Trying to run a simple query below
Update CustomerID
set CustomerLevelID='5'
where CustomerID='97000,57700,560046,462334,454453,522444,539743'
When I try this I get
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value
Is it possible to use comma delimited values in a where command?
I want to allow visitors to filter a list of events to show only those belonging to categories selected from a checklist.
Here is an approach I am trying:
TABLE Events(EventID int, Categories varchar(200))
EventID Catetories
--------------------------
1 ‘6,8,9’
2 ‘2,3’
PROCEDURE ListFilteredEvents
@FilterList varchar(200) -- contains ‘3,5’
AS
SELECT EventID FROM Events
WHERE (any value in Categories) IN @FilterList
Result:
EventID
----------
2
How can I select all records where any value in the Categories column
matches a value in @FilterList. In this example, record 2 would be
selected since it belongs to category 3, which is also in @FilterList.
I’ve looked at the table of numbers approach, which works when
selecting records where a column value is in the parameter list, but I
can’t see how to make this work when the column itself also contains a
comma delimited list.
Can someone suggest an approach?
Any examples would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I have a complex query where each row in the final dataset is a
product.
However each product has a number of authors associated with it.
What I
would like to do is have a query/subroutine join the authors to the
product,
as a string:
ProductID
Title
Authors
1 The Sacred and the Profane John Rieggle, George
Alexi
2 Dancing
in the Dark Dan
Brown, Peter Kay, Paul
Dwebinski
Products
Table
==============
ProductID
Title
Authors
Table
=============
AuthorID
Name
Product Authors
Table
=====================
AuthorID
ProductID
Is this at all
possible?
Thanks

Hi,
I have the following query:
SELECT *
FROM News INNER JOIN
Newsletters ON News.ID = Newsletters.fkNewsID
My problem is that fkNewsID can contain a comma delimited list of various IDs. Is there a way to properly do the join in this case?
Hello any MS SQL experts out there! please help if you can. i'm trying to run a subquery
within a query to keep myself from having to loop over the original query on display and
then run additional queries to get the further info. here's the setup. i have two tables:
persons table
column: name (varchar)
column: vehicleids (varchar)
vehicles table
column: id (int pk)
column: vehiclename (varchar)
- The persons table is a list of peoples' names and what kind of vehicle/s they own.
- The persons.vehicleids field is a comma-delimited list of one or more integers which correspond to the vehicles.id field.
- The vehicles table contains a list of vehicles like car, bicycle, motorcycle, etc, distinguished by the vehicles.id field.
The result i want returned by the query is:
NAME - VEHICLES
Joe Somebody - car,bicycle
Sheila Johnson - van,pogostick,motorcycle
John Nobody - skateboard,car
The query i'm trying to run to get this result is:
Code Snippet
SELECT pe.name,
(
SELECT ve.vehiclename
FROM vehicles ve
WHERE CAST(ve.id AS VARCHAR) IN (pe.vehicleids)
) AS vehicles
FROM persons pe
ORDER BY pe.name
It returns the persons names in the first column, but only returns vehicle names in the
second column when there's a single id in the persons.vehicleids field. if there's more
than one integer in the field, it returns an empty string.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I do have the option of table restructuring if
its necessary, but I'm not looking for a stored procedure solution or a temp table
solution. Any takers? I would be in the kharmic debt of anyone providing a workable
avenue.
Thank you,
Tyler
Have 2 tables in SQL Server 05 DB:
First one is MyList
user_id -> unique value
list -> comma-delimited list of user_ids
notes -> random varchar data
Second one is MyProfile
user_id -> unique value
name
address
email
phone
I need a stored proc to return rows from MyProfile that match the comma-delimited contents in the "list" column of MyList, based on the user_id matched in MyList. The stored proc should receive as input a @user_id for MyList then return all this data.
The format of the comma-delimited data is as such (all values are 10-digit alphanumerics):
d25ef46bp3,s46ji25tn9,p53fy76nc9
The data returned should be all the columns of MyProfile, and the columns of MyList (which will obviously be duplicated for each row returned).
Thank you!
I am trying to pass a comma delimited llist of names to a stored procedure. I am getting a syntax error and I can't seem to figure out why. When i plug the names by hand into my select statement in query analyzer it all works fine.
Just a little background so i don't have to put all the code in... the list of name is built dynamically.
Below are all the code snippets. Thanks for your help in advance.
The is the list of names and the call to the stored procedure:
Code:
employeeList = 'name1','name2',name3','name4','name5'
SQL="sp_REVIEW @ACTION='lde', @CURRENT_USER='" & currentUser & "', " &_
"@EMPLOYEE_LIST='" & employeeList & "'"
Here is the stored procedure
Code:
SELECT ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME, ww.LAST_NAME + ', ' + ww.FIRST_NAME as employeeName,
ww1.DIVISION + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER + ' - ' + ww1.COST_CENTER_DESC as department
FROM WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_PEOPLE_V ww
LEFT JOIN WHOS_WHO.dbo.HR_DEPARTMENTS_V ww1 ON ww.DEPARTMENT_ID = ww1.ORG_ID
WHERE ww.SEARCHABLE = 1 AND ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IS NOT NULL AND ww.PERSON_TYPE = 'Employee'
AND (ww.ORACLE_USER_NAME IN (@EMPLOYEE_LIST)
OR ww.DEPARTMENT_ID IN (SELECT ud.department_id
FROM USER_DEPARTMENT ud
WHERE ud.nt_id = @CURRENT_USER))
ORDER BY ww.LAST_NAME, ww.FIRST_NAME
I have a stored procedure that I want to use to update multiple records. I'm using ASP and the request form collection is returning values in a comma delimited list.
Example:
name1 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
name2 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
name3 = value1, value2, value3, etc.
Here is how I wrote my stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Sp_Update_ABR_Record
(
@abrID int,
@ddo varchar(50),
@ay varchar(50),
@strategy varchar(10),
@budgacct varchar(10),
@budgobj varchar(10),
@origamt
varchar(50),
@incrdecr varchar(50),
@review char(10),
@abrdetlsID varchar(50)
)
AS
UPDATE DIM_ABR_REQ_HDR
SET ABR_review = @review
WHERE ABR_ID = @abrID
UPDATE DIM_ABR_REQ_DETLS
SET ABR_DETLS_DDO = @ddo, ABR_DETLS_AY = @ay,
ABR_DETLS_STRATEGY = @strategy, ABR_DETLS_BUDG_ACCT = @budgacct,
ABR_DETLS_BUDG_OBJ = @budgobj, ABR_DETLS_FUND_ORIG_AMT = convert(money, @origamt), ABR_DETLS_FUND_INCR_DECR = convert(money, @incrdecr)
WHERE
ABR_DETLS_ID = @abrdetlsID
GO
The second update is where the comma delimited list needs to be handled. The first update is only updating one field once.
Is there a way to write the procedure to handle the comma delimited list? Or, is the way I have the stored procedure okay and I just need to handle the comma delimited list within the ASP code? I'm not sure which way I can accomplish this?
Thanks for any help.

I need some help with a stored procedure to insert multiple rows into a join table from a checkboxlist on a form. The database structure has 3 tables - Products, Files, and ProductFiles(join). From a asp.net formview users are able to upload files to the server. The formview has a products checkboxlist where the user selects all products a file they are uploading applies too. I parse the selected values of the checkboxlist into a comma delimited list that is then passed with other parameters to the stored proc. If only one value is selected in the checkboxlist then the spproc executed correctly. Also, if i run sql profiler i can confirm that the that asp.net is passing the correct information to the sproc:
exec proc_Add_Product_Files @FileName = N'This is just a test.doc', @FileDescription = N'test', @FileSize = 24064, @LanguageID = NULL, @DocumentCategoryID = 1, @ComplianceID = NULL, @SubmittedBy = N'Kevin McPhail', @SubmittedDate = 'Jan 18 2006 12:00:00:000AM', @ProductID = N'10,11,8'
Here is the stored proc it is based on an article posted in another newsgroup on handling lists in a stored proc. Obviously there was something in the article i did not understand correctly or the author left something out that most people probably already know (I am fairly new to stored procs)
CREATE PROCEDURE proc_Add_Product_Files_v2/*Declare variables for the stored procedure. ProductID is a varchar because it will receive a comma,delimited list of values from the webform and then insert a rowinto productfiles for each product that the file being uploaded pertains to. */@FileName varchar(150),@FileDescription varchar(150),@FileSize int,@LanguageID int,@DocumentCategoryID int,@ComplianceID int,@SubmittedBy varchar(50),@SubmittedDate datetime,@ProductID varchar(150)
ASBEGIN
DECLARE @FileID INT
SET NOCOUNT ON
/*Insert into the files table and retrieve the primary key of the new record using @@identity*/ INSERT INTO Files (FileName, FileDescription, FileSize, LanguageID, DocumentCategoryID, ComplianceID, SubmittedBy, SubmittedDate) Values (@FileName, @FileDescription, @FileSize, @LanguageID, @DocumentCategoryID, @ComplianceID, @SubmittedBy, @SubmittedDate)
Select @FileID=@@Identity
/*Uses dynamic sql to insert the comma delimited list of productids into the productfiles table.*/ DECLARE @ProductFilesInsert varchar(2000)
SET @ProductFilesInsert = 'INSERT INTO ProductFiles (FileID, ProductID) SELECT ' + CONVERT(varchar,@FileID) + ', Product1ID FROM Products WHERE Product1ID IN (' + @ProductID + ')' exec(@ProductFilesInsert) EndGO
So at the moment, I don't have a function by the name CONCATENATE. What I like to do is to list all those different values that go with a single CASE_ID to appear as a a comma separate list. You might have a better way of doing without even writing a function
So the output would look like :
CASE_ID VARIABLE
=====================
1 [ABC],[HDR],[GHHHHH]
2 [ABCSS],[CCHDR],[XXGHHVVVHHH],[KKKJU],[KLK]
SELECT
preop.Case_ID,
dbo.Concatenate( '[' + CAST(preop.value_text AS VARCHAR) + ']' ) as variable
FROM
dbo.TBL_Preop preop
WHERE
preop.Deleted_CD = 0
GROUP BY
preop.Case_ID
I have a stored procedure that is passed two values. Both are strings representations of GUID values, the first is a single value, the second is a comma delimited string of values.In the stored procedure I call a split function to separate the comma delimited values into a table and this is used in my WHERE clause to filter my select results.This is an example:
Code:
SELECT
item.uiGUID as ItemGUID,
stores.strStoreName as Store,
location.strLocationName as Location
FROM tblItems as item
INNER JOIN tblStoreLocations as location
ON item.uiLocationGUID = location.uiGUID
INNER JOIN tblStores as stores
ON location.uiStoreGUID = stores.uiGUID
WHERE CAST(item.uiGUID as varchar(36)) IN (SELECT Value FROM dbo.Split(',',@ItemGUIDList))
When I run this query in the management studio, passing a list of 5 values in the second parameter, my results include one item for each of the 5 values. However, when I pass the parameters from my ASP project, (I've verified the values I think are being passed are indeed being passed), I only get one item.I believe the error is in my split function. Both split functions return the same results in the SQL management studio, but only one returns the correct results in the the ASP project.
When I use this version of the function it returns the correct table values to the calling application, but it chokes when the item list does not have a trailing comma. I figure that to be a bug in the SQL function.
Code:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Split]
( @Delimiter varchar(5),
@List varchar(8000)
)
RETURNS @TableOfValues table
( RowID smallint IDENTITY(1,1),
[Value] varchar(50)
[code]....
I've to write a function to return a comma delimited values from a table columns
If a table has Tab1 ( Col1,Col2,Col3).
E.g. as below ( the columnName content I want to use as columns for my pivot table
CREATE FUNCTION [RPT].[GetListOfCol]
(
@vCat NVARCHAR(4000)
)
RETURNS @PList
AS
BEGIN
SELECT @PList += N', [' + [ColumnName] +']'
FROM [ETL].[TableDef]
WHERE [IsActive] = 1
AND [Category] = @vCat
RETURN;
END;
I want out put to be as below, I am getting this output from the select query independently by declaring @Plist variable and passing @vcat value, now I want it to be returned from a function when called from a select query output ,Colum1,column2,....
I'd like to ask how you would get the OUTPUT below from the TABLE below:
TABLE:
id category
1 A
2 C
3 A
4 A
5 B
6 C
7 B
OUTPUT:
category count id's
A 3 1,3,4
B 2 5,7
C 2 2,6
The code would go something like:
Select category, count(*), .... as id's
from TABLE
group by category
I just need to find that .... part.

Someone coded their database like this. It is a SQL server table with these two fields.
How do I use SSIS to parse out that single field?

542 Raymond G. Givargidze
557 Hui Juan Lu
557 Tong Yu Lu
but the user would like to see the following:
Store Number
I have a requirement for SSRS report where part of the input has the following structure:
Store NumberStore Owner
542 Jaklin Givargidze

but the user would like to see the following:
Store Number Store Owner
542 Jaklin Givargidze, Raymond G. Givargidze
557 Hui Juan Lu, Tong Yu Lu
I am sure that this can be coded, just don't know how. I believe that proper term is to "serialize" the values.
I have about 100 K records of the form below in Example 1 and I would like to turn them into the form of Example 2, basically turn the entries in field2 into a coma separated list of values sorted by field1.

Hi,
Good evening! I have a problem. I have a namelist coming from a distribution list of an active directory. When I converted it to csv file, the members reside in just one column and separated by a comma. I want the names to be separated in a row one by one. I tried it on excel and I used the transpose column but to no avail. My last resort is to import it on sql but the names on the column was cut and not complete. Do you have any idea how to do this. Your help is highly appreciated.
this is the sample file..
names
kelly.yap, lizzy.fox, yahoo, finance.dep, hope.miller, porly.john
the maximum names in a row is 566.
thanks in advance.

Suppose I have a table named Test (referred in the query below)
Category Indicators
ctgy1Y,,,,
ctgy2Y,Y,Y,N,
ctgy3,Y,,Y,
and If I would like to transform this table to
Category Indicators
ctgy1Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy3Y
ctgy3Y
I am able to do it using the logic below
CREATE TABLE dbo.Numbers (Number INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED)
WHILE COALESCE(SCOPE_IDENTITY(), 0) < 5
BEGIN
INSERT dbo.Numbers DEFAULT VALUES
END
SELECT category,
SUBSTRING( Value, Number, CHARINDEX( ',', Value + ',', Number ) - Number ) as program
FROM Test
inner
JOIN Numbers
ON SUBSTRING( ',' + Value, Number, 1 ) = ','
and CHARINDEX( ',', Value+',', Number ) - Number <> 0
where Number <= Len(Value) + 1
But I would like to Transform this table into something like the one below (where if 'Y' before 1st comma then Q1, if 'Y' Before 2nd comma then Q2 and so on
Category Indicators
ctgy1Q1
ctgy2Q1
ctgy2Q2
ctgy2Q3
ctgy3Q2
ctgy3Q4
What is the best and efficient way to obtain this? Any help will be greatly helpful.

I need to import comma delimited text files into sql tables. in one of the column, there is a comma in the string itself. e.g.
Cust_ID Name Phone Address1 Address2
Date that I have:
001,juia, anderson,4694568855,,Cedar Spring
The data does not have double quote as text qualifiers. but as you see, on the Name column, there is a comma, which is not a delimiter. can anybody give any suggestions on how i can deal with that? i would appreciate it so much.
thanks

Dear SQL,
Lets say I have a field: User_Names
and it can have more than one name
example: "Yovav,John,Shon"
How can I select all the records that has "Yovav" in them ?
I try some like this:
SELECT * FROM User_Table WHERE User_Names IN ('Yovav')
but it only works if the field User_Names only has "Yovav" in it with no extras...
is there some SQL function to tell if string is found in a field ?
Any hope 4 me ?

I am trying to build a dynamic where statement for my sql stored prcoedure
if len(@Office) > 0 select @strWhereClause = N'cvEh.chOfficeId in (select id from dbo.csfParseDeLimitedText( ' + @vchOffice + ',' + ''',''' + '))' + ' and ' + @strWhereClause

select @strWhereClause = cvEh.chOfficeId in (select id from dbo.csfParseDeLimitedText('we1', 'we2', 'we3'),',')

My problem is it does not put quotes around the comma delimited stringso I want to put 'we1' , 'we2'. These single quotes are not coming in the dynamic sql statement. How can I modify my query so that single quotes around each entry should show up.
Any help will be greatky appreciated.
