Hi, does anyone know how to retrieve mistmatched records across 2 tables. To clarify, I have table A with 1175 records and Table B with 894 records. The records from table A match exactly some the records in table B.
I want to create another table with the extra 281 records from Table A which does not match that of Table B.
I have tried the query with Select where fields_1.a<>fields_2.b AND fields_2.a<>fields_2.b etc but that doesn't seem to work.
CREATE TABLE [RS_A] ([ColA] [varchar] (10)[ColB] [int] NULL)CREATE TABLE [RS_B] ([ColA] [varchar] (10)[ColB] [int] NULL)INSERT INTO RS_AVALUES ('hemingway' , 1)INSERT INTO RS_AVALUES ('vidal' , 2)INSERT INTO RS_AVALUES ('dickens' , 3)INSERT INTO RS_AVALUES ('rushdie' , 4)INSERT INTO RS_BVALUES ('hemingway' , 1)INSERT INTO RS_BVALUES ('vidal' , 2)I need to find all the rows in A which do not exist in Bby matching on both ColA and ColBso the output should bedickens 3rushdie 4So if i write a query like this , I dont get the right result setSELECT A.ColA, A.ColBFROMRS_A AINNERJOIN RS_B BONA.ColA <B.ColAORB.ColB <B.ColBBut if i do the following, i do get the right result, but followingseems convoluted.SELECT A.ColA, A.ColBFROMRS_A AWHERE ColA + CAST(ColB AS VARCHAR)NOT IN (SELECT ColA+CAST(ColB AS VARCHAR) FROMRS_B B)
I need to see the records from two tables where the mobilenumbers are not same. I have two tables named as messages and subscribers with Id, MobileNumber fields.
Now here I need to see the records where the mobile number exist in one table but not in other table. Please give me the sql query for this.
How do I right queries to fetch first 10 records, then next 10 and so on..
My table structure is as follows: Columns -------- MPAD_ID (IDENTITY INCREMENT YES ) MPAD_EmpCode (Employee Code) MPAD_Date (Date) MPAD_Status (Attendance Status i.e. P, A, etc)
Sample Records for the same is given below
MPAD_ID MPAD_EmpCode MPAD_Date MPAD_Status ------- ------------ ---------- ----------- 1 1001 11/01/2007 P 2 1001 11/02/2007 P 3 1001 11/03/2007 A ... .. .. .. 14 1002 11/01/2007 P 15 1002 11/02/2007 A 16 1002 11/03/2007 P
I'm inserting records from a table to another table, having multiple columns
SampleQuery :
insert into tableB (col1,col2....col10) select col1,col2....col10 from tableA
* while executing this query im getting error. (like varchar cant convert to numberic) * Here I have no clue in which column it is * also dont know which row causes it
I am using JDBC DatabaseMetaData's getColumns() to get the table names, column names and datatype of the columns. As a result, I am getting user tables as well as the system tables. How to fetch only the user tables excluding the system tables like sysindexes, etc. I know this is possible by executing a select query (using SYSOBJECTS and xtype = 'U'). But, is there anyway to fetch only the user tables using the databasemetadata API.
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select * from Details where Emp_Code in (" + selectedValues + ")", con);
I want to join a table called Materials to this now. Material table also has an Emp_Code column. How can I write a select sql query to fetch Emp_Code from both Details and Materials table.
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select D.Emp_Code, M.Emp_Code from Details D, Materials M where D.Emp_Code = M.Emp_Code in (" + selectedValues + ")", con);
I am currently working with C and SQL Server 2012. My requirement is to Bulk fetch the records and Insert/Update the same in the other table with some business logic? How do i do this?
I am using file path as package parameter in the SSIS 2012 package. This parameter has file path value which has spaces as there are spaces in some of the folders. When I execute the package from the SQL Agent job, I experience the following error:
Executed as user: xxxxx Microsoft (R) SQL Server Execute Package Utility Version 11.0.5058.0 for 64-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. The argument ""p_test";""xxxxxxx.comfilesCommon2015 "TEST" "Event" "ZONEDataCust" FilesOut" /Par "$ServerOption::LOGGING_LEVEL(Int16)";1 /Par "$ServerOption::SYNCHRONIZED(Boolean)";True /CALLERINFO "SQLAGENT" /REPORTING "E" " has mismatched quotes. The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed.
Parameter name: p_test Parameter value: xxxxxxx.comfilesCommon2015 TEST Event ZONEDataCust FilesOut
I am specifying this value in the sql agent job. The package is working fine locally with the same parameter value. I have tried using double quotes for the entire path but it did not work out. How can I get this resolved?
Currently, I'm using the following steps to migrate millions of records from Foxpro tables to SQL Server tables:
1. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then bcp to SQL Server tables in a dummy database. All the SQL tables have the same columns as the Foxpro tables. 2. Manipulate the data in the SQL tables of the dummy database and save the manipulated data into the SQL tables of the real database where the tables may have different structure from the corresponding Foxpro tables.
I only know the following ways to import Foxpro data into SQL Server:
#1. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then bcp to SQL Server tables #2. Transfer Foxpro records to .dat files and then Bulk Insert to SQL Server tables #3. DTS Foxpro records directly to SQL Server tables
I'm thinking whether the following choices will be better than the current way:
1st choice: Change step 1 to use #2 instead of #1 2nd choice: Change step 1 to use #3 instead of #1 3rd choice: Use #3 plus manipulating in DTS to replace step 1 and step 2
Is it possible to determine the data size of records in a table. basically I would like to run a select query with a condition and the result will be xKB. I know that this is possible on a database level, but can it be done on a record level (or number of records).
I am trying to update a field within one table with the values from another table. With the criteria that another field in each table are equal. What is the correct way to do this. My syntax is all wrong.
I report SQL Server table information (table names, field names, field datatypes, etc.) to my users using an ACCESS front end. Most of this information exists in the system tables. But I can't find a record count per table in the system tables. What's the fastest way to get a record count for all tables?
Hi! I have 2 tables (both have the same structure): ID -> bigint (identity, not for replication, primary key) Url -> nvarchar(1000) MainUrl -> nvarchar(1000)
Tbl1 cantains about 0,5 mln records, and tbl2 - 1 mln. What I need, is to copy records from tbl2 to tbl1. But records in tbl1 are unique, and it can't change. (Unique must be only "Url"; (and ID, but it's automatic)). How can I do this in fast way? Now I'm using SELECT for each record in tbl2 to see if it exist in tbl1. But it's a bit slow... Is there any faster method? (One thing: I'm beginner in databeses, so I'm wrote VB application to transfer records. How can I do it using only Microsoft Sql server?) -------------- I'm forgot to write, I'm using MsSql 2005.
I have two tables that have a common column (ID). Now, what i am trying to do is find what is not in one table that is in the other.
For instance:
Table A ID NAME 1 Tom 2 George 3 Richard
Table B ID NAME 1 Tom 3 Richard 4 Kevin
With this information, I am trying to write a query that would tell me that Kevin is the only record that doesn't exist in both tables ... like an outlier.
I have tried using something like the following:
SELECT distinct id, name FROM Table 1 INNER JOIN Table 2 ON Table 1.id <> Table 2.id
HiI'm using Access 2002. I have 2 tables tblGroupContact,tblGroupPermission, both have 2 fields identical structure:ContactID GroupID (Both are Composite keys and both hold integers)tblGroupContact holds everybody and the groups they are members of.tblGroupPermission holds only those people who have permission to makechanges to another part of the DB.The SQL at the end of post works, but opens a dialogue box looking fora parameter value 'query1.ContactID'Clicking enter or cancel (without entering anything) works OK.What have I done wrong to cause this parameter request.Thanks ColinKSELECT tblGroupContact.ContactID, tblGroupContact.GroupIDFROM tblGroupContact LEFT JOIN tblGroupPermission ON(tblGroupContact.ContactID = tblGroupPermission.ContactID) AND(tblGroupContact.GroupID = tblGroupPermission.GroupID)WHERE (((tblGroupPermission.ContactI*D) Is Null) AND((tblGroupPermission.GroupID) Is Null));
I need some help with this. I was able to count all the records in ourdatabase using the user_tables and user_tab_columns tables afterrefreshing the statistics on this database.We are doing an upgrade of a system and I will not be able to refreshthe statistics during the upgrade. I need more of a manual process ofrunning these queries.Now I do:select A.table_name, round(A.num_rows,0) as rowcount,count(b.table_name) as ColumnCountfrom dba_tables A, dba_tab_columns Bwhere A.table_name = B.table_name and A.owner in ('PS','SYSADM')group by A.table_name, A.num_rowsorder by rowcount desc, columncount descBut I can't use the num_rows anymore so I was thinking more to do this:Select A.table_name from(select count(*) from A.Table_name B where A.Table_name =B.Table_Name)from user_tableThis does not work for me since I don't know how to pass the table_namefrom the first select to the second select. The logic is there but thesyntax is not.Please help.
Hi,I was just wondering... Is there any built-in function in MS SQL, which willallow me to do rows' "capitalisation"?Lets say that in database.table.name I've got:"FOO BAR LTD.", which I want to change to "Foo Bar Ltd.""Foo bar LTD.", which I want to be "Foo Bar Ltd.".Is there any way of doing this or do I have to read it from database, changein some script, and then insert it back into the table?Hope it's all clear ;-)Thank you,Martin
one table must be deleted based on a filter (I mean the table is not delete completely but only some records), I would like to delete same records in the second table. for ex: table 1: pk: 1,2,3,4,5 table 2: pk: 1,2,3,4,5 table 1: deleting 1,2, 3 thus also in table 2 pk: 1,2,3 must be deleted. At the and of process Table1 and Table2 must have the same records (always also in the case of failure, errors and so on ).
The target is avoid using triggers. OUTPUT is not useful because it writes what is deleted (or may be useful but how to use it?).
I have searched in length and cant seem to find a specific answer.I have a tmptable to hold user "shoppingcart" ( internal supplies)What i want is to take when the user clicks order to take that table pull the records with that user and populate the order and order details tablesThe order table has a PK of orderID and the orderdetails has a FK of orderIDI know how to insert to the main table, but dont know how to populate the details at the same timeI have this.Insert into supplyordersselect requestor from tmpordercart where requestor = &name so how do i also take from the tmpordercart the itemno and quanity and put them into the orderdetails so that it links back to order table?

I am having a problem in adding new records in SQL 7.0 Database. I have two databases - one with table name DB1..WTEST and the other with table name DB2..TEST. I want to update records in DB2..TEST table when records are already in TEST table (by comparing primary key - with ignore duplicate option) & secondly, INSERT records in DB2..TEST table from DB1..WTEST table if the records do not exist in DB2..TEST table. The first option which is Updation, works fine but with second option I have problem. It works and records are INSERTED but I don't know the statistics of inserted records. Instead it gives a warning message - Duplicate records were Ignored -
Can somebody help me out or suggest some better solution for conditional record insertion. I used CURSOR option but it is only for Updation & Deletion.
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM DB1..WTEST INNER JOIN DB2..TEST ON DB1..WTEST.Name1 = DB2..TEST.Name1) BEGIN UPDATE DB1..TEST SET add1 = DB1..WTEST.Add1 FROM DB1..WTEST Print 'Updated' END
WHILE NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM DB1..WTEST INNER JOIN DB2..TEST ON DB1..WTEST.Name1 = DB2..TEST.Name1) BEGIN INSERT DB2..TEST SELECT DB1..WTEST.Name1, DB1..WTEST.Add1 FROM DB1..WTEST CONTINUE END

I am trying to delete the records in 2 related tables. The 'child' table has a field called [SETA],
I want to delete all the records in this table that contain the same info, as well all the fields in the parent table that is related to this table. They share the [ID] field as key. This is my code:
Code: DELETE FROM Student a full outer JOIN Qualification b on a.[ID] =b.[ID] WHERE b.[SETA] = @SETA
RID, RType, GID 001, m, g01 002, m, g01 002, m, g02 002, m, g03 003, m, g01 003, m, g03 a, T, g01 a, T, g02 a, T, g03 b, T, g02 b, T, g03 b, T, g04

Following is a stored procedure that currently runs on the system (compacted version). I need to combine this data with data from another Table .. tblAdjustments. The schema for this table is fairly close to tblShipmentDet.
Result: combine tblShipmentHdr + attached tblShipmentDet records with tblAdjustments records.
Would the best approach be to use a UNION SELECT?
@XToDate datetime = '7/31/2005' ,@XBegDate datetime = '7/1/2005' AS SELECT SHPH.ProductID, SHPH.ReceivedDate, SHPH.ShipmentNo, SHPD.Vendor, SHPD.Quantity, QRecvdDate = CASE WHEN SHPH.ReceivedDate < convert(varchar(40),@XBegDate,121) THEN NULL ELSE SHPH.ReceivedDate END, QShipQty = CASE WHEN SHPD.TransCd = 'F' THEN NULL WHEN SHPH.ReceivedDate < convert(varchar(40),@XBegDate,121) THEN NULL ELSE SHPH.ShippingQty END, PROD.ProductName, QOpenAccrual = CASE WHEN MEND.OpeningAccrual is Null THEN 0 ELSE MEND.OpeningAccrual END FROM dbo.tblShipmentHdr SHPH LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.tblProducts as PROD ON Left(SHPH.ProductID,7) = Left(PROD.ProductID,7) LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.tblShipmentDet as SHPD ON SHPH.ShipmentID = SHPD.ShipmentID LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.tblMonthend as MEND ON SHPH.ProductID = MEND.ProductID And MEND.MEPeriod = convert(varchar(40),@XBegDate,121) WHERE ((SHPH.ReceivedDate >= '7/1/2005' AND SHPH.ReceivedDate <= '7/31/2005') OR (SHPD.DatePaid >= '7/1/2005' AND SHPD.DatePaid <= '7/31/2005'))
