Search Multipe Fields, Compounding Fields, Like, Contains...?

Jul 20, 2005

I would like to search a table for a phrase, or for a partial phrase,
eg on table product - for name or description, or name + descprition.

How does one say select * from product where name + description like
%phrase%
or contains phrase

Currently I can get where name, or where descriotion like %phrase%,
eg, where name like krups, or where description like coffee maker

But if I search for where name like %krups coffee maker% i get no
results. krups is in the name field, coffee maker is in the
description field.

Thanks,
-M

Search Query Through 3 Different Fields?

Dec 12, 2014

I have 2 tables.

Clients
Contacts (multiple contacts for one client)

I'm trying to do a search that pulls a contacts where the search matches either the First Name, last Name or the clients name. If it does return clients, I'd like it to also return all the contacts associated with it.

I have two problems:

1. The query is not bringing up a lot of clients. In many cases a letter brings nothing back. Like G and H even though A and B return results.

2. If it finds a client it only returns one contact. I'd like it to return all contacts for the client.

Here's my query:

SELECT addressbook.clientid, clients.clientname, addressbook.addressid, addressbook.fname, addressbook.lname FROM clients, addressbook where clients.clientid = addressbook.addressid
AND (addressbook.fname LIKE
'".strtoupper($_GET['txtsearch'])."%' OR addressbook.lname LIKE
'".strtoupper($_GET['txtsearch'])."%' OR clients.clientname LIKE
'" . strtoupper($_GET['txtsearch'])."%')

Subreports: Parameter Value Dropdown Shows Sum And Count Fields But Not The Actual Data Fields.

Jan 28, 2008


I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.

I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.

For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.

When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.

Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Sirisha

Search Query Among All Fields In A Table

Jul 14, 2005

I apologize for the newbie sort of question, but I could not find an answer in an SQL book nor via Google.

I wish to search for a text string in ALL fields of a table. This will be used to provide a simple search box in a web application.

So far, the only method I've found to accomplish this is follows:


SELECT *
FROM Inventory
WHERE SerialNumber LIKE '%searchstring%' OR UserName LIKE '%searchstring%' OR Location LIKE '%searchstring%' ... etc


My goal is to accomplish something like the following. This, of course, does not execute properly since * can only be used following SELECT, but you can get an idea of the target behavior:


SELECT *
FROM Inventory
WHERE * LIKE '%searchstring%'


I'm using MSDE with Visual Basic .Net. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Thanks for all help,
Kieran

Transact SQL :: Get One Row From Multiple Based On Fields And Also Get Sum Of Decimal Fields?

Jul 2, 2015

I am using MS SQL 2012.  I have a table that contains all the data that I need, but I need to summarize the data and also add up decimal fields while at it.  Then I need a total of those added decimal fields. My data is like this:

I have Providers, a unique ID that Providers will have multiples of, and then decimal fields. Here are my fields:

ID, provider_name, uniq_id, total_spent, total_earned

Here is sample data:

1, Harbor, A07B8, 500.00, 1200.00
2, Harbor, A07B8, 400.00, 800.00
3, Harbor, B01C8, 600.00, 700.00
4, Harbor, B01C8, 300.00, 1100,00
5, LifeLine, L01D8, 700.00, 1300.00
6, LifeLine, L01D8, 200.00, 800.00

I need the results to be just 3 lines:

Harbor, A07B8, 900.00, 2000.00
Harbor, B01C8, 900.00, 1800.00
LifeLine, L01D8, 900.00, 2100.00

But then I would need the totals for the Provider, so:

Harbor, 1800.00, 3800.00

Update Fields With Data From Other Fields In Same Row

Jun 30, 2000

Pardon me if this question is too elementary. I am trying to create a trigger that will cause certain datafields to be updated with values from other data fields in the same row when a certain column, created specifically to fire the trigger, is updated. The purpose of this is to reduce data entry by field personnel.I think I have the create trigger statement correct, but I'm a little confused on the update statement.

In a nutshell, how can I write something like:
UPDATE "TABLENAME"
SET DATAFIELD1 = DATAFIELD2
WHERE RECORDNUMBER = (THE SAME RECORD NUMBER)

I do know that I have to ensure that sp_dboption Recursive Triggers value is set to false, thanks.

Using LIKE To Find Any Of Fields In One Table In Fields Of Another

Jul 31, 2013

I have a list of items in one table and a field (pageName) in another table that may contain one of the aforementioned items somewhere within that field. There is no fixed position within the field where the itemNo may be so I can't just use SUBSTRING(pageName,2,5) in(select itemNo from tblItem).

Logically, it's like I need to combine IN and LIKE: select pageName where pageName LIKE IN %select itemNo from tblitemNo%..LIKE can only handle one comparison string.

Drillthrough In Calculated Fields Enable When Drillthrough Option Is Disable In Original Fields, Is This A BUG?

Jan 21, 2008

Hi people
My users are having troubles with link to default drillthrough report when reports are exported to excel (they REALLY don't like this behavior ), so I decided set all of them disabled in report model, this work fine, but calculated field in reports has this drillthrough link.


Let me show you the situation. Entity Product has an UnitaryCost field, I set the EnableDrillthrough Property in False so when I export a report with this field, no link is shown.

But if I create in the report a calculated field Round(UnitaryCost) this field has a Drillthrough Link

Is this the standard and expected behavior? or its simply a BUG?

Have I done something wrong in my model? and in this case, How I can correct this?

regards.
Julio Diaz.

Adding A Full Text Search Across Multiple Tables (with Text Fields)

Sep 7, 2007

Hi, i'm trying to do a full text search on my site to add a weighting score to my results.  I have the following database structure:
Documents: - DocumentID (int, PK) - Title (varchar) - Content (text) - CategoryID (int, FK)
Categories: - CategoryID (int, PK) - CategoryName (varchar)
I need to create a full text index which searches the Title, Content and CategoryName fields.  I figured since i needed to search the CategoryName field i would create an indexed view.  I tried to execute the following query:
CREATE VIEW vw_DocumentsWITH SCHEMABINDING ASSELECT dbo.Documents.DocumentID, dbo.Documents.Title, dbo.Documents.[Content], dbo.Documents.CategoryID, dbo.Categories.CategoryNameFROM dbo.Categories INNER JOIN dbo.Documents ON dbo.Categories.CategoryID = dbo.Documents.CategoryID
GOCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX vw_DocumentsIndexON vw_Documents(DocumentID)
But this gave me the error:
Cannot create index on view 'dbname.dbo.vw_Documents'. It contains text, ntext, image or xml columns.
I tried converting the Content to a varchar(max) within my view but it still didn't like.
Appreciate if someone can tell me how this can be done as surely what i'm trying to do is not ground breaking.

Fields

Hi!
I used MS Access database! I need to know what are the replications of MS Access fields in MS SQL Server?!
1) What is TEXT field of MS Access in MS SQL Server?!
2) What is MEMO field of MS Access in MS SQL Server?!
3) How to set AutoNumber in MS SQL Server?!
I get confused because my online web based sql admin of my host had many options like varchar...
3) Please tell me the size of the fields too as i will be storing a large amount of data!
4) In MS Access there was field size like...60...! But in MS SQL Server there was 16 written next to the TEXT field! What is it? some Bytes?!

Trying To Sum Fields

Feb 15, 2008

Hi,

I'm very rusty on SQL, if someone could help I'd appreciate it! It's probably very easy to solve!

Ok, I have a table called results which contains results of a survey where users rated features on a scale of 1 to 7. For example I have:

results(id, feature1, feature2, feature3, feature4, feature5)

sample data

1, 5, 4, 3, 2, 6

So, I want to create a view which will summarise total points given i.e. sum of feature1 -feature5. How do I do this? Do I need a function or is there a built-in function? All I can find is info on aggregate functions... but I want it per row...

Thanks,

Key Fields

Oct 14, 2005

Edit: the question is more clear in http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?p=4477661&posted=1#post4477661

OK this question is not really SQL server related but since we will build the database in MS SQL Server (2000) i think this is the proper forum to ask this question.

It's actually a quite simple question i gues, but my experience with databases is very limited (buiding my first serious database actually).

when i have two tables Organization and Samples coming from this organization with the following fields:



Organization:

InstituteID (identification)
Name
Adress
...

Sample:

SampleID (sample identification)
InstituteID (references to the Institute table)
SampleDate
Location
...



In general is it better to use the sampleID and InstituteID combined as primary key in the second (sample) table (and build an index on the combined key) or to generate a new unique key for each record? And why should i choose either one of these options?

One advantage of the first option is you dont have to generate keys yourself (or use some autonumbering system), however the disadvantage is the key grows bigger and bigger when adding more tables (fraction taken from samples, analysis performed on fractions, Analysis giving results).

Where Did The Fields Go?

Dec 28, 2006

Using Visual Studio 2003 and an ODBC connection to an Oracle 7 database I created a dataset with the following query:

SELECT ITEM, REV,QTY FROM MYDB.CONTRACT
WHERE CON_NUM = 'CONTRACT_NUMBER'

All is well until I change the contract_number to a parameter using either ? or a named parameter. Report users will choose the parameter value from a drop down list generated by another query. Although the parameterized query will still run via a prompt dialog, the report field list disappears and many errors occur.

Does anyone know why this happens to the fields and how to retrieve them?

Thanks,

PH

BTW: ODBC connections seem to be the only type that will accept parameter queries to this version of Oracle.

Identity Fields - Why Use Them

May 29, 2007

I am building a database for a new project. I am not a DBA or a database designer so please bear with me on this question.
My boss believes that the only time to use an identity column is when we cannot determine a unique primary key.  On tables where we can determine a unique primary key identify fields are a waste of reasources. For instance, one of the tables that I need to create is a customer table. Since all of our customers have unique customer numbers my boss believes that in this case an identity column is useless.   I don't have enough experience to determine if he is correct or not.  
Can someone please explain the pro's and con's of using identity fields to me. 
Thanks
