Non-Equi Joins
Mar 22, 2007I am taking Microsoft Course 4329 on Joining Data from Multiple Tables in
SQL Server 2005, and I am stumped in the Lab, Task 2, Step 3.
How can I rewrite the following SQL Statement to produce the same results by
using a non-equality operator in the join?
use adventureworks
select firstname + ' ' + lastname as name, gender, vacationhours as hours
from humanresources.employee e join person.contact c on e.contactid=c.contactid
where gender='f' and vacationhours>50
order by hours desc
Thanks in advance for your help!

Non-equi Joins Using &&<&&>
Aug 28, 2007
Can we replace the where clause operator of '<>' with a join syntax condition.
Could someone explain me the dynamics behind the following query:
select a.b, c.d from a inner join c on a.b <> c.d
This could effectively replace the NOT IN and EXCEPT operators
Finding The Natural Key
Mar 15, 2006Whenever I want help on a query, I get told my design is wrong, So thistime I'm posting a message during the design phase: How am I going toperfectly design the following?We want to be able to track time for users for multiple modules, fornow a Schedule module and a Punchlist module. These modules alreadyexist and there are dozens of other modules which we will add to thelist as well, two or three at a time - so it should be possibly to addto the list of related modules fairly easily.In my mind the natural key is the UserOrContactId (an id for aparticular person), the date the time is for and ReferenceId to themodule it is in, either PunchlistItemId or ScheduleTaskId. I haven'tdone the foreign keys yet and will do that once the table design issettled. The MinutesSpent is going to be the minutes the person spentdoing a particular schedule task or punchlist item, which will beconverted from hours and minutes to just minutes for the database witha constraint for total miuntes per day not being more than 24 hours.Create and Update User/Time is a standard thing we put on all ourtables for auditing purposes. The ForDate will be the date the hourshappen so if the natural key is done right that will take care ofchecking that two entries aren't made on the same day, i.e. the totalhorus should just be updated if an entry exists.The problem is that I can't make the natural key a primary key becauseyou can't have nulls in the primary key, i.e. it will be either aPunchlistItem OR a Schedule Task, but not both for a particular record.In the past I have done something like RefType = 'Schedule', RefId =ScheduleTaskId, but then foreign keys can't be applied.So what's the perfect solution so that I won't get heckled for designwhen I ask a query question about it in a few months? Celko, get it allout of your system - I don't understand database design, blah, blah,blah, but show me the perfect solution.CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TimeSpent]([UserOrContactId] [int] NOT NULL,[ForDate] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL,[PunchlistItemId] [int] NULL,[ScheduleTaskId] [int] NULL,[MinutesSpent] [int] NOT NULL,[Description] [varchar](100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL,[Notes] [text] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,[CreateUser] [int] NOT NULL,[CreateTime] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL,[UpdateUser] [int] NOT NULL,[UpdateTime] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]GOALTER TABLE [dbo].[TimeSpent] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [CK_RefIds]CHECK (([PunchlistItemId] IS NOT NULL OR [ScheduleTaskId] IS NOTNULL))GO

Nov 10, 2007Hello! I have two tablestable1: table2:person Manager---------- -----------------*id *id*Manager_id *Name*Branch *Title Now I want to select person.* and Mangager.Name, where person.Manager_id=Manager.id.Ok, that would be easy for me, but the point is, that the column person.Manager_id might be empty or =0 (as integer), and in that case I want to have the person.* data too.So, something like Select person.*, Manager.id From person, Manager Where person.id=4 AND person.Manager=id=Manager.id doesn't work. Can somebody explain me how to fix it? I'm using MS-SQL2000 if it is important.... Best regards!

SQL Server 2008 :: Put Clustered Index On 8 Column Natural Key Or On Identity Key
Aug 2, 2015I am extremely new to database design, and I ran into a problem that I know comes up often, however has many opinions...
Basically I have a table that is going to have 50+ columns. The natural key on this table is actually 8 columns wide, 4 of them being Varchar columns by default. (varchar(50)'s).
I have added an identity column, (1,1) to the table, however I put the clustered index on the 8 natural keys... My plan is to rebuild the clustered index once nightly when the system isn't in use (after 7 pm).
I know others would say it would be better to have the clustered key on the 1,1 column and then add indexes on the other 8 fields... However I don't quite understand why honestly...
Every single query against this table will use the 8 columns, and will NOT use the Identity column (1,1) because they are calls from other systems that do not know the Identity column....
Therefore if your database is set up for query speed, and every single query has to have a value for 8 columns to get a valid result, does it make sense to put a clustered index over the 8 columns?
If not why? Why is putting a clustered index on an identity column (that will literally never be used in a query) a better solution?
Joins On Views That Are Formed With Outer Joins
Nov 3, 2000We find that a delete command on a table where the rows to be deleted involve an inner join between the table and a view formed with an outer join sometimes works, sometimes gives error 625.
If the delete is recoded to use the join key word instead of the = sign
then it alway gives error 4425.
625 21 0 Could not retrieve row from logical page %S_PGID by RID because the entry in the offset table (%d) for that RID (%d) is less than or equal to 0. 1033
4425 16 0 Cannot specify outer join operators in a query containing joined tables. View '%.*ls' contains outer join operators.
The delete with a correleted sub query instead of a join works.
Error 4425 text would imply that joins with view formed by outer joins should be avoided.
Any ideas on the principles involved here.
JOINS To Sub-Queries -vs- JOINS To Tables
Aug 11, 2005SQL Server 2000Howdy All.Is it going to be faster to join several tables together and thenselect what I need from the set or is it more efficient to select onlythose columns I need in each of the tables and then join them together?The joins are all Integer primary keys and the tables are all about thesame.I need the fastest most efficient method to extract the data as thisquery is one of the most used in the system.Thanks,Craig
View 3 Replies View RelatedAnsi Joins Vs. SQL Joins
Oct 12, 1999Hi,
Why is it that SQL joins (*=) run a little faster as opposed to ANSI joins(LEFT JOIN...)? Aren't they supposed to be almost identical?
The issue is this: we are promoting using ANSI syntax for the obvious reason (future versions of SQL Server may not support SQL Server syntax; portability, etc.)
However, the problem is the speed. What have others done about this? Do you use ANSI syntax or SQL syntax? HOw true is it that future SQL Server versions may discontinue support for the '*=" and "=*' join operators.

UNION ALL, Joins And No Joins
Feb 29, 2008I have four tables which I want to return results for an advanced search function, the tables contain different data, but can be quite easily joined,
Table A Contains a Main Image, this image is displayed in the results
Table B Contains an Icon, this image is displayed in the results
Table C doesn't have an image in it but has a child table with a number of images associated to the table, in the UNION ALL statement I would Like to do a Join to get say the top Image from this child and print it for the row associated with table C.
Select title, description, image from tableA
UNION ALL
Select title, description, icon as image from tableB
UNION ALL
title, description, ( inner Join SELECT top(1)
from imageTableC where imagetableC.FK = tableC.PK)
as image from tableC
Could someone show me the syntax to do this, I have all the information printing to the screen, bar this table C image.
Multiple Left Joins (2 Left Joins 1 Big Headache)
Sep 1, 2005Hi All,
Im having a problem with a statement i cannot seem to get 2 left joins working at the same time 1 works fine but when i try the second join i get this error:-
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'children_tutorial.school_id=schools.idx LEFT JOIN regions ON children_tutorial.region_id=region.idx'.
My SQL statment is as follows :-
SELECT children_tutorial.*,schools.schoolname,regions.rname FROM children_tutorial LEFT JOIN schools ON children_tutorial.school_id=schools.idx LEFT JOIN regions ON children_tutorial.region_id=region.idx
I am using an Access database i have tried all sorts to get it working and its driving me mad!! any help would be really appreciated.
Inner Joins
Jan 27, 2004When I add a constraint to the where part of the SQL statement below it will only show the nc_department.department where siteid equals it. How do I pull and display all of those departments regardless of where the siteid = the selected item? In other words doesnt the Left outer Join supposed to grab all contents from the left table regardless?
SQL = "SELECT nc_department.order_id, nc_department.department, Count(nonconformance.department_id) as 'events', ISNULL(SUM(nonconformance.nc_wafer_qty),0) as wafers FROM nc_department LEFT OUTER JOIN nonconformance ON nc_department.department_id = nonconformance.department_id WHERE nc_department.active = '1' AND nonconformance.site_id = '" & siteid.SelectedItem.Value & "' GROUP BY nc_department.department , nc_department.order_id"
thanks in advance
JOINS And WHERE
May 21, 2001JOIN MUDDLE
Soory if this is a bit basic, but I'm chasing my tail:
I have two select statements:
SELECT MyRows from Table1 where X = 1
SELECT OtherRows From Table 2 Where y = 3
I want to produce a LEFT JOIN between the result of each query, and return the resultant rows
I know this is not correct syntax:
(SELECT MyRows from Table1 where X = 1)
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT OtherRows From Table 2 Where y = 3)
ON
Tabel1.Row1 = Table2.Row2
but I think it illustrates what I want to do
If I do the WHERE after the join I only get where there is a righthand table
I cant get the syntax right, an example with the correct grammar would be very much appreciated
Help-Joins
May 25, 2001I am trying to figure out which Option is the best/fastest and why?
I have simplified the query a lot. The actual query consists of lots of tables.
OPTION A (the search for the specific id is in the JOIN)
select * from table A left join table B on a.id = b.id and a.id in (1,2,3)
OR
OPTION B(the search for specific id is in the WHERE clause)
select * from table A left join table B on a.id = b.id
where a.id in (1,2,3)

This is the join that inserts.

Tab_Special_tox r ON l.MyID = r.MyID

Too Many Joins?
Jul 9, 2004Microsoft SQL Server 2000:
I am not a SQL programmer, but I am trying to use data collected in our Job Costing system to feed data to a crystal report that summarizes the current department name and the last date each job was scanned into a department.
I used aliases of the Process table to extract the max date for each department.
This statement works fine, but sometimes it hangs and locks my process table. I am not sure what event causes the lock, but I think it has to do with the users aborting the report during the SQL extract or multiple users trying to report at the same time (8am when they first arrive at work).
I showed this to a consultant and he showed me that the MAX statement in the 3rd to last join was eating most of the execution time. Also he told me I am using too many joins and should look into Table Views. The statement completes in 15 to 45 seconds, depending on the workload.
What can I do to improve the performance of this code and to avoid the locks?

Apr 15, 2008Heya -
Very new here to SQL, but when I do this following query
SELECT ProjMgr, SUM(Fee) AS Fee
FROM dbo.PR
WHERE (ProjMgr = '00138')
GROUP BY ProjMgr
I return these results:
ProjMgrFee
001389145297
Simple enough, so I flex my newbie SQL muscles and put in the last name instead of the ProjectManager's employee number
SELECT dbo.EM.LastName, SUM(dbo.PR.Fee) AS Fee
FROM dbo.PR INNER JOIN
dbo.EM ON dbo.PR.ProjMgr = dbo.EM.Employee
WHERE (dbo.PR.ProjMgr = '00138')
GROUP BY dbo.EM.LastName
And get these results
LastNameFee

Okay, NOW I'm getting cocky. I try to bring in an amount indicating held labor from another table that will have multiple instances of the same number, called WBS1, and show a sum of values contained over months of history in a sum. Before I do that, I add the table, and then I'm stuck - look what happens to my fee column...any ideas?
SELECT dbo.EM.LastName, SUM(dbo.PR.Fee) AS Fee

Apr 25, 2008Hi All,
I had a query like
Select * from Fact1
UNION
Select * from Fact2
JOIN
(Select top(col1),... from Fact3
INNER JOIN Table1
group by Col2
) ON....
The above one was executing in 5 minutes
I changed the inner query to say
Select Quarter,top(col1),... from Fact3
INNER JOIN View1
group by Quarter,Col2
I have made sure that the inner query is returning the same set of rows before and after modification. But still the modified query runs for ever. I am refering 2 databases(both SQL Server 2000 databases, on the same server- including the current). Please also note that I had a inner join to a table which I have changed to a view in the inner query.
I suppose this is due to the change in the execution plan. What should I do to make this work?
Any ideas?

May 6, 2008I am very new to SQL and I have a question about inner joins. By using a lookup table and a row function, I have the following question and code. I am not sure if it right or not. I would appreciate any assistance:
For every type of food in the l_foods table, list the following:
The full name of the supplier from the l_suppliers table. The description of food from the l_foods table The price from the l_foods table plus the price_increase from the l_foods table; rename it to total_price
When price increase is null, assume that the 10 cents will be added to the price. Sort this information ty the total price.
SELECT a.supplier_name,
b.description,
b.price_increase AS total_price
FROM l_suppliers AS a, l_foods AS b;
Orange- l_foods table
Blue - l_supplier table
Red - within both tables.
That is far as I got without error.

Jun 17, 2008Hi all,
What is happening internally when a join is performed ?.
Why there are two outer joins as both of them performing the
same opertion?.Use left join key word and swap the tables , its will
perform a right join .Is that correct?
Thanks in advance

Nov 10, 2005Hi who can help me figgering out what's wrong with the following code:
CREATE PROCEDURE DBO.[612 - Update Aantal totaal Inhuizingen]
AS
UPDATE tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen
SET
tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen.BinnenNorm = Case When [tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Norm]='1' Then [BinnenNorm]+1 Else [BinnenNorm] End,
tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen.OranjeNorm = Case When [tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Norm]='2' Then [OranjeNorm]+1 Else [OranjeNorm] End,
tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen.BuitenNorm = Case When [tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Norm]='3' Then [BuitenNorm]+1 Else [BuitenNorm] End,
tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen.Totaal = [Totaal]+1
WHERE
(((tblOpenVerhuizingenEventInhuizen.id)=98)
AND
(([tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Categorie])>0)
AND
(([tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Type])='ZVIN') Or (([tblWatervalVerhuizen].[Type])='ZVIG')))
GO
He gives an error on the ')' but I think they are correct, if you take 1 away he gives an error that he doesn't know tblWatervalVerhuizen......THX!!!!
