How To Select A Specific Value From Dataset To Fill A Specific Cell ?

Mar 27, 2007

Hi there !

Thanks for taking the time to read this thread.

I don't know whether anyone has this problem, but I am definitely not using the right keywords to search for a thread.

My situation is this...

I have a dataset that has values to fill cells to multiple tables in a report.
However, I only want to select specific data from the dataset to fill textboxes and others.
I cannot change the stored procedure, but the sample of the data is shown below:-


Row Stat Val
0 dtRpt1 02/01/2005
1 Value1 1
2 Value2 2000
3 dtMailSent 02/28/2005
4 Value3 0
5 Value4 5
6 Value5 658

I know it looks weird, but the row really represents which "row" or textbox is it to fill with the Val. The Stat Column is just a way to make sure that I am filling the right values.

so my new report would have multiple tables to denote different categories.
In my first table, I tried putting the cells as follows:-
(expressions are highlighted in italics and bold)

TextBox1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =0, Fields!Val.Value,"")

Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =1, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =2, Fields!Val.Value,"")


Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =3, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow2 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =4, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow3 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =5, Fields!Val.Value,"")
DetailRow4 =IIF(Fields!Row.Value =6, Fields!Val.Value,"")


I only expect this report to print out one page holding the previous values.

However, it ended up printing like this

----------------------------------------------------------

Table1
Column1
DetailRow1 1
DetailRow2

Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 2000


Table2
Column1
DetailRow1 02/28/2005
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4

Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2 0
DetailRow3
DetailRow4

Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3 5
DetailRow4

Table2
Column1
DetailRow1
DetailRow2
DetailRow3
DetailRow4 658

------------------------------------------------------

I tried putting it into the headerrows instead of DetailRows, and it ended up printing the last value.
Is there anyway to do this ? print all the values out in one table ? I tried using textboxes, but I think I got my expression wrong.

Is this the correct expression ?

=IIF((Fields!Row.Value,"Dataset") =1, (Fields!Val.value, "Dataset"), "")

and it give me an error
The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox5€™ contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'FalsePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.

Appreciate any advice or suggestion for this scenario !

Thanks!

Specific Invalid Character Value For Cast Specification Problem

May 25, 2007

Hi, I'm a new DBA and am a rookie when it comes to working with SQL Server 2005. I have been tasked with transfering an Access database to SQL Server 2005. Now I understand to use the import/export wizard, but am having problems fixing an error I am receiving. Here is the error...


Problem I
- Copying to [IS_Shared_ServicesTest].[dbo].[tblResource] (Error)
Messages
* Error 0xc0202009: Data Flow Task: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Invalid character value for cast specification".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

* Error 0xc020901c: Data Flow Task: There was an error with input column "Contract Start Date" (115) on input "Destination Input" (80). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

Here is the short version of the error. I realize that there is an error with the conversion and the error is in tblResource in column Contract Start Date. It is still transfering the column over, and on spot check they seem fine. Should I be really worried about an error? Or is there something that I can do with the Access or SQL server database to fix this?

Select Max If Value Of Specific Field Is Y

May 15, 2014

I need to check if the latest record in a table for the current client, based on EFFECTIVE_DATE, has a value of 'Y' in the STATUS field. Sample records for client #19:

CLIENTEFFECTIVE_DATESTATUS
------ -------------- ------
19 08/13/2010Y
1901/10/2013N
1902/03/2014Y

If I run:
SELECT CLIENT, max(EFFECTIVE_DATE), STATUS
FROM FTABLE GROUP BY CLIENT, STATUS

I get the two latest records since STATUS is different:

CLIENTEFFECTIVE_DATESTATUS
------ -------------- ------
1901/10/2013N
1902/03/2014Y

I wrote the following and it works, but it may be causing 'Insufficient Disk Space' error from the database. Is there any way to write this query without temp table?

DECLARE @TEMPMAX

TABLE (CLIENT INT, EDATE DATE)
INSERT INTO @TEMPMAX (CLIENT, EDATE)
SELECT CLIENT_NO, max(EFFECTIVE_DATE)

[Code] ....

CLIENTEFFECTIVE_DATESTATUS
------ -------------- ------
1902/03/2014Y

Select A Specific Number Of Rows

Aug 25, 2005

I am working on a multi-page datagrid that pulls data from a database. The issue I am running into is the SQL select query. What I have is a table to 55 items. What I need to do is grab the first 35 of those items and bind the resulting DataReader to the grid, print the page, then grab the remaining 20 items, bind to the grid and print the page.

I can use "SELECT TOP 35 FROM Table" to get the first 35 items, but I don't know how to get the remaining 20 items. Is there a way to say something like "SELECT TOP 20 FROM Table" but specify only the rows that begin after row 35?

I tried doing this with an ArrayList but couldn't bind it to the DataGrid.

Any suggestions?

Select Specific Number Of Records

Jul 20, 2005

Dear GroupI wonder whether you can give me a syntax example for a SQL Statement.Lets assume I've a table containing three columns ContactID (Primary Key),Firstname and Lastname.I would like to write a stored procedure which returns me the first tenrecords and increments an outside variable each time it runs.E.g If I run it the first time I pass the variable as 0 and it will returnme the first ten records and returns the variable value 1.When run a second time, I will pass the variable as 1 and it will return merecords 11-20 and sets the variable to 2 and so on...The difficult thing is how to tell to return me records 11-20. I can't usethe ContactID as someone might have deleted a row and e.g. ContactID 18 ismissing. In this case I only would get 9 rows returned. It always should beten.Thanks very much for your time and efforts!Kind Regards,Martin"There are 10 types of people in this world: Those that understand binaryarithmetic, and those that don't."

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Select Only Rows With Alphabetical Character In Column?

Apr 17, 2014

i am working on a small project, that I have found that someone is storing a float as a varchar(). But there are also some actual words in the same column.

I am trying to determine how I can select only the rows with alphabetical characters in that column.

Some of the data is:

1.5008e+015
1.54453e+015
1.51922e+015
1.51922e+015
1.52243e+015

but there is a mix of alphabetical characters in there as well.

1.51922e+015
1.53122e+015
FMCIT
ABCNP

I want to be able to select the rows with only the alphabetical characters. There is a huge mix, and I am assuming that every first letter is one of the 26 alphabetical character used. How can I write a query to use a REGEX to select any and all rows that cannot be CAST as a Float? I have nill to no experience using REGEX.

Transact SQL :: Select Unique From Table If Specific Value Does Not Exists

Jul 31, 2015

I have a table that has for each shop a value that can change over time.For example

BK_POS 1 --> Segment A
BK_POS 1 --> Segment /

What I would like to achieve is to get all distinct Shops (BK_POS) from the table above, but if for that specific pos a row exists where the segment = "/" then I do not want to take this BK_POS in my select query.More concrete, the for example above I do not want to select BK_POS 1 because he has one row where the segment = "/".

Character To Numeric Conversion Error- Select Statment On Char Column

Sep 18, 2007

Hi guys/ladies I'm still having some trouble formatting a select statement correctly.
I am using a sqldatasource control on an aspx page. It is connecting via odbc string to an Informix database.
Here is my select statement cut down to the most basic elements.
SELECT     commentFROM         informix.ipr_stucomWHERE     (comment > 70)
The column "comment" contains student grades ranging from 0-100 and the letters I, EE, P, F, etc. Therefore the column is of a char type. This is a problem because I cannot run the above statement without hitting an alpha record and getting the following error
"Character to numeric conversion error"
How can I write this statement where it will work in the datasource control and have it only look at numeric values and skip the alpha values?
I have tried case with cast and isnumeric... I don't think that I have the formating correct.
I have also used:
WHERE (NOT (comment = '  I' OR comment = ' EE' OR comment = ' NG' OR comment = ' WP' OR comment = ' WF' OR comment = '  P' OR comment = '  F'))
This works but is very clunky and could possibly break if other letters are input in the future. There has to be a better way.I am sorry for my ignorance and thanks again for your help.

I get error message after I write this code:

As you can see from the below code, How do I select July from times_held_in_July?

SELECTevent_name,
DATENAME (MONTH, show_held) AS times_held_in_July
FROMevent,

WHEREevent.show_id = show.show_id

Result:

event_name times_held_in_July

SELECTevent_name,
DATENAME (MONTH, show_held) AS times_held_in_July
FROMevent,
show
WHEREevent.show_id = show.show_id
ANDshow.show_held = '&July&'
