MS SQL Server :: DISTINCT Requires ORDER BY

Order By Because Of Distinct
I have a strange situation (I think). Within a view (which explains why I use the top 100% --> to use an order by) I have this query:

select TOP 100 PERCENT *
from tbOfferDetails
where ofd_id = ofd_parent and ofd_fk_off_id = 100

This gives me the following results:
ofd_fk_off_id off_fk_class_id
100 2753
100 2753
100 2071
100 2753

Now I change the query to:

select distinct ofd_fk_off_id, ofd_fk_class_id from
(select TOP 100 PERCENT *
from tbOfferDetails
where ofd_id = ofd_parent and ofd_fk_off_id = 100
order by ofd_sequence ASC ) as tbOffers

This gives me the following results:
ofd_fk_off_id off_fk_class_id
100 2071
100 2753

In the execution plan, it says that a distinct order by is used on off_fk_class_id. My question is: why is this done? I want only a distinct and not an order by. So is there a way to change this (default?) behaviour.

Distinct With Order By
It gives me this error:
ORDER BY clause (TimeStamp) conflicts with Distinct

The sql statement is:

sql Code:

Original
- sql Code

SELECT DISTINCT division from table order by Stamp DESC

SELECT DISTINCT division FROM TABLE ORDER BY Stamp DESC

I've tried:

sql Code:

Original
- sql Code

SELECT DISTINCT division, Stamp FROM table ORDER BY Stamp DESC

SELECT DISTINCT division, Stamp FROM TABLE ORDER BY Stamp DESC

But this produces duplicate rows, which in this specific case is unacceptable.

Is there any way I can acheive what I want?
Stamp is a TimeStamp if you couldn't figure it out. I just want the last one entered, but all the last ones entered per division. . .

SELECT DISTINCT Type ORDER BY
I am trying to display items from a table that have a type. For each condition there are between 7 and 10 types. I am looping through each type and displaying all items in that type. I am using DISTINCT to pull the types and count them, so I know how many there are and how times to loop. My problem is that DISTINCT is ordering the types alphabetically! I want them in the same order they went into the table. I tried adding ORDER BY primaryID, but got an error that said I also had to select primaryID as well as type, so now I am selecting every item that fits the condition and not just the DISTINCT types! Is there any way to make it order by column_position? I am using SQL 2K.

SELECT DISTINCT And ORDER BY With Aliased Column

This query demonstrates a problem I have run across:

USE AdventureWorks

GO

-- This query works fine.

SELECT DISTINCT FirstName AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

-- This query also works fine.

SELECT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

-- This query returns error 145

SELECT DISTINCT ISNULL(FirstName, '') AS Name1 FROM Person.Contact ORDER BY FirstName

GO

The last query returns the error "ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified".
It will work if I change ORDER BY to use "Name1" instead of "FirstName", but in the situation I have at hand, the query is generated by third-party software and I don't have the ability to change it.
Can anyone explain why what's going on here? Oddly, this same query will work if I run it against SQL Server 2000.

Extract Distinct Information And Order The Results
Hi,

MSSQL 2000 T-SQL

I have a problem in extracting information pertaing to a key value and matching that key value to another transaction but the order is based on another value in the same row.

I've attached a sample of DB data below.

tran_nr ret_ref_no msg_type description
5111     12345        420          reversal
5112     12345        200          auths
5113     15236        200          auths
5114     46587        200          auths
5115     46587        420          reversal

Requirement using the above data is to extract data where the ret_ref_no is the same for more than one row but also check that the msg_type 420 happens before the 200. Is there a way of retrieving the information in this way using the tran_nr coloumn values? The tran_nr values is basically the serial number when the transaction is wrriten away to the DB.

I've managed only to retrive the 1st half of my query whereby the same ret_ref_nr is being used by more then one transaction. Still need to figure out the 2nd part where the msg_type of 420 happens before the 200.

SELECT * FROM SAMPLE
WHERE ret_ref_no in
(
    SELECT ret_ref_no FROM SAMPLE
    GROUP BY ret_ref_no HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
)

Results of query
5111 12345 420 reversal
5112 12345 200 auths
5114 46587 200 auths
5115 46587 420 reversal

If someone could assist with only retreiving the above results in bold to the query analyser i will really appreciate it.

How To Use ORDER BY Clause In An SELECT DISTINCT Sql Query When AS SINGLECOLUMN Is Defined?

My guess is that I cant perform the Order By clauses because it cant find the columns individually. It is essentail I get this to work somehow...

Select DISTINCT On Multiple Columns Is Not Returning Distinct Rows?
Hi, I have the following script segment which is failing:

CREATE TABLE #LatLong (Latitude DECIMAL, Longitude DECIMAL, PRIMARY KEY (Latitude, Longitude))

INSERT INTO #LatLong SELECT DISTINCT Latitude, Longitude FROM RGCcache

When I run it I get the following error: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__#LatLong__________7CE3D9D4'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.#LatLong'."

Im not sure how this is failing as when I try creating another table with 2 decimal columns and repeated values, select distinct only returns distinct pairs of values.

The failure may be related to the fact that RGCcache has about 10 million rows, but I can't see why.

Any ideas?

Trying To Add A NON-DISTINCT Field To A DISTINCT Record Set In A Query.
I need to run a SELECT DISTINCT query acrossmultiple fields, but I need to add another field that is NON-DISTINCTto my record set.Here is my query:SELECT DISTINCT lastname, firstname, middleinitial, address1,address2, city, state, zip, age, genderFROM gpresultsWHERE age>='18' and serviceline not in ('4TH','4E','4W')and financialclass not in ('Z','X') and age not in('1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','0')and (CAST (ADMITDATE AS DATETIME) >= DATEDIFF(day, 60, GETDATE()))ORDER BY zipThis query runs perfect. No problems whatsoever. However, I need toalso include another field called "admitdate" that should be treatedas NON-DISTINCT. How do I add this in to the query?I've tried this but doesn't work:SELECT admitdateFROM (SELECT DISTINCT lastname, firstname, middleinitial, address1,address2, city, state, zip, age, gender from gpresults)WHERE age>='18' and serviceline not in ('4TH','4E','4W')and financialclass not in ('Z','X') and age not in('1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','0')and (CAST (ADMITDATE AS DATETIME) >= DATEDIFF(day, 60, GETDATE()))ORDER BY zipThis has to be simple but I do not know the syntax to accomplishthis.Thanks

DISTINCT To ShortDateString, Not DISTINCT To The DateTime; How?
Hello,
I have written a small asp.net application, which keeps record of the proposals coming from the branch offices of a bank in a tableCREATEd as a TABLE Proposals ( ID smallint identity(7,1), BranchID char(5), Proposal_Date datetime )
This app also calculates the total number of proposals coming from a specific branch in a given date bySELECTing COUNT(BranchID) FROM Proposals WHERE BranchID=@prmBranchID AND Proposal_Date=@prmDateand prints them in a table (my target table).
This target table has as many rows as the result of the "SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) FROM Proposals"and excluding the first column which displays those DISTINCT Proposal_Dates, it also has as many columns as the result of the"SELECT DISTINCT BranchID FROM Proposals". This target table converts the DateTime values ToShortDateString so that we are able to see comfortably which branch office has sent how many proposals in a given day.
So far so good, and everything works fine except one thing:
Certain DateTime values in the Proposals table which are of the same day but of different hours (for ex: 11.11.2005 08:30:45 and11.11.2005 10:45:30) cause some trouble in the target table, where "SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) FROM Proposals" is executed, because (as you might already guess) it displays two identical dates in ShortDateString form, and this doesn't make much sense (i.e. it causes redundant rows)
What I need to do is to get a result like (in a neat fashion :)
"SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT Proposal_Date ) <<DISTINCT ONLY IN THE DAYS AND NOT IN HOURS OR MINUTES OR SECONDS>> FROM Proposals"
So, how to do it in a suitable way?
Thanks in advance.

My Application 'requires' SQL

'An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.' ( well this is only the first line )

When I tried to do something with the database inside my application. So I installed SQL (and I had to install .net framework 2.0 also). And then my applicaton worked.

But now my question: Is it possible to run my application, and use the database, without having to install all those things first, when I want to use it on other computers?

Server "lock Up" That Requires A Reboot To Recover
I have a situation that I was wondering if anyone has ever ran into before. It has to do with one of my MS SQL servers. The hardware is a ALR/Gateway 9000R with 4 PP200's, 1 Gb RAM, and a RAID 5 with 72 Gb storage. The NIC card is an ATM 155 Mbit card connected directly to our fiber backbone.

I have WinNT 4.0 Server Enterprise Edition loaded with SP4 and MS SQL Server 6.5 Enterprise Edition with SP5 installed.

I have 7 seperate active databases on the server supporting 7 different applications. The server has been on-line for approximately 4 weeks and just recently (last Thursday) it has started to "lock up" every couple of days. By lockup I mean that it starts to reject all requests by all users. No one can connect to the server including myself. The MS SQL error log grows and grows until we reboot the server. The error logs are 100 Mb or larger in size due to rejection errors being repeated over and over again.

There has been no change made to the server since initial installation.

The error in the MS SQL error log that keeps on being repeated is...
"Message 17308: Kernelerror - Lazywriter. Process (process ID number) generated access violation; SQL Server is terminating this process."

We have an incident in with Microsoft but they are not responding fast enough.

I was hoping that someone out there may have had this type of occurrance happen before.

Any suggestions?

Update Requires Valid Insert Command
I have created a dataset in code with a select command being a stored procedure. I have used commandbuilder so as to create update, insert statements. The update of the dataset receives error "update requires valid insert command".

From reading, it seems the problem is that the select statement is a stored procedure so data adapter cannot created the insert, update commands.

Can I create an update and insert command using update and insert stored procedures and use those to update the dataset (with multiple records of course) or do I have to create my select command using a select statement rather than the stored procedure?

MSDASQL Error Requires SQL Service Restart
I am having trouble with a linked server using MSDASQL. I'm connecting to a PostgreSQL database and pulling over data. This process has been working fine.

In trying to pull data from a different client database (same schema), I received an error that the MSDASQL couldn't read the column names.

The actual problem I want help on is that after this happens, I am no longer able to make valid connections to any of my Linked Servers using MSDASQL. The only way I can get my other linked servers to work again is to restart the SQL Service. Usually this is impossible for me to do because of the number of active users.

Two questions:

1) Is there another way to restart a more targeted service or sub-set to reset MSDASQL connections, and clear out my problem?

2) Any idea why I'm getting this error connecting to PostgreSQL on a large dataset when it worked fine for a small dataset using the same linked server? "The provider reported an unexpected catastrophic failure."

Any help is appreciated.

I recently run into a senario when a procedure quiered a table without a order by clause. Luckily it retrived data in the prefered order.

The table returns the data in the same order in SQL Manager "Open Table"

So I started to wonder what deterimins the sort order when there is no order by clause ?

I researched this for a bit but found no straight answers. My table has no PK, but an identiy column.

Peace.

Verifying MergeSynchronizationAgent No Longer Requires STA Threading Model
I've seen a few posts in the MSDN documentation (see links below) stating that the MergeSynchronizationAgent no longer requires the STA threading model in SQL Server 2005 SP1. However, I'm still receiving the following exception message in my synchronization code (where it attempts to access the SynchronizationAgent property):

The MergeSynchronizationAgent class must be instantiated on a Single-Threaded Apartment (STA) thread.

I have Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2005 installed on both my server as well as my local client (the client is running SQL Server 2005 Express). How can I verify the correct files are there (e.g. are the some specific date/time values for the RMO/COM objects?

Here's the list of MSDN links mentioned above:

Snapshot Folder Is On Network Drive, Which Requires User And Pwd Login
hi all

when my snapshot folder is on a network drive, on which "simple filesharing" is enabled, i can access that folder without typing a user and password and configuring login security settings.

but in fact the network drive on which the snapshot folder will be located will do have a login and password. (when i go to it with windows explorer, i have to enter my login and password).

won't this cause problems for the replication? as i don't see where to enter net network login when i configure the replication via the wizard.

Thanks for help

Two 64 Bit Quad Core CPU - Requires Windows Server 2003 X64 Enterprise?
With two 64 bit quad core processors on the server, we have 8 processor cores. Does this mean that we'll need Windows Server 2003 x64 Enterprise edition because Standard only supports up to 4-way SMP?

Thanks!

Installing SQL Server Native Client Requires Administrator Rights
Hi All,
We're deploying an app. using a MSSQL Server 2005 (Std. Ed.).
In order to install an ODBC driver for the DB, we've made the installation of Sqlncli.msi part of the package.
It will not run - unless user has Admin priv.s on the klient PC targeted.
Does any one have any experience w. other ways of installing the sql native client (like MDAC) - og just an idea about circumventing the Admin rights problem?
