CASE Statement In Update Command


I'm trying to update one table (tbl_usage) based on information from another table (tbl_subscriptions) joined by the userID. The usage table tracks the number of times a user hits a page, and decrements the count each time. When the user has a zero count, they are redirected to a warning page.

Each week the count is reset depending on what type of license they have (licenseType) and how many of those licenses they've bought (numLicenses). A group license (G) gives them 100 hits, and an individual license (I) gives them 5 hits.

I'm trying to use a case statement to perform this count reset operation, but I can't seem to get it to work. The following case statement works just fine: Code:

Simple Case Statement
I am trying to execute a statement that works fine in ms sql but will
not work in mysql. There are three tables. user (user_sid,
user_name, user_email), file (file_sid, file_name, file_desc),
file_access (file_sid, user_sid).

Here is what I want:
Given a particular file_sid return all users with an extra column
(1,0) inticated whether or not there was a match in the file_access
table for given file_sid. here is what I attempted that DOES work in
mssql.

select case when not (select file_access.user_sid from file_access
where file_access.file_sid=1 and file_access.user_sid=user.user_sid)
is null then 1 else 0 end as has_access, user.* from user

CASE Statement And NULL
I'm having trouble seeing what's wrong with the following case statement:

CASE
WHEN @Status='Active' THEN '1'
WHEN @Status='Deleted' THEN '-1'
ELSE '0'
END

@status = 'Active' is true and I've put in print statements to verify this, however the Status is always being set to 0. For some reason the case statement isn't recognizing the Status correctly so it thinks that @status is null

Case Statement: Where Value In Range
I've got a table with around 40000 records. There's a column called v_pop with a range of 2 - 1000. I'd like to color code some HTML but use the query to do that work. So check out the code below. It runs just fine, with no errors, BUT, it only returns white and pink as the class, even though I know for a fact that there are records with higher values. What am I doing wrong here?

I'm running mySQL 4.1.17

PHP

SELECT v_player,
CASE
    WHEN v_pop < 49 THEN 'white'
    WHEN v_pop > 50 < 99 THEN 'pink'
    WHEN v_pop > 100 < 199 THEN 'salmon'
    WHEN v_pop > 200 < 299 THEN 'yellow'
    WHEN v_pop > 300 < 299 THEN 'orange'
    WHEN v_pop > 400 < 399 THEN 'red'
    WHEN v_pop > 500 < 499 THEN 'brick'
END AS class

Case Statement And Multiple Conditions
I have a case statement where I have multiple conditions that are translating into one variable that I am using to group my results by. My problem is that I have data that meets more than one of the conditions and I need an accurate count if the data crosses multiple categories.

Here is an example of what I have:
case
when week(smbt.date_submitted) >=35 then 'New'
when sc.Status_Code = 80 and rc.Resolution not in (10,30) then 'Resolved'
when sc.Status_Code = 90 and rc.Resolution not in (10,30) then 'Closed'
when rc.Resolution in (10,30) and sc.Status_Code not in (80,90) then 'Open'
else 'All Other' end as status

The data that I am pulling can be New and Closed, or New & Resolved or New and Open, or New and Other. Is there anyway to formulate this statement to account for that combination, but still translate into the same "status" variable while keeping each cateogry (New, Resolved, Closed, Open, Other).

Problem W/ LIMIT In CASE Statement
I'm having a problem w/ the LIMIT clause when I'm using this CASE statement.

This is working like a dream:
SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY CASE table_id WHEN 54 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END, table_id LIMIT 50

Only problem is
I would like to do a limit start, stop statement at the end rather than a

limit stop statement.

How would you do this:

SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY CASE table_id WHEN 54 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END, table_id LIMIT 50, 50

Once I add the second part of the limit, I lose the idea of displaying table_id=54 first.


Unfortunately, UNIONS are out of the question because my Mysql version is too old.

If Case Select Statement Problem!!!
I have the following tables:

employee (empid,firstname,departmentid, applied_system)
department(depid,depname)
employeeweek(empid,weekshiftid)
weekshifts(weekshiftid, sunday_shiftid,monday_shiftid,tuesday_shiftid,wednesday_shiftid,thursday_shift id,friday_shiftid,saturday_shiftid)
dayshift(dayshiftid, from1,to1)

Each of the days in the weekshift for example sunday_shiftid is a foreign key for dayshiftid in table dayshift. weekshiftid in table employeeweek is a foreign key from table weekshifts. empid in the same table is a foreign key from weekshifts. departmentid in employee table is a fk from table department!

I am willing to query the database to return me the value of the scheduled shift of the employee (from1, to1 fields) in a certain date interval (that is between date1 and date2) and if the empoyee applied system is 1 . First I have to see if the dayname of the date is sunday for example then return the shift that corresponds for that employee in that day... I can't just do it... I Tried mysql documentation but didn't know how i can use the if and case statement properly

SQL Statement - Changing Case Of A Letter Automatically
I am running MySQL on Windows and I have a simple database setup with a list of items (contained in the same column), to keep it simple - let's say it is a list of colors.

red
white
blue

I want to be able to run a sql statement to change only the first letter in each word to uppercase so it will read:

Red
White
Blue

I think there is a command (but I am not familiar with it) that is suppose to change the entire case of the database table columns
for example with :

UPDATE Products SET ProductName = UPPER(ProductName)
* A WHERE clause could also be used if only certain rows needed to be changed.

But I only want to change the first letter as mentioned - does anyone know how to go about this ?

Using &gt;= In Select Statement From Windows Command Line?
I've learned from a post by Guelphdad that I can output the results of a SELECT query into a text file (keeping the column headings) using the following (on Windows XP using MySQL).

echo select sum(sales) from sales where year(ship_date) = '2008' | mysql -uuser -ppassword mydatabase > outputfile.txt

That works just fine. But I run into trouble with:

echo select sum(sales) from sales where ship_date >= '2008-01-01' and ship_date <= '2008-05-31' | mysql -uuser -ppassword mydatabase > outputfile.txt

An output file is created, but it is zero kB and does not contain any information (as one would expect from 0 kb).

I assume that the problem is with my usage of > in ">=" (and possibly also the < of the "<="). I've googled for help escaping > on the Windows command line, but I haven't found anything to solve my problem.

I've tried

1. echo select sum(sales) from sales where ship_date ">"= ....
(One suggested method for escaping the ">" symbol is to put it in quotes.)
2. echo "select .... " | ...
3. echo ("select ..... " ) | .....
All three atmysqlts gave me SQL errors.

4. echo select sum(sales) from sales where "ship_date >= '2008-01-01'" .... doesn't give me a SQL error, but it gives me the 0 kB file.

I know that escaping ">" is really a "Windows" issue, not a SQL issue, but here it concerns a specific use of Windows, namely to put the results of a MySQL query into a text file. So I hoped someone here had already figured out how to do so.

I realize that I can avoid the issue with "where ship_date between start_date and end_date". But I am hoping that one doesn't have to give up on using ">=" altogether, as that response would suggest.

So is there a way to safely use ">" and "<" in queries executed from the command line?

I have an ASP.Net page where the user can edit records from the database, via a GridView. I have managed to connect to the database table (somehow!) using a SQLDatasource control, which works perfectly, but when you go to update a record, you type the changes, click 'Update' and they havn't made it across. The SQL I use is -

UPDATE tblRecord
SET Announcement=@Announcement, Expiry=@Expiry, Page=@Page
WHERE tblRecordID = @tblRecordID
When run in a web browser, the code doesn't return an error, just returns back to the page with un-edited records.

Command To Update Prices
I have one table with the name dummy. In that table there is two columns I want to use, test1 which contains product ID's and test4 which contains prices.

Then I have another table with the name products. In that table there amonh other columns two columns, one column with the name products_id with the products ids and another with the name products_prices which is the column I need to update with the prices from the test4 column in the dummy database.

So I want to select the prices and products ids from the dummy table and update the prices in the products table.

The products ids are the same in both tables and so is the number of lines. The only thing that differs is the prices, in the column test4 in the table dummy the real prices are and in the products table in the products_prices colum the wrong prices are that I want to update.

The reason for wanting to to that is that all prices in the table my webshop uses has changed to zero... And that is not good, I can't give away all products.
