Total Like Records Query


Ime probably missing the boat here so please be patient. I am trying to create a query to display the total number of records with the same parent name.
Eg
Total records for author Eddings = 10

So in effect i want to count all the entries and display only the numeric figure of books for that author. I think its supposed to look something like:

Select
sum(Eddings) $total
From books

LIMIT :: Total Number Of Records?
If I have a sql statement like this:

Code:

SELECT id FROM `asset` WHERE field = 'value' LIMIT 20 , 40

Is it possible to know how many results there would've been if I hadn't used the LIMIT? Or will I need to do the above query and just count the results first, then apply the LIMIT and run the query again to get my limited set of results?

Query Pages Printed By Percentage Of Total?
I'm very new to MySQL and have a query I'm trying to achieve, if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. I have a table created to store print job logs from a print server:

Table = printLogs

logNum mediumint(8)
logDateTime datetime
docNum tinyint(3)
docName varchar(200)
owner varchar(25)
printerName varchar(25)
printerPort varchar(50)
sizeInBytes varchar(50)
pagesPrinted smallint(10)

What I'm trying to do is find a query that, based on a 'printerName', will display 'owner' and percentage derived from the total number of pages printed to that 'printerName' for a given date range.

Something like this:

+--------+--------------------------+
| owner | Percentage of total jobs |
+--------+--------------------------+
| Mary | 50% |
| John | 30% |
| Kim | 10% |
| Sue | 10% |
+--------+--------------------------+

Each row of the table is a different print job and can be one of about 20 different owners who have printed any number of pages to any of 10 printers. The main reason for the query is to be to determine which group/owner uses each printer the most.

How To Get The Total Number Of Rows With A Query "limit" ?
I would like to paginate the results of a query on several pages. So I
use a query with a limit X offset Y to display X results on a page.
But for the first page, I need to run the same query with a count(*)
to know how many pages I will get (number total of rows/ X).
The problem is my query is very slow (maybe 5s) because there is much
worch to do, and on the first page, I need to run this query twice
(not exactly, but ...) so the page is very very slow to load.
My question is : is there a function to get the total number of rows
even on a query with "limit" ? Or what could I do else ?

Trying To Get Total Count Plus Count From WHERE Clause In One Query
I am fairly familiar with mysql, have been using it with php for about a year now for my development work. One query I am stuck on is the following. I am doing reporting, and need to find the count from a WHERE clause compared to the total count for that group. For the sake of an example, let's say I have a prize table that contains a complete list of prizes. There is a column to list if the prize has been won or not (prizeUsed - Y or N) and another that has the prize name (prizeName - string). I want the final result to list something like:

Query Cannot Retrieves All The Records
I've got this problem, this query is used to create a combo wich display all months where at least a news is been submited (a kind of hostory menĂ¹), the fact is that it can display max the months wich correspond to the 107 record submited.

The query:

select date_format(data,"%b/%Y")as textMonth, month(data)as month,dayofmonth(data)as day,year(data)as year from archivio where category = "Rassegna Stampa" group by month

Just to be shure I've also tried the query above on mysql browser, and the result is the same. Can you tell me if there's a kind of limit?

Query And Non Existent Records
I have a mysql table texts which keeps textlines in different languages.

columns: textId, languageCode, textline

The application adds records for specific languages as:

textId 1
languageCode: EN
textline: "Username"

another record could be:
textId 1
languageCode: DE
textline "Anwendername"

Now at a certain pojnt in the app I have to check whether for a specific textId there are textline filled in for specific languageCode. For example: Is there a textline for records with textIds 120, 124 and 134. And are these records present for EN and FR (French). I can query as:

Select count(*) from texts where textline != '' and textId in (120,124,134);

But what when the records are there in ENglish and German but not in French?

Any ideas how to solve this?

Deleting Records Upon Query... (!?!)
Sorry for the confusing thread title. Here's what I am trying to do...

Read the last six added records for a particular criteria, and delete the rest. Now consider I have around 1000 unique "criteria" and this query is executed a few times a day for each unique... should I delete it on each read or put it in a cron job and schedule it for every night.

Here's a sample MySQL syntax for my selectquery:


SELECT * FROM table1
WHERE field1 = sometext
ORDER BY some_time_field ASC
LIMIT 0,6
So the questions, again, are:Can I join this SELECT query with a DELETE, and delete all field1s with "sometext" which were not selected by the query?If I can't, how would I do it with a seperate DELETE query? i.e. Leave the last six records for field1 = sometext and delete the rest?Do I really need to order by some_time_field? Or does MySQL have an internal schema to sort records by their "internal" creation date?

Update A Set Of Records In One Single Query
My records contain a position, from 1 to n. This position is not the primary key.
In normal conditions, the position of this records should be as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 . etc...

One of my utitities is meant to check the consistency of the table -
one of the things it has to do is scan the table as follows:

SELECT position FROM employe_records WHERE employe_id = ? ORDER BY position

From the result of this query I verify each entry (JDBC) one by one, looking for inconsistancies. In a for() loop I look at the value of position and check that they start from 1 and are incremented by one for each record.

At the first inconsistency I come accross I want to run a query to update the records so it is consistant again - it is something like this:

UPDATE employe_records SET position = updatedValue FROM
employe_records WHERE employe_id = ? ORDER BY position

This is not valid query of course - my question is what should my query look like?! How can I make 'updatedValue' incremented by one automatically so each of the records are updated from 1 to n.

Flag Records Not To Be Reused After Query
I'm a MySQL novice, and I don't even know if there is a way to do this.

I have a simple table containing just 2 fields and about 15,000 entries...one contains an ID (which is just an incremental number) and the other a phrase.

I will be doing queries selecting 50 random entries from the table. Somehow, once those 50 are selected and returned, I would like to flag them so that they cannot be selected again UNTIL I exhaust the entire list. So, I'd like to get 50 random at a time, until all 15,000 are gone, and then start over.

If that isn't possible, I suppose I can just select the first 50 every time and delete the first 50 when I am done.

Administrator Records Different In Query Browser
I'm using Innodb on windows server 2003. I noticed today that some of my tables are reported by MySql Administrator to have a far greater number of rows than what is return in a query for all rows.

For example, one table shows 51,600 rows in Administrator but when I do a SELECT * on the same table from Query Browser I get a mere 5,293 (this is the correct or "real" number of rows)
So, what's up? Why is administrator showing so many more rows?

I've also noticed that each time I press the refresh button in Administrator the number of rows changes. one time it might be 50k+ then 30k then 43k, etc, etc.

being a newb I'm a bit freaked out by all of this. I've heard that innodb can do some funny things, but this seems REALLY strange. I'm sure it's nothing, I just need to hear it from an experienced user

815,000+ Records, DB Table Query Too Slow
I have a database table with about 815,000 records in it, each record containing the source of individual webpages (with all the tags and multiple spacing stripped out leaving just the words). At first my match boolean queries were fine but once I got to around 100,000+ records it became too slow to use for a web-based search tool. I was able to separate the data into 10 tables and then use AJAX to run the match query on all 10 tables at the same time and that has increased performance.

My question is, is it possible for me to increase the performance for the 1 table some how instead of resorting to separating the data into multiple tables? Is MySQL the right DB for this kind of setup, would MSSQL or PostgreSQL perform better for larger sets of data? I'm not sure how MySQL 5 clustering works,

Insert Table Records Without Typing Query?
I'm a MySQL newbie but no stranger to Microsoft SQL Server. I'm primarily used to using Microsoft SQL Server via SQL Enterprise Studio, so I'm liking the MySQL Administrator GUI as it has a familiar feel to it.

One question (so far): in SQL Enterprise Studio, I could open a database table and insert a record simply by typing in the GUI grid (or by pasting a record from my clipboard). In MySQL Administrator, I don't see a way to do that. Is it not even possible? If not, I'll stop looking - but if there is a way to do so, I'd love to know.

For example, I'd like to be able to copy a record from an Access database or even an Excel file, and paste it into a MySQL table - not have to write an insert query and execute it.
