• Conditional PIVOT/transform problem

  - by IanC

  Hi folks I have a table with three columns, which we'll call ID1, ID2, and Value. Sample data: ID ID1 Value 1 1 0 1 2 1 1 3 1 1 3 2 1 4 0 1 4 1 1 5 0 1 5 2 2 1 2 Value is limited to 0, 1, or 2. What I need to do is pivot/transform this data into a column-based count of how many times each possible Value appears, grouped by ID, ID1. The output of the above should be: ID ID1 Val0 Val1 Val2 1 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 2 0 1 3 0 1 1 1 4 1 1 0 1 5 1 0 1 2 1 0 0 1 I'm using SQL Server 2008. How do I do this?

• Take advantage of multiple cores executing SQL statements

  - by willvv

  I have a small application that reads XML files and inserts the information on a SQL DB. There are ~ 300 000 files to import, each one with ~ 1000 records. I started the application on 20% of the files and it has been running for 18 hours now, I hope I can improve this time for the rest of the files. I'm not using a multi-thread approach, but since the computer I'm running the process on has 4 cores I was thinking on doing it to get some improvement on the performance (although I guess the main problem is the I/O and not only the processing). I was thinking on using the BeginExecutingNonQuery() method on the SqlCommand object I create for each insertion, but I don't know if I should limit the max amount of simultaneous threads (nor I know how to do it). What's your advice to get the best CPU utilization? Thanks

• Speed up this query joining to a table multiple times

  - by Mongus Pong

  Hi, I have this query that (stripped right down) goes something like this : SELECT [Person_PrimaryContact].[LegalName], [Person_Manager].[LegalName], [Person_Owner].[LegalName], [Person_ProspectOwner].[LegalName], [Person_ProspectBDM].[LegalName], [Person_ProspectFE].[LegalName], [Person_Signatory].[LegalName] FROM [Cache] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_Owner] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_Owner].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ClientOwnerID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_Manager] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_Manager].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ClientManagerID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_Signatory] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_Signatory].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ClientSignatoryID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_PrimaryContact] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_PrimaryContact].[PersonID] = [Cache].[PrimaryContactID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_ProspectOwner] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_ProspectOwner].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ProspectOwnerID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_ProspectBDM] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_ProspectBDM].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ProspectBDMID] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[Person] AS [Person_ProspectFE] WITH (NOLOCK) ON [Person_ProspectFE].[PersonID] = [Cache].[ProspectFEID] Person is a huge table and each join to it has a pretty significant hit in the execution plan. Is there anyway I can adjust this query so that I am only linking to it once, or at least get SQL Server to scan through it only once?

• Designing Relational Survey Questionnaires Database

  - by user1213055

  I'm trying to build a simple sql database for following access database. Currently there is no relationship and I just have two tables male and female with 6 sections in each form. How can I design it a better way so end user can connect to the database and analyze using STATA or SPSS ? I'm really confused whether I should create one table with all fields or break down into different tables. The database is specific to this study only so I'm not looking for a generic survey database where user can create surveys and capture them. Any feedback or suggestion is much appreciated.

• Dynamic SQL queries in code possible?

  - by SeanD

  Instead of hard coding sql queries like Select * from users where user_id =220202 can these be made dynamic like Select * from $users where $user_id = $input. Reason i ask is when changes are needed to table/column names i can just update it in one place and don't have to ask developers to go line by line to find all references to update. It is very time consuming. And I do not like the idea of exposing database stuff in the code. My major concern is load time. Like with dynamic pages, the database has to fetch the page content, same way if queries are dynamic first system has to lookup the references then execute the queries, so does it impact load times? I am using codeignitor PHP. If it it possible then the next question is where to store all the references? In the app, in a file, in the DB, and how?

• Can't INSERT INTO SELECT into a table with identity column

  - by Eran Goldin

  In SQL server, I'm using a table variable and when done manipulating it I want to insert its values into a real table that has an identity column which is also the PK. The table variable I'm making has two columns; the physical table has four, the first of which is the identity column, an integer IK. The data types for the columns I want to insert are the same as the target columns' data types. INSERT INTO [dbo].[Message] ([Name], [Type]) SELECT DISTINCT [Code],[MessageType] FROM @TempTableVariable END This fails with Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.Message' with unique index 'IX_Message_Id'. The duplicate key value is (ApplicationSelection). But when trying to insert just Values (...) it works ok. How do I get it right?

• Return multiple results using dynamic sql (postgresql 8.2)

  - by precose

  I want to loop through schemas and get a result set that looks like this: Count 5 834 345 34 984 However, I can't get it to return anything using dynamic sql...I've tried everything but 8.2 is being a real pain. Here is my function: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION dwh.adam_test4() RETURNS void LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $function$ DECLARE myschema text; rec RECORD; BEGIN FOR myschema IN select distinct c.table_schema, d.p_id from information_schema.tables t inner join information_schema.columns c on (t.table_schema = t.table_schema and t.table_name = c.table_name) join dwh.sgmt_clients d on c.table_schema = lower(d.userid) where c.table_name = 'fact_members' and c.column_name = 'debit_card' and t.table_schema NOT LIKE 'pg_%' and t.table_schema NOT IN ('information_schema', 'ad_delivery', 'dwh', 'users', 'wand', 'ttd') order by table_schema LOOP EXECUTE 'select count(ucic) from '|| myschema || '.' ||'fact_members where debit_card = ''yes''' into rec; RETURN rec; END LOOP; END $function$

• Show parts of the result of an SQL statement using PHP

  - by mouthpiec

  I have an SQL query which returns a set of data (around 40-50 tuples). I would like to display the results 5 at a time on an HTML page using PHP. I already managed to have the right SELECT statement, but i am having problems to display the results 5 by 5 using a "more" button. Can you please help? Note that every time i call the query, the data is being randomized, so it is not possible to set limits and call the query again. I have to find the method to store the results somewhere, and then show them 5 by 5.

• Multiple column foreign key contraints

  - by eugene4968

  I want to setup table constraints for the following scenario and I’m not sure how to do it or if it’s even possible in SQL Server 2005. I have three tables A,B,C. C is a child of B. B will have a optional foreign key(may be null) referencing A. For performance reasons I also want table C to have the same foreign key reference to table A. The constraint on table C should be that C must reference its parent (B) and also have the same foreign key reference to A as its parent. Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?

• SQL Select between two fields depending on the value of one field

  - by Filip

  Hi. I am using a PostgreSQL database, and in a table representing some measurements I've two columns: measurement, and interpolated. In the first I've the observation (measurement), and b is the interpolated value depending on nearby values. Every record with an original value has also an interpolated value. However, there are a lot of records without "original" observations (NULL), hence the values are interpolated and stored in the second column. So basically there are just two cases in the database: Value Value NULL Value Of course, it is preferable to use the value from the first column if available, hence I need to build a query to select the data from the first column, and if not available (NULL), then the database returns the value from the second column for the record in question. I have no idea how to build the SQL query. Please help. Thanks.

• Sql-server Database query help

  - by menacheb

  Hi, I have a problem that I didn't manage to solve for a very long time, and I quite desperate. I have a Database (SQL Server) with table named 'ProcessData' and columns named 'Process_Name' (Data Type: nvarchar(50)), 'Start_At' (DataType: DateTime) and 'End_At' (Data Type: DateTime). I need to know for each 'Time-Interval' (let's say 1 minute) how many processes (Process_Name = PN) was open (after or equal to the 'Start_at' column and before or equal to the 'End_At' column) during this time (It can be a few rows with the same data). Does anyone know how to make this query without a 'for' loop? (It ITSELF will promote the time), (The answer will be a table with two columns (1. The time the check took place. 2. the number of open processes at this time.) and a row for each 'Time-Interval' (1 minute in this example ) Many thanks,

• Database design: one huge table or separate tables?

  - by littlegreen

  Currently I am designing a database for use in our company. We are using SQL Server 2008. The database will hold data gathered from several customers. The goal of the database is to acquire aggregate benchmark numbers over several customers. Recently, I have become worried with the fact that one table in particular will be getting very big. Each customer has approximately 20.000.000 rows of data, and there will soon be 30 customers in the database (if not more). A lot of queries will be done on this table. I am already noticing performance issues and users being temporarily locked out. My question, will we be able to handle this table in the future, or is it better to split this table up into smaller tables for each customer?

• [SQL] Query returning more than one row with the same name

  - by Neutralise

  I am having trouble with an SQL query returning more than one row with the same name, using this query: SELECT * FROM People P JOIN SpecialityCombo C ON P.PERSONID = C.PERSONID JOIN Speciality S ON C.GROUPID = S.ID; People contains information on each person, Specialty contains the names and ID of each specialty and SpecialityCombo contains information about the associations between People and their Speciality, namely each row has a PERSONID and a Speciality ID (trying to keep it normalised to some extent). My query works in that it returns each Person and the name of their specialty, but it returns n rows for the number of specialitys they want, because each specialty returns the same row 'name'. What I want is it to return just one row containing each speciality. How can I do this?

• How do I switch the table that is queried with linq-to-sql

  - by Ian Ringrose

  We have two tables with the same set of columns; depending on the “type” of object the value is stored in one of the two tables. I wish to use common code to access these two tables. If I was using “raw sql” I could just use String.Format() to change the table name. (Likewise for updates etc) The two separate tables are needed as the data access patterns are very different for the common queries on the two tables and therefore different indexes are needed. “Views” and “instead of triggers” etc to make the tables look like a single table are not liked here. A lot of our customers use low end version of SqlServer so we cannot use partition tables.

• Remove specific string from multiple database rows in SQL

  - by Scott

  I have a column that contains page titles, which has the website name appended to the end of each. (e.g. Product Name | Company Name Inc.) I would like to remove the " | Company Name Inc." from multiple rows simultaneously. What SQl query commands (or query itself) would allow me to accomplish this? To re-illustrate, I want to convert multiple rows of 1 column from this: Product Name | Company Name Inc. To this: Product Name

• Linq.Where-to-SQL on a text field comparing to a list of values

  - by StampedeXV

  Customer.text is a field in an T-SQL DB (that I do not control and thus may not alter) of type "text". I'd like to do something like this: List<string> compare = new List<string>(); compare.Add("one"); compare.Add("two"); var q = from t in customer where t.text.Contains( compare.First()) select t; this will work. But now I'd like to do something like: (!NOT WORKING!) var q = from t in customer where compare.Contains( t.text ) select t; How can I achieve this? Is it even possible?

• Similar SQL queries returning different results...

  - by Pablo

  Here are the SQL Queries: $sql1 = "SELECT count(thread) AS total FROM comments WHERE thread=1 AND parent_id=0 "; $sql2 = "SELECT count(thread) AS total FROM comments, users WHERE thread=1 AND parent_id=0 AND users.user_id=comments.user_id "; $sql3 = "SELECT comments.*, users.username AS username FROM comments, users WHERE thread=1 AND parent_id=0 AND users.user_id=comments.user_id ORDER BY date LIMIT 10, 5 "; My question is why would $sql1 and $sql2 would return two different results? $sql1 returns 61 rows $sql2 returns 56 rows The 5th line in $sql2 is just for testing, is not required, is just a variation of $sql1 which gets the total rows for a pagination.

• Re-use aliased field in SQL SELECT STATEMENT

  - by Bad Display Name

  Hi, the question is hard to define without giving an example, e.g. I'd like to achieve something like this : SELECT (CASE WHEN ...) AS FieldA, 20 + FieldA AS FieldB FROM Tbl Assuming that by "..." I've replaced a long and complex CASE statement, hence I don't want to repeat it when selecting FieldB and use the aliased FieldA instead. IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE? What could be a workaround? Note, that this will return multiple rows , hence the DECLARE/SET outside the SELECT statement is no good in my case. PLEASE HELP. P.S. I am using SQL 2008

• MS SQL Specific Tables Hanging at Queries

  - by Jonn

  I have SQL Server 2008. I run a query in a table on a database. The weirdest thing keeps happening. I run a simple select statement on the table. I know there are 62 rows in the table but it gets stuck at row 48 and goes on "querying...". Waited already for hours and it didn't move on from there. I only know of two programs, and one reporting service connecting to that particular table and one other user. Does anyone have any idea on what could be causing this and how I could trace the source of the lock on that table? As a side note, I noted that the logs only had a notice that Autogrow failed the day before I checked. Could this have something to do with it?

• SQL query not working

  - by Ziv

  hi, I'm trying to create a query in an access database for a C# dataset using the query editor but the created method says there is a problem and isn't created correctly. SELECT Discs.* FROM Discs WHERE (Title=@Title OR @Title IS NULL) AND (Type=@Type OR @Type IS NULL) AND (ContainerID=@ContainerID OR @ContainerID IS NULL) AND NOT (@Title IS NULL AND @Type IS NULL AND @ContainerID IS NULL) the error is: Generated SELECT statement. Error in WHERE clause near '@'. Unable to parse query text. the generated select method doesn't have any parameters and is unusable. I've tried the exact same SQL statement in the access query and it worked flawlessly, what am I supposed to be doing differently when transferring it to C#?

• How to write a CASE WHEN statement with multiple DATEDIFF variables

  - by Anne C

  I need to calculate the difference between two dates (facility_start_date, facility_end_date) for a report in Reporting Services in SQL 2005. If the facility_end_date is null then it needs to use the report parameter @EndDate in the calculation. However if the facility_end_date is greater than the parameter @EndDate, then it also needs to use the paramenter @EndDate. The code below works fine except that if the facility_end_date is greater than the parameter @EndDate it is still calculating between the facility_start_date and facility_end_date, rather than between the facility_start_date and @EndDate. Any help would be appreciated. CASE WHEN facility_start_date > facility_end_date THEN NULL WHEN DATEPART(day , facility_start_date) > DATEPART(day , facility_end_date) THEN DATEDIFF(d , facility_start_date , ISNULL(facility_end_date , @EndDate)) - 1 WHEN DATEPART(day , .facility_end_date) > DATEPART(day , @EndDate) THEN DATEDIFF(d , facility_start_date , @EndDate) - 1 ELSE DATEDIFF(d , facility_start_date , ISNULL facility_end_date , @EndDate)) END

• SQL update statement to change the value of a field and not replace it

  - by wzzrd

  I'm in the process of migrating some databases. I have this table that has a couple of hundred rows, and has a filename column. To each record in this table, the filename column needs to be altered and part of a path needs to be prepended to the value that is in that field. The table is like: | 1 | filename1 | | 2 | filename2 | and needs to become: | 1 | path/filename1 | | 2 | path/filename2 | I am not an SQL guru, but I know the basics. This eludes me though. Is there a way to do something like: update table set filename = 'path/' + filename where id = 1;

• big size of database-log SQL-Server 2008

  - by t.kehl

  I have a database which is running under Microsoft SQL Server 2008. Now, I have seen, that the log of the database (ldf-file) is growing to big size. The database-file (mdf) has a size of 630MB and the log-file has a size of 12GB. I ask me now, what the reason for this can be. Is there a tool which let me seeing into the log where I can see, what is the reason for this big size? What can I do to prevent that the log is growing to this big size?

• How to use the merge command

  - by Vaccano

  Say I have a table called Employee (has ID, NAME, ADDRESS, and PHONE columns). (Not my real problem, but simplified to make the question easier.) If I call a sproc called UpdateEmployee and I pass in a @Name, @Address, @Phone and @ID. Can merge be used to easily check to see if the ID exists? If it does to update the name, address and phone? and if it does not to insert them? I see examples on the net, but they are huge and hairy. I would like a nice simple example if possible. (We recently upgraded to SQL 2008, so I am new to the merge command.)

• SQL SELECT from third level table

  - by Spidermain50

  Ok I know little about SQL so bare with me... I'm trying to see if certain values exist in a third level table and I don't know how to go about it. Here is the scenario... I have a Accident table that holds accident information. It has 3 one-to-many child tables (Units, Occupants, NonMotorists). An each of those child tables have their own many-to-many child table (Alcohol). I need to be able to have some way of seeing if a range of values exists in a field in those Alcohol tables. Here is watered down version of what my structure for the tables looks like... --tblAccident--_ PK_AccidentNumber --tblAccidentUnit-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_AccidentNumber --tblAccidentOccupant-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_AccidentNumber --tblAccidentNonMotorist-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_AccidentNumber --tblAccidentUnitAlcohol-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_ForeignKey AlcoholValue <---- THIS IS WHAT I NEED TO SEARCH --tblAccidentOccupantAlcohol-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_ForeignKey AlcoholValue <---- THIS IS WHAT I NEED TO SEARCH --tblAccidentNonMotoristAlcohol-- PK_PrimaryKey FK_ForeignKey AlcoholValue <---- THIS IS WHAT I NEED TO SEARCH I hope this makes some sense as to what i am trying to accomplish. thank you
