In my report, I need to display column names (and its values) from my dataset, which uses the stored procedure and within it use the PIVOT statement. I cannot use the matrix control in report since I need to add another static column to the right of the matrix, but since that cannot be done ni SQL SSRS 2005, I need to PIVOT it through stored procedure. The parameter passed to stored procedure is the year and it is used for pivot. The statement looks like this:
@sql = 'SELECT * FROM (SELECT YearId, SchoolId, ReportText, OutputValue_Text from AggregateTable) AS AGAM PIVOT (MIN(OutputValue_Text) FOR YearId IN ([' + @YearId + '])) PVT'
EXEC(@sql)
So, since the years passed as parameters can change, I cannot hard-code it as column in my report, so I need to programatically display column names and values from my dataset, something like dataSet.Tables[0].Columns[].ColumnName; I have tried with writing the code, but I do not have much experience with it and I have not been very successful. Can someone help me with the code?
I am mapping an entity from SQL 2005 to another entity in another system on SQL 2000. Since the destination system has its own ID generator, I want to keep the generated ID for each row of my table in a column of my table in SQL 2005. The new column is in the dataset now , but I don't know how to update my table to have that column values (The OleDbDestination just insert new items.)
I was wondering if anyone has an idea of how we could find the table names and column names of the tables in our Sql server database at runtime/dynamically given our connection string? Please let me know.
I have a field in a table that contains a different formula (varchar(1000)) for each record. It's along the lines of something like this, although each formula is different: ([ColumnA] - [ColumnB])/([ColumnC] - [ColumnD]). I plug that into a dynamic SQL statement so that it can get executed in a select statement.
Due to the variations of the formulas, checking for Divide by Zero, etc, we want to move this to a .NET method. We'd like to replace "ColumnA" and "ColumnB", etc., with the actual values so that we're passing something like (5-3)/(6-2). I haven't been able to figure out a way to do this without actually executing it. We don't want to pass the solution, but the equation filled with the actual values rather than the column names.
I have a table of results for various measured quantites and i need to turn this into a view. Only problem is i need to seperate the measured quantities and their respective values into seperate columns.
I am building reports against our TFS development db. One of the reports tracks days spent (Dwell Time) in various status categories (eg: New, Assigned, In Development, Hold, etc) for a given "ticket". For a fixed list of values from {Work Item].System_State, I can send the results (days in Assigned) to the column named (Assigned) for each status for each event in the [Work Item History], and then sum them for each ticket as: Ticket ID New Assigned InDev etc 1230001 2 0 0 ... 1230001 0 1 2 ....
SUM 2 1 2 .... However, I have many different Projects, each of which use their own Status names. I don't want to duplicate the same basic report, if I can avoid it.
How can I name and generate this data for the unique Status list for each Project?
Simplest analog is: name = First(Fields!Status.Value, "TFSdb") and allows value for a column name (category) as: =IIF(Fields!Status.Value = First(Fields!Status.Value, "TFSdb"), Fields!Days.Value, 0) However this fails beause: 1. It only delivers the FIRST status value, and, 2. I cannot SUM an expression which is itself an aggregate (using First).
I need to check whether procedure found any matches or not. If not it has to return the column name where matching value was not found. For example, if there was no record found in the table "Addresses" column "customer" with the value @username, it should return "street". If id with value @prod_id was not found in the table "Products", the "productname" must be returned as well.
CREATE PROC sp_test @id INT, @username VARCHAR(50), @prod_id INT AS
SELECT name FROM Customers WHERE id=@id SELECT street FROM Addresses WHERE customer=@username SELECT productname FROM Products WHERE id=@prod_id
It is kind of check, which has to find out if users have inserted all the necessary values or not. Thanks for any advice.
We have SharePoint list which has, say, two columns. Column A and Column B.
Column A can have three values - red, blue & green.
Column B can have four values - pen, marker, pencil & highlighter.
A typical view of list can be:
Column A - Column B red - pen red - pencil red - highlighter blue - marker blue - pencil green - pen green - highlighter red - pen blue - pencil blue - highlighter blue - pencil
We are looking to create a report from SharePoint List using SSRS which has following view:
red blue green pen 2 0 1 marker 0 1 0 pencil 1 3 0 highlighter 1 1 1
We tried Sum but not able to display in single row.
Hi all, By using below query i can get no of tables having the give column name in a particular database, SELECT COUNT(*) AS CounterFROM syscolumnsWHERE (name = 'empno') but i want to know the table names too? any one please suggest me how to find table names too...... In other words i know the particular column name and right now i want to know the table names in which this column name exists.
I was wondering how would I get the column names from a table? Not the results just a listing of column names. What is the command to get this information? I am using MS Access, but I posted here because MS SQL is the closest thing on this forum and the syntax is usually similar.
All, is there a way of getting all table names that contain a columnname?I'm looking at a DB that has 125+ tables and I'm interested in findingall table names that contain the column order_date.How can I do it?TIA,Sashi
I have an SSIS package that imports data from an Excel file, replaces any value in Excel that reads "NULL" to "", then writes the data to a couple of databases.
What I have discovered today, is I have two columns of dates, an admit date and discharge date column, and what I need to do is anywhere I have a null value in the discharge date column, I have to replace it with the value in the admit date column.
I have searched around online and tried a few things using the Replace funtion in Derived columns but no dice so far.
Hi, I have got a table where i want to display sum of count(Column1), count(Column2) in another column.How can this be done? for example SELECT SUM(Count(pxInsName)+Count(pxFlowName)) AS "pySummaryCount(1)" , Count(pxInsName) AS "pySummaryCount(2)" , Count(pxFlowName) AS "pySummaryCount(3)" , pxAssignedOrg AS "pxAssignedOrg" , pxAssignedOrgDiv AS "pxAssignedOrgDiv" , pxAssignedOrgUnit AS "pxAssignedOrgUnit" FROM pc_assign_worklist WHERE pxObjClass = ? GROUP BY pxAssignedOrg , pxAssignedOrgDiv , pxAssignedOrgUnit ORDER BY 'pySummaryCount(1)' DESC
But sum function can not be used on aggregate function.
I wasn't sure whether or not to post this in the .NET or MsSQL forum, mods please move accordingly.
Say I have two tables: Store, and Area that have the following columns: Area: AreaID, AreaName, Description
Store: StoreID, AreaID, StoreName, Description
When I run the following query : SELECT * FROM Area, Store WHERE Area.AreaID = Store.AreaID, the following columns come back from the .NET SQLDataReader
Even though the Description fields are different there is no differentiation between which one is which (other than an integer index)
Is there a way to form the SQL query so the columns come back Area.AreaID, Area.AreaName, Area.Description etc...
I was hoping to do something like the following Select Area.* as 'Area.'.* ...
but that wasn't liked by the SQL server, any ideas?
Note: The actual tables are more complex than this, and the table names aren't static. Individually aliasing columns won't work, nor will checking the alias.
I would like to list all the column names against each record of the table and and would like to keep track whether the column is empty or nonempty. How can I write SQL query for this?
I am using the following to extract the column names of a table. I would like to do this for the whole database. Currently I am cutting the results into an excel spread. Is there a better way of doing this? Here is the query
SELECT name FROM syscolumns WHERE [id] = OBJECT_ID('tablename')
SELECT TOP 100 text, query_plan, cp.plan_handle, qs.last_execution_time FROM sys.dm_exec_cached_plans cp CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(cp.plan_handle) CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_query_plan(cp.plan_handle) JOIN sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs ON cp.plan_handle = qs.plan_handle WHERE objtype='Adhoc'
I have below output:
Text Query_plan Plan_handle Lst_execution_time Select id,name from person <Showplan... dshkkgdaHqrqe13232423 2015-07-21 10:50:22.713 Update customer set Cid=3 where name='abc' <Showplan... poasfvrqe13232423 2015-07-21 10:16:22.500 delete from orders where ORid=8 <Showplan... 2ase2423 2015-07-21 10:10:22.710 Select 1,2,3,4,5 from num <showplan afqfqfq 2015-07-21 10:10:22.710

I'm new to this whole trigger 'thing', so forgive me if this question has been asked and answered a few times already.
I'm in the process of writing a trigger that will send an e-mail to an application admin when any table within a given database is altered (IE, a column is added or deleted). I can get the e-mail to fire off when that happens without any issue, but I'd like to be able to let the admin know which table was tweaked and what new column was added.
Is this a relatively easy thing to do and I'm just not finding the right built-in variable name, or does something more need to be done?
I would like to use variables to set the table name and some column names of a SQL Query in a stored procedure (the variable values will come from a webpage)... something like this:ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SelectWorkHours @DayName varchar,@DayIDName varchar AS BEGINSELECT @DayName.InTime1, @DayName.OutTime1, @DayName.InTime2, @DayName.OutTime2 FROM @DayName INNER JOINWorkHours ON @DayName.@DayIDName = @DayName.@DayIDName INNER JOINEmployees ON WorkHours.WorkHoursID = Employees.WorkHoursID END RETURN ...is this possible?? if so how? Thanks
Hi, I have a SP which returns a select query on a temp table so I get to choose column names when I create the #table.
Can I determine column names myself based on the results of another query (in the SP) before, or (preferably) after I create the #table and populate it.
My query is used to bind to a datagrid so I could use....
dataGrid.Columns[index].HeaderText and set it to a particular output parameter, but I want to keep the code in the SQL.
HiI have been working since 2 days to device a method to export sql tableinto csv format. I have tried using bcp with format option to keep thecolumn names but I'm unable to transfer the file with column names. andalso I'm having problems on columns having decimal data.Can any one suggest me how to automate data transfer(by using SP) andretaining column names.ThanksNoor
