SQL Server 2008 :: View Creation Using XML Column On Linked / Distributed Server?
Sep 4, 2015A recent SharePoint upgrade has rendered several views obsolete. I am redefining them so that our upper level executive reports show valid data.(yes, I know that doing anything to sharepoint could cause MS to deny support, having said that, this is something I've inherited and need to fix, pronto) The old view was created like so:
USE [AHMC]
GO
/****** Object: View [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] Script Date: 09/04/2015 09:28:03 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] AS
SELECT
[code]....
As I said, this view is used in a report showing surgical minutes.SharePoint is now on a new server, which is linked differently (distributed?) I've used OPENQUERY to get my 'new' query to work;
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY ([PORTALWEBDB], 'SELECT
--AllLists
AL.tp_ID AS ALtpID
,AL.tp_WebID as altpwebid
,AL.tp_Title AS ALTitle
[code]....
My data (ie surgical minutes, etc) seems to be in the XML column, AUD.tp_ColumnSet . So I need to parse it out and convert it to INT to maintain consistency with the previous view. How do I do this within the context of the view definition?Here is a representation of the new and old view data copied to excel :
<datetime1>2014-08-14T04:00:00</datetime1><float1>2.000000000000000e+000</float1><float2>4.190000000000000e+002</float2><float3>1.600000000000000e+001</float3><float4>8.110000000000000e+002</float4><sql_variant1 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:sqltypes="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/sqltypes"
[Code] ....
can't format it to make it look decent. InHouseCases =2, InHouseMinutes=419, OutPatientCases =16, OutPatientMinutes=1230. This corresponds to the new data I can see in the XML column; 2.000000000000000e+000 is indeed 2 and 4.190000000000000e_002 is indeed 419.
T-SQL (SS2K8) :: How To Find All Empty Files In A Database
May 4, 2015I need to find all empty files in the database (SQL Server 2008R2 SP2) The files become empty after the archival of a partitioned tables.
I was trying this:
select f.name, *
from sysfiles f (nolock)
left join sys.filegroups fg (nolock)
on f.name = fg.name
left join sys.indexes i (nolock)
on i.data_space_id = fg.data_space_id
left join sys.all_objects o (nolock)
ON i.[object_id] = o.[object_id]
where i.name is NULL and o.name is NULL
Did not work.
My file names are the same as the filgroup names containing the file, this is why I was joining by name.
Integration Services :: SSIS - Values Are Not Getting Rounded Off
Sep 17, 2015I came across the below scenario in SSIS where the values are not getting rounded off in SSIS as expected.
I am passing the value 23007.945 and using a derived column expression to round off the value Round(number,2).
Placed a dataviewer to view the outcome after the derived column expression.Value after derived column expression seems to be 23007.94 but the same when passed in SQL select round(23007.945,2) gives us the value as 23007.95.
What could be causing this?
Transact SQL :: Transpose (Pivot) Columns To Rows?

Import CSV To Server From Command Line
Mar 26, 2015I want to import a huge .csv file in my sql server database.
There are about 10000 rows and 30 columns
My file looks like this:
Attributname1; Attributname2; Attributname3; ...
data; data; data;...
data; data; data;...
data; data; data;...
Now my idea is to do this on the command line/batch script. I have found different ways to do this job but the problem is i have to create a table in the database first. The entries in the first line of the csv file are the attribute names.
After creating the table with attributes i must write the data in the database.
Power Pivot :: Creating A Burn Down Chart Using Running Total Of Cumulative Hours
Jul 21, 2015Creating a burn down chart using a running total of cumulative hours with the following formula:
CumulativeHoursLeft:=CALCULATE (
SUM('Projects'[Budget hours]) - SUM ( 'hours'[Hours] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'hours'[Date] ),
'hours'[Date] <= MAX ('hours'[Date])
)
)
Works great except that in a Line Chart using [Date] as the Axis and CumulativeHoursLeft as the value, I get these spikes on days for which the employee reported no hours. I do know what exactly the measure is doing in this instance and I do not get this in a table, those dates simply do not appear. I have tried both Categories and Continuous for the Line Chart. I have also tried filtering where [Date] is not blank.how to get rid of the spikes?
