I receive a file that will have hyphens between data items such as
123-aed-edr-45r-ui9
1-ed3-45r-rrr-98u
I need to split the values to load into a table that will hold the 5 separate data itens. The fields will always have the hyphens but could be different lengths. Any idea on a best approach to split this in tsql
If you see below there are 2 customer names on 1 loan, most of them share the same lastname and address, I want to separate it with fields,LoanID, customer 1 Firstname, Customer 1 Lastname, Customer 2 FirstName, Customer 2 Lastname, Adddress,zip

LEFT JOIN Borrower B on B.LoanID = L.LoanID
LEFT JOIN MailingAddress MA on MA.LoanID = L.LoanID
where S.PrimStat = '1' and B.Deceased = '0'
I recieved a SQL Server table that was supposed to have just the firstname in a field, but actually has firstname and middle name.

Is there a way in a query to look for the blank space and separate the names?
I have 1 table that is just a list of feeds. A, B, C, D etc (15 rows in total) and each feed has other information attached to it such as Full name, location etc etc. I am only interested in the Feed column.
Each feed then has a corresponding data table which contains a list of records. Eg Feed A data is contained in TableA, Feed B data is contains in TableB and so on.
Basically what I need is a combined table that shows the list of Feeds in the 1st Column ( So A, B, C, D…..) and then a second column which counts the records from each separate data table corresponding to that feed.
So the end result would look something like this:
Feed------No of Records
A----------4 (from TableA)
B----------7 (from TableB)
C----------8 (from TableC)
D----------1 (from TableD)
Possible?

One of the fields has data seperated by a comma. I need to be able to grap the data for each record and split those items into their own table in seperate rows. This is easy in Asp but the page will timeout before it can process all the records.

hi,
I am trying to split a text field .
what I want to do is -
split a text field and insert chars 1 to 8 in one field and then from 9 to 20 in another and so on.
Can someone help me in solving this.
TIA.
PD
I am reading in data from a legacy system where name data is in one field. The single field includes last name, first name, middle initial(sometimes), and suffix(sometimes).
Due to the optional components it is a bear. I am using a fuzzy lookup on the suffix and derived columns for the first, last, and middle initial. The first name and suffix work, but I'm having trouble with the last and middle initial. The following is the formula I'm using for both. The first name formula is causing an error, and the middle initial is only populating if the suffix exists. If anyone has insight, it is appreciated.
FirstName:
TRIM(SUBSTRING([ARPNAME-T],FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) + 1,FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",2) - FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) + 1))
MiddleInitial:
SUBSTRING(TRIM([ARPNAME-T]),FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",2) + 1,(LEN(TRIM([ARPNAME-T])) - FINDSTRING([ARPNAME-T]," ",1) - LEN(PSUFFIX)))
I am able to use the following SQL Statement in Access, but when I try to use it in a View or Stored Procedure for SQL Server 2000, it says the function InStr is not a valid function. Would someone be able to assist me with modifying this query to work in SQL Server 2000. This is Spliting a field called EName into two fields called FName and LName.
SELECT EmployeeID, CountryCode, Branch, SSN, Title, HireDate, Status,
RIGHT(EName, LEN(EName) - InStr(EName, [, ]) - 1) AS FName, LEFT(EName, InStr(EName, [, ]) - 1)
AS LName

I have a field which looks like "LastName, FirstName (DOB: 01/01/1900)"
How do I get the "01/01/1900" between ":" and ")"
have a field in a table that has combined lastname,firstname and middle name like
combs,albert mike
woods-athere,jane alice
The last and first name are separated by a comma, and the middle name by a space
I need in tsql to split them to last name,first name and middle name
I used below
select substring (longname, 1, patindex( '%,%' , longname) -1 ) 'firstname',
substring (longname, patindex( '%,%', longname) + 1, len(longname)) 'lastname',
substring (longname, patindex( '% %', longname) + 1, len(longname)) 'middlename'
FROM Demographic_staging
I get the names all split, but I get the middle name with the first name. How can I limit the first name to recoginze the comma, but stop at the space

Hi ,
I've a DateTime field in a table and I want to separate it into two fields in an SQL Server 2005 view one for Date and the other for Time so What is the function I can use to do this process?
Best Regards,
I have 2 tables:
TransactionsImport (which is the destination table)
TransactionsImportDelta
I need to do the following:
Get the records with the latest date and time in the destination table TransactionsImport
Get the records with the latest date and time in the destination table TransactionsImportDelta table
Insert the records from the TransactionsImportDelta table into TransactionsImport that have a greater date & time than the current records in TransactionsImport table.
Problem is date & time are in separate columns:
Table structure:
Date Time ID

Hey gang,
I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query')
I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling.
Here's my current Query this works fine:
Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum
From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo
Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#')
What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note.
I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi everyone,
I have a sql quey that selectes phoneNumbers from the database. Problem is some phone numbers have hypens in it and some doesn't. Is there any way in sql so that I can remove hyphens from the phone numbers
some numbers are like this
213-456-9999
and some are
2136789999
Please let me know if this is possible.
Thanks.
Hi,I'm having trouble running the following query:select * from message where text_body like ' ----------%'ie, five spaces followed by at least ten hyphens. The query doesn'tcomplete, so eventually I cancel it. If I remove the hyphens from thequery ("... like ' %'") then it runs fine (though it doesn't findthe correct data).Am I confusing SQL Server by using a wildcard or regular expression?(I'm using SQL Server 2000 - 8.99.760).Thanks in advance for any helpRichard

Current Query is as follows:

This query was working well because I used to only be interested in one counter that was returned in the column, which was 'Free Megabytes'...I now have additional data that shows up as 'Total Disk Space'...Ideally, the query would return the total disk space next to the free megabytes on the same row for the same disk drive.

Hello and thanks in advance to any and all help on this post!
I am trying to create a report that uses a simple select against one table in the database:
select a,b,c
from MyTable
where d = 1
order by a
For ease of explanation, this returns 75 records. This report is to be used as a one page Flyer. Now I can create a single table and format it but I end up with three pages instead of one. My thought was to split the data returned between two side by side tables on this report. I cannot seem to find a way to do this through the properties of each table or an example of any expression that could help with this outside of RowCount (which simply does a page break), nested SELECTs to emulate LIMIT as in MySQL, or SELECT TOP n ORDER BY ASC / DESC to get a TOP N or BOTTOM N from a SQL Query.
I know I can't be the only one to have ever thought of this as a solution, I hope not at least , so I was hoping someone here may be able to help out. Thanks again in advance!
One table is like this
CREATE TABLE p1
(SNo VARCHAR(30))
And Data in the Table p1 is:
Sno
1,0
12,0
1,20
100,21
1001,21
There is One more Table p2
CREATE TABLE p2
(TravelerID INT, GDId INT)
Now my Requirement is Left side part of SNo(Before comma) Whatever the data is there like 1,12,1,100,1001
will be pushed into p2 table of TravelerID Column.And Right side part (Data like 0,0,0,21,21) will be pushed into p2 table of
GDId Column.Ultimately Table should look like below format.
TravelerID
GDId

0
12

20

It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.
I'm trying to create some records for a data table (Table1) based on values in another table (Table2).
Table1 has the simple structure of
ID (INT), PolicyID (INT) (this is a foreign key linked to a Policies table), Premium (FLOAT), StartDate (DATETIME), EndDate (DATETIME)
Here is the structure and some example data from Table2
- PremID - PolicyID - Year - Prem01 - Prem02 - Prem03 - Prem04 - Prem05 - Prem06 - Prem07 - Prem08 - Prem09 - Prem10 - Prem11 - Prem12 -
- 000001 - 00000001 - 2013 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 100.00 - 130.00 - 130.00 - 130.00 -
- 000002 - 00000001 - 2014 - 130.00 - 130.00 - 130.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 - 140.00 -
PremID is just the PrimaryKey. Then there's the year, and then a load of float fields, each representing a premium paid for each month of the year (01=Jan, 02=Feb etc).
Now what I am looking to achieve is to create separate rows for Table1 from this data.
Starting in January (Prem01), I wish to record a separate line each time the premium amount changes. The best way of exlaining this is to give an example based on the above data.
For the first row (2013), the premium at the start of the year (Prem01) is 100.00. This premium remains until it changes in Prem10 to 130.00. It then remains 130.00 for the rest of the year (Prem10 to Prem12). For this I would want to create 2 rows of data for Table1. The result should look like below.
- ID - PolicyID - Premium - StartDate - EndDate -
- 000001 - 00000001 - 100.00 - 01-Jan-2013 - 30-Sep-2013 -
- 000002 - 00000001 - 130.00 - 01-Oct-2013 - 31-Dec-2013 -
I'd then repeat this for each record in Table2, so based on the 2 lines I have shown above, the end result would be:
- ID - PolicyID - Premium - StartDate - EndDate -
- 000001 - 00000001 - 100.00 - 01-Jan-2013 - 30-Sep-2013 -
- 000002 - 00000001 - 130.00 - 01-Oct-2013 - 31-Dec-2013 -
- 000003 - 00000001 - 130.00 - 01-Jan-2013 - 31-Mar-2014 -
- 000004 - 00000001 - 140.00 - 01-Apr-2013 - 31-Dec-2014 -
The source data is inherited from another system which I'm trying to change the layout of how the data is recorded to fit in with the target database.
Would it be easier to create a view of some sort from Table2, then use some form of WHILE LOOP to do this?
Hi
I have a table which has data "dumped" into it nightly and i need to create a "clean" table. Below are some sample rows:
1|name1|john|1234
2|name2|fred|2378
DS|address1|address2|postcode|telephoneno|area|propertytype
all the columns are separated with a "|" but the amount of columns are not fixed, so in lines 1 & 2 they are 4 columns and in line 3 there is 7 columns
thanks in advanced

Hi!
Need help with this one:
I have a column with a string composed by several data. After using REPLACE several times, I get something like the data below, which has (in most of cases) a value and a date.
378 9/05
388 9/05
4/05
1/06 606
1/06 646
76 5/05
100 1/05
118 8/05
129 8/05
9/05 342
05/3 123
1/07
4/06 164
The problem is that I need to get each value alone (to separate columns), in example:
Value Date
378 09/2005
388 09/2005
0 04/2005
...
606 01/2006
and so on...
In addittion you can see that sometimes the Value come first or alone, and sometimes the Date come first or alone.
I will appreciate any good ideas,
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.
I have a large poorly designed table (inherited) With a Name field that contains comma delimited text containing address information. I need to do several things with it but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any true consistency in it. When it displays in its own text box it works by placing each section on a new Line and looks ok.But I need to pull it apart and place things like unit number, Building Name in its own column etc. In the data it could be in either the 2nd,3rd, 4th, dependent on what came 1st. the data looks some thing like the following
unitNumber/StreetNumber Space StreetName (Building Name), Subub,City,Country
Some addresses won't have unit number or Suburb or country so when splitting you could have Suburbs and Citys in multiple columns even if you try and stagger the split process.Has any body go a good tool or reference site for dealing for this sort of problem. I have a table that I have made up that has some of the street names that could be used for comparing against existing records but it is by no means fool proof due to spelling inconsistencies . I also have another list of Common building names that could be used to compare, remove and place in the new building column.
Here's the resultset:
Main
CC-09-00032-D
CC-09-00113-A
PR-10-01004-2
Expected result:
P C
PR-10-01004-2 CC-09-00032-D
CC-09-00113-A
What I need is split the data into two columns if data in column Main starts with 'PR-' then output result to column P and if it starts with 'CC-' then to column C (the output needs to be in one table).
I need splitting one column data into number of columns.
Name. Below are the sample of names
Doxycycline 200 mg capsule
Effexor 100 mg tablet
Duragesic 50 mcg/hr Transderm Patch
Ambien CR 6.25 mg Tab
