  • count(*) vs count(column-name) - which is more correct?

    - by bread
    Does it make a difference if you do count(*) vs count(column-name) as in these two examples? I have a tendency to always write count(*) because it seems to fit better in my mind with the notion of it being an aggregate function, if that makes sense. But I'm not sure if it's technically best as I tend to see example code written without the * more often than not. count(*): select customerid, count(*), sum(price) from items_ordered group by customerid having count(*) > 1; vs. count(column-name): SELECT customerid, count(customerid), sum(price) FROM items_ordered GROUP BY customerid HAVING count(customerid) > 1;

  • select row from table and substitute a field with one from another column if it exists

    - by EarthMind
    I'm trying construct a PostgreSQL query that does the following but so far my efforts have been in vain. Problem: There are two tables: A and B. I'd like to select all columns from table A (having columns: id, name, description) and substitute the "A.name" column with the value of the column "B.title" from table B (having columns: id, table_A_id title, langcode) where B.table_A_id is 5 and B.langcode is "nl" (if there are any rows). My attempts: SELECT A.name, case when exists(select title from B where table_A_id = 5 and langcode= 'nl') then B.title else A.name END FROM A, B WHERE A.id = 5 and B.table_A_id = 5 and B.langcode = 'nl' -- second try: SELECT COALESCE(B.title, A.name) as name from A, B where A.id = 5 and B.table_A_id = 5 and exists(select title from B where table_A_id = 5 and langcode= 'nl') I've tried using a CASE and COALESCE() but failed due to my inexperience with both concepts. Thanks in advance.

    - by gubbfett

  • Wildcard in query for ASP.NET GridView

    - by cinu
    I am using GridView in ASP.NET 2.0. I am want to show the details from 3 tables (SQL2005) in the GridView per my search crieteria (Name of Visitor,Passport Number,Name of Company). It is working, but I want to use a wildcard for searching by first letter of "Name of Visitor". I have my code in the QueryBuilder in GridView (using Configure Datasource). The query is as follows: SELECT FormMaster.NameofCompany, VisitorMaster.NameofVisitor, VisitorMaster.PassportNumber, FormMaster.FormID, VisitorMaster.VisitorID FROM VisitorMaster INNER JOIN VisitorDetails ON VisitorMaster.VisitorID = VisitorDetails.VisitorID INNER JOIN FormMaster ON VisitorDetails.FormID = FormMaster.FormID WHERE (FormMaster.FormStatusID = 1) AND (VisitorMaster.PassportNumber = @PassportNumber ) OR (VisitorMaster.NameofVisitor = @NameofVisitor) OR (FormMaster.NameofCompany = @NameofCompany )

  • How can I synchronize one set of data with another?

    - by RenderIn
    I have an old database and a new database. The old records were converted to the new database recently. All our old applications continue to point to the old database, but the new applications point to the new database. Currently the old database is the only one being updated, so throughout the day the new database becomes out of sync. It is acceptable for the new database to be out of sync for a day, so until all our applications are pointed to the new database I just need to write a nightly cron job that will bring it up to date. I do not want to purge the new database and run the complete conversion script each night, as that would reduce uptime and would create a mess in our auditing of that table. I'm thinking about selecting all the data from the old database, converting it to the new database structure in memory, and then checking for the existence of each record before inserting it in the new database. After that's done, I'd select everything from the new database and check if it exists in the old one, and if not delete it. Is this the simplest way to do this?

  • Broken count(*) after adding LEFT JOIN

    - by Iain Urquhart
    Since adding the LEFT JOIN to the query below, the count(*) has been returning some strange values, it seems to have added the total rows returned in the query to the 'level': SELECT `n`.*, exp_channel_titles.*, round((`n`.`rgt` - `n`.`lft` - 1) / 2, 0) AS childs, count(*) - 1 + (`n`.`lft` > 1) + 1 AS level, ((min(`p`.`rgt`) - `n`.`rgt` - (`n`.`lft` > 1)) / 2) > 0 AS lower, (((`n`.`lft` - max(`p`.`lft`) > 1))) AS upper FROM `exp_node_tree_6` `n` LEFT JOIN `exp_channel_titles` ON (`n`.`entry_id`=`exp_channel_titles`.`entry_id`), `exp_node_tree_6` `p`, `exp_node_tree_6` WHERE `n`.`lft` BETWEEN `p`.`lft` AND `p`.`rgt` AND ( `p`.`node_id` != `n`.`node_id` OR `n`.`lft` = 1 ) GROUP BY `n`.`node_id` ORDER BY `n`.`lft` I'm totally stumped... Thank you!

  • Any way to make this PostgreSQL count query any faster?

    - by Ben Dauphinee
    I'm running a case-insensitive search on a table with 7.2 million rows, and I was wondering if there was any way to make this query any faster? Currently, it takes approx 11.6 seconds to execute, with just one search parameter, and I'm worried that as soon as I add more than one, this query will become massively slow. SELECT count(*) FROM "exif_parse" WHERE (description ~* 'canon')

  • Table in DB for generating primary keys?

    - by Sapphire
    Do you ever use a separate table for "generating" artificial primary keys for DB (and why)? What I mean is to have a table with two columns, table name and current ID - with which you could get new "ID" for some table by simply locking the row with that table name, getting the current value of the key, increment it by one, and unlock the row. Why would you prefer this over standard integer identity column? P.S. The "idea" is from Fowlers Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture, btw...

  • Design pattern for data entry forms with LINQ2SQL

    - by petebob796
    I am about to start a new winforms data entry application, it already has the database designed which I am comfortable with. I was going to use LINQ2SQL to access the tables to keep things type safe but am now wondering about design patterns, something I am just getting into. Since LINQ is giving me objects to use should I still create classes in between to hold the validation code and helper methods or should these just go in with the UI? It just seems I will end up with classes sat in between with little code which will cause the UI classes to have code just getting and setting values in the intermediate class and returning from validation to flag errors... Any good reading on this? Should I consider the entity framework (or similar) instead?

  • SqlCeCommand ExecuteNonQuery performance issue

    - by Michael
    I've been asked to resolve an issue with a .Net/SqlServerCe application. Specifically, after repeated inserts against the db, performance becomes increasingly degraded. In one instance at ~200 rows, in another at ~1000 rows. In the latter case the code being used looks like this: Dim cm1 As System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand = cn1.CreateCommand cm1.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Table1 Values(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)" For j = 0 To ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count - 1 'this is 3110 For i = 0 To 12 cm1.Parameters(tbl(i, 0)).Value = Vals(j,i) 'values taken from a different db Next cm1.ExecuteNonQuery() Next The specifics aren't super important (like what 'tbl' is, etc) but rather whether or not this code should be expected to handle this number of inserts, or if the crawl I'm witnessing is to be expected.

  • custom sorting or ordering a table without resorting the whole shebang

    - by fuugus
    for ten years we've been using the same custom sorting on our tables, i'm wondering if there is another solution which involves fewer updates, especially since today we'd like to have a replication/publication date and would'nt like to have our replication replicate unnecessary entries. i had a look into nested sets, but it does'nt seem to do the job for us. base table: id | a_sort ---+------- 1 10 2 20 3 30 after inserting insert into table (a_sort) values(15) an entry at the second position. id | a_sort ---+------- 1 10 2 20 3 30 4 15 ordering the table with select * from table order by a_sort and resorting all the a_sort entries, updating at least id=(2,3,4) will of course produce the desired output id | a_sort ---+------- 1 10 4 20 2 30 3 40 the column names, the column count, datatypes, a possible join, possible triggers or the way the resorting is done is/are irrelevant to the problem. also we've found some pretty neat ways to do this task fast. only; how the heck can we reduce the updates in the db to 1 or 2 max. seems like an awfully common problem. the captain obvious in me thougth once "use an a_sort float(53), insert using a fixed value of ordervaluefirstentry+abs(ordervaluefirstentry-ordervaluenextentry)/2".. but this would only allow around 1040 "in between" entries - so never resorting seems a bit problematic ;)

  • What is the current status on Microsoft ProClarity?

    - by Ali_Abadani
    I don't really know how to compose this question. My complay has been using Microsoft ProClarity for few years and we have a quite a few users using it publising books and doing ad-hoc analysis. With the new Microsoft BI solutions, it seems like they are completely going away from ProClarity and replacing the OLAP analysis with Excel. I understand the with SharePoint and integration with PerformancePoint and reporting services the dashboards and reports would be done in SharePoint but what about the analysis? Any ideas?

    Hi All WordPress Lovers, I would like to ask a help about Zensor which is a plugin that you publish a post then a moderator approves the post to be published on the wordpress blog site. When a post is awating for approval, each awaiting post is appearing "waiting moderation". But, I dont want any link appears before moderator approval. Actually I found the joing sentence below; 1- Must be added to the end of JOIN part of any query: LEFT JOIN wp_zensor ON ID = wp_zensor.post_id 2- Must be added to the end of WHERE condition : AND wp_zensor.moderation_status = 'approved' Could you please show me; where should I add these modification on the category link presentation below: <h2>Politics</h2> <?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=31&showposts=1"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?> <b><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b> <?php the_content_limit(140, "devami &raquo;"); ?> <div class="hppostmeta"> <p><?php the_time('j F Y, H:i'); ?> | <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></p> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> Or any general solutions will be welcomed.

  • Crash when checking BOF property of pessimistic locked ADO recordset

    - by Patrick
    Bit of an odd one for you: I've got two connections to a database, on one I've opened a _RecordsetPtr with a pessimistic lock. I can no longer send an UPDATE command on the other connection. I can send a SELECT command on the second connection and data is returned. If I use a read only lock then there are no problems however when I use a pessimistic lock on the second connection as well I can check the State == adStateOpen but the program hangs when I test the BOF property! If I don't test the BOF property and try to call moveNext on the second connection the software hangs If I do neither of these I am able to access the data via the second connection but trying to access the data from the first connection causes the software to hang. Any one seen anything similar as I'm a bit stuck? EDIT : it wasn't hanging, someone had put a 30 minute timeout on the connection and I wasn't waiting that long while testing...

  • Speeding up a group by date query on a big table in postgres

    - by zaius
    I've got a table with around 20 million rows. For arguments sake, lets say there are two columns in the table - an id and a timestamp. I'm trying to get a count of the number of items per day. Here's what I have at the moment. SELECT DATE(timestamp) AS day, COUNT(*) FROM actions WHERE DATE(timestamp) >= '20100101' AND DATE(timestamp) < '20110101' GROUP BY day; Without any indices, this takes about a 30s to run on my machine. Here's the explain analyze output: GroupAggregate (cost=675462.78..676813.42 rows=46532 width=8) (actual time=24467.404..32417.643 rows=346 loops=1) -> Sort (cost=675462.78..675680.34 rows=87021 width=8) (actual time=24466.730..29071.438 rows=17321121 loops=1) Sort Key: (date("timestamp")) Sort Method: external merge Disk: 372496kB -> Seq Scan on actions (cost=0.00..667133.11 rows=87021 width=8) (actual time=1.981..12368.186 rows=17321121 loops=1) Filter: ((date("timestamp") >= '2010-01-01'::date) AND (date("timestamp") < '2011-01-01'::date)) Total runtime: 32447.762 ms Since I'm seeing a sequential scan, I tried to index on the date aggregate CREATE INDEX ON actions (DATE(timestamp)); Which cuts the speed by about 50%. HashAggregate (cost=796710.64..796716.19 rows=370 width=8) (actual time=17038.503..17038.590 rows=346 loops=1) -> Seq Scan on actions (cost=0.00..710202.27 rows=17301674 width=8) (actual time=1.745..12080.877 rows=17321121 loops=1) Filter: ((date("timestamp") >= '2010-01-01'::date) AND (date("timestamp") < '2011-01-01'::date)) Total runtime: 17038.663 ms I'm new to this whole query-optimization business, and I have no idea what to do next. Any clues how I could get this query running faster?

  • XML Import how would you do it?

    XML is used as one of our main integration points. it comes over by many clients at a time but too many clients importing at the same time can slow down our database to a crawl. Someone has to have solved a problem like this. I am basically using VB to parse through the data and import what i want and don't want. Is there a better way?

Is there some special format, or type I should use to be able to store this? I have tried using to_date, and specifying the format I am using. Many thanks for any suggestions from this confused MySql dveloper.

  • T-SQL Self Join in combination with aggregate function

    - by Nick
    Hi, i have the following table. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Tree]( [AutoID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Category] [varchar](10) NULL, [Condition] [varchar](10) NULL, [Description] [varchar](50) NULL, CONSTRAINT [PK_Tree] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [AutoID] ASC )WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY] ) ON [PRIMARY] GO the data looks like this: INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[Tree] ([Category] ,[Condition] ,[Description]) VALUES ('1','Alpha','Type 1') INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[Tree] ([Category] ,[Condition] ,[Description]) VALUES ('1','Alpha','Type 1') INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[Tree] ([Category] ,[Condition] ,[Description]) VALUES ('2','Alpha','Type 2') INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[Tree] ([Category] ,[Condition] ,[Description]) VALUES ('2','Alpha','Type 2') go I try now to do the following: SELECT Category,COUNT(*) as CategoryCount FROM Tree where Condition = 'Alpha' group by Category but i wish also to get the Description for each Element. I tried several subqueries, self joins etc. i always come to the problem that the subquery cannot return more than one record. The problem is caused by a poor database design which i cannot change and i run out of ideas to get this done in a single query ;-(
