I am trying to set sorting up on a DataGrid in ASP.NET 2.0. I have it working so that when you click on the column header, it sorts by that column, what I would like to do is set it up so that when you click the column header again it sorts on that field again, but in the opposite direction. I have it working using the following code in the stored procedure: CASE WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' AND @SortOrder = 'ASC' then Convert(sql_variant, FileName) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, Convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), FileDesc)) end ASC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end DESC,
case when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' then convert(sql_variant, convert(varchar(8000), VersionNotes)) end ASC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'DESC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end DESC,
case WHEN @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' and @SortOrder = 'ASC' THEN CONVERT(sql_variant, FileDataID) end ASC And I gotta tell you, that is ugly code, in my opinion. What I am trying to do is something like this: case when @SortColumn = 'Field1' then FileName end,
case when @SortColumn = 'FileDataID' then FileDataID end,
case when @SortColumn = 'Field2' then FileDesc
when @SortColumn = 'VersionNotes' then VersionNotes
end
case when @SortOrder = 'DESC' then DESC
when @SortOrder = 'ASC' then ASC
end and it's not working at all, i get an error saying: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'case' when i put a comma after the end on line 5 i get: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DESC' What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for any help -Madrak

I am trying to order two date columns. One Ascending theother Descending. I am using the Orders table of Northwind in SQLServer. No idea why, but it only sorts on the first column I setcriteria on. I think you have to convert it to date as it gets storedas date/time...I triedSELECT TOP 100 PERCENT OrderID, CustomerID, EmployeeID, OrderDate,CONVERT(char(10), RequiredDate, 103) AS RequiredDate,CONVERT(char(10), ShippedDate, 103) AS ShippedDate, ShipVia,Freight, ShipName, ShipAddress, ShipCity, ShipRegionFROM dbo.OrdersORDER BY RequiredDate, ShippedDate DESCBut odd results occuredAny ideas appreciated

I'm somewhat new to SQL Server and I am having a problem with sorting dates. The 12/1999 dates keep appearing before the 1/2000 dates in a decending sort. The latest service pack is installed.
Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Why doesn' this sp sort by Date_Logged_In
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
go
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[spRMU_CountNoDailyUsers]
AS
SELECT CONVERT(varchar, Log_DateTime, 103) AS Date_Logged_In, Log_Username as Username, COUNT(Log_Username) AS No_Logins
FROM tblUserLog
Where Log_Printed =0
GROUP BY CONVERT(varchar, Log_DateTime, 103) , CONVERT(varchar, Log_DateTime, 103), Log_Username
ORDER BY Date_Logged_In desc, No_Logins desc

My report is ordered by mmm dd, yyyy, which has my Jan 2008 data appearing between my Feb 2008 data and Jun 2007 data. I woudl rather order this by yyyy/mm/dd. Maybe I've missed it somewhere, but I can't find how to do this in any of the documentation I've looked through! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
for some odd reason our other programmer used varchar datatype to store dates. he claims it gives him more control. now i am trying to sort it based on date. so i create a procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE GetAllWeekEnding
AS
Select convert(datetime, we) as we2 FROM tblArchive order by we2
GO
if i use the convert function in the procedure, i'll get an error msg when i run the code. this is the code i am using.
Dim MyConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionStringSQL"))
Dim MyCommand As SqlCommand
MyCommand = New SqlCommand("GetAllWeekEnding", MyConnection)
MyCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
MyConnection.Open()
Dim mydr As SqlDataReader = MyCommand.ExecuteReader()
While mydr.Read()
DropDownList1.Items.Add(mydr("we2"))
End While
mydr.Close()
MyConnection.Close()
the error message is: No accessible overloaded 'ListItemCollection.Add' can be called without a narrowing conversion
any ideas?
I have a filed named 'date'. I convert this into 101 format. Now I want to sort that date by year not by month.
View 12 Replies View RelatedWhen clicking on the header for the Date Created column in EM (SQL Server 2000) , in the tables list for a database, I noticed that the tables don't get sorted by created date at all - looks like random order, without looking too close.
Is this is a bug (probably not??) or some kind of collation-related problem?
I have a set of data with epoch timestamps. Purely for the sake of reporting, I need to pull the last six months of data and group it by month. I have tried searching the googles for epoch/milliseconds to datetime but I only get the MySQL or Oracle results, not MSSQL.

Hi All
I'm Climbing the walls here, does anyone know how to do an interactive sort but keep one of the returned rows pinned at the end of the result set?
i've tried this
=iif(Fields!Item.Value <> "c", 1 ,2) & Fields!Item.Value
Doesn't work to well
Results to Sort
d
e
a
b
c
Sort should return
which works fine on the ascending sort
a
b
d
e
c
with c remaining at the bottom
But i get this on the descending sort
c
a
b
d
e
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Hi everybody!
My users need to sort data on base of columns that they select ,the same as sorting in grid but i need it with reporting services.
Thankas in advance.
I looked around quite a bit but couldn't get around to the issue I've at hand.
I've a matrix report with one row group and one column group. I want to apply interactive sort so that when a user clicks on the column header based on the values in the column the report is rearranged.
The report shows:
Name 02/02/2008 01/31/2008
Test1 15 12
Test2 9 15
Now if the user clicks on 02/02/2008 then it will show
Name 02/02/2008 01/31/2008
Test2 9 15
Test1 15 12
And toggle if clicked again. Hope I'm clear.

Hi,
I have a report with fiive columns, I have implemented interactive column sorting on the report. I have added a group to the report based on Column 2 and there is a page break by group. Now if I am on the second page ( page break by column 2 ) and sort on column 3(there is no grouping on column 3), the sorting happens but after the sort, the first page is displayed.IS there any way to remain on the same page while sorting?
Thanks in Advance.
I've done this before, but i cant remember how.
All i want to do is sort this group in a specific way.
I want them to be in this order:
AME01
ASE01
ACO01
ALU01
AOS01
APH01
ATR01
ATE01
ACR06
ACR05
ACR02
ACR03
ACR08
ACR07
What is the code i would put in the sorting expression, for this to take place?
Hi there,
I'm trying to implement Interactive Soring on the column headers in a matrix in a report. Is it actually possible to do this? I've read several internet posts and stories of implementing the Interactive Sorting in the upper-left corner of the matrix, but this is not what I want, I want to implement it on the column headers .
The goal I'm trying to achieve is to give the user the possibillity to click on a column header to sort the rows below in asc- or descending direction.
Please tell me if this is possible, because all my efforts have not been succesfull! If it's possible, please provide the solution to do this.
If you need more information, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks in advance,

Is it possible to do custom sort for a Column Group?
i.e. if the columns are coming out as A B C, is it possible to change it B C A (or anything else).
I've created an SSRS report in Report builder and I'm displaying it in SharePoint 2010. What I would need to do is to sort according to my totals -column. My report structure is as follows:
The first and column second columns are the ID and the name of a customer. There are over 35.000 consolidated customers in the database.
The third column is the column which I would like my report to be sorted upon. It gives the sum (Amount_EUR) of all different productlines sold to the customer.
The fourth column in this report design model is the product groups sold to that customer. There over twenty of product groups visible when Running the report.
This is what my report looks like when finished (you'd have to scroll a lot to the right if I took the whole of the report so I cut only a part of it to be visible):
I tried to add a sorting option from the reports Tablix properties and adding this code as the sorting function:
=SUM(Fields!Amount_EUR.Value)
But I'm getting an error: "A sort expression for the tablix 'Tablix1' includes an aggregate function. Aggregate functions cannot be used in data row sort expressions."
Ok, so no aggregate functions aren't allowed to the sort.
If I just put:
=Fields!Amount_EUR.Value and sort by that from Z to A(biggest to largest) it doesn't have any effect. The report is still sorted alphabetically by the ParentID.
I've also tried some other code bits, but they all seem to be saying that I couldn't put an aggregate function into the sort expression....but my Total -column is already calculated with a Sum -function....
Is it possible sort my report based on that Total -column? If yes, how? I'm using SSRS 2008
We have a database where the nvarchar columns currently holding English only data. It keeps the training information. Currently the default collation is Latin Case insensitive accent insensitive.
Now we are planning to allow multiple language support. When we go for it, we will upload the data from different languages. Based on user preferences, he/she should be able to query the data (One language at a time).
I am worried on how the existing queries will work if I load all language data in the same database.
For example, some characters in English are used in Norwegian too. But they have different sort order. ALso LIKE conditions too may fail.
So far I thought of few solutions: Add the Collation information along with select , order by clauses. It means we need to add more procedures (one set per collation) The other option is to create new database for each language. Each will have its own collation. The dowside is we need more databases which may lead to more servers and more maintenance work.
As bcp does not allow for the column names to be included; I have developed a method for providing the columns. The end result is that two Tables are required for each output; a "ColumnNames" table and the Table that contains the actual data; however the bcp command is sorting the data; why this is happening?
According to Microsoft, by default bcp will not apply any sorting unless specified.
Here is the command I am using to perform the bcp output: -
SET
@bcpCommand =(select
'bcp "SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.MIS001_BCPColumnNames UNION SELECT * FROM GPReports.dbo.voltemp" queryout '
+ @FilePath+'
-c -t -T')
EXEC
master..xp_cmdshell
@bcpCommand
This is the bcp topic I referred to [URL] ....
I have a table ComponentPeriod. In it we have the combination of a component (e.g. A,B,C ) and a period (2014 Q1, 2014 Q2, 2014 January etc)I want the periods to be in descending order (2015 Q4, 2015 Dec, 2015 Nov, 2015 Oct, 2015 Q3 ... etc) and so I need to create a sequential number series to allow this to happen (as we can only order in the client tools by a single column - and so I guess the technique I'm looking for is used a lot to produce these types of "order by" columns)
I have done this in the past using
Period_Sequence =
calculate
(countrows(Period)
,filter
(Period
, Period[Start_Date] <= earlier(Period[Start_Date])
&& Period[Duration_String] = earlier(Period[Duration_String])
)
)
Which was fine when I was referring to a table where Periods where distinct directly but now I have denormalised this for ComponentPeriod so I need something a little more sophisticated Whats the best way to get a sequence with perhaps some partitions in across a subset of distinct columns (I guess from SUMMARIZE or similar)
E.g. I want
Period_Name, Type, Sequence
2015 Q4, Quarter, 1
2015 Dec, Month, 2
2015 Nov, Month, 3
2015 Oct, Month, 4
2015 Q3, Quarter, 5
2015 Sep, Month, 6
etc
even though there may be multiple records in ComponentPeriod that have the period 2015 Q4, but I want them all to have the value Sequence value of 1? I've got as far as:
Period_Sequence Desc =
calculate
(countrows(summarize(ComponentPeriod, ComponentPeriod[Period_End_Date]))
,filter
( ComponentPeriod
, ComponentPeriod[Period_End_Date] >= earlier(ComponentPeriod[Period_End_Date])
)
)
But this doesn't distinguish between the different types. I need an equivalent of the t-sql -
row_number() over (order by Period_End_Date desc, case when 'P3M' then 1 when 'P1M' then 2 end asc
this data. need help

How to sort table in sql2000 with ipaddress(format x.x.x.x) as column with nvarchar datatype in ascending order
without using stored procedure
Ex:
Table: netComputers(3 rows)
Column Name: ipAddress (string data type)
ipAddress
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.0.1
Sql query : if I use the query
Select ipAddress from netComputers order by cast( replace(ipaddress,'.','') as numeric(12)) asc
Gives result as :
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.1.1.2
0.0.18.1
Where as expected result should be:
ipAddress
0.0.0.1
0.0.18.1
0.1.1.2
I have an SSIS package that moves data from SQL Server to an legacy Access database. In SQL Server, there is a date/time column that I need to split into a separate date column and time column in the access database. Initially I just created a derrived column for the time and set the expression equal to the source date/time column from SQL Server. Unfortunately, that just makes the date column and time column the same having the full date/time.
What expression can I use during a derrived column transformation to assign just the date to a derrived column and just the time to another derrived column?
Thanks,
Steve
