I have a large table with a datetime column and rows in 30 second intervals
everyday for about 3 months. What I want to do is
create a select statement that will return only the
datetime between 07:00:00.000 and 15:00:00.000 for
each day. I imagine this is a common issue. How is this done with tSQL?

I am building a data warehouse. I have many columns I want to populate in a fact table using integration services. Sample fields are: companyID, companyName, companyNumberOfAccounts, company, NumberOfUsers.
In the integration services package, I would like to keep this fact table in place and populated with data and to build integration services packages that update each of the existing row's specific columns (e.g. companyNameOfAccounts) one by one. For example, I have a source of data that has companyID and companyNumberOfAccounts data.
Is it possible to use the SQL Server Destination or OLE DB Destination Integration Services elements to import companyID and companyNumberOfAccounts data so that existing records just have their companyNumberOfAccounts column updated?
I need to select specific values from all rows where the value of a specific column is "Active"
This part works: SELECT LastName, FirstName, MiddleInit, ClientId FROM dbo.Client
But I want to add: WHERE StatusType = (Active) and how to do this.
I want to ship 500,000 aged transactions each night to an archive table and delete them from their source table in one or more logical units of work (LUW). Each row is approx 60 bytes and there is only one non clustered index on the source table presently.
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of 3 alternatives. One of them would basically insert the non-aged rows into tempdb, ship the aged records, truncate the table and then insert the tempdb records back into their source all in the same LUW.
For this alternative, I'd at least like to turn off logging when the records get inserted into tempdb as I dont see any value in logging that part of the activity. Is this possible?
Is there a SELECT statement that will return a the column names of a given table?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a sql stored procedure inside this proc it returns some information about the user, i.e location, logged in, last logged in, etc I need to join this on to the photos table and return the photo which has been set as the profile picture, if it hasn't been set then return the first top 1 if that makes sense?
The user has the option to upload photos so there might be no photos for a particular user, which I believe I can fix by using a left join
My photos table is constructed as follows:
CREATE TABLE [User].[User_Photos](
[Id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[UserId] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[PhotoId] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[IsProfilePic] [bit] NULL,
[Code] ....
Currently as it stands the proc runs but it doesn't return a particular user because they have uploaded a photo so I need to some how tweak the above to return null if a photo isn't present which is where I'm stuck.
Hello,
I would like create in a table (A) a column with a formula's data.
In this formula I would like implement 2 fields from a Table (B)
So the formula can be :
[TABLE_B].[FIELD1] + [TABLE_B].[FIELD2]
Is it possible?
We can call 2 fields from a other table?
Thank you
I have several databases to deal with, all with + 250 tables. The databases are not identical and do not conform to a specific naming convention for table names. Most but not all tables have a column called "LastUpdated" containing a date/time (obviously). I'd like to be able to find all rows within a whole database (table by table) where the date/time is greater than a specified date/time.
I'm looking for a reliable query that will return all the rows in each of the tables but without me having to write hundreds of individual scripts "SELECT * FROM [dbo.xyz] WHERE LastUpdated > '2015-01-01 09:00:00:000'", or have to look through each table first to determine which of them has the LastUpdated field.

I am fairly new to transact SQL and I am having difficulty retrieving the set of records I require given the data shown below. I want to be able to filter the records just to return the records that have the minimum securityorder for each unique secsyscode. I suspect I need to use min or group by to achieve the desired affect but cannot seem to get it right
any help would be appreciated
eg in the following
secsyscode, securitytypecode and securityorder are integers and securityCode is a char(16).

Hello, I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on how to do this....I have a table that is a many to many relationship between userID's and courseID's. for instance (example data for each row - dont let the spaces between rows throw you off I am just adding them to seperate the different users)userID = 1, courseID = 1userID = 1, courseID = 2userID = 1, courseID = 3userID = 2, courseID = 1userID = 2, courseID = 3userID = 3, courseID = 1userID = 3, courseID = 2userID = 3, courseID = 3I want to be able to check for a number so in this case "2" which I would like to return all users who do not have a courseID = 2. In the example above the query would return the user with the userID of 2.Any help in how I should go about doing this would be greatly appreciated. Is there a function I can use? I apologize I am extremely new to SQL

I have a table with a user column and other columns. User column id the primary key.
I want to create a copy of the record where the user="user1" and insert that copy in the same table in a new created record. But I want the new record to have a value of "user2" in the user column instead of "user1" since it's a primary key
Thanks.
Hello,Our QA team have running a lot of test scripts (for automated regressiontesting), they run them on the different databases (Oracle/MS SQL).Several of those tests are dependent on the current date/time. In order tobeable to use them efficiently, we changed the current date/time on the QAdatabase server to a specific date/time before starting the scripts, so weare sure the test scripts always run in the same environment.Resetting the date/time of the database server gives us more and moreproblems (OS problems, backup/ virusscan, ...).It is possible to fix the problem with SYSDATE function on Oracle by settingFIXED_DATE init parameter.Is it possible to 'change' the current date/time on 'database' level,instead of on OS level for MSSQL2000?Do you know other means to do such things?Thanks in advance,Konstantin

is there a way to do this in create/alter table without the overhead of a trigger? I want to ensure that one of the 'key' values (even though it may be duplicated) cannot change after it's been inserted.

In MySQL it's simple to insert new columns in specific locations in a table like this
sql Code:
Original
- sql Code
alter table foo add column bar integer not null default 0 after baz
ALTER TABLE foo ADD COLUMN bar integer NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 AFTER baz
But attempting to do the same thing in MSSQL fails with a syntax error on the word "after." I can insert columns in MSSQL but only if they are added to the end. I looked at the Microsoft insert documentation here but don't see any way to replicate the above MySQL command.
Is there any way to do this in MSSQL? Or do I have to completely recreate all my tables from scratch?
Thanks for any help
Is there a command I can use to tell me all the tables in my schema that have a column name "Id"?

I want to write SQL that will search the tables in a database for a specific column, like this. For instance, I have a column "Unique_ID" that is in many of our tables (hundreds) but not in others and want to find out the tables it is in. It is always the first column.
I tried to find a system stored procdure to do this but couldn't and tried to create a script using the sysobjects and syscolumns tables in the Master db, but came to a roadblock because they don't seem to be related at all.
I would surely appreciate if someone else has already done this!
Thanks!
In SQL Server I can select a specific column in from of * like so:

I've been googling around and cannot seem to be able to find a definitive answer.

The 2 digit number that appears on line 1, 7 and 13 (only in this example) i need to have added to the begin of each value below it until the next 2 digit number is encountered. The desired result set would look like:

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a join between two tables where I only want one row returned... I'm matching on two columns between two tables. One of those columns in the target table could be null. I only want one record returned.
create table #vehicle(id int, vehiclemake varchar(10), vehiclemodel varchar(10), classtype varchar(1))
create table #class(id int, classtype varchar(1), value int)
insert into #vehicle values(1, 'AUDI', 'R8', 'A')
insert into #vehicle values(2, 'AUDI', null, 'B')
insert into #class values(1, 'A', 100)
insert into #class values(2, 'B', 1)

Using the above example, if VehicleModel is anything other than 'R8' is specified then I want it to return the other class type record.
This is going to be used as a join within a bigger statement, so I'm not sure ordering and returning top 1 is going to work.

I have created a matrix with multiple rows in the main data cell and a subtotal at the end of the row. The first row in my matrix main cell is just a count of records, whereas the 2nd row is a % of the value in the 1st row compared to the total of that row. I have 5 columns in the matrix as below (only first row is shown plus the total row. Ignore any rounding issues):

I want to set a column to 0 if it is set to a certain number. There are several columns to check though, so I am wondering if I can do it all in one query, or if I have to do it in single queries?
here is an example:
account | contact_id_1 | contact_id_2 | contact_id_3
433 | 67 | 23 | 67
so I want to set any contact_id_N = 0 where contact_id_N is = 67
so in the end, the table will look like this:
account | contact_id_1 | contact_id_2 | contact_id_3
433 | 0 | 23 | 0
is there a way to do it in one statement?
