How Do I Split A Column Result By A Nonalphanumeric Character?


I have a column that returns client numbers.

The client numbers are 4-6 characters in length.  A period (.) is added to the end of the client number, and then one last digit (1-4) is affixed at the end to denote a categorization.

In SQL, I need to figure out how to divide these results into two columns, one for the client number and one for the categorization number.

EG:  client #4334.1 would become 4334 for client # and 1 for categorization number

or

         Client #424561.3 would become 424561 for Client # and 3 for categorization number.

I have to strip out the period in the process and leave myself with just the numeric characters divided into two columns.

Ive been researching my brains out on string queries and substring queries and I can't figure out how to parse out the period and/or to have SQL understand that I need everything BEFORE the period for one column and everything AFTER the period for the second.

Is it possible to do this?  I really need help on this one.


Thank you :)

Can I Split A Field Based On A Character?
Here's a question for the SQL gurus out there:
I have a varchar(20) field DIAGNOSISCODE in a table that can either be null, or contain up to 3 comma-separated codes, each of which relates to a description in another table. For example, some sample rows might be
8060
8060,4450
8060,4123,3245
Now I need to structure a query to return these values from this single field as three fields CODE1, CODE2, CODE3, with NULL as appropriate for example
CODE1=8060, CODE2=4450, CODE3=NULL.
I have been using CASE along with CHARINDEX and PATINDEX but it it becoming extremely messy. Can anyone think of a "neater" way to return three fields from this one field?
Any help very greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Simon.

Read Chinese Character From SQL(SQL Server 2005) Database Table Column And Display Chinese Character
Hi!

I have a table like this below and it doesn't only contain English Names but it also contain Chinese Name.
CREATE TABLE Names
(FirstName NVARCHAR (50),
 LastName NVARCHAR (50));
I tried to view the column using SQL Query Analyzer, It didn't display Chinese Character.
I know that SQL Server 2005 is using  UCS-2 Encoding and Chinese Character uses Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) Encoding.
I want to read the FirstName and LastName columns and display in Window Form Data Grid and ASP.NET Grid View.
I tried to use this code below and it didn't work. It convert some of the English Name to Chinese Character and it display the chinese character and some still in the original unreadable characters.
Does anybody know how to read those character from SQL Table and display the correct Chinese Character without converting the English Name into Chinese also?
Thanks
       
        int codePage =  950;
        StringBuilder message = new StringBuilder();
        Encoding targetEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(codePage);
        byte[] encodedChars= targetEncoding.GetBytes(str);
        .
        message.AppendLine("Byte representation of '" + str + "' in Code Page '" + codePage + "':");

Comparing A Column List Split To A Table.
Let me see if I can explain my situation clearly.I have a table with the columns:answer_id, question_id, member_id, answer- answer_id is the primary key for the table.- question_id relates to another table with questions for a user. Thetable holds the question and the possible choices in a varchar fieldseparated by a delimiter.- member_id is self-explanatory- answer is a varchar field of all the choices the user selected,separated by a delimiter.Here is my problem.I am trying to search all members that have answered, say, question_id= 2 where they selected 'brown' as one of their choices.i can do this if they selected ONLY that item, but not multiple items.The problem is this portionanswer in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlist.....I need this to be something like....function_to_return_all_separated_answers(answer) in(select valu from dbo.iter_intlistThe current way, it is only returning members that have an answer'Brown', not 'Brown, Blue' in their answer field.

Need To Find An Easy Way To Split A Column In Table Without Using Cursor Or Temp Tables
Hi ,
I have two tables within a SQL database. The 1st table has an identified column and column which lists one of more email identifers for a second table,
e.g.
ID     Email
--     ----------
1      AS1 AS11
2      AS2 AS3 AS4 AS5
3      AS6 AS7

The second table has a column which has an email identifier and another column which lists one email address for that particular identifier, e.g.
ID      EmailAddress
---     ------------------
AS1      abcstu@emc.com
AS2      abcstu2@emc.com
AS3      abcstu3@emc.com
AS4      abcstu4@em.com
AS5      abcstu5@emc.com
AS6      abcstu6@emc.com
AS7      abcstu7@emc.com
AS11     abcstu8@emc.com
I need to create a stored procedure or function that:
1. Selects an Email from the first table, based on a valid ID,
2. Splits the Email field of the first table (using the space separator) so that there is an array of Emails and then,
3. Selects the relevant EmailAddress value from the second table, based on a valid Email stored in the array
Is there any way that this can be done directly within SQL Server using a stored procedure/function without having to use cursors?

Many Thanks,

Wildcard Search - Column Value Containing % Character
Hi All,

I have a company table with CompanyName and Address details.
In the Company Name field - I have got companies with names like - 'The 1% Club', '99% Pure Water', 'The 1% Golfer' etc...

I want to search for Companies with % using the LIKE clause - Say for ex.

SELECT CompanyName from Company WHERE CompanyName LIKE 'The 1%%'

I was expecting the above query to return - All Companies starting with 'The 1%' - So from the above list - I expected it to return - 'The 1% Club' and 'The 1% Golfer'.

Unfortunately the query isn;t accepting % in the WHERE LIKE clause except for the wildcard character.

Is there a way out to escape the Wildcard Characters present in the Field Values while searching.

Thanks,

Character To Numeric Conversion Error- Select Statment On Char Column
Hi guys/ladies I'm still having some trouble formatting a select statement correctly.
I am using a sqldatasource control on an aspx page. It is connecting via odbc string to an Informix database.
Here is my select statement cut down to the most basic elements.
SELECT     commentFROM         informix.ipr_stucomWHERE     (comment > 70)
The column "comment" contains student grades ranging from 0-100 and the letters I, EE, P, F, etc. Therefore the column is of a char type. This is a problem because I cannot run the above statement without hitting an alpha record and getting the following error
"Character to numeric conversion error"
How can I write this statement where it will work in the datasource control and have it only look at numeric values and skip the alpha values?
I have tried case with cast and isnumeric... I don't think that I have the formating correct.
I have also used:
WHERE (NOT (comment = '  I' OR comment = ' EE' OR comment = ' NG' OR comment = ' WP' OR comment = ' WF' OR comment = '  P' OR comment = '  F'))
This works but is very clunky and could possibly break if other letters are input in the future. There has to be a better way.I am sorry for my ignorance and thanks again for your help.

Column Name As The Result Of A Query?
Simple example would look like that in MS SQL

SELECT 'a' AS (SELECT language_name FROM language WHERE language_id = 1)

So that the display is

English
a

as we assume that

SELECT language_name FROM language WHERE language_id = 1

returns only English

I have tried to that with a variable but it does not work

declare @that as varchar(15);
set @that = (select language_name_u from language where language_id = 1);
select 'a' as @that

LOL

I just tried another way as i was going to post

declare @that as varchar(15);
set @that = (select language_name_u from language where language_id = 1);
select 'a' as "@that"

and it worked!

Posting anyway so people might answer with a better solution with no variable

SQL 7: One Column's Value Is Repeated Throughout Entire Result Set
I'm using the following query to look in a log file and show somestatistics. It counts the total number of views and the total numberof unique users who have viewed a particular item (the "id" and"title" fields are associated with the item).SELECT title, COUNT(id) AS NumberViews, COUNT(DISTINCT UID) ASNumberUniqueUsers, Type, idFROM ActivityLogWHERE dtTime >= 'Nov 1 2004 12:00AM' AND DtTime <= 'Nov 1 200512:00AM'GROUP BY Title, Type, hdnIdORDER BY TopViewed descThis works fine on SQL Server 2000 (our development machine), but onSQL Server 7 (our production machine), the title column has the samevalue for every row. The other columns show the correct values.If I remove the "ORDER BY" clause, then it works fine. If I removethe "COUNT(DISTINCT UID)" column, it works fine. If I totally removethe WHERE clause, it works fine.Any ideas? It seems like a bug since it works fine on sql2k. I'vetried adding OPTION (MAXDOP 1) to the end of the query, but thatdidn't help.We're using SQL Server 7.0 sp1, and my boss doesn't want to riskupgrading to sp4 because it might screw up all of our otherapplications. I looked through all of the sp2 through sp4 bug fixes,and I didn't see anything specifically mentioning this.Thanks.

Dynamic Name Of Result Column In S-proc?
How can I make this stored procedure concept work:

-----------------------------------------------
Create Procedure MyProc @MyValue varchar(5)
As
Declare @ColumnName as varchar(11)
Set @ColumnName = 'Price_' + @MyValue
Select Sum(Price) As @ColumnName --????
From MyTable where Item = @MyValue
Return
-----------------------------------------------

Using @MyValue = 23 should make the Sum(Price) column name 'Price_23'. It's not working. What am I doing wrong?

Adding Autonumber Column To A Query Result
I have a query that returns a list of results from the database and insert the results into a datatable. Is there any way to add a column to the query result that has autonumbers in it. for example the first record would have 1 the next 2, the next 3, and so on?

Cannot Copy Column Names View Result Set
In SQL 2005 - when I display the results of a View and Copy all rows and columns, the resulting Paste in Excel does not include the column names.

How can I set SQL 2005 so the names of the columns will come along with the content of the copy function?

Background:

When I am using a SQL Query (instead of a view) I have the ability to control whether or not I am able to Include the Column Headers when copying or saving results.  The control exists in the Options > Query Results > Results to Grid > Include column headings etc.

My question is how to get this same ability when attempting to copy the results of a VIEW vs. a Query. 

Thank you,
Poppa Mike
