View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a report built and I'm trying to figure out how sorting and grouping works. I can group the report by Patient, Albumin and it groups as I would expect.
Patient Date Albumin
Adams, John 01/28/2007 4.1
Adams, John 12/30/2007 3.9

Barker, Mark 01/22/2007 4.1
Barker, Mark 01/05/2007 3.9
However, when I try to group by Albumin, Patient, it just sorts by Albumin.

I need to sort on a column that has a mix of alpha/numeric...

oFavored Sort: A1, A14, A100, A2, A25, A222 …
We've just installed SQL Server 2000 on one of our servers and havenoticed a strange behavior. When clicking the column headings in thejob display in Enterprise Manager, the list is sorted (first clickascending, then descending) on the column clicked except for "Next RunDate." When we click on "Next Run Date," the list is reordered, butrandomly. Each time we click it we get a different order but neverascending or descending. This is true whether we're at the server oron a remote machine. We never saw this behavior with SQL Server 7.0.Any ideas? Thanks!
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi, I have a table whose Identifying column is not an integer but rather a manually entered id. (i.e. 106F, 106-09, G11 etc.) When sorted ascending, a G11 will come before a G2 in the list, 106-11 before 106-2, etc.I would like to insert a new column in the database or use some kind of function when sorting the database to ensure that the list in returned in the proper order. Any ideas?Much appreciated...

can anyone please help on a sql statement that would sort out three kinds of data. let's say i have a column that contains a status flag. there are only 2 possible values, add and delete. now, i want to sort out three kinds of data: add_only, delete_only, and update. Update is the data that contains duplicate records in the table. Which means, there are two rows having same "student_number" but two different status flags. This happens when there's an update or change in data, such as new address or new phone number. The old row/data is sent with status flag of delete, while the updated data is sent with status flag of add. Example below. An output table with a new column of tag is created.

I am trying to sort this simplied table:
ID - Time
1 2000-2001
2 2002-
3 2001-2003
4 1999
5 2005-2006
I want this as a result:
1999
2000-2001
2001-2003
2005-2006
2002-
Because the "-" means "continues", it the thing is still activated, so if it makes it easier, i could put the today's year afterwards during the query, if it ends with a - ...
Now, simply doing a
SELECT * FROM [table] ORDER BY TIME;
Sorts it "perfectly", apart from the "2002-" is just placed before 2005 and after 2001.
So, of course, it fails on all entries with a leading "-" ...
Right when I clicked "submit", of course, I can simply replace all entries with a time ending with "-", with the todays Year, so at least they will get at the end of the query...
Well, have to do a union, first sorting all without the "-", then sorting all with the "-", and that should be it...

Hi All,

Hello,
I have data coming in from two sources, one being SQL and the other being Oracle. The end result needs to be a CSV file with the columns in a specific order. I have a Data Flow task setup that takes both sources and does a Merge Join on them. I can add a Sort Transformation and manually set the sorting of all 156 columns that end up going to a CSV file destination. However, I have a table setup that holds the names of the 156 columns and the order that the CSV file expects them to be in. I would much rather do this step dynamically as the column names and order may change in the future. Anyone who has used the Sort Transformation for a large number of columns knows how tedious it can be and how adding a column in the middle will cause you to change the sort # for each of the columns that come after it.
So I added a Script Component between the Merge Join and the Flat File Destination hoping that I could alter the order of the columns there. However I added the following code and found that the SortKeyPosition is ReadOnly.
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim column As IDTSInputColumn90
For Each column In Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection
column.SortKeyPosition = 1
Next
End Sub
I was hoping to add some code to get the sort index from my table for each of the columns and set it to the SortKeyPosition. Has anyone out there done this before or seen an example that might point me in the right direction? I've searched for 2 days without coming up with much.
Thanks!

I would like to sort the last column which is a dynamic date (always the most recent from the last 7 days) from 0 to 100.
I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.
So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.
Any suggestions would help.
Thanks
SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int. When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end. The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order. The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

Hi,
I have dates in "mmddyy" format coming from the sources and they are older dates of mid 80s like 082580 for instance.
When I cast it this way (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) Source_Date , It says ok but throws a runtime error.
When I hardcode a date in same format, (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) "082580" , It becomes red (an indication of syntax error) . Please note that we use double quotes in expressions in Derived Column Transformation; So an anticipation that using double quotes over single ones would be the syntax problem would be wrong.
Any help in this will sincerely be appreciated.
Thanks

hey 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 :)

I have a column of 5 comma-separated-value strings:
stringA, stringB, stringC, stringD, stringE
The strings are GUID's with the hyphen stripped and made all uppercase so they are completely random. I need to be able to remove any one of the strings including the comma, in a stored procedure and I am not sure how to accomplish this.
SELECT tickets
FROM users
WHERE CONTAINS (tickets, @ticket)
IF @@rowcount > 0
REMOVE STUFF HERE
SET @valid = 1
ELSE
SET @valid = 0
So if stringB gets passed in as @ticket then the new value in the column would be :
stringA, stringC, stringD, stringE
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi All,
I am trying to write a select statement which will concatenate all values of a string column and provide me with a result set containing just one row of data containing a concatenation of all values.
For eg:

result
abcdefghijklmnop

I have access to a database's web front end and a limited amount of access to the server.
I am trying to find out what column a certain string is in.
I can see some text on the front end via the web that a user enters and then submits. This information must go to the back end of the database but I dont know where it goes...
I am able to provide a unique Sequence number that it would be linked with and obviously I have the string that im looking for its column name but other then that I dont know what I can do.
I don't have write access to the database so I am unable to make procedures. I am also not really aware how the front end works or if I would be able to find the script that deals with the text after the user hits "save"...
Good Morning,
I'm trying to write a scrip to compate two columns in two different tables to each other (billing_payee to Debtor_name)
The problem i have is that the info in the billing_payee column is CLIENT RE DEBTOR INITAL SURN and the infor in Debtor_name column is [i]DEBTOR TITLE NAME SURN[i]
What i need to be able to do is select all from Billing_Payee table where the Billing payee [i]DEBTOR INIAL SURN[i] is not the same as the info in Debtor_name.
I somehow need to split out the inial - first letter of debtor name and surname.
If i can't do it this way i need some other way of comaparing the two.
I am fairly new to t-SQL however have a pretty good grasp of it.
Please let me know if there is anything else i can provide to make this any easier any help is much appreciated!!
