Hi,
Please give the DML to SELECT the rows avoiding the duplicate rows. Since there is a text column in the table, I couldn't use aggregate function, group by (OR) DISTINCT for processing.
Table :
create table test(col1 int, col2 text)
go
insert into test values(1, 'abc')
go
insert into test values(2, 'abc')
go
insert into test values(2, 'abc')
go
insert into test values(4, 'dbc')
go
Please advise,
Thanks,
MiraJ
Hi,
I have results from a survey in a table, every entry is assigned a unique ID. I want to remove duplicate entries based on the survey data but not on the unique ID (obviously).
So far I have...SELECT DISTINCT RespondantID, Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8, Q9, Q10, Q11, Q12, Q13
FROM Results
But that gives...
1 - Anonymous

I.e. in the above example, it would seem that 'Martin' submitted his data once and then submitted it again with his name.
How can I remove the '2 - Anonymous' frrom the data set?
Thanks!
i've to generate a notepad using this query in vb.net :
strSql = "Select count(*), d.ShareholderId, d.UsufructId, d.BnkAccount, b.SBMCode, " & _
"LTRIM(ISNULL(d.TitleCode + ' ', '')) + LTRIM(ISNULL(d.Forename + ' ', '')) + d.Surname as ShName," & _
"d.BankCode, (select count(*) from (select ShareholderId from dividend " & _
"where CompCode = 'L1' and PaymentMode = 'B' group by ShareholderId, UsufructId, " & _
[Code]....
In the select statement i need to select "d.amount" as well. When i do so, it ask me to insert it in the group by option or in an aggregate function.
Grouping by "d.amount" returns extra field as there can be 2 similar "d.shareholderId" but with different amount.
how to group the "d.amount" without having repetition in the "d.shareholderid" ??
Hi, Please help me with an SQL Query that fetches all the records from the three tables but a unique record for each forum and topicid with the maximum lastpostdate. Please provide separate solutions for SqlServer2000/2005.
I have four tables namely – Forums,Topics,Threads and Messages in SQL Server2000 (scripts for table creation and insertion of test data given at the end). Now, I have formulated a query as below :-
SELECT Forums.forumid AS ForumID,Topics.topicid AS TopicID,Topics.name AS TopicName,LastPosts.date as LastPostDate,LastPosts.author AS Author,
(select count(threadid) from Threads where Threads.topicid=Topics.topicid) as NoOfThreads
FROM Forums JOIN Topics ON Forums.forumid=Topics.forumid
LEFT OUTER JOIN
(
SELECT Topics.forumid,Threads.topicid,Messages.date,Messages.author FROM Topics
INNER JOIN Threads ON Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid
INNER JOIN Messages ON Threads.threadid=Messages.threadid
WHERE Messages.date=(SELECT MAX(date) FROM Messages WHERE Messages.threadid = Threads.threadid)
) as LastPosts
ON LastPosts.forumid = Topics.forumid AND LastPosts.topicid = Topics.topicid
Whose result set is as below:-
forumid
topicid
name
LastPostDate
author
NoOfThreads

0 I want all the rows from the Forums,Topics and Threads table and the row with the maximum date (the last post date of the message) from the Messages table as shown above.
When I use the query by using only three tables namely Forums,Topics and Threads, I get the correct result. The query is as:-
SELECT Topics.forumid AS ForumID,Forums.name AS ForumName,Topics.topicid as TopicID,Topics.name as TopicName,
LastPosts.author AS Author,LastPosts.lastpostdate AS LastPost,
(select count(threadid) from threads where Threads.topicid=Topics.topicid) as NoOfThreads
FROM Forums JOIN Topics ON Forums.forumid=Topics.forumid LEFT OUTER JOIN (
SELECT Topics.forumid, Threads.topicid, Threads.lastpostdate, Threads.author FROM Threads
INNER JOIN Topics ON Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid
WHERE Threads.lastpostdate IN (SELECT MAX(lastpostdate) FROM threads WHERE Topics.topicid = Threads.topicid)
) AS LastPosts
ON LastPosts.forumid = Topics.forumid AND LastPosts.topicid = Topics.topicid
Whose result set is as:-

I have tested the code below to remove duplicate table entries based on the field IntOOS. This code works; however, I want to ensure I am removing the oldest entries and keeping the most recent entry. The field to key on this would be something like Max(ID). What would be the best way to ensure I keep the most recent table entry?

Hi all,
I have one table in which one column contains duplicate values. My question is how i can use T-SQL so that i can retrive values for all columns in the table which are distinct and retriving the single value from column which contains duplicate values.
(I know distinct)
Thanks in advance.
Minesh.

I have a table that holds the following
1 7530568 87143 OESCHD 1/5/2006 6:31:58 AM
1 7530568 87143 OESCHD 1/5/2006 7:02:36 AM
for each 7530568 ordernumber there should only be one OESCHD status.
This is the query I'm using to insert the data sent to me.
INSERT INTO ORDER_EVENTS
SELECT d.division as division,
dt.orderNum as orderNum,
dt.poNum as poNum,
dt.statusCode as statusCode,
dt.statusChangeDate as statusChangeDate
FROM dt_Order_Events dt INNER JOIN
division d ON dt.division = d.divisionShort INNER JOIN
status s ON s.division = d.division AND s.statCode = dt.statusCode
WHERE directive <> 'C' AND
dt.orderNum IN (SELECT orderNum FROM ORDER_HEADER)
This works fine when used with in the hourly transactional update. But When I ran it for the Bulk UpDate (so we'd have historical data) it allowed orders to have statuses to many times.
I am not a SQL guru, I have no idea how to write a sql statement or stored proc that will remove the duplicate records. or how to change what I have to prevent further ones.
Any help would be apreciated.
Hi There,
I am having a 1st listbox which is populating production lines, 2nd combobox to populate the production units. From here , the user will be able to select multiple production units from the combobox and hence populate the variable in listbox 3.
This is the query that I'm using to query on the variable table:
'SELECT DISTINCT PU_Id,Var_Id,Var_Desc from Variables
where PU_Id IN (@ProductionUnits)'
The problem now is that this would return all the variables for the selected production units and for those variables that have the same name, they would appear in the listbox as duplicates.
I wonder if there's any way to filter off or remove the duplicates in the listbox 3 by using sql query?
Thanks in advance for the help.

I am trying to get people from my table that have closed accounts. However, in my table many people have more than one account. They will have multiple closed accounts and some active accounts. I need to get the people with only closed accounts.
Values in the table
Code:

----------- --------- ----------- ------------- ----------------------------
Jeff Burns closed 2012/01/01 142
Tina Drewmor closed 2008/05/20 546
Jeff Burns active 1900/01/01 354
Kyle Higgin active 1900/01/01 851
Tina Drewmor closed 2009/04/14 154
The query I am using so far is:
Code:
select
d.name,
d.surname,
s.status,
s.closed,
s.number
from
d d inner join s s on d.number = s.number
where
s.status = 'closed'
What I need to see in the results

I have regular work that requires me to extract a bunch of customer records from our database, and then remove duplicate address destinations (so we dont mail the same address more than once).
I can currently achieve this using a combination of my poor SQL skills and Excel, but it's really not working out for me, so looking for SQL wizardry necessary to do it just in SQL.
Relevant fields:
Member.AddressBarcode (This is a unique barcode (Text representation of a base-3 number) based on the customer address. So if there's more than one record in the pulled records with the same barcode, we then look at Member.MemberTypeID to determine whether to include this record in the results or discard it as a duplicate. Note that AddressBarcode may be blank if the mailing address couldn't be validated, if it is blank we don't discard it since there is no easy way to detect duplicate addresses without the barcode)
Member.MemberTypeID (This is the type of member account. We have 3 types - Single, Joint Primary, Joint Secondary, represented in this field by the numbers 1/2/3. This is also the order of preference of who to mail. So if there is a Joint Primary and Joint Secondary with the same mailing barcode, we want to discard the Joint Secondary from the results, so that the Joint Primary is the record we include in the results of who to mail.)
Member.ID (Unique numeric ID for each customer. Kind of irrelevant here, but it's a key)
So some pseudo code for what I'm trying to achieve is:
(Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
OR (Member.MemberTypeID = 3 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 2 AND Member.AddressBarcode not in results of Member.MemberTypeID = 1)
I suspect it requires some sort of join...
Hi All,
Below is a snippet of MS SQL inside some VB that retieves
Commodity info such as product names and related information and returns the results in an ASP Page. My problem is that with certain searches, elements returned in the synonym field repeat. For instance, on a correct search I get green, red, blue, and yellow which is correct. On another similar search with different commodity say for material, I get Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic, Glass, Sand. I want to remove the repeating elements returned in this field. IOW, I just need one set of Plastic, Glass and Sand. I hope this makes sense.
Below is the SQL and the results from the returned page.
PS I tried to use distinct but with no luck I want just one of each in the example below.
Thanks in Advance!

hi All,
I have to remove non-useful and duplicate records containing NULL , Blanks and extra spaces (either on left or right side of the column values) etc from all the tables in my server's DB XYZ weekly thru a a scheduled job with the help of a Stored Proc, that s i guess called Purging og DB. Plz help how i can do it with T-SQL.
Also i have to find out and remove all the duplicate DB objects(tables) from the DB .e.g. a table existing with name TABLE_TEST or TABLE_DEBUG etc for an original table TABLE , making sure no any of the base table is dropped.
Plz help me reagrding these two problems.
Thanks in advance for the quick replies.

I have a stored procedure that returns a single row based on a parameter of employee ID. This particular procedure uses a CTE to traverse our org structure. One of the columns is returning a delimited string of Windows login values and due to the business rules, it can contain duplicate values. I need to have that column contain only unique values - no dupes.
For example, this one column could contain something like this:
domainuser1;domainuser2;domainuser2;domainuser 3;
The need is to convert to this:
domainuser1;domainuser2;domainuser3;
I know that's a tall order.
How to write a function to remove duplicated characters only if they come in sequence.
Examples
darrk should return dark
eeagle should return eagle
redd should return red
corner should corner as it is as the r's are not in sequence.
Hi,Say I have a table Job with columns name, date, salary . I want to getthe name ,date and salary for the date when that person earned maximumsalary. I am using something likeSELECT X.name,X.date,X.salaryFROM job XWHERE X.salary IN(SELECT MAX(Y.salary) FROM job Y where Y.name= X.name);The problem is ; if a person earns maximum salary on two dates, both ofthe dates are printed. I just want to get any one of those two rows.I triedSELECT X.name,Min(X.date),X.salaryFROM job XWHERE X.salary IN(SELECT MAX(Y.salary) FROM job Y where Y.name= X.name);but it gives error.Can anybody please suggest a solution?Regards,Aamir
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need write a query for removing duplicates, for Example in my table I have columns
A_ID name id
1 sam 10
2 sam 10
3 sam 10
4 sam 10
5 ccc 15
6 ccc 15
7 ccc 15
8 fff 20
9 fff 20
10 fff 20
So now I have duplicates values in id column so now I need to take only one value of each and delete the remaining. I need to take first id value 10,15,20 so only 3 rows should be there in my table.
It seems that there should be a solution for my situation, but for the life of me I can't seem to figure it out.
I need to compare two "like" tables, containing similar data. Tbl 1 is "BOOKED" (which is a snapshot of inventory) and tbl 2 is "CURRENT" (the live - working inventory table). If I write my query as follows the the subsequent result is "duplicate" data.
Code Block
SELECT booked.item, booked.bin, booked.quantity, current.bin, current.quantity
FROM BOOKED
LEFT JOIN
CURRENT
ON booked.item = current.item
No matter what type of join I use, there is duplicate data displayed for each table. For example, if there are more bins in the BOOKED table that contain a certain product then the CURRENT table will repeat data and vica versa.
As follows:
Item
Bin
Quantity
Bin
Quantity
12345
A01
500
A01
7680
12345
B01

What I would like to do is display Bin and Quantity only once and the repeating values as NULL or [BLANK]. Or, to display all of the bins from both tables and only the quantities from each table in relation to the bin found in that table, returning a "0" if no quantity exists.
This is what I'm after:
Item
Bin
Quantity
Bin

12345

Is this possible? If so, how?
I also might add that it is ok for each table to contain multiple entries for any given item. This is basically being requested as an inventory variance report - inventory before physical count and immediatly after physical count - and will only be run once a year.
-----------------------------------------------
Just thinking out loud here:
What if I created three subqueries, the first containing only BOOKED information, the second containing only CURRENT information and the third being a UNION of both tables? Something like this:
Code Block
SELECT q3.bin, q1.item, ISNULL(q1.quantity, 0) as QTY_BEFORE, ISNULL(q2.quantity, 0) as QTY_AFTER
FROM
(select item, bin, quantity
from BOOKED)q1
Left Join
(select item, bin, quantity
from CURRENT)q2
on q1.item = q2.item
Left Join
(select bin, item
from BOOKED
UNION
CURRENT)q3
on q1.item = q3.item
Order By q1.item
I don't know if I wrote the UNION statement correctly, but I will have to try this when I get back to work...
Any suggestions?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am trying to remove rows of data when the value in a textbox in the row is 0.
My expression for a value of a textbox in my report layout is:
=Fields!salary_FTE.Value+Fields!Leave_FTE.Value
Could you please show me how I edit this expression so a row of data does not show when the value in this textbox is 0, or, should I create this filter in my query rather than in the report layout?
Thanks

Please Help ME anyone..
Anyone know how to check the length of a varchar data in a table? I want to delete rows that contains an entry that exceeds 100 characters.
I should be able to write a program to do it, but I am wondering if I can do it in SQL.
I am running a query on multiple tables and the data I get back consists of several repeated rows but with one column different. I want to take out those repeated rows and for the column that is different join that data and separate it by a comma. Can this be done?
Ex.
Cindy Lair 111 Drury Circle Harrisburg Pennsylvania 717
Cindy Lair 111 Drury Circle Harrisburg Pennsylvania 610
Cindy Lair 111 Drury Circle Harrisburg Pennsylvania 310
So i would like this data to come up as:
Cindy Lair 111 Drury Circle Harrisburg Pennsylvania 717,610,310

I have a SqlDataSource that I need to remove the first 3 rows from before it is bound to a GridView. How would I go about doing this?
(if I could remove them at the db level in the sproc I would, but right now that is not an option - so I need to do it once I've already received the data)
Thanks.
I have an existing stored table with duplicate rows that I want to delete.Using a cte gives me
WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT rn = ROW_NUMBER()
OVER(
PARTITION BY employeeid, dateofincident, typeid, description
ORDER BY Id ASC), *
FROM dbo.TableName
)
DELETE FROM cte
WHERE rn > 1
This is what I want to do basically. But this is only deleting in my CTE, is there anyway I can update my existing table "TableName" with this, without using temp tables?
I used the following select statement to get duplicate records on Case_number column
select cases.distinct case_link, cases.case_number
from cases
group by case_link
having case_number > 1
I got the error message that
"'cases.warrant_number' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
AND
cases.case_number' is invalid in the HAVING clause because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
Any idea on a better statement to use. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

Hi,
i wanna know, how can i check if i have duplicate rows in my table?
thanks
Hi. I'm a SQL Server newbie, very experienced with Access, developing an ASP.NET database editor web app. I query the database with a statement more or less in the following form:
SELECT organisation.OrgID, organisation.Name, organisation.whatever FROM services INNER JOIN servicegrouping ON services.serviceID=servicegrouping.serviceID INNER JOIN organisations ON servicegrouping.OrgID = organisations.OrgID WHERE services.service=x OR services.service=y
In other words, I have a database of organisations. The services offered by the organisations are in a separate table, and I only want to return organisations that offer services X or Y.
Okay, now if I did this in Access, this query would return just one record for each organisation that meets the condition, unless I was to include a field from the services table in the SELECT clause, in which case of course I would get one record for each organisation and unique service offered.
But in MS SQL, the query returns duplicate rows if there is more than service offered by the organisation that meets the WHERE condition (=x or =y). Why is this and what do I need to do to my SQL statement to ensure I only get unique rows?
Hi,
I've a query which gets a set of data from multiple tables -
select *
FROM A
inner JOIN q
ON (RIGHT(q.name,CHARINDEX('-',REVERSE(q.name))-1)= a.id)
inner JOIN t
ON (t.id = q.id)
inner JOIN s
ON (q.name = s.name )
inner join l
on (s.name = l.name
and t.name = l.name)
WHERE A.id = 764
and s.name = '764'
I get repeated # of rows for each id. I've some 136 rows for each q.id ( there are 6 q.ids and hence I get 816 rows instead of 136) These 136 rows are actually divided among thse q.ids as
id=5, 4 rows
id=6, 8 rows
id=7, 24 rows
id=8, 40 rows
id=10, 60 rows
total=136 rows
Let me know what I'm missing here
Thanks for your help!
