If I return top 25 with an order by, will it get the whole result then take top 25 and order it or will it just return the first 25 it finds and order it. select top 25 c.firstname, c.lastname, o.units, o.partnum
from customer c
inner join orders o
on c.key = o.key
where o.units > 500
order by partnum
Hi!
I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.
The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"
So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?
I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.
Peace.

Lets say I have a table named [Leadership] and I want to select the field 'leadershipName' from the [Leadership] Table.
My query would look something like this:
Select leadershipName
From Leadership
Now, I would like to order the results of this query... but I don't want to simply order them by ASC or DESC. Instead, I need to order them as follows:
Executive Board Members, Delegates, Grievance Chairs, and Negotiators
My question: Can this be done through MS SQL or do I need to add a field to my [Leadership] table named 'leadershipImportance' or something as an integer to denote the level of importance of the position so that I can order on that value ASC or DESC?
Thanks,
Zoop
I'm doing a INSERT...SELECT where I'm dependent on the records SELECT:ed to be in a certain order. This order is enforced through a clustered index on that table - I can see that they are in the proper order by doing just the SELECT part.
However, when I do the INSERT, it doesn't work (nothing is inserted) - can the order of the records from the SELECT part be changed internally on their way to the INSERT part, so to speak?
Actually - it is a view that I'm inserting into, and there's an instead-of-insert trigger on it that does the actual insertions into the base table. I've added a "PRINT" statement to the trigger code and there's just ONE record printed (there should be millions).
I have a Microsoft SQL Server 7.0.I wrote a sql command that creates a temporary table with a ORDER BYclause.When a execute a SELECT on this temporary table sometimes the result isok, but sometimes is not ordered. I didn´t see anything like that. Anyclue?Is there any kind of limits with temporary tables ? Because the commandthat creates the temporary table is working and the rsults is alwaysordered. But when I create a table with it, sometimes the table is notordered.Paulo*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Hi,
This may sound like a dumb question, but I need to be certain of the answer.
If I have a query like this:
INSERT INTO table1
(col1, col2, col3, ... )
SELECT col4, col5, col6, ...
FROM table2
ORDER BY col7, col8, col9, ...
and table1 has an identity column that increments by 1 each time, am I gauranteed that the records inserted into table1 will always be inserted in the order as specified in the ORDER BY clause and hence the increasing identity column in table1 will reflect the same order as that of the ORDER BY clause?
Seems like it should be the case but I need to be sure.
Thanks,
Peter
Hi,
I need to select few items from sql database.I know for ORDER BY, but I need those items to be mixed in random order every time when they are returned from database. Those are the same items every time, just randomly mixed.
Can i do it with SQL, or I have to find another way (e.g. to mix them after sql returns them)?
I am trying to display items from a table that have a type. For each condition there are between 7 and 10 types. I am looping through each type and displaying all items in that type. I am using DISTINCT to pull the types and count them, so I know how many there are and how times to loop. My problem is that DISTINCT is ordering the types alphabetically! I want them in the same order they went into the table. I tried adding ORDER BY primaryID, but got an error that said I also had to select primaryID as well as type, so now I am selecting every item that fits the condition and not just the DISTINCT types! Is there any way to make it order by column_position? I am using SQL 2K.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the following query in SQLExpress:

The query returns always assorted data ignoring the ORDER BY keyword, no matter if the query is invoked directly from Management Studio Express CTP as a View, Table-valued function or called from an Access ADP project. The result is always assorted.¨
Now an interesting thing is that the syntax below returns always an expected order:

I am assigning temporary Ids in my table, and right now I am assigning new ones via find the MAX(Temp_Id), stripping out the number and adding one.
Since these are temporary I would like to be able to reuse older ones when they are no longer in the table.
For example I have:
ID0001
ID0002
ID0003
ID0006
My code right now will add ID0007. I would like to re-use ID0004 and ID0005 since they're no longer in use. How do I go about do this?
Is there a shortcut to spelling out column names when you are doing a select statement?
For instance could you write Select 1, 5, 6 from table where whatever...
I tried this but didn't get any results so if you can I must be using wrong syntax.

select '2003-10-10' union
select '2004-09-09'
--works fine-------------------------------
select convert(varchar, d, 101) dd from #temp1
order by d
-------------------------------------------
--but can't make this work-------------------
select convert(varchar, d, 101) dd from #temp1
union select convert(varchar, d, 101) dd from #temp2
order by dd -- wrong type of sorting
--order by d-- error
--order by cast(dd as datetime) -- error
-------------------------------------------
drop table #temp1
drop table #temp2
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance,

According to BOL, columns in an ORDER BY clause do not have to be in the SELECTcolumn list unless the SELECT includes DISTINCT, or the UNION operator.Is this a SQL Server thing, or SQL standard behavior? That is, if I were to writeabsolutely pure SQL-92, must columns in the ORDER BY clause be present in the SELECTlist?

I need to create a temp table with an identity column based on the contents of a physical table (CONTACTS) that has no key or unique way to identify which record was inserted first,
I can query CONTACTS with no ORDER clause and everything is in the order it was inserted. However, when I create the temp table with a newid() as ID or IDENTITY(1,1) as ID, the duplicate rows as they existsed in the physical table are not inserted into the temp table in the same order.
Is it possible to select records from a physical table into a temp table in the same order while creating a unique field?
Here is how they exist in the physical table:

Hi,
Check this SQL
SELECT DISTINCT
TblOrder.CustomerUID,
TblOrder.OrderHiddenID,
TblPayment.PaymentAmount,
TblPayment.Result,
TblOrder.OrderID
FROM TblOrder
CROSS JOIN TblPayment
WHERE (TblOrder.CustomerUID = @IsCustomerID)
AND (TblOrder.OrderHiddenID = @IsHiddenID)
AND (TblPayment.Result = 'Pending')
AND (TblOrder.OrderID IN (SELECT MAX(TblOrder2.OrderID) FROM TblOrder TblOrder2))
one customer can have more than one orders.
So i need to select customer last inserted order details from database.So when i use above sql i returns null.what might be the reason for this
I have the following records,
MyDate MyId
2003/10/25 2
2003/10/26 3
2003/10/26 1
2003/10/27 3
2003/10/28 2
2003/10/29 4
I want to get the most earlier date distinct records.
I try to use "SELECT DISTINCT MyID from Table;"
I expect to get Myid: 2,3,1,4
But the computer returns Myid:1,2,3,4
Is there a way to get the records using
"SELECT DISTINCT MyID from Table ORDER BY MyDate;"

Hi,
I'm trying to look for an efficient way to select records from two tables, combine them (not just one set above the other) and also efficiently page the results as well as dynamically order by specific columns. So far I have this....
DECLARE @Temp TABLE
(
IDINTNOT NULL,
NameNVARCHAR(128)NOT NULL,
TypeCHAR(1)NOT NULL
)
INSERT INTO @Temp
SELECT i.ID, i.Name, Type = 'I' FROM Item i
UNION
SELECT p.ID, p.Name, Type = 'P'FROM Package p
SELECT * FROM @Temp
ORDER BY Name ASC
I was going to then implement some sort of of ROW_NUMBER like paging and ordering on the @Temp table variable. Problem is there could be potentially 1000's or more Items and Packages and they would all go in this single Temp table before having records 1 to 10 returned. Is there a more efficient way of doing this before I proceed any further?
Many thanks for any help! :)

We are now working with SQL2000sp4, planning migration to SQL2005 in few months though.
I've faced performance issues with large tables (200-500 mln rows, 50-100Gb of data+indexes)
New data are uploaded into tables once a day, around 1mln rows. Thats the only time of inserting data, during daytime tables are used for SELECTs only.
The problem that daily INSERTs are taking too much time now, because of rebuilding few indexes for the table.
I noticed that partitioning solution looks like solving this problem well. So i splitted master data table into 4 tables:
old master table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[DTB] (
[report_date] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL ,
[param] [char] (10) COLLATE Cyrillic_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[param_value1] [decimal](18, 2) NULL ,
[param_value2] [decimal](18, 2) NULL ,
[param_value3] [smallint] NULL
)
CREATE INDEX [IX_DTB_DT_ACC] ON [dbo].[DTB]([report_date], [param])
new partition1:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[be_data_DTB_part_2007_q1] (
[report_date] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL ,
[param] [char] (10) COLLATE Cyrillic_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[param_value1] [decimal](18, 2) NULL ,
[param_value2] [decimal](18, 2) NULL ,
[param_value3] [smallint] NULL ,
CONSTRAINT [CK_be_data_DTB_part_2007_q1_report_date] CHECK ([report_date] >= '2007-Jan-01' and [report_date] <= '2007-Mar-31')
)
CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [idc_be_data_DTB_part_2007_q1_report_date_param] ON [dbo].[be_data_DTB_part_2007_q1]([report_date], [param])
Similar are definitons for other partitions - q2, q3 and q4.
And here is partitioned view itself:
create view dbo.data_DTB
as
select * from dbo.be_data_DTB_part_2007_q1
union all
select * from dbo.be_data_DTB_part_2007_q2
union all
select * from dbo.be_data_DTB_part_2007_q3
union all
select * from dbo.be_data_DTB_part_2007_q4
I want users to access data SELECTing from view data_DTB, while I perform daily inserts right into be_data_DTB_part_2007_q4.
In general, this solution works well. For example:
Code Block
set statistics profile on
go
select * from data_DTB where report_date = '2007-Apr-16'
go
set statistics profile off
go
1290674 1 SELECT * FROM [data_DTB] WHERE [report_date]=@1
1290674 1 |--Concatenation
0 1 |--Filter(WHERE:(STARTUP EXPR(Convert([@1])<='Mar 31 2007 12:00AM' AND Convert([@1])>='Jan 1 2007 12:00AM')))

0 1 |--Filter(WHERE:(STARTUP EXPR(Convert([@1])<='Sep 30 2007 12:00AM' AND Convert([@1])>='Jul 1 2007 12:00AM')))

0 1 |--Filter(WHERE:(STARTUP EXPR(Convert([@1])<='Dec 31 2007 12:00AM' AND Convert([@1])>='Oct 1 2007 12:00AM')))

As far as i see it checks filter parameter fitting CHECK constraint for each partition. Then it peforms clustered index seek for partition actually containing data and avoids using 3 other partitions. Thats great! This example just illustraits that partitioning actually works for me.
Unfortunately, there is another query with just awful performance on partitions comparing to single table. Lets try to get few rows entered last day:
Code Block
set showplan_text on
go
select top 10 * from DTB order by report_date desc
go
set showplan_text off
go
|--Top(10)
|--Bookmark Lookup(BOOKMARK:([Bmk1000]), OBJECT:([MYDB].[dbo].[DTB]))
|--Index Scan(OBJECT:([MYDB].[dbo].[DTB].[IX_DTB_DT_ACC]), ORDERED BACKWARD)
Excellent! It runs just for only few seconds. But using partitions:
Code Block
set showplan_text on
go
select top 10 * from data_DTB order by report_date
go
set showplan_text off
go
|--Top(10)
|--Merge Join(Concatenation)

As one can see that€™s just awful . When I make graphical execution plan with Ctrl+L it says costs for Sort operations are thousands. I didn€™t run this query to check statistics profile, because on our server it will run for hours.
I found a topic regarding this problem: http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1270479&SiteID=17
Mostafa Elhemali describes exactly my problem in the last post. I also though that getting top 10 * from partitioned view shouldn€™t be a problem €“ it€™s quite obvious just to grab top 10 from each partition and then find top 10 amongst them. Looks like it doesn€™t work this way though.
So the question is. Is there any new workarounds for this problem? Or maybe it is already solved in latest patches for SQL2005? I know that SQL2005 introduces new way of partitioning tables, maybe the problem will go if using SQL2005 partitioned tables instead of oldstyle partitioned views?
Thank you.
p.s. Upon reviewing my post i noticed that issued ORDER BY report_date DESC against unpartitioned table, and ORDER BY report_date against partitioned view. Well, specifying ORDER BY report_date DESC for partitioned view gives similar results, except for few ASCs are replaced with DESCs.
This query demonstrates a problem I have run across:
USE AdventureWorks
GO
-- This query works fine.
SELECT DISTINCT FirstName AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName
GO
-- This query also works fine.
SELECT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName
GO
-- This query returns error 145
SELECT DISTINCT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName
GO
The last query returns the error "ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified".
It will work if I change ORDER BY to use "Name1" instead of "FirstName", but in the situation I have at hand, the query is generated by third-party software and I don't have the ability to change it.
Can anyone explain why what's going on here? Oddly, this same query will work if I run it against SQL Server 2000.
Hello.
Hope you are all well and having a good day.
I've got a problem i would like you to help me out with. My
company has got a client who sells meat and my senior tech lead
has customized the cart to fit their needs and have created a
despatch table with a "simple asp form" that allows them
to scan their products in with a wi-fi scanner.
The despatch table has the following fields:
1. OrderID
2. Product
3. Quantit
4. sellbydate
5. traceabilitycode and
6. Weight
Question 1: how do i create a form in asp that allow a user to
view the order no, product and quantity
celibate,traceabilitybycode and Weight after scanning the
details into the simple form created?
Question 2: How can i create an asp form that allows users to
search for the Order that populates the orderid, Product,
quantity?
Question 3: How can i create an asp for that allows users to
search for Product with orderid,traceabilitycode and quantity?
Question 4: How can i create an asp form that allows users to
Trace: Orderid, traceabilitycode, sellbydate and Quantity?
Please find below the source code of both the:
despatchLotsRowsSimpleForm.asp that allow them to scan details
into the table and the despatchLotsExec.asp:

I am working on a query that needs to return the record order number with the most recent requested delivery date.
It seems to work most of the time, but I have found some glitches for some of the items.
example is my item 10702, it is showing 2 records (both valid ones)
Record 1 is order # 10450-0, requested delivery date 03/21/2014
Record 2 is order # 10510-0, requested delivery date 04/29/2014
I need to only get the records with the most recent delivery date, in this example that would be 04/29/2014
This query is what I have so far:
SELECT
s.PriorQuoteNumber
,s.PriorItemNumber
,s.PriorQuoteDate
FROM
(
SELECT
s.SalesQuoteNumberAS 'PriorQuoteNumber'
[code]....
WHERE s.rn = 1What am I missing in my query> how can I change it so it only returns the most recent date?
