Is There Any Way To Train A Portion Of A Training Data Set From A Selected Dataset For Data Mining?
Hi, all experts here,

 

I am wondering is there any way to select only a portion of a data set to train the mining model? In this case, I mean we dont need to split the dataset in advance, what I want to do is being able to select any random portion of a selected dataset to train a mining model. Any advices?

 

I am looking forward to hearing from you and thanks a lot in advance for your advices and help.

 

With best regards,

 

Yours sincerely,

Trigger Problem, Comparing Deleted/inserted Not Working :(
Hello all,
 
I have I trigger where I want to insert all _changed_ rows from the INSERTED table into
a table called tempProducts.
 
If I put this query inside my trigger, I selects exactly the rows I want: rows changed
 



Code SnippetSELECT * FROM INSERTED
EXCEPT SELECT * FROM DELETED

 
 

I the current trigger I have




Code SnippetINSERT INTO dbo.TempProducts (LBTyp, CountryOfOrigin)
SELECT LBTyp, CountryOfOrigin
FROM INSERTED

 
 

but this inserts ALL updated rows, not only the changed ones.
 
So I thought hey, I´ll just combine the two querys and the problem will be solved, like so:



Code Snippet
 
INSERT INTO dbo.TempProducts (LBTyp, CountryOfOrigin)
SELECT LBTyp, CountryOfOrigin
FROM (SELECT * FROM INSERTED
EXCEPT SELECT * FROM DELETED) as Temp
 
 


But for some reason, this won´t work! Why is this? What am I doing wrong?

Bring A Data That Not Already Selected...
Hi I have a problem that seems to be stupid… but still I cant solve it so please if you can help ASAP I'll appreciated.
 
Its 2 tables "Courses" and "Facilitators"
The Course table contain: Course_Id and Course_Name
The Facilitators table contain: Facili_Id and Facili_Name
 
The two tables have (many to many) relation between them.
So I split them into a 3rd table called "Trans"  which contain the PK from each Table
That will be : "Trans_Course_Id" and "Trans_Facili_Id"
 
I put some data on each table… at least 3 records and related some of them in the "Trans" table
 
Now im looking for an SQL command that brings me All the "Facili_ID" and "Facili_Name" for a specific course. And only those who is not already selected by the same course?
 
Like if I have the data in the "Courses" tableid: 1 and Name: VB
Id:2 and Name: C#
 
And in "Facilitators" table:
Id:1 and Name: Adam
Id:2 And Name: George
Id:3 and Name: Sam
 
Now in the relation table "Trans"
 
Course_Id:1 and Facili_Id:1
Course_Id:2 and Facili_Id:1
Course_Id:2 and Facili_Id:3
 
Now I want the SQL Commands that brings me the he "Facili_ID" and "Facili_Name"
For Course_id "For example" and should not be selected by the same course…
That would be:
 
Id:2 And Name: George
Id:3 and Name: Sam
 
And the same for eash time I pass the course_id for the command
Thank you.

Importing Selected Csv Data Into SQL Tables
Hi,

I hope you can help me.

I've got a csv that I need to import.  It's about 74 columns wide and 2500 rows long.  What I need to do is select the first 3 columns from the columns from the csv and put them into one table and then put every 7 columns (plus the 1st column as the primary key) into a different table.

I've not explained that very well, basically it's like this...

     A     B     C     D     E     F     G     H      I     J     K     L     M     N     O      P

cl                     C1


Table 2

How WCF Can Get New Inserted SQL Data ?

This service provide methods for retriving history data when request.
So far so good.
 
My WCF service need also to know when a particular table (ALARMS tabel ) gets updated with DELETE, INSERT, OR UPDATE. This because my client application (WinForm) need to refresh a datagrid binding to that ALARMS table.
 
In other words my WCF servcie would send a callback event to my client when it as been notice for a change..
 
But my problem is how my WCF service can be notify from an update in my SQL table ?
I have tried SQLDependency class, but I give up was not working properly...and hard to know the xact context you are runing on.
Was thinking also of having a timer whcih pool every 1s by calling my tabel store procedure and verifiy is somerow ha changed....
 
What to do, how to do, what is the best way and thred safe method
 
Thnaks for help and advise

Prevent Data Being Inserted Twice
I have a table with 3 columns: ID, Status, DateTime.

I created a stored procedure to insert a staus value for each ID. This will run every hour. The DateTime stores the time, date when the Status was inserted.

If the procedure was to be run a second time in hour window I do not want any Status to be inserted.

Note: that I cannot rely on the procedure being run at exactly the right time - if it was scheduled to run on the hour (i.e at 1:00, 2:00, 3 :00 etc) but didn't run until 1:20 it sould still be able to run at 2:00.

Does anyone know if there is anyway I can gaurd against this?

Comparing SQL Data Against XLS
Hello,

I am looking for some "best practice" information on how to properly setup a comparison of SQL data -vs- an Excel spreadsheet. I've never performed this task before, and will likely have to do more in the future. How can I define the range of cells to be used from the xls? There are over 1000 rows in the xls, so a Select * from dbo.table where dbo.column = 'x' just isn't practical.

Any information/direction that's out there is most appreciated!

Copy Selected Column Data From Table To Another During Upgrade Of App
Hi,
I need to write a script that will be called during the database upgrade of my application. This is part of reorg of the tables. The script has to get data for say 4 columns from table A and insert it into another table B. Table B has identity insert column and remaining 4 columns matching the ones to be copied. The data is dependent on user database, hence number of records needs to be copied might be different. Also the columns can have null values.

I tried using bcp Command as follows..
bcp "select colA,colB,colC,colD from A" queryout "c: empA.dat" -t" " -r"" -c

I'm able to get the dat file, but not the format file. Can anyone tell me how to get it using query file with -c option. Also if there is better option to copy data, kindly let me know.

This is very critical. Appreciate your help.

Thanks,

The Text Data Type Cannot Be Selected As DISTINCT Because It Is Not Comparable.
I'm having a problem building a query for an application I'm writing. Basically, there are a bunch of records in a table, and some of them may have the same identifier code. I only want one of each identifier code. The table looks like this:
 
Memo
---------
Msg_Identifier         varchar(60)
Memo_ID               int (pk)
Subject                  varchar(64)
Message                text
Priority                   int
Deleted                  int
 
 
My query:
 
SELECT DISTINCT Msg_Identifier, Memo_ID, Subject, Message, Priority FROM Memo WHERE Deleted = '0'

 
 
When I run this query, I get "The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable."
 
I only want Msg_Identifier to be the distinct field, and it's obviously not set up as text. I've used SELECT DISTINCT in the past but I don't ever recall hitting an issue like this. What's the best way to do it?

I don't want to alter the databaseschema in any way.The only way I can think off the top of my head is to assign MD5checksum values to rows and then compare the checksums in the masterand copy, however, to do it efficiently, you'd have to save the MD5values as you go, which would involve altering the schema on the mastertable.

Comparing Data - SQL Issues
Hi

I am relatively new to SQL. Basically i am trying to compare data that doesn't match properly. Firstly one set of data has spaces, secondly the first part of the data is missing.

After researching I am going to remove the spaces with the replace and only query the final 8 number - this would dow hat I want but I cannot get it to work.

Here is my code.


Code:



update aleads as a, leads as l
set a.lid = l.lid
where replace(right(a.htel,8), ' ', '') = replace(right(l.htel,8), ' ', '');




Of course this didn't work but I do not know why - or how to actually achieve this.

Comparing Data Structures
Hello,
i am currently in a project involving standardization of SCADA. For this we have two different oracle servers. Is there any possiblility to compare the 2 data structures. THe main reason to compare the data structure is to get a picture on which one is better for us. Since i´m a control engineer, i don´t have any idea about DBMS. I need an effective solution to find the most efficient DB by comparing the existing ones.

 
For me efficiency means, i would prefer a server which requires less maintenance. So how feasible it is, if i use a SQL query tool or a compare tool. I need to know whether i can first of all get a solution using such tools.Tthe DB has all the information related to the process and parameters. As i mentioned earlier i want to figure out the dissimilarities in either DB and want to make an analysis with this solution.


I would be happy if someone could help me on this by suggesting some tools or books.

A shopping cart, which holds allthe skus that were returned, and a holding table, that holds all theskus that were submitted. I want to then delete all the skus in theholding page that match the skus in teh cart (because they are goodskus) which will then leave the unmatched skus in the holding table.I'll then scroll out the contents of the holding table, to show them theskus that were not found in the database.(confused yet?)So what I want to do is have some sql that will delete from the holdingtable where the sku = the sku in the cart. I've tried writing this, butit dosn't work.I tiried this delete from holding_table where sku = cart.skuI was hoping this would work, but it dosn't. Is there a way for me to dothis?Thanks!Bill*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Comparing Data And Integrity Between Two Tables
Hi everyone,

I have recently converted my DTS packages to SSIS and deployed them to the new server. I have the 2000 and 2005 server running concurrently, all that is left for me to do is compare the the tables generated by the DTS and SSIS packages to see if they are the same.


How do I go about comparing the tables, which are from two different servers using SQL server 2005?



Thank you inadvance:)

Comparing Data In Tables/views.
I am looking for an efficient mechanism to compare data between 2 tables/views.

Rationale:
I use a proprietary tool to data transfer between 2 databases. The tool itself uses Microsoft SSIS (integration service) to transfer data. I want to make sure that the data is transfered properly. Both the source and target database are not live database. The source and target database are in seperate servers.

SSIS Data Flow Execution Monitoring And Logging
Has anyone come up/determined a generic way to capture and log indicative information within a data flow in SSIS - e.g., a number of rows selected from the source, transformed, rejected, loaded, various timestamps around these events, etc.? I am trying to avoid having to build a custom solution for each of the packages that I will have (of which there will be dozens).  Ideally, I'd like to have some sort of a generic component (such as a custom transformation) that will hide the implementation details and provide a generic interface to the package. 

It is not too difficult to achieve something similar on the control flow level, but once you get into data flows things get complicated.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Incorrect Data Is Inserted Into The SQL Table From OLEDB Command
I have an OLEDB command in a package that inserts the data into two tables.
When I run the package, the data is getting inserted as divided by 100 of original data for derived columns.
For example: Say col1 is my input column from flat file with value 1000. I am dividing it by 100 in Derived column and then inserting into the table.
So the value 100 should be inserted into the table. But it is not so, the value 1 is getting inserted.
 
Two Tables involved here have referential integrity constraints between them. SQL Script for the operation I am doing looks like the one just below
 
INSERT INTO PrimaryKeyTable(ID,
           FirstName)
       VALUES
           (?,?)   
          
If @@rowcount=1
BEGIN
      DECLARE  @MaxID as int
 
      SELECT   @MaxID =max(AutoID) FROM  dbo.PrimaryKeyTable --AutoIncremented column
           
      INSERT INTO  [ForeignKeyTable]
                          (    [MaxID]
                                ,[Cost]
                                ,[MarkDownDollars]
                                 ,[VersionCode]
                           )          
 
      VALUES(@MaxID,?,?,'act')
 
END
 
But this script did not work in OLEDB commandL
 
So I wrote the below script for which I am facing the problem mentioned
 
 
INSERT INTO PrimaryKeyTable(ID,
           FirstName)
       VALUES
           (?,?)   
    If @@rowcount=1
BEGIN       
          
            DECLARE @Cost AS  money
            SET @Cost=?
            DECLARE  @MarkDownDollars AS  money
            SET @MarkDownDollars=?
            DECLARE @MaxID as int
 
            SELECT   @MaxID =max(AutoID) FROM  dbo.PrimaryKeyTable
           
            INSERT INTO  [ForeignKeyTable]
                          (    [MaxID]
                                ,[Cost]
                                ,[MarkDownDollars]
                                 ,[VersionCode]
                           )          
 
      VALUES(@MaxID,@Cost,@MarkDownDollars,'act')
 
END

Distributed Data Synchronization - Comparing Timestamp
Hello,

I am designing a distributed application where a central SQL Server 2005 database will need to be synchronized with remote SQLExpress databases via a WebService. Data can be edited at the cental db (by our connected applications) or on the local SQLExpress dbs running on the users machines (by this disconnected application).

Now, how can I use the timestamp column to determine the most recent update. The most recent update to me is not the user that most recently invoked the syncing WebService, but the most recent time when the change was made to the data locally vs the change time at the central server. Because a user could make a change on his laptop on Monday but not synchronize it till Friday. I dont want the Mon data to overwrite data of Tues-Fri being overwritten simply based on assumption that a late sync is infact the most recent change.

The initial data will be downloaded to the local SQLExpress db via the WebService so the timestamp data in the table will come along with it.

When a user modifies data in this disconnected SQLExpress db, can that be compared to modifications on the central db using timestamps to determine if the users data being synced is older or newer than the data on the server? I understand timestamps are incremental values, but are they still sensitive to the users timezone since the central server will be a diff timezone then the user.

Comparing Data In Two Tables To Find Missing Records
I have two tables of book information. One that has descriptions of thebook in it, and the isbn, and the other that has the book title,inventory data, prices, the isbn.Because of some techncal constraints I won't get into now, I can'tcombine them both into one table. No problem. Things are going fine aslong as there is a description in the one table to corrispond to theisbn and other data in the other table.However, about half of the products are not yet entered into thedescrition table. I'd like to run a sql query that pulls up all theisbns that don't exist in the other. In other words, I'd like to get aquery that tells me exactly which isbns do not yet have descrition datain them. I know there is some sql that says to search from one filewhere the number does not exist in the other, but it slips my mind. Cansomeone help me on this please?Thank you!Bill*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Comparing Data In Two Consecutive Rows From A Single Table
I'm trying to come up with an elegant, simple way to compare twoconsecutive values from the same table.For instance:SELECT TOP 2 datavalues FROM myTable ORDER BY timestamp DESCThat gives me the two latest values. I want to test the rate ofchange of these values. If the top row is a 50% increase over the rowbelow it, I'll execute some special logic.What are my options? The only ways I can think of doing this arepretty ugly. Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!B.

Comparing Datetime Data Stored As Char(CCYYMMDD)
 

Can you compare chars stored as ccyymmdd correctly?
 
Field1>=field2
 
I was thinking you needed to cast this information as a datetime value before you could do it.
 
Thanks
