Display Column
i'm a beginer to PHP and MySql and I was woundering if I could display all of the different values in a table column without show dupelicates. One examle of what im try to achieve is
ID | ARTIST_NAME | ALBUM_NAME | TRACK_NAME
now lets assume that I have registered 10 albums into my database each with 10 tracks. If I try to display the different album names, I would get one album name followed by 9 dupes. Is there a way of just showing 1?
(note in the real database not all album have 10 tracks so a script that takes away 9 would not work!)

Display Results From A Column In A Row
I am using php/MySQL 4.0 .. tried using GROUP_CONCAT, but it would not work ... perhaps not supported in MySQL 4.0? If I had a table consisting of: player l code l amount ------------------------------------- playerA l 1 l 5 playerA l 2 l 6 playerA l 3 l 4 playerB l 5 l 10 playerC l 3 l 4 playerC l 4 l 3 SELECT player, code, SUM(amount) as amt FROM table GROUP BY player How would I get the result below? playerA 1,2,3 15 playerB 5 10 playerC 3,4 7

Force Display Of Column Names For Empty Result Set?
I often use commands like this to create tab-separated text files from my tables: mysql -e "select * from mydb.mytable;" > myfile.txt This usually works great, but I'm having trouble when the query returns an empty set. In this case, I would like myfile.txt to end up with a header row with the column names, and then no additional rows. Instead, I'm getting a completely empty file. This is similar to the fact that if you run a query in mysql like "select * from mydb.mytable where 0;" you get the response "Empty set" instead of a table with a header and no rows. Anyway, this is causing me a lot of problems, because I would like to pass these text files off to another program, which is happy to work with text files with headers and no additional rows, but is not happy with completely empty files. I have tried the "--column-names" option on the command line, but it doesn't help. Is there any way to force mysql to display column names, even for an empty result set?

Can I: Export Column, Optimize & Fill New Column With Value To Original Column?
I have a database with over 40,000 rows and 28 columns (learned how to import large files by changing php.ini!). Using Excel, I am able to: (A) copy and paste original column (e.g., SIZE_TEXT) (B) ALONG with each records' UNIQUE_KEY, (C) sort SIZE_TEXT column, (D) filter for unique values, (E) fill new column with its SIZE_TEXT__KEY, and then (F) import the new SIZE_TEXT_KEY value into the database by creating a new column or pasting over the columns original value. However, I think this can be performed, with less potential for error, using phpMyAdmin, but I haven't found anything demonstrating how to perform these actions. I searched the terms optimization and normalization. I am hoping one can use phpMyAdmin to: 1) create a new table with export column of the original table (SIZE_TEXT_TABLE), 2) sort new table for duplicates and show only unique values, then 3) import the column results into each Unique Records original column (SIZE_TEXT) 4) link new column values to Foreign Key (the Parent Table's SIZE_TEXT_KEY)

Selecting From Column A Where Column B Matches Column A Twice?
Here's a table called Creatures containing Creatures and EntryIDs: Code: [Creatures] Creature EntryID ================== fish 100 cat 100 fish 200 bird 200 pig 300 bird 400 I would like to select all EntryIDs that contain both "fish" and "bird". From the above table, "200" should be returned, seeing as both fish and bird are the only rows that both use the same EntryID. How can I do this? Do I need to use Group By or Left Join or something?

Display ERD Diagrams
I am way to used to microsoft's enterprise manager and the erd diagrams that it allows a person to view. I have been looking for a program that will allow for the same functionality in mysql. In other posts I have found one that is supposed to do what I want (DBDesigner), but for some reason it always says that my login is incorrect, which is the same one that I use for mysql-admin, so I dropped that one after a number of attempts. Is there any other programs out there that provides what I want? Obviously if it is free that is good, but if there is a program that is around a $100 and provides a demo version to let me preview what I am to pay for, that is ok as well.

Display Components
I am having a little trouble with a group by query: Code: SELECT Names.name, SUM(cost) FROM Names, Costs WHERE Names.nameID = Costs.nameID GROUP BY Names.name This gives me the cost totalled by name, what i would actually like to show is every individual cost item by name, and the totalled amount for that name at the end. Obviously to just return all individual costs per name the query would be: Code: SELECT Names.name, Costs.cost FROM Names, Costs WHERE Names.nameID = Costs.nameID I can not successfully draw the required results in one query.I am using mysql 3.23.54.

Maximum Display
What is the benefit of specifying a maximum display width after a int, tinyint, bigint etc. For example if I specify a column as int(10), the column will still take 4 bytes of storage data. So what is the use of specifying (10), the Maximum Display Width.

If X = 1, Display Record
How would I display a record only if a certain column in the table has "1" in the row? Things should automatically submit at 0. This may sound complicated, and if there's an easier way that'd be great. What I'm trying to do it have people submit something, but it needs to be approved by me, the webmaster. I don't want records to be automatically displayed upon submission. If there's an easier way that manually entering "1" into a column in the table, that'd be great.

However when running on the host server, my script is generating and displaying only the first 25 records on my website.

Display Amount/No Duplicates
How do you select only the first #(10, 20 ,30... just some set number) rows in a table. Then if you want to continue, how can you select the next ten. I already know how to set them to display in desc order... but I don't know if adding this code will change it. In case you want to know, I am trying to make a news table and have it display on my web page, but I only want 10 headlines to display at a time, then click a link and the next ten will display. The other question is: How do you test to see if someone has already entered the data you are about to enter. An example would be, if someone entered the data(aa,bb,cc,dd) then tried to enter that exact same data again, it would not allow it.

Display Root Level
I need to write a pl/sql procedure which takes in the parent data of a hierarchial tree as input parameter and displays the root of the hierarchial tree. For eg. 'A' is the parent and the second level is 'A-1', 'A-2' and 'A-3'. 'A-1' has got another child, 'A-1-1' and 'A-1-2'. 'A-2' has got another child, 'A-2-1'. And 'A-3' has got no child. So, by giving the input parameter as A, the output I should get is 'A-1-1', 'A-1-2', 'A-2' and 'A-3'. A / | A-1 A-2 A-3 / A-1-1,A-1-2 A-2-1

MySQL To Display Another Language
This may or may be a stupid question. I tried googling it but my question is too vague to find a answer. I have a mysql database I have been populating with content for about 2 years. Right now my MySQL server is using English as its character set and everything stored inside is english. Now if I wanted my site to helpful Spanish speaking users, is there anyway I can have MySQL trasnalate the database into Spanish? So it'll be stored in English but when you retreive any data, it comes out spanish? Is this possible? If MySQL can not do this, does anyone have any suggestions on how I go about this? Do I find a language translater etc? I definetly dont want to be inputting English / Spanish for everything I enter into the database...that will be too time consuming and will involve me needing a spanish translator.

Formating A Display Of Numbers
Hi, I'm yellow in MySQL this is just the beginnig of my journey. And I've encountered a seriuse problem, or maybe a question for which a cannot find an answer :( and that makes me sad, really sad. So my problem is this: I want to display a number (result of POW(x,y) operation) with specified number od decimals. There is a function to do so (FORMAT(x,d)) but it requieres to specify "d" before sending query to server. But in my case I dont know it, and I wand "d" to be a result of another operation. But when I do so, error occures :( Is is possible to do my way, or is it just imposible because all rows must be formated in the same way?

Shuffle And Display Top X Rows
Using MySQL 4.1.10 with Coldfusion MX 6.1 on top. A table of data gets regular inserts of hundreds of rows at a time in the same category. A categoryID field (foreign key) is assigned to each row. So the table consists of sequential blocks of data in each category--200 to 1,000 rows of category1 then 200 to 1,000 rows of category2, then some more category 1, and then some category3, etc. I want to extract a small (and most recent) subset of the data using a select query in a way that shuffles and returns the top rows for each category like this: Row1 Category1 Row1 Category2 Row1 Category3 Row2 Category1 Row2 Category2 Row2 Category3 Row3 Category1 Row3 Category2 Row3 Category3 Row4 Category1 This example returns 10 rows. I'd like that quantity to be dynamic so I can send the query a variable from CF. The quantity of categories is known (although does grow infrequently) so I can plug that in if necessary but I'm trying to get that quantity on the fly. That, of course, takes a simple count(*) function of the category table. I just can't figure out how to incorporate that with the rest of what is needed. Am I the only one working this weekend? I think I'm close but I have a maze of nested loops and other CF goofiness and I'm still not there. Hoping to trash all that and find a purer database solution, if possible.
