How Do I Imbed A Select Inside A Select


I need a select that gets a value and than appends another value if the criteria is met otherwise nothing is appended.

The statement has a select with an imbedded select and when I execute it I get the error:
Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.

Thia is a crude sample of the statement

SELECT ID + ( select * from tableB where TableB = 0 ) as result1
FROM TableB

Why am I getting this error and how do I fix the statement?
thanks

EXEC Inside CASE Inside SELECT
I'm trying to execute a stored procedure within the case clause of select statement.
The stored procedure returns a table, and is pretty big and complex, and I don't particularly want to copy the whole thing over to work here.  I'm looking for something more elegant.
 
@val1 and @val2 are passed in
 
 
CREATE TABLE #TEMP(
 tempid INT IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
 myint INT NOT NULL,
 mybool BIT NOT NULL
)
 
INSERT INTO #TEMP (myint, mybool)
SELECT my_int_from_tbl,
CASE WHEN @val1 IN (SELECT val1 FROM (EXEC dbo.my_stored_procedure my_int_from_tbl, my_param)) THEN 1 ELSE 0
FROM dbo.tbl
WHERE tbl.val2 = @val2

 
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM #TEMP WHERE mybool = 1

 
If I have to, I can do a while loop and populate another temp table for every "my_int_from_tbl," but I don't really know the syntax for that.
 
Any suggestions?

Using A While Inside A Select Statement
 

Hi All,
Can we use the while loop inside a select statement? Meaning, something like this:
 



Code Block
SELECT DATE,
WHILE (SELECT TOP 1 DATEPART(HH,DATE) FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE) <= 23
(SELECT DATEADD(HH,6,SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE.DATE) )
FROM SC_DATEDIMENSION_TABLE
 
 




What I want to do here is I have a table which has all the dates but with time only representing 00 hrs. I want to display this column and along side, I want to have another column, which displays the date split at 6 hours. So, one left column, there will 4 columns on the right.
 
Hope the question is clear.
 
Thanks a lot.
 
Mannu.

Counter Inside Select Statement?
Hi, can you add a counter inside a select statement to get a unique id line of the rows?
In my forum i have a page that displays a users past posts in the forum, these are first sorted according to their topicID and then they are sorted after creation date. What i want is in the select statement is to create a counter to get a new numeric order.
This is the normal way:
SELECT id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID) ... some more where/order by statements
This is what i want:
DECLARE @tempCounter bigintSET @tempCounter = 0SELECT @tempCounter, id, post, comment, created FROM forum_posts WHERE (topicID = @topicID)... some more where/order by statements and at the end.. (SELECT @tempCounter = @tempCounter + 1)
Anyone know if this can be done?

Declare Inside Select Statement?
I have a need to execute a cursor inside a select statment, but I'm having problems figuring this out. The reason this need to be inside a select statement is that I am inserting the cursor logic into a query expression in PeopleSoft Query.

So! Here's the statement that works:

======================
DECLARE @fixeddate datetime
DECLARE @CVG_ELECT char(1)
DECLARE @Effdt datetime
DECLARE EFFDTS CURSOR FOR
SELECT Z.EFFDT, COVERAGE_ELECT
FROM PS_LIFE_ADD_BEN Z
WHERE Z.EMPLID = '1000'
AND Z.EFFDT <=
GETDATE()
AND Z.PLAN_TYPE = '20'
ORDER BY Z.EFFDT DESC
OPEN EFFDTS
FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
if @CVG_ELECT <> 'E'
break
ELSE
SET @fixeddate = @Effdt
FETCH NEXT FROM EFFDTS INTO @Effdt, @CVG_ELECT
END

CLOSE EFFDTS
DEALLOCATE EFFDTS
PRINT @fixeddate

======================
If I execute this in SQL Query Analyzer it gives me the data I am looking for. However, if I try to paste this into a select statement, it goes boom (actually, it says "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'.", but you get the idea).

Is it possible to encapsulate this inside a select statement?

Multiple Tables Select Performance - SQL 2005 - Should It Take 90 Seconds For A Select?
I have a problem where my users complain that a select statement takes too long, at 90 seconds, to read 120 records out of a database.
The select statement reads from 9 tables three of which contain 1000000 records, the others contain between 100 and 250000 records.
I have checked that each column in the joins are indexed - they are (but some of them are clustered indexes, not unclustered).
I have run the SQL Profiler trace from the run of the query through the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor". That just suggested two statistics items which I added (no benefit) and two indexes for tables that are not involved at all in the query (I didn't add these).
I also ran the query through the Query window in SSMS with "Include Actual Execution Plan" enabled. This showed that all the execution time was being taken up by searches of the clustered indexes.
I have tried running the select with just three tables involved, and it completes fast. I added a fourth and it took 7 seconds. However there was no WHERE clause for the fourth table, so I got a cartesian product which might have explained the problem.
So my question is: Is it normal for such a type of read query to take 90 seconds to complete?
Is there anything I could do to speed it up.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

SELECT Then DELETE Versus Extra Clause In SELECT
Far below (in section "original 3 steps"), you see the following:1. a temp table is created2. some data is inserted into this table3. some of the inserted data is removed based on a join with the sametable that the original select was made fromIn my opinion, there is no way that the join could produce more rowsthan were originally retrieved from viewD. Hence, we could get rid ofthe DELETE step by simply changing the query to be:INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )AND INMESS NOT LIKE '2__' ---- the added line===== original 3 steps (mentioned above) =====CREATE TABLE #details (rec_id UNIQUEIDENTIFIER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,orig VARCHAR(35) NULL,bene VARCHAR(35) NULL,orig_corr TINYINT NULL,bene_corr TINYINT NULL)INSERT INTO #details ( rec_id, orig_corr, bene_corr )SELECT rec_id, 0, 0FROM viewDWHERE SOURCE_SYS NOT IN ( 'G', 'K' )AND MONTH( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = MONTH( @date )AND YEAR( VALUE_DATE_A8 ) = YEAR( @date )DELETE dFROM #details dJOIN viewD v ON ( d.rec_id = v.rec_id )WHERE INMESS LIKE '2__'

Imbed &&<CR&&> In Parameter String?
Greetings - 
 
Am currently developing a set of form letters which will use parameters to complete 'boiler-plate' paragraphs and other information on the letter.
 
One parameter is used to complete the 'Carbon Copy' portion of the letter.  This could involve a singular name, or multiples.  Normal business letter writing rules state that each name should appear on it's own line.  Due to the number of parameters already in use, I would like to devote only one parameter to completion of the 'cc' info.
 
I'm wondering if it's possible for the end-user to imbed a <CR> command of some sort in the string to force multiple names onto seperate lines?
 
If this is possible, can you advise the character string they should use?  I've played with ASCII characters, but am not having any luck.

INSERT-SELECT Depending On The Select:ed Order
I'm doing a INSERT...SELECT where I'm dependent on the records SELECT:ed to be in a certain order. This order is enforced through a clustered index on that table - I can see that they are in the proper order by doing just the SELECT part.

However, when I do the INSERT, it doesn't work (nothing is inserted) - can the order of the records from the SELECT part be changed internally on their way to the INSERT part, so to speak?

Actually - it is a view that I'm inserting into, and there's an instead-of-insert trigger on it that does the actual insertions into the base table. I've added a "PRINT" statement to the trigger code and there's just ONE record printed (there should be millions).

Combining 2 Select With Count And Datediff Into 1 Select. Need Help.
 

I have created two select clauses for counting weekdays. Is there a way to combine the two select together? I would like 1 table with two columns:

Jobs Complete          Jobs completed within 5 days

10                                 5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SELECT     COUNT(DATEDIFF(d, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) - DATEDIFF(ww, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) * 2) AS 'Jobs Completed within 5 days'
FROM         dbo.Project
WHERE     (SDCompleted > @SDCompleted) AND (SDCompleted < @SDCompleted2) AND (BusinessSector = 34) AND (req_type = 'DBB request ') AND
                      (DATEDIFF(d, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) - DATEDIFF(ww, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) * 2 <= 5)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Select COUNT(DATEDIFF(d, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) - DATEDIFF(ww, DateintoSD, SDCompleted) * 2) AS 'Total Jobs Completed'
From Project
WHERE (SDCompleted > @SDCompleted) AND (SDCompleted < @SDCompleted2) AND (BusinessSector = 34) AND (req_type = 'DBB request ')

SELECT WHERE RowID Is Not From Results Of Another SELECT
I have one query which uses a join query to gather all the projects that should show up in someone's list over a period of time (returns and id (int) and name (varchar) paired dataset). I want to do a separate query that takes that list and selects all projects (same paired set ... id and name) EXCEPT where it matches an id on a row of the given result set. The one query looks like this ..DECLARE @startDate datetimeDECLARE @endDate datetimeDECLARE @userId UNIQUEIDENTIFIERSELECT @startDate = ppStartDate FROM ppTablewhere payPeriodID = @payPeriodIDSELECT @endDate = ppEndDate FROM ppTable WHERE payPeriodID = @payPeriodIDSELECT @userId = userID FROM usersTable WHERE userName = @userNameSELECT DISTINCT p.projectID, p.projectNameFROM projectsTable pLEFT JOIN projectMemberhsip m ON m.ProjectId = p.ProjectIdLEFT JOIN timeEntryTable t ON t.ProjectID = p.ProjectIdWHERE t.TimeEntryUserId = @userID AND t.TimeEntryDate >= @startDate AND t.TimeEntryDate <= @endDateORm.UserId = @userID I want to get the same selection from projectsTable WHERE it's not anything from this result set.Haven't been able to get it by modifying the WHERE logic.  Is there a way to select all WHERE id != (resultSet from this SELECT)? TIA!

NULL Values In A SELECT In Another SELECT
Hi,I have a query like this :SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ...The problem is that I don't want to return the results where x3 isNULL.Writing :SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ... AND x3 IS NOT NULLdoesn't work.The only solution I found is to write :SELECT * FROM((SELECTx1,x2,( SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...UNIONSELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ...) as x3FROM ...WHERE ...) AS R1)WHERE R1.x3 IS NOT NULLIs there a better solution? Can I use an EXISTS clause somewhere totest if x3 is null without having to have a 3rd SELECT statement?There's probably a very simple solution to do this, but I didn't findit.Thanks

SELECT * Vs. SELECT Field1, Field2, Etc.
This may be a more general question but I love SQL Server so Ill pose it here. I couldnt find this answer on google so that why Im asking. I was never taught (or I was too high to retain the info) form college in my one DB class.

What are the performace impacts, if any, on doing a "SELECT * FROM table" vs. "SELECT each, column, called, out, but, not, all, of, them FROM table" ?

Select * From Table Does Not Select All Records
I have an unusual problem. I am using VB.Net 2003 and sqlexpress using .NET dataset to insert records into an timecards table. After inserting several records I tried a 'Select * from timecards' and the inserted records where not selected. if I 'select * from timecards order by employee' ( or any other field) the inserted records are selected! The table was created by an Access Upsize command.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

SELECT-Using Correlated Subqueries: Just &&"Name&&" In Results &&amp; 0 Row Affected In One Of MSDN2 SELECT Examples
Hi all,
I copied and executed the following sql code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE):
--SELECTeg8.sql  from SELECT-Using correlated subqueries of MSDN2 SELECT Examples--

USE AdventureWorks ;

GO

SELECT DISTINCT Name

FROM Production.Product p

AND pm.Name = 'Long-sleeve logo jersey') ;

=========================================
I got:

I think I did not get a complete output from this job.  Please help and advise whether I should search somewhere in the SSMSE for the complete results or I should correct some code statements in my SELECTeg8.sql  for obtaining the complete results.

Declaring A Table Variable Within A Select Table Joined To Other Select Tables In Query
Hello,
 
I hope someone can answer this, I'm not even sure where to start looking for documentation on this. The SQL query I'm referencing is included at the bottom of this post.
 
I have a query with 3 select statements joined together like tables. It works great, except for the fact that I need to declare a variable and make it a table within two of those 3. The example is below. You'll see that I have three select statements made into tables A, B, and C, and that table A has a variable @years, which is a table.
 
This works when I just run table A by itself, but when I execute the entire query, I get an error about the "declare" keyword, and then some other errors near the word "as" and the ")" character. These are some of those errors that I find pretty  meaningless that just mean I've really thrown something off.
 
So, am I not allowed to declare a variable within these SELECT tables that I'm creating and joining?
 
Thanks in advance,
Andy

 

Select * from

(

declare @years table (years int);

insert into @years

select

CASE

WHEN month(getdate()) in (1) THEN year(getdate())-1

WHEN month(getdate()) in (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) THEN year(getdate())

END

select

u.fullname

join

systemuserbase u

on

(tx.owninguser = u.systemuserid)

where

Month(tx.Dm_Date) = Month(getdate())-1

and

and tx.dm_billable = 1

&&"(Select All)&&" In Multi-select Enabled Drop Down Parameters
There are several parameters on a report. One of the parameter is a multi-select enabled parameter and I suppressed the value "All" showing as one of the item in the drop down list, simply by filter out the [bha].[bha].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL to 1, as "(Select All)" is pre-assigned to the drop list when multi-select is enabled and it is confusing to show "(Select All)" and "All" in the drop list. However I have another report which is linked to this report and the value which is required to pass to this report for this parameter is "All". Can I pass the "Select All" as a parameter from the other report? If so, how? Thanks.
