I am not close to an sql server today and this question was posed to me. can someone hook me up?
" I want to query a column of values and place them into a single string seperated by commas" (as a function)
Table a
123
456
789
321
654
987
output
123,456,789,321,654,987
thanks in advance
I have a program which feeds back information to a table within my database. The annoying thing is that only 1 of the table cells has all of the information I need so essentially I have a large string of data I need to retrieve values from.I retrieve my cell with a simple select details from alerts where ID = (alert number).The results I have are as follows:
[INFO] Dashboard Output Information:
[LastUpdated]
Time=09:59
[LastProcessed]
LastProcessed=*2911
Updated=09:59
[LastReceived]
LastReceived=#10
Updated=09:59
As you can see I have a list (its larger but this is a sample), the only thing I need are the values for each section so for last processed i want the 2911 so I can use it on my dashboard and the last received I want the 10 for that section.i have read about using substrings but am really not sure where to start and how I'd go about getting these values to then use elsewhere?
The string column value looks like as below. Each value has a size of 15 withing a string
'2.2020 30 4.0000'
The column value should match with user input as below. The result should show equal when it is compared. Currently, it results not equal since it is a string comparision. The last digit '0' needs to be ignored for decimal values.
'2.202 30 4.0'
I need to handle the decimal values in such a way, if staring value with '.' and last digit is 0 then replace with space ''. So, it should look like
'2 2 2 30 4 ' = '2 2 2 30 4 '
When this string is compared, it results in EQUAL.
I tried the below logic, which even replaces the integer value like 30 to 3 and 3000 to 3 and results in equal which is incorrect.
RTRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(RT1.rate,'''+@DOT+''','''+@S PACE+'''), '''+@ZERO+''', '''+@SPACE+''')) = '''+REPLACE(REPLACE(@Rate,'.',' '), '0', ' ')+''' '
Ex:'2.2020 300 4.00' = '2.20200 30 4.0'
After replace, string looks like
Ex:'2 2 2 3 4 ' = '2 2 2 3 4 '
It results as EQUAL which is incorrect. I need only decimal value to be replaced not integer.
I am looking for a single string replace logic.
i have a report with contains preview of percentage columns example of percentage of student marks in perticular subject like 95%. and if suppose any student not attend any test i have to dispaly like not attended statement.
so i have display two fields like 95% and not attended statement in same column, i given Cstr(Fields!Data.Value), it gives two fields with contains not attended statement of perticular query and it dispalys 0.95 % . but i need 95% and not attended statement for perticular query in same column.
is there any solution for dispalying string and percentage values in single column for given perticular query and those two values are disply same result compare with preview at the time of export to excel sheet
plese send solutions ASAP

Here is some data that will explain what I want to do:
Input Data:
Part ColorCode
A100 123
A100 456
A100 789
B100 456
C100 123
C100 456
Output Data:
Part ColorCode
A100 123;456;789
B100 456
C100 123;456
I have a string variable
string str1="1,2,3,4,5";
I have to use the above comma separated values into a SQL Search query whose datatype is integer. How would i do this Search query in the IN Operator of SQL Server. My query is :
declare @id varchar(50)
set @id= '3,4,6,7'
set @id=(select replace(@id,'''',''))-- in below select query Id is of Integer datatype
select *from ehsservice where id in(@id)
But this query throws following error message:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '3,4,6,7' to data type int.
I have a table that lists math Calculations with "User Friendly Names" that look like the following:
([Sales Units]*[AUR])
([Comp Sales Units]*[Comp AUR])
I need to replace all the "User Friendly Names" with "System Names" in the calculations, i.e., I need "Sales Units" to be replaced with "cSalesUnits", "AUR" replaced with "cAUR", "Comp Sales Units" with "cCompSalesUnits", and "Comp AUR" with "cCompAUR". (It isn't always as easy as removing spaces and added 'c' to the beginning of the string...)
The new formulas need to look like the following:
([cSalesUnits]*[cAUR])
([cCompSalesUnits]*[cCompAUR])
I have created a CTE of all the "Look-up" values, and have tried all kinds of joins, and other functions to achieve this, but so far nothing has quite worked.
How can I accomplish this?
Here is some SQL for set up. There are over 500 formulas that need updating with over 400 different "look up" possibilities, so hard coding something isn't really an option.
DECLARE @Synonyms TABLE
(
UserFriendlyName VARCHAR(128)
, SystemNames VARCHAR(128)
)
INSERT INTO @Synonyms
( UserFriendlyName, SystemNames )

I have SQL Server 2012 SSIS. I have Excel source and OLE DB Destination.I have problem with importing CustomerSales column.CustomerSales values like 1000.00,2000.10,3000.30,NotAvailable.So I have decimal values and nvarchar mixed in on Excel column. This is requirement for solution.However SSIS reads only numeric values correctly and nvarchar values are set as Null. Why?

[CustomeName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[CustomerSales] [nvarchar](50) NULL

Hi,
i am trying to add a single quote to a string. This is a must because i am making a full select statement in which i need the single quote to compare values. Obviously this breaks my string invalidating my query.
ej:
SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value) as valor, FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) as tiempo
FROM TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916AI31_43 tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2
WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = 'Alimentacion Digestores' and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time
group by FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))
and this will become something like this.
SELECT @TableName = 'TESTLAB5.dbo.'+@TableName
SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value), FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) FROM '
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @TableName
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = '@NombreVar'and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time'
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' group by FLOOR(Cast(ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))'
the @NombreVar is the equivalence of 'Alimentacion Digestores'.
is there something i can add or change to make it work ?

Hi,
How to insert a string value with quotes in it in SQL Server?
This is not working:
insert table_name values(`abc`d`)
I tried to put escape in front of `, still failed.
Thanks in advance.

I'm constructing a SQL string that needs single quotes in the WHERE clause. How do I encapsulate them in a string variable. I looked into ESCAPE and SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER, but i don't really see any examples using string Concatenation. I'm trying to filter out the zls (0 length strings)
This doesn't work (all single quotes):
@sqlString = ' SELECT * FROM myTbl '
@sqlString = @sqlString + 'WHERE fld1 <>'' '
Thanks,

I have a table called SEARCHCRITERIA. It consists of a USERID column and a CRITERIA column. Users will be able to search for other users based on a set of criteria. There are 5 total criteria a user can choose. They can choose as few as none or all five. I'd like to store the criteria chosen as a single number in the SEARCHCRITERIA table. Then use a function to parse out the criteria. For example:
CRITERIAID CRITERIA CRITERIAVALUE
1 AGE 2
2 SEX 4
3 GRADE 8
4 LOCALE 16
5 REGION 32
A user performs a search based on AGE, SEX, and LOCALE. I would then store the value 22 (the sum of 2, 4, and 16) in the SEARCH table. I would then need a function to pull out the three individual values.
Has anyone done anything like this before?
If so, any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I have a query set that returns values as part of a data set, I need a new one to return values from two queries to a single row.
select '1' as thekey, 'Total Picks' as Tot,sum(prod_qty) as picks from exceed.aseld, exceed.csymh
where luis_id in ('I','E')
and aseld.whse_id = 1
and (
(aseld.batch_id between goal_beg_batch and goal_end_batch
and monitor_group = 'YK')
[code]....
is it possible to get the numbers from keys 1 & 2 on the same row in a new query?
Or if it is easier a query that with give me (completed picks/total picks) = a decimal I can feed to the display as a percentage.
Can somebody please tell me whether the following syntax is supportedor whether it's a "feature" that will someday stop working. It works inboth SQL Server 2000 and 2005 at the moment.declare @var varchar(1000)set @var = ''select @var = @var + colx from some_table where col1 = some_valuecolx is a varchar or at least is cast to one as part of the selectstatement. If the where clause would normally return more than one row,all returned values for colx are concatenated into @var.I've not seen this syntax before but that doesn't make it wrong ;-)Malc.

I'm a real novice user and I we use SQL Server. I have a table called TableLog that has the 4 columns. The first column is repeated x number of times for each value in the second column. I'd like to see this information put into a matrix where I could tell if there are any missing intersections. In addition, I need to insert a WHERE clause that says "BETWEEN 20090000 AND 20100000" for the first and second columns.
Example data in the table:
ID1 ID2 MRSSI
100 200 63
100 300 63
200 100 63
200 300 63
300 100 63
Desired matrix: P = Pass and F = Fail
100 200 300
100 n/a P P
200 P n/a P
300 P F P
From the example data, there's no intersection for 300 and 200 so a F is displayed.
Hi, I have a difficult case that I need to solve. I will try to be the very clear explaining my problem:
I have a sql query which brings me many records.
This records have a column in common which have the same value (COL1)
There is a second column (COL2) which has different values bewteen these records.
I need to concatenate values from the second column in records with same value in COL1. And I need only one record of the ones that have the same values. If two records have the same COL1 value, only one row should be in my result.
Let me give you an example:
COL1 COL2
RECORD1 1-A HHH
RECORD2 1-A GGG
RECORD3 1-B LLL
RECORD4 1-B MMM
RECORD4 1-B OOO
RECORD5 1-C NNN
Me result should be:
COL1 COL2
RECORD 1-A HHHGGG
RECORD 1-B LLLMMMOOO
RECORD 1-C NNN
It is clear what I need? I dont know if I can solve it through sql or any function inside SSIS.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
The recipe preparation instructions are stored in a table by RecipeID. The prep instructions are in a single VARCHAR(MAX) column and look something like this:
1. Boil Water
2. Add noodles
3. Add cheese sauce
4. Stir well
Now they want this single VARCHAR(Max) column broken into 2 columns - Step and Prep Instruction like this: Boil WaterAdd noodlesAdd cheese sauceStir well.I figure I can use the appearance of a number followed by a period and a space to determine the existence of a new row. How would I accomplish this in T-SQL?
