hi.
can somebody explain to me why the below
update fails to update one row and updates
the entire table?
Code:
UPDATE addlist
SET add_s = 1
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT a.add_s, a.email_address, e.public_name
FROM add a, edit e
WHERE a.email_address = e.email_address
and a.add_email = 'mags23@rice.edu' and a.add_s = 0 and e.public_name = 'professor');
and, what is the solution? thank you.
hi.I am having probelms with an update statement. every timei run it, "every" row updates, not just the one(s) intended.so, here is what i have. i have tried this with both AND and ORand neither seem to work.i dont know why this is elluding me, but i'd appreciate help with thesolution.thanks.UPDATE addSET add_s = 1WHERE add.add_status = 0 and add.add_email = 'mags23@rice.edu'or add_s in(SELECT a.add_sFROM add a, edit eWHERE a.email_address = e.email_addressand e.public_name = 'professor')

I am trying to write an update query to update rows in one table.
Structure of Table1:
SocialSecurityNumber Varchar(9) -- Primary Key
Name Varchar(30)
Structure of Table2 :
SocialSecurityNumber Varchar(9)
Name Varchar(30)
Table 1 contains:
Row1: "123456789" Sally
Row2: "999999999" Bill
Row3: "333333333" Alex
Table 2 contains:
Row1: "123456789" <NULL>
Row2: "123456789" <NULL>
Basically I want to update the name column in Table 2 (based on the SocialSecurityNumber column) so that after
the update Table 2 will contain:
Row1: "123456789" Sally
Row2: "123456789" Sally
------------------------------------------------------------
First I tried:
UPDATE Table2
INNER JOIN Table1 ON Table2.SocialSecurityNumber = Table1.SocialSecurityNumber
SET Table2.Name = Table1.Name
WHERE Table2.SocialSecurityNumber = Table1.SocialSecurityNumber
This works in Access but not it SQL Server 7.0.
------------------------------------------------------------
Then I tried:
UPDATE Table2
INNER JOIN Table1 ON Table2.SocialSecurityNumber = Table1.SocialSecurityNumber
SET Table2.Name = Table1.Name
Again this works in Access but not it SQL Server 7.0.
------------------------------------------------------------
Finally I tried:
UPDATE Table2, Table1
SET Table2.Name = Table1.Name
WHERE Table2.SocialSecurityNumber = Table1.SocialSecurityNumber
This also did not work.
------------------------------------------------------------
Is there any way to write this update statement without cursors?
Thanks.
I have the following update statement, which when executed, updates zero rows. However, if I replace the first two lines with a SELECT * , I will get records. Can somebody tell me why?

I've got the following update statement:
UPDATE ISSUE_ACTIONS
SET BAE_FLAG = 2
WHERE IA_ISSUE_NO = 399
AND IA_SEQUENCE = 20
The fields BAE_FLAG, IA_ISSUE_NO, and IA_SEQUENCE are all of the type int.
When I run this code inside of my windows app (C#),
cmd3.CommandText = "UPDATE ISSUE_ACTIONS " +
"SET BAE_FLAG = 2 " +
"WHERE IA_ISSUE_NO = 437 " +
"AND IA_SEQUENCE = 13";
try
{
cmd3.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
throw (e);
}
I get a timeout error:
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
The statement has been terminated.
But when I run the SAME statement from Query Analyzer, it executes without a problem.
Has anyone run into this issue before? How do I get around this?
The CommandTimeout property of cmd3 is set to the default because this is not a complex query and should not take more than .5 seconds to execute.

I have a situation where I want to update a column if and only if it is null.
UPDATE Employee
SET VEmployeeID = CASE WHEN E.VEmployeeID IS NULL
THEN ves.VEmployeeID
END
FROM Employee E
INNER JOIN VEmployeeStaging VES
ON E.EID= VES.EID
But what happens is when I run the procedure every other time I run it, it changes everything to null. The other times it puts the VEmployeeID in.
So what is happening is the times when it is not null (where it is not supposed to do anything) it puts a null in. The next time it works.
here is my code:
Dim cn As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("LocalSqlServer").ToString())
cn.Open()
Dim adapter1 As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter()
adapter1.SelectCommand = New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("update aspnet_Membership_BasicAccess.Products
set id = '" & textid.Text & "', name = '" & textname.Text & "', price = '" & textprice.Text & "', description = '" &
textdescription.Text & "', count = '" & textcount.Text & "', pictureadd = '" & textpictureadd.Text & "', artist = '" &textartist.Text & "', catergory = '" & textcategory.text & "' where id = " & Request.Item("id") & ";", cn)
cn.Close()
Response.Redirect("database.aspx")
it posts and the page loads but the data is still the same in my datagrid. what could be wrong with this simple statement... i've tried testing the statement above with constant values of the correct type but i don't think that matters because the SqlCommand() accepts a string only anyways.. doesn't it?
Hi,
I have a complex join filtering on a replicated sql server database which was working fine in previous versions of sql compact. The query is something like the following:
SELECT <published columns> FROM <filtered table> INNER JOIN <child table> ON <child table>.ID = <filtered table>.ID and <child table>.date > getdate()-30
After I upgraded to compact databse 3.5, for some weird reason whichever tables have both these Join filter and article filter together behaving improperly. If I insert any row in any of these table, the row is replicated properly to the server, but it does not send the new row to any other users. Again this thing works fine in older version. I have switched back tyo the old version of sql ce and again it's started working.
I need some help on how to structure a sql statement. I am creating a membership directory and I need the stored procedure to output the Last Name, First Name (and if married) Spouse First Name. Like this Flinstone, Fred & Wilma All members are in one directory linked by two fields. [Family ID] all the family members have the same family id and then there is a Family position id that shows if they are the Husband, Wife or Kids. I have no problem with this part select (LastName + ',' + FirstName) as Name, [Phone 1] as Phone, [Unit Name] as WD, [Street 1] as Street, SUBSTRING(City,1,3) as City, SUBSTRING(Postal,1,5) as Zipfrom Membership Where [HH Order]=1 Order By LastName ASC Could someone help me on how to display the " & Spouse FirstName " as part of the name field only if there is a spouse [HH Order]=2 for the current [Family ID]????

I have this stored procedure that returns a rowid, distance. It has a latitude, longitude, and range as inputs, it takes the latitude and longitude and computes a distance with every lat/long in a table PL_CustomerGeocode. Once that distance is computed it compares that distance with the range, and then returns the rowid, distance if the distance is <= range. I have the SELECT statement down, but now i just need to enter this information into a seperate table PL_Distance with (rowid, distance) as columns. The sql statement is as follows, and i cant figure out where the rowid part is an the distance part is: DECLARE @DegreesToRadians float SET @DegreesToRadians = Pi()/180 SELECT rowid, Cast(distance As numeric(9,3)) AS distance FROM (SELECT rowid, CASE WHEN @srcLat = geocodeLat And @srcLong = geocodeLong THEN 0.0 WHEN ABS(Arc) > 1 THEN 0.0 ELSE 3963.1 * 2 * asin(Power(Arc, 0.5)) END AS distance FROM (SELECT Power(sin(DLat/2),2) + cos(@srcLat*@DegreesToRadians)*cos(geocodeLat*@DegreesToRadians)*Power(sin(DLong/2),2) AS Arc, rowid,geocodeLat,geocodeLong FROM (SELECT @srcLong*@DegreesToRadians-geocodeLong*@DegreesToRadians AS DLong, @srcLat*@DegreesToRadians-geocodeLat*@DegreesToRadians AS DLat, rowid, geocodeLat, geocodeLong FROM dbo.PL_CustomerGeoCode) AS x) AS y) AS z WHERE distance <= @range
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi All,
My sql is a little rusty, i ve been trying to do few things but still no luck. I m trying to query some data in one column based on certain . Here is my puzzle:
I have 7 tables: categories, characteristics, configs, rm_cat, rm_chars, rm_conf and rooms.
And here are the details on these tables:
- categories: {cat_id, cat_name}
- characteristics: {char_id, char}
- configs: {conf_id, conf}
- rm_cat: {room_id, cat_id}
- rm_chars: { room_id, char_id}
- rm_conf: {room_id, conf_id}
- room: {room_id. room_name}
I m trying to select a "room_name" based on a certain cat_id, char_id and conf_id and i don't know how to do this.
Sincerely,
I have what is turning out to be a very complex T-SQL query to build.
I'm porting an App from Access to SQL Server... one of the Access queries used a function made in VBA to return a value.
For the life of me, I can't figure out how to make this work using only SQL Statements.
I'm not even sure how to even ask this. So here I go.. I've really simplified the SQL statement to help out with this. There are initially two tables.
Container and TraceRecord
Container is a table of Cargo Containers (the truck trailers you see on the highways)
TraceRecord is a table of location records as the containers move from city to city on the railroad.
The Containers move on fixed routes (ie.. Long Beach to Chicago, Long Beach to New York, etc...).. in the Container table there is a field called Route which records which Route the container is moving on and is related to a table of routes which I'll get to later.
[This is the old Access query.. notice the IIF statement and the function call to "IsOnTime"]
SELECT c.ContainerID, c.IngateDate, t.Location, t.Status, t.EventDate, t.EventTime
IIf(IsNull(c.IngateDate) Or IsNull(t.Location),"No Ingate Rail Record Captured",IsOnTime(t.Location,t.Status,t.Rail,c.Ro ute,c.IngateDate,t.EventDate, t.EventTime)) AS RailSch,
t.Rail
FROM c Container LEFT JOIN t TraceRecord ON c.ContainerID = t.UnitNumber
For each route there is a scheduled travel plan.
Example.. when a container is taken to the BNSF railroad in Long Beach that is called an "Ingate" and is considered Day 0 (zero). As the container moves on the railroad from Long Beach to Chicago, it will pass through other cities, and the TraceRecord table will record where the container is and what time and day.
What I need to do is determine, based on the latest TraceRecord record, by how many hours is the Container "on time".
There is a routing table which lists the predefined travel path for each route.. listing the number of days and hours a container should be a certain place since the day the container was taken into the railroad at the origin "Ingate".
What the IsOnTime function did was take the arguments and do some math with the routing tables and find out how many hours a unit is or is not on time.
Here's a copy of the function from Access 97 using DAO. I don't know if any of this is going to make sense to anyone.. but I'm stuck and don't know what else to do.
Function IsOnTime(strLocation As String, strStatus As String, strRail As String, intRoute As Integer, _
dateIngateDate As Date, dateCurrentDate As Date, dateCurrentTime As Date) As Variant
On Error GoTo errorh:
Dim rs As Recordset 'Rail Schedule Recordset
Dim db As Database 'Current Database
Dim sqlFind As String 'Search String to find city transit time
Dim dateScheduleDateTime As Date
Dim dateDifference As Integer 'Hours difference between trace and schedule
Dim varvar As Variant
If dateIngateDate = Null Then
IsOnTime = -9999
Else
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tTransitTimeTable", dbOpenSnapshot)
sqlFind = "([RouteID] = " & intRoute & " AND [City] = '" & strLocation & "' AND [StatusCode] = '" _

If rs.NoMatch = False Then
If (rs!daymarker = "" Or IsNull(rs!daymarker)) And (IsNull(rs!daymarker) Or rs!cutoff = "") Then
IsOnTime = "Finished"

Exit Function
End If
dateScheduleDateTime = DateAdd("d", rs!daymarker, (dateIngateDate + rs!cutoff))
dateDifference = DateDiff("h", dateScheduleDateTime, (dateCurrentDate + dateCurrentTime))
If dateDifference <> 0 Then
IsOnTime = -dateDifference
End If
If dateDifference = 0 Then
IsOnTime = 1
End If
Else
IsOnTime = -9999
End If

There are 3 tables, VendorLists, Vendors, and Referrals.
VendorLists is a linking table. It has VendorListID, VendorID, and ListID fields.
Vendors is linked to VendorLists through the VendorID field (one to many)
Referrals is linked to VendorLists through VendorListID (one to many)
I'm given a value for ListID and have to pull records from both the Vendors and Referrals table (a referral is a description of a vendor, one to many).
I am able to do this with the following SQL select statement:
SELECT Referrals.Description, Vendors.Company
FROM Referrals CROSS JOIN Vendors
WHERE Referrals.VendorListID IN
(SELECT VendorListID FROM VendorLists WHERE (ListID = lid))
AND
(Vendors.VendorID IN (SELECT VendorID FROM VendorLists WHERE ListID = lid))
ORDER BY Vendors.VendorID
This pulls all the appropriate records and values that i need and orders them by the identifier for the vendor. However, I want to randomly order the vendors but still group them together by company, so, if the VendorID is 1 for "joe's crab shack" and 2 for "billy's ice cream shop", the above will always list joe's crab shack first and all it's referrals. i want to be able to randomly order the vendors, but still keep the referrals of those vendors grouped together so that when i iterate over them, they're grouped.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this? I'm stumped!!
Hello, currently I have a query like this:
PHP Code:
SELECT *
FROM relations INNER JOIN
paths ON relations.path = paths.path_id
WHERE
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '162%') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '161%') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161;162%') OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162;161%')
ORDER BY relations.node1
Don't pay attention to the 161 and 162 things, is just test data, now my problem is that I want to transform that into a DELETE statement, but I can't find the right way to do it, so far I managed to do something like:
PHP Code:
DELETE relations
FROM relations INNER JOIN
paths ON relations.path = paths.path_id
WHERE
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links = '162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '162%') AND (relations.node1 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162') AND (relations.node2 = 161) OR
(paths.links LIKE '161%') AND (relations.node1 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161') AND (relations.node2 = 162) OR
(paths.links LIKE '%161;162%') OR
(paths.links LIKE '%162;161%')
But that would delete only from the relations table and not from the paths table. I need to delete from both tables.
Can anyone help me please? Its kinda urgent.
Thansk!

I may not be seeing the forest through the trees here but here goes. I've got a table of computer configurations with columns for cpu, ram, m/b, hdd, etc. The values in those columns are related to the id field in another table named parts.

Well, I think it's complex anyway -- you might not :)TableDef:CREATE TABLE CustTransactions (TransactionKey int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,CustomerID int,AmountSpent float,CustSelected bit default 0);TransactionKey is the primary key, CustomerID and AmountSpent are bothindexed (non unique).What I would like to do is, for all of the records in descending orderof "AmountSpent" where "CustSelected = TRUE", set CustSelected to FALSEsuch that the sum of all the AmountSpent records with CustSelected =TRUE is no greater than a specified amount (say $50,000).What I'm doing at the moment is a "SELECT * FROM CustTransactions WHERECustSelected = TRUE ORDER BY AmountSpent;", programatically loopingthrough all the records until AmountSpent 50000, then continuine toloop through the remainder of the records setting CustSelected = FALSE.This does exactly what I want but is slow and inefficient. I am sure itcould be done in a single SQL statement with subqueries, but I lack theknowledge and experience to figure out how.The closest I can get is:-UPDATE CustTransactions SET CustSelected = FALSEWHERE (CustSelected = TRUE)AND TransactionKey NOT IN(SELECT TOP 50000 TransactionKey FROM CustTransactions WHERE(((CustTransactions.CustSelected)=TRUE))ORDER BY AmountSpect DESC, TransactionKey ASC);However, this mereley ensures only the top 50,000 customers by amountspent remain "selected", not the top "X" customers whose total spendis $50,000. I really need to replace the "SELECT TOP 50000" with someform of "SELECT TOP (X rows until sum(AmountSpent) =50000)".Is it even possible to achieve what I'm trying to do?Thanks in advance for any assistance offered!--SlowerThanYou

i am appraiser the help

Hi,
Code Snippet
This is difficult to explain in words, but the following code outlines what I am trying to do:
with myTableWithRowNum as
(
select 'row' = row_number() over (order by insertdate desc), myValue
from
(
select table1Id As myValue from myTable1
union
select table2Id As myValue from myTable2
)
)
select * from myTableWithRowNum
Can anyone think of a work around so that I can use the Row_Number function where the data is coming from a union?
The Folowing code is not working anymore. (500 error)
Set objRS = strSQL1.Execute
strSQL1 = "SELECT * FROM BannerRotor where BannerID=" & cstr(BannerID)
objRS.Open strSQL1, objConn , 2 , 3 , adCmdText
If not (objRS.BOF and objRS.EOF) Then
objRS.Fields("Exposures").Value =objRS.Fields("Exposures").Value + 1
objRS.update
End If
objRS.Close
The .execute Method works fine
strSQL1 = "UPDATE BannerRotor SET Exposures=Exposures+1 WHERE BannerID=" & cstr(BannerID)
objConn.Execute strSQL1
W2003 + IIS6.0
Pls advice?
I am writing a pgm that attaches to a SQL Server database. I have an Add stored procedure and an Update stored procedure. The two are almost identical, except for a couple parameters. However, the Add function works and the Update does not. Can anyone see why? I can't seem to find what the problem is...
This was my test:
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Update", cn)
'Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Add", cn)
Try
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserId", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = UserId
cmd.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = TextBox1.Text
[...etc more parameters...]
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ContactId
cn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Label1.Text = "done"
cn.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
Label1.Text = ex.Message
End Try
When I use the Add procedure, a record is added correctly and I receive the "done" message. When I use the Update procedure, the record is not updated, but I still receive the "done" message.
I have looked at the stored procedures and the syntax is correct according to SQL Server.
Please I would appreciate any advice...

TNX FOR ALL THE HELP I GET IN THIS Forum
I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian
View 5 Replies View RelatedOk I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.
i was tasked to created an UPDATE statement for 6 tables , i would like to update 4 columns within the 6 tables , they all contains the same column names. the table gets its information from the source table, however the data that is transferd to the 6 tables are sometimes incorrect , i need to write a UPDATE statement that will automatically correct the data. the Update statement should also contact a where clause
the columns are [No] , [Salesperson Code], [Country Code] and [Country Name]
i was thinking of doing
Update [tablename]
SET [No] =
CASE
WHEN [No] ='AF01' THEN 'Country Code' = 'ZA7' AND 'Country Name' = 'South Africa'
ELSE 'Null'
END
What is the best way to script this
I am attempting to run update statements within a SELECT CASE statement.
Select case x.field
WHEN 'XXX' THEN
UPDATE TABLE1
SET TABLE1.FIELD2 = 1
ELSE
UPDATE TABLE2
SET TABLE2.FIELD1 = 2
END
FROM OuterTable x
I get incorrect syntax near the keyword 'update'.
