Avoid Listing Hundreds Of Columns

Jun 3, 2014

i have a table with a few hundred columns. Each SELECT statement, I list each of the columns, this is taking lots and lots of space and it is difficult to review the code due to its length...Below, I have to list out every column when I only want to use case logic on 1 column. In the next step I will have to list out every single column again

SELECT
ACCT1_NO
,ACCT1_DT
,ACCT1_RISK
,ACCT1_RISK_WEIGHT
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_NAME
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ADDRESS
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ST = CASE WHEN ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ST = ' ' THEN 'DC' END
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_CITY
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ZIP
--,THIS CONTINUES DOWN FOR ANOTHER 150 OR SO ACCTS.
INTO #A1
FROM STAGE.CUSTOMER_ACCTS

Is there a way I can tell SQL to take all of the columns and then list the column where I want to do my case statement. Something like the code below

(which will fail as ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ST will be listed twice.
SELECT *
,ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ST = CASE WHEN ACCT1_CUSTOMER_ST = ' ' THEN 'DC' END
INTO #A1
FROM STAGE.CUSTOMER_ACCTS

How To Avoid Non-published Columns Deletion On Subscriptions' Reset

Apr 26, 2007

Hi all!
I have been doing some testing with transactional replication. I have a table (TEST) with the following columns:

[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT FOR REPLICATION NOT NULL,
[name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CI_AS NULL,
[stock] [int] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_Prueba1_stock] DEFAULT ((0)),

I want the table rows to have an independent stock value for each database. So,
I made a transactional publication with updatable subscriptions, to replicate all the table columns, except the stock column.

The problem is when I reset subscriptions: the table is deleted an created again on the subscriber, so all the data stored at the stock column is lost. I tried to solve this changing the "Action if name is in use" option at the publication. I choose to keep the current object without changes, but I began having problems with the generation of the identity values at the subscriber.

Any suggestions will be welcomed

Thanks in advance ;-)

Transact SQL :: Query To Avoid IF And CASE And Calculations Carried Out Once Only To Speed Up With Common Comparing Columns

Oct 22, 2015

Got a query taking too much time because of lack of cross columns MAX/MIN functions. Consider a similar example where a View is required to reflect distribution of Water among different towns each having four different levels of distribution reservoir tanks of different sizes:In this case the basic table has columns like:

PurchaseDate
TownName
QuantityPurchased
Tank1_Size
Tank2_Size
Tank3_Size
Tank4_Size

Now suppose I need a query to distribute QuantityPurchased in the Four additional Columns computed on the basis depending on the sizes declared in the last four fields,in the same order of preference.For example: I have to use IIFs to check: whether the quantity purchased is less than Tank_A if yes then Qty Purchased otherwise Tank_A_Size itself for Tank_A_Filled

then again IIF but this time to check:

Whether the quantity purchased less Tank_A_Filled (Which again needs to be calculated as above) is less than Tank_B if yes then Tank_A_Filled (Which again needs to be calculated as above) otherwise Tank_B_Size itself for Tank_B_Filled

Product Sub-Typing

Jul 14, 2004

Hi,

I am interested in opinions on the following,

main(product_id, short_text, price, type)
productTypes(type_id, type)
productTables(type_id, tableName)
productA(product_id, field1, field2)
productB(product_id, field1, field2)

To retrieve all products of type 'A', one must know the table name, in this case 'productA'.

Here is one method.

Create a table that contains the table name that corresponds to each product type, thus the stored procedure only needs to recieve the type_id which can be used to obtain the name of the respective table.

Could Not Create A Foreign Key On 2 Unique Columns

Feb 12, 2006

Hello.
Could anyone tell me why it is not possible to create a foreign key on two columns those references on 2 columns in another table? Those 2 columns have each a unique constraint.

I have:
CREATE TABLE T_PK (ID1 INT CONSTRAINT CHK_UNIQUE1 UNIQUE,ID2 INT CONSTRAINT CHK_UNIQUE2 UNIQUE)

CREATE TABLE T_FK (ID1 INT, ID2 INT)

And I want to do:

ALTER TABLE T_FK ADD CONSTRAINT CHK_FK FOREIGN KEY (ID1, ID2) REFERENCES T_PK (ID1,ID2)

I see no reason why this is not working because always
a row in the table T_FK referencing only one row in table T_PK.

Thank you.
Have a nice day.

Is There A Way To Create Columns From A Row Value In A Select Statement?

Jan 30, 2008



Hi!

I have a select question that look like this:


DECLARE @ID uniqueidentifier;

SET @ID = '40bd3052-60f4-414a-99df-ca882c128493';


SELECT

rp.ID AS ReportPackId

,rp.SupplierPartyIdentifier AS SupplierPartyIdentifier

,rpap.AdditionalPartyIdentifier AS AdditionalPartyIdentifier

FROM

ReportPack rp

INNER JOIN ReportPackAdditionalParty rpap

ON rpap.fk_ReportPack = rp.ID

WHERE rp.ID = @ID

The result a get when running the select question is:








ReportPackId
SupplierPartyIdentifier
AdditionalPartyIdentifier

40BD3052-60F4-414A-99DF-CA882C128493
String
addPartyId1

40BD3052-60F4-414A-99DF-CA882C128493
String
addPartyId2

My problem is that the result I want is the following:









ReportPackId
SupplierPartyIdentifier
AdditionalPartyIdentifier
AdditionalPartyIdentifier

40BD3052-60F4-414A-99DF-CA882C128493
String
addPartyId1
addPartyId2

I always know that the ReportPackId and SupplierPartyIdentifier will be identical for all rows because of the Where condition, and therefore I want all AdditionalPartyIdentifiers to be in columns instead of a new row. Is this possible?

When To Create Columns And Metadata For Custom Asynchronous Component Output

Apr 17, 2006

I'm having a tad bit of trouble getting output from an asynchronous component that I've written and am looking for some insight.

This component takes in a name string passed from upstream and parses the name components into standardized output fields. I'm using an asynchronous component because if the name string contains two names ("Fred & Wilma Flintstone") I'm outputting one row for Fred and one for Wilma. I've gotten it to run and with debugging have observed what appeared to me to be proper execution, but zero rows are flowing out of it.

In my ProvideComponentProperties method, I add the three fields and there associated metadata to the OutputColumnCollection. Is this method where this should occur? It's before the PrimeOutput method, so I didn't know if I should be creating the output columns in ProcessInput (i.e., after the output buffer is provided by PrimeOutput.)

In ProcessInput, I'm using AddRow for each input row and another if it contains a second name, setting the value for each index using the buffer's SetString method, to no avail. I can observe it to this point, but then don't know what's in that output buffer (if I'm using the wrong buffer index value, etc)

Thanks.

Create Output Columns Based On Input In Custom Component

Aug 28, 2007



I'm trying to create a fairly simple custom transform component (because I've read that's the easiest one to create) which will take one column from a flat file source and based on the first row create the output columns.
I'm actually trying to write a component that will solve the now well known problem with parsing CSV files in SSIS. I have a lot of source files and all have many columns so a component that can read in the first line from the CSV file and create the output columns automatically will save me lots of time when migrating the old DTS packages.

I have the basic component set up but I'm stuck when trying to override the OnInputPathAttached method because I don't know how to use the inputID to get the first line from the input (the buffer).
Are there any good examples for creating output columns dynamically based on the input buffer?
Should I just give up on on the transform and create a custom source component instead?
