Count The Number Of Times A Row Satisfies CONTAINS
Sep 15, 2006
Is there a way to get the number of occurances of a word within a specific row?
I want to query a dataset and have a column act as the number of occurances of a word within that row. I also need to use Full-Text searching... Is this possible?
I need to write a SQL to find number of hours between a begin time and end time. The fields are varchar. There are several date functions in sql, but I am not able to figure out how to get the hours between two times that is not in date format.
I know only enough SQL to be dangerous, but I'm stumped by this general task.
I need to know the method for selecting info from several fields of the records that satisfy a group function criteria on one of the fields. Example: Table contains Employees, products, amounts. If I group on Employee, and product, I can find the total amount of each product's sales for that employee.
create view prod_sales_by_emplyoee select employee product SUM(amount) as empl_prod_total from sales group by employee, product
But if I want to know which product made each employee the most money, I don't know how to do that, because the MAX function works on each field individually, not by row. From the above view, (or a table created from it) I want to know how to identify, for each employee, the product they made the most money selling, and what proportion of their total sales that product accounted for. Then, I'd like to use those results to eliminate the top tier, and find their second place product, etc.
I can do this in Access by sorting the table produced from the above view by empl_prod_total in decending order, joining that to a view that groups by employee only and provides a total, then using a grouped query on the joined data, I can use the "FIRST" function to find the values in each field of the record with the highest sales for that employee. However SQL doesn't have the FIRST function in its aggregate functions.
I suspect there's a standard way SQL does this, but it wasn't in my class. HELP!
How is the best way to make a function for summing an arbitrary number of times values (table parm?)- I 've read it's necessary to convert to seconds, sum then convert back, but Im' wondering if there's an alternative.
Here's the example I want to sum: 00:02:01:30 00:01:28:10 00:01:01:50 00:06:50:30 00:00:01:50
I'm trying to quantify the number of times folks use SQL Server Management Studio to change client data in one of our production databases. Does SQL Server keep this statistic? How do I get to this data?
In report builder 2.0, I cannot determine how to display the number of times a field has been filled out when a  one to many relationship is involved. I get an error every time I use two aggregates.
I need to have a script where it ask the user for a value, the script will search for all records that match the value. Then it will display the numbers of records found and ask the user to enter a different value. The rest of the script will use this new value and increment by 1 n times as the number of records found. I started the script where it will ask for "HANDLE" and display the number of records found with that "HANDLE"
declare @HANDLE as varchar(30) declare @COUNT as varchar(10) declare @STARTINV as varchar(20)
set @HANDLE = ?C --This is the parameter to search for records with this value set @STARTINV = ?C --User will input the starting invoice number SELECT COUNT as OrderCount FROM SHIPHIST where HANDLE = @HANDLE
I just can't figure out how to proceed to use the entered invoice # and increment by 1 until it reach the number of records found.
This will be the end results:
Count=5 --results from query STARTINV=00010 --Value entered by user
hi can anyone tell me how to count number of records(rows) in a table without using "COUNT" function.for practise iam trying to implement it through queries.
The following SQL works on Access and Oracle to return the number of Groups(Rows) of the SQL. In MS-SQL this SQL is not valid. What is the equivalent in MS-SQL?
Select Count(1) FROM (Select ShipRegion, Sum(FREIGHT) as [TotalFreight] from ORDERS WHERE OrderID < 123456 GROUP BY ShipRegion )
In the report I am working on, I have a "textbox39" in a table which has groups. I want to have another "textbox29" outside the table to count the number of "textbox39"s that are actually displayed and also the number of "textbox1"s that have a certain value (e.g. "1") in the final report. I tried to use "Sum(ReportItems!textbox39.Value)" but the compiler complains
Error 1 [rsAggregateReportItemInBody] The Value expression for the textbox 'textbox29' uses an aggregate function on a report item. Aggregate functions can be used only on report items contained in page headers and footers. d:perfperfreportingprojectPerformanceTestDetails v.3.rdl 0 0
Error 7 [rsReportItemReference] The Value expression for the textbox €˜textbox29€™ refers to the report item €˜textbox39€™. Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope. d:perfperfreportingprojectPerformanceTestDetails v.3.rdl 0 0
Anybody has any idea how to solve it? Thanks so much, Zhiyan
My understanding from a previous thread was that ExecuteNonQuery() could be used to display the number of rows returned. Does this also work when calling stored procedures and passing parameters? I have code (shown) that perfectly calls and returns Distinct models downloaded by Country. Yet the rowCount variable displays a -1. What should I do?Dim myCommand As New SqlClient.SqlCommand myCommand.CommandText = "ap_Select_ModelRequests_RequestDateTime" myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@selectDate", dateEntered) myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@selectCountry", CInt(selectCountry)) myCommand.Connection = con con.Open() Dim rowCount As Integer = myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() numberParts.Text = rowCount.ToString con.Close() Thank you.
hello, i have a stored procedure SELECT CommentID, UserName, CommentingDate FROM Comm WHERE PictureID = @PictureID ORDER BY CommentingDate DESC witch shows me the users who commented a Picture with PictureID = x I need to add two rows at that stored procedure, one to show the number of total comments at that picutre (like counting the number of rows returned) and the second to show count the DISTINCT users who commented that picture I tryied with COUNT but i have to use GROUP BY and i don't think this is good... I hope you understand... please help me, thanks
This is my SQL : Select p.patientid,p.patientname,p.patientIc,pvi.DateOfAdmission,pvi.visitid,pvi.ward,pvi.bedno,pf.status,pvi.SurgeonName,(f.Title + ' ( Ver ' + (CAST(f.Version as Char(10))) + ')') as Title FROM patient p, patientvarianceinfo pvi,patientForm pf,Form f where (p.PatientName LIKE '%" & Name & "%' or p.PatientIc LIKE '%" & ic & "%' or pvi.Ward LIKE '%" & ward & "%' or pvi.Bedno LIKE '%" & bed & "%') and (p.patientid = pvi.patientid) and (p.patientid = pf.patientid) and (pvi.patientid = pf.patientid) and (pf.FormID = f.FormID)and p.patientid in (select patientid from patientform pf)how do i get the number of rows?
