Is It Possible To Re-reference A Column Alias From A Select Clause In Another Column Of The Same Select Clause?
Jul 20, 2005Example, suppose you have these 2 tables(NOTE: My example is totally different, but I'm simply trying to setupthe a simpler version, so excuse the bad design; not the point here)CarsSold {CarsSoldID int (primary key)MonthID intDealershipID intNumberCarsSold int}Dealership {DealershipID int, (primary key)SalesTax decimal}so you may have many delearships selling cars the same month, and youwanted a report to sum up totals of all dealerships per month.select cs.MonthID,sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) as 'TotalCarsSoldInMonth',sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) * d.SalesTax as 'TotalRevenue'from CarsSold csjoin Dealership d on d.DealershipID = cs.DealershipIDgroup by cs.MonthIDMy question is, is there a way to achieve something like this:select cs.MonthID,sum(cs.NumberCarsSold) as 'TotalCarsSoldInMonth',TotalCarsSoldInMonth * d.SalesTax as 'TotalRevenue'from CarsSold csjoin Dealership d on d.DealershipID = cs.DealershipIDgroup by cs.MonthIDNotice the only difference is the 3rd column in the select. Myparticular query is performing some crazy math and the only way I knowof how to get it to work is to copy and past the logic which isgetting out way out of hand...Thanks,Dave

Return The Results Of A Select Query In A Column Of Another Select Query.
Feb 8, 2008Not sure if this is possible, but maybe. I have a table that contains a bunch of logs.
I'm doing something like SELECT * FROM LOGS. The primary key in this table is LogID.
I have another table that contains error messages. Each LogID could have multiple error messages associated with it. To get the error messages.
When I perform my first select query listed above, I would like one of the columns to be populated with ALL the error messages for that particular LogID (SELECT * FROM ERRORS WHERE LogID = MyLogID).
Any thoughts as to how I could accomplish such a daring feat?
Select Column
Aug 28, 2006Is there a way to select a column number without knowing its name? For example I want to select column 3 of a file without knowing it is:

Jun 29, 2006Here is the code.
SELECT info1.categoria FROM (
SELECT DC2.categoria,count(DC2.ref) as quantidade
FROM Disco_Categoria as DC2
GROUP BY DC2.categoria
) as info1
WHERE info1.quantidade > 2 AND info1.categoria != ALL (
SELECT DC2.categoria FROM Encomenda_Disco as ED2 INNER JOIN Disco_Categoria as DC2
ON ED2.ref=DC2.ref
WHERE ED2.cod = 1 --ED.cod
)
What I'm trying to do is to check if a category doesn't exist for a specific delivery (Encomenda). After reading about the predicated ALL, I decided that it was to be used, but it isn't returning the expected result.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong (since probably I am ;)) but what I'm asking in the code is to compare info1.categoria with all results of DC2.Categoria to check if there is any match, returning true if there isn't any match at all.
It is just not doing it. Can someone please point me at the problem so I can solve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have the following tables.
Code Block
CREATE TABLE [Liga] (
[cod_cliente] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[tronco] [int] NULL ,
[nrtelefone] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
1111 10 89543964
1111 9 32659841

1111 7 25469874
CREATE TABLE [Lista] (
[cod_cliente] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[troncos] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
'1111' '8,10'
For this data what I need to do is return all rows from "Liga" that the value of the column Tronco is in troncos from the table Lista
So for example if I query this data the return would be
1111 8 32569874
1111 10 89543964
And so on...
How can I do that ?

Jun 18, 2007hey everyone, everyone here has been extremely helpful, I'm extremely appreciative. i have another question if anyone has the time.I want to pull the value of one column/row into a string, i know this value to be one int or 1 word under 10 characters. I'd like to be able to use this variable as a conditional, so my if/else statements have information to work off of. I have been using the following format in by code-behind pages to do my SQL insert/update/delete - however I cannot figure out how to SELECT and get those results into a string. I'm new obviously, so dumbed-down explanation would be greatly appreciated!This is what I've used so far for working with my DB:using System;using System.Data;using System.Configuration;using System.Collections;using System.Web;using System.Web.Security;using System.Web.UI;using System.Web.UI.WebControls;using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls; protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { SqlDataSource profilesinsert = new SqlDataSource(); profilesinsert.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ProfilesConnectionString1"].ToString(); profilesinsert.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text; profilesinsert.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO ProfileComments (Approved) VALUES (@Approved)"; profilesinsert.InsertParameters.Add("Approved", "yes"); profilesinsert.Insert(); } The SELECT into a string I'd like to do on page_load, so that I can test that variable upon button click, and have a different value in "Approved" depending on the 1 int or small word result from my SELECT.THANK YOU very much to anyone who offers help! love you guys :)
View 19 Replies View RelatedSelect 'many Values' From One Column
Jul 17, 2007I'm building a textbox with search functionality towards SQL 2000.
The textbox is to include various search phrases, like "phrase1 phrase2 phrase3". Sort of like search engines where all words are considered. Do keep in mind that it's SQL2000 and not 2005. I've got all the strings I want to perform the search against in one column but various values in this column.
The only thing I've come up with is to create "WHERE columnName LIKE @phrase1 OR columnName LIKE @phrase2" where I inject % as apropiate and chop up the string, but I'm hoping this is not the solution because it doesn't seem really clean (with 10 search words) and today I'm not having a 'bad-hack' day so I want it better.
Whats is the best way of doing this?
Cheers!

Dynamically Select Column
Sep 29, 2004Hey all. I'm trying to create a stored proc that will update a variable column, depending on the parameter I pass it. Here's the stored proc:
CREATE PROCEDURE VoteStoredProc
(
@PlayerID int,
@VoteID int,
@BootNumber nvarchar(50)
)
AS
DECLARE @SQLStatement varchar(255)
SET @SQLStatement = 'UPDATE myTable SET '+ @BootNumber+'='+ @VoteID + ' WHERE (PlayerID = '+ @PlayerID +')'
EXEC(@SQLStatement)
GO
I get the following error:
Syntax error converting the nvarchar value 'UPDATE myTable SET Boot3=' to a column of data type int
The update statement is good, because if I use the stored proc below (hard-coded the column), it works fine.
CREATE PROCEDURE VoteStoredProc
(
@PlayerID int,
@VoteID int,
@BootNumber nvarchar(50)
)
AS
UPDATE
myTable
SET
Boot3 = @VoteID
WHERE
PlayerID = @PlayerID
GO
Is there a way to dynamically choose a column/field to select from? Or is my syntax incorrect..?
Thanks!

Select The First Occurance In A Column
Sep 18, 2001I am trying to create a view that shows the first occurance of a particular value in a column.
For example, I have a table that contains multiple part numbers that can be associated with mulitple customers. The first occurance of the part number in the table is associated with the main customer for that part number. I want this view to only show the main customer for each part number.
I am able to do this in Access using the following SQL statement:
SELECT dbo_CustPattMast.PATTERN_NUM, First (dbo_CustPattMast.CUST_NUM)
FROM dbo_CustPattMast
GROUP BY dbo_CustPattMast.PATTERN_NUM
When trying to create the view in the SQL Manager, it will not allow me to use the First statement.
Thanks in advance for your help,

Select Column Value As Title
Feb 13, 2005I have a table that is a very general layout so I can expand upon values later in the future easily. Basically it looks like this:
Code:

2 1 DEX 17
3 1 CON 16
What I'm trying to do is create a stored procedure where I pass in a PlayerID and it will return a result set of
Code:
STR DEX CON
18 17 16
It doesn't appear that there's a way in SQL Server 2000 to SELECT a column AS a variable. I suppose I could go about creating a temporary table, but seems like an odd work around to get it to work. Any suggestions? Or am I just missing something obvious?

View 2 Replies View RelatedConcatinate Value Into New Column Upon Select
Jan 24, 2008Hi,
I'm new to the forum, and semi new to sql, I've been working with
it for about 1 year now, but from a programmers side. I simply
just plug in my selects, and inserts, but most of my work is in
asp.net. I apologize if I have posted in the wrong forum section.
Here is my problem....
I have a table that has the follwing columns..
UserName, question1, question2, Id
question1 and question2 columns simply hold either 'Y' or 'N'
Meaning that the user either answered Y or N for the questions.
I'm trying to create another column on the fly... example....
select *,
[othercolumn] = case question1
when 'Y' then 'question1,'
else ''
end
from mytable
If both questions1 and questions2 have the column value of 'Y', then
the othercolumn should have 'question1,question2' as the end of the above select.
The above example only works for checking for question1, but I will need
to do the same for question2 and concatinate that into the othercolumn column.
I hope, I have explained myself well.
Please let me know if you need more info from me.
