Get Percentage With Variation Of Field Values (country Names)
Sep 14, 2006
Any help here would be greatly appreciated...
Unfortunately, data wasn't filtered prior to getting inserted into this table. Now I am stuck with cleaning it up. I have thought about writing a query to update all the values, but there are just too many variations, including spelling mistakes, so I've ruled that out as a possible solution.
I have a table which has a Country field but the values per record vary. For example US, U.S., USA, United States, UK, United Kingdom, Canada, Can, etc. I'm trying to find the percent of records per country.
Sample table data: mytable
Id Name Country
1 John US
2 James UK
3 Jane United States
4 Mary Canada
5 Jack U.S.
6 Tony United Kingdom
7 Jeff US
8 Tom Canada
9 Beth UK
10 Mark USA
I would like to show
US: 50% --> (includes any variation of US ncluding US, U.S., USA, United States)
UK: 30%
CAN: 20%
I've made several attempts myself with no luck. Thanks in advance.
I am in a situation where I need to find out unique field names with different values in a table having 200+ columns. Let's say I have two rows with 200+ columns ( I exported these rows from Lotus Notes to SQL Server) I am not sure what columns makes unique of these rows. It's going to be tedious by checking each column values. Is there anyway I can write a squl query on these two rows which outputs column names which are having unique values. I would appreciate If anybody gives me hint about achieving desired result
This code displays dates, File name, and File size for four seperate dates 11/20/2007 , 11/30/2007, 12/30/2007 and 01/31/2007 . I'm trying to show the percentage growth from date to date (ie 11/20/2007 -11/30/2007 percentage growth)
is there a way i can get the previous date file size for each entry, so i can have a variable for the calculation. Or i can get the calculate it within this code (ie database_size_mb / ((database_size_md ) where database_size_datetime -1) *100 or whatever the formula is for percentage growth.
Code Snippet SELECT Database_Size_Datetime, Database_file_name, Database_Size_Mb FROM RC_STAT.dbo.Tbl_Database_Statistics AS Tbl_Database_Statistics_1 GROUP BY Database_Size_Datetime, Database_file_name, Database_Size_Mb
i have a report with contains preview of percentage columns example of percentage of student marks in perticular subject like 95%. and if suppose any student not attend any test i have to dispaly like not attended statement.
so i have display two fields like 95% and not attended statement in same column, i given Cstr(Fields!Data.Value), it gives two fields with contains not attended statement of perticular query and it dispalys 0.95 % . but i need 95% and not attended statement for perticular query in same column.
is there any solution for dispalying string and percentage values in single column for given perticular query and those two values are disply same result compare with preview at the time of export to excel sheet
SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,
numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,
numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,
numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,
numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,
bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = 0,
bControlRiskIsAffirmed = 0,
bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = 0,
bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = 0,
bCommentsIsAffirmed = 0
FROM EngagementAuditAreas WITH(NOLOCK) ...
And what I need is to conditionalize the values of the "IsAffirmed" fields by looking at their corresponding "num" fields. Something like this (which doesn't work).
UPDATE EngagementAuditAreas
SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,
numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,
numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,
numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,
numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,
bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = (numInherentRiskID IS NULL),
bControlRiskIsAffirmed = (numControlRiskID IS NULL),
bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = (numCombinedRiskID IS NULL),
bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = (numApproachTypeID IS NULL),
bCommentsIsAffirmed = (parent.txtComments IS NULL)
I am creating matrix report with grouping on WEEK and Fiscalyearweek,I need to calculate of difference between FY14W01,FY15W01 ande  percentage of those..how to calculate in ssrs level.
I have a website where members can add new messages to the site. But now I put somoe restrictions that for each member can add messages only the specified time intervals. For eg:- for one member, I put the time interval is from 1 to 10 (its in hour format and datatype is varchar).Means this member can add messages in between the time 1 AM and 10 AM. Now how to check whether current time is in between 1 and 10.
Is there anyway to determine what the resulting Field Names are going to be from a SQL Statement?
For example: SELECT TABLE1.FIELD1, TABLE1.FIELD2, TABLE1.FIELD3, TABLE2.FIELD1 AS ANOTHERNAME FROM TABLE1 INNER JOIN TABLE2 ON TABLE1.PK = TABLE2.FK
resulting field names: FIELD1 FIELD2 FIELD3 ANOTHERNAME
Seems easy enough splitting all values before "FROM" by comma and doing some manipulation to remove table names and anything before the word "AS". However, it gets more difficult when you have complex CASE statements embedded in you query that may also contain commas.
Just a shot in the dark because I don't know if anyone has already done something like this before.
Howdy all,I'm wishing to write a stored proc to return only the field names from a table. What I've tried gets the field names but also returns all of the data in each row. I only want the field names. Is this possible?Thanks!JP
This is a followup to my last post. If a field name is changed in the database, what is the easiest way to determine what stored procedures and triggers that reference that field are now broken?
Hi,We have a database with some tables with (what I woulddenote as) 'referred field names'.Like this:DataTable1 with fields F1, F2, F3DataTable2 with fields F3, F4, F5DataTable3 with fields F1, F5, F2We also have a table with field namesFieldNameTable with fields FIELD, NAMEcontaining data like:FIELD NAME----------------F1 FieldName1F2 FieldName2F3 FieldName3F4 FieldName4F5 FieldName5Now, we need a way to query the data of these tables, butthe result of the query should show the 'referred field names'from the FieldNameTable.For example, querying DataTable3 should produce the outputFieldName1 FieldName5 FieldName2------------------------------------------... ... ...... ... ...Any idea how (and whether) this can be done with an SQL query?Thanks in advance for tips & tricks.Dirk Vdm
I've got 2 servers and they are using replication to synch the data from one to other. I've got a Full Text Catalog on a table on both servers. - I repopulate the catalogs completely on both servers(now remember that the base tables of those catalogs are under replication and are exactly the same!!) -When I run the exact same qquery against the 2 databases using the Full Text Catalogs I'd just finished rebuilding, I get a different number of results returned in my result set on one then I do on the other... How the heck could this be possible?
I can't seem to find a sample code, either here or on the net - - so I'll go ahead and ask...
What I'm looking for is a sample of how to query a database, so that I can populate a listbox with the table names from a database - - and then, populate another listobx with the field names from the database, in order to build a user-driven sql statement builder....
either of the above (at least the field name part) - either a code sample, or a link, will be greatly appreciated) - -
I need a statement or sp that will display, for a given user database, an individual table's fieldnames, datatype, and length. Any help is appreciated. Randy

Hi,I am trying to create a stored procedures (SQL 7.0), to provide dataina crosstab format.(I'm using Crystal Reports 8.5, but the Crosstab capabilities areterrible, so I have to do as much as possible on the SQL side)I have a table [Occurrences] with the following fields:Year (int)Month (int)Occurs (int)Claims (int)I need a query to give me the following format:Acct_Month 2001 2002 2003Occurs Claims Occurs Claims Occurs ClaimsJanuary 120 180 132 196 110 140February 154 210 165 202 144 178March etc.......Catch! I need the Year field name to be the contents of the fieldYear in the Table (2001, 2002, 2003...). Not the usual Year_1, Year_2approach.I got the month name ok...Acct_Month = DATENAME(month, Convert(Varchar(2), Month) + '/01/'+Convert(Char(4),Year))Is it possible to do this easely, without the use of cursors?Any help would be much appreciated.Luis Pinto
is there any "robust" way to find out the name of a field in the pipeline by it's Lineage ID programatically? There is a sample code out there (on one of the blogs) but it seams not to be reliable...
The usecase is easy... What is the field name in an error output of that column that causes the error? We don't want to have hardcoded LineageIDs in the error handling so I think it's the best idea to go with field names... However we only get that LineageID...
How canI get all field names in a table using sql query? Now I am not interested in the data in this table, what I am interested in is just the schema, i.e. all field names. Thanks.
While creating a view in SQl Server 2005 Management Studio Or Interation Services on a SQL Server 2000 database using "*" something very strange happens. Has anyone every seen this happen before?
The new view is created something like the following:
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[new_view]
AS
SELECT * FROM Table1
GO
However, when right-clicking on the new view, and choosing "Design", the SELECT scrambles the field names with aliases of the other field names. When the view is run, the result set is incorrect. It may look something like the following:
SELECT Field1, Field2 AS Field3, Field3 AS Field4, Field4 AS Field5, . . . From Table1
I am having two datasets in the same report, the column names are the same, in both the datasets, Now How can I use the individual fields in same report. If I use (Fields!xyz.Value, "dsDataSet1") and (Fields!xyz.Value, "dsDataSet2") It is giving me syntax error.
How can I use both these fieds, I do not want any aggregates
I have been tasked with an interesting problem using SQL 2005. Simplified it looks like this: I have two tables both well over a million rows, totalling unrelated keys between the tables. I need to find records in table one that do not exist in table two, the twist is this, I need to find rows where the invoice number in table 1 does not exist at all in table 2 or where the invoice number exists but the timestamp associated with the invoice in table 2 is more than 10secs different than the invoice/timestamp in table 1. I'm fairly new to sql and, although I can do the really simple stuff, this one is over my head I'm afraid. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. I would also like to hear any suggestions regarding books that might give examples of sql code at around this level of difficulty. Thanks in advance for your assistance! Paul
I have been trying to get this code work, but I could not. Every thing seems going well. However, The result of running the sql query is strange. It shows the field names twice. Eg:) if you have a table called "newtable" that has two fields[Custnumber, Custname], you will get somthing like this [Custnumber, Custname Custnumber, Custname]. I have tried many times, but I couldn't fix it.
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) handles Mybase.Load
if not page.Ispostback then
try Sqlconnection = New Sqlconnection (connectionString)
querystring = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNs WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Newtable'"
SqlCommand = New SqlCommand(queryString, Sqlconnection)
for debug purposes i tried to copy paste some Query Analyser output into Excel... the data pastes fine, but i can't get the field-names to copy/paste. is there a trick? izy
Why is it that when you change a field name is SQL Server it sometimes completely messes things up. I renamed a field in one of my tables from Emp# to EmpNumber. I had a view based on this table and naturally I knew I would have to change a view I had based on the table. I opened the view and changed the field from Emp# to EmpNumber but when I tried to open the view I got an error “Invalid column Name EMP#”. I have not been able to fix this. I have dropped and recreated the view, refreshed all the objects using enterprise manager, refreshed all the objects using Query Analyzer, shut down and restarted my computer, taken my database offline and put it back on line. The field name EMP# is not in any tables in my database and not referenced any views or procs . I am just starting on this database so I could verify this very easily because I only have a few views and procs.
Has anyone had this problem or more importantly does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?
I do a SELECT * from table command in an ASP page to build a text fileout on our server, but the export is not to allow a field name rows ofrecords.

Hi,I have a C# web app that searches my database table using thefollowing search parametersSearch string, criteria (< =) and the field you want to perform yoursearch on. My understanding is that stored procedure is the way to go.What's the best way of doing this using stored procedures. Can Idefine a placeholder for the field name?Ex.SELECT field1, field2... FROM Table WHERE field1='value1' where field1and value1 are both sent from code.If it's not possible then what is the best way to approach thisproblem? I see so many searches like that on the internet. I can onlydo them with inline SQL and not stored procedure.Thank youMaz.
I have a .NET program that can connect to either an Access 97 database or anSQL Server 7 database. In the database I have two tables which have a fieldcalled ID. When I run a query like "SELECT A.*, B.* FROM A, B", the queryreturns those fields as "A.ID" and "B.ID" when connected to Access 97, butas "ID" and "ID" in SQL Server 7. Is there anyway to get SQL Server toprepend the table name to the field name in a case like this and not returnduplicate field names like that without having to specify aliases for thefields?- Don
I am importing a file creating by an application which exports the file into .dbf format. Very unfortunately, this .dbf file can have fields with IDENTICAL column_names. Utilizing ActiveX, I create an ado connection to the .dbf file using a visual foxpro drver. However, and not unexpectantly, I can not do the 'select *' from the file if there are duplicate names.
Can anyone make recommendations here that might help?
Oh, this is SQL200 in case that impacts what you might advise!!!!
