There are three columns I need to query and rank, then group and total. I'm using MS SQL server 2000 and it doesn’t have a ranking function like the newer SQL server and oracle has. Does anyone have a clever way to create or simulate a ranking function? Thanks so much!
Jake :confused:
Hello Guys!i have been working with oracle with quite a time.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,I am interested in showing a ranking of each result that I get. Basically, the results will be the time of a race along with their name. However, what I want to do is also have a third column that will show their place. I would like my result to be like this:Place Name Time 1 Bob 1:00.002 Bill 1:00.012 Rob 1:00.014 Jill 1:00.025 Jon 1:00.035 Joe 1:00.037 Jane 1:00.04 Records are constantly being added to the table, so the place must be calculated dynamically. Now, I do realize that SQL 2005 has the wonderful RANK() OVER (ORDER BY [time]) AS [Place] feature, but unfortunately SQL 2000 does not have that mechanism. What is the best way to display these results? Should they be included calculated on the SQL side or using the datagridview control? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,Jason
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am having an issue with a SQL query I wrote in SQL 2000. I am almost there but am lacking in one area, hoping a better programmer than me and a fresh set of eyes can pick off my mistake.
The goal is very straight forward, order and rank the following fields:
R1.PSWins DESC, R1.PSPoints_Total DESC, R1.PSTBDifference
The issue lies in my sub query in the AND / OR joins... This query will work if I sort and rank on two fields, but if I try three or more it does not work properly.
Here is my entire query:
SELECT
TOP 100 PERCENT
R1.AutoPoolID,
R1.PoolType,
R1.Week,
R1.Username,
R1.TieBreakerTotal,
R1.Wins,
R1.Losses,
R1.Ties,
R1.TBActual,
R1.TBDifference,
R1.WinPercentage,
R1.Points_Thursday,
R1.Points_Saturday,
R1.Points_Sunday,
R1.Points_Monday,
R1.Points_Total,
(
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM tblWeeklyStandings_All R2
WHERE R2.AutoPoolID = R1.AutoPoolID AND R2.Week = R1.Week AND
(
R2.PSWins > R1.PSWins OR
R2.PSWins = R1.PSWins AND
R2.PSPoints_Total > R1.PSPoints_Total OR
R2.PSPoints_Total = R1.PSPoints_Total AND R2.PSTBDifference < R1.PSTBDifference
)
) + 1 AS Rank
FROM dbo.tblWeeklyStandings_All R1 INNER JOIN
dbo.qryUsers_SDR ON R1.AutoPoolID = dbo.qryUsers_SDR.AutoPoolID AND R1.PoolID = dbo.qryUsers_SDR.PoolID
WHERE
(R1.PoolType = '2007' OR R1.PoolType = '2008') AND
(dbo.qryUsers_SDR.OrderBy1 = '6') AND
(dbo.qryUsers_SDR.PointSpread = 1)
ORDER BY R1.PSWins DESC, R1.PSPoints_Total DESC, R1.PSTBDifference
At this point I am ready to buy SQL 2005 because I think this gets easier, hoping a 2000 wiz can help me correct my error, or missing "(", or something!
Here are the results:
Rank Username Wins Points TB Difference
1. test 0618084 16 50 0
4. test 0618083 16 50 66
3. test 0618081 15 50 55
4. test 0618082 14 50 55
5. admin 2 0 0
As you can see the ranking is not correct. It should be the following:
Rank Username Wins Points TB Difference
1. test 0618084 16 50 0
2. test 0618083 16 50 66
3. test 0618081 15 50 55
4. test 0618082 14 50 55
5. admin 2 0 0
Sometimes it works sometimes it does not, frustrating!
In different scenerios, I am ranking the following way when ties occur. My code sometimes does this correctly but as you can see above it fails in certain areas, like it forgets R1.PSWins DESC, R1.PSPoints_Total DESC, R1.PSTBDifference....
Rank
1 Tied
1 Tied
3
4
5 Tied
5 Tied
5 Tied
8
etc...
The most frustrating thing is the sort order is correct, it is the rank sub query that fails under certain scenerious...

Hello-
I was wondering if someone could help me out. What would be the best way for me to go about determining the sale number from the following table:
applicantID calltime result
1 1/5/05 no sale
1 1/15/05 no sale
1 1/25/05 sale
1 1/26/05 no sale
12 1/5/05 no sale
12 1/15/05 no sale
12 1/16/05 no sale
12 1/25/05 sale
12 1/26/05 no sale
the resulting query would provide:
applicantID saleattempt
1 3
12 4
etc. Ultimately, I am trying to figure out how many attempts needed to make a sale.
Thank you...

Hi,
I have successfully created a CLR function (C#) in SQL 2005 and call it from a stored procedure. I need to be able to provide the same functionality for SQL 2000 servers. Is this at all possible? I have read loads of conflicting information on the web about using COM to access the dll €“ can it be done or not? The function accepts serveral input parameters and internally access the data store using a context connection and a datareader.
Thanks.
I am looking for the MS SQL equivalent of MySQL LIMIT.
I know that the code in MySQL is
SELECT col_name FROM tbl_name LIMIT x,y
where x = the starting row and y = the offset
E.g. SELECT movie_name FROM my_movies LIMIT 10,5
This will give me the records from 11-15
I would like to know what is the MS SQL equivalent for the above?
i have a table containing the top 5 teams points for the current season using the rank function, and as well as their points for last season.the only problem is that i want to add a sequential ranking to the table so that if there are 2 or more teams with the same score this season, they are ranked based on their points last season;
League -- Team - Season -- Points
League 1 AAA 2013-14 90
League 1 BBB 2013-14 80
League 1 CCC 2013-14 75

hello.
is there a rational explanation for which after some select statements, the rank returned by the full-text search engine is 0, knowing that just after the repopulation the rank is displayed correctly?
in other words, time and usage messes up the ranking. why?

I have 2 SQL statements in Visual Basic(with sybase as backend)
1) "set option DBA.MAX_STATEMENT_COUNT = 1069999900"
2) "set option DBA.MAX_CURSOR_COUNT = 1069999900"
And when I migrated the DB from Sybase to SQL server and try to run the vb code it is giving me error in that SQL statement as MS SQL server might not be recognising the above two statements. Is there an equivalent of this in SQL server.
Thanks

Hello all,
I'm making a query for this application that is not in the same server where the database is located.
This query I can easily get results when making the query within the server:
USE ADW_Publish;
SELECT distinct b.Subject
FROM dbo.F_Class_Exam a
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.D_Course_Catalog b
ON a.Course_ID = b.Course_ID
WHERE a.Term = '$536870994$' AND a.Class_Exam_Type = 'FIN' AND b.Term = '$536870994$'
ORDER BY b.Subject
Here are the details:
Servername: SERVER01
What would an equivalent query be if I apply this to an external application (located outside the server?)
I've gotten some hints to use:
SELECT *
FROM OPENDATASOURCE('MSDASQL', 'DataSource=DataSourceName;UserID=User;Password=SomePassword').DBName.dbo.TableName
But I dont know how to apply the query above to use that..
Any thoughts? Or are there other ways of doing it?
Thanks!
I am migrating a student database from Access to SQL Server. In AccessI have a query that displays grade information (grades are calculatedon a 12-point scale).

Hi,
I've been looking for the equivalent of the MS Access 2003 field caption property in SQL but it appears as though there isn't one.
(The caption property gives a friendly name on form labels rather than the field name)
How would I do this in SQL so I don't have to overtype all the column names? Could it be with Views?
Any pointers appreciated - I'm moving & learning from Access to SQL
Hi,
I have small question regarding ORDER BY clause.
I wanted some value of the fields should come first before other values….Something like:
+----------+----------------------------------------+
| code | name |
+----------+----------------------------------------+
| UK | United Kingdom |
| US | United States |
| AF | Afghanistan |
| AL | Albania |
| DZ | Algeria |
| AS | American Samoa |
I want to display country UK and US code first and then rest of the countries using SQL statement. I know in MySQL, I can use ORDER BY code IN (...)
--SQL
SELECT * FROM countries ORDER by code IN ('UK', 'US') desc
But not sure how can I do same thing in SQL Server. Is there any equivalent of ORDER BY [field] IN (…) clause in SQL Server???
Though I can create a new field something like sequence and use it to display these countries but I can not do that…
Please advice.
Thanks,

Is there an equivalent to Oracle's ROWNUM in SQL Server. ROWNUM, when added to a select statement as a column - the query would return an automatic counter, numbering each row returned.

Hi,
Can any one tell me is there anything in SQL Server thats equivalent
to Oracle's ROWNUM.
Note that the Identity Property or TOP n will not solve my problem.
I want to asign a sequence no. to each row when its being fetched.
For example if in the emp table there are 2000 rows and I write
the following query in Oracle ,
SELECT rownum , empno, empname FROM emp Where rownum < =3
I get the result like this
Rownum----Empno--------------Empname
------------------------------------------
1-----------2345---------------ABCD
2-----------3334---------------EFGH
3-----------4484---------------IJKL
I know I can limit the output rows in SQL Server by using TOP n. But
I also want to generate a sequence no. The identity property of SQL Server
will not be usefull here because my actaul WHERE clause will be more
complex like WHERE resigndate = '01-jan-2004'
Thanks
