How To Display The Column Description In Query Analyser
Jun 1, 2004
Hello All.
I have created a table with short name as the file name but have entered the description in the column box (when creating a new table - see attached). I would like to show this description information in query analyser. Can this be done? I used sp_help <table name> but it doesn't show the description.
Please advise. Thank you.
Best regards

How can I add something to display something like
if code_value = '1' then display 'Blue'

I have a table with a column AttributeNumber and a column AttributeValue. The data is like this:
OrderNo. AttributeNumber AttributeValue
1.-Order_1 2001 A
2.-Order_1 2002 B
3.-Order_1 2003 C
4.-Order_2 2001 A
5.-Order_2 2002 B
6.-Order_2 2003 C
So the logic is as follows:
I need to display in my query the values are coming from Order_1, means AttributreValues coming from AttibuteNumbers: 2001,2002,2003...and Order_2 the same thing.
Not sure how to create my Select here since the values are in the same table

Hello,I have a (big) table which is not normalized, but for i need at themoment i thinkthat's no problem. Indeed, what i would like to do is to select thename field andthe note. The problem is that i want to display the note in 2different columns.the first columns will show the number (count) of time that a certainnote (e.g note=4)appears for a certain name and in the other column the same thing butfor a different note value.so each column noteX will display the number of time that the notewith the value X appears for each namefor example, to the following table:Name | note | job | city | id |----------------------------------------john | 4 | jb1 | hamb | 1 |john | 5 | jb2 | hamb | 2 |john | 5 | jb3 | hamb | 3 |john | 5 | jb4 | hamb | 4 |Mark | 4 | jb1 | mun | 5 |Mark | 4 | jb2 | mun | 6 |Mark | 4 | jb5 | mun | 7 |Mark | 5 | jb1 | mun | 8 |peter | 5 | jb3 | berl | 9 |peter | 5 | jb5 | berl | 10 |frank | 4 | jb6 | v.form | 11 |frank | 5 | jb3 | v.form | 12 |frank | 5 | jb2 | v.form | 13 |the result should be:Name | note5 | note4 |-------------------------john | 3 | 1 |Mark | 1 | 3 |peter | 2 | 0 |frank | 2 | 1 |How should be the right SQL command to show the data i want?Rui DiasJoin Bytes!Thanks a lot

Hello everybody,
I'm developing a report using the following structure :
declare @sql as nvarchar(4000)
declare @where as nvarchar(2000)
set @sql = 'select ....'
If <conditional1>
begin
set @where = 'some where'
end
If <conditional2>
begin
set @where = 'some where'
end
set @sql = @sql + @where
exec(@sql)
I run it in query analyser and works fine, but when I try to run in Reporting Services, Visual studio stops responding and the cpu reaches 100 %.
I realize that when I cut off the if clauses, then it works at Reporting services.
Does anybody know what is happening?
Why the query works in query analyser and doesn't work in Reporting Service ?
Thanks,
Maurício

I am having trouble bringing "description" column in to my sp and them at the out put. in the ppatient_status_mstr there is a column called“description” which has patient status such as “discharged” “termed collection” etc... How do I use the SP to bring this description into application? I am assigning it to @mytext. I am not sure how to declare “description” in the SP? Every time I use it I get errors like:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 20
The multi-part identifier "pm.alerts_ind" could not be bound.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 40
Invalid column name 'description'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure CheckStatus, Line 43
Invalid column name 'description'.
I want to say if user picks a description from application . show me that description in output. But I am having trouble how to use the description? I am not sure if my “IF” statements are correct either?
Here is the procedure
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CheckStatus] (@enc_id varchar(36) OUTPUT, @Mytext varchar(50) OUTPUT, @data_ind Char(1) OUTPUT)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE
@alerts_ind char(1)
[code]....

Hi
This what i did , since i need to maintain
five sql servers ,i thought i will build a repository
so on my desk top (running sql server ) i created a
table name master_dbscript with the following fields
server_name varchar(20),
dbname varchar(20)
db_create_scripts text
using enterprise manager-- all tasks --generate sql scripts , (cut & paste
to the insert statement in query analyser, the following is the insert statement
insert into master_dbscript values ('isd11t','test','ALTER TABLE [dbo].[child] DROP CONSTRAINT FK_child_parent GO /****** Object: Trigger dbo.test_patcase Script Date: 25/08/2000 12:10:09 ******/ if exists (select * from sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[test_patcase]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsTrigger') = 1)drop trigger [dbo].[test_patcase] GO ')
oops it created all the objects in the database where i tried to run the
insert statement. god saved me , i tried this with the test database.
when i tried the same with bcp it worked fine and i was able to see the
record in my table (one record) ,note you cannot use dts because it will support maximum 8000 chars only .
what is the problem with the query analyser ?

I noticed that query analyser is much more quicker than EManager when I access my database from my hosting provider... is there any way to see the properties of the table X for example as one can do with EM...
I would be grateful if you could provide me with any query sample conserning this issue...
Thanks

I am currently using the trial version of SQL 2000 to connect to a remote db so I can query the data.
When the trial version runs out what can i do? will MSDE work for me or will the express edition of SQL 2005 be better?
Thanks! Bruno

Hi,
I am studying SQL Server by myself (I am a Sybase DBA) and I have a little problem with the Query Analyser.
I actually have 2 server in my PC (XP) and I can see them via SQL Server Enterprise Manager, I also can open Query Analyser for these two server via Enterprise Manager.
When I try to launch SQL Query Analyser from the start menu, I can't see any of my two server and can't chose a connection.
Do I need to write some parameter somewhere?
It's not a big problem as I can work via Enterprise Manager but I just want to know.
Thank you for your response.
