It will be part of the stored proc, but for now I couldn't even get it running in ssms. It will be two parameters/variables, one for order by column name and other for order by direction, i.e. desc or asc.I have tried following three ways, but none is working:
(1) order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID end desc case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID end asc
(2) order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID desc end case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID asc end
(3) ORDER BY CASE @Sort_by when '[A_ID]' then [A_ID] end Case @Sort_Dir when 'Desc' then desc end
This query brings back 2 rows for each record, one for each case statement. How can I change this to bring in the contsupp.notes for both types of data? Or could it be fixed in the joins?
select contact1.accountno, contact1.key5 as "Ch#", contact2.uexpsort as "Sort", contact1.company as "Church", contact1.contact as "Editor", contact1.phone1 as "Phone", contact2.uemerg as "Emergency", contact1.Address1 as "Address", contact1.city as "City", contact1.state as "State", contact1.zip as "Zip", contact2.ubulletnqt as "Qty", contact2.ubullcolor as "BullColor", contact2.ubarcode as "Barcode", contact2.udelivery as "Delivery", contact2.uoutputdev as "OutputDev", contact2.utimedeliv as "Time", contact2.ucolor as "DelivColor", contact2.ucollated as "Collated", contact2.ustapled as "Stapled", case when contsupp.contsupref = 'Delivery Notes' then contsupp.notes end as "Deliverynotes", case when contsupp.contsupref = 'Cover Change Slip' then contsupp.notes end as "CoverChangeSlip"
from Contact1 inner join contact2 on Contact1.Accountno = Contact2.Accountno inner join contsupp on Contact1.Accountno=Contsupp.Accountno where contact1.key5 not like '' and contsupp.contsupref='Delivery Notes' or contsupp.contsupref ='Cover Change Slip' order by contact1.key5
I know I should know the answer to this, but I just can't quite get the syntax down
Code: Select case when zipCode = '10185' Then 'Deliver' Else when zipCode = '2309' And paid = 'Yes' Then 'Deliver' Else When zipCode = '1291' And paid = 'Yes' Then 'Deliver' Else When zipCode = '88221' And paid = 'No' Then 'Hold' Else when zipCode = '34123' Then 'Deliver' End From postalDeliveryDatabase
So I'm thinking if I can have multiple statements within the CASE-THEN..or do I have to CASE out each individually? Kind of like this....
CASE WHEN [AddressType] = 'M' THEN [MailingAddress].[Address1] [MailingAddress].[Address2] [MailingAddress].[City] [MailingAddress].[State] [MailingAddress].[Zipcode] WHEN [AddressType] = 'D' THEN [DefaultAddress].[Address1] [DefaultAddress].[Address2] [DefaultAddress].[City] [DefaultAddress].[State] [DefaultAddress].[Zipcode]
I have a query with huge number of case statements. Basically I need to short this query with getting rid of these hundreds of CASE statements.
Because of the nature of the application I am not allowed to use a function, and just wondering if there is a possible way to rewrite this with COALESCE().
SELECT CASE WHEN A.[COL_1] LIKE '%cricket%' THEN 'ck' + ',' ELSE '' END + CASE WHEN A.[COL_1] LIKE '%soccer%' THEN 'sc' + ',' ELSE '' END + .... CASE WHEN A.[RESIUTIL_DESC] LIKE '%base%ball' THEN 'BB' + ',' ELSE '' END FROM TableName A
I'm unable to specify multiple columns in my order by statement if i use a case statement. Does anyone know why this is, or what syntax would make this work?
Thanks

Hi all, I am trying to access a sql database and if the userid exists in the database to the let me query another statement within an IF block to check another statement within the data, however I cannot seem to get it to work. I need something like sql.row.count != 0 within the 2nd IF statement below.

Hi, I need to check the existence of a row in a table. So i am using an if condition like set ANSI_NULLS ON set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON go
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CheckNOAStages] @NOAID int, @StageCode nchar(20) AS BEGIN

The stored proc is executing but on the Data Access Layer I have this Boolean exists = Convert.ToBoolean (Execute.ExecuteReader(spCollection, dbSQL));
Some how I am always getting false . How can I fix this? Thanks
I have a trigger that writes changes to an audit table. In the case of Updates, I only want to write out the fields that have actually changed. My code for COLUMNS_UPDATED evaluates to true for all varchar fields, even when they haven't changed. All other scenarios appear to be working correctly.
WHILE @field < @maxfield BEGIN SELECT @field = min(ORDINAL_POSITION) FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = @TableName AND ORDINAL_POSITION > @field SELECT @bit = (@field - 1 )% 8 + 1 SELECT @bit = power(2,@bit - 1) SELECT @char = ((@field - 1) / 8) + 1

I have a SQL database with an Access front end. In the database Ihave a read only and a read write role. When a read only user opensthe database I want all the fields on the form to be locked so thatthe user will not try to change data and get an error from the server.Right now I am doing that with a table. But it's a hassle to have tomaintain a table when if I could answer the question is the currentlylogged in user in the read write role?My server is running SQL Server 2000. So I was wondering if I couldwrite a function to do this? The function would take the role beingchecked as a text parameter and return true if the currently logged inuser is in that role or false if he/she isn't.
I have multiple viewers on a web page and initialy would like AsyncRendering = true on all viewers, so I can have the loading message. Once the user drill-through, I hide all other viewers and change to AsyncRendering = false, so the autosizing will work. But, with AsyncRendering = true (in code behind): private void SetDominateViewerProperties(ReportViewer rptViewer) { rptViewer.AsyncRendering = false; rptViewer.ShowToolBar = true; rptViewer.ZoomPercent = 100; rptViewer.Visible = true; } private void SetDefaultViewerProperties(ReportViewer rptViewer) { rptViewer.AsyncRendering = true; rptViewer.ShowToolBar = true; rptViewer.ZoomPercent = 100; rptViewer.Visible = true; } I have only one viewer showing, even though, I can see in debug that all viewers are set to visible. In SetDefaultViewerProperties, I change rendering to false, I get multiple viewers. Are there combinations of property values I need to set?
I have a cube that has a Dimension set up with several values some of which are bools. While Browsing in Excel or SSMS, two new values, when used as a filter shows (All) (Blank) and (True) for selections instead of (All) (True) and (False).
I have 2 piece of code designed to do the same thing. My problem is, i'm not getting the same results.
Code 1 where the results are correct
Code:
select Count(*) as TotalCount, Sum(DistAmt) as TotalSum from table1 inner join table2 on table2.id = table1.id where MailTypeID = 3 AND MailEventID = 2 and table1.IsActive = 1
code 2 - Y is correct, but Z is not, and not only is it not correct, but it is returning a number which equals more then the total rows from the table.
Code:
select Y = sum(case when mailtypeid = 3 and maileventid = 2 and IsActive = 1 then distamt else 0 end), Z = count(case when mailtypeid = 3 and maileventid = 2 and IsActive = 1 then 1 else 0 end) from table1 inner join table2 on table2.id = table1.id
Is there a way to use more criteria in a CASE statement other than CASE WHEN expression THEN value ELSE value END
I need to test if the count is greater than 0. If so, then perform the case statement, else return zeros. Currently there are entries where the values are blank. These blank values are causing errors in the application and unfortunately, I am not able to update these values.
So far I have the following, but I am getting an error stating "An aggregate may not appear in the WHERE clause unless it is in a subquery contained in a HAVING clause or select list, and the column being aggregated is an outer reference."
Thanks in advance!
Code:
IF @Qid = 4 SELECT @Exp as Status, COUNT(*) AS Total, @CourseID as CourseID,

END IF
FROM table1 A INNER JOIN table2 B ON A.SessionID = B.SessionID

Does the ELSE have to state "WHEN [BG_STATUS] <> 'Blocked' and [BG_STATUS] <> 'Closed', etc? Do I have to delineate for the ELSE statement everything that BG_STATUS is *not* equal to? Seems there ought to be a way but I can't find it.
SELECT BG_SEVERITY AS 'Severity', SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Blocked' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Blocked', SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Closed' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Closed', SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Customer Test' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Customer Test', SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Deferred' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Deferred',
I am creating a stored procedure which receives the following 4 variables. However, VacancySectorID is the only madatory variable.
@VacancySectorID int = NULL, (mandatory) @VacancyRegionID int = NULL, optional) @VacancyTypeID int = NULL, (optional) @VacancyKeywords nvarchar(64) = NULL, (optional)
My objective is to dynamically build the WHERE statement which in turn will return either one or more of the variables and the required data. The following code works for a single if else but it appears that you cannot have more than one if else statement.
Anyones input would be greatly appreciated.
SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Public_GetVacancyListingBySearchCriteria] ( @VacancySectorID int = NULL, @VacancyRegionID int = NULL, @VacancyTypeID int = NULL, @VacancyKeywords nvarchar(64) = NULL ) AS --SET NOCOUNT ON; IF @VacancySectorID IS NULL AND @VacancyRegionID Is NULL AND @VacancyTypeID IS NULL AND @VacancyKeywords IS NULL BEGIN SELECTviewVacancies.* FROMviewVacancies WHEREVacancyActive = 1 AND VacancySectorID = @VacancySectorID ORDER BYVacancyPosted DESC, VacancyTitle END ELSE BEGIN SELECTviewVacancies.* FROMviewVacancies WHEREVacancyActive = 1 ORDER BYVacancyPosted DESC, VacancyTitle END

I'm trying to make a view that uses organization name from one tableand contact first and last name from another table. In the view Ihave a field that I want to show Organization followed by the maincontact. Problem is if the organization field or name field is NULLthen it doesn't show anything. If one field is empty I still want itto show the other field in the table.Example:Org1--ContactOrg2--ContactOrg3 (Still shows org even without a contact name)Contact (Still shows contact even without an org name)Tried using a CASE statement but didn't work.
Does anyone know if there is a way to look at a value in a variable and based on that value run different Data Flow Tasks?
For example, let's say I have an SSIS package that contains a variable named Client and 3 separate Data Flow Tasks. I would like to do this: if Client = 1 then run Data Flow 1 else if Client = 2 then run Data Flow 2 else run Data Flow 3.
I'am trying to program a nested CASE statements (if this is not possible, does anyone have any alternate suggestions ?) and I'm getting syntax errors. The statement is:

Hi i am having some trouble with a nested case statement, what i want to do is set the value of a new column called Result depending on a series of case statements. Basically i want to check Test.Webstatus = 'Rd' and FinalResult = 'true' if this is true i want it to set the value in the Results field to ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay then go through all the limits fields adding either the value of the field or 'blank' onto the end of the value in the Results field, depending on if the limits field has Null or a value in it. Producing a value in the Results field similiar to: 10~kg:10:5:2:1 or 10~kg:blank:5:blank:1 etc
select ClientRef, Sample.WebStatus as SampleStatus, Analysis, FinalResult, Test.WebStatus, 'Result' = Case when Test.WebStatus = 'Rd' and FinalResult = 'true' then Case Case when UpperCriticalLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank' else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperCriticalLimit end Case when UpperWarningLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank' else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperWarningLimit end Case when LowerWarningLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank' else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperWarningLimit end Case when LowerCriticalLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank' else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + LowerCriticalLimit end end when FinalResult = 'false' then Null else Test.WebStatus from Job inner join sample on Job.JobID = Sample.JobID inner join Test on Sample.SampleID = Test.SampleID left join Result on Test.TestID = Result.TestID
Hi, I have this update statement that works, it updates the totalamount to calc amount, but I want to update totalamount only when it is not equal to calcamt.I have tried many things but in vain.Can some one please help me. How do i use case statements to update only when totalamount!=calcamt.
update c set totalamount= calcamt from Prepay c JOIN (select sum(amt) as calcamt, payid from pay group by payid )b ON b.payid= c.payid where c.cust_no='somenum'
Is it possible to use nested case statements in the SQL for your dataset when you are using Reporting Services? I keep getting an error saying "Unable to parse expression" and my report won't run.
I know this is quite a complex statement, so at first I was worried that maybe I had brackets in the wrong places, but I've been through the code and made sure that every opening bracket has an equivalent closing bracket, and everything appears to be OK in that respect. So I'm thinking that maybe the structure of my nested case statements is incorrect? The inner case statement is necessary to calculate whether a transaction is due, overdue or not due. The outer case statement depends on the result of the inner case statement.
Basically, we only want the calculations following the "THEN" in the outer case statement to be executed if the result of the inner case statement is "not due" and Field2 is greater than zero. If either of those criteria aren't met, then it should go straight to the ELSE NULL END statement and stop.
