Left Joins And Column Mapping
Jan 30, 2006
Hello,
I am trying to understand the concept of left joins. I have the following query and am not sure about the left joins.
I am familiar with joins but the left join below is a little confusing.Below it seems like a third table is involved. Is this because there is no column to map to in the from table? Also, since tables sl and sc are mapped based on the SecurityID column and sl and ex do not have any common columns, table sc is mapped to ex using the left join? Which table's data will be returned based on the left join?
I checked the column type for the Exchange column(ex.LSECode) and it appears varchar(3).
SELECT SecurityID = sl.SecurityID
, Security = RTRIM(sec.Name) + ' - ' + RTRIM(sec.Description)
, Ticker = ISNULL(ids.RIC, ids.Ticker)
, Sedol = ids.Sedol
, ISIN = ids.ISIN
, Exchange = ex.LSECode
, Country = cty.iso_code
FROM #SecList sl
JOIN SecurityClassification sc
ON sl.SecurityID = sc.securityId
AND sc.source = 99
LEFT JOIN exchange_table ex
ON sc.ExchangeID = ex.exchange
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi All,
Im having a problem with a statement i cannot seem to get 2 left joins working at the same time 1 works fine but when i try the second join i get this error:-
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'children_tutorial.school_id=schools.idx LEFT JOIN regions ON children_tutorial.region_id=region.idx'.
My SQL statment is as follows :-
SELECT children_tutorial.*,schools.schoolname,regions.rname FROM children_tutorial LEFT JOIN schools ON children_tutorial.school_id=schools.idx LEFT JOIN regions ON children_tutorial.region_id=region.idx
I am using an Access database i have tried all sorts to get it working and its driving me mad!! any help would be really appreciated.

To the wise,
This may be a very simple problem but it's been racking may brains for a while and I just can't seem to think it through clearly.
I'm trying to return a query which uses a left join and where. I'm hoping to get a result set which shows - let us says all the departments in a company. I would like to see all the department but only the names of department heads that earn 20.000+.
In MS Access I used a subquery. My subquery returned only departments with department heads that earned 20.000+ - I then left joined the departments table to that query - no problem.
With MSSQL I've tried IN, ANY, ALL but my result sets only returns the departments that earn 20.000+ and the employees for those particular departments.
I'm thinking there must be some way of doing this without having to use a union clause.
Thanks for taking the time to read this message through.
Sincerely,
Arthur Lambiris

My understanding of relevant topics as well as SQL Books Online definition of left outer joins is that each record in the left table will be retrieved and where no associated right record exists then null values will be displayed for records in the right hand table but I've obviously misunderstood and would be grateful if someone could show me how to produce the required effect.
My scenario is pretty simple: 2 tables DiningTables and Reservations with columns as follows:
DiningTables: TBL_ID and TBL_Location - TBL_ID is the primary key
Reservationss::RES_TBL_ID and RES_Diner_Name - RES_TBL_ID is the primary key
There are 8 records in DiningTables and 4 records in Reservations and the objective is obtain the following output:
TBL_ID RES_Diner_Name
1 Jones
2 Smith
3 Bloggs
4 Mack
5 null
6 null
7 null
8 null
The SQL query I used is
SELECT Reservations.RES_Diner_Surname, DiningTables.TBL_ID
FROM DiningTables LEFT OUTER JOIN
Reservations ON DiningTables.TBL_ID = Reservations.RES_TBL_ID
That query generates 11 rows as follows:
TBL_ID RES_Diner_Name
1 Jones
1 Smith
1 Bloggs
1 Mack
2 null
3 null
4 null
5 null
6 null
7 null
8 null
I'm clealry missing something incredibly obvious and I kinda feel like the village idiot and would be extremely grateful for a clue!!

Hi All,
This may be a stupid question. But I just want to make sure i'm going in right direction.
I wrote the following query. My purpose is to retrieve all the members who submitted loan applications.
I just want to make sure my query is right? Can anyone veryfy this query?
Do I have to use loanApplication table first instead of members. Also Do I need to use right outer joins instead of left outer joins?
Code Block
SELECT Member.CUMemberId, LoanApplication.SubmittedOn, Member.LastName, Member.FirstName, Member.MiddleName, LoanApplication.Amount,
LoanApplication.Decision, LoanApplication.Term, Rate.InterestRate, LoanApplication.Status, Member.CuStatus
FROM Member INNER JOIN
MemberLogon ON Member.Id = MemberLogon.MemberFK INNER JOIN
LoanApplication ON Member.LastLoanApplicationFK = LoanApplication.Id AND Member.Id = LoanApplication.MemberFK LEFT OUTER JOIN
Account ON Member.Id = Account.MemberFK AND LoanApplication.LoanFK = Account.Id LEFT OUTER JOIN
Rate ON LoanApplication.RateFK = Rate.Id
WHERE (LoanApplication.Status = 'Submitted')
Thanks

Hello,
I am working on a query that has 11 left join statements, some are hitting against reference data that has a small amount of records, whereas others not so small. From a performance standpoint, should I look at rewriting this query, and how would I do so? What is an alternative to left joins; any examples anyone has?
Thanks.

Hi,
First of all, is this an appropriate place to get answers related to SQL CE? If not, do you have any recomended forums elsewhere?
I'm trying to get a list of various related tables using ResultSets on SQLCE 3. The query is something like this:
SELECT A.*
, F.Descricao AS FamiliasDescricao
, M.Descricao AS MarcasDescricao
, I.Descricao AS IVADescricao
FROM Artigos AS A
LEFT OUTER JOIN Familias AS F ON A.FamiliasUID = F.UID
LEFT OUTER JOIN Marcas AS M ON A.MarcasUID = M.UID
LEFT OUTER JOIN IVA AS I ON A.IVAUID = I.UID
INNER JOIN ArtigosTipos AS AT ON A.ArtigosTiposUID = AT.UID;
The column ArtigosTiposUID cannot be NULL, so an INNER JOIN is used, but the other UID columns can have a NULL value, and I need all the rows on Artigos to show up even if these other UIDs are NULL. The query runs fine like this in VS2005, returning NULL values for the columns if there are no rows on the other tables, both on the SQL Server 2005 database and the .sdf database used on the Windows Mobile device. But on Windows Mobile SQL CE gives me an "Unspecified error [7]", Native error 25607, an the stack trace ends with:
em System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand.ProcessResult s()
em System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand.CompileQueryP lan()
em System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand.ExecuteComman d()
em System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand.ExecuteResult Set()
If I replace all the LEFT OUTER JOINs with INNER JOINs only the rows where all UIDs have a value show up, but as I said, I want all rows on tabela Artigos. Even if I remove all JOINs except the last one and replace it with a LEFT OUTER JOIN I get the same erro, all rows having the column ArtigosTiposUID defined... it seems as if the simple presence of LEFT OUTER JOIN makes SQL CE return an error.
Is there a way to run the queries on VS using the SQL CE engine so that one can check whether the query will run successfuly on Windows Mobile?
Any other sugestions?
Thank you,
Hugo Lopes

Could somebody tell me what is the secret of being able to write a SELECT statement having mulitple LEFT or RIGHT joins, I seem to get in trouble as soon as I add the second LEFT join, as I am obviously doing it wrong.
These are my tables, would somebody mind having a go,or explaining what do i need to be aware of in a case like this
emailDetails table ( emailID_PK,emailName,emailText,emailSubject,emailN otificationTypeID)
emailRecipients table (emailID_PK, RecipientID, SentToEmail)
luEmailNotificationTypes look up table (emailNOtificationTypeID_PK, emailNotificationTypeName)
Thanks

Other than being much less readable, is there a downside to combining left and right outer joins in the same SELECT? I'm reviewing some generally poor code done by a contractor and it's peppered with queries with both left and right joins. I've always thought it was just a semantic difference, but I was just wondering if, other than readability, there were any performance issues.
Thanks,
Pete

Hi,I'm curious about the computational complexity of a query I have. Thequery contains multiple nested self left joins, starting with a simpleselect, then doing a self left join with the results, then doing a selfleft join with those results, etc. What puzzles me is that the timerequired for the query seems to grow exponentially as I add additionalleft joins, which I didn't expect. I expected the inner select toreturn about 25 rows (it does), then I expected the self join to resultin about 25 rows (it does), etc. Each join just adds another column; itdoesn't add more rows. So the left part of the join is staying the samesize, and so is the right part of the join, since I'm always joiningwith the same table.So I would think the time for this query should be (time to join 25rows against the source table) * (num joins), but it seems to besomething like (num rows) ^ (num joins). Any ideas? I'm just trying tounderstand the system a little better. (But if you have any ideas aboutimproving the query, I'm always open to those, too.)The execution plan is what you'd expect: an index seek loop-joined withanother index seek, the results of which are merge-joined with anotherindex seek, the results of which are merge-joined with another indexseek, ad nauseum, until a final "compute scalar cost (39%)" and "select(0%)"For the brave and curious, I've pasted the query below.Thanksselect right(x.cp_yyyymm, 2)+'-'+left(x.cp_yyyymm, 4) as [Month],table0.cp_num_loans/1 as [AFCM9704], table1.cp_num_loans/1 as[AFC9104], table2.cp_num_loans/1 as [BFAT01C], table3.cp_num_loans/1 as[BFAT02B], table4.cp_num_loans/1 as [BFAT03D], table5.cp_num_loans/1 as[BFAT03E], table6.cp_num_loans/1 as [BFAT03F], table7.cp_num_loans/1 as[BFAT04A], table8.cp_num_loans/1 as [BFAT04C], table9.cp_num_loans/1 as[BFAT04D], table10.cp_num_loans/1 as [BFAT99C] from (((((((((((selectdistinct cp_yyyymm from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id in('AFCM9704', 'AFC9104', 'BFAT01C', 'BFAT02B', 'BFAT03D', 'BFAT03E','BFAT03F', 'BFAT04A', 'BFAT04C', 'BFAT04D', 'BFAT99C') and cp_yyyymmbetween 200304 and 200504) as x left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='AFCM9704') astable0 on x.cp_yyyymm=table0.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='AFC9104') as table1on x.cp_yyyymm=table1.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT01C') as table2on x.cp_yyyymm=table2.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT02B') as table3on x.cp_yyyymm=table3.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT03D') as table4on x.cp_yyyymm=table4.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT03E') as table5on x.cp_yyyymm=table5.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT03F') as table6on x.cp_yyyymm=table6.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT04A') as table7on x.cp_yyyymm=table7.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT04C') as table8on x.cp_yyyymm=table8.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT04D') as table9on x.cp_yyyymm=table9.cp_yyyymm) left join (select cp_yyyymm,cp_num_loans from cp_deal_history where cp_deal_id='BFAT99C') astable10 on x.cp_yyyymm=table10.cp_yyyymm order by x.cp_yyyymm

Hello,
I have a query with 11 left joins. Some hits against tables with small amounts of reference data, whereas others are not so small. Should I rewrite this in another way, as performance is a requirement on this one? Or, should I do it another way?
How would I rewrite left joins? Any examples?
Thanks.

I need to do multiple left outer join to return search profiles that could contain NULL in them that could also be foreign keys. I bolded the three IDs that could be NULL or have a foreign key for a value. An example with my code would be great I've tried decyphering the many employee and company examples on the web but I haven't figured it out yet. Right now I only get profiles that have foreign key values and it misses the rest in the search. So NULL MakeID or ModelID no result on that item my SQL statement below. Using SQL Server 2005. Pretty new this to SQL and databases but so far this has been the only trying part.
Thanks
String dbsql = "SELECT a.EquipmentID " +
" , a.SerialNo " +
" , b.Category " +
" , c.Subcategory " +
" , d.Make " +

" AND a.StatusID = f.StatusID";

Until today, I was always under the impression that left vs. right was determined by which side of the comparison operator the table was located.
In other words:
LEFT JOIN LeftTable.ID = RightTable.ID
would pull all the records from LeftTable and those that matched from from RightTable and that:
RIGHT JOIN RightTable.ID = LeftTable.ID
would pull exactly the same result set but I was wrong. So, if it is not the table position in relation to the comparison operator, is it simply that the tables listed first in the FROM clause aren the ones "Left" of those subsequently entered?

Hi, I am trying to write a query that gets the percentage of students in specific racial groups in specific schools. Some ethnicity values of students are null so I have to use left joins. My query is below, when I run it I get the error "join expression not supported", I've tried a couple different ways of doing it but I always get that error or "syntax error in from clause". Can anybody help me with formatting multiple and nested left joins in general?
Thanks in advance.
drop table percentMinorities;

select s1.schoolid,
round(count(s2.studentid)/count(s1.studentid),2) as percentWhite,

round(count(s4.studentid)/count(s1.studentid),2) as percentHispanic,
round(count(s5.studentid)/count(s1.studentid),2) as percentAsian
from
students as s1 left join
(students as s2 left join
(students as s3 left join

I'm trying to write a 3 table query using two LEFT JOINs. Originally, I only had one LEFT JOIN and prior to the addition of the the third table (parts) this query worked. Now it doesn't. I think it has to do with my GROUP BY.
SELECT
quote.quote_id, parts.material, machining_operations.machine, machining_operations.per_roughing, machining_operations.per_of_machining,
machining_operations.programming_time, machining_operations.setup_time, machining_operations.cycle_time, machining_operations.notes
quote.part_name, quote.revision_no, quote.quantity, quote.initial_volume, quote.final_volume, quote.material_price, machining_operations.mo_id
FROM quote
LEFT JOIN machining_operations
ON machining_operations.quote_num = quote.quote_id
LEFT JOIN parts
ON parts.package_no = quote.package_no AND parts.part_name = quote.part_name

Hi,
The following query should return a list of clr_id's that have a match in at least 1 of the other fields mentioned in the joins.
declare @keyWord varchar(40)
set @keyWord = 'merc'
set NOCOUNT on
SELECT distinct clr.clr_id
FROM CLR
LEFT OUTER JOIN CO ON CLR.CO_ID = CO.CO_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN CLR_NM ON CLR.CLR_ID = CLR_NM.CLR_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN CLR_USE_YR ON CLR.CLR_ID = CLR_USE_YR.CLR_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN MODL ON CLR_USE_YR.MODL_ID = MODL.MODL_ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN PAINT_CD ON CLR.CLR_ID = PAINT_CD.CLR_ID
WHERE co.long_nm like '%'+@keyWord+'%'
OR clr_nm.clr_nm like '%'+@keyWord+'%'
OR clr_use_yr.yr_num like '%'+@keyWord+'%'
OR paint_cd.paint_cd like '%'+@keyWord+'%'
OR modl.modl_nm like '%'+@keyWord+'%'
The query runs at 3secs.
Could I improve the query somehow?
I was thinking that, since I actually need a distinct set of clr_id's, I should somehow check only the clr_id's that don't have a match in any of the previous joins.

Hi everybody,
In SQL Server is there a quick way to automatically insert empty value instead of NULL? I have a long Insert-SQL command with LEFT JOIN and don't want to use ISNULL for every field.
Researching on this in the meantime myself and I believe there is no way.
Thanks in advance.

I am having an issue with large queries using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.2221.00 (X64).
I have a query with many INNER/LEFT OUTER/RIGHT OUTER joins which is taking very very very long to run. This looks exactly like this problem described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318530. However, this doc says it was fixed in SP1, which is already installed.
Basically I have a query:
SELECT ....
FROM TABLEA
INNER JOIN TABLEB ...
LEFT OUTER TABLEC...
LEFT OUTER TABLED...
RIGHT OUTER TABLEF...
LEFT OUTER TABLEJ..
LEFT OUTER TABLEH...
LEFT OUTER TABLEI...
RIGHT OUTER TABLEK...
LEFT OUTER TABLEM..
... 17 joined tables in all......
WHERE TABLEB.field1 = 'abc'
The query plan for this is using TABLEA as the "main" table and joining everything else to it. The problem is, TABLEA has 117 MILLION records. TABLEB has 10,000 records which match the WHERE. I stopped this query after it ran for 62 HOURS.
If I simply change the query to:
SELECT ....
FROM TABLEB
INNER JOIN TABLEA ...
LEFT OUTER TABLEC...
LEFT OUTER TABLED...
RIGHT OUTER TABLEF...
LEFT OUTER TABLEJ..
LEFT OUTER TABLEH...
LEFT OUTER TABLEI...
RIGHT OUTER TABLEK...
LEFT OUTER TABLEM..
... 17 joined tables in all......
WHERE TABLEB.field1 = 'abc'
The query runs in 15 mins. The query plan now uses TABLEB and the WHERE clause to join all the other tables.
The problem is, this query is generated from a report writter, and I have no control over the way it creates the SQL code.
Any ideas how I can fix this?

We have a view with many left joins. The original creators of this view might have been lazy or sloppy, I don't know. I have rewritten the query to proper inner joins where required and also nested left joins.
So rather then the following exemplary fragment
select <many items>
from A
left join B on B.id_A = A.id
left join C on C.id_B = B.idthis now looks like
select <many items>
from A
left join (B
join C on C.id_B = B.id
) on B.id_A = A.id
Compilation time of the original view was 18s, of the new rewritten view 4s. The performance of execution is also better (not counting the compile of course). The results of the query are identical. There are about 30 left joins in the original view.
I can imagine that the optimizer has difficulty with all these left joins. But 14s is quite a big difference. I haven't looked into detail in the execution plans yet. I noticed that in both cases the Reason for Early Termination of Statement Optimization was Time Out.

I was writing a query using both left outer join and inner join. And the query was ....
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
INNER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
[code]....
However ,the result that i got was correct.But when i did the same query using the left outer join in both the cases
i.e..
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
LEFT OUTER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
ON C.categoryid = P.categoryid)
ON
S.supplierid = P.supplierid
WHERE
S.country = N'Japan';
The result i got was same,i.e
supplier country productid productname unitprice categorynameSupplier QOVFD Japan 9 Product AOZBW 97.00 Meat/PoultrySupplier QOVFD Japan 10 Product YHXGE 31.00 SeafoodSupplier QOVFD Japan 74 Product BKAZJ 10.00 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 13 Product POXFU 6.00 SeafoodSupplier QWUSF Japan 14 Product PWCJB 23.25 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 15 Product KSZOI 15.50 CondimentsSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULLSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULL
and this time also i got the same result.My question is that is there any specific reason to use inner join when join the third table and not the left outer join.

Hi Guys,here is my story.
I have a table with values stored in it and the Code Column contains sets of values that need to be mapped to a single value.For example i want the values ALMW,ARBAC to map to AL ARB and the values ARBIT,ARBOP,ARBSC to map to CU ARB and A1JAN,A1FEB,A1MAR,A1APR,A1MAY,A1JUN should map to AL AVG.
The values under Code are already in a database table and the ones under New Code are the new mappings for the values under code and are not in the database.
This table is referenced by other tables for the Code and i want those references to be done to the New Code instead.How do i modify the existing table or design a new table to preserve the current Codes and also map them to the new Code.
Code New Code
ALMW AL ARB
ARBAC
ARBIT CU ARB
ARBOP
ARBSC
A1JAN AL AVG
A1FEB
A1MAR
A1APR
A1MAY
A1JUN
In god we trust,everything else we test.

Hi everyone,
So I have to export from a SQL 2005 table to a dBaseIV table using SSIS. Easy enough, however the catch is that the tables being exported will vary. I can send variables to the the package calling the sql table name and creating the DBF file with the same columns on the fly.
The problem is mapping the columns. From what I've been reading there is no way to alter the mapping in a package at runtime. I was hoping that there would be some sort of auto mapping setting that would match on the field names but I guess not. Anybody run in to this issue and have a work around? Thanks in advance....

I have a For Each Loop that iterates over a recordset stored in a variable. One of the columns in the recordset is type xml and I want to map it to a variable using Variable Mappings of the For Each Loop container. I am getting this error:
Error: 0xC001C012 at FELC Loop thru report defs: ForEach Variable Mapping number 4 to variable "User::Parameters_xml" cannot be applied.
I have tried changing the type of the Parameters_xml variable to Object and String, but I get the same error. Any ideas?

Hey all! I have a bunch of questions, but let's start with this one:
Incoming from my flat file, I have two columns:
employee_id
dept_id
These indicate who did the work, and for which department (people can work for more than one department). In my destination table, I have the following two columns:
employee_id_sales
employee_id_wrhs
I want to map the employee id either to employee_id_sales or employee_id_wrhs, depending on the dept_id from the flat file.
How do I specify conditional column mapping?
I'm really new to SSIS, so I might be missing something obvious.
Thanks!

I am developing a transformation component and I'd like the gui to feature one of the mapping controls that are used for mapping input columns to, for example, SQL Server database columns in the OLE Database Destintation component, among others. I cannot for the life of me discover what the control is called or even whether it is available for general use. Can anyone help me out? Sorry if this is OT but it seemed like the people here would be the most likely to know immediatelly what I was on about.
Thanks
Charlie.

Hi all,
I am transferring a huge Database running on PostgreSQL to SQL SERVER using SSIS. I have already mapped all the columns between source and target tables. Is it possible in SSIS to get a graphical diagram showing all the source and targets tables and its mapping?
Thanks in Advance,

Does anyone know how to get destination coulmns to show up in the advanced editor for a custom component? I have a custom flat file destination component that builds the output based on a specific layout. It works as long as the upstream column names match my output names. What I want is to allow non-matching columns to be mapped by the user as they can in a stock flat file destination. The closest that I have been able to come is to get the "column mappings" tab to show up and populate the "Available Input Columns" by setting ExternalmetadataColumnCollection.IsUsed to true on the input. The problem is that the "Available destination columns" box is always empty. I have tried the IsUsed property on the output and pretty much every other property that I could find. On the Input and Output properties all of my columns show up under the output as both External and Output columns. Is there a separate collection for "destination" columns that I can't find? It's getting a little frustrating, is this something that can be done or do I have to write a custom UI to make it happen?
Thanks!
Harry

I have a condition where if column5 is equal to 1 then put column6 into the destination column "dest6", if it is not equal to 1 then put column6 in destination column "dest7"
What is the best way to do this in SSIS?
If I have to use the conditional split then do I have to copy my complete mappings, exact change this one column?
Thank for the help this mapping will take me a long time!

Hi,
Is there a way to accomplish one- many or many -one or many - many column mappings in the SSIS data flow task or using any other tasks. We were able to do this in DTS Transform data task. Also is it possible to edit the mapping like:
dest column1 = Right(dest column1, 3)
Thanks.
