV.
Example:
SELECT 'Hi there, friend!', 'Hi' UNION ALL
SELECT 'Bye now', 'Bye'

SQL Server 2005 9.0.3161 on Win 2k3 R2
I receive the following error:
"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."
I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.
INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)
VALUES (@journal_id, @acct_id, @acct_recv_id, @amount)
There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.
Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).
