Need To Union And Group Split Databases
We had a divestiture within our company. Now what used to be contained in one database in now split into two databases. One showing all history and one being all current data as of 6/1/2008. Is there an easy way to Union or Join these? Right now I'm currently doing a simple UNION ALL, but can't group the two select statements:
SELECT
Year,Location,QtySold
FROM
historydb
UNION ALL
SELECT
Year,Location,QtySold
FROM
currentdb
Can't do a subset and group both of these selects. How would some of you pro's do this? Right now I can put this in a simple view and then create a SP off of this view that would do this grouping, but it seems like I should be able to do it all in one query. Thanks.

UNION With A Max On Split Date/Time Fields
I have 2 tables, each with one ID field, a separate Date and Time fields and a number of other fields. The tables contain duplicates on the ID field. I want to do a UNION keeping only the record with the latest Date and Time. This would work: SELECT MyTab.myKeyField, Max(MyTab.myDate) AS myDate FROM (SELECT myKeyField, myDate from Table1 union SELECT myKeyField, myDate from Table2) AS MyTab GROUP BY MyTab.myKeyField But is only taking care of Date, not Time (some records have the same date but different times) The other problem is, when I add more fields, I have to include them in the GROUP BY clause, and this way I end up with duplicates (because some other fields have different values) Is there a way to do this?

When To Split Up Databases?
I'm converting our companies binary file data to SQL Server data. I'm a developer, not a dba, and can't seem to get my company to hire a dba, so I need some advice from the community. I have an application running right now, it looks like it will take a week to run. Here's my estimates of the database size once it 's finished being loaded: Database Size: 20 Gig Largest Table (# of rows): 15 million rows Number of Tables: 37 Other Details: I'm going to use Web Merge Replication to replicate filtered data to 500 customers. QUESTION: At what point do I need to consider splitting the database up onto multiple servers? Or, is it better to split up the database into multiple databases on one server? Someone suggested to me to split up each customers data into a separate database on the server (i.e. ~500 databases). Is this an accepted practice?

Another 'keep Together' Problem/group Split Across Page Break
How can I stop a group from being split across 2 pages? 1 table group 1 detail group consisting of 2 rows, can be N number of these per table group e.g. TG1 DG1row1 DG1row2 DG2row1 DG2row2 ... DGnrow1 DGnrow2 TG2 DG1row1 DG1row2 DG2row1 DG2row2 ... DGnrow1 DGnrow2 <--page break should occur here--> TG3 DG1row1 DG1row2 DG2row1<--but it is actually appearing somewhere like this--> DG2row2 ... DGnrow1 DGnrow2 If TG can fit on one page, then it should do so I can't put a page break after a group, as it may only be 4 rows, this would be too wasteful

How To Group/list Top 3 Of Each Category W/o Using Union?
Hello,So my table contains say 100,000 records, and I need to group thecategories in fld1 by the highest count of subcategories. Say fld1contains categories A, B, C, D, E.All of these categories contain subcategories AA, AB, AC, AD,...AJ, BA,BB...BJ, CA, CB, CC...CJ, etc in fld2.I am counting how many subcategories are listed for each category. LikeA may contain 5 of AA, 7 of AB, 3 of AC, 11 of AD...1 for the rest and20 of AJ. B may contain 2 of BA, 11 of BB, 7 of BC, and 1 for the rest.I want to pick up the top 3 subcategory counts for each category. Wouldlook like this:Cat SubCat CountA AJ 20A AD 11A AB 7B BB 11B BC 7B BA 2So event though each category contains 10 subcategories, I only want tolist the top 3 categories with the highest counts as above. If I justdo a group by and sort I can get this:Cat SubCat CountA ... ...AAAAAA...B ... ...BBBBB...But I just want the top 3 of each category. The only way I can think ofto do this is to query each category individually and Select Top 3, andthen Union these guys into one query. The problem is that I have tohardcode each category in the Union query. There may be new categoristhat I miss. Is there a way to achieve what I want without using Union?Thanks,Rich*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Inner Group Header Repeats After Page Break Caused By Outer Group
Hi, I have a simple report containing a table with a grouping. The group has a header row. I had a requirement to display a fixed no of rows in a page. In order to acomplish that I created an outer group with expression as "Fix((RowNumber("tblReportBody")-1)/10)". The approach is fine and I am able to successfully insert page break after the required no of rows. The issue I am facing is after the page break the group headers of inner group is getting displayed which I do not want. I want to display group header only if the group changes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Without outer group (used for page break) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page: 1 Inner Group header1 (visible) Details... <normal page break> Page: 2 Details... Inner Group header2 (visible) Details... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Without outer group (used for page break) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page: 1 Outer Group header (Hidden) Inner Group header1 (visible) Details... <force break by outer group> Page: 2 Inner Group header1 (visible) Details... Inner Group header2 (visible) Details... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would appreciate if you can suggest a way in which I can achive conditional page break without repeating inner group headers on next page.

What's Microsoft Doing About Providing Page Numbering Per Group And Total Pages Per Group?
Hi! I've posted a feedback with Microsoft to see if we can get them to fix the issue described below, but so far no one from Microsoft has commented to let us know what they're doing about this problem! I'm posting this here to see if maybe we can get more people to rate this feedback or chime in on what a pain it is! Please feel free to add your own comments or how you had to work around this issue and whether or not you think this is something Microsoft should be addressing NOW. https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=311679 Provide Individual Page Numbering per Group and Total Pages per Group Currently in a Reporting Services report, you can't readily reset the page number for each group in a table, nor can you display the total number of pages per group. For example, if I'm printing invoices and each invoice is a separate group, I'd like to be able to print "Page 1 of 5" , "Page 2 of 5" etc. for the first invoice, then "Page 1 of 3" when the next invoice begins, and so on. This was easy in Crystal Reports. I realize that Crystal Reports has a two-pass process that enables that kind of pagination. However, this is REALLY important functionality that's just missing from Reporting Services and I'm hoping you'll provide it REALLY SOON! Yeah, I know there are work-arounds if you can know exactly how many rows of information there are on each page. But gosh! That's not practical, especially if you have second level groups inside the main group or text blocks in rows that can 'grow' to more than one line. I've read a couple of work-arounds, but none of them works correctly and consistently when more than one user is running the same report or when you print the report while you're looking at it on the screen. I still may need access to the overall report page number and the overall total number of pages, so don't get rid of that. It's just that if you're doing this already for the entire report, I don't see why you can't do it per group! Lots of people have been asking for this for years, and I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented. I've read a few articles on this topic, but no one has come up with a decent work around. My theory is that Microsoft should be addressing this immediately. This is major functionality that's just plain missing from SSRS and should have been there from the start. If anyone from Microsoft can let us know what's going on with this issue or if anyone would like for me to clarify this further, feel free to let me know. Thanks! Karen

Group Beneath Recursive Group Problem. Is This A Bug Or Am I Missing Something In Regards To Scope?
I have an RDL with two groups. The first group is a recursive group for divisions and offices. The second group is on employees. I want a hierachical report showing total hours for division, office and employee. The recusrive groups works fine and gives me the correct total for division and office. The second groups gives me the correct employees but they each have the total of the office they are within. Example data set is Loc Emp Hrs Date ParentLoc Div DivA-NY John 5 1/1/2008 Div DivA-NY John 3 1/2/2008 Div DivA-NY Mary 6 1/1/2008 Div DivA-LA Mike 2 1/1/2008 Div DivA-LA Mike 1 1/2/2008 Div DivA-LA Tom 4 1/1/2008 Div The result rendered is; DIV 21 DIV-NY 14 John 14 1/1/2008 5 1/2/2008 3 Mary 14 1/1/2008 6 DIV-LA 7 Mike 7 1/1/2008 2 1/2/2008 1 Tom 7 1/1/2008 4 The first group is grouped on Loc with a parent of ParentLoc. The summation of hours is sum(fields!hrs,"table1_Group1",recursive) The second group is grouped on employee. The summation of hours is sum(fields!hrs). I have also tried addeing scopes of both group 1 and 2 but that has no effect.

Login For Domain Local Group And Global Group
I have one domoain in the forest. The domain level is set to Windows 2000 native mode and forest level is set to mixed mode. My SQL server 2005 server joined to this domain. I added a brand new domain local group and add a normal user account to this domain local group. I login to the SQL server 2005 server and make a query "SELECT * FROM sys.login_token". I cannot see my domain local group in sys.login_token. However, if I add my account to a global group, I can see it there. Then, I setup another forest. This time, I have domain level set to Windows 2003 mode and forest level is set to Windows 2003 native mode. I do the same testing. This time, I can see my domain local group in sys.login_token. Why does SQL server 2005 has this limitation? Is it a bug?

T-SQL Problem...selecting TOP 1 Of Each GROUP In GROUP BY?
Hi,I was hoping someone may be able to help me with a tricky T-SQLproblem.I need to come up with a SELECT statement that does basically thefollowing:Select RCRD_REFNO, MAX(MODIF_DTTM) as MODIF_DTTM from[StageDb].[dbo].tblPersonInfo group by RCRD_REFNOHowever, I need to select ONLY the TOP 1 of each group (i.e. only 1record for each unique RCRD_REFNO). The problem is of course that if Iadd 'top 1' after select, it only brings back 1 record full stop,rather than 1 for each group!Now, I have previously come up with a similar query that DOES do thissuccessfully, but it relies on a criteria (such as a unique identifier)-unfortunately, the nature of the table I'm using for this currentjob means that it actually doesn't have a primary key, as it'ssimply a staging area for raw data, and can even have completelyidentical records in it. I think the only way I'm going to be able todo it is to literally use the 'TOP' command somehow, but am notsure how to adapt the above to implement it...I'd be very gratefulfor any advice.Many thanks

To Split Or Not To Split
I have a database with a "large" table containing date based information Basically they're reservations. I've thought about creating a new table and adding any records from past years to this table. For the most part only current reservation need to be searchable, but in some circumstances it would be useful to be able to search through the archive too. so, my questions!!! Is 8,000 or so rows of data "large" and unwieldly in SQL terms? Would splitting this data into 2 tables - one small table for current and future reservations and one larger archive table then using a UNION SELECT query to make archive information seachable be a significant improvment on server resources/load or am I making the whole thing more complicated than it need be as 8,000 rows of data is nothing to worry about............. What did they say about a little bit of knowledge being a dangerous thing? Thanks in advance of any guidance to a neophyte!!?

SPLIT() UDF
SQL UDF split() The objective of this article is to help the SQL developers with an UDF that can be used within a stored procedures or Function to split a string (based on given delimiter) and extract the required portion of the string. Scripting languages like VB script and Java script have in-built split() functions but there is no such function available in SQL server. In my experience this function is really handy when you’re working on an ASP application with SQL server as backend, whereby you’ll need to pass the ASP page submitted values to the SQL stored procedure. To give a simple example, in a typical Monthly reporting ASP page – the users would select a range of months and extract the information pertaining to this date range. Classic implementation of this model is to have an ASP page to accept the input parameters and pass the values to the SQL stored procedure (SP). The SP would return a result set which is then formatted in the ASP page as results. If the date range is continuous ie. JAN07 to MAR07 then the SP can typically accept a ‘From’ and ‘To’ range variables. But I’ve encountered situations whereby the users select 3 months from the current year and 2 months from previous year (non-continuous date ranges). In such scenario the SP cannot have a date range as input parameters. Typically an ASP programmer would do is by having a single date input parameter in the SP and call the SP within a loop in the ASP page. This is an inefficient way of programming as contacting the database server within an ASP loop could cause performance overhead especially if the table being queried is an online transaction processing table. Here is how I handled the above situation. 1.Declared one string input parameter of type varchar(8000) (if you’re using SQL 2005 then it is advisable to use Varchar(Max)) 2.Pass the ASP submitted values as string, in this case the months selected by user would be supplied to the SP as a string 3.Within the Stored Procedure I’ll call the split() function to extract each month from the string and query the corresponding data The basic structure of the stored procedure is as pasted below:- CREATE PROCEDURE FETCH_SALES_DETAIL ( @MONTH VARCHAR(MAX) ) AS BEGIN DECLARE @MONTH_CNT INT,@MTH DATETIME SET @MONTH_CNT=1 WHILE DBO.SPLIT(@MONTH,',',@MONTH_CNT) <> '' BEGIN SET @MTH = CAST(DBO.SPLIT(@MONTH,',',@MONTH_CNT) AS DATETIME) --<<Application specific T-SQLs>>-- (BEGIN) SELECT [SALES_MONTH],[SALES_QTY],[PRODUCT_ID],[TRANSACTION_DATE] FROM SALES (NLOCK) WHERE [SALES_MONTH]= @MTH --<<Application specific T-SQLs>>--(END) SET @MONTH_CNT=@MONTH_CNT+1 END END Dbo.SPLIT() function takes 3 parameters 1)The main string with the values to be split 2)The delimiter 3)The Nth occurrence of the string to be returned The functionality of the UDF is as explained STEP by STEP: 1.Function Declaration CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[SPLIT] ( @nstring VARCHAR(MAX), @deliminator nvarchar(10), @index int ) RETURNS VARCHAR(MAX) Function is declared with 3 input parameters:- @nstring of type VARCHAR(MAX) will hold the main string to be split @deliminator of type NVARCHAR(10) will hold the delimiter @index of type INT will hold the index of the string to be returned 2.Variable Declaration DECLARE @position int DECLARE @ustr VARCHAR(MAX) DECLARE @pcnt int Three variables are needed within the function. @position is an integer variable that will be used to traverse along the main string. @ustr will store the string to be returned and the @pcnt integer variable to check the index of the delimiter. 3.Variable initialization SET @position = 1 SET @pcnt = 1 SELECT @ustr = '' Initialize the variables 4.Main functionality WHILE @position <= DATALENGTH(@nstring) and @pcnt <= @index BEGIN IF SUBSTRING(@nstring, @position, 1) <> @deliminator BEGIN IF @pcnt = @index BEGIN SET @ustr = @ustr + CAST(SUBSTRING(@nstring, @position, 1) AS nvarchar) END SET @position = @position + 1 END ELSE BEGIN SET @position = @position + 1 SET @pcnt = @pcnt + 1 END END 4.1The main while loop is used to traverse through the main string until the word index is less than or equal to the index passed as input parameter. 4.2Within the while loop each character within the string is verified against the delimiter and if it does not match then local word count variable is checked against the input index parameter 4.3If the values are same ie., the input variable index and the word being processed in the while loop are the same then the word is stored in the @ustr variable. If the values does not match then the @position variable is incremented. 4.4If the character matches with the delimiter then the word count variable @pcnt is incremented along with the @position variable 5.Return the value RETURN @ustr I hope this article would benefit those who are looking for a handy function to deal with Strings.

Should I Split The Procedure Or Not???
I have a procedure that is going to be called through asp pages. This procedure carries out instructions depending on whether customers wants to insert, update or delete their portfolios. Rules are as follows: 1. It should not allow duplicate portfolio name to insert. 2. If customer has reached their max limit of 20 portfolio they can't add. They may have to delete or update the existing portfolio first. 3. all the error handling is done and returned as output parameters. Now coming to the question at present I have one procedure that does all these things. Should I split up the procedure and have three procedures handling the events seperately: 1 Insert 2 Delete 3 update The reason I am concerned is 1 procedure being hit so many times by concurrent users with varying events. I am concerned about performance issue and slowing down of the page. I do not have exact numbers of users at this point. But they would be in thousands or more. Thanks for any suggestions or advice you all might have to share. Hiku
