How Do I Call A Select Statement Properly When The Field Is A Yes/no?
Hello,
i am pretty new to asp. I am trying to do a select statement for sending an email to everyone who is not an admin. the code is below, i know it must be fairly simple, yet i do not know how to do it. With the code below, I select everyone. I want to know how to do it properly, similar to the second which does not work.
Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("SELECT Username, Pass, Gender, FirstName, LastName, Email, NickName FROM tblUsers", conn)
DOES NOT WORK:
Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("SELECT Username, Pass, Gender, FirstName, LastName, Email, NickName FROM tblUsers WHERE Admin = 'N'", conn)
Thanks in advance.

Call A Stored Procedure From A SELECT Statement
Is there a way to call a stored procedure within a SELECT statement?Example;-----------SELECT FirstName, LastName, (EXEC UniqueID_KEYGEN @keyval output) AS UniqueIDINTO #tNewEmployeeFROM EmployeeTable-----------SELECT *FROM #tNewEmployeeThe return from the temp table would have a unique ID ready to insert into another table. Our DBA has this stored procedure to create unique ID's and is to be used on all INSERTS. I was used to having a Identity field do this for me, I don't know why we have to do it his way. Except for the reason of sequence and easily get the next record. But we don't use URL variables, only FORM or SESSION.Thanks for your help in advance.

Need To Set A Field In A Select Statement Equal To Yes Or No If Record Exists In Separate Table
Hey gang, I've got a query and I'm really not sure how to get what I need. I've got a unix datasource that I've setup a linked server for on my SQL database so I'm using Select * From OpenQuery(DataSource, 'Query') I am able to select all of the records from the first two tables that I need. The problem I'm having is the last step. I need a field in the select statement that is going to be a simple yes or no based off of if a customer number is present in a different table. The table that I need to look into can have up to 99 instances of the customer number. It's a "Note" table that stores a string, the customer number and the sequence number of the note. Obviously I don't want to do a straight join and query because I don't want to get 99 duplicates records in the query I'm already pulling. Here's my current Query this works fine: Select *From OpenQuery(UnixData, 'Select CPAREC.CustomerNo, CPBASC_All.CustorCompName, CPAREC.DateAdded, CPAREC.Terms, CPAREC.CreditLimit, CPAREC.PowerNum From CPAREC Inner Join CPBASC_All on CPAREC.CustomerNo = CPBASC_All.CustomerNo Where DateAdded >= #12/01/07# and DateAdded <= #12/31/07#') What I need to add is one more column to the results of this query that will let me know if the Customer number is found in a "Notes" table. This table has 3 fields CustomerNo, SequenceNo, Note. I don't want to join and select on customer number as the customer number maybe repeated as much as 99 times in the Notes table. I just need to know if a single instance of the customer number was found in that table so I can set a column in my select statement as NotesExist (Yes or No) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Problem With IF Statement - Some Reason Not Firing Properly
Hi all, could someone be kind enough to provide me some help into why the following IF statement is not working? Basically, I am trying to find out whether a field in my database has a CONSTRAINT attached to it with a particular name... IF it does have one then drop it and re-create it ELSE simply create one. I have used SELECT * FROM SYSOBJECTS to find whether it exists which according to the results it does EXIST, however my IF statement is not detecting it and I get an error which states: Msg 1781, Level 16, State 1, Line 30Column already has a DEFAULT bound to it.Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 30Could not create constraint. See previous errors. However, surely my IF statement is suppose to be handling this problem and therefore if it does EXIST THEN it should ideally drop the CONSTRAINT and then re-create it but this is not the case... instead the ELSE is always being triggered. After using SYSOBJECTS I copied it directly from the results view into my SQL but still for some reason if my constraint does exist it jumps to the ELSE. Code SnippetIF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM SYSOBJECTS WHERE NAME = '[DF_TBL_SyncTable_OB-DEVUK]') BEGIN ALTER TABLE TBL_SyncTable DROP CONSTRAINT [DF_TBL_SyncTable_OB-DEVUK] ALTER TABLE TBL_SyncTable ADD CONSTRAINT [DF_TBL_SyncTable_OB-DEVUK] DEFAULT 2 FOR [OB-DEVUK] ALTER TABLE TBL_SyncTable ADD [OB-DEV6] TINYINT DEFAULT 2 END ELSE BEGIN ALTER TABLE TBL_SyncTable ADD CONSTRAINT [DF_TBL_SyncTable_OB-DEVUK] DEFAULT 2 FOR [OB-DEVUK] ALTER TABLE TBL_SyncTable ADD [OB-DEV6] TINYINT DEFAULT 2 END Thanks for replies + suggestions + comments Regards, Onam.

Wrapping A Dynamic Sql Call In A Select
I'm expecting to revamp some stored procs so that their selects are executed on a dynamic string that always returns the same columns but varies the sources. I'm concerned that the bread and butter of products like RS and SSIS is the ability to predict what columns, and what column types to expect from a query, but that introducing dynamic sql will complicate using them. I'm motivated not to use temp tables or table vars if possible. I'm also somewhat motivated to learn of a solution that works equally well in 2000 and 2005. I've tried wrapping dynamic calls in a select as shown below but to no avail... After€¦ declare @sqlString nvarchar(4000) set @sqlString = 'select * from [' + @dbName + '].[dbo].[activity]' I€™ve already tried things like€¦. select a.* from exec sp_executesql @sqlString a and select * from exec (@sqlString)

Multiple Tables Used In Select Statement Makes My Update Statement Not Work?
I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian

I Just Want One Entry For Each Call, With SLA Status 'Breach' If Any Of The Stages For The Call Were Out Of SLA.

Select Distinct CallRef, Description, Severity, ProblemRef, Logdate, Status, Due_date, Completed_date; The problem is that my query is returning multiple entries for each stage of the call (see below), whereas I just want one entry for each call, with SLA status 'Breach' if any of the stages for the call were out of SLA.

Field Names From SQL Statement
Is there anyway to determine what the resulting Field Names are going to be from a SQL Statement? For example: SELECT TABLE1.FIELD1, TABLE1.FIELD2, TABLE1.FIELD3, TABLE2.FIELD1 AS ANOTHERNAME FROM TABLE1 INNER JOIN TABLE2 ON TABLE1.PK = TABLE2.FK resulting field names: FIELD1 FIELD2 FIELD3 ANOTHERNAME Seems easy enough splitting all values before "FROM" by comma and doing some manipulation to remove table names and anything before the word "AS". However, it gets more difficult when you have complex CASE statements embedded in you query that may also contain commas. Just a shot in the dark because I don't know if anyone has already done something like this before. Thank you in advance, Jeff

Include ID Field In GROUP BY Statement
I've got a query where i need to return a max value based on a select but one of the fields i need to return in the results is the records primary key ID No. This messes up the MAX bit and means that all results are returned, not just the max one. The query i'm using is very long so i've simplified what i mean by the example below. Say i have a table 'Fruits': ID FruitName Cost1 Apple 0.452 Apple 0.633 Apple 0.524 Pear 0.895 Pear 0.83 And run the query: select max(Cost),FruitName From Fruitsgroup by FruitName It'll correctly return: FruitName CostApple 0.63Pear 0.89 Now i need the ID also returned by my query so i go: select max(Cost),FruitName,ID From Fruitsgroup by FruitName,ID This doesnt return the above results with the ID appended to it, it instead returns: ID FruitName Cost1 Apple 0.452 Apple 0.633 Apple 0.524 Pear 0.895 Pear 0.83 As the ID is always distinct and therefore messes up the grouping. How in this instance would i return the correct result of: ID FruitName Cost2 Apple 0.634 Pear 0.89 Thanks.

Select Max Value Of One Field For Value Of Other Field(s)
I would like to query a table for a max value of one field for a distinct combination of two other fields. Let's call these fields RowID, ObjectID, and ObjectType. RowID is an auto-increment field, so for each distinct combination of ObjectID and ObjectType, there will be many values of RowID. To visualize an example: RowID, ObjectID, ObjectType 1 , 1 , 1 2 , 1 , 2 3 , 1 , 3 4 , 1 , 1 5 , 1 , 2 6 , 1 , 3 Of these rows, I would only want 4, 5, and 6 (max values for distinct combination of ObjectID and ObjectType). I hope I explained this clearly. I would imagine I'd need to use some form of nested query, but nothing I have tried so far has worked. I am using SQL 2005. Thanks!

SQL Update Statement Set Field Value To Column Default
Is there a way to set a field value to the column default in an update statement? Eg. UPDATE Table2 SET field1 = DefaultValue where DefaultValue is the field1 column default in the table definition. The reason I need to do this is when I delete a record from Table1, I need to set the foreign key in Table2 to the default (I don't want to delete the record in Table2, just want to set the key to a default key). I could hard-code the default value in the stored procedure but I think that's just not clean. If I create a new instance of the DB and the default value changes, I'd need to change the stored procedure(s). Just not clean... To avoid a drawn-out discussion, there are reasons why I can't setup a relationship between the two tables and use "ON DELETE SET DEFAULT". Any info greatly appreciated.

Running A LIKE Statement When Searching For A Date Field...
I am trying to run a like statement that has a datetime column and for some reason it does not return any values. I looked in the SQL help files and in states in there that when trying to select using a datetime that the preferred way of doing it is using a like statment. Does anybody know a better way of doing this? Here is my example: (I have dates in this column ie 2006-02-13 11:30:54.220) SELECT * FROM workorderhistory WHERE wheninstalled LIKE '%2006-02%'
