Update Part Of Column Into Another Column
I'm looking for a way to update a SQL column with a portion of info from another column in the same table. example of a sql command -------------------------- UPDATE table1 SET table1.columnname1 = table1.columnname2 FROM table WHERE blah blah blah Here's the thing... I only need a portion of the data found in the source column. I'm not sure how I would do this then. for example, the database has countries and states combined into one column like this 'US-DC', 'US-CA', US-FL', etc. I want to separate these into two columns, a country column and a state column.... and I dont want to go though all the results and do this line by line. How would I write the SQL command so that it puts just the country in the country column, and puts just the state in the state column, and it omits the dash all together. any ideas?

Update And Add On Values

Update Values
I made a mistake converting some time data to unix timecodes while adding some data to a database, and now I noticed some of these dates need to have 15 hours added to the timestamp. So I though about doing a Code: UPDATE ntk_news SET date=date+54000 WHERE newsid>0 AND newsid<178 after having a look at the MySQL manual for Update . Did not work, unfortunately. Anybody knows what I am doing wrong? I took 54000 since that is ~15 hours. The WHERE statement works in a SELECT clause, but then copy-n-pasted into this UPDATE clause it all breaks.

Update Query Where Values Will Come From Other Table
I'm creating an update query which the value will come from another table. I have here my current query which unfortunately makes the system hangs. Probably because of the query itself is not properly coded. update boxes b inner join messages m on b.ctnnumber = m.ctnno set b.consigneerecv = m.CName, b.consigneerecvdate = m.DateRcv, b.phrecventered = "Y", b.PhilStatus = "delivered", b.prevreleasestatus = b.releasestatus, b.releasestatus = "delivered", b.PhilStatusDate = m.smsrecvdate, b.phdelprice = "0.00", b.phdelamt = "0.00", b.recvrelation = m.Relation, b.APRecventered = m.smsRecvDate where b.consigneerecv = '' or b.consigneerecv = 'NA' or b.consigneerecv is null; I'm thinking revising it so that it will not cause the system to hang but I don't know how. Guys please help me with this one. I also have this another idea which probably will not work.

Inserting Multiple Values In One Column
I have a web form that has a drop down list where you can select more than one item. I'd like both of these values to be entered into the same column in a table. For example, the table is set out as follows TAG_TABLE tag_id user_id software_id all of the above are integers whose value is referenced in another table. eg the software_id table is as follows SOFTWARE_TABLE software_id software The dropdown list in the form is populated from the software table. What happens is that when I select an item from the drop down list say Microsoft Visio it enters the corresponding integer in the main table. But if I select Microsoft Visio and Micrsoft Project, I want both of those integers to somehow be added into the user_id column in the TAG_TABLE. I also have a web based reports form .....

Update Values On Inserting Duplicate Index
I am very new to mysql. I have a question about using the "on duplicate update" clause with insert command. my table "data" has two columns, field1 and field2, where field1 is the index and is "unique". when I run insert ignore into `data` ( `field1`,`field2`) values (1,2) (2,6) (2,9) (5,1) I got 1,2 2,6 5,1 because the third value pair, (2,9) was ignored due to duplication in field1. here is what I want to do: when inserting new record with duplicate index, I want the existing record gets updated. in the above case, I want the output look like the following after the insert command: 1,2 2,9 5,1 after searching mysql online document, I only found the "on duplicate update" clause can do something similar, however, all the examples only show setting the duplicate record to somthing unrelated to the new values.

A Query To Select A Column When A Percentage Of Values Non Zero?
I wounder whether some of the experts out there might be able to help me with a problem I'm having. I do not know whether this is possible or not... I have a large table of stock price data which is straight-forward enought. I can select prices based on a ticker and date ranges. However, what I'd like to do is to select prices only when, say 75% of them are non-zero (with the goal of eliminating new/suspended/delisted stocks). Of course I could just select where price > 0, but then I might get only a few rows where this is the case. What I would like to do is always get the full date range of prices, but only if >75% are there.

Append String Of Column Values In SELECT Statement
I'm looking for syntax to append string of column values in SELECT statement. For example, following is a SQL statement to select the property_address1, property_address2 and property_address3. The values should be returned in accordance to their respective columns.

I've no idea of MySQL, but Oracle syntax would look like the following: SELECT property.property_address1 || property.property_address2 || property.property_address3 FROM orems_property property;
Date/Time As A Default Values For A Table Column
I am new to mySQL, so this question might be simple.I want to add a default value to a column that is the current date/time. I am using the mySQL Administrator and will not allow me to use a function like CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() or NOW() as a default value. I used to do this with other databases (I always add a column to all of my tables called InsertDateTime and UpdateDateTime. It helps to track down data entry problems)
Creating Column Of Unique Values In Order To Have A Primary Key
I have a flat file that has no columns with unique values.In other words, there is no column available that I can define as the PRIMARY KEY, and thus, cannot incorporate the data into a table. So, my question is this: How do I modify the table so that I can insert a column of unique values for each record? A column of unique values would be something as simple as a letter followed by the row number of the record (e.g, T1, T2983, etc.).
Updating Column With Sumned Values For Each Record In Table
I have most of the query formulated, but am stuck on the portion where I need to specify which records to update. I want to update all the records in the table. How can I specify the request_id to be the same in both the select and update statement? Here's the query I'm working on: Code: update enhancementrequests2 set hardBenefitEffortSavings = (SELECT hardBenefitEffortSavings + hardBenefitLaborSavings + hardBenefitHardwareSoftwareSavings + hardBenefitOtherSavings AS hbTotal FROM enhancementrequests where request_id = 1), hardBenefitLaborSavings = NULL, hardBenefitHardwareSoftwareSavings = NULL, hardBenefitOtherSavings = NULL where request_id = 1 In my example I have specified that request_id = 1, but I want request_id to match each row of the table in turn. I hope that makes sense.
